Bahama Buck's - Amarillo (Bell Street)

Always a treat!! Kaitlyn, the rest of the employees and the manager are super sweet, just like my wedding cake snow cone! Super polite and pleasant. I’m a pretty socially anxious goofball of a person but they were patient and kind! Timely and professional and way past cool! Sonic Say: Thank you! ❤️

Smells of sewer inside. I don't know how people were eating inside. The ice that was used had a nasty chlorinated taste like they had just used frozen tap water. You could only taste it in the ice where the syrup didn't reach, but it was weird.

Edited to add: after having a gross experience, I looked up their health reports and they haven’t been in compliance with proper sewage disposal, food storage, or cleanliness since at least 2022, which means they are aware and don’t care. AVOID. We used to always stop here on our way through Amarillo. This time we went inside and immediately got hit with the smell of sewage. Everything was filthy — beyond a typical drive thru — but the smell was so bad. I figured maybe it was a new problem, but I see reviews here going back for months reporting the same issue. Our snow cones tasted like the lines had not been cleaned for ever — mildewy and gross. I don’t know how this place hasn’t been shut down. Y’all know this isn’t sanitary or healthy. Close and fix your issues instead of making your customers sick! You can’t run a snow cone stand until your doodoo issues are solved.

The young girls that work here could obviously care less about customer service, every table was dirty and I ended up just throwing mine out because it wasnt very good anyway.

All was really good. But it was very dirty inside. Flies and our shoes were sticking to the ground... But, it is snowcones, so.... things might get a lil sticky! 😆😆

Nice girls behind the counter but the place smelled like sewer water..3 teenagers walked in, went to the bathroom and walked straight out as fast as they could and were commenting loudly about how they did not want to be in that bathroom with the way it smelled. It was a permanent stink in the whole place. Old water like. Every single table was dirty and the floors too. I went to check out the area with the crayons for my kids and there was cob webs all over it. So I looked around and noticed the windows were nasty, cob webs and bugs all in the corners of them too. It wasn’t even busy in there either so really no reason for at least one employee to not come out behind the counter and clean for those of us who want to sit down. One lady started cleaning her own table and making comments about how gross it was in there for the prices that are charged. There were no napkins in any of the containers. We grabbed our baby wipes and started cleaning up our own table when we were done. (We always try our best to make less work for any waitress or anyone who may have to come clean up behind us) I actually worked this location when I was 17 and the owner at the time (a man from New York, I can’t member his name) would have had our you know what’s for allowing it to be that gross inside. I’m not sure if he’s still the owner but if he is, you might want to stop by more often and maybe take a look around. Nice employees with great personalities, but the cleanliness needs major work.

A rather fancy snow cone operation. The syrups seem to be a step above. A lot of snow cone for the size but add ons can be expensive.

Very polite...very efficient

Terrible service! We stood at the counter for several minutes before anyone came to take our order. The girls already making snow cones didn’t even acknowledge our presence. When we first came in, it was dead. No one was inside, except one other woman. When a girl came from the back to take the order, she was rude. As though she was being inconvenienced. The last sno cone ordered was Pina coloda. We waited over 15 minutes for the sno cones to get ready and we didn’t get the pina coloda. When asked about it, we were told “we’re out and i never heard that.” I was with 5 other people who heard me order it. Aside from this, the place smells awful! Like dirty shoes or something…. The sno cones were sloppy, we didn’t receive our sonic spoons for the sonic sno cones, and it was altogether bad experience. I won’t be back!

Always a long line but worth it along with the fact they give alot back to the community.

This used to be a great location, we’d go almost every weekend! These past few visits have been not so bueno, they always mess up our order and it’s just never right. The wait time is not worth it anymore. Tonight we ordered 2 sour patch kids blue raspberry with extra sour sand, they forget the sour patch sauce, there was no sour sand, and absolutely no flavor at all. Once you get to the middle it’s a more concentrated blue color but still just tastes like nothing but regular ole ice, now I feel stupid for spending $6 for a cup of regular flavorless shaved ice🤣 next time we’re in the mood for Bahama bucks we will definitely be trying the other location, most likely will not be returning to this one unfortunately. We did say something about our order being wrong at the window to which the girl stood there and said “uhhhhh” we weren’t in the mood to wait another 20 minutes with the line already wrapped around the building for another order to be potentially wrong again so we just called it a night and left!

Fantastic shaved ice as always. I always go to Bahama Buck's every time I'm in Amarillo. The only thing that could make it better, is the tables are often a little sticky.

I was nicely welcomed in by a friendly girl named Kaitlyn. Everyone was so nice and friendly helping me out choosing a snow cone. Definitely coming back and bringing the whole family 5/5 Stars.

Got in line at 9:47. 5 were cars ahead of us. The open light was on and bright. Got right up to the order menu and a girl walked out at 10:10 and said sorry we are closed. I said i have been in line for over 20 minutes. Her reply was “Sorry we didn’t see you.” They refused to take our order and literally laughed us about it. Worst service ever.

I just had my first Bahama bucks experience last night and I will definitely be back! The employee that was at the window's name was Rylee and she had brown hair... she was so sweet and helpful when I was putting in my order! Everything we got turned out fantastic! You need to hire more employees like her! 🤗
