Bahama Buck's - Allen

This is my favorite Bahama Bucks because the workers are so sweet and friendly. They always have great suggestions and make my snow cones with perfection. The best cool treat on a hot day!

I got the Strawberry Banana Calypso Smoothie from Bahama Buck’s, and it was amazing! It was super smooth, creamy, and perfectly sweet with a fresh tropical flavor that totally hit the spot. Kenzie, Sarah, Jada were so friendly, making me feel at home. The place had a fun island vibe, and the whole experience just felt like a mini vacation. I’ll definitely be back to try more flavors!

Best experience with Kate, Andrea, and Sabrina!!! The customer service was outstanding! Everyone was so friendly & upbeat. Service was quick and efficient & the team really made the visit enjoyable. The snow cones were packed with flavor & the presentation was super cute too! I left highly satisfied and can’t wait to come back. This location and staff definitely deserve recognition for going above and beyond!

Bahama Buck’s never disappoints! Soft ice and fun toppings. The cookies & cream was amazing, and the tropical mix was super refreshing. Perfect treat on a hot day!

Our first time coming here with friends and it was a fun experience. The lady who hoped us gave us some free samples because we couldn't deciede what we wanted. That helped us choose a flavor we liked. They have amazing combos and choices. I got the coconut snowcone with some cream and a rum punch flavor so tasty. My froends got cherry and tiger Lilly flavor snowcones so tasty and strong flavors. Next time inwant to try the orange dreamsicle with icecream. This summer especially on a hot day this is the perfect place to be.

The service was friendly and relatively quick. Restaurant was clean and well kept. I love the options. 1 child gets a smoothie, another a shaved ice, another a milk shake, and I love the BRM.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Bahama Buck’s, a fantastic shaved ice shop that left me truly impressed. From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The vibrant and tropical-themed decor instantly set the stage for a refreshing and enjoyable experience.

We went through the drive through, which was busy, but moving quickly. The young man who waited on us was courteous. My son wanted me to try the shaved ice with cream in it, he said it was incredibly good. We ordered the Oreo cookie sno with cream. I have no complaints, my mind didn’t care for it. It didn’t stop me from eating it, but for myself the texture was weird. I will definitely stick with the traditional shaved ice, but that’s a cool option for people who like the cream in it!

Omg they have sooooo many flavors we have been a couple times now and the snowcones are huge, a great value, there are tons of flavors, and they even have all natural flavors! They have a cute patio outside where you can sit and enjoy a chill environment. Service is pretty consistent. They tend to be a little heavy-handed with the syrup, so if you don't like it overly sweet make sure you tell them to go light on that. Overall, we recommend!!

We went with our daughter. She had told us they were amazing. I'm not a big fan of shaved ice so I wasn't planning to get one. After tasting theirs I had to get one. I got the baby size and it was the perfect size. I got the strawberry cheesecake. Yum!! Soo good. The flavor went all the way to the bottom of the cup. No ice was without the flavoring. My husband got a really sour one. He loves really sour things and liked the sour warhead spray they put over the already sour ice. My daughter got a sweet flavor and said she preferred the sour ones. They have lots of different flavors so it would be fun to experiment.

Love everything, sweetest people working here. My favorite is the sour cherry with gummy bears

Delicious is one word to describe this place. My fiancé and I came last weekend. He got real fruit and I did gummy bear flavor. Both were so good and we were both very much impressed. We even got a pup cone for our pooch. We give this place 4 thumbs and two paws up!

Delicious snow cones but what topped off this experience was the service that we received. Employees were friendly and professional. Thanks!

Artificial flairs - no real fruit used in any of the smoothies. Tasted awful. Expensive for what it is - liquid syrup/sugar.

Highly recommend this location! Wide variety of options, staff is always welcoming and kind, and the environment is fun and clean!

Many flavors to select from or combine. They offer sugar free flavors for those with diet restrictions. You can order snowballs to go for a random day snowball fight.

This location looks pretty outdated from the outside, so if I hadn't had the product before I'd be a bit cautious. Decided to try it out despite my negative teenage employee experience's at other locations only to have the same here. The young lady who checked me out had an attitude despite me spending a decent amount of money during tough times. Her and the male counterpart continued to gossip about me and the customer's behind me in the drive thru right in front of my face. Completely unprofessional. Sucks for such a great product.

If you're looking for an alternative to traditional ice cream/froyo then BB's is the perfect spot! This shaved icy treat is so delightful, light and filling that you're gonna want more and more. The variety of flavors is insane, including a sweet cream that just adds that "extra" yumminess to any flavor. What I love is they offer a new healthy (flavoring) version, more natural and less calories. I opted for the mango with cream, and my daughter had the healthy pineapple flavor (no cream) and both were great. We also asked for Chile salt and sour salt on the side, gave out shaved ice a little kick. The store is super cute, very clean. And the staff was great, all three of the young women working were very kind, helpful and cheerful which is a rarity these days! A plus is our fur baby was able to sit out in the patio with us as we enjoyed our BB's. Stop by, you'll love it.

We ordered the KOKOMOKO Smoothie (dark chocolate mixed with cola and mocha java), the FUNKY MONKEY smoothie (coconut flavoring, rich chocolate creme, 3 whole bananas and pineapple juice) and a Green Apple shaved ice. All three were impressive!! It's so exciting when they hand it to you with a ton of cool whip topping, a bright red cherry and an adorable umbrella ~ so creative visually!! Obviously delicious for a 5 Star rating, lol. The prices range from $2.00 - $6.00 each depending on what you order. I also like that calories are posted with each item -- really helped me to pick something that stayed within my range. You can buy party packs.. and snow balls! No joke. It's a small cozy building that feels like you stepped into the Bahamas! The branding is on point with the decor and colors. A fantastic place to hang out. There is seating outside and inside. Very clean place considering the traffic going in and out. Definately a local teen hangout. Looks like a little bit of Allen H.S. and Lovejoy H.S. kiddos.

I love the shaved ice, I love the flavors, but most of all, I love the service! This place gets crowded in the summertime, yet I'm always greeted with a smile and great attitude when I come here. This place provides great "good old fashioned customer service". I think it's a rule that to work here you need to be a happy person. This place is family oriented and typically has teenagers and families packing the building non-stop. I'm always anxious to try new flavors and see what my kids choose. I love the sour flavors and my kids love the pink lemonade. They have a Game Center when you first walk in, so you and the family can play a board game while you enjoy you yummy shave flavored ice. The only warning I would say I need to give is "watch out for the brain freeze". This place is always clean and just has a great overall fun feeling to it. My kids love having family time here; they typically complain about dining in house at most laces. I'm glad to have a place this awesome to bring the family to for great night.

The last time I was at a Bahama Buck's was at the original location in Lubbock on the Brownfield Highway. As I recall, it was set up in a little pink wood shed with Christmas white lights strung all over and random picnic tables for Texas Tech students to hang out over a shaved ice. I think the owner had set the stand up as a way for his kids to earn money for their college funds. Fast forward to today and it is all grown up! Of course, I had to get the original Bahama Rama Mama with Blue Bell vanilla ice cream, banana shaved ice, banana colada & cream. Took me back to the late 80's-early 90's. Do yourself a favor and discover this great place & all the flavors it has to offer!

I guess ice with flavors and the smoothies here are just not items anyone in our family enjoys. We are more of the Yummy Licious frozen yogurt family.

I freaking love the consistency of the sno at BB, but sadly the two locations in McKinney are HORRID. The owners basically turned it over to the teens and if you go there it's a 30-45 min wait NO MATTER WHAT. It's ridiculous I'd have to drive to another town to get this, but it is what it is. Located about three minutes from 75 and McDermott is Allen's BB location. Right away I'll let you know that thankfully it's not owned by the BeShears who own the McKinney location, which you can absolutely tell by how quickly you get service. Three cars ahead of me in the drive thru took me 4 minutes. I'm not kidding. 4 minutes from ordering to Sno deliciousness. The young guy working was super nice and I noted that they all wear uniforms here and there's ample area inside to enjoy your treats. I keep pondering why this location is so good and the other so poor. I'm glad though because even though I have to drive a bit more to get it, at least I can get it.

It was free snow cone day for some reason, so I wanted to go check it out. This was definitely one of the better sno cones places that I've tried in Dallas. The ice was finely shaved and it just melted in your mouth. There were a variety of flavors to choose from and multiple toppings that you could choose. I had the strawberry cheesecake which was really good and then I just added condensed milk when I got home and so it just hit the spot!! They also put enough syrup to cover all of the ice without having too much when you get to the bottom, which I think requires skill! The only thing is that it's pretty pricy for just ice and syrup...just sayin. Other than that, it's a nice treat to cool off with in the upcoming hot weather.

I knew Bahama Bucks was special when I ate my piña colada - the ice was so feathery with no ice chunks. I just didn't realize that the Allen location was superior - but after going to the Plano location with chunks of ice...then in seeing that Plano had 3 stars and Allen 4.5, I understood why.

Love, love, love this place! My kids love coming here as a special treat when school starts in the summer and ends the following summer. They love seeing all the new flavors and it blew their mind when they found out they actually get to try flavors before I force them to decide what they wanted. All are really good and really load up the syrup into their cups. I think they secretly want to send me home with hyped up kids, you know like grandparents do, but well it makes my kids happy and that makes me happy. I do suggest trying a few flavors and then try new combos as you go. My youngest likes pineapple and rootbeer together...well on each half of the ice. While my oldest like fanta and candy corn. See? Weird. Or it could be my kids are just weird. I love the frozen koko? Oh why can't I remember the correct spelling! Anyway hot cocoa just frozen. Really chocolatey and just plain good. Mmmm...makes me smile just thinking about it...with the whipped cream on top too. It awesome when you find a treat at the same place your kids like and not just coming home with their stickiness.

This location rocks!!! They were understanding of my order, helpful and even reminded me to get my punch card!

I'd leave one start if I could. They are so rude and stuck up. I feel like the girls that work there are very inconvenienced by my going there to get a smoothie. I'm a local and have been there more than 10 times and have decided never to go back because of poor service and have been giving them second chances almost 8 of these times. Same girls always rude service.

Literally made 3 orders only received two, after being told they proceeded finishing the customers big order before giving me my one they missed. Poor customer service move too slow aren't serious about solving problems nor critical thinking.

Great place. Your command is their wish. Collin, Thank you! For the yummy experience.

Excellent customer service and these smoothies were the best smoothies we've ever had! Highly recommend this place. The woman at the counter was so friendly.

We always drive by here but never had a chance to come in. After dinner nearby, I decided to continue the fatassery and get a shaved ice from here. We went through the drive thru, and got ourselves a small shaved ice with mango syrup and condensed milk. This was very big for a small size! Definitely shareable among two people. The shaved ice was pretty good. A little too sweet for my taste, so next time I'd probably get a sugar free syrup to lessen the sweet flavor. There are actually so many flavors to choose from, which is pretty impressive! Also they come with a variety of toppings, including ice cream. I almost wanted to put ice cream, but I remembered we have vanilla blue bell at home. Adding ice cream made the shaved ice even better. Bahama Buck's is located on the east side of Allen, which is a little quiet. I haven't been inside, but from the drive thru window, it looks like an oasis and a fun vibe overall inside. Come here for a sweet treat, especially now that it's summer! Enjoy.

Stopped in for an afternoon treat with the family. I am diabetic so I was hoping they would have a sugar free option so I could join in on the treats (I get left out many times) The had an entire section on their menu for sugar free options! They made my daughter's choice special by adding sprinkles and a bunch of little umbrellas for her. They even had games to play while we enjoyed our snow cones.

We love this gem! Can't get enough of this place during the summer. Costco has discounted Bahama bucks gift cards so we've been visiting almost everyday for a refreshing treat! Staff is friendly and the product is great. No complaints here ! Thanks!

Despite the fact that I cringe when I pay (it's like the Starbucks of sno-cones), I love Bahama Bucks. I was not a fan of shaved ice until I came here, and I've had more sno-cones in the past year then I've had in my life. What I love most about Bahama Bucks is the variety of drinks you can get so that everyone is happy. If I don't want a sno-cone, I can get a smoothie, or a lemonade, or a coffee drink, or even mixed fruit with whipped cream. I'm a fan!

Nice folks working here. They really know how to help the younger kids figure out what to have. We took two of the grandkids here and they loved it. I asked for a Maker's Mark snowball but, unfortunately that is not available. We will put up the 5th star when that happens!

Exactly the best location ever , the strawberry freeze cakes are the best and the servers are very sweet 1000000000000/10

Amazing, but DON'T order the "thin ice." For some crazy reason the consistency of the "sno" changes with the "thin ice" Other than that it's amazing.

We love Bahama Buck's! This location has the friendliest employees and the best customer service! The flavors are always spot on!

Wow!! Best ever shaved ice plus. I love the sweetened condensed milk add on. And the value card is a nice perk.

Okay, I'm a fan. The soft snowy ice has grown on me since I first tried BB's and now my family has become frequent visitors. Try the new chocolate flavor. I know, sounds weird. Ask for sample, you'll see.

If I could give one stars I would the customer service is horrible ,I've been to this location at least four times within the past month I've never had worse customer service ,than at this location .I've been to the Bahama bucks in Lewisville,along with the Bahama bucks in Harker heights. I know the manager personally at the Harker heights location and I know what is acceptable and what is not acceptable for production at Bahama Buck's .This franchise location needs better training because I am highly disappointed and I will never come here again !!!!!!!

My husband is addicted!!!! I see it as an occasional indulgence, but he somehow replaced his nighttime scoop of ice cream with the Bahama Rama Mama! ... We take our own spoon and request no umbrella now because we simply have too many! Friendly staff and yummy treats.

This is one of the better Bahama Bucks I've been to! So far my order has always been correct, fast and the people working there are very friendly. My favorite flavor are Fuzzy Navel, White Coconut and Wedding Cake.

Me and my hubby went there today and he got the the regular size frozen lemonade and he absolutely loved it was "ravishing scrumdiliumptious "it made him a little bit hard. And I got the baby BRm birthday cake flavor it was good as always.

Kids fave place to go for sno cones! Love the sour flavors cones. It's a fun place to take kids out for a treat.

The employees are great and the snow cones are crazy awesome! I've been numerous times since it opened and have always had a pleasant experience. I also really appreciate the sugar free options. Now if they could just find a fix for brain freeze....

LOVEEEE this place. I was so happy when this location opened! Just make sure to get your snowball with extra juice, because sometimes they can be a little on the dry side. Only had a problem a few times and when I spoke with the manager he made sure to handle the problem swiftly!

I think it's as good as it gets for a snow cone. So 5 stars. Love this stuff. Love the atmosphere and love the selections. It's a little pricey for a snow cone but it's really a no fat dessert I suppose. The snow is so soft. Think frozen silk with your favorite flavor. Yum. Pay special attention to the spoons. They are thermochromatic!! For monosyllabic folks, that means the spoons change colors when put in your mouth and then changes back when put in the snow. :-) Fun.

Amazing service. All the employees are friendly courteous and kind. The "sno" was to die for. I highly recommend this location if you're in the market for great service and delicious desserts!

I'm rating this on the service. This location gets one star because my friend and I had to wait 15 minutes to just have someone talk to us. Not only were we standing at the front of the line but there were 6 people constantly walking past us, including the manager. I understand being busy and trying to get in everyone's orders, but it's certainly not as busy as Bahama Bucks usually is. Maybe one word from anyone saying that they'd be right with us could have showed some amount of attention to the guests but that did not happen. Honestly it shouldn't take that long to say at least one word to the customers at the front of the line when you are watching them stand there for so long.

Yummy! My kids beg everyday for Bahama bucks! So happy there is one in Allen now since we use to drive to Murphy to have to get one!

Love this place! Friendly staff that thanked us for coming in. Amazing sno-cones!!! We can't wait to try all the different flavors!! Prices are cheap and the place is fabulous for kids of all ages!!

Annoying that we ordered snow to throw a day in advance and it wasn't even made like they promised when we arrived to pick it up. The shaved ice is good though.

Lately this location his been horrible. The teenagers that all work there need training. They're not friendly, they barely put flavor like they used to (when you get near the middle it's pure white ice - no syrup), and constant inconsistent charges. Some days when I order a "baby" (stupid name) size I'll get charged around $3.28 and other times I'll get the same thing and her charged $4.48. I don't get it. My main thing is the charges constantly being different, train staff to use the register and all the staff including the new girl to cheer up. I go once every month but when I see that one new girl (who always uncharges by the way) I dread going in but feel too awkward to just casually walk out. Plus the tables have been sticky and dirty and there's stains all over the walls, especially on the wood and wall by the table under the shirt display. Guess they don't know how to clean either.

I would gladly give this place 5 stars, if it wasn't so hit or miss. Sometimes you go and you get a wonderful cup of syrupy goodness. Other times, it seems like they put two drops of syrup in the entire snow cone. I shouldn't take one spoonful of the snocone and see a white center. The other day, I asked the person working the window to add more syrup to my snocone and I seriously think he added one tiny drop. There was still no syrup in the bottom. At 2.58 cents for a baby size, I think you can afford to not be stingy with the syrup. Were it not for that recurring issue, I would give this place five stars easily!

always good! love the varieties and sugar free flavors, usually very nice and quick service
