In the summertime, I make my own milk shakes... to include lots of ice cream, and rum. ;) :p :D
On topic, max brenner in NYC has to die for shakes.

Best milkshake ever - Mora's Ice Creamery on Bainbridge Island WA - the raspberry cheesecake and lemon heaven flavors are wonderful.

My all time favorite milkshake is made with Baskin Robbins' chocolate chip ice cream. This is the only one I've found so far that has such tiny chocolate pieces/shavings that you can actually drink them up through a straw. :D

Crown Candy Kitchen in St. Louis. It's in a questionable neighborhood but once you taste the goods, you understand why they are the only surviving business in the vicinity. It's family run and they make their own ice cream. Well worth ruining your diet! :p

Peter's Drive-In in Calgary ~ heaps of flavours (Mango is BEST!), inexpensive @ $4 CDN and your cheeks ache when you're finished. :p

Best milkshakes are the ones I can make myself. Usually I opt for various flavors of Breyer's with crunched up Oreos mixed in. Terribly unhealthy as I estimate I've made versions well in excess of 1,000 calories but I've never had better milkshakes at a restaurant.

Planet Hollywood - San Diego.
I'm not sure if it was the state of mind or the milkshake, but it was the first White Chocolate milkshake I'd ever had (I was 13, it was 1995) and it was just a memory I'll never forget.

It'll have to stay a memory...PH San Diego is gone. :)

It's hard to find milkshakes the way I like 'em, so I mostly make them myself.
The ideal milkshake is not a solid mass that clogs up your straw. It's thinner than what you get at the average drive in, but with lumps of ice cream.

Babcock Hall at the University of Wisconsin dairy farm.
Let's see...the school of dairy science at the largest public university in the dairy state. Think there's a reason why everybody else is vying for second best?

Ed Debevic's in Chicago used to serve a really good "hand mixed" one.
Steak and Shake would probably get my vote for chain fast food places.
Speaking of votes...."Ed's" also gets my vote for best slogan: "Eat and Get Out"

I like shakes from Ruby's Diner. They have a wide variety (I think 20 different shakes.) The peanut butter cup with malt added is my favorite!:p

When in Seattle, there's two places I want to stop at to get a shake.
Burger Express (http://www.yelp.com/biz/74wXIGsHAbXeTZl3J3OLqg) in Federal Way (so it's not right in Seattle, but it's really good).
Down in San Diego, I love Brians' Eatery's (http://www.sdreader.com/php/rrshow.php?id=BRIANS)malted chocolate shakes.
YUM!

I thought I was the only one! A Baskin Robbins chocolate malt made with Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream is excellent!

Best milkshakes I've had:
Chocolate brownie (I think) milkshake at a Haagen-Daaz near the main intersection in downtown Kyoto. I was in need of sugar and Japanese milk is thicker than what you find in the States (upwards of 4.5% milkfat in some brands) so coupled with the ice cream, it was heaven.
My consistent favorites are the cookies n' cream and Peachy Paterno milkshakes at the Penn State Creamery. I'm going to miss them now that I've moved to Texas.:( At least we have Blue Bell ice cream here, which helps!:D

Greetings and thanks for this very important thread helpful to Weight Watchers the world over ;)
Being a new San Diego resident I can say while In and Out and certainly puts out a good milkshake you might want to also check out "Hodads"
A very impressive milkshake.It was voted as the "Best of San Diego" in the most recent San Diego Magazine.I don't usully agree with their best of awards which are usually a narrow group of opinions.However as any taster knows all taste opinions are highly subjective.
Hodads certainly gets high marks IMO.
We went for their well known burgers but were far more impressed with the milkshakes.And the cool surfer/beach crowd.The lines to get in would probably keep me away however

I've had some decent ones at In N' Out as well. Oh how I miss them since they don't have any in Toronto. :(
