Shaved Ice Restaurants near Bradenton, FL

“We stopped by Pelican’s Snoballs in Bradenton and were pleasantly surprised! They have a huge variety of flavors to choose from, and the snoballs are soft, fluffy, and packed with that authentic New Orleans flavor. A perfect treat on a hot Florida day!

They’re currently running a great deal—$20 for 25 coins, and each coin is worth $1. It’s a fun and budget-friendly way to treat the whole family. In addition to snoballs, they also offer other frozen treats and ice cream options, so there’s something for everyone.

Parking is a little limited, but there’s a picnic area with shaded seating and yard games, which made the experience even more enjoyable for the kids. It’s a laid-back, family-friendly spot we’d definitely visit again!“

“Staff was very welcoming as you walked in. Explained the menu to us as it was a first time there.

We spent over $30 for a small custard in a cup, gelato/custard, and ice cream sandwiches. It was good but for me...but that's a little pricy for what we ordered.

This is somewhere I would go once or twice a year.“

“Been here a few times now and loved it every time. The employees are great! There's one we usually see and I wish I knew their name, but they always seem very genuine and present in the conversation and I appreciate that. Also, they all make great gelati creations. I hope they all get more money bc they deserve it.“

“Great place to get an icy cool treat. Place is very clean, great employees that have great recommendations as well.“
