Snowberry

I actually thought Snowberry is ok but its CLOSED. It is now some other frozen yogurt place The new place is whatevers. Its self serve and they charge you by the ounce. So every topping you add is weight. I believe its $ 0.30 per ounce (special promotion) and you are gonna spend over $ 3-​$ 4 after your done. The taste is very tart. I dont like it.

another day in ktown. and another typical –berry frozen yogurt place in ktown
they have less topping choices than other places (pinkberry and ce fiore). they didn’t even have white chocolate chips. their fruits didn’t look all that fresh to me.
three flavors are available: plain, green tea, and peach
plain tasted too icy
green tea… i don’t know what green tea tastes like
peach… on the sweeter side (but i liked it the best out of three)
small flavored frozen yogurt with three toppings= $ 5 (ouch)
but the server has a generous heart. he packed the small cup with the frozen yogurt and toppings. more is always good.
btw, the parking at this plaza is horrible. arrrgh…

One word: Yummy.
I think this place is pretty good, the yogurt has the right amount of tartness and sweet, and the boy that fills the yogurt cup always gives me a lot!

I came here to get some dessert after eating at the same plaza.
I ordered a plain with mochi. The small order seemed pretty generous, but the yogurt had a weird aftertaste. It tasted okay at first and then that aftertaste in my mouth just ruined the moment.
With an abundance of froyo joints in the area, I would not come here again.

This place rocks!
They’re open late, and the yogurt here is great!

I did not like the frozen yogurt here at all. But then only reason I gave them 1 star was because they are open till midnight people! Yes me and my friends were on a mission to find an open frozen yogurt place in K-​town and we found Snowberry 10 minutes before closing time. Like I said the topping I never care about but my friends said that it was the worst topping they’ve ever had. And that says a lot since we go to a million different fro-​yo places all the time. I do have to say though that the fro-​yo is on the lighter and icier side, which I love. But it didn’t taste good at all, especially the after taste. It was very blah all and all. My friend kept saying, «Are we eating snow?» because it was the worst we’ve had. Where are the 24hrs fro-​yo places at?! Someone open one up please!

Love the store… It gives a nice winter look and feel! This place is good, clean and the froyo is a little sour comparing with pinkberry :] still good!

At least they got the name right… It really tasted like snow– aka white in color with no taste and it just melts after time. Stale granola topping. This place is by far the worst yogurt ever. I rather stick a stick and freeze the yogurt drinks from the market and eat it as a Popsicle. The fact that this place is a chain and is in SF, LA, NY and Seattle really scares me. And go to the website, whats up with the Bob Ross painting music in the background? That in no way entices me to want your crappy yogurt more.

This place is by far the worst yogurt place I’ve been to. Like many individuals looking for a tasty treat, I was drawn to this place by its adorable logo, an icicle looking thing with a cute smiley face. The glass walls/​door adds to the clean, wintery feel, complimenting its icicle logo. If only looks were everything. But they’re not! And Snowberry is a prime example of this. The yogurt is watery and pretty much flavorless. I came here with my sister and cousin, and we were excited to try this brand of yogurt. Its a good thing we got samples of the yogurt before buying a couple of cups! The yogurt was so bad we wanted to just leave after trying the samples and go across the street to a different one. Should we feel bad for not buying any yogurt after trying all the samples? But they tasted horrible! It’s not our fault we didn’t like it. Well, I did feel bad, so I bought the smallest size of their plain.
flavors:
plain, green tea, peach

Wow! Another frozen yogurt place that has a name that end with a «berry».
Big shock right?
I came to this place on my own first time around when it was a short distance from a KBBQ place where we were going for dinner. I decided to scope this place out first beforehand.
It seemed like every place is going after the same décor and tables/​chair seatings of Pinkberry. To me, it was a bit redundant and too much of a copycat of a well known big dawg.
It also didn’t shocked me when I found out the toppings was pretty much the same. There is however 3 flavors of yogurt instead of two. The original plain and green tea was the same flavor among the two. The only difference was that they have peach flavor yogurt.
Maybe I was a little ticked off when they didn’t do something original and just try to capitalize on someone else’s success. So be it, because I’m not going to worry about it. So far, nobody with 2 or 3 flavors have been able to unseat Pinkberry as my favorite tart frozen yogurt joint.
The first time around before dinner, I tried the peach flavor with the toppings of raspberry and moichi. The texture of the yogurt was actually very smooth and tangy. Less watery than Yogurtland and more smoother than Cefiore. The peach actually worked well with me as I would approved this yogurt with no problem.
Flash ahead two hours as I came back again with my dining companions. One of them took a shot at Green tea, which was fine for him. The other took a disliking to the peach. For a 2^nd time go around, I tackled the plain original flavor.
This was the bummer part for me. It didn’t quite measure up with I liked the first time around with the peach. It was a little bitter with the original flavor. With Pinkberry’s delightful tart in their original, it was hard for any yogurt with plain flavor competing against it. I thought for sure that Snowberry would have a decent shot, but it was just a little sour than I would like.
Bummer.
Four stars for the peach flavor. Two stars for the plain original flavor. Obviously a middle of the road grade for the place. They also do a punch card for a buy 10 and get a prize at the end. The card did not indicate which size of yogurt or what you are going to get for free on your 10^th visit.
After a careful deliberation, I just realized… I’ll never be able to redeem this card because it is unlikely I will come back 8 more times to find out.

Went with 4 others and they all liked Pinkberry better. I actually liked their Peach flavored one. They also have green tea flavored which I didn’t care much for however. Extra star for having mochi which Pinkberry always seem to run out of.
The parking lot here is fairly crowded and the shoppers who park in this area need to relearn how to park correctly. The lot spaces are teeny tiny so there’s a lot of congestion and luckily there is valet parking for $ 1.

4.5 stars…
What’s wrong with it?
I don’t get it. Why so many bad reviews? Who says frozen yogurt has to taste like Pinkberry? If I remember correctly… the OG froyo is Penguins. Did Penguins taste like Pinkberry? Hell no… it didn’t!
I tried all three flavors here… Plain, Peach and Green Tea.
The plain here is creamier and less tart and sweet than most places I’ve tried… but it definitely tastes healthier and it’s only 17 calories per ounce! The peach has a very subtle peach flavor… it’s good but not my top choice here. The green tea on the other hand is hands down the best green tea froyo I’ve had. You can taste the green tea and tart yogurt flavor. It’s awesome.
Come here for the green tea flavor! It’s delish~!!
OH YEAH~!! MOST IMPORTANTLY… NO HOLES IN THE CENTER LIKE PINKBERRY~!!! I HATE THOSE STUPID PINKBERRY HOLES~!!
Edit 11/​16/​07-​The granola topping here is better than other places. It has raisins. The raisins get chewy and cold in the froyo… mmmm…

bleh. me no rikey. this stuff leaves a chalky film in my mouth. and no, thats not what she said.
on top of it tasting gross, this place is even more $$ than pinkberry. no thank you.

Yum!!! I’ve been on a quest to find the best yogurt place and this is definitely one of the good ones! It’s just as tart as Pinkberry, but there’s also a creaminess to it. It’s almost like ice cream, but lighter and more refreshing! Their small size is pretty huge and I only removed 1 star due to their small amount of toppings. There are no lines AND you get frequent buyer card/​coupon — gotta love those! I’m glad this place is doing well, what w/​them having other locations.

Snowberry beats pinkberry red, black, blue and bloody. This whole frozen yogurt craze got to me and I although I dug the pinkberry, I always felt jipped with their small portion size and lack of flavors and toppings. No more!
Snowberry, the creamier, tastier, and cheaper alternative to Pinkberry has captured my heart completely. They put more yogurt in the cup and the texture is much more creamy. The fruit toppings also seem more fresh and the dry toppings are of a larger variety. It also doesn’t hurt that the big shopping center they’re in right in K-​Town has ample parking. You can’t say that about most pinkberry places. Also, they’re doing a frequent buyer card thing right now. Ten punches and the 11^th small, plain is free!
This place is a great alternative to pinkberry fanatics who value, I don’t know, taste and finances more than a sparkly shop with a cult following.

Though I don’t have a sweet tooth, this place is just right. Not too sweet. Not too tart. The green tea yogurt was actually really good. It’ll give the other yogurt places a run for their money.

Decent yogurt, less fresh fruit selection, nothing differentiates them from any of the the other fro-​go joints that abound. BUT this review is dedicated to the nameless parking attendant who runs the valet.
Yeah, that’s right, $ 1 valet parking for frozen yogurt. What the hizzle?!
The strip mall this is located at off Western is a real shit show. Valet parking is required at all times, even for Snowberry.
The Latino guy attending to the cars is a true professional though. He speaks pitch perfect Korean and understands it as well. I’ve been around enough Koreans the past 2 years to know who’s paraphrasing a Berlitz phrasebook and who’s the real deal. Not only is this guy friendly, my car was undamaged. Maybe I’m easily amused, but I would definitely come back to Snowberry just to have this guy try to strike up a conversation with me in Korean in vain.

3.5 stars
Creamier, less tart, bigger portions (medium here = Large at pinkberry) for the medium price of pinkberry.
I had strawberry, pineapple and mochi. strawberry was good, pineapple was a little sour and mochi a bit softer then pinkberry. the mochi was softer but it was sweeter and had a different taste.
The overall taste is kind of close to pinkberry… but it is a little heavier in taste, but not bad. I would come again. My cup was so full they had to put the fruit in another cup. (That would not happen at «air in the middle» Pinkberry’s) Also on friday night they were open til 12am!!! Pinkberry was closed by this time!
The employees english is a bit limited but you’ll get by.
Give em a shot.

Came here twice. Not too bad. Umm… First time wasn’t the best experience. They gave me very little and asked for more. The manager there was telling me it was 8 oz for small size but as the worker was adding the topping on, her hand was shaking. Poor girl! When I left, I was thinking I would never go there again. Decided to give a second chance and their portion got much bigger. I think they even changed their cups too. The taste is much better than Pinkberry. More creamier and fruitier. Try the peach flavor yogurt.
fyi, parking is inconvenient.

Dear Mr. Snowberry,
Thank you for being such a good copy-​cat of Pinkberry. This makes me happy because I can enjoy tart frozen yogurt for cheaper. Please note, however, that you have not yet perfected the formula and you need better seating. Also, your workers aren’t as peppy as the folks at Crackberry.
I still like you, but you can never replace my first love.
XOXO
