Frozen Custard From Kopps Taken Home, Oak Creek, WI
No trip to Wisconsin is complete without frozen custard, so on the way back from New London, before going to Oak Creek so Amanda could change and go to work, we stopped off at Kopp’s. I’d never been there before, my frozen custard experiences have been limited to Culver’s, which is a larger chain and accessible through more of WI and the midwest. Kopp’s only has 3 locations. We went to the one in Greenfield.
The differences? Culver’s has kind of a homey feel where Kopp’s interior is really stark and more like a factory. And at Kopp’s there’s no dining area, just an outside park-like area where people sat on benches and ate. Culver’s is really well known for their ButterBurgers. At Kopp’s the burgers are good, but so huge, there’s no way you could take a whole one down and still have room for the frozen custard. Also, Culvers has a bigger menu than Kopp’s. Having said all that, Kopp’s was really, really good. Both places have a flavor of the day available, as well as chocolate and vanilla frozen custard. Kopp’s was started in the Metro-Milwaukee area so it’s more of a local gem, Culver’s was started in Sauk City, WI but is everywhere now, and has more of a big chain feel.
For dessert, instead of each getting a serving of the flavor of the day, Cookies & Cream, we decided to get a big container to take home and eat.
One other thing to note: Kopp’s frozen custard can be ordered online.
Next up, to check out Omega, another local favorite. Oh, and check out this site that lists all of the daily flavors at all of the Milwaukee-Metro area custard shops.
And finally, here’s a chart showing on a scale of all things ice cream, how I rank frozen custard.
