Connie's Frozen Custard
12545 Jones Road
Houston doesn't have many custard joints. So when you're in the mood for a smooth, air-free custard, choices are few. Sonics and Dairy Queen will do in a pinch, but what if you want the real thing?
Head out the BFE and check out this yellow store front. Connie's claims to make custard every hour. There isn't any seating so hang out on the small lawn out front and let the custard melt down your cone as you try to beat the sun in taking down some deliciousness.
If you want to take some home, Connie's sells a cold hard hunk of custard that will last about an hour in an air-conditioned car. Custard isn't the same unless it's just above the temperature before it melts, so be forewarned...take-home custard won't taste as good.

I actually live in Florida. I'm a auto mechanic myself. I started working on Hummer engines and attended a Hummer convention in Houston. I must say Connie's custard was a big hit for me and my crew. Cheers to Connie!

I am not much for one to eat a lot of custard but when I was passing through I had to stop by Connie's and see what all the hype was about. Everything I heard was true.

Not only is the frozen custard awesome, they now have benches out front to set down and relax while enjoying your treat!! A must try on the NW side of Houston and the menu is endless.....
