This Bahama Buck's has the best service, and best snow cones I have had in a while. The drinks and snow cones didn't have to little or to much syrup, they were perfect. Th inside feels like childhood and is a beautiful setting. The bathrooms were clean and accessible. read more

1st I was in awww of all the flavors. It was my husband and I 1st time. Are granddaughters worked at one and new I would love it. So I signed up for the b/b gift and forgot. One day my husband and I where running errands and it popped up again and we went. Feel in love with the place they inside was even better the girl at the counter was great helped us out and gave us great suggestions. I must say it was the best time sit relax and enjoy the ambiance. Another cool part was the spoon changing colors coolest thing ever! Everyone needs to drop in at least once to try it,food is awesome and so was the owner. B/D girl Lisa sm blue coc, strawberry, strawberry daq and husband sm mango,banana, Thanks again!! read more

HEAD MY WARNING!!! If I could leave zero stars I would!! This place is terrible, today I went through the drive through for the first time and there was guy at the window who asked me to pull to the window I guess the speaker did not work. But he was still wearing the headset when I got there the man spoke no English, luckily I speak Spanish from there i ordered 2 drinks i order all the time, the total is normally coming out too $16 plus tax and everything. The man then asked me what size I wanted and normally i just say large he showed us the sizes so we asked how much the small was he turned to the monitor and took so long staring at the screen obviously not knowing how to work it. Then comes back and says $6 then changes it again saying $9 this man's shirt was dirty and unkept please don't come here it's very unprofessional they obviously did not train this man to do his job. !!! read more

Ordered through drive thru and service seem slow from the amount of people in line waiting. Ordered wedding cake/strawberry cheesecake with condensed milk. Checked in and received a free cream to redeem. Line is moving extremely slow and once I was at the window, showed the young man the free cream redemption, he redeem the whole snocone! Really grateful for the snocone! read more

I went today at 8:48 pm I understand the closing time was 9 but they are technically open . There was 3 cars in front of me while I'm waiting on the speaker to order the young lady asked me if I was picking up a Uber order, I responded no but I am just placing an order. She told me the car in front of me was the last car of the night. I thought that was rude since there were still people in front of me and they were still open !! Never coming here again ! Worst customer service ever !!! read more

Wait time is awful every time I'm here!!! It's like only 2 people ever working on a busy weekend day/night. WHY? Waited damn near 30mins for 2 snow cones that were ordered through the app! Snow cones are great, THE WAIT IS GARBAGE! read more

What can improve is this false advertising , I came in expecting a sonic spoon since Sonic was all over the place ... But no they tell me I'm 3 days late and they still have the Sonic things up , im already not feeling the best so my mom took me here to cheer me up , the place has very cute beachy themes with the Sonic stickers on the wall . The Sno cone I've gotten is very good like delicious but I'm still disappointed that I couldn't get that sonic spoon. read more

Bahama Buck's - Shaved Ice Near Me - Houston, Texas

Although the service was a little busy, the shaved ice was amazing! The flavor was incredible, and I'm definitely coming here every weekend now. It's my favorite spot to satisfy my sweet tooth! read more

Order is taken and we don't have any issues. Once I pull up to the window I am asked for my order. I tell them. They close the window and come back to ask again what my order is. I tell them again. Hand over my credit card I am charged and given a receipt with the correct order on it. At this point they have asked me a total of 3 times for my order. They come back 2 more times to ask my order. I tell them to look at the receipt because the order is correct on there. Finally get my order to find out they were ALL wrong. I paid for the Bahama Rama mama stuff Not a single one of the items we ordered came with it. It was not the regular powder like ice I get at other two locations I frequent. It was syrup with crushed ice. If you want to be disappointed this is the place to come. read more

Worst service ever from these seemingly drugged young adults. Whoever decided to hire and is allowing these extremely careless and rude employees to continue to work there, is probably a pushover. If manager sees on google that at least 40 recently posted one-star reviews in the last three months, state how the employees deliberately provide rude and slow service. They act as if they are trying to discourage customers from ever coming back, then he has the same mentality as those young adults. This manager has not done anything about this repetitive issue that's been going on for years based on google reviews, no point in ever giving them a first chance.

First of all: THERE NEEDS TO BE A RESPONSIBLE ADULT ON AT ALL TIMES. THESE KIDS DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING We walked in and ordered ... no problem. The cashier even let my boyfriend try out the Captain Crunch before ordering because it's an acquired taste apparently..... he was right. It was TRASH. We sat and waited.... and waited.... and waited some more. About 20 or so minutes go by and about 6 customers that came in after us, got their drinks. Where is ours? OH!! It was given to someone in the drive thru. Hmm... okay. So let's wait another 25 minutes ( was told it would only be 5 ) and another party of 4 got their order. Where is my drink?? OHH the new one was also passed to a car in the drive thru. Did I forget to mention another customers order was ALSO passed to a person in the drive thru but was rejected then they tried to pass it to the correct guy who then also rejected the touched snow cone ?? They called this the less messy, flat top option. I was not expecting a whole 1/3 less snow cone. GET SOME MANAGEMENT IN THERE AND MOP THE FLOORS!! read more

Update 7/17 It takes an entire 30 minutes to get your order correct. From the time we paid. At 10:15pm. 10:45. Now they mix the all the flavors and colors together. So it'll be just one blue color. Which we don't like that. I like to see the different colors and flavors I ordered. This time my son and I dine in. Planning to get a little math work done while enjoying his favorite treat. I only wish that the customer service was the same across the board. BreannaH. (Name on my receipt) & the lady who walked to the customer table (who, came AFTER me) to deliver their order (which the customer wasn't doing anything). However, other employees call out our order, repeatedly so we could STOP DOING OUR MATH WORK. To pick up our order which wasn't even ready at the same time. Plus my son drink didn't have enough syrup which cause us to return back to the counter. Ugh. read more

My husband and I went to this location because its closer to us which i have had a bad experience years ago but decided to go inside and give it another chance and upon entering there was a lot of cleaning going on the slim lady, assuming the owner because she was in cleaning clothes was counting change from tip jar and did not move over for the customer to order and barely spoke! The young girl at the register looked lost and didn't speak at all! My husband looking the menu and i am ready to order but i ended up standing there waiting for the owner to move so I could! We finally was able to place our order and as we waited we are smelling cleaning products and witnessing the Syrups on the floor and hearing the sticky floor being walked over! it was very disorganized behind the counter! So my husband got my size drink in a plain styrofoam cup and i got his size drink and the look nothing like the picture and i has to wipe his cup off! My drink tasted like watered down corn syrup with food coloring! I had to knock some of my ice off because it was plain and dry with zero flavor! It only got worse as i tried to eat more, it started tasting like the cleaning chemicals i was smelling! I dont know if it was because i had to smell all the products being used as we waited or what. My son asked to have it then threw it away after tasting it! Overall: Customer service: AWFUL! The Young workers are oblivious! And i dont even think they are there for a check! Atmosphere: needed organization! More cleaning! Revamping! And training! Quality control: WAYYY OFF! drinks uneven and flavorless and my ice tasted harsh! Whoever owns this location needs to start over from scratch!! And then hire people that actually want to work and take pride in it. Will not go back! read more

I am giving up on this location. I've tried it several times and it always disappoints. They never have enough staff working. They always make you wait so long, even in the drive-thru lane that by the time you get your stow cone is already melted. Somehow something is always broken down or they have some sort of issue with the credit card machine or their speakers. read more

Wait time is horrible! We were just told it's going to be 20 mins wait and are we cool with that? I'm not understanding why it's a wait time for some damn ice. But okay, no we are not cool with it. read more

When doing Keto it's hard to find "Keto Friendly" sweet treats. We had a coupon for BOGO half off so I looked on the website to see if they had sugar free options and they had plenty. I ordered the sugar free strawberry cheesecake...it was so beautiful when it came out, my mouth was watering because it looked so delicious.....despite the amazing presentation of my sugar free shave ice, it was a little disappointing. My smile soon became a frown (sighs)....I just could not get past the taste of the artificial sweetener. After a few bites I started to feel nauseous. Long story short, it wasn't for me. Service was ok, music and dancing coming from the young people who seem to enjoy their job. read more

All other locations open at 12 or 11:30 during the weekdays, opening at 1 pm makes no sense. This location has proven time and time again they cant keep up with the Bahama bucks name! read more

So close by but we go to other establishments because it's not worth the wait and hassle to get something that takes seconds at a truck . Good stuff but the people and effort at this location is the same as the other complaints. They need to rethink if this is the model they want Bettye could be way more successful if they had good help. read more

order# 73516441 ALSO- I should've read the reviews bc all the reviews on YELP within the past two months all say same thing. It's unfortunate to think all BB's hold the same expectations and customer service. We placed our order at 8:07, and although the cashier was quick to take our payment as soon as we drove up. We ended up waiting for over 25 minutes for our snow cones. To make matters worse, we were the only car at the drive-thru window during this time, and it seemed like we were being ignored while the three young workers were laughing and doing Lord knows what. Due to the excessive wait and the lack of attention to our order, we had no choice but to honk our horn and request a refund for our purchase. We were really looking forward to enjoying our snow cones, but the experience left us disappointed and frustrated. Additionally, while being ignored and waiting we witnessed someone inside arguing about a smoothie (she ended up leaving without it and the smoothie was left on the counter). We drove off exactly at 8:32 empty handed bc our snow cones still weren't ready. We were told the refund will get processed but obviously that won't take into effect instantly and will show in 3-4 business days. As loyal customers of Bahama Bucks, we have always appreciated the quality of your products and the friendly service provided. However, this recent incident has left a negative impression. read more

Terrible experience here. First the person taking orders sounded confused so we had to clearly repeat the order to them 3 different times. Ordered shaved ice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Neither of the shaved ice came with ice cream and as I was digging around looking for it I found a BUG in it which is straight up disgusting. I called and the employee said I put ice cream in don't worry about it and hung up on me. I drove back and got the manager to get a refund and show them that they served me something with a bug in it. And then instead of refunding me she charges me again like are you serious? How can you just continue to make this situation worse. I wasted 30 minutes of time here. The staff was rude and can't seem to do anything right. This place is absolute trash. read more

Bahama Buck's - the inside of a restaurant - Shaved Ice Near Me - Houston, Texas

Went here today and ordered two shaved ice - one in bomb pop flavor and the other in strawberry cheesecake, both topped off. My son was okay with his bomb pop flavor but expressed a snowcone truck we frequently visit is better. I on the other had was very disappointed with my order. I tasted no flavor of cheesecake only a nasty flavor of strawberry. I even had my son try it and his words were "what is this"!! I really wish I had tried it before I left because I would have requested a refund. I tried calling the number listed on the receipt for 20 minutes which was the time it took me to drive back home and throw my money in the trash! Don't see myself going back to Bahama Bucks anytime soon, will be a very last choice. read more

Bahama Buck's - the receipt for the restaurant - Shaved Ice Near Me - Houston, Texas

Let's start with pros: clean store and quality food Cons: VERY VERY VERY long wait if you order inside. I waited 30 minutes for my order and there were only 2 orders ahead of me! The servers completed the orders in the drive thru before they completed the in shop orders as I saw at least 8-9 cars go through the line before I got my order. If the manger is seeing this...consider revamping the order processing system :) read more

The drive through was slow to take my order, and after asking for a flat top they gave me the same size I ordered instead of the size up to accommodate for the cone. Even then, I'm glad I ended up with the smaller sizes because the shaved ice texture looked like something I'd get at a ball park, not the powder you expect from Bahama bucks. read more

This was a terrible experience. They seemed so unorganized. We had to wait a while and the flavors were just bad! I had a tamarindo and my husband a guava. They both tasted bad , but the guava supposedly natural even worse. read more

They have closed down the ability to walk in. They are only doing drive through orders. So anticipate waiting 45 minutes to an hour plus. read more

I use to love coming to this location but I think it's time to take my business elsewhere me and my family have been disappointed one too many time the young kids they hire are not making good snow cones at all it's just dry snow ice and half scoops of ice it's just not worth it anymore I gave them a few chances but i am done now read more

If I could leave negative stars I would. We ordered through the drive thru, waited for 45 minutes and never got our order. They took 5 minutes to take my order which was only 3 drinks and then we sat. My husband even went in to see what was going on and the place was a disaster. There were people inside waiting on orders. Three people working inside but only one person was doing anything. The floor was completely sticky. They shut the phone off because we tried calling originally to see what was going on and they told us they couldn't handle the influx of customers. This was by far the worst experience I have had anywhere in a long time. DO NOT COME HERE. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME HERE. Where is the supervisor? Where are the new owners at to fix these issues if there are so many negative reviews and complaints? read more

This is the absolute WORST Bahama Bucks! They constantly never have enough staff to handle the customers that have continuously. There is always a wait and the wait is ALWAYS super long. read more

This location is terrible. The young people who worked on Thursday 9/9/21 had a terrible attitude and took forever to take our order. We waited 5 minutes to give our order only to be told they weren't serving smothies anymore. This has happened multiple times. I guess they don't want our money. I'm sure they'll be fine without it. read more

Lack luster snow cones. I've had way better. Not worth the money. Will not purchase again.

I went there last week and the young lady at the window was so incredibly rude to me. I was just saying her this isn't the one that I got last week... it doesn't taste the same. Can someone remake it because it doesn't taste good. I've been getting snocones there with my family for years since they open. Never had anyone just continuously look at me like what the fuck do you want me to do? So I was like that's OK. Just give me my money back. You can have this back. That's never happened the whole time they've been there. I've also never asked to have my snowcone remade. Never 1 Time. The manager came over to return my money. he was nice so I said just make me a different flavor and I'll be fine. I still don't understand why the lady had attitude. She just was super argumentative with me. And that was the reason I said, give me my money back then. I would say it doesn't taste right can they make me a different on She was just staring me. There's nothing wrong with. I ask did they get new juice bc it doesn't taste right-it's not the same cream cycle juice? she still stares at me like what?? I'm not changing sooo I was like this little girl is the worst...like who raised you? Who hired you? I'm like how do you know if I'm telling you I just tasted it it doesn't taste good to me. It was the weirdest thing to me. I think she thought I was just gonna be like OK that's fine. Nope. She was a Spanish teen or early 20's and rude for no reason. I refuse to pay seven dollars for a snowcone that doesn't taste right. And I said to her -I was here earlier this week the guy that made it and tasted perfect read more
