Whit's Frozen Custard of Mandarin — Restaurant in Jacksonville

Local franchisee of Whit’s Frozen Custard. The company opened its first location on March 3, 2003, in Granville, Ohio, the company now has more than 66 locations in Six States.

Moving from the New York metropolitan area to Jacksonville Florida I had a difficult time finding many food items I grew up on. One thing I really loved as a child (and as an adult), was frozen custard! That rich and creamy flavor was 10 times better than any brand of ice cream you can ever buy.

Occasionally searching the web I finally found a Custard Stand an Orange Park. It was great but it only lasted about a year and a half and went out of business. My quest began again. Finally about a year ago I found Whit's Frozen Custard in Mandarin. This place is great! The place is always clean, the employees are friendly and they have a different flavored of custard everyday. If you think you've eaten the best ice cream weather from a ice cream shop or a grocery store, you need to try this place!

I give them a 98 out of 100 because I'm still waiting for them to make pistachio Frozen Custard!

I've been by there but I've never had the custard there. There used to be a peterbrooke chocolate place there. Peter broke chocolate used to give coupons and teal deals which were offered to season ticket holders of the jaguars. I went in there once to use one of their coupons which was $25 off and they purchased over $26. And they just happened to have a box of chocolates for $27. I went in there to buy that box of chocolates and the people behind the counter could not concede what the coupon was for I went back and forth with them a lot of times and they tried to give me that garbage chocolate covered popcorn. I got so upset I actually bought what they gave me went back home figured out what was going on called them back and they gave me attitude. So I said I'm sowing a seed I hope this will get back to you. Guess what it did Peter broke is no longer there. This is about 4 or 5 years ago and it kind of looks like it's happening with all peterbrooke chocolates. I'm wondering how long they're going to stick around,. Are they publicly traded? I'm tempted to short them even though I've never shorted a stock in my life. I'm willing to go off that sewing the seed thing and put God's word to the test. Seems to be...

I love this location. It’s pretty far out of our way and we definitely have closer locations to us than mandarin. But, if you ever go in when Leiko, Patrick, and Drew are working, you will understand why we drive an extra 10 miles to go here. These three will blow you away with how friendly they are, how clean they keep the store, their amazing customer service skills, and their ability to keep our over dramatic toddler laughing. As a parent, I can only hope that my kids grow up to be as hard working and caring as Leiko and Drew. I can honestly say, this location could have the worst ice cream and we would still come here just for these three amazing employees. Thankfully, they actually have the best ice cream in all of Jacksonville and...
