What Gilles Frozen Custard is known for

Gilles is a Wisconsin frozen custard stand, opened by Paul Gilles in 1938 and still run by the Linscott family from the 1950s-era building on West Bluemound Road. Alongside cones, shakes, and a flavor of the day, the stand sells bulk custard and packaged treats and takes online orders for its drive-thru pickup window.
