This Shimmers is open year 'round! I feel like that this is the only dream in my 23 years of life that has actually come true. While I feel the 'magic' of summer is somewhat tarnished now that I can get a snocone any time of the year... wait, no. Actually, there is no magic in summer. I hate it. Snocones are the only thing that makes summer tolerable. So now summer can -completely- EAT IT. This location is only two miles away from my home and while the one on NW Expressway is closer, this particular building is in a perfect spot since I travel that way often (did I mention the year 'round part?). For the time being, they only have a drive-thru, but they are working on opening the inside (this is the building where Cherry's used to be. In fact, at the time of this review the Cherry's sign is still there). When my boyfriend and I went today, the owner of Shimmers, Amy McSwane, was there. She is SO nice! It was obvious that she greatly enjoys what she does and it's a treat to interact with her. Great service+Great product, yo. I could go on about what all they have, but the website listed has everything on there. They also have a Facebook page and a Twitter (I follow them on Facebook, because I made a conscious decision not to Twitterz) that posts updates about their hours (due to weather or otherwise) and even little deals from time to time. Such as, today was $0.50 off snocones (individually) if you follow them. I've only been to 2 of the 4 locations, but I'm willing to bet the other two are just as great. read more

Shimmers - Almond Joy! - Shaved Ice Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Said they closed at nine, we came before nine and they said they weren't serving anymore.

I drove 20 minutes to this place because I saw they closed at 9pm. we arrived exactly at 8pm and she told us they were closed but it said they closed at 9pm. very disappointing especially because we drove this far because we love coming to this certain place. read more

Costumer service is nice and friendly + good flavors. Drive thru is convenient and the walk up window is fun on hot summer days

I love the variety of flavors and the price for them. I'll be a frequent visitor all summer read more

flavor was good. Prices were not accurate on the menu. When the cashier explained it to me still did not add up and they overcharged me! Probably won't go back. read more

Since covid, we've been coming to this place. They have phenomenal sno ones and they're very reasonable. read more

Shimmers - a hand holding a cup of strawberry jam - Shaved Ice Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

My daughter was craving a shaved ice, so I called the # and it said all locations were open until 10pm. We drove 7 miles, got there at 6:15pm and there was no one there, and it looked like it had been closed all day. I get that places lose for various reasons, but update your messages so that you don't say your open when you're not. read more

We tried Shimmers for the first time a few days ago. We got a Spongebob (pina colada and vanilla) with cream and gummy bears and a Thunder (tangerine, polar punch & silver fox). They both had plenty of syrup. The spongebob was amazing but the Thunder didn't have a lot of flavor to it although it had plenty of syrup, weird. They put the gummy bears in a souffle cup. They gave plenty of them but I like them in the actual snow cone, underneath the cone. After we placed out order, I noticed they had butterscotch so we went back the next day. We got two strawberry cheesecakes, a butterscotch and a rainbow. The rainbow was overflowing with syrup and was tasty but the butterscotch only had the syrup on top in the cone. The rest of it was plain ice. I should have taken a photo of that but I had already put my phone up and I just wanted to get home before the storms hit. One of the strawberry cheesecakes had a decent amount of syrup but the other did not. I was happy with the first visit, but the second visit left me unsatisfied. All the staff were friendly but the inconsistency in the quality was too drastic. I only drove that far the second time to get butterscotch because nobody else has that flavor but I will stick with my usual snow cone place closer to my house. read more

I love that this location is open year round. The staff is always friendly and the flavors are always delicious. I wasn't sure about a couple flavors, so they gave me free samples to try it out first, which I appreciated. I wound up choosing my go-to...the margarita. With flavor add ins on the menu, I decided to get sea salt with it, which was a fantastic combination. The only downside, and the only reason this is getting four stars, is because in spite of it being open year round with a store front as opposed to a little shack, there is no indoor seating. There is a drive thru, a table, and a couple benches. I'm hoping that changes in the future. read more

Love love love Shimmers! Not only are the sno cones delicious, the smoothies are not to be missed. In the winter, try a gourmet hot chocolate. You won't regret it! read more

The coffee was absolutely the best coffee I've ever had. It did have subtle blueberry notes and was so smooth. I never thought I could find coffee that would make me swoon - but Demitasse provided just such an experience. Fantastic coffee. read more
