A FAN-favourite treat is making a long-awaited comeback – and there’s even a limited-time deal to sweeten the return.
Zaxbys, the popular American fast-food chain known for its chicken and sauces, is bringing back its hand-spun milkshakes after a seven-year break.

“After years of requests, these beloved treats will be rolling out at all Zaxbys locations throughout the summer to help mark the occasion in the most delicious way,” the company said in a statement.
The milkshakes are made with whole milk and real sugar, then topped with real whipped cream, colourful sprinkles, and a Maraschino cherry.
Four flavours will be available, Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, and Birthday Cake.
From 19 May to 1 June, Zaxbys is offering half-price shakes to celebrate the return.
The offer applies to all hand-spun, made-to-order milkshakes during the promotional period.
The shakes were once a staple on the menu, known for their thick, creamy texture and nostalgic appeal.
But in 2017, they were quietly discontinued, much to the disappointment of longtime fans.
Since then, social media has seen countless posts from customers asking for their return.
Some even started online petitions and comment threads, urging Zaxbys to bring them back.
Earlier this year, a limited trial was launched in Macon, Georgia, as part of a campaign with Visit Macon.
It invited locals and tourists to explore the area while enjoying the return of the sweet treat.
The trial was met with enthusiasm and quickly sparked rumours of a wider comeback.
The milkshakes also popped up briefly at select Atlanta locations in late 2024, further fuelling speculation that the chain was preparing for something bigger.
Now, with a full rollout underway, fans nationwide will have the chance to enjoy the shakes once again, not just for a limited time, but as a permanent fixture on the menu.
Zaxbys was founded in Statesboro, Georgia, in 1990 and has grown to over 900 locations across the US.
While it’s best known for its chicken finger meals and signature sauces, the chain has often added comfort food-inspired items that tap into classic American cravings.
The return of milkshakes aligns with a broader trend in fast food, where nostalgia-driven menu items continue to draw strong customer interest.
Whether you’re a long-time fan or trying them for the first time, this summer is the perfect chance to cool off with a hand-spun shake and take a sip down memory lane.
