This was a wonderful experience. I have only known snowballs to be crushed ice with red or blue flavoring. THIS RIGHT HERE is totally better. I tried the Mai Thai flavor and omgeeee was it good. It had lime, pineapples ๐Ÿ and cherries ๐Ÿ’. You can also get a large variety of toppings like, nerds, whip cream, ice cream, and marshmallows just to name a few. This was a snowball B More style ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Had an order to pick up on Friday night drove 40 mins through the city and they were closed at 8:35 the hours on their door said they were supposed to close at 9. I wasted so much gas. I will never return because it was very bad business especially since I was in my pick up time frame.

The snowball was full of flavor down to the last drip! The beignets where hot and tasty! The shop is located in a great location. You have a park with a playground, basket ball/tennis court, and soccer field across the street. A small pub on the other corner. Also Fort McHenry within walking distance which is a great location for picnics along the water!

This place is excellent since our family had to be up in Baltimore due to a family related matter. So, we went to Fort McHenry and it was a warm day with nice weather. Glad we saw it and now we know why there was a line. But it was well worth waiting for since everyone was super friendly and the whole neighborhood I never had visited was really amazing. Highly recommend! Thanks to the friendly hardworking staff making us feel welcomed.

Really good snow ones and ice/ice cream coffee. Coffee is super smooth. Nothing is over powering sweet. Kids and parents enjoyed it. Literally hit the spot on a hot summer afternoon after visiting Fort McHenry. Friendly staff with tons of smiles.

A local community gem! Growing up as a child snow cones were always the prize when we went to the national zoo. Now I can create my own delight! This place sits in a Baltimore neighborhood on the corner. Parking was easy. I believe a park across the street. They have a walk up window to keep their staff safe! Plenty of flavors to choose from. Pricing was affordable and great sizes to choose from. Im glad we decided to see what the buzz was about!

Do you remember the snowcones you had as a child, that only tasted like sweet and got bland halfway through? You wonโ€™t find those here. Ice Queens has an overwhelming amount of vibrant and colourful flavors that all individually stand out. They use just enough syrup to flavor the ice all the way through until the last bite. It is the perfect treat on a hot day, and something unique other than ice cream. What I would recommend are the topping options; the marshmallow in particular is a gooey, succulent creme that really thickens the snowcone nicely if blended together.

We Love Ice Queens!! Great flavor options and fun toppings. The old-fashioned cream makes my snowball so tasty. What is that stuff anyway?? How do you get that ice so fluffy? Lets talk about the people that work there: super friendly with excellent smiles!! Much love to the Ice Queens!!โค

While I am new to the Baltimore area (two months now), my partner has lived in the region her whole life and she has been teaching me about the awesomeness of snowballs. Tried a few different places but after one time at Ice Queens it is the only place we go now.Super friendly staff, wonderful location, great selection as well as quality and price. We have made the hour round trip three times now and I wouldnt bother going anywhere else. Well worth the drive to be among such a welcoming and diverse staff and customers.Five stars all the way around! We are thrilled to be Ice Queen customers!

My son has a snowball trailer that we operate out of Annapolis (2 Aces Ice Chest). I was fortunate enough to be in the area for work and got a snowball from the Ice Queens. It was SIMPLY AMAZING!!! I enjoyed it so much that I had to take a trip and take my son there and he was EQUALLY IMPRESSED with the snowball. It was DEFINITELY WORTH THE TRIP.

Ice Cream and service was fantastic. Wasnโ€™t a big fan of being randomly forced to add a tip when the person before me didnโ€™t receive the same treatment. Once I paid for my ice cream the cashier told me that I had to do either a 10%, 15%, or 20% tipโ€ฆ very odd.

Came here after visiting the fort. they had lots of options and will recommend something for you depending on your taste. I think they opened relatively recently and has clearly already built quite a following. Even though Iโ€™m not a fan of this kind of dessert I can see other, especially kids, enjoying this!

Kold Kiss may be a Baltimore tradition, but the ingredients these women use put all other snowballs to shame, and at prices no higher than many places. Beautiful setting on a Locust Point corner.

Snowballs were flavorful but I felt overpriced. I paid $14 for 2 medium Ice Queens which is their signature dessert. Snowball, ice cream at the bottom, and 1 topping. There was very little ice cream might I add...toppings was skimpy as well. It was good but not GREAT.... my daughter said she preferred Ritas .

Ice Queens is a great place. I love the snowballs and the selection is amazing. I believe you should add more toppings, but the current selection is great. And I do love toppings. I totally recommend this place for anyone looking to cool down and relax, in these chaotic, hot times. The line can be long, but everything is worth it when you finally get that delicious snowball! Thank you so much for being a great addition to the neighborhood. In addition, if you see this, what will you do over the winter? Hot cocoa stand?

A.

The syrup for the snowballs is perfect and not watered down as the little stands do most of the time.E.
