Wow! Just wow!! We moved from MN to NC last week. And drove by this place and today we checked it…read moreout. We needed a little refreshing treat after a long day of unpacking and this place definitely hit the spot! There is SO many flavors to choose from. Italian ice and 'SnoBalls'. We are familiar with with shaved ice where we are from but tonight we wanted the very very thin ones which is snowballs. Italian ice to me is a thicker heavier shaved ice. I was taking pics and the owner Margie came out to see if we had any questions. I assume we looked confused as there was 2 different kinds of choices of shaved ice. She explained the difference and we did indeed make the right choice :) she was SO nice and friendly. When I'm telling you this, I'm not lieing. What a gem!!! She even let us try the Italian ice which was amazing as well. I even joked in a few years my son should get a job here ;) it's a laid back atmosphere with tables, bean bag game/cornhole. We all agreed we LOVED it and it is amazing. We will become regulars for sure!! Thank you Margie for being so sweet and welcome. See you soon!

So good. Like childhood in a cup. This is soft melt in your mouth like snow ice w amazing flavors…read more On a hot day or even a cold one it can't be beat. Margie, the owner, is a delightful ray of sunshine. My son, sister and I loved it!!!

One Ice Machine? In This Heat? Bold Strategy…read more I drove an hour in the middle of a heat wave like I was on a mission from the shaved ice gods. I pulled up to Waves Shave Ice in Holly Springs, ready to cool down and live my best life. Instead, I got a front-row seat to a sweaty comedy. Stood in line for over 60 minutes under the blazing sun -- no shade, no misting fans, not even a warning flare. Then, just as I get close to the window... "Sorry, our ice machine just broke." Ma'am. Sir. ONE ice machine? In the peak of summer? With this kind of traffic? Y'all need at least two, maybe even three. This place is too popular to be operating like a home kitchen with one blender on life support. They need to treat this like a concert venue, not a lemonade stand. Invest in backup machines -- or at least an emotional support popsicle for the folks in line. I left hotter than I came, spiritually and physically. All I got was disappointment and a tan line and am chocolate already.

Tried this place 2 times and the drinks were decent. I think I have to keep trying to see which…read moredrink I like the best from them. I really liked how the shop looked and it felt really cozy but when we walked in the first time, we weren't greeted or welcomed. Even when we got to the counter, we weren't sure where the line started or where to go. There were 3 workers behind the counter and no one said anything to us. I will continue to give this place a try because I see them all over my tiktok but their customer service could use some work.

Don't forget your fur babies they have $1 treats for them as well. If your passing through Laurinburg this summer stop by and grab a snowball for the road. Thank me later!

What a neat little place. I look forward to coming home every year to see what has changed and…read morecheck out the new businesses that have popped up. Now it seems that Laurinburg has caught onto the shaved ice craze. The family brought me here on a warm summer night and it was the perfect treat. Shave ice with all kinds of flavors for every taste; even a "sno-ball" variety with ice cream in the middle. The treats theirselves could be enough to bring you there but the business also has a small playground with stuff to keep the young'uns busy after they're all jacked up on their sugar rush. Don't now how well they do in the winter but this is definitely the place to go on the hot, muggy Carolina summer days. I hope these guys do well.

Bathrooms were clean and the ice water was a huge amount for the price we paid. Two regular sizes for $11 was well worth it. Even played great music. They sell other items like banana pudding. Didn't get to try because our servings were so big we didn't have room. It was a little hard to find them because the signage doesn't help with what they are selling but you will see posters on the windows outside. Try em out y'all!

Well I waited and waited and then I ordered something for my son. The lady in front of me the second time I went to the window got her soft serve, nachos, hot dog, and soda before I got my original order. My son asked the girl bellowing numbers where 71 was and she said, "we are only on 68." And has proceeded to bellow out the number 75 no less than 10 times. They have now called 78 and still no ice cream and no coke float. How does this make any sense? And she's rude because she's mad she had to remake someone's snow cones, cool I'd be upset too but at the end of the day I don't understand how an ice cream cone can take longer than ANYTHING else to make. I was so excited to come out and find a cool place to hang out and now it appears I'll keep looking. I gave the extra star because the young lady taking the orders was super sweet.
