Swoop mouth-first onto a cold, peeled treat with today’s deal: for $5, you get $10 worth of frozen banana treats at Bananarchy on Lamar Boulevard. Today’s Groupon may be used over multiple visits.
Bananarchy operates on a deceptively simple principle: frozen bananas are dipped in the customer’s choice of 4 melted dippings, then coated in 1 of 11 delicious textured toppings. Dip your banana non-euphemistically in chocolate, vegan chocolate, peanut butter, or vanilla, and then coat it in one or more toppings, which range from M&Ms and Oreos to coconut, granola, toffee, and cinnamon. The result is a frozen treat perfect for gripping in a proletariat fist and for bombing one’s fascist innards with vitamin C. All bananas used by Bananarchy are fair-trade, unlike the bananas at Bananobjectivism, which are harvested directly from the hands of bawling, hungry babies. Prices usually range from $2.75 to $3.75 per treat, based on half or whole bananas, and specialty bananas can cost a bit more.
Whether Austinites are celebrating a summer of chaotic fun or trying to chicken-dance their career as a magician back to life, a frozen banana from Bananarchy gives them a big, yellow, potassium-rich finger with which to stick it to the Man.

About Bananarchy
Bananarchy operates on a deceptively simple principle: frozen, Turbana bananas are dipped in the customer’s choice of four melted dips and then coated in their choice of 11 toppings. Hundreds of combinations result. Patrons can opt for a wholesome snack, devouring a banana dipped in vegan chocolate and granola, or indulge in a satisfying dessert with a banana dipped in chocolate and coated with toffee, cookies, and M&M's.
In addition to offering a warm-weather alternative to snow cones or snowman tears, Bananarchy boasts a complex origin story that earned co-founder Laura Anderson a feature on McSweeney’s. In a Q&A session, she explains that the idea was inspired by the frozen banana stand on the TV show Arrested Development.
