Overview & Highlights

Welcome to Collins Dairy Treat, your go-to destination for mouthwatering takeout in the charming town of Albany, KY. Nestled at 109 Burkesville Rd, this family-run establishment has been a beloved local fixture since the 1960s, lovingly serving up comfort food that warms both the heart and the belly.

Step inside Collins Dairy Treat, and you’ll immediately feel the welcoming atmosphere. The friendly faces behind the counter are eager to serve, ensuring your experience here is as delightful as the food itself. The charm of this old-school diner is palpable; it’s a place where the community gathers, and you can sense the genuine pride the staff takes in every order they prepare.

The menu boasts a tantalizing selection of classic American fare, with a focus on burgers and hearty sides. Sink your teeth into the Homemade Burger, where you can taste the succulent beef cooked to perfection, or indulge in the Double Cheeseburger – a towering delight that promises to satisfy even the most ravenous of appetites. For a unique twist, try the Scrambled Burgers; their comforting flavor has left many customers raving, as noted by local foodies like Gary Cummings, who swears by the irresistible patties.

If you're in the mood for something crispy, the Fried Chicken and Chicken Strips are favorites among patrons, offering a delightful crunch with each bite.

As you enjoy your meal, don't forget to savor those homemade milkshakes – a highlight of the Collins experience! Customers like Ned Heidel have praised their shakes, recalling flavors that take them back in time, reminiscent of simpler days spent at classic diners.

While dining, keep in mind that Collins Dairy Treat embraces a cash-only policy, a nostalgic nod to its roots.

Great experience everyone was friendly food was made fresh and was the best deep fried hot dog I’ve tried thus far employees were very welcoming and friendly

Best little burgers ever, I stop every time I'm in Albany and get 8 of these burgers, my wife can eat 3-4 and I usually eat one of hers. This little place has been here since the 60s when it was owned by the Brown's. The burgers haven't changed except for the price. It is a got to stop place when you go by it.

The only thing I’ve ever ordered from there are the scrambled burgers and fries. They’re pretty good. Cash only so don’t roll up with a debit card and no . They ration the ketchup. You get one packet with your fries and if you want extra you gotta pay for it.

What a treat ! Old school burger that was perfect , corn nuggets that were cooked to order and the best peanut butter shake I’ve had in decades ! Well worth the trip !

Great local family run establishment. Good mnu, great milkshakes, freshly made, great service and option to eat outside.
