    Blackberry cobbler
    Margaret A.

    I think the last time I had shaved ice was before the pandemic. So quite awhile ago. I was excited to try their stuffed 'snoballs' (as they call them) with ice cream! I ordered the blackberry cobbler. The ice was very fine and fluffy and melted nicely in my mouth. The blackberry flavor was good, not too sweet. I enjoyed the ice cream at the bottom! The nice lady serving us was all by herself! She did a fantastic job! They have some seating inside and some outside. Just not a lot of tables. I'd definitely go again! Just wish they were closer to where I live.

    My son's grape orange Sno. That's a kid size!

    The Sno Café has perfected the craft of making snowcones. The ice they use is almost fluffy and never fuse-freezes. So, when you got to bite down on a flavor filled syrup cluster, no teeth are in danger of being cracked. This was my first time enjoying the Sno Café and it was via their food truck at the Fresno Grizzlies opening weekend. My kids went for classic flavors like cherry, pineapple, and grape, but opted for the ice cream filled snowball. I ordered birthday cake flavor? and it was incredible! I'm not sure what I was expecting, I thought "ice cream filled" was just a fun plan words. Nope! There was a full hardy scoop of vanilla ice cream in the middle of this snow cone. What an amazing pairing. Once the ice cream made its debut and I showed my kids, they snatched my treat and devoured it... I don't blame them. If you haven't been yet, the Sno Café is awesome and definitely worth a stop. Especially with summer right around the corner.

    The red one was a sugar-free one if you kinda look at it it kinda does look waxy. It looks a little off.

    I visited a truck they had in River Park while ordering was easy. The service was great. Just the product wasn't good. We got three different snow cones. One of them was the cheesecake. I believe a lavender one and a sugar-free one my sugar-free one tasted like wax like it was horrible . I've never eaten anything like that and I even asked if I could sample the syrup just to see what the taste would be like and they don't do that, but the fact that you even felt like wax was weird, my friend got the lavender one. It was really pretty. It smelled nice, but hers also tasted like wax. It was just weird, but then our friend who got the strawberry one it was fine. The ice was fine. It tasted like strawberrythe other ones we ended up throwing away. I wouldn't go back here again. It was just a no go for me, but everything looked really nice, but the flavor was not there.

    The 2 ladies in the Sno Cafe truck were very nice. We ordered a watermelon cooler. It was nice and refreshing. Perfect especially for the warm weather in Fresno. The truck is nice and clean, several options of flavors to choose from on the menu. Service was quick and they brought it out to my daughter since we were standing at another food truck ordering. Awesome job ladies and thank you! We'll see you soon!

    Medium strawberries and cream.

    Worth a try. This place is different than those that serve shaved ice. So don't this mixed up. The consistency is comparable to eating flavored snowball. There used to be another place in the area that served this but was shut down during the pandemic. So I ordered the strawberries and cream. It was first fill with a strawberry filling in the bottom and then the shaved snow was put on top of that. It was drenched with a condense milk and a strawberry filling syrup. Then it was topped with a strawberry. It was nice and light compared to ice cream. The service was quick and the atmosphere is small but cute. I'd recommend a try. I will be back.

    Cute place

    The shaved ice here was so delightful! The texture was very fine and soft, it is not anything like what you usually think the texture of shaved ice is! We got the flavors, strawberry short cake and Kuppa joy, and they were both so delicious! I especially liked the whip cream garnish, it tasted very fresh. The Kuppa joy was my favorite cuz not only did it have the cream but it also had a chocolate and Carmel drizzle and chocolate bits on it! It was such a dynamic flavor. The staff were friendly and quick to make our order. There was minimal seating and tables inside, it is not recommended for big groups. The noise levels were low so it was a great place for my friend and I to catch up one-on-one. This location has plenty of parking since it is in a shopping plaza and shares a parking lot with many stores. Plus Trader Joe's is right next door so might as well treat yourself before or after going grocery shopping!

    Mango, Pineapple & Chamoy

    We love a good bowl of Shaved Ice, and this was a Great bowl of Shaved Ice! From the fine texture of the ice to the delicious syrups made in house, to the great array of combinations they have created, what a great experience! Being our first time here, Samantha was a great help as she walked us through all the wonderful choices! My wife had the Mango, pineapple and Chamoy and I had the blackberry cobbler, both absolutely delicious! We will definitely be back!

    Fave dessert in Fresno! Sno Cafe snow cones are SO GOOD. They mean it when they say they have gourmet shaved ice! Idc how full I am, I am always down for Sno Cafe. Whether you're at their truck or their brick and mortar, service is super quick! The inside of their physical store is clean and with a couple of tables! Each and every one of their snoballs are good but my favorite by far is their ice cream & cake stuffed snoball. This particular visit I got the strawberry shortcake and it was yummy as well. Their presentation for all their snow cones are always so cutesy too. 10/10 would recommend.

    Rainbow Stuffed Sno Ball
    Andrew K.

    Sno Cafe - arguably the most popular local spot for snow cones - opened its storefront today! It is located on the southeast corner of N. Willow Avenue and W. Ness Avenue. Just in time for those who want to avoid the long lines at the food truck during the hot summer months. They still have their food truck, so check the website for the dates, times, and locations. My usual order is between the Rainbow and Orange Creamsicle. I always get the Stuffed Sno Ball with vanilla ice cream on the bottom of the cup, topped with whipped cream, a sour taffy, or a small orange wedge. Expect the same friendly service as you have come to appreciate from the food truck, but they have hired additional helpers in anticipation of the longer lines in this shop. I am so happy they opened their first storefront. The timing could not have been better as the temperatures outside hit three digits.

    Good shaves ice flavors. Bring and cozy place to chill during summer. Lovely and friendly service.

    It's been awhile since I had Sno Cafe... in the past I would go to Gazebo Gardens and order a large Orange Creamsicle... because who says you can't have dessert for dinner???? So excited Sno Cafe opened a store front!!! Because the Orange Creamsicle is such a great treat for the Fresno summers. 10/10 would recommend! The orange creamsicle... is the best. You get whip, flavored shaved ice and ice cream???!!! It was just how I remembered it, absolutely DELICIOUS!

    We've followed their truck for years to river park and Enzo's to get some yummy sno cones. My hubby and boys were so excited they got an actual location. We went this past weekend and they did not disappoint. The employees are always really friendly and accommodating. The sno cones are just as delicious or maybe even better. They have traditional flavors and they make some with ice cream and whipped cream on top. Everything I've tried has been so refreshing especially on a hot summer day. This place is a must try if you like sweets.

I…read moreused to frequent their Santa Ana shop when I lived in Orange County, so this feels like a welcome addition close to home. With a legacy dating back to 1945, Handel's has spent over 70 years perfecting its craft. They are known for making their ice cream fresh daily on-site using a proprietary, high-quality cream recipe that results in an exceptionally smooth, dense texture. Their commitment to premium ingredients, generous portion sizes (at least 2.5 scoops per cone), and a rotating selection of over 100 flavors has helped them earn a loyal following. Portions here are notably large--so much so that the four-scoop "sampler" is easily shareable between two people. The flavor selection is equally impressive, ranging from classics to creative options like Buckeye, Graham Central Station, and Blue Monster. That signature richness, thanks to their heavy cream base, is what sets Handel's apart--but it can also be a bit much depending on the flavor. For me, some varieties lean a little too heavy, which makes their lighter options especially appealing. My personal favorites include Strawberry, Pistachio, and Coconut Pineapple, along with their sherbets and sorbets, which offer a refreshing alternative. If you are in the mood for something fruit-forward with a touch more indulgence, the Orange Dream Cream and Banana Cream Pie are excellent choices. I am glad Fresno now has a Handel's to call its own. If you have not been yet, it is well worth a visit to experience how their traditional, small-batch approach delivers such a uniquely rich and creamy ice cream.

Ordering is simple and the cashier was friendly. I wished the fro-yo portions matched what customers received in the past, and there was no option to order small, medium or large. The flavors: pistachio not overly sweet was perfect for my wife. I ordered the half chocolate half brown sugar and only could taste chocolate so I was disappointed . Also their "fish" cone had a salty aftertaste. Overall, it's not an experience I would even give a 2nd try.

The fillings weren't too sweet, which I like but I think they could've used just a tiny bit more sweetness because they were kinda borderline bland. As for pricing, I know doordash marks everything up, so I'm not judging them based on the prices I paid through doordash. Looking at Beard Papa's regular prices on yelp, I still think they're a little higher than what I would've expected for cream puffs, but not by a lot or anything. Overall though, I thought they were pretty good, and I'd probably go back, just probably not for every craving.
