Portable building that you drive up to. Friendly staff. The types of ice drink concoctions are clearly marked on the posted board by the drive up window. I was a bit shocked at the prices, coming from Joshua where they charge $1.50 for a small cup, however, Hawaiian Shaved ice small cup is one and a half times larger. I ordered black cherry and cherry, they were both good.
Unfortunately this is not the first time that we have had a bad experience here. Today however was pretty inexcusable. We came just after 6:00, there was a line at the drive through, so we walked up to the window instead. After over 10 minutes we noticed that nobody had come to the window by us or on the drive through side, and all of the cars that were in line had driven off. We knocked on the window, then after another couple of minutes we peered into the window we saw that there was no one inside. All of the open signs were on, the music was playing full blast, all of the lights were on, no indication of the location being closed. As we drove away we passed the drive through window and we saw a single, poorly handwritten sign on the drive through window that said “ be right back “. They couldn’t even be bothered to put a note on the walk up side. From the time that we pulled up at 6:03 until we left the parking lot was 6:26, and no staff was there. The only reason this place doesn’t get a 1 star is because they have a lot of flavor options, but past that, this is the worst snow cone location in Johnson County bar none.
I ordered a jumbo snow cone without the top so it wouldn’t spill on me — $5.50, and I added caramel for a total of $6. Not a big deal… if I had actually received a full snow cone. Unfortunately, the syrup barely covered the top half inch. After that, it was just a $5 cup of plain ice. After reading other reviews, it seems I’m not the only one this has happened to. If shorting customers on syrup is standard practice, that’s disappointing — and it’s why I won’t be back.
