After reading mixed reviews, I didn't really have high expectations for Menchies so when I saw it, I was impressed! I didn't realize that Menchies was a chain that started in California.
It was super cute! I loved their cute little logo! and the spoons were too cute to throw away! They should totally have some type of recycle program for them (um, not as in rewashing and reusing, but some kinda recycling. Berry Chill in Chicago had a program like that) And the employees were really friendly!
Menchies is a self serve froyo place that charges 45 cent per ounce, comparable to other places. They have a points card where you can get $5 off when you get 50 points.
As far as the froyo itself, it was a little watery ie maybe not cold enough? It seemed as though it was melting. It was tasty enough that if I lived in Cleveland I would probably visit there often. The only thing is that I didn't see any mochi in the toppings (Although I admit I was so busy looking around the place that I didn't really look hard for the mochi so it may have been there and I just missed it).
In case you're not familiar with the area, Menchies is located in the Westgate shopping center.
I thought that their products were a cute addition to the place and I liked the idea of their prepacks. I didn't get a chance to buy one so I'm curious to see how it tastes as a prepackaged deal but just the idea itself seemed genius! Who wouldn't want to take froyo home with them!
