Peachwave

Cute place to get some quick yogurt!
I pass Peachwave probably 11 times a week mainly because I go to the LA Fitness right across the street. Finally, I decided to visit because of the location and also because I can’t see myself not liking a frozen yogurt joint. Fortunately, it had been Mother’s Day and all frozen yogurt was either all half off or BOGO (don’t recall but it was a great deal).
Peachwave is a cute, colorful little place. It’s clean, bright and almost reminds me of a candy store. They have the typical frozen yogurt flavors to choose from along with some funky flavors for those who are adventurous. The toppings they offered were plentiful! They had tons of fruit to choose from (my personal favorite to dump on my yogurt) along with fun fudge chunks and even pieces of cheesecake. Though I came in the evening, the fruit still seemed bright and fresh and there were only a couple dishes that needed to be re-​filled.
Overall, this was a nice change from the typical chain frozen yogurt places I’m used to visiting. The yogurt was tasty, there was a topping (or several) for everyone and they even had bright differently colored little spoons to choose from after you pay! It’s the little things guys…
Check this place out!

Love going here. The kids and I enjoy the froyo and all the great toppings as well.

This by far is one of the nicer yogurt places I have been to. Good selection of yogurt and toppings, roomy sitting area, nice staff and moderate prices. I will definitely go back when I am in the area.

I like this place lots of options. Also there’s a pizza and comic book place near by.

4 STARS for the cleanliness of the place and friendly staff. The place smelled a bit like a public shower (all the bleach, I guess). Oh, and the calories on display for each flavor was nice.
2 STARS for the toppings, ½ of what major competition has.
–1 STARS for the ‘yogurt’…every single flavor tasted artificial! It was nasty.
Bottom line: Myself and others had to stop by Menchie’s which is the polar opposite of Peachwave just get that artificial favor out of our mouths. Yuk!

Very nice concept. I can see this place having potential to be awesome once you come here a few times and master the right «combination». Came here last night after leaving Jaxx right next door. We’re new to the area so we decided to try both for the first time.
Off top, the staff in here is pretty nice. We told the girl it was our first time so she have us a bunch of mini cups to try the different frozen yogurt flavors. The quality of their frozen yogurt is excellent. Very smooth and rich. Tastes better than some of the «premium» ice creams I’ve tried in other places.
So i made my cup. I mixed salted caramel & expresso and added a few condiments. It was pretty good. The frozen yogurt was excellent but the mix itself wasn’t as phenomenal as I expected and I think it was because I didn’t add the right condiments. I can see myself returning potentially and maybe next time I’ll get it right.

I needed to make an emergency pit stop on a cranky, sweaty drive with my tired kids today. This place was a saving grace. I’m not sure if Peachwave has changed since I last visited, or if I misjudged it the first time around, but I was very impressed on my visit today. It’s actually one of the nicest frozen yogurt places I’ve been to.
Exceptionally clean, tons of seating (inside and outside), a clean and well-​stocked bathroom, tasty flavors, and a variety of fresh fruit toppings (I have a fruit toppings only policy when it comes to frozen yogurt).

Tried Peachwave for the first and I must say I’m not impressed. This froyo places stinks. Their flavors are way too sugary and sweet. Wish their flavors had more of a natural balance. I’ve been to many froyo places and hate to say this is one that just didn’t hit the spot for me. Also, they did not have a variety of nut toppings to choose from or other heathy toppings, other than fresh fruits.

I prefer peachwave’s froyo to any of the major franchises. So yummy! I love their flavors and wide selection of toppings. There’s some sit down space inside and outside the place which is cute and convenient.
Only thing I wish is that I didn’t lose my loyalty cards as often as I do.

Love this place! Many yogurt flavors and a large topping selection. The people are super friendly and the best part of them is their punch card and Facebook offers.

I may have been here more times than I care to admit… I love their rotating flavors (so far cupcake is my favorite). They have 25 or so toppings, everything from fresh cut fruit to crushed butterfingers. I usually end up loading up more than I plan for but never regret it! I cant wait to come back.
Protip: they have a loyalty punch card and free sample cups

Froyo! I must confess that I actually love ice cream more than I love froyo. So if you gave me the option to go to Dairy Queen vs froyo, 9 times out of 10 I would pick DQ. But this froyo is top-​notch. Froyo has a lot of perks too. Like you can get as much or as little as you like, you can mix flavors and my favorite perk – you can load up on the toppings. The toppings is probably the number one reason why I like froyo. Where else can you have cookie dough and boba on your frozen yogurt?!
The prices are good and this place is very clean!

The place is similar to a Menchies or a Red Mango — you have several self-​serve soft-​serve frozen yogurts, your toppings, and then you weigh how heavy your concoction is, and pay. Kind of humbling to know your ice cream weighs 30lbs — 30lbs of awesomeness that is.
I liked the flavors they had here, and I extremely liked that they had a placard displaying the nutritional value of each flavor and a cardboard divider you can insert into your cup if you don’t want one flavor of frozen yogurt touching another flavor.
I ended up getting three flavors — pineapple, vanilla, and blueberry. From reading other Unilocalers, people like the pineapple, but for me, it was rather too tart. I really liked the vanilla and blueberry. The topping offered here was good — they had mango pieces, cookie dough, sprinkles, etc and they had the fudge, strawberry, and caramel toppings.
I will be going back here if I ever get another sweet tooth — I’m a health freak and like frozen yogurt due to the nutritional content (I don’t care too much about calories, but do care about macros).
BATHROOM REVIEW — Located in the back, down a somewhat winding hallway (not really) the bathrooms are super clean and spacious. It was really well kept and the fixtures were in good working order. Sit or squat? Sit!

I am 90 percent certain this place contributed significantly to what I’m euphemistically referring to as my «divorce weight.» Froyo makes me happy, so whatever.
This is my favorite place to get a fix because the list of offerings is extensive, as are the toppings. I’ve enjoyed salted caramel, coconut cream, fudge brownie, pineapple whip and strawberry cheesecake froyo here. Nice little seating area and competitive prices, too.
Tips: Follow them on Facebook for coupons, and sign up for their punch card!

This is a pretty yummy Fro Yo spot. I love that they have lots of flavors to choose from. I found the décor refreshing inside and quite clean, but the bathroom could have used a good scrubbing… :(
I tried the nutella and coconut frozen yogurt. The nutella was on the so-​so side but the coconut one was quite delicious. It had a nice fresh and clean taste. Got some coupons in the mail so it’s a great excuse to be go back! (Not that I need one: p)

Holy Nutella softserve, Batman!
Yep, you heard me right: NUT-​freaking-​TELLA!
I came down with a pretty severe sweet tooth and asked my +1 if we could head out for some dessert. My Unilocal buddy, Janni, had recently reviewed Peachwave and it sounded like the perfect sweet treat!
I was ready to just dive in, but my +1 was thinking rationally and found some sample cups to use to try out the yogurt. They’re by the cash register and you really have to ask for them, so it is a bit out of the way. (Still, I can see the madness that might ensue if they’re just out in the open by the goods.)
My +1 wasn’t impressed by the flavors and passed, so I got myself a cup and got a bit of both chocolate and the Nutella. Sooooo goooood! I’m a pretty simple kind of girl, so the froyo is all I wanted — no toppings for me! I filled up the smaller of the two containers about ¹⁄₃ of the way and my total was less than $ 3.
It absolutely satisfied my sweet tooth. YAY for local froyo!

Be careful what you wish for because it might come true.
For years I lamented about the lack of Self-​Serve Frozen Yogurt places in the Chicago area; namely Yogurtland. But it looks like the Chicago Burbs have turned a corner full steam ahead because now there is a plethora of frozen yogurt options to choose from.
I’ve never heard of Peachwave but I wanted to check them out. It’s an a strip mall on Army Trail; thankfully with a traffic light so you don’t have to worry about turning left on that sometimes-​crazy road.
There are about 12 different flavors to choose from and the flavors do rotate. I’ve been happy with what I’ve chosen flavor-​wise. If I had to be picky about something it would be that sometimes the frozen yogurt is too soft and bits of it is even watery when you are filling up your cup. But otherwise, I’m a fan!
You have to ask the nice folks behind the counter for tasting cups, but other than that, it’s self-​serve all the way. My favorite so far has been the Tart and Birthday Cake and Cheesecake flavors. Their toppings bar is kept pretty tidy. They have the usual suspects: fruit, mochi, popping boba pearls, candy and cheesecake bites and cookies. There is also syrups toppings and whipped cream by the scale. Most of their fruit looks ok, but I think some of them are frozen – like the strawberries were syrupy, def the frozen and thawed variety. But it was still good quality and not at all gone bad.
Cute place, sunny and bright. Nice stop in GHeights!

I am so glad this opened up so close to my home so I don’t have to tolerate Yumz anymore. This is a froyo place where the flavors actually taste like something other than artificial, chemical flavoring. In fact, the flavors pretty much taste exactly as their handy pictures and descriptions tell you. That’s how it should be, right?
Their Original Tart is pretty solid but I really like their fruity flavors. I’ve tried Lemon, Orange, Raspberry, Strawberry and Boysenberry (a flavor I have yet to find elsewhere). I’ve liked all of them so far. I’ve also gone for the more savory of the sweet flavors: Peanut Butter, Nutella and Pumpkin Pie. Pumpkin Pie is especially great during this time of year. It’s somewhat light, so it feels like you’re being healthy.
The fruit bar is great. They have plenty of options and the fruit has always been fresh. Their candy selection is a bit larger but I find some of the things offered aren’t that great. The Cookie Dough bites don’t taste like much, neither do the Cheesecake bites, and the Chocolate Covered Pretzels excited me until I actually tasted them. Better to skip those things and go straight for the M&Ms or Reese’s Pieces. Their Chocolate and Caramel toppings are good, though.
Everyone who works there has been very friendly and remembers to ask if we have a punch card. We’re racking up the points, so we hope to get some sweet, free frozen yogurt soon.

This is my new spot for a cold treat. It is located in a strip mall right across from McDonalds. Across the street from Buona Beef and Steak and Shake.
There are at least 10 yogurt options to choose from and tons of toppings, including fresh fruit, candy and nuts.
I went to this place for the first time with my nephew. He wanted ice cream and I figured we should have yogurt with a ton of options instead. Given the self serve set up, we scoped out the toppings and flavors before getting started. He grabbed the larger cup which suggested he would weigh in at $ 10. This only meant I would feed him oatmeal for dinner. (Just kidding). He layered his yogurt and toppings which was actually a pretty good idea. But given the size of his cup, he needed to layer.
I decided to layer too in lieu of spending time mixing everything. I tried the vanilla yogurt with strawberries, sliced almonds and a couple snicker bites. I also had a small amount of whipped cream.
The service was great. We warmly greeted when we entered and thanked upon leaving. But, I guess so. My nephew ate for a family of four. I really think the big cup is intended for sharing.
I am excited about the punch card, late hours (10:30pm on weekdays) and convenient location. I will definitely be back real soon.

This place is excellent and hope that it stays that way. The yogurts are much better than Yumz with the same toppings. Prices seemed roughly the same as well. It’s not as good as Yogli Mogli but I also don’t have to drive 30 minutes to get there.
Definite must do.
