    The list of flavors at this snoball stand is amazing... however, I am a creme flavor kind of gal, and there are only 3 of those to choose from. Personal favorite? Pink Panther. In fact, I recently got adventurous and decided to stuff my pink panther.. with ice cream. Delightful. Prices are cheap. $1.50 gets you a reasonably large snoball ($0.50 more for stuffed), but there are smaller and larger sizes too. The regular flavors range from the staples like cherry, wedding cake, etc to some interesting pop culture references like Spongebob, Superman, or Tiger Blood (probably LSU-related, but my brain automatically jumped to Charlie Sheen). Oh, and they have ice cream sundaes, floats, and other frozen treats too. Even with a big line, the servers move quickly. Is it worth a trip to Marrero from the eastbank? Probably not. However, if you are already on the westbank, give it a try! Its no Plum Street, but good enough for me.

    Great sno ball stand. It's hard to elaborate on this place. They all are great, well actually I can think of one particullarly sucky one in Harvey. I come here enough I feel like one of the family. They have the typical sno ball stand faire, soft serve, chips, pickles, nachos, chili and candy bars. Priced decently The main thing I want to stress is the amount of flavors they have. Alot! And they seem to add maybe 3-5 every season. Not on the menu but they can make peanut butter shakes!!!! Mmmmmm Anyways if your passing by and see this stand, definitely stop in. $1 will buy you a small cup of heaven. Oh and sometimes they stay open well past out of season, but they arent open year round either, so that makes it extra special :-)

    I'm writing this as a real fan because Chance in Hell is easily one of the most creative and…read moreflavorful snoball stands in the city. Everybody always says Hansen's is the best, but I'm sorry... they just can't compete with Chance in Hell, no matter what anyone says. Handcrafted syrups, quality ingredients, and that ice... listen. If you're really from New Orleans, you KNOW the difference between a snoball and a snow cone. That ice is so fine, so soft, it literally melts in your mouth. You really be like, "What ICE?!" It's up there, for real. And the space? Baby... it's a whole experience. Perfectly curated to their brand. Very show-stopping, very show girl, all the drama in the best way. It's beautiful, it's fun, it's a vibe. It is more on the pricier side. With the quality of the Snoball. The difference is in the details. Honestly, they're one of the main reasons we surviving this heat. There really is a Chance in Hell lol.

    I am soooo behind on this one but I need to write them a proper review! I know this isn't the…read moreoriginal snowball place that most people may recommend but it was worth the visit ! I am used to snowballs being somewhat fine chunks of ice that have a ton of syrup glazed over it and maybe some bites have too much syrup or not enough syrup. And sometimes if I'm in the mood might have some marshmallows so this might give you an idea of where I'm from but the snowballs a chance in hell snowballs were on a whole different level. The ice is so fine the moment it touches your tongue it literally just melts. I opted for the Ube flavor in typically because of the syrup, I usually get more thirsty after I'm done eating snowballs, but with this one, it was so refreshing. I can only imagine the sensation if I were eating this on a hot summer day. They had some unique flavors and my husband my mother-in-law and I all got different flavors that we tried each other others and I can't say anything wrong about any of them. They were well balanced somehow the savory flavors worked as a dessert and I can't wait till the next time I can go back. Something I learned on this trip is that snowballs here are available from Mardi Gras until around Halloween so just something for you to note if you are traveling, but I was told that they do pop-ups here and there a little outside of the season. Their overall service was amazing. They are very friendly, very knowledgeable and had great recommendations. So if you're in the area, I highly recommend.
