Abbott’s Frozen Custard

It’s a sad week in Naples! Abbott’s Custard closed their doors for business. They served the most delicious, rich custard on the Avenue…

Good custard. Nice outdoor seating. Did not have all the specialty flavors mentioned in previous posts.

Forget ice cream, frozen custard is where its at.
Stumbled upon this place today and stuffed my self with some delicious custard. Tried the coconut and butter pecan, both awesome.
FYI, cash only

Rip off REPORT .Cash Only but feel free to use the in store ATM that charges you a extra fee! Smh

This was my virgin frozen custard experience and it won’t be my last. Wow, had the dark raspberry and I almost had to change my shorts. Love this stuff especially when it’s «hot as balls» outside. If it wasn’t so humid here, I’d consider moving into this custard stand. Finger Lickin’ Good!

Monkey buns topped with chocolate custard! Super friendly staff. Open till 10 pm. Remember to bring cash, no plastic accepted.

Banana and coconut frozen custard was amazing and they are super nice.

Went in to check this place out while visiting Naples. VERY busy and packed.
Lots of homemade goodies to purchase, such as jellies and fudge.
Definitely worth checking out!

Only place I know of that has frozen custard in Naples. Has nice outdoor seating great for people watching.

I’m not gonna lie. When we drove by this place earlier in the day and it was pointed out to me, I pretty much had my mind set on a gorgeous artisan gelato treat. When we strolled by post-​dinner and went in, all my previous thoughts went out the window. This joint smells like cinnamon and vanilla, and lots of it. Mmmmh.
So you’re greeted by these delicious smells, and then have to pass by freshly baked monkey bread, beautiful truffles and chocolate covered apples to finally reach the custard spot in the back of the store. Try to refrain from buying everything in sight immediately, and ask for some samples of custard flavors that appeal to you.
Spread over different visits we got and loved the cinnamon cake, fresh banana, black raspberry and butter pecan flavors. Of course these all depend on what you are in the mood for, but the cinnamon crumb cake custard with its little cake crumbs and (great quality!) cinnamon flavor has to be my winner. I think it may be the best frozen treat I have had. Wow– did I just say that?
The banana flavor definitely comes from fresh bananas, no artificial aftertaste to be found! Black raspberry is a very fresh and fruity alternative, and extremely well done. I don’t even know how to start explaining the butter pecan variety. This is creamy, sweet decadence in a cup.
I’m gonna sound like a total fattycake right now, but we eat an amazing amount of ice cream and frozen custard in particular, and Abbott’s does it so very, very well. Props to the creaminess and freshness of flavors. It is like sex in frozen form, and I urge you to go get some tonight!

My wife and I love custard we always get it when we hit the Jersey shore. This was one of the best we both ahd a medium cup and were def full by the end. We also had the monkey bread which was soft and delicious it was our first time. It ws like a cinnamon pretzel but in little pieces put together. Not only did we have leftovers we ate it for breakfast and it didnt get hard or stale as I thought. Try the Island gold treats as well that was def a pleasant surprise.

2 words… Monkey Bread…

Until today I had never tried frozen custard, but I’m ready to say that if you haven’t been to Abbot’s, then you haven’t been to Naples.
The custard is creamy but not heavy, very tasty but not too sweet, simply perfect. I tried the chocolate, the island rum and the capuccino. It really tastes like homemade custard, with real dairy and eggs.
They also have these AMAZING little cakes of different flavors (I tried cinnamon, maple and bacon, and key lime). They’re moist, sweet, crunchy and soft at the same time, and simply heavenly. My favorite was the cinnamon.
Please please go to Abbott’s Frozen Custard and get a little bit of everything, you won’t regret it.

All I can say is YUMMMY. I love frozen custard. Now I must admit I only tried one of thier flavors, the choloate with almonds. It was creamy smooth. Now for the bad part. The prices are pretty high compared to other frozen custard shops. The very small kiddy dish was $ 2.95 and the small dish was $ 3.95 if you want it on a cone or a specialty cone you can add some more money.
The fudge was a bit hard… not the best I have ever had. I give the fudge a 3 out of 5 and would not bother trying this again.
The Monkey bread looked good. They start at $ 5.00 each and you can add another $ 2.00 if you want it with ice cream. Looked like enough for 1 really hungry guy or for 2 regular people.

I’m from Rochester, NY so you know I had to get some Abbott’s after dinner.
Delicious as always. The cinnamon cake custard with the crumbles on top? I inhaled it.
They even sell Zweigles in here. Though I’m in Syracuse now, so I pledge allegiance to Hofmann’s now.

While my brain knows the difference between frozen custard and ice cream, I admit that my tastebuds do not discriminate between the two. Frozen custard may be slightly creamier than ice cream, but if you handed me a cup of it and said it was soft serve, I wouldn’t argue with you. And really at the end of the day, both are delicious examples of frozen dairy desserts, so the distinction between the two barely matters to me.
After the tragedy that was Regina’s, I decided I would let Naples redeem itself to me and try my very first frozen custard at Abbott’s. I opted for the chocolate almond, just a small cup, and it was wonderful. The chocolate flavor was smooth, and the custard itself was pleasantly sweet, but not overwhelming. The almonds were the real star as they were coarsely chopped and roasted and you could tell that they were high quality add ins. From the taste it was apparent that this frozen custard is made on site and isn’t pumped full of preservatives. Fat free it may not be, but delicious it is! My husband got a banana split with cinnamon and key lime pie custards… which were kind of weird together but delicious in their own right (and man was that key lime tart!).
Enjoyed the outdoor patio area very much as it’s a perfect place to eat your frozen treat in peace on a nice night. One thing to keep in mind is that like many places in Naples, this place is CASH ONLY but is well worth the inconvenience of having some actual cash money on hand.
