Rock-A-Billy’s Shaved Ice

Jun 19, 2010 by     2 Comments    Posted under: Austin Eats

This is the first summer for this funky shaved ice trailer, and, as expected, it’s already getting rather crowded due to the merciless heat. Whether patrons enjoy the picturesque scene of a retro trailer against Texas farmland or the shaved ice itself (likely both), this oasis within the hot dryness of summer is a good place to cool off.

Rock-A-Billy’s was founded around October of last year and should stay nestled into its cozy nook (east of the Dell Diamond on Hwy. 79) until this October since—let’s face it—snow cone weather lasts longer in Texas than other states.

Rock-A-Billy’s has over 30 flavors of delicious snow cones, including the usual as well as more unusual picks such as wedding cake, cheesecake, sangria and tiger’s blood. Tiger’s blood is a mix of cherry, strawberry and coconut that will turn your tongue a blood red, hence the name. The prices for the snow cones are reasonable ranging from $1.25 for a small to $2.75 for an extra large.

Aside from the chance to indulge in something that usually only comes in some sort of cart or stand during hot times of the year, this shows that Round Rock too can provide a nice addition to the food trailer phenomenon.
