WOW! That’s all I can say. I had heard about the “custard” in Saint Louis, but I was wondering how good can this frozen treat be….
Mr. Wizard’s was one of the better frozen sweets I’ve had. They have custards, sundaes, and “concrete.” That last one is the same as their custard except the toppings are mixed into the middle of the custard. I imagine that’s how everyone wants it, anyways.
I got the “S’mores” concrete with a vanilla base, but my friends got some of the chocolate base custards. With a consistency somewhere between froyo and ice cream, it was thick enough where you felt the consistency, but not so thick that you had the struggle to scoop or bite it.
In terms of price, a “small” portion is fine for a nice small treat, but if there are two or more, I’d suggest a medium. It’s only a dollar or so more, but I’d say 3X as much custard. Definitely a value, but a large did not seem much bigger than a medium.
Overall, such a delicious frozen treat with a great price in a cool setting.
This place has become a staple for frozen custard in St. Louis. The custard has a great flavor and consistency to it, but the hours here are a bit irregular and don't necessarily follow the hours they advertise on their website. Reasonably priced!
My family and I come here all the time. If you like custard it is hard to beat them. The prices are amazing compared to other custard establishments. You can even order kiddie cones insanely cheap for the little ones. Definitely make this place a regular stop.
Don't waste your time at Andy's and Ted Drew's. The strawberry shortcake is to die for. Dog friendly!
I've been going to Mr. Wizard's for years and I love it! I can't handle the heavy custard at Ted Drew's..I always get frozen yogurt here. It really tastes like ice cream. The strawberry and brownie concrete (flaking on the name!) is my fave and my husband likes the Hawaiian one. Yummy! Please tip the teenagers working there, they deserve it! And no, my dog Kevin didn't get any but he did get his favorite treats when he got home. 😉
All I can say is WHOA! I usually don’t eat dairy, but I wanted to try this place because I drive past it all the time …. i tried the Hawaiian and it was thee best! Fresh coconut with the bananas - totally worth it!
Came here on June 30th an hour before closing. Decent line but it went quick, ordered the Strawberry Shortcake and Oreo. Solid but not the best custard in STL
There is something very special about that ice cream smooth tasty I think it's some of the best out there I drive all the way from 270 and 364 To get that ice cream
Went to Mr. Wizard's for the sugar free chocolate custard and was happy with the flavor and the service. I can't eat sugar so this to me is AWESOME! Thanks Mr. Wizard!

After multiple visits to Clementine's, I started really craving custard. A quick Google search yielded Mr. Wizard's Frozen Custard and Yogurt. I decided to drive to Maplewood to give it a try, and I am glad that I did.
On my first visit, I ordered a Vanilla Custard Cone. The custard was magical (bad pun-intended), and it had excellent sweetness and flavor. The cone was fresh and tasty too. I was also impressed with the portion size!
While perusing the menu at my first visit, I noticed that they offer Banana Pudding as an option for either a Concrete or Sundae. Naturally, I had to return the next week to try this.
I really enjoyed the Banana Pudding Concrete. The banana was sweet and ripe, and the vanilla wafers were fresh. These components complemented the custard nicely for a very tasty sweet treat.
Lastly, the staff was nice both times.
I am glad that I got to try Mr. Wizard's Frozen Custard and Yogurt. While I never go to Maplewood, I now have a magical (bad pun-intended, again) reason to return!
