Once the summer heat really sets in, there is always someone at this snow cone stand! We might be melting on the outside but we can stay cold on the inside with these perfectly fluffy snow cones. The kids I've seen working there are kind and patient with people's questions and quick with counting change -- it's cash-only here! This isn't the kind of snow cone stand where you hang out during the day -- you're in a parking lot with no tables and zero shade. This is literally just a little box of a building with a window -- a happy fortress of frozen treats in the middle of an asphalt desert. But people will kinda hang around in and outside of their cars after the sun goes down. I like to get the "teletubbies" specialty flavor which is pina colada and pineapple. I love a coconutty dessert (they have a sugar-free coconut syrup here that's really good). And then of course I like to add a little cream...! It's so summery and delicious. read more

I love this place never had a problem up until today....Idk if the lady was having a bad day but I asked for a snowcone with pickles ON THE SIDEEEE!!!!!!! I get my order and it!'s not to my satisfaction instead of the lady listening to me she proceeds to take my money and slam the window said "I was not clear on what I had asked for" when all she had too say was she didn't hear me correctly I actually apologized tried to be nice however it's.....like I would've been rude or in the wrong if I'd chucked it back at her give her the same energy in return...disclaimer I have a 5 year old who don't like pickles.... imagine walking inside with whatever that was in a cup.... but I chose to endure the rudeness from what was once great customer read more

Snowflake Factory - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Best in the area that I've had. Great favors and staff are so friendly. Great taste. Great variety of flavors.

I cant believe i passed this place at least twice a day for the last 6 years and never tried it!! I never though these snow cones were that good but now i see what the hype is about. First of all,,,********** CASH***********ONLY*********CASH ONLY**** They are located at the corner of the shopping strip next to the tattoo shop so once your in line is hard to back out because the set up funnels you into a one way. There is always a line to get snow cones and its usually 4-6 cars on a good day. Usually only about 2-3 cars are able to pull up into the drive through whiteout blocking the entrance ramp to the strip mall. So if you are about the 4th car and further up the line make sure you keep that space IN front of the entrance open or you might get hit by cars entering the lot. I really wish they would put it in another park of the parking lot to easy the congestion. They do have one picnic table where you can sit and enjoy the snow cone if its a nice day outside but in Texas that's never really the case. You can walk up to the stand and order at the window but it would be the same as waiting in your car. I normally go to Bahama Bucks for my snow cone needs but the collins location is the nearest to me. Now that i discover this place i will make it a priority to stop here before going to BB. What i was surprised by the most was the prices for their snow cones. You can get a medium for $2 and a small for $1, any additional add on's are only 50 cents. Going to BB I can easily spend about $4 for a baby size snow cone, you definitely get more bang for your buck here. I was also surprise by how soft the snow is, is almost as soft as the one from BB but way cheaper. The variety of flavor is good and I really enjoyed the mermaid with cream along with the jamaican-me-crazy flavor. The Dr Pepper flavor taste just like the real thing and i recommend getting the cream on that one too and giving it a few minute to kind of melt and you got yourself a better taste root-beer float type of snow cone. I will make sure to have cash on hand to stop by and try a new flavor next time I drive there. read more

They only accept CASH!! Don't want you to drive all the way over here and not have cash.I got a medium pickle snowcone with the pickle bits on top costing $3.35. They make them very big while also not being expensive. The service is a little slow, but it's no problem at all. Definitely worth the wait. Just letting y'all know it will take a little bit. The people are very nice as well. Will for sure come back. read more

This is a staple in Arlington. If you know, you know. The flavors are so tasty and they do not skimp on the juice! Don't miss out, add the cream to it - thank me later. The ice is smooth, not the think crunchy pieces so places serve. Note keep in mind they get busy, I mean busy. Get some gas and wait in line, it's still worth it. I like to go around 4:00 pm and it seems to not be as bad as later in the evening. However, I have never turned around - I have always waited because they are that good. read more

Snowflake Factory - Getting our snowcone fix - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Arlington, Texas

My family loves this place more than all the other shaved ice places nearby. Countless times of icy bliss here and only barely discovered sugarfree flavors that are pretty good too. Great service too! read more

Been coming here since I was a kid, love this place then and love it now. After all these years the quality is still the same and customer service is great. The ice is super soft and that's what kept us coming back. It's literally snow! If you're tired of crunching on ice, try snowflake factory!! read more

Snowflake Factory - Small Tiger blood w/ cream & vanilla w/cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I was referred here by friend last year and have been coming here ever since. I love the many different flavors and combinations that you can personalize your own snow cones. My favorite is the Sour Special with Green Apple & Black Cherry. There's a line when I go, but its all worth it. Customer service is A-1. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!! read more

My favorite snowcone place! Im not a big fan of snowcones that are crunchy with big chunks of ice so I absolutely love how smooth and creamy the snowcones are here. I know it's just a small little spot, but it's definitely worth checking it out! If you want a flavor suggestion, my absolute favorite is coconut with cream added to it! read more

Are you kidding me? There are many flavors to chose from and the prices are amazingly cheap. I was planning on getting the Pikachu flavor but ended up with the Tiger's blood because of a recommendation. The tiger's blood tasted like fruit punch which I really enjoy. A medium snow cone costs 2.00$ that I don't think can be beat anywhere else. Will be a regular here. read more

Snowflake Factory - So many flavors. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I come here several times a week. I have always gotten an awesome snow cone. Today was a bad day. The cherry juice was so watered down that I could barely taste any cherry flavor. Come on you guys. You can do better than this. read more

Snowflake Factory - a bowl of ice cream with a spoon sticking out of it - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Arlington, Texas

An Arlington staple, the Snowflake factory has, is, and will always be THE snow cone spot. From a young age, I can remember the anticipation of summer and the first snow cone of the season. Always a snowflake factory snow cone. To this day the quality and customer service is the same. Always greeted by friendly local high schoolers, it's a family friendly joint. You can either drive up (almost always a line) or park and walk up. Beware: it is cash only but the prices are reasonable and the snow cones are delicious! They were even open today! read more

Snowflake Factory - Sugar free root beer, wedding cake, coconut with cream, and strawberry shortcake - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Arlington, Texas

They have the worlds best snow ones. The ice is nice & soft & the flavors are delicious & strong. Be sure to add cream.

I like snowcones, but I don't LOVE snowcones. Aren't they are just ice and flavored syrup? Nothing special. Well, that whole attitude changed after a visit to Snowflake. Apparently, I have been slurping the wrong snowcones. I don't know why this place is different than any other shaved ice place, but one pina colada snowcone later and I'm completed infatuated. I cannot wait until they are open again this year. I will openly admit to stalking that little stand. I need my fix! It's also affordable and the staff is always pleasant. As far as local business in Arlington goes-- and it sounds ridiculous -- this is a hard one to beat in my book. It is perfect on those freaking hot 100+ degree summer days. Can you imagine anything better? read more

Oh Snowflake Factory, you've been at this same awkward/rundown strip center for at least 20 years. You're still serving the same basic snow cones given to you by some Arlington High School soon-to-be-senior for around $1.50. Ice + sugary syrup = awesome. It is what it is. It's not the end all/be all of snow cones but it's ice and sugar, therefore it's awesome and you can't mess it up. So when it is 175 degrees out with 140% humidity in Texas and you have a few bucks worth of loose change in your car, hit up Snowflake Factory on your way home. read more

Back when I lived near here, the snowflake factory commonly got my business. A hot date on a hot afternoon would include grabbing a snow cone here then walking over to the Tuesday Morning (God Rest its soul) and seeing what crap they had to offer there. There's nothing quite like being served by disinterested/attitudinal teenage girls (see Mama's Pizza). The offerings are your standard fare, with a few interesting (possibly dangerous?) choices like Tiger's Blood (oooh ssssscary,,,) and wedding cake (i threw some in my wife's face.....she didn't think it was funny). They do not skimp on the flavor, like some shops, so Snowflake factory I grant you 4 stars! read more

Snowflake is hands down one of my favorite snow cone places ever! Luckily I work in the area so after a rough, hot day at work I will often head to Snowflake to have a snow cone. The line is insane in the summer but it's totally worth the wait. The snow cones are a great mix of ice and syrup that neither overwhelms. All the employees are friendly and I just love Snowflake. Best (margarita flavored) snow cones in DFW! read more

Great snow cones ! Awesome flavors Cute little small place I live close to it , so I enjoy going here a lot when the weather is nice. Only downfall is lately I've been ordering a small size and they give me a child size it's happened twice already, but by the time I notice I've already drove off. I would just make sure your getting the right size because I payed for a small and got a child size TWICE read more

Delish! I tried the creamcicle...a little too sweet but would definitely get again :)

The prices are good. I like really fluffy ice but at this visit is was not so fluffy. I think they need to sharpen the blade on the machine. They were very generous with the syrup so next time I'll ask them to go a little lighter. This may not be the case for you. It's friendly place worth stopping by to cool down with an inexpensive treat. 7-21-15 I now give them 5 stars, I've been through a number of times since the dull blade day and it's been great every time. They are quick, tasty, and a solid value. I would live there during the summer if I could. read more

Best I have found in Arlington. The ice is shaved wry fine so it is nearly creamy, the syrup is perfect. I usually get the pichavhu who's is banana and pineapple or the tigers blood. Wife loves the cinnamon which is like a cold cup of red hots. read more

Been coming here since I was a kid. Always hit's the spot on a hot day. Jamaica me crazy is my favorite (raspberry and pina colada). My wife is a sucker for the strawberry cheesecake with cream(50cents extra). If your feeling dangerous get the plunge($1 extra) frozen yogurt in the bottom. The high school kids that work here are nice and the sometimes lengthy line moves pretty quick. read more

The best sugar-free snowcones in DFW, bar none. This place is still open (open from Mid-March until end of October) with pretty good hours. Cash only like most snowcone stands. read more

Hands down and spoons up...the best snow cone place! The dreamcicle with cream is the BOMB! They are always busy, sometimes 5-6 cars deep...but well worth the wait. Always have friendly people serving....great place. read more

This Place is really good.The ice is soft and they give you a lot of flavor and the right amount of ice.I love this place and I'm sure you will to read more

I went here today in the early evening. Drive thru line was very long & very slow. They also had a few people that talent to the walk up window. When I got there I placed my order and it did not take long to be made. That surprised me considering the cars ahead of me each only ordered 1 snowball & it took quite a while. Since it was my first time there I chose a basic/ordinary flavor. I went with the strawberry & I added cream. The taste was underwhelming. Not very much flavor and not sweet. It basically tasted like cream flavored ice. I may go back & try another flavor and hope it's better. read more

yeah its a cool place! nice people

My second favorite snow cone place. Smiling faces, fluffy ice, and my favorite snow cone flavor; dreamsicle with extra cream. The sizes are smaller and more expensive than other snow cone places I've been to but I still don't mind pocketing out the extra few cents. It's worth it in my opinion. read more

I've been going to this sno-cone stand for quite a few years now. My grandparents live near by and when I was younger, my grandad would always take me for a treat. Now I'm almost 19 & drive across town to this place whenever I need my sno-cone fix. My favorite flavors are banana and peach! The prices are fair and the people are generally nice. I think they should build one in southeast arlington! read more

Missing the Sno Hut, we went there for the first tme tonight. It was awesome!!! The ice is perfect - Mochachino is great. Highly recommend!!! read more

The line moved quickly. When I got to window they informed me that they don't accept debit cards. Had to go home and get cash from hubby. Went back and got my snow cone. It was good. At that point I was kinda annoyed but I will go back. Just make sure and bring cash. I never carry cash so that's going to steer me from making more frequent stops. I'm sure they lose tons of customers for not accepting cards. read more

When u are in the neigborhood u have to check out Snow Flake Factory!!!! They do not skimp out on the sugary syrup there is so much of the richy goodness!!!! The ice is shaved down to a fine thin ice that just is just unthinkable it is sooooo good!!!!! It is a fairly good price for a snowcone 2.50 for a medium snowcone!!! but some weird flavors like pickle juice and camo!!!!! But when it's 106 degrees outside and in Arlington,Texas make sure to stop bye the snowflake factory!!! read more

Not as great as I thought. More ice than flavor and not very friendly service. Didn't get a single hello or even a thank you.

My favorite kind is blue coconut with cream and I like this place because it's affordable and they customer service is great.
