    Watermelon Mango Sunrise
    Jacob E.

    I'm from out of town and was craving any type of shaved ice but when I got here there were so many option that I just went for their fruit smoothies which was absolutely delicious. The staff were so incredibly nice and when my little brother asked for a specific color of umbrella on his shaved ice they happily gave it to him. The atmosphere is wonderful and the bathrooms are the cleanest I've seen in a restaurant in a while. Definitely give this place a shot if you crave anything from snow cones, smoothies, or even special sodas! I got that watermelon mango sunrise.

    First time trying this snowcone place. I love the shaved ice. It was alittle overwhelming for me with all the different flavors. Next time I'll definitely get a baby size I couldn't finish the regular size.

    This is the Cap'n Crunch Smoothie

    Their Cap'N Crunch Smoothie is too die for. Highly recommend this place. Service is great and they bring it to you which is nice. The atmosphere is very welcoming when you come into this place and the workers are very pretty and nice.

    Every Bahama Bucks is slightly different because they are franchised. I honestly didn't think I would like this one because it doesn't have a drive thru. But I was shocked to find how convenient it really is! It is really large and open! Not only do they have ample seating, they even have games that you can take to your table and play with the family! What a fun way to have a treat with the family! What I really LOVED was that they put a sugar free sticker on my Thin Ice snow cone so I never have to guess if they made it with regular or Thin Ice flavoring. It definitely puts my mind at ease and I really appreciate it! I'll admit they changed my mind and I will definitely be back! But I still wish they had the same Yelp check in offer as the Paseo location!

    Drinks are awesome, customer service is great! Owner is so friendly, you get points for more drinks as you buy, perfect for any occasion, you can build your own or get one of the many many delicious options, my go to is the mangonada or the BRM strawberry cheesecake with strawberry ice cream!!! Place is clean and cool!

    Signature cotton candy sno

    All the signature sno are very delicious. I recommend going topic creme. It's delicious. You can customize anything here. Even soda.

    Shaved ice with every flavor you could think of. My favorite is birthday cake which comes with sprinkles on top. My kids love the sour stuff. The prices are good & you can get a punch card which gets you one free item with 10 items bought. Adds up quick when you have kids. There are bOard games you can play in store. It's a nice family place. We love it here!

    What took me so long to find this awesome shave-ice spot?!?!?! I'm from HI and should've known better!! This is the real deal, very finely shaved snow cone made just the way you like (LOVE) it's almost creamy it'll make you dreamy My mini likes pink & blue cotton candy. I love my mango piña colada with ice cream on the bottom Not only they do the typical shave ice flavors but they do fancy shmancey stuff like caramel green apple or other seasonal stuff like pumpkin spice. They are not just a shave ice shop but have ice cream and blended drinks. Yum. The shop is set up like a surf lounge, where you and your family or friends can hang with your yummies and play boardgames that are available for your enjoyment. My mini and I LVE Bahama bucks!!

    Bruce is feeling my treat!

    I was having a sweet tooth attack and couldn't think of anything better than Bahama Buck's to sooth my crazing. I got my usual 3 flavour Cherry, Line and Blue Coconut and I was not disappointed. The staff is always friendly and attentive. I never feel rushed, the smell is amazing as soon as you walk in the building. The vibe with music is always has a tropical feel. Takes me back to Jamaica and the Bahamas. Every visit is always a pleasurable visit.

    Sno cones

    Kids loved the sno cones here Bahama Buck's has a large variety of flavors and different items you can enjoy on a hot summer day

    We were those people... walking in at 7:55 not knowing the place closed at 8. We felt horrible but everyone was so nice & ready to serve us! Definitely not the healthiest option for smoothies but it was really good.

    Great Customer Service!! The staff was friendly!
    Quincy J.

    Staff was super friendly. My girlfriend is currently on Keto where she can't have sugar. They have a good amount of options including sugar/carb free options. I went with the sour patch flavor with sour patch sauce. The sauce (cream) taste like ground up sour patch kids pretty spot on! The combo was tasty and enjoyable. I know it's just shaved ice but the overall experience was exceptional. I will definitely be back to explore more flavors. They have a punch card that after 10 punches you get anything free on the menu. The best selling point there is when it's under 40 you get two punches and when it's under 30 you get 3 punches. If this isn't a above average reward program I don't know what is. EAT MORE SNO!

    Empty house..still took 20 minutes to get 1 item
    Erin A.

    This used to be one of my favorites...but gave been continuously disappointed the last 5 or so times I visit. First, they started leaving the middle white, and I have to ask for extra syrup. Then, it gas increasingly taken more time to get orders filled. This last time I visited, I only ordered one sno, and it took over 20 minutes sincev4 people ordered in front of me. I spent thec20 minutes wondering why I bc saw 6 employees walking around, and only 1 making orders while 1 other ran out orders...and the other 4 seemed to just be walking back and forth to the back room, talking about what the "homies" did last night, standing watching the other 2 work, and replacing bottles in the holder half heartedly. Why even have 6 people working??? Unfirtunately I will be going to the Hawaii Shaved Ice on Carlisle instead. Too vad..good product, just crappy service.

    I love the concept of Bahama bucks, but I feel like for what you get. It is a lot more expensive than it should be.

The specialty coffees and beverages (Rhubarb Green Tea!) accompany the elegance of the menu. Artichoke Danish is pictured with a Boston Cream Pastry. But we seriously crave the exquisite Roman style "pizza" on focaccia, and the home-made grahams. While it is a walk-up shop, there are usually a couple available stools outside to enjoy your purchase on site. You can tell the staff are also in love with the menu - they are so friendly and knowledgable and happy to talk about their favorites, too. This is a business obviously grown from passion. We ADORE Burque Bakehouse.

I ordered many treats for myself and bestie. One pastry that caught my eye was the classic butter croissant dough with activated charcoal, glazed blood oranges, and blood orange curd. I'm not sure if this is only a seasonal item. The colors are beautiful! It was quite sweet, however the blood orange tartness aided in the flavors giving it a bit of tartness. The Boston Cream Cruffin looked mighty tasty. It's made with their signature croissant dough rolled up and filled with vanilla pastry cream and dipped in dark chocolate ganache. I'm having this for dessert tonight. Pumpkin bread Jam bun Espresso machine where they craft yummy drinks. I ordered an iced americano.
