Why it's worth checking out
Shakes Ice Cream Bar sits on Macrossan Street in Port Douglas, the relaxed tropical town north of Cairns. A strong 4.7 rating across 300 reviews — a remarkable score for that many — marks it as a genuine local favourite.
The appeal is sweet treats and a relaxed atmosphere — a fun spot for ice cream, shakes and something cool on a tropical day, perfect for families, couples and anyone with a sweet tooth. Port Douglas's central Macrossan Street, close to the marina and Four Mile Beach, makes it easy to fold a visit into a wider day out.
Menus, flavours and trading hours change over time, and the area gets busy in peak tourist periods. If you're after something particular or specific opening hours, it's worth confirming the current details directly before you head over.
