TCBY

The ice cream is delicious. The flavors are simple. But it’s the toppings you can add that really make the dish. But the toppings add up in price fast. It’s all by the pound. My wife adds a bit of ice cream and then scoops tons of things on top.
Not a good value if you go for mostly ice cream and little toppings.
Pricey is why I listed 4 out of 5.

Pretty typical for a frozen yogurt place. They were running a special where you can fill your bowl up as much as you want for $ 4 or something close to that. Variety of flavors and toppings but I thought the sitting area could be a little cleaner.

Prices are crazy expensive and just keep getting higher at .59 an ounce. Your best bet is to go and get just the yogurt, the add on bar is a joke. Many of the toppings are stale, fruit was frozen and the Reese’s cups aren’t Reese’s, in fact all the candy is the generic imposter. You can taste how cheap they are! If you are going to charge .59 an ounce, the could at least put high quality ingredients on there! The thing that turned me off was how the pricing is designed to keep people in the dark about what they are spending until they put the dish on the scale. The scale is probably fixed too, how would anyone know? This place stays in business because people go in there and end up spending twice what they planned. Don’t appreciate that business tactic!

TCBY is expensive, but I really like it since they have dairy free soft serve– a vanilla coconut «ice cream» and a chocolate almond one, which can also be swirled together. The cups are giant, and desserts are priced by weight, so I’d just say to be careful since it’s easy to have a very pricey treat from there.
Also, sometimes on Thursdays they sometimes have balloons for kids, which is nice.

We used to go to TCBY back in the day when they were set up like any other ice cream joint. These days, or at least this store, is set up like a buffet. The positive is that your cup of yogurt with extras is exactly as you want it, the downer is the pricetag. At 54 cents/​ounce you can go to Walmart and get a couple gallons of ice cream for less. I enjoyed the concoction that I built (cheesecake flavored yogurt with cookie dough, Butterfinger’s and graham crackers)… but it sure wasn’t worth $ 12+.

TCBY is our favorite place for frozen yogurt. It’s was the only yogurt shop in Orland and a it took a decent bike ride to get there. Now there are 4 yes, 4 yogurt shops all on LaGrange Road within a mile of each other and we will still prefer TCBY.

Best froyo place in town. Friendly staff. Clean place. Great toppings. Really cool looking store. And you gotta try the smoothie things where they make your froyo and toppings choice into a McFlurry-​type thing.

Great yogurt. I like that TCBY has normal flavors and they switch them frequently. Better than Cherry Berry and Red Mango. I feel excited every time i go. However, I have been here many times, and every time I see the workers doing something dirty. They stick their fingers in the toppings. They eat behind the counter. They often have jackets on. I found hair in their toppings twice. I just completely avoid the topping bar here.

I think this is the most expensive of froyo places but it’s also my favorite. You can’t taste the tart yogurt flavor in theirs like you can at places like Red Mango (or other places in Kankakeeland that no one reading this would recognize).
The Italian tart, grapefruit sorbet, pistachio, white chocolate, cheesecake, and pumpkin are all recent favorites. They also have Chocolate Almond dairy-​free froyo made with Silk brand milk which is awesome! If you have a lactose allergy, this is the place for you. They always have at least 2 dairy-​free options available.
They always have plenty of mochi too. This is awesome because I must have a 2:1 ice cream-​mochi ratio. I must I must!

Like this place now that it moved from its old location by the Best Buy on LaGrange Road and 159^th Street. The new store is stylish, and they have converted the service for their soft-​serve into self-​serve. The dispensing machines in the back of the storefront are generally working but a bit slow. I like that you can put on a lot or a little of any topping you like.
I think they solved some of the new-​opening jitters and have their staffing worked out. There always seem to be enough employees around to run the place and keep the self-​serve topping section very clean. It is a nice touch that one of them always says HI when you hit the door.
Prices are pretty standard (I think it is 49 cents an ounce) — you can load up your cup and pay almost $ 10 for a single huge serving or just take a bit of this and that and get by way cheaper. The three of us are usually less than $ 10 for the group — the young one of us getting toppings that would wreck my cholesterol test. We’ll be back.

Went there tonight with a Groupon. Loveddddd the tart with coconut, cherries, graham crackers and sprinkles. My friends loved it too. I’m chomping at the bit to go back.

Me and my boyfriend always hit up TCBY their frozen yogurt tastes like ice cream and it’s just delicious. This location offers peanut butter sauce and Reeses cups which sadly a lot of froyo places in the city don’t so TCBY hits the spot for us! I have noticed recently though that the White Chocolate Mousse flavor hasn’t been there which was a favorite of mine so please bring it back! Definitely a fun place to create your own frozen treat and hangout in the modern lounge area.

I had a yearning for some yogurt because my daughter had been here earlier in the day and she agreed to go for a second time. I was pretty darn excited until we entered behind one of the clerks bringing two very full garbage bags into the store. Garbage into the store??? What seemed odd turned to yuck when the bags leaked all across the floor. Garbage leakage is just not that appealing to me and plus it seemed like wiping it with a damp mop five minutes later just wasn’t the fix I was looking for, it pretty much just spread the leakage around so it would dry more quickly.
Sigh.
We then tried to get yogurt but with all the blinking lights, there were very few options. We decided to wait for Greek Honey yogurt as we were informed that it would take five minutes. Big mistake as I was able to observe what was going on here. There was one overwhelmed clerk behind the counter. There were people just swarming in here and so the self serve option became a horror in my opinion. I observed:
–Children putting their hands all over the toppings.
–People of all ages coughing into the toppings and the sneeze guard is situated so it stops nothing.
–Multiple children handling where the yogurt comes out and people of all ages trying sample after sample, squeezing it out into their mouths and going for a new sample, placing the nozzle right into their chewed up little cup.
–People holding onto various sized cups, touching and dropping them and then putting them back on the stack.
Double sigh
As the five minutes stretched into fifteen, I found I had no appetite for yogurt. One person cannot handle the crowds and garbage leakage gal disappeared into the back room the entire time we were waiting.
I may try their yogurt if I can come early, way early in the day before the place has been germed up by the customers. But nooooooooooo way am I risking it on a night like last night around 8:00 pm. Management needs a minimum of three people working here and one full time cleaning person.
The c in tcby was «creeped» out by the clientel for me.

Freaking EXPENSIVE! Me and three 6-​year olds, $ 14 and some change. I’d rather go to Baskin Robins

Have you ever shopped at Justice or Limited Too? I think they shared their interior designer with TCBY. As you enter you are hit with bright lights, dance music, neon colors and strobe lights. I loved it! It is a fun fro yo dance party complete with happy customers and happy workers.
We went on Saturday and were very pleased. It was super crowded, but the staff had everything under control. I really appreciated that they monitored the sample cups so they could thwart any cheapos wanting to come in and graze for samples.
I tried the pink grapefruit sorbet, frozen Greek yogurt with honey and the chocolate fro yo. They were all winners. Although the sorbet was delicious and just like biting into a fresh grapefruit, I settled on the vanilla Greek honey and chocolate. I then topped the vanilla with strawberry and mango boba and mochi and the chocolate with oreos. It made for terrific combinations!
As we pulled in to the store, my husband was convinced he wasn’t going to get anything. I think he was afraid I was taking him somewhere healthy. As it turned out he loved it and is continuously suggesting that we go back. Pretty sure we will find ample time in our schedule to return!

Great frozen yogurt and a really good selection of toppings but HOLY COW is it expensive!!! $ 9.00 for a single serving. Yikes!
There doesn’t seem to be a menu or prices listed anywhere in the store so the cost comes as quite a shock when you get to the register.

I’ve always heard good things about Tcby, and this one just opened not too far from my house so I figured I would give it a try. As far as frozen yogurt goes, this ranks pretty high up there. I’ve tried Red Mango also, and didn’t care for their yogurt, it had a tangy taste to it, which is not really what your looking for in a frozen dessert. But, no worries, no tangy-​ness at tcby. I do have to warn you though, you will probably have to open a 2^nd mortgage on your home to frequently visit tcby. You pay for your yogurt by weight, and if your not careful the ounces start adding up. By the time all was said and done, my cup of frozen yogurt turned into a $ 9 holy sh*t moment.

The last bite of my white chocolate mousse froyo just left my lips. I wanted to write this before I could forget how ridiculously scrumptious it was. I frequented TCBY when I was just a little girl and I have very fond memories. I was glad to see that they are still around and re-​inventing their image. my last review of a frozen yogurt place was red mango. now having tried TCBY, i can see the pros and cons of both. i was driving past TCBY and saw it and had to stop. having spent the day shopping and not eaten anything, i figured i’d skip lunch and opt for dessert. so glad i did! it was amazing. it also happened to be their grand opening, so it was packed.
i loved the fact that you got to pick your own ingredients, sort of a buffet of ingredients. i added the strawberry juice balls, some strawberry fizzy/​yogurt candy and granola. oh my my my. if there’s a heaven, i bet this will be served at the gates.
now here comes the con, i put my little creation on the scale and it comes up $ 7.75. are. you. flipping. kidding. me. i put a good amount of each ingredient but not THAT much. the kids around me were dumping strawberries on their creations – an ingredient *MUCH* heavier than what i added. i half wanted to start scraping ingredients off one by one until i could get it down to the $ 5 range. (side note: my mom is the cheapest woman alive – if she finds out that i spent that much for one serving of frozen yogurt, she would disown me.) while i’m having a mini-​conniption fit, the cashier gave me a discount since it was the grand opening and i breathed a sigh of relief. it was only $ 5.50.
after visiting here, i would probably visit red mango next time since they have a set price and i’m pretty cheap.
