Depending on your level of self control, you will either want to speed to Stamford, Connecticut as fast as you can, or delete it from your GPS to remove the temptation! The Elm Street Diner has been a family-owned staple since 1987. They immediately made a name for themselves with their warm, homemade cinnamon sugar donuts. But it wasn’t until they began combining those donuts with ice cream that the magic really happened.
The Famous Donut Sundae kicked it all off, sparking an incredibly diverse, creative and sugar high-inducing trend of the biggest, most elaborate themed milkshakes you have ever seen!
The menu offers 12 varieties that are available everyday, ranging from traditional diner staples like chocolate, vanilla and strawberry, to wacky extravagant creations like Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Rice Krispy Treat.
The Coconut Cream Pie milkshake features one of Elm Street’s other signature deserts atop a glass coated in toasted coconut, caramel sauce, whipped cream, and cherries.
The Nutella S’mores Shake boasts chocolate, toasted marshmallow, graham cracker crumble, chocolate chips and a signature Elm Street donut – oh, and Nutella, of course!
