Built in Northern Michigan. Built to last.

GigSnax started in an 18-acre patch of sugar maple woods in the Upper Peninsula — built from scratch by a founder who needed something he could run on his own terms, with his two sons beside him.

We are a craft drinks bar that brings summer to you. Made fresh, shaken to order. House-made 100% real fruit blends.

"This is delicious. Ten out of ten."

Made fresh. Shaken to order.
Every single time.

Fresh-smashed lemons or limes shaken over ice — a quenching summer favorite on its own, or shaken up with crushed cherry or pure raspberries. Our nod to Arnold Palmer — our very own A.P. Halvsie, fresh-brewed iced tea shaken together with fresh-squeezed lemonade. Take it to stratospheric levels with the addition of 100% pure raspberry for a raspberry A.P.

Our fresh wild blueberry lemonade is a peerless calling card at Michigan blueberry festivals — a signature combination that keeps people coming back all day long.

Hand-popped small batch kettle corn and seven classic snow cone flavors round out the experience.

This is GigSnax. show-n-smell.
