Big Daddy's Ice Cream — Restaurant in Corpus Christi

When you're at the aquarium or USS Lexington, or dining at the Pier 99 restaurant it's hard to miss the loudspeaker announcements that constantly repeat this place's offerings and all their flavors. My mother and I thought we'd give it a shot. We thought it'd be a small ice cream place, but it's a small window/hole in the wall in a small mom and pop hotel. The older woman behind the window was indifferent but she did seem to be from another country. They also had a plastic barrier in front of the window which made it slightly difficult to understand. It's worth noting they also only take cash but they also accept cashapp payments if you are into that. We got a soft serve cone which are $5, a little steep but the amount in the cone was large. The soft serve was okay, but definitely was watered down, but it was still a good way to cool off as we got to our car. In the end, if I was in the area again and I felt I wanted ice cream I would return, but I would definitely not drive out there exclusively for it. If you're after good soft serve though, I'm sorry but this...

My girlfriend enjoyed her banana snow cone. My chocolate ice cream had large ice crystals in it and I ended up throwing half of it away. If you're coming off the ship, it's a decent place to stop for a snow cone.

$3.50 for regular snow cone and $3.50 for chocolate ice cream at the time of writing. Cash only and no dedicated seating area. There are benches at the Lexington you can use if...

The lady that works this place is extremely rude. This is NOT a kid friendly place by any means simply because of her attitude. When the window opened a horrible smell came through the window which disgusted us all and ruined the appetite for everyone. There is no telling how nasty it is inside! Save your money and time! Not worth a dime! Annoying loud speaker repeating itself over and over...
