Ice & Bites Cafe

I tried the taiyaki with lavender icecream and it was so GOOD! The staff was so sweet, and the amount of games and the chill vibes are definitely fun!

This place is seriously a perfect little hidden gem. I love Boba Tea and have been in search of a good spot in Orlando. This place is it!!! The drinks are delicious, and the Sno is amazing! We even had some macarons to top it off (I recommend the Crème brûlée one!). They also have board games which makes it a perfect little date spot :)

Shaved ice is really like snow cream. It is so good! I got some fried chicken dumplings. They were really good with their sweet soy sauce. I also got the piña colada with boba and it was super good and refreshing. My husband got the peach tea with boba which was also really yummy! The space was really nice and clean. They have games out so you can hang out and play as well.

Very nice boba place with other great snacks. Love the tayaki waffle fish ice cream cone. Must try the coffee with cotton candy and coffee ice cream

This place is great! The drinks and food is super yummy and the ladies who work here are very friendly! My daughters and I had a great time.

I NEEDED to try this place after my friends sent me a picture of their ice cream taiyaki dessert.
Ice & Bites is a cute little café that serves all kinds of icy desserts as well as hot bites. David is SUPER nice and friendly to all the customers. He really tries to please everyone who tries their treats.
They have boba tea, Pat Bing Soo (Korean shaved ice), macarons, and a lot of other yumminess on their menu… but I was set on the ice cream Taiyaki.
Taiyaki is a waffle-​like dough that is pressed into a fish shape. Theirs is filled with your choice of a single flavor ice cream. For $ 1, you can add 2 choice toppings and a sauce. I got coffee ice cream with a fruit skewer and a Pocky stick. I did skip on the sauce. The taiyaki is HUGE! I do suggest sharing with a friend. The dough is so moist and goes great with the chill of ice cream. The fruit on the skewer is really fresh (blue berries, strawberries, and black berries), and on the bottom, there were even some fruit mochi. I LOVED my dessert.
I definitely recommend coming to Ice & Bites for a chill time! There’s couches and single chairs for you and friends to hang out. They have lots of board games and cards for you to play while you’re there. I definitely want to come back to try their boba tea.

Stumbled upon this spot browsing for a cool treat. This place was exactly what I was looking for. The staff was polite and hospitable. The food was great and prices were too. My daughter had ice blended taro milk tea and my wifey had taiyaki with taro ice cream both were good. I had the taro sno and it was AMAZING.
I ordered parmesan fries with spicy mayo and chicken bites with the spicy candied ginger sauce. Those sauces went well with the food. Give it a shot, try one of the sno (shaved ice).

I’ve been plenty of times to know this place deserved the rating a gave it. The interior is really modern and comfortable, they tend to play kpop music (which I like). I have only tasted the taro shaved ice, but that’s probably because I’m obsessed with taro. I like when my desserts are just right with their sweetness, not too sweet to give me a headache. This place always satifies my sweet craving.
The boba teas are also really good and well mixed. I had the coconut taro slushy and it was probably one of the best boba’s I have ever tasted. I haven’t tried their food yet, but I’ll leave that for next time!

I Love Ice & Bites. I’ve been here about four to five times or more! Each time I try something new and I love it. Like I’ve always said; I have an extremely sweet tooth and this place satisfies my cravings. Everything in their menu is fantastic. I haven’t had their food yet though.
Their shave ice is amazing and this was the first place I ever tried shaved ice. It is such a great idea and such a good threat! I’ve had the Taro which is fantastic and their Rocky Road Snow Tea creation and that one was also fantastic! Shave ice is so refreshing and light in texture.
Their Boba Teas are actually one of the best ones I’ve had in Orlando. My favorite definitely has to be the coconut avocado blended boba tea. The avocado makes it so smooth and creamy while the coconut gives it great flavor. Their macarons are also very very good. Very well made.
I recently tried their Taiyaki ice cream and it is sooooooo good. The freshly made, warm taiyaki waffle matches perfectly with the Taro ice cream. I like it with the condense milk sauce, pocky, and hazel stick. I highly recommend this.
I am definitely look forward to going back and having one of everything! hahaha

Honestly Ice & bites café is a true gem. Their tayaki’s (although not being the true traditional style) have a cool modern twist. I ordered a tayaki with green tea ice cream, which was above my expectations! I’m originally from Italy so finding an ice cream with the same texture that reminds me of home is wonderful My friend ordered the tayaki with their lavander ice cream which was also very good. The ice cream had a nice floral taste that wasn’t to overwhelming. They also have exceptionally good coffee too.
This place is truly ¹⁰⁄₁₀ and I’d recommend to anyone.

Boba and tea bring out the Asian in me, and with that being said, all expectations are exceeded here.
Basic is as basic as I could possibly be, meaning sticking to my go to flavor, Taro. Most of the time, my boba has an artificial powdery taste that comes along with it. Drinks here says otherwise, as I chugged it down in no time with the unnoticed artificial powder.
Snack menu includes chicken bites, chicken dumplings, jumbo wings, macarons, and tofu bites.
With the decent selection to choose from, board games, and friendly service, they have my loyalty.

I come here for the shaved ice. My favorite ones are taro and cookies & cream. I’ve never had shaved ice until I went to this place. They call it sno because the texture of the shaved reminds you of snow.
I also have gotten macaroons. The macaroons were tasty but I think they are too pricey for what you get.
This place also has board games and is kept clean. The service has always been friendly. Forget getting ice cream, go out and try some sno!

Those who know me know I am an avid tea drinker and that I am practically obsessed with boba tea. On that note, this is by far the best boba tea place in Orlando and I’ve personally never had anything that compares to it. What makes this place so unique is that they have a large variety of blends that can be iced or blended (slushy/​icee). My personal favorites are the Pretty in Pink and Strawberry Lychee.
On top of delicious drinks, the prices are very fair: there is no extra charge for the first add-​in (boba, pearls, jelly, etc.) and they do a punchcard system. I appreciate the fact that they let you combine your punchcards and personally I’m already on my 7^th punch card.
If all that is not enough, the employees are amazing as well! I’ve never had a bad experience with anyone who works here and they are always trying to help. I was extremely impressed when I saw a customer ask to add a little more sugar to their half consumed tea and the employee went above and beyond and gave him a brand new cup of tea.
The place itself is very clean, pleasant, and entertaining. I myself come here 2 – 3 times a week and will never grow old of it. It’s a tea lover’s paradise.

Discovering this place made me happier than ever. One of my best friends got me into boba in New York and I was addicted ever since, but then I came back to Florida and couldn’t find any locations offering the same. I moved to Orlando to attend UCF and knowing I have a perfect place for bubble tea right down the street is exciting.
On my first visit I was thrilled by the relaxed décor and extensive menu (cute little bites priced $ 2-​$ 4 and other yummy snacks, def worth it). The girl who helped me out was really sweet and let us take our time, she also helped us navigate our options. I didn’t have a hard time trying to pick what I wanted– iced almond milk tea with boba. I was expecting it to be ice cold upon my first try but it felt rather warm at first until the following 10 sips or so. I think it has something to do with the fact that they use very little ice (unless it’s a blended drink, that’ll definitely give you a delicious brain freeze). Otherwise it was really good. Another plus: they have loads of board and card games for you to enjoy with your friends. I played Uno ’cause it’s my favorite!
My second visit, I had the iced caramel latte milk tea. Apart from that flavor not being my favorite, I had the same issue with the warm-​then-​cold sensation so for future reference I might just ask for extra ice. My friend had a blended dirty chai milk tea and it was absolutely delicious.
I can’t wait to go back over and over again. Their cute loyalty program is perfect and gives you a free drink once you get 8 stamps (one per drink or snow purchase). So glad it’s so close to my school and residence. I have yet to try the snow out but I’m looking forward to it and the rest of my visits @ Ice & Bites!

I have been here two times. I didn’t really go for the boba because I wanted shaved ice both times. Their shaved ice is not bad for Orlando area-​close to ucf. If you are craving shaved ice and do not want to go out far, I would recommend this place. However, if you want viet ice coffee, this is not the place. It did not taste like viet ice coffee and not that great. I would like to try their Taiyaki but I don’t have that much money. Low budget college student here. They have a lot of great games to play with friends. They have the Korean Russian Roulette game and they also have it in hello kitty. This game is also seen on Running Man.
They also have reward punch hole card, if they don’t mention about it, ask for one.

Dawg, this shaved ice is nice! Def worth the price! Come here after pei weis overly salty and dry rice! I will be back here, perhaps more than twice!
Cute décor, clean, and tucked away from the main ucf scene, this adorable little joint has an interior décor that puts Five Fx to shame. The taro shaved ice was the bomb! The macarons were soft and delicious like… you know, macarons. There is k pop music videos on the tv. You can play a fun game of guessing who the males and the female singers are. If you pick up a bigun at the world of beer who perhaps went 50 pounds over the freshmen 15, this may be an appropriate place for her to engage in some sweet calories and get in the mood before you take her back to the crib.

This place is centrally located in the UCF area in the same plaza as World of Beer and Pei Wei. When you walk in you will notice the K-​Pop music playing on all the TVs. This is a café and boba tea place that also have food items such as taiyaki, dumplings, egg rolls, chicken bites, wings, etc. I come here for the taiyaki with chicken. It is the Asian modern take on chicken and waffle! The taiyaki is fluffy, crispy, and quite delicious with the chicken bites drizzle with «maple» syrup.
Personally, the four star is due to my obsession with chicken and waffle. Plus it cracks me up that it looks like Darwinism in reverse (fish eat chicken… oh what???). Other than that, the boba drinks here are okay. Boba is too chewy for me. I feel like I am eating plastic.
By the way, there are also macarons, shaved snow, yogurt, coffee, and frozen slushies/​smoothies too.

Haven’t discovered a good boba/​tea place in the Orlando area so I was very excited to try this place out! The environment is light and airy with a theme of pastel colors.
There were so many things to choose from, from milk teas to hot teas, to shaved ice and macaroons! I ended up going with the taro berry tea that was recommended by the worker and a passion fruit macaroon.
The taro berry tea was really good, it almost tasted like a not-​so-​thick yogurt although I thought it was a tad too sweet and I like sweet things! Honestly, I could’ve done without the macaroon. It was okay, I just didn’t like the flavor overall. I would recommend the spiced chai taro tea, especially if you are vanilla chai tea lover! My friend ordered it and it was the perfect amount of sweetness.
I would come back to try more things especially the shaved ice!

I can’t say I’ve tried all the bubble/​snow ice places in Orlando, but this one is so far my TOP FAV.
Their shaved snow is only $ 4 for a small, with as much toppings I’d like! What a good deal! Not to mention they have lots of toppings: many types of jelly, fruits, mochi, candies, red bean and sauces too. The service is amazing as well. I like green tea flavor, but I like it strong, and when I asked the guy about their green tea snow ice, he asked if I wanted to try it. I was surprised as it’s the first time someone offered a sample of shaved snow. I totally understand that it’s not like ice cream you can just scope out a tiny spoonful. This guy has to replace the block of snow, starts the machine, which shaves out way more than a sample portion. I know it’s a big hassle so I’ve never asked, and therefore was moved that he offered. I didn’t find the green tea strong enough and opted for the mango, which did have a good flavor. The snow is more Korean style (I didn’t ask but judging from the k-​pop it’s Korean owned?), powdery and light.
They also have macarons. If you are taking it to go, they pack it in a cute little plastic bag. Compare to other places, their filling is really thick. The shell is not as crunchy as the best macarons (think Ladurée) but overall it’s good quality, I won’t hesitate buying again for myself or as gift.
The slightly dimmed interior is very clean comfortable. Delicious food, great price, friendly staff. What more can I ask for? Uh, would you guys like to open one down in Miami? With $ 4 shaved snow, I would totally say bye-​bye to Yogurtland and Coldstone.

My FAVORITE place to get boba tea!
Modern décor, clean environment, very friendly staff, and fresh boba made throughout the day (as opposed to being cooked advance and re-​heated like other boba places I’ve been to).
Very fun, trendy place to meet up with friends!

As we all know by now, what formally used to be known as «SnoTea» is now «Ice & Bites Café». It has the same boba, snow, but now it is a small selection of snack available to purchase. The snacks are like wings, fries, and dumplings.
I like that this place is clean and the boba is relatively average pricing and not too expensive. The boba is always on point though. It’s never mushy or too hard. The texture is what its suppose to be, chewy but still remains it spherically shape. I always get the Mango Lychee Green Tea with boba. I’ve added grass jelly once and that was interesting. A large one of those will set you back 4 dollars and change.
I’ve only tried the snacks once and its was okay… for a snack. I mean nothing awesome or best wings ever but if you gotta nibble and chill there while watching some Korean Music Videos then sure its alright.
The snow is the same and is light and airy.
They also have Happy Hour M-​F i think from 4 – 7 or 5 – 7? Something like that where its either half price of 20% off. I hardly go that way so I couldn’t take advantage of it but its a good chunk off when you got that boba craving.
This place is a keeper for me.
