Andy’s Frozen Custard

 What’s better than ice cream? Well, frozen custard, of course! If you’re in the mood for the best-frozen custard in Cape, look no further than Andy’s Frozen Custard. The oldest of Andy’s Franchises, their Cape Girardeau location is just a short hop from campus and stays busy year-round. Very similar to ice cream - but creamier and made fresh hourly! - Andy’s frozen custard is very rich and decadent. They offer a full variety of treats from cones and sundaes to “jackhammers” and seasonal favorites like the Cookie Casanova Sundae or the “Words Can’t Describe It” Apple Pie Concrete. Want a classic combo? Try the signature Rowdy Redhawk Concrete – vanilla frozen custard blended with Oreo and strawberries – available only at the Cape location.

Want to try it before you buy it? Attend a SEMO basketball game - SEMO students get in free with their student ID - for a chance to get a free Andy’s cone. Our local Andy’s has partnered with Redhawks Basketball to play Wheel of Andy’s at every men’s and/or women’s basketball game. If the Redhawk's score is equal to or higher than the number spun on the wheel, you can redeem your game ticket for a free Andy’s cone after the game. It’s a nice way to have fun and a treat all for free!

Buddy’s Rolled Ice Cream

Prepare to be mesmerized as employees freeze, hand mix, and roll your dessert before your eyes.
