Reviews
I've driven by this place so many times but it's in this little building that I never felt moved to stop by. It was my first time and I must say I'm mad I never thought to stop by before because I was not disappointed. First, they have a ton of flavors. You can mix two flavors so I ordered 1/2 margarita and 1/2 Georgia peach. It was SOOOOOO good. So much flavor and the ice was really soft. Best of all, the prices were super reasonable. I price for a regular was $3 and it was just the right amount for me. Perfect treat for a hot summer day!
It was my first time trying it and I've lived here 9 years ...I know I know lol. But it wont be my last. Very tasty, inexpensive , I love how there are so many options. The regular was a bit much so next time I'll get the kiddie size. Very cute stop.
I can not believe I have never wrote a review about Pelicans! I LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE!! It's perfect for a nice sunny or hot day. The snow cones are made with shaved ice and it's REALLY soft, not made with that chunky ice lime the original snow cones from back in the day. Pelicans have over 100 flavors to pick from. And ALL the flavors will taste JUST like what you picked. You can add cream or marshmallow to your snow cone for an extra 50 cents. Bring your dog because they have flavors for them too. They also have dye free flavors as well. OUTSIDE- there is no inside so all the seating is outside. They have actives like corn toss and connect four. With many colorful panic mode tables to seat. Now the parking can get kind of crazy especially on a busy day. Sometimes I just on the street.
Talk about flavors! Pelicans got them ALL..I mean all the way down to a Dill pickle flavor lol not something I would personally ever try but it's there if you dare. My absolute favorite thing to get is the condense milk topping on my snow-cone. I usually top it on a strawberry, a peach, or snow-cream flavor. I mean on a nice hot day you just can't go wrong cooking off with one of these tasty treats! Prices aren't bad either.
This location is my IKEA location. I always make a stop when I'm shopping at IKEA. There is normally a long line during the summer months. The parking is also very limited. I saw several near accidents in their parking area. Please just be patient when you're there. The employees work quickly and the SnoBalls are consistent. They have some cool flavor combinations to try that are posted on the side of the building. A lot of them deal with the university that is close by. This is location is where I had Pelican's for the first time. Pelican's SnoBalls 7649 N Tryon St Charlotte, NC 28262
