A great local business with unbeatable prices! They’ve been here more than 2 decades. This business offers it all: snow cones, strawberries with cream, elotes, and all sorts of munchies. My uncle loves to ask the employee to surprise him with something, and he’ll make my uncle a unique combination. The family that runs the business is dedicated to their customers, even open on Easter Sunday! Follow their Facebook page to stay updated on all the latest announcements. They do take cash online so he mindful of that. Definitely returning for some more corn in the near future.
