Awesome spot in Cary to come for some boba and sweet drinks, some delicious bites and tasty…read moredessert! We ordered a bunch of different drinks, toasts and shaved iced dessert. I loved every item we got. My favorite thing was the signature toast, but everything we got was great. We ordered at the counter and all our items came out in about 10-15 minutes. The decor inside was also super cute :) I also like that you can find their menu online and it has all the prices listed. I'll always come here for a sweet drinks/treat. There was plenty of seating inside and some tables outside as well

It's such a picturesque place with decors as befitted the store name. I loved their bff boba and…read moreshaved ice has big portion but recall it not being shaved snow like bingsoo where the ice is made from frozen condensed milk but from plain ice cubes instead. Hope they can make that change in the future.

As a Louisiana Native, I'm a sucker for snowcones/snoballs in the summer!!! I'm always skeptical…read morehaving them in other states but let me tell yall, these are the real deal!!! The ice is fresh and perfectly sized (you can watch them grind it!), there are lots of flavor options including classics like Tiger's Blood, Tutti Frutti, Wedding Cake, and nectar, they put the perfect amount of flavor, and of course you can mix and match flavors to make your perfect combination! To compare these to the classic summer treat I grew up with, I had to get the pink lady..... nectar with coconut cream!!!! It was soooo good and the staff knew the combo by its name! I also love how there is indoor seating with games and also a few outdoor chairs! I had to play a few rounds of table ring toss while I was there! Can't wait to go back and feed the little Louisiana kid in me!!!!

I mean, who doesn't like snowballs!?!!! Such a cool treat to have on a hot day, or a perfect…read moredessert after a meal. wasn't too crowded when we went on this day and we were greeted immediately as soon as we came in the door. There are so many flavors to choose from! The problem is you if you can't find a flavor here to try lol. I'm a pretty simple flavor type of guy when it comes to frozen treats. My go to is always cherry. They did an excellent job making this one for me. They made sure to give me a really good amount of cherry flavor that I was able to taste in every bite. Prices are very reasonable. I have to say with all these flavors, maybe I need to expand my flavor profile and try some different ones. I will definitely be back to do so!

Pelicans is a classic! Such a great place to stop for a quick sweet treat on a hot day. They have…read moreso many different flavors and combinations to choose from. They have plenty of covered seating. I will say there were some pesky yellow jackets hanging around while we were there but I think that just comes with the sticky-territory.

Not only that but it was extremely cheap and delicious. I had the rainbow flavor and cherry. Both were delicious and too me back to my youth in NJ! This cart also serves hot dogs and drinks if you need a quick meal or pick me up. The man operating the cart was also very kind and seemed to also get along well with children.

Cool concept, but only half the flavors were available and the syrup is diluted…read more Also, why would you put a shaved ice stand near an electric fence?

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.

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!

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!
