Overview
JoJo's ShakeBAR, at ICON Park on International Drive, is a retro-diner throwback built around one glorious idea: over-the-top milkshakes, including grown-up boozy versions, alongside elevated comfort food. With a fun, nostalgic setting in the heart of the ICON Park attractions, it is one of the most enjoyable family meals on the strip.
Cuisine, atmosphere and best dishes
Cuisine: American diner / comfort food. Atmosphere: playful, retro and family-friendly, with a lively buzz. Best menu items: the signature milkshakes (candy-topped showstoppers, plus spiked versions for adults), burgers, and diner-style comfort classics. The shakes are the headline act and a genuine experience — come hungry and share.
Price, who it suits and family rating
Price: $$ (mid-range; the shakes are a notable add-on). Family rating: 5/5 — it is one of the best family spots on I-Drive, with the milkshakes delighting kids while adults can order the boozy versions. It pairs perfectly with an evening at ICON Park (The Wheel, SEA LIFE, Madame Tussauds).
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Spectacular, fun milkshakes (kids and adults).
- Great family atmosphere.
- Right at ICON Park for a combined night out.
- Solid comfort food alongside the shakes.
Cons:
- The food plays second fiddle to the shakes.
- Can be busy and buzzy.
- Shakes add up cost-wise.
Our recommendation
Orlando Compass recommendation: make it a family evening — ride The Wheel at ICON Park, then dinner and a shared, ridiculous milkshake at JoJo's. It is our pick for the most fun family meal on I-Drive. For a sit-down family Italian instead, see Mia's Italian Kitchen.
