Highly recommend Vampire Penguin! Their desserts are top tier AND they do parties! We just had my son’s 6th birthday here and everyone had an absolute blast. Jessica was so accommodating and so sweet! We’ll definitely be back for more parties in the future! 🩷

Funny name, great shaved ice. A lot of different flavors and no it's not like you are buying a sno-cone. Quick service and the place was very chill. They did leave a sign saying as of 8/10/24 they would shut down for a bit to get some non-colleged age help and then add ice cream too. Worth a look and a taste for sure!

Unique type of dessert and delicious coffee. Tried the s’mores ice cream/shaved ice and it was phenomenal. The coffees and donuts were awesome as well. Staff was super friendly and helpful! Do yourself a favor and check this place out!!

Everytime I've been here, the staff has always been amazing! The specialties are great, plus you can make your own desert. Such a cute business that has amazing shaved ice cream and a ton of toppings for endless combinations. Highly recommend this location

Absolutely delicious and unlike any other dessert. We tried the fruity pebble and cotton candy snow and my kids really enjoyed it. Of course mom tried and really liked how light and fluffy it is! Def coming back!

Food is good but I've gone 2x during Google posted business hours and they were closed. Could you possibly update the accurate hours.

vampire penguin: this place is DELICIOUS! their signature treat, the “vampire penguin,” is my new favorite dessert. we’ve also tried their donuts and cookies, and they’re delicious as well - the buttercream donut is seriously addictive. i don’t know her name, but i’ve always seen a younger woman with dark hair in a ponytail working there, and she is always very cheerful and helpful. (i haven’t tried uncle nick’s yet, but it’s always packed, so it must be good, too!)
