| - My mate & I saw this place on Groupon, so we went to try it, as frozen yogurt lovers. When we arrived we realised the coupon was no longer on groupon, but figured we were already here so why not. The staff member was very friendly but seemed to be trying pretty hard to sell it. Funnily enough, he was only really talking to my friend, and not to me. Unlike a lot of other frozen yogurt places, they don't have someone controlling and handing out the sampling cups, so sampling wasn't a weird awkward fumble of asking for more cups if you wanted to try something. All of their flavours taste like their base plain that has been altered, and their plain tastes really good. I tried all of them except for pumpkin, which makes enough sense given the context that I don't like pumpkin or pumpkin-flavoured things. The flavours I remember them having were coconut, dark chocolate, apple cider, pumpkin, pomegranate, and plain. All of the non-pumpkin ones were really, really good!
I ended up getting their dark chocolate and coconut. I added Oreo and graham cracker dust. It was very tasty. I would be careful about adding anything too sweet to your mix if you don't like that complementary emphasis on how tart the plain normally is- it isn't as apparent until you put something in their like mango boba, a burst of sweetness in your mouth. I like the tanginess, and I think most frozen yogurt lovers do, but if you are looking for something more along the lines of an ice cream replacement, make sure you take samples and think it through- don't just jump in. Some people aren't prepared!
All of their fruit is cut the morning of, apparently, and they will cut a banana for you if you want to put some banana in your yogurt. All of their yogurt is also gluten free, comparatively less calories than many other places, slightly more expensive than other places by ounce (40-some cents- where I'm from, prices stick around 30 cents), and they boast that their probiotics actually do something, and that other peoples' probiotics are useless. The only probiotics I know about are Yakult's, so I won't even feign having a proper perception of that from a frozen yogurt standpoint. None of their frozen yogurt flavours are dairy free.
They don't have parking because they're in the strip of Mill off of fifth. Your best bets are street parking or the public parking on fifth. We went on a Sunday, so it was free parking. I don't know if that's normal. You may not see it driving by- we didn't, we were distracted by the presence of a Fatburger or something. There's a Starbucks on the same corner, in case that helps.
