    Small Bahama Mama and Sour Apple shaved ice
    Karen B.

    Glad to see they are still around! They have the best shaved ice around. They have so many flavors to choose from you can scan the menu and pre-order or order while you're there sitting in front of the fans. I even have the licious funnel cake with ice cream and street corn.

    We had a great experience at this locally owned snow cone stand. First of all, they offer the delicious, truly NOLA-style ice that melts in your mouth. This alone is enough reason to stop by. There was a large variety of flavor offerings, almost too many to choose from. I went with the orange creamsicle; it was great! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The owners often work there and they greet customers with a welcoming smile. There was a sufficient line when we visited during the summer months, but it moved pretty quickly. There was also a sun barrier set up and fans blowing to help keep us cool while waiting. Picnic tables are available enjoying your snow cone on site. This is a great place to stop for a snow cone or even a snack, as they also offer hotdogs, chips, etc.

    My favorite place to cool down. They have a variety of flavors and the prices aren't bad. You can get condensed milk or whipped cream added to any cup. I enjoyed the red velvet cake, which tasted just like it! They have a covered area with picking tables so that you can eat your snowball out of the sun. I really liked the fact they provided that.

    Can't miss it..

    THIS IS THE BEST SHAVED ICE EVER!!!!! if there is a line you still need to stop. The owners are so sweet and very nice. They always greet you with a smile. So many flavors to pick from but you have to try the green apple with carmel sauce. They also sell hot dog, chips and candy. If you are in the Forestdale area this is a must stop.

    Medium Tiger's Blood with Condensed Milk

    Fantastic!!!! Good service. Implemented social distancing and wearing masks. The snowball was amazing; it reminded me of the ones back home. Great prices and great sizes. Definitely recommend visiting here.

    Lord knows it's hot enough for some shaved ice in our lives!!  Get you some BOSS!!

    I only got 2 different flavors on my shaved iced today, but they let you get up to 3 choices and were not stingy with the cream either. Def worth the wait.

    If you've never had Shave Ice or you really love homemade ice cream you're in for a treat you won't…read morefind in any other ice cream shop around here! "Shave ice" is a bowl of ice cream topped with delectably shaven ice - not chunky like sno cones. The icey part is topped with your choice of flavor drizzled on it. A Snow Cap (condensed milk) is included as well. Most people have their Shave Ice with all of the above. It's a refreshing way to enjoy a lot of tasty ice cream with some very special extras. The owner has professional ice shaving machines used in Hawaii (we've been to Hawaii enough times to be hooked on the stuff ). If you're not interested in trying something new but you DO appreciate homemade ice cream, every ice cream at Oliwia's is homemade. It's only about 2 miles west of I-65 in downtown Hartselle. Use Yelp to find it!

    I was super excited when I saw reviews for a shaved ice place (shaved ice lover here) in Hartselle…read moreon our way north on I 65. We stopped on a Saturday evening. It's super bright and clean with ample tables and a couple of bars with stools along the windows. It was fairly busy but the line moved quickly. We each got a medium Shave Ice with a scoop of ice cream (lots of flavors to choose from), shaved ice, flavored syrup (lots of flavors of this as well!), and the "snow cap" (coconut flavored condensed milk topping). It was a little messy but yummy! The medium size was almost more than we could eat! It was a fun experience and an affordable way to be treated to a more unique dessert experience. The next time we're heading home from Birmingham I'll be exiting off I65 for Oliwia's Shave Ice! We're so glad we took a chance!
