This place is trash.. Me and my niece went to treat ourselves to snowcones at Tads lastnight (7-16-2022) about 8:30pm after running errands man I really wish we didn't... my niece ordered a green flavor with sour spray when she tasted it she said it tastes like soap I thought she was just being picky so I took a bite and sure enough they sprayed cleaner on her snow cone!. Now I understand mistakes happen when I told the girl she didn't aknowlege it she acted dumbfounded like we were in the wrong then offered to remake it. She said "no sour spray this time" And my niece was happy... my mouth tasted like chemicals I couldn't even eat my snow cone so when we left she said the bottom of her cup still tasted like chemicals... so it seems like they just removed the top. The more I think about it the more upset I get. There was alot of kids there what if that happened to my younger nephew or someone's baby? Please watch your chemicals! This should never happen. I called to reach out to manager he said it wasn't true never happened and hung up on me. So be careful this business does not care about customers or their safety. The whole thing is messed up but could have been so much worse. 409 is what they use he told me.

Flavors taste different than they used too. Displeased so far this season especially with the price increase.

I love coming here with my family. Love how nice everyone is and how it’s always yummy

Always fantastic...Oh, so many choices. Try the coffee one...surprisingly perfect!

The service is as friendly as it is quick, and it’s very quick. There is a vast array of flavors; I’m presently partial towards Peach Berry. My only complain is that they aren’t open all year!

Tons of flavor options and the prices aren't too bad either! What's helpful is they list what flavors make up the special ones and have little models of the cup sizes so you know about how much you'll get. I like that they have the sour spray but it seems barely noticable or strong at all - try combining it with an already sour flavor if you want to go that route. They've got some benches nearby that make it nice and convenient to sit and enjoy it, or you can eat while walking to the shopping area nearby.

The biggie is huuggeee

Really great place!!!!

Perfect refreshment on a hot summer day!
