The Fry Shoppe | Our Story

We Put Fries In The Spotlight
The Fry Shoppe started with one bold idea: make fries the star. Our founder, Wilson Santos, first discovered fries in cones with sauces, on his first visit to Amsterdam in 1994. After many follow up trips, he became addicted to the fry cones and always wanted to bring that concept to the States. Our Winter Park home brings that idea to life with a dedicated fry experience built around flavor and choice. Different fry sauces and a variety of fresh toppings on fry cones give a familiar favorite a new role on the menu. Come for the fries, then find another reason to come back.

A Fry Bar Built Around You
The fry bar starts with a simple question: how do you like your fries? Start with our extra crispy fries, then explore bold sauces and fresh-cut toppings to make it your own. Signature cones offer a starting point when you want to try our favorites. Or you can build your own cone and make it unique to your liking. Stick with what you like or switch things up, because variety is part of the experience.

Big Flavor Beyond The Fry Bar
Our love of bold flavor doesn’t stop at fries. Real beef smash burgers bring another favorite to the menu. Pair them with crispy or curly fries and a fry sauce you love or a combination you haven’t tried yet. Our refreshing ice cream floats give you a sweet way to finish the whole meal. From your first bite to your last sip, there’s room to build an order that feels like you.

Bold Flavor Starts With The Details
When fries take center stage, every topping and sauce has a part to play. We prepare meats and sauces in-house and use fresh-cut toppings to build our combinations. Those details bring texture, variety, and flavor to the food you choose. They also give our signature loaded fries their own character. It’s care you can appreciate whether you stick with a favorite or build something different.

A Winter Park Idea With Room To Grow
Our original shop on Semoran Boulevard is where The Fry Shoppe’s fry-first concept comes to life. We've proven the concept works. Now we’re inviting others to explore bringing that idea to their own communities. Franchise opportunities include brick-and-mortar locations and food trailers. Each offers a different format for sharing the bold flavor and customization at the heart of the brand. Visit our Franchise page to explore the presentations and learn more about the opportunity.
