Ike's Snowballs

Taking the street car to near the cemeteries and walking to City Park, we stopped at Ike's Snowballs, a small stand with a large outdoor patio. For just a few dollars, they sell snowballs (snow cones) in dozens of flavors from cream-based to other flavors like cherry and peach. My seven-year-old daughter loved the strawberry. I found the margarita one refreshing. The flavors are strong and sweet so a small is more than enough. Note: There aren't any public restrooms.

We came here for some snowballs. We went to another place down the street was all the doors were closed. Lucky for us Ike's was open. The customer service was great here. They were friendly and didn't take long to get our snowballs. I ordered their King Cake with condensed milk, my son ordered their Hurricane and my wife ordered their pina colada with condensed milk. They were all really delicious and can definitely see myself returning if I'm close by.

Snowballs were decent. Not the best nor the worst in NOLA. The ice was soft and the condensed milk added the perfect amount of sweetness. The employees were quick making our snowballs, and upon asking for my syrup, they immediately apologized and added more. Overall, Ike's is a solid snowball stand. Although I would not make an effort to go, if in the area and craving a snowball, I would definetly stop by.

I wish I could give this place ZERO stars. I'm a born and raised New Orleanian and let me just say this these people are selling gentrified snowballs.Now let me get into the service, flat out horrible. The workers all have sh*tty attitudes. I asked for sour spray on my snowball & I had to repeat myself twice bc she didn't know the menu. The cashier caught an attitude w me after I explained that there was sour spray right there on the menu. She told me "she just started working there".So another worker walks over to help her put the topping on the bill and tells her just charge them 75¢. So I asked them why was it 75¢ instead of 25¢ like on the menu and I pointed at it. A different lady annoyingly said to just take it off the bill.I don't understand what all the hostility was but all I wanted was a decent snowball w condensed milk & one w sour spray for the correct price ofc.The pricing was okay considering the prices of snowballs have been going up in the city and the snowballs were almost great but this experience was by far the worst.Also this is the smallest large cup I've ever had.

Lovely customer service!!!! I got a mango and passion fruit with condensed milk snowball it's perfect !!!! It's not too sweet which is great !

A friend of mine convinced me to come for dessert. I have driven by many times, just had not been in before. You go up to the window, order and pay. They will call out your name when your order is ready. You sit out at the picnic tables or take it to go. We both got the butterscotch sundae, and oh my goodness it was wonderful! The employee working was friendly. I look forward to coming back.

Great down home snowball stand in the heart of Nola. Great food. Great customer service. Great prices

Be prepared to wait, wait, and wait. This little snowball stand offers treats and snacks, however the operations make it good and not great. I imagine they could rake in tons more revenue if they where logistically sound. So be prepared to wait, wait, and wait. Another thing that boggles me is how clumsy the logistics are they have two windows but only use one for service, they could take orders from one and serve from another, this could possibly cut down on ticket times.

Horrible service, owner threatened and cursed me out over a simple mistake. This happened on Monday October 2nd, 2023. Do NOT visit this snowball place, mean, nasty owner and terrible service

Let's just say that I got more syrup than ice. Bruh moment. This place was made in he double hockey sticks.
