Bahama Bucks

This update is not a positive one! Because there is no other place in Midland to get these type of treats & my family loves their frozen drinks/​treats, I find myself regretting patronizing this location on a regular basis! The confusing thing is that the Odessa location is owned by the same person, yet there is a huge discrepancy b/​w the service & quality of product coming from the 2 locations. I guess the Odessa employees have more pride in their jobs & more respect for their employer & customers?!
My complaint tonight 11÷27÷15. Someone needs to teach the condescending twit that was working, basic 3^rd grade multiplication! (btw «twit» def annoyingly foolish person.) The temperature was 34 degrees, the FALSE ADVERTISEMENT states Polar Punches 2x, 3x, & 4x punches. Therefore, when I purchase 5 items (to the tune of $ 18), that normally warrants 5 punches, at 34 degrees/​3x punches, 5×3=15. She argued w/​me & said it was only 3 additional punches per purchase, BUT SHE DIDNT SAY PER CUSTOMER OR PER DAY! So based on her idiotic logic, IF I had purchased each item 1 at a time, w/​3 additional punches per purchase, ie 4 punches, that would have been 20 not 15. Instead I got 8! That is false advertisement, it doesn’t say 2+, 3+, & 4+ nor does it have fine print stating any thing different! To add to the insult, we were the ONLY customers w/​2 workers, they had plenty of time to produce a good product. Instead we got our 3 frozen cherry limeades as usual, chunky, poorly blended, and under filled. Photo included. This product is so inconsistently produced. 1 time it’s all cherry no lime, other times it’s too much ice & watered down, and it’s ALWAYS CHUNKY & poorly blended! I wish someone would open up a competing business, b/​c I’m sick of wasting my money at this place!

Such a refreshing treat! Nice, up & coming, busy location in Midland. I don’t like how the traffic flow of the drive-​thru runs into the parking area (which can fill up fast), so sometimes that can be a pain.
But I like coming for smoothies & snowcones. They also have frozen «coffee-​like» beverages available. This was also a fun place to come & sit on the patio & hang out with friends while enjoying nice cold treats.

It’s a good treat on a summer day but not my favorite. One time their RO system didn’t work and they used city water… Yeah disgusting. They didn’t even warn any of us before ordering AND paying. It’s a long wait as well.

There was a young lady who came out and took my money before I got to the window. Then claimed she didn’t when I got to the window. The girl at the window realized the mistake and the other girl didn’t even apologize. Word of warning, DON’T PAY UNTIL YOU GET TO THE WINDOW! Very unprofessional!

Great smoothies! Friendly staff! Convenient drive-​thru! I wish they had some healthier options though…

Best shaved ice around. Make sure you add cream to any flavor. It’s not cheap ($ 3.25-$ 4.00) and be prepared to wait a while; it’s usually worth the wait.

The drinks here are pretty damn good. It was quick when we pulled up. The only big was the high school kid working the drive through was pretty impersonal and didn’t care. There were about 5 high school kids shooting the shit in there, this kid was the only one working. Pretty unprofessional.

Definitely one of Midland’s favourites, when it’s time to treat the family, most people come here, it could get pretty busy at times with long lines, I might have given the fifth star if it had better seating.
As mentioned in other reviews, you may not go wrong with most of the items and flavours available.
Parking is easy, I’m sure most people are returning customers.

Worst experience in Midland so far! It was horrible. It hurts me to write this review.
At first I would always drive by Bahama Bucks but it just looked like an abandoned building to me. One day I looked at the menu and realized they had a plethora of tasty treats from smoothies, snow cones, and parfaits. I was so excited for my boyfriend and I to try the smoothies.
I arrived at Bahama Bucks at 9:45 keep in mind i’m new to Midland so I parked so I could take a look at the menu. Another car arrived at the same time as me but went through the drive thru (smart idea). It was VERY chilly that night… it was Dec. 19^th. So i’m standing at the window waiting to order. The girl definitely saw me but she was helping the car that pulled up to the window. So i patiently waited while she made his snow cones. Once she completed their order do you know that she walked over to the window and PULLED THE BLINDS DOWN RIGHTIN FRONT OF ME!!! I knocked on the window because I thought this can’t be happening. I know she saw me standing here in the cold for the last 12 minutes!
So I call my boyfriend and let him know that we won’t be having our smoothies tonight. He tells me to drive through the drive through. I drive to the window and she’s pulled the blinds there also. This girl was SUPER RUDE! I drove to Sonic’s and grabbed us two cherry limeades. W
While I was on my way home, my boyfriend called Bahama Bucks and he spoke with the manager. She said she was so sorry and the girl would be written up. She also said i could come in that Monday to get a free drink. Only problem with that was I was leaving Monday morning to go to Los Angeles. So I never got my free drink.
HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I love this place! I try to make sure to stop by when I’m in town.
Wedding cake is my favorite flavor but you can’t go wrong with any flavor here.
