I cannot believe I've only recently discovered Shake Shack. Apparently, I've been missing out! I accidentally found this place near our new subdivision. Major bonus points to them for being open 7 days a week until 7 PM (unless it's storming). It's hard to find a snowball stand open on a Sunday! It's also hard to find a snowball stand with as many offerings as Sweet Shack. I love that they have chocolate, vanilla and swirl soft serve because I always stuff my snowballs with the swirl combination when it's available! This is also one of the cheapest snowball stands I've ever come across. A small size will run a few dollars but the portion seems more like a large size to me. Thanks for being there for me throughout many cravings, Sweet Shack! read more

I had a taste for something sweet so I pulled up on Sweet Shack. Their drive thru is convenient if you do not want to get out of the car. One can also park and walk up to order. If the line gets long, an employee may come out and take orders started before one pulls up to pay. I paid $2.75 for a kiddie wedding cake with condensed milk. It was juicy and the ice was soft. They sell other items like banana splits, soft serve, and hot dogs. Do not forget to bring cash. read more

They only take cash. There were others who had the confused face, when they said cash only. It's sucks because a tap card reader is only 50$ on amazon. The service was ehh, the girl at the window looked like she was hot and ready to go lol. When I said dang I have no cash she said okay and shut the window.I wish I could've tried a snow ball but thats okay! read more

I stopped by needing a snowball fix! I loved that they had multiple sugar free options, and their prices are reasonable! They have quick drive thru service, so you don't even have to leave your car! It is cash only, so be prepared for that. I felt like the ice wasn't as soft as some other shops that I've been to, but the taste was really good! read more

If you want food, get there early I guess? We got there 45 minutes before they closed and tried to order nachos and they said they turned the cheese off. The young girls working there weren't professional at all. Disappointing experience. read more

We took our nieces here as they had never tried a snowball. They do not have snowballs in NJ. We all ordered different flavors, all with sweet and condensed milk. We did not wait long at all. The drive thru was busy the entire time we sat out front to eat our snowballs. We all tried each other's flavors and every one was very tasty and refreshing. We will definitely go back. The prices were great too. read more

This snowball stand has everything you'll want to get that FIX! I come here at least once a week for a sweet treat or snack. The food is always hot and ready. The ice melts in your mouth, and there are numerous flavors to choose from. I've been serviced in the past by their employees both ways: the drive thru & the walk-up window. I'm welcomed by smiling faces of workers who are so willing to offer their favorite flavor combos!! Haha I'm always so indecisive. Huge shoutout to Ms. Bailey & Ms. Lori for helping me. Usually I'm in a rush and head home right after getting my snowball, but if not, they have a great space to enjoy your snowball and snack. Clean picnic tables that are covered from the sun??? They have it. What more can I ask for in this heat?! The best on the bank! read more

Really great ice here! Looked like drive through only but I imagine they'd take walk ups. Long enough but not overwhelming flavor list. Nice seating area. read more

Loved the ice. It was nice and soft, melts in your mouth and NOT crunchy. Good flavors..not overly sweet (which is a good thing in our opinion). The entire family loved their snowballs. read more

Sweet Shack Snowballs - Snowballs - Desserts Near Me - Terrytown, Louisiana

I'm a snowball brat. I grew up on them. At home, we rode our bikes to a place just outside the neighborhood all summer for soft, fluffy snowballs. And when visiting my grandparents in Terrytown, I used to walk down Terry Pkwy with my grandfather to a place that "ain't there no more." Living in Houston, I can't really get a good snowball to save my life. Crunchy ice snowcones, sure. But not a legit, shaved ice, Nola-style snowball. So when I'm back, it's a must have. Luckily this place is right around the corner from my grandmother's. It is really one of the best snowball stands across south Louisiana. The ice is soft and fluffy. It melts on your tongue like spun sugar. The syrups are not overly sweetened. Their snowballs really just put a smile on my face. :) read more

Hands down the best snowballs on the Westbank. This place consistently has the best flavors, prices and friendliest employees. I can't comment on any of the food (standard concession stand candy and nachos etc) but this is the ONLY snowball stand I've gone to for years and the DRIVE THRU has a lot to do with that! Keep it up y'all! read more

A bit pricey but the snowballs are GREAT!!! Walk up or drive thru options!! Highly recommend

If you're looking for a treat while out shopping on the Westbank you must try this place out. Awesome snowballs and soft serve. They also have plump & juicy hot dogs (their words) and nachos! read more

I'm always on the hunt for cool things on the Westbank and I finally tracked down this cool snowball stand. They have all the usual snowball flavors. I got my usual, bubblegum. I know. I am super predictable and boring but I like what I like. Besides snowballs, this place also has hot dogs and other non sweet treats, making it a great place to bring kids if you want to get them out of the house. My favorite part of the whole operation is probably the fact that it has a drive thru. Super convenient on hot days when you don't want to leave the comfort of the car's air conditioning. read more

What what?! A drive thru snowball shack?! I'm in love... Oh me geeeeee! I always get the same thing, creature of habit, I get a dreamsicle with condensed milk and it was sooooo good. I will admit, I'm lazy and hate being hot so having a drive thru where I don't have to wait in the heat is a major plus for me... This is my new snowball spot for sure! I'll drive the extra distance to not have to wait in this awful Louisiana summer heat ;) read more

Decided to give this place a try. The ice was chunky, not soft and fluffy. The ice machine may need a filter of some sort, because the ice itself really tasted chlorinated. Also the girl behind the counter, looked to be about 17, could not add up 2 smalls ($2 a piece), 1 medium ($2.50), and 1 kid size ($1.75). She was using a calculator and had to do it 3 times with supervision. I told her it would be $8.25 and the lady helping her told her that was right...hopefully she was just new and nervous. read more

Absolutely awful experience. Ordered a snowball and was given a completely melted cup of liquid. Never going back. read more

Nachos be on point the temperature of the cheese be just right it be hot! the chips be just right the peppers be spicy and they give a good amount! Their Bahama mama snow ball is yummy I fw this place for sure! read more

Decent snowball joint where you can drive through for your chill fix. They are heavy on the syrup pour and the sizes are large and cheap. The ice consistency just wasn't my cup of tea and it seemed more like a snow cone instead of a snowball but that might have been due to the very heavy syrup pour. read more

Stopped by to grab snowballs for a group of 50 high schoolers before leaving New Orleans. The 2 girls working provided spectacular service and were truly patient. Thank you so much ladies. The kids advise to order the Margarita or the Bahama Mama. A delicious must have Nola classic on a hot summer day. read more

The wait in drive through is too long, the older lady taking orders is rude. & the flavors are mediocre. Never had watermelon that tastes like medicine. It's really nasty! The kiwi flavor doesn't really have flavor. Also it's dry!!!!!. A snowball should have juice at the bottom of cup. Nothing ", absolutely nothing ! && Why is the top of my ice still white. Plum Street would of never!!! read more

Every time I go there it seems like all you get is a lot of ice. They charge you for dry snowballs. Do yourself a favor and go further down the road they are not worth it !!! read more

This is my new favorite snowball place. If you haven't tried the polar punch flavor I highly recommend it. The ice is usually very fine and they offer nachos. Snowballs and nachos go together quite well. Try that too. read more

Love this place! We discovered them one day when taking the back streets to Home Depot and I'm glad we did. The flavors are great and they also offer typical sno-ball stand food (nachos, hotdog, pickles, etc...). The most convenient thing about this place, besides being right behind my house, is they have a drive thru. When things get backed up they send a girl outside to take orders so they can keep the line moving. The ice is soft and doesn't clump up and the people are always nice. Definitely recommend! read more

Slow drive through service. 2 cars ahead of you = 20-25 mins wait. Average snowballs, and check your order. They didn't add the condensed milk that I paid for read more
