Thick enough to stand a spoon in — and topped with a mini doughnut on the straw. Our Real Ice Cream Milkshakes are hand-crafted from real, scoopable ice cream (never powder, never soft-serve), blended thick and served in your choice of vanilla, strawberry, Oreo, and rotating Marcos Famous flavours. The signature touch every Edmontonian remembers.
A Marcos Famous milkshake is unmistakable. We use only real ice cream — the scoopable kind, not soft-serve or powder mix — and blend it thick the way milkshakes are meant to be. Every shake is finished with a miniature doughnut threaded onto the straw, a signature touch that has become an Edmonton calling card.
Choose from classic flavours like vanilla, strawberry, and Oreo, plus rotating seasonal options. Pair it with a Classic Donair, an Angus burger, or a Foot Long Hot Dog — or just stop in for the milkshake itself, the way many of our regulars do on Edmonton summer afternoons.
Real ice cream is the difference. Most fast-food shakes use powder mix or soft-serve — ours doesn't. The result is that classic, thick, scoopable consistency that takes effort to drink and is worth every second. The mini doughnut on the straw? That's just Marcos Famous being Marcos Famous.

"The milkshakes are unreal — thick, real ice cream, and the little doughnut on the straw is everything. Life-long Marcos Famous patron."
