    the outside of a restaurant
    Charmayne H.

    I've always been a fan of Pelican's! Such a sweet, cool & refreshing treat to satisfy you on a warm/hot day. My family is a repeat customer. I don't think there's a Pelican's we haven't tried within a 50 mile radius of our home (okay there's not THAT many... just added some numbers for theatrics but you get the point). Whether we're in North or South Carolina, you can believe Pelican's is in our plan on a warm day. The regular size is only $4. There's so many different flavors to choose from. No matter how busy they are, your cones come out pretty quickly. We love shave ice !

    Stopped here on hot day for a frozen summer treat. It's been years since I've had a snowball/ snow cone. I opted with something more traditional The Super Hero but had them add some gummy worms for the heck of it. I played it safe but wouldn't mind trying more.

    Fat free, gluten free, no cholesterol! If you've been to New Orleans, you've enjoyed a sweet, colorful snowball. Not the first location in the Charlotte metro area, but the first that is easily accessible for the millennial population in SouthEnd, although it is almost 2 miles further past the Burrito Factory on South Blvd, so closer to all the activity in Pinewood. Everything is $5 or less and there are 100 flavors, so near endless combinations. Like sour flavors! They've got it. Enjoy the creams like chocolate or key lime pie? Done and done. Have a kid whose wants something zany with a gummy on top. Do it to it. Simple business model that is best on warm spring/summer/fall/winter days. Ten benches set around the property of this old gas station and some activities like chalk and cornhole. Get on down/over to Pelican's for a tasty treat!

    Pelican's Sno-balls is the best!

    Pelican's Snoballs is a summertime staple for me! If you are unfamiliar with snoballs, they are a mixture of shaved ice and flavored syrup. Pelican's boasts over 100 flavors to choose from! Each snoball is customizable and you can even get it "stuffed" with soft serve. Service is always great at this location and the line moves very quickly. Pelican's is a seasonal establishment so they close for a few months beginning in November. Come spring though, they are back and I can get my snoball on!

They are so unique and delightfully surprising! They were such a hit at our wedding and brought a unique element. Not only can you chose between amazing flavors, but you can also customize the names of the signature flavors that you pick out! They were so professional, confident, personable, and such a pleasure to work with! They were so great with my husband and I, making sure they were set up the way we wanted and so great with our guests! Our flavors we chose were amazing and you can tell the difference with the flavors that they use! They are all organic and you can DEFINITELY tell! I have to say my favorite was the strawberry mojito and the watermelon with ICE CREAM!!! It was delicious! We will definitely be using them again for future events! They made us feel like family and they were so nice and wonderful to work with! Love love LOVE Southern Snowballs!

    First time at this location. Parking lot is small but there is some additional parking on the side…read moreroad if needed. The location has its good points and bad points. It sits in a neighborhood where there is a train track running parallel to it. There is a home right beside it that is in disrepair and not kept up. Just an eye sore more than anything. The business itself is nice and clean with a pretty big patio space to enjoy your treats. There are a couple children's tables and a game on the patio as well. There are LOTS of flavors to choose from and ways to customize your treat with toppings, ice cream, etc. I had the coconut cream and the flavor was AMAZING! My daughter and granddaughter also really enjoyed their flavors as well. They give law enforcement and military a discount when in uniform, which I love. They also have pup cups! Great addition to Thomasville! Will definitely be back!

    I love that Thomasville is getting more unique establishments on the more historical side of town…read more(near the big chair). We went on grand opening day, to be honest the staff kept up with the line very well! They were polite & very helpful with the menu. You pay at the first window (to the front of the building) then you walk with your receipt to the side window to pick up. The shaved ice was a lot more flavorful than I expected which was a pleasant surprise! *Pro tip* The regular size is more than enough for two people, so you can certainly be thrifty if need be! I love how many flavors are offered, and I believe I even saw where they have sugar free options! That will work great for many who are trying to keep honest in their diets but allow a little fun in their meal planning. I did show military ID, but didn't receive a discount ( I think the young lady was just trying to keep up with the line & doing her best- it slipped her mind which is totally fine). I just love that it's even an option! Great grand opening, I can't wait to try more flavors!

I quickly devoured the cinnamon roll and reheated the cobbler later for a sweet treat. Not sure who consumed the ice cream that came with the cobbler but I know it was enjoyed.

Even the peaches tasted like they could be fresh from the farm. It came topped with ice cream and was so delicious ! The cashier was nice and the place was clean. There are cute orange neon lights and a peach wall for selfies. There is no restroom though. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of the tables. There are 3 high top tables and a total of 6 high chairs. Not a regular table or chair in sight. This is not a bar. You'd like to be comfortable and short folks can't be comfortable eating in here. My husband stated they probably don't want people to eat there and just take it to go. Highly recommend this place adds one regular table with chairs. That would make it more friendly for short people, seniors, or handicapped.
