I am not a fan of shaved ice. That said, this place has it right. I did get the "regular" which is oddly way too much for one person. And yes I ate every bit of it. Next time I would order the small or perhaps give the cone a try. So far I'm a fan of this new place!! read more

Snowtime - Choco Butter Kisses snow. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

I saw the rave reviews about the place and decided to give it a shot, but was thoroughly disappointed. There was nothing special about the snow. It was very generic and nothing to rave about. The place is nice and clean and good to go for a quick fix, but, not one of the places I would drive out of my way to make a stop. Food was average and service was OK. Overall, nice but I would try other places, before finding my go to spot in AZ this summer time. read more

I loooved this place! The bingsu (snow) was absolutely to die for. I got the double Oreo and it was so good. It was huge- I could have split it with someone else! Just be aware- it is shaved milk! My dairy sensitive husband did not know this and did not have a happy tummy after but he said it was worth it. The taiyaki (fish cones) were also so yummy! We got the minis stuffed with custard. I got a cup of taro soft serve with black sesame and loved it. I will definitely be returning. All of the staff was also really nice and the restaurant was cute and clean. read more

Snowtime - Double Oreo - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

The taro soft serve was delicious! I had it in the fish cone which was soft yet crispy.

Got my Taiyaki ice cream fix. Basically a fresh made japanese style waffle made into a fish shape bottom filled with choice (red bean custard matcha). Also ice cream choice (could vary) And variety of toppings (2 included) I got my Tai Yaki filled with custard, swirl taro/vanilla ice cream with Taro flakes and sliced almonds. Ice cream was really good, liked the Taro flavor and the vanilla blend. So reminded me of the soft serve in Japan. The toppings were nice and subtle liked the smaller size more like crushed almonds matched well. Filling of custard was ok and waffle was good soft and chewy from the ice cream and the edges were nice and crisp. I usually don't eat too much ice cream but devoured that thing read more

Love me the Snowtime! Have to say Korean ice cream is new to me...but I can have a growth mindset and learn to appreciate new things. This is easy when it's delicious! What makes Snowtime different than all of the countless other ice cream shops? No ice cream but shaved milk instead with great toppings. It's got to be a tiny bit healthier than cream (let's me have more toppings) Service was perfect! Very kind counter staff explained to me the menu and help me with all of my questions. Order was exact. Store was spotless. Everyone was happy. My kind of place! read more

It was perfect for my midday snack! Service was excellent and thanked us for coming in read more

Such delicious dessert here! Snowtime is located on the opposite side of the plaza with Lee Lee's supermarket, and there's ample parking nearby. The space is big enough to take a medium to large size group (at least on a day when it's not crowded). On my first visit, I ordered a matcha taro swirl ice cream in a fish cone, filled with Nutella, and topped with Oreo crumbles and mochi. I also ordered the cheese, chocolate, and PB&J mini taiyakis. All of it was so tasty! The soft serve was sweet - but not too sweet, for all of the Asian aunties out there - and the texture of the taiyaki (both the fish cone and the minis) was crispy on the outside and chewy (in the mochi/rice flour kind of way, not in the undercooked way) on the inside. On my second visit, I customized a bingsu with coffee milk, tiramisu, condensed milk, mochi, and coffee jelly. The tiramisu chunks mixed with the coffee milk snow was AMAZING. It was a combo that obviously made sense, but I never knew I needed! Snowtime is going to stay on my regular rotation for Asian desserts in the East Valley. Run, don't walk, to get some soft serve and bingsu!! read more

Definitely recommend this place to satisfy your sweet tooth! read more

My teenager and I LOVE this place! We have never had a bad experience. We've always gotten the snows. She found her fave on her first try: Sweet Sunset. I have tried Double Oreo (LOVED IT!), Fruitilicious (It was ok), Tira-Miss-You (LOVED IT!) and a few bites of my teenager's Sweet Sunset (LOVED IT!). We've come during busy times and during slow times. No complaints of the busy times because it's completely understandable. The staff has always been nice and polite. They answered our questions during our first visit. The store is so cute and has a great ambiance. The reason for my review: whomever prepped the fruit for today did an AMAZING job. The mango and strawberries were chopped the perfect size! Bravo! read more

I have been visiting Snowtime for some time now. My latest visit was last night. The place itself is always kept clean, and there is plenty of indoor seating as well as a few tables outside. The service is always great. I usually get the fish cone, which is a delicious waffle like cone. You get to choose what flavor ice cream, inside filling, and toppings that you would like to add. Pictured is the fish cone with vanilla ice cream, custard filling, mochi and oreo crumbles for the toppings. Sooooo good! You will not regret giving this place a chance. read more

After weeks of craving taiyaki, I visited this place with my older sister and mother. We ordered three fishcones with softserve (1 matcha, 2 matcha-strawberry swirls) for ~$25 (including 15% tip). I found the strawberry to be really overpowering, and could not taste the matcha notes. The mini macaron and mini mochi toppings were so tasty + cute. And the taiyaki was underfilled (I expected more red beans) and slightly undercooked, but that's okay! If you're looking for an instagrammable treat on a hot, sunny day, it doesn't hurt to stop by. I wish I could comment on their (shaved ice dessert) but I unfortunately didn't try it! read more

Really good ice cream, and SNOWS. The Taro/Chocolate swirl, and Matcha was great in the fish cone. The Cons with getting the fish cone is that towards the end or if you're a slow eater. It will get messy, but it's not like a little bit of napkins can't help. It's not a con exactly but getting the fish cone ice cream is quite filling so be aware. If you're eating it right after a heavy dinner then you might not finish it. The Snow's we got were the EXPRES-SNOW, SWEET SUNSET AND CHOCO BUTTER KISS. All of them all really good! They do however melt kinda fast so that's a bit of a downside but worth it! I will say if you like coffee and I mean you like it a lot. You'll love the EXPRES-SNOW. It can be a bit too much overtime but it's still really good, but take this from someone who doesn't drink coffee regularly. The sizes though for the Snow's are HUGE! I shared one with my bf, we got a regular size. Thinking it would be a good size, and it was GIANT even for the two of us. So we had to get it to go cup. I think the regular size could feed 2-3 people. A large is like a for 4-6 people, and the small is like 1-2 people. The sizes aren't a con since you're getting what you paid for, but it's just something to be aware about when ordering. read more

They updated the menu board. I kinda liked the chalk type signage. Yet the new boards are a little easier to read. They have good fish shaped pancakes but their other offerings are also good. I like their shaved ice. I haven't tried their milk tea or teas. I should try them at some point. Toppings can be added: popping pearls: mango, strawberry, or jelly: lychee, mango, coffee. They also have espresso. These include americano with decaf available, cafe latte, mocha latte, caramel latte, vanilla latte, and affogato. I like that they put condensed milk on the shaved ice as one of the options. They have traditional Korean desserts including shaved ice, ice cream, drinks, and golden buns. The soft serve golden fish cones are delicious. They have about four rotating flavors served in a fish shaped waffle cone with fillings and toppings. I have had the vanilla, chocolate, taro, and matcha. You can choose fillings like nutella, custard, and red bean. Two toppings can be chosen from a large selection like matcha dust, cocoa dust, taro dust, soybean powder, black sesame, fruity pebbles, sliced almonds, coconut flakes, sprinkles, mini macaron, mini mochi, pocky, strawberry, oreo crumbs, graham crumbs. I like the mini macaroni and the mochi. I tried the fruit licious with seasonal fresh fruits. I also tried the sweet sunset with strawberries, mango, and strawberry puree. read more

Snowtime - Tiramisu snow and vanilla soft serve - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Protip: The snows are great, but can be overly sweet so be slow with the condensed milk! Highlights: I was obsessed with this place when they first opened. I think I've tried almost every snow they offer. I went again after COVID-19 and found the snow to be too sweet. I was surprised because my friends and I used to be able to eat two larges without blinking an eye, but maybe my taste buds have just changed. Taiyaki dough mixture is pretty good - soft and chewy, but crispy on the outside. Mochi topping is very soft. Lowlights: I tried the soft serve on a different visit since the snows were too sweet and I was pretty disappointed. They just didn't taste like anything at all except for soft serve. Totally lacking in flavor and they are pretty light on the "free two toppings" as well. I ordered the sliced almonds, but they barely give any and it's more like diced almonds. read more

Snowtime was cool! I visited the new HMart and found this in their food court all the way in the back. They have a bunch of treats ranging from shaved snow to gold fish buns. I've been twice and both times I've gotten their soft serve on a fish cone. It comes out so pretty and cool! They also allow one topping to add on it. The cone itself is delicious, very light vanilla flavor, and complements the soft serve well. I will for sure be back when I'm in the area! read more

"Today's good mood is sponsored by Snowtime" Forget what you think you know about shaved ice- Korean shaved ice, also known as bingsu/bingsu- is unlike Bahama Bucks or traditional shaved ice. As many reviewers have mentioned, the shaved ice at Snowtime is truly snow-like in its' texture and aptly named. Tony V. describes it best- it melts in your mouth and the best part is you won't get a brain freeze! Every flavor is wonderful- but I usually opt for sweet sunset with mangos and strawberries or fruitilicious which is made with fresh fruit like apples and grapes. It's the perfect blend of sweet but not too sweet. For sweet tooth lovers, the Tira Miss You and Choco butter kisses are sweeter and richer. Customer service is excellent. The owner is a cute little ajumma who is always friendly and in the happiest mood. I ADORE Snowtime and I'm so excited that they have opened a second location inside of H Mart which is considerably closer to me. Be sure to check the hours though, I believe the second location's hours are 11- 7:30. If I haven't made it clear by now, you ABSOLUTELY NEED TO TRY SNOWTIME!! read more

Probably one of the best dessert places I've had in a really long time! Location: Snowtime is conveniently located in a plaza with plenty of parking. I saw they also have numerous locations and were also recommended to me when I looked up places to visit in Arizona! Staff: Service was amazing. The sweetest, most attentive, friendly lady took our order and another staff member quickly made it. The staff would constantly come around cleaning, too! I personally think this is so important especially at dessert stores. Nobody likes sticky tables! Food: Their Korean shaved ice is not to be missed! Personally I love injeolmi so we opted for Gold Dust. The name is definitely on par. Their fish cones were also SO good. I'm not too big of a fan on overly sweet treats but this hits the spot so well. Overall if I lived closer, I'd be a more frequent customer. Please open one in California!! To all folks nearby, would highly recommend!! read more

Snowtime is one of my favorite AZ Korean desert places! Their Bungeo-ppang in my opinion is the best as it's crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. I usually add the rest bean paste on the inside and add it with my favorite soft serve! I love that they change it up for their swirl choices, so sometimes I can do the vanilla & taro combo! The ambiance is really cute & you can tell it has been given care as a family owned business. The owner is there all the time, even though she doesn't need to be- which shows how much she cares about the success about her business. It's a great place to get soft serve, Bingsu, or maybe a Goguma (sweet potato) latte! Additionally, the workers are constantly cleaning and wiping down tables which is a big plus for me since I think cleanliness in an establishment is extremely important. Photos and videos don't do this place justice - so if you're in the mood for a Korean delicacy, I recommend you checking this place out! read more

Snowtime - Matcha swirl with Strawberry and mochi toppings! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

NEVER DISAPPOINTED It is located in the Chandler Lee Lee's plaza, right on the corner next to Gogi. The people who work here are SO kind, helpful, and patient. Just the atmosphere is very inviting and welcoming. They're known for their instagramable soft serve ice cream in a fish cone with toppings. Its similar to Somi Somi in California, but not quite the same. But definitely a 2nd runner up for something in AZ. You can buy everything separate if you wanted to as well. The soft serve is so smooth and full of flavor. My husband loves just the fish pancakes. They sell 3 mini ones for a few dollars. What I also love about this place is that they serve bingsoo. If you don't know what that is, its the asian equivalent of shaved ice. You choose the flavor and top it with fruits, condensed milk, pocky etc. Such a cute perfect place just to relax and enjoy something sweet and cold! read more

NOTE: This location DOES NOT HAVE BOBA! I was caught off guard when I tried to order a milk tea with boba & was politely informed they don't have boba (they do at their H Mart location). Now that that's out of the way, let's talk about all the positives! I highly recommend coming here for your dessert fix!

My family and I were in the area and wanted to grab some ice cream...especially during this crazy heat. Since we were near Lee Lee's, we saw Snowtime and stopped by. Dessert/Drink (3/5): For dessert, we all got a fish cone. For mine, I decided to try the matcha and taro swirl with fruity pebbles and coconut sprinkles. I also decided to try out the iced yuzu green tea. The fish cone was freshly made so it was nice, crispy, and warm! Super crunch on the outside yet so soft and custardy on the inside. The ice cream was super creamy and smooth. Both of the ice cream flavors weren't too sweet and I found it to be just right. Here's the best part: the taiyaki fish cone options allows you to choose from different fillings (Nutella, custard, red bean paste, and etc), different ice cream flavors (can pick up to 2), and 2 toppings. For the drink, the yuzu was very subtle so I found it to be quite bland. I was definitely expecting more yuzu flavor; however, it did quenched my thirst. Atmosphere (5/5): The establishment was super clean and had spacious seating ranging from short tables to long tables. They even had outdoor seating if you like to seat outside. The decor was pretty good! It was very cute. I think my favorite part would be the giant menu haha. It had some cute drawings on it and was very easy to read if you wanted a bigger menu. Service (4/5): Service was alright. Nothing bad but nothing spectacular. We came in and were greeted. Got our order taken and just waited to get out goodies. Although, the wait time for our drink and dessert was pretty fast so definitely love that aspect. Overall, not a bad experience. The taikyaki fish cone was absolutely delicious; however, the drinks could be better. Granted, maybe it was just my drink haha. read more

I had the shaved ice and it was just what I've been wanting since visiting a place like this in San Diego.

I love coming here whenever we're in the area to get their snow. I don't typically consider cold foods to be comfort food, but their snow is comfort food to me. Their snow is just so soft and tender with just the perfect amount of creaminess to complement whatever toppings you like. I typically get the gold dust; it's the classic Asian combination of flavors with the sweetened condensed milk and homemade red beans. Love the kinako powder. The matcha flavor in the matcha love is assertive and does not disappoint. We typically get the small size which is substantial. You'd think snow wouldn't be very filling, but with the scoop of ice cream and toppings it's a good sized dessert. read more

The snow and fish cones at snow time are some of the best around. They pack a lot of flavor into their desserts for real.
