New Orleans · Est. Local Favorite
Hand-shaved snow cones, bold flavors, and that unmistakable NOLA spirit — right here on N. Claiborne Ave.
Our Story
Sidney's Snowballs sits on N. Claiborne Ave like a little pocket of relief on a humid afternoon. We started with a simple idea: snow cones done right — fine as powder, flavored with real taste, served with the warmth this city is famous for.
Every batch is hand-shaved from the block, layered with syrups that hit different, and presented in that classic paper cone that says you mean business about something cold and sweet. No shortcuts. No nonsense. Just good snowballs, the way New Orleans deserves them.
The Menu
From the classics everyone knows to bold flavors you didn't know you needed — there's a snowball with your name on it.
The one that starts it all — bright, sweet, and impossible to eat just one.
Electric blue with a tang that makes your cheeks pucker in the best way.
Clean, sharp, and refreshing — like a lemon squeeze wrapped in snow.
A deep, jammy blend of berries that tastes like summer in a cone.
Creamy, tropical, and subtly sweet — a island escape without the flight.
Sun-ripened mango flavor that hits right in the middle of paradise.
Our signature — a NOLA exclusive that's part blue, part magic, all yours.
Can't decide? Go full spectrum with a tri-color mountain of flavor.
