Menchie’s Frozen Yogurt

This place was disgusting. I was in and out within three minutes. The tart fro-​yo came out green and it was so icey and crystallized. They definitely aren’t cleaning their machines or producing quality fro-​yo. Another young lady was in the store and we saw her leave as well empty handed of course. We ended up seeing her at yogurt land and she reported Menchie’s to the health department. Plus, I didn’t mention that more than half of their machines were out of service, so they probably had a total of five flavors available. Go to yogurt land instead. It’s just right down the street.

In efforts to kick a sweet tooth, I visited this Menchie’s location as it was on my way home. I was very disappointed as the number of flavors were limited to the basics and most of the machines were out of the special flavors which I have experienced at other locations. I ended up going to the Yogurtland not too far away to find a much better flavor choice experience.

Menchie’s is one of my favorite fro-​yo places because I like the self-​serve style, the fro-​yo just tastes better to me, and they have the best toppings.
I like the way this particular Menchie’s is set up (basically in a line fashion). Some of the Menchies have the checkout and/​or the topping station in the middle of the place which for some reason stresses me out a little.
About a year ago, I found out I was pregnant and COULD NOT stop craving fro-​yo so hubs and I visited this place like once a week. They had so many great flavors which they changed out often. The staff was always friendly and helpful. However, we’ve been about three times this year and each time, about 50% of the dispensers were out of order. The fro-​yo from the dispensers that were working tasted funny too. Even though this used to be one of my spots, I don’t think I will be back anytime soon. I hope they figure out the problem (s) with the dispensers!

The change out their yogurts pretty frequently and are laid back by you sampling /​trying items. They list right on the yogurt if it’s low fat, sugar free, gluten free … Etc.
Even with all the fancy flavors (cinnamon bun, peanut butter cup, oreoish things) I always go for my classic cake batter with brownie and rainbow sprinkles.
I think the toppings is what really sets this place apart … They have EVERYTHING. Nutter Butters, different cereals, brownies, cheesecake bites, every chocolate candy you could want and a nice array of chopped up fruits. They keep the topping bar very cleaned and organized.
I wish they had the space to add more benches or small outdoor tables.

Even though the yogurt was the service just flat out ruined my appetite. It was my 1^st time visit so I had no idea what I was getting into.
Me and my daughter walk in to no one in sight, we kind of got the idea of what to do after reading stuff on the wall. 3 minutes pass and still no employees. Finally she walks out, doesn’t say hi, she just stands there. I asked questions but had very little response, so when it was time to pay she looked at me crazy and said are you going to weigh it or not? Weigh my yogurt? Ok, this is new to me, so why am I getting this incredibly rude feedback.
I paid $ 14.55 for 2 yogurts and was to pist to eat mine. I understand people have bad days but come on, it wasn’t me who made your day bad. I work in the service industry and have to change my attitude quick or I’ll lose my job and possibly ruin someone else’s day along with mine.
I’ll pray for the employee and my attitude to change because this really did leave a sour taste in my mouth.
Never will I come back to the River Oaks location but will give the chain another try

Yummy! Their cake batter froyo is delicious!

Some of the flavors taste quite synthetic but there are a few really nice ones too! Came on a Monday for the 5 $ swirl-​your-​own deal which can be an excellent value if you know how to swirl the fro-​yo really high. Would gladly come back for more

Came for the $ 5 Monday happy hour (7−9pm), where you can fill up a small cup as high as you’d like. If you know how to stack your cup, this can be a great deal! Some flavors taste chemical, but marshmallow, chocolate cherry, and cinnamon cookie were good. A wide array of toppings to select from!

So many flavors & so little time. This is hands down my favorite froyo place in town! Staff if always super friendly :) sign up for the menchies club. For every 50 $ you get 5 $ toward purchase.

The frozen yogurt selection was good and the selection of toppings was vast. They’re open ’till 11 pm on a Friday’s. Always a great experience.

Love Menchies! The yogurt is creamy and full of flavor! My favorite thing about Menchies is all the topping selections you can choose from! I also enjoyed that they had a trader joes cookie butter flavor! Amazing! Also Menchies offers low fat and no sugar added options which taste just as grest as the other favors. I definitely recommend this place if you have a sweet craving!

Usually come here after dinner. Have had quick yummy experiences! Will continue to come here all the time!

My bf and I come to this Menchie’s at least once a week, usually on Mondays for happy hour ($ 5 regardless of weight). The staff here are excellent. They’re very friendly and when my cup looks light on Mondays, they always weigh it to make sure they’re not overcharging. They change their flavors frequently, but my favorite (cake batter) is a staple and has always been there when I’ve gone. Things are neat, clean, and functioning well here, which is more that I can say for the one time we made the mistake of trying out Tutti Fruitti.

Always good! I like that they always have new flavors to try as well as keeping the classics

Oh Menchie’s…why are you so close to Romano’s Pizza? I can’t resist getting a cup everytime I visit W. Gray. Or the Heights. or anytime I see a Menchie’s…
Menchie’s is a self-​serve frozen yogurt establishment where you get your cup, fill it with the frozen yogurt flavors of your choice (they seem to change frequently), add your toppings, and it’s weighed at the counter where you pay. Several flavors and toppings to choose from. Clean place, fast service, plenty of seating indoor and out with shopping center parking lot next to Kroger.

I’m a froyo fanatic and this place is super delish! I’ve had almost every flavor and I’ve never been disappointed. My favorite will always be the cake batter though. The facility is well kept and the staff is always so friendly and helpful :)
Definitely a great after dinner snack option!

The froyo here is comparable to the quality of Yogurtland, my favorite froyo place. Plus, there’s a lotttt of topping options. Plus they have sample cups: D
I came here for free froyo day and, if this place was closer, could definitely see myself being a regular!

Don’t even know why but I started eating frozen yogurt a few months back. Fat boy time I guess. This place seems to be OK. About the only other place I have to compare to is Yogurtland.
The one thing I did notice was that the yogurt doesn’t seem to be as «frozen» as Yogurtland. Here it tends to melt faster, but it is definitely more sweet. They seem to rotate four or so flavors and the staff is always friendly. Anytime I’ve gone its never been packed so getting in and out is quick and easy. The toppings seem about the same as other yogurt places, but I did notice they always have one topping that goes with one of their monthly flavors, like icing with Cinnamon bun or cream cheese with Red Velvet.
If you have a craving frozen yogurt this would definitely take care of it but I wouldn’t call it the «best» option.

This is the best Menchie’s around, methinks. The one out by the Galleria is horrendous, in every way, and soured my perception of all of their locations for a while. Luckily, I gave this one a shot the other night when my sweet tooth acted up after eating next door at Café Ginger.
I rolled in with my wife, kids, and sister and everyone ran straight for the sample cups. The attendants were all very friendly, started handing out stickers to the kids, and let us get as many samples as we liked. After loading up a few cups with a bunch of different frozen yogurt flavors, and piling on all kinds of toppings, we paid and started our feast.
The big difference for me with this location and the last one I visited had to do with cleanliness and freshness. We visited the other location at about the same time of day that we came here… around 7pm. At the Galleria location, all the toppings were gross and nasty, they looked like they were out all day long and never once serviced. Even worse, there was garbage and spilled yogurt everywhere.
The location on W. Gray didn’t have any of these problems. Even though we visited late in the day, the toppings were all fresh and situated in spotless containers. You could tell that the staff works hard to keep the shop looking nice all day long… no garbage, sticky tables, or other problems.
BOTTOM LINE: A solid place for good service, a clean shop, and deliciously fresh yogurt and toppings.

Oh my GOSH this place is amazing! You MUST try the cinnamon roll flavor if they still have it. When I went, they were doing Girl Scout cookie flavors. And YES THEY HAD SAMOA FLAVORED YOGURT (or whatever it’s called now).
For a while there, they were doing free yogurt if the Rockets won. I just got depressed but… well…yogurt! Maybe now that the Rockets are out, they’ll release a Tears of Houston flavor. Sigh.
The workers are also very friendly and nice, and the toppings selection is fantastic.
