| - I'm a major FRO-YO fan and had been meaning to try this tucked away little gem for quite a while now and believe me, I am SO GLAD that I did. Stopped in last week with my sons after hitting up the Skechers store for some new kicks. I have to say I am so sorry that it's taken me so long to try this place out. Of all the FRO-YO places I've tried, this is hands down--THE BEST! So why not a 5-star rating?
What I didn't like:
*They don't do school fundraisers. According to the guy working the counter, the owner doesn't want the hassle. That's too bad because with this little gem in a tucked away corner of Westgate, school fundraisers would be a great way to get the word out about the business and help the community at the same time.
*According to front counter guy, they also don't have a frequent guest punch card or anything to encourage loyalty.
What I liked:
*They DO use YELP to give discounts and if you are a Facebook Fan of theirs, they have all sorts of discounts as well. Use the "check-in" features on Yelp's mobile app and get your discounts or mention the FB discounts and you're golden.
*Awesome selection of FRO-YO. I had Carmel Pecan and Peanut Butter. OMG they were to die for. If I could have put my mouth under the spiget of Carmel Pecan, that would have been an excellent way to die. My boy had the mixed berry sorbet and he just loved it.
*Excellent selection of toppings. From nuts to berries, candy to Trix cereal, there is something for every pallet to top your FRO-YO.
*Fun decor. One wall is actually textured to look like ocean waves. The furniture is comfy and modern.
*Nice staff. While I was sad about the school fundraiser and loyalty answers, the counter guy was polite, friendly, courteous and thanked me three times for stopping in.
So, if you are all about helping local businesses like I am...hit up Ocean Blue. I'm going tomorrow so maybe I'll see you there!
