Check out the milkshakes at these Victoria eateries
This Victoria favourite has the lineups to prove it, but at least you have a lovely view of the parliament building across the street while you wait. Enjoy an authentic old-fashioned milkshake made with locally made Island Farms hard ice cream, milk, syrup and a glorious crown of whipped cream. Choose from tempting flavours like Vanilla Bean, Double Chocolate Extreme, Caramel Cloud, Strawberry Dream and Old Fashioned Root Beer. For an extra dollar you can add malt powder to transform your milkshake into a malted, or bananas to turn it into a "chimp."

Where to get Victoria's best ice cream
Down on Government Street, across from the Empress Hotel, lies the quaint old-fashioned Soda Shoppe. Step inside and allow yourself to be whisked away to yesteryear as their talented baristas whip you up a wonderful frozen confection. Decked out in striped aprons and hats, these talented people can create anything from a brown cow to a giant banana split. Feeling extra peckish? Try matching one of their milkshakes with a fabulous hot dog from Dog Gone It next door!
