Robert Is Here
South Florida’s most famous fruit stand — tropical milkshakes, exotic fruit, and a working farm experience.
Founded in 1959 and still family-run, Robert Is Here is part fruit stand, part roadside attraction, and part agritourism landmark. Visitors come for legendary milkshakes blended from tropical fruits like soursop, sapodilla, and key lime — and stay to wander the petting farm and produce stands.
QUICK HIGHLIGHTS

INSIDER TIPS
