Cotton & Snow - Shaved Ice Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Disappointing Portions & Overpriced I really wanted to love Cotton & Snow's açaí bowls. The taste itself is actually good -- but the portions are honestly ridiculous for the price. The bowl is literally made up of two tiny scoops of açaí that they press down, hollow out in the center, and smear up the sides to make it look full. Once you add toppings, the whole thing is maybe half full at best. For reference, two bowls cost $38 before tip. For that price, I expected a legit serving, not an illusion of one. Super disappointing and definitely not worth the money, even though the flavor was decent. I won't be back. read more

Cotton and Snow is a great place to stop in for a treat! They're situated in the middle of The Assembly and make a great stop for dessert after your meal at any of the other delicious establishments. I got the Hawaiian Rainbow, and my friends sampled the chocolate milkshake and the strawberry soft serve cone. Everyone enjoyed their treats! The service wasn't overtly warm but pleasant, and there's live music close by to enjoy. The one negative I can say is that the treats are pretty pricey. Other than that, they're great! Pro tip: go for one of their unique flavors like banana pudding or cherry cordial for a unique treat! read more

The snow/shaved ice is phenomenal. Boozy options and non-alcoholic options. Service was friendly. It's order at the counter and wait. Then take bake to whatever seat you found. The ambiance is nice for a food hall. Feels comfortable and perfect lighting to make it feel like a nice steakhouse vibe. read more

If you like Kona Ice or slushies, this is a similar style of ice cream but even better. The texture is light and refreshing, almost like Italian ice or gelati. Personally, I love it because it reminds me a lot of Rita's Italian Ice. The flavors are really good and it's the perfect treat if you want something sweet but not too heavy. read more

Hands down the best shaved ice I've ever had! I got the banana pudding flavor at Cotton & Snow in Assembly Food Hall, and it was delicious. It had super soft ice, strong banana pudding flavor, and was topped with whipped cream, sweetened condensed milk, cookie crumbles, and a vanilla wafer. You can even watch them assemble it while you wait. It was a perfect treat on a hot Nashville day. I would highly recommend any of their shaved ice options. read more

Do not waste your money. I barely walked away from the stand before it tilted sideways and I had to quickly sit and find a million napkins. This picture was taken 3 minutes after it was purchased. The cup is horribly flimsy and I couldn't even eat it and ended up throwing the entire thing away. The little bit I got to eat before getting covered in it tasted good but that's no consolation. read more

If I could give it a zero I would. Ordered a latte, it was white as snow, couldn't taste the coffee. So I took it back, they said we had to email the owner to get a refund. That seemed ridiculous, so I had the employee to call the owner, he said you have to email but he most likely he won't do it. I asked what's the process because emailing to get a refund doesn't seem secure because who would just send someone their card number through an unsecured email.... Because I'm sure he wouldn't. I asked if they had a no exchange no refund policy, they said no, so I was still trying to figure out why I couldn't get a refund just as fast as he took my money. He decided he was done talking and didn't want to deal with it anymore and hung up. Worst customer service ever and worst cup of whole milk I've ever had! read more

Cotton & Snow is super refreshing! The snow cones were perfection, the have lots of basic and interesting flavors to chooses from and an extra plus is you can make it an adult snow cone. The snow cones are the perfect liquid to ice combination. As far as the customer service is was very basic the staff were not very friendly and were not very engaging, but not rude... just know what you want and dont expect anything more. But overall it's a good place for a cold and sweet treat would definitely go back. read more

Shaved ice deliciousness! Last year we took a baby moon to Hawaii and this year we took a baby moon to Nashville. Little did we know we would have better shaved ice in Nashville than in Hawaii?!? Cotton and snow is a cool little cotton candy and shaved ice eatery. They offer tons of flavors and combos as well as boozy versions if that's your fancy. My hubby and I roamed around all the food options and were pretty excited to see cotton and snow. The guy took our order with enthusiasm (seems like enthusiasm runs thick in this area), whipped them up in a jiffy, and they were excellent! Flavors were in abundance and the ice was perfectly shaved and smooth. I had not had whipped cream on it before but it magnified the smooth texture and totally added to the deliciousness. Toasted coconut on top is a must as well! We are in Nashville a couple more days and I hope we make it back. read more

The hubs and I shared an Espresso Martini shaved ice with vanilla ice cream. The flavors were wonderful. I was expecting it to be more substantial for the price (it was around $25 all in). For that reason, I'd rate it more like a 3.5. But we did enjoy it. It is located in the Assembly Food Hall. read more

I was craving a snow cone soo bad and this place definitely lived up to my expectations of how good they used to be when I was little. They had cute picnic tables in the back where you also grab your order as well. The service was pretty quick and the cones are bigger than the picture and I got a small! I definitely will be stopping by here again soon!! read more

This little place is located inside the Freedom Food Hall and what an amazing little find it was. This was a totally unique dessert of the likes I've never tasted. It's really hard to explain what it was but it's like snow, cream and pudding mixed into one confection. It was pleasant to look at and amazing to taste. My girlfriend and I shared one and we both purred like kittens as we ate it. If you find yourself inside the Food Hall, make sure you try this place. Even the girl that made it for us was pretty and sweet. She was extremely friendly. Great service read more

By far the tastiest cotton candy I have had in all of Nashville. (And with alcohol & ice cream?? Yum!) My friends and I devoured this thing, it was absolutely delicious. Good flavor, good texture, bright colors and kind customer service. Was it $30 delicious? Eh, no, but I'm glad that I got to experience it. This single treat was $28, which seems a bit much for shaved ice and spun sugar (even with the added alcohol). read more

I've been here on two separate occasions and the snow cones are so good. I've tried the horchata and the cotton candy flavors and I think the horchata is better. You pay between 40-50$ for two snow cones but that's the price you pay when you mix alcohol with snow cones. They also have an options without alcohol but I'm not sure how that affects the price. The staff were always nice and patient each time I went. The place is inside of the assembly food hall so it's perfect if you're catching an event nearby or just wanted to come in for dinner and dessert. Overall, great business design that actually tastes great! read more

So glad we have this place a shot! I almost never buy shaved iced but the menu and pictures looked so good! We ordered the banana pudding shaved ice, the pecan pie shaved ice, and coffee ice cream. When you order a small, it is actually a pretty big shaved ice, so you can share with a group of people. The banana pudding shaved ice was delicious and tastes exactly like the pudding but you can still taste a bit of the fake syrup. The PECAN PIE SHAVED ICE was absolutely amazing!!!! There was caramel, pecans, ice cream on top. The shaved ice was sweet and creamy texture almost. It was so so so good!!! We got the coffee ice cream too but it wasn't as strong. read more

I love cotton candy! And this was very very very good snowcone, unlike the ones you get from fairs and stuff they are professional snow cone makers, the ice was very smooth and delicious, it's more of a shaved ice than snow cone. But this is the best snow conde dessert I've ever had! read more

Snow balls were big and tasted amazing. If you have small kids you may want to have them share.

I thought this would be one of those places where you get a fun novelty dessert that looks better than it tastes and boy was I wrong! First of all, they have so many delicious combinations it's hard to choose but I eventually decided on the coconut cream pie (which is currently off-menu) with the help of the staff. It did not disappoint! This is far more than the typical shaved ice I expected, it was creamy, flavorful and perfectly sweet! It was boozy without being over the top and destroying the dessert aspect. It's a little pricey at $18 a pop but well worth it for a splurge treat! read more

Cotton & Snow - Coconut cream pie - Shaved Ice Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This spot located in the 5th and Broadway food hall is the perfect dessert place, especially for summertime! Their "snow" is a finely shaved ice, much different from a typical grainy and crunchy snow cone. Think more like a slurpee but less liquidy and more scoopable. Like Italian ice but softer and easier to eat. I've tried ordering flavors off the menu as well as creating my own. Here's my 2 cents. I recommend either creating your own or ordering their flavors but skip the "boozy" ones. While it looks and sounds appealing- There is little to none if you're hoping for a buzz. Save your $ and buy a shot at the bar instead. Furthermore I've been happier just doing my own flavors as the price nearly double if you choose a fancy prechoosen recipe. Go for it if any of their fancy flavors really appeal to you but I've been super satisfied with choosing my own and adding an ice cream topping for way less! read more

Saw this place the day before and told myself I would come back the next day! Showed up the next day, only to be disappointed. They have soft serve in a variety of flavors. I asked for Strawberry and Chocolate soft serve, in a cup, and was quickly disappointed. I was told, "We don't mix flavors!" Ummmm... what? Who doesn't mix flavors for soft serve? Needless to say we made our way over to Hattie Janes instead. read more

My son loves Matsumoto in Honolulu. He said this place is his second favorite. Shaved ice is super soft. Pricey but good.

If you are the owner and you are reading this- your employee working on Dec 5th afternoon is a rockstar! He singlehandedly took orders and made all the snow bowls-- with a smile, not flustered all! This was the best snow I've ever had! I love that the ice cream was not sweet- not sure if that was intentional or just a weird batch but I loved it since it offset the sweetness of the syrup and provided that yummy creamy contrast! My cotton candy was so cute and so delicious! read more

The cotton and snow shaved ice was awesome! You get a huge portion for a decent price. The menu offered a nice selection of flavors and other things to try. The staff was pleasant and made our orders quickly. The only downside was that we wanted the shaved ice with the alcohol added sine we were at 5th and Broadway for a celebration. And what celebration isn't made a little better with a drink or two? The operators did say they'd have their liquor license soon, so hopefully others can enjoy that option. Overall, a nice option for something cold and sweet. read more

Fruity and frozen desserts are my FAVORITE and this one was exceptional. I am still trying to figure out how they got the shaved ice so soft and fluffy!! There was the perfect amount of strawberry flavoring throughout the ice and the whipped cream on top was the perfect touch. Next time I go back I definitely want to try one of the boozy flavors and perhaps their cotton candy as well. My friends and I all agreed that this was the perfect refreshing treat on a warm afternoon in downtown Nashville. We enjoyed our shaved ice while listening to the live band at the Fifth + Broadway Assembly Food Hall. This place has the coolest industrial chic ambiance and was super clean/ covid safe. Fortunately we had no trouble finding a table on a Saturday afternoon because the food hall is so spacious. Can't wait to go back! read more

My wife and I have enjoyed Hawaiian style shaved ice not only in Hawaii but a lot of places because it seems to be a trend that is spreading. The hook that this place has is it's "Boozy" ice. We were like "heck yeah!" Sign me up! Honestly, the deserts were very average at best - not bad but nothing We'd come back for. Barely any booze was used - at least we didn't detect much. But here's the kicker: we ordered 2 shaved ices; a regular non alcoholic and a regular with booze. With tax and tip: $42!!!!!! Excuse me, I need to get to a priest and confess! We felt a bit of shame spending that much on so little. Oh well, lesson learned. I want all businesses to succeed especially during these hard pandemic times - but could businesses meet us half way and not gouge us? read more
