Hey there, fellow adventurers! Katy Thompson here, your trusted travel agent from Gallivanters Vacations. Today, I’m super excited to share a real gem I recently discovered in Rogers, Arkansas: Flashback Pizza and Milkshakes! This place truly captures the essence of a bygone era, making it a must-visit when you’re exploring Northwest Arkansas.
Step Back in Time: The Flashback Vibe
From the moment you walk through the door, Flashback Pizza and Milkshakes transports you straight into the 1980s. The decor is absolutely spot-on, with vibrant neon signs, classic Nintendo games at your table, and memorabilia that will make you feel like you’ve stumbled onto a movie set. I just loved the attention to detail! The ambiance is so much fun and perfectly nails those retro vibes. You’ll find yourself humming classic tunes and reminiscing about mixtapes and shoulder pads.
A Taste of History (and Deliciousness!)
Flashback Pizza and Milkshakes isn’t just about the atmosphere; it also has a cool story. It all started when the owners, passionate about the 80s and great food, decided to create a place where families could enjoy delicious pizza and milkshakes in a fun, nostalgic setting. And let me tell you, they succeeded! They opened their doors to bring joy and incredible food to the Rogers community, and they’ve been a hit ever since.
The Menu: A Feast for All Ages
Let’s talk about the food, because, wow! Flashback Pizza and Milkshakes truly delivers.
Pizzas That Pop!
First, the pizza. Oh, the pizza! They serve up classic, hand-tossed pies with a perfectly crispy crust and generous toppings. You can choose from all your favorites, or even build your own masterpiece. For instance, I got radical with a chicken, onion, and mushroom pizza, that was totally awesome! Alan, spiced up his side with some jalapenos. The cheese was perfectly melted, the crust was crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, and the sauce had just the right tang. The names of their pizzas, like “the Swayze”, “the Italian Stallion”, and “the Weekend at Bernies”, will bring you back to the days of neon, big-hair bands, and 80’s fueled indulgence!
Milkshakes to Die For!
Next, their milkshakes are legendary. They offer a huge variety of flavors, from traditional vanilla and chocolate to more adventurous creations. Each one is thick, creamy, and topped with whipped cream and cherries. Therefore, it’s the ultimate sweet treat. You simply can’t leave without trying one, I sure couldn’t! While the “Cypress Hill” peanut butter and jelly whispered to me, I couldn’t resist the cookies and cream bliss of the “Depeche Mode” was calling my name. It was all I hoped it would be, yet I will answer the call of Cypress Hill on my next trip there.
Awesome Appetizers
Finally, don’t forget the appetizers! They have a fantastic selection to get your taste buds ready. We started with some Ted’s Garlic Knots and it did not disappoint. The table next to us had Falkor’s Spin-art dip and said they would highly recommend it.
Service with a Smile
The wait staff at Flashback Pizza and Milkshakes is truly amazing. Everyone is friendly, attentive, and clearly loves working there. They really worked to bring the charm of the 1980’s to life. Thus, the service only enhances the overall nostalgic charm of the place.
