First time!
Kelsey A.

I went with my friend, Desi and her daughter and they live near one of these in Mesa. I liked it but I didn't like my flavor. I can see the potential and will totally be back. I got tiger's eye and it's just not a flavor I love but I like ice cream and slushies so I would get something like watermelon or something simple. The kiddo had so much fun eating hers so it was worth it.

Delicious treats & super friendly staff! They have the classics and so many new fun flavors including one with a popsicle that my kid picked out. Great for summer!

This is a busy Bahama Buck's it seems in this area for young families with kids. Tons of flavors to choose from the girls are friendly . I got a 12 oz pina colada with the vanilla ice cream on the bottom. It was as good as I remembered

Going to Bahama Buck's reminds me of when I was a kid in the Valley. However, now as an adult I find their shaved ice to be too sweet. This location's staff was not very friendly or knowledgeable, they did not provide particularly fast service and our table was sticky. Also, being that is was a Saturday night, the place was overrun with screaming children. It would be really nice if this location had a drive-thru like other BB locations I remember. One plus is that the ice is still super creamy as ever. Like revisiting favorite childhood cartoons, maybe some memories and place like Bahama Buck's are fonder if they stay in the past.

Nice place, friendly employees and very clean. We ordered quickly and we were told about a promotion to buy one get on free through the year, so we bought one of those since summer is here. Shaved ice came out fast and it was delicious! My husband's didn't have a lot of syrup toward the bottom third of his, but since I got ice cream in the bottom of mine I didn't have that issue. Great flavors and a place we love to go.

Finally tried out a Bahama Bucks and I was not disappointed! I ordered one of their fruit cups with vanilla ice cream on the bottom and it was fantastic! I had no idea they had those, as I thought it was only shaved ice and sodas. The strawberries and bananas were super fresh and the ice cream was SO good. My husband tried one of their sodas (cherry lime I think?) and he was pleased. I can't wait to come back for another fruit cup. This will definitely be a go-to spot for us during the heat of summer!

Beautiful presentation, atmosphere, and service. Not to mention it's delicious.

Wow! I am a big fan of snowcones and I'm willing to travel to a lot of places to try different ones. I've been to various Bahama Buck's locations and this one in particular has the best service that I've ever experienced, amazing presentation, and delicious snow. If you are needing to order in bulk they can accommodate that quickly and correctly. The store manager in particular is creative at finding solutions to any challenge and is able to juggle various tasks. I hope anyone who comes here at least tries adding some ice cream in the bottom of their snow cone. I personally recommend vanilla ice cream on the bottom with strawberry snow on top that is a personal favorite of mine. However every single flavor that I've tried here has been amazing.

Strawberry and vanilla with cream. Always get the cream.

My family totally loves Bahama Bucks. The shaved ice served here is more like snow than ice, super soft and chopped up really fine so that it melts in your mouth when you take a bite. There are about a zillion flavors to choose from so there should be something for everyone. And then there's cream you can get on top, which I thought I wouldn't like at first but just makes an already great product even tastier. Additionally, and I'm not sure if this is just this location or if others do this too, but I love that at this one there are palm trees outside with everyone's umbrellas from their snow cones stuck in them! So cute!

Novel Ice Cream is one of those spots that feels like a hidden gem--tucked away near the museum, it…read morealmost feels like you've discovered something special when you find it. And once you try it, you realize why it's so popular. The ice cream tastes incredibly fresh and homemade. My personal favorite is the honey lavender--it's perfectly balanced. The lavender flavor is distinct and aromatic without being overpowering, which is rare since lavender desserts can sometimes lean too subtle or too strong. It's clearly a well-loved place because there's usually a line, but it moves quickly, so the wait is never a big deal. And it's absolutely worth it for the dough melt--seriously, it's to die for. There's just something amazing about that combination of cold, creamy ice cream sandwiched inside a warm donut. On top of all that, the staff is always very friendly, which makes the experience even better. I will always recommend this place!

Their Phoenix location was voted #1 in Yelp's Top 100 Ice Cream Shops, so I wanted to check out…read moretheir Mesa location as closer to my house. My boyfriend and I are long distance, but when he was in town, this made for a perfect date night treat! Though the place has no interior seating and only one table, we quickly pivoted the plan to eat in my car. Definitely more of a grab and go place to plan a little differently next visit. And yes, next visit as we both loved what we ordered! My boyfriend wanted the Leslie Knope, but was advised it would take 5-10 minutes so he went with the Dough Melt. I took a bite of his, and it truly was heavenly to have ice cream between a deliciously warm glazed donut though I preferred my order. My scoop of chocolate was perfect for me as I don't like to go too overboard with the sweets! Definitely return here and recommend as the ice cream was very good. Hard for me to find chocolate ice cream that isn't just pure sugar, and tastes like chocolate. Novel hits the mark for me!
