Ice cream and chocolate stuffed with swirl + condensed milk on top
Jessica T.

I cannot believe I've only recently discovered Shake Shack. Apparently, I've been missing out! I accidentally found this place near our new subdivision. Major bonus points to them for being open 7 days a week until 7 PM (unless it's storming). It's hard to find a snowball stand open on a Sunday! It's also hard to find a snowball stand with as many offerings as Sweet Shack. I love that they have chocolate, vanilla and swirl soft serve because I always stuff my snowballs with the swirl combination when it's available! This is also one of the cheapest snowball stands I've ever come across. A small size will run a few dollars but the portion seems more like a large size to me. Thanks for being there for me throughout many cravings, Sweet Shack!

Snowballs

Loved the ice. It was nice and soft, melts in your mouth and NOT crunchy. Good flavors..not overly sweet (which is a good thing in our opinion). The entire family loved their snowballs.

Most flavors I've ever seen

Hands down the best snowballs on the Westbank. This place consistently has the best flavors, prices and friendliest employees. I can't comment on any of the food (standard concession stand candy and nachos etc) but this is the ONLY snowball stand I've gone to for years and the DRIVE THRU has a lot to do with that! Keep it up y'all!

Bubblegum!

I'm always on the hunt for cool things on the Westbank and I finally tracked down this cool snowball stand. They have all the usual snowball flavors. I got my usual, bubblegum. I know. I am super predictable and boring but I like what I like. Besides snowballs, this place also has hot dogs and other non sweet treats, making it a great place to bring kids if you want to get them out of the house. My favorite part of the whole operation is probably the fact that it has a drive thru. Super convenient on hot days when you don't want to leave the comfort of the car's air conditioning.

What what?! A drive thru snowball shack?! I'm in love... Oh me geeeeee! I always get the same thing, creature of habit, I get a dreamsicle with condensed milk and it was sooooo good. I will admit, I'm lazy and hate being hot so having a drive thru where I don't have to wait in the heat is a major plus for me... This is my new snowball spot for sure! I'll drive the extra distance to not have to wait in this awful Louisiana summer heat ;)

Soupy snowball

Absolutely awful experience. Ordered a snowball and was given a completely melted cup of liquid. Never going back.

Best snowballs in New Orleans! They have a huge selection of both classic and unique flavors, and…read morethe ice is incredibly soft and fluffy. Don't let the giant tops fool you--it melts down fast because the ice is that soft. Even when there's a line, they move quickly. Definitely a must-visit if you're in New Orleans!

Came on a day trip to New Orleans just to eat and meet up with a friend who is from there. She took…read moreme to a couple of neighborhoods so I get an idea of where to stay if I decide to stay for a year. Then she asked me if I've ever had a snowball. I told her I wasn't a fan of icees because I grew up in Hawaii, where we have shaved ice. I described how the ice was so soft that it's almost like powder snow and is even creamy with toppings. She told me I really needed a try a snowball because in all the years I've come to New Orleans to eat it's an item that the locals love and one of the things I have to cross off my imaginary bucket list. I reluctantly agreed and we went to the Warehouse district and pulled up to Hansen's. She explained how nostalgic it was and how many celebrities have had Hansens. To my surprise snowballs are as soft as shaved ice from Hawaii! I really loved how there are so many flavor combinations. I'm not crazy about artificial flavors and was so happy to see Earl Grey tea and lavender! Such a grown-up flavor combination and that's what I ordered! A small was already too big, but it was wonderful, especially on such a hot, Summer day! I'm so grateful to Stacye for taking me to this local institution!!

I stopped by pandora's snowballs on a saturday afternoon and it was pretty busy. Despite the long line, we actually were served pretty quickly. And our snowball was made pretty fast as well. The food was pretty good! It was very sugary, but that's kinda what you come for :) the ice was really good & the cream was also yummy. It was a nice balance. I also thought the flavors of ice were nice and potent. We got a stuffed snowball with vanilla cream & half mango + half strawberry cheesecake. We also got the sour spray on the mango half. I'd recommend getting some more toppings, it would definitely make it more delicious I was a little disappointed that there was no seating or tables to eat at. Had to eat and walk at the same time.. or if there were tables we couldn't find them. But overall a good experience

The texture is unmatched too... truly the best soft ice in New Orleans. Located in Mid-City on Carrollton Ave, this spot is a neighborhood favorite. They also serve food and snacks, which makes it even better for a quick stop. Service is good just be ready for long lines. If you haven't tried them yet, it's a MUST. One of the best places to visit in NOLA during sno-ball season!
