Sparky’s Frozen Yogurt Shop

Sparky! Thank you for everything! Loved your yogurt. Wish you a great retirement. You so deserve it. Will miss you and your smoothies. Lots of love

Going to miss you Tommy. We’ve been going there for over twenty years. He watched my kids 19 and 14 grow up. Happy for his retirement.

I walked by Sparky’s tonight (March 28) and there was a small sign posted on the window.
Sadly, I must report that he will no longer be open.
After many, many years of serving the neighborhood delicious treats, he is moving on to the next stage of his life. A very sad day to lose such an OG Venice legend.
Good luck my friend, Tomasito!

Delicious and well priced.
Sparky has been a fixture of the neighborhood for years.
Sparky is awesome, always in a good mood and is excited each and every time he serves his delicious FroYo

The guy working this place is awesome, kind, grateful, and genuine. Protein smoothie for 5 or 6 bucks and it was super tasty! Good stuff, great value.

The frozen yogurt is delicious and toppings are always fresh. The best part of the experience is the gentleman who is always there working, I assume he owns it. He is always super nice and very helpful. A + from me

I had a WONDERFUL Acai bowl this morning from Sparkys! I just stumbled upon it after s hike, and am so happy I did.
The Acai bowl had Bananas, Strawberries, Raspberries, blackberries AND blueberries and granola for only $ 6.75. I’d say the best deal in town!
Will definitely be back for more. Thank you Sparky!

Sparky’s is the best Froyo place around. Selection is good, especially Coconut Carbolite is super! Good, fresh toppings, Sparky is the sweetest man and truly remembers his customers. Venice favourite and Main Street’s only Froyo place. My son also loves this place and must visit Sparky’s once a week.

Very good yogurt & the owner is very nice to everyone :)

Sparky is awesome! Came here today and he let us try all the froyo flavored we wanted. Ended up getting an acai bowl which was loaded with lots of fresh fruit and yummy coconut granola. I’ll definitely be back :)

Love this place! Always get the acai bowl here. Sparky is the friendliest, cutest man and is always happy to see his customers. The acai bowl is amazing, sorbet style, and it’s filled with so many fresh fruits.

yes, what an ice cream/​frozen yogurt shop should be. friendly, fun and a little edgy, not some sterile Pinkberry or overpriced Gelato shop.
a throwback to simpler times.. and the prices are hard to beat.

Sweetest man ever! Froyo is delicious & sooo creamy. Tart is out of control. Massive chunks of perfectly ripe fruit to put on top, which is my fave.

Darling man. Delicious yogurt. Fresh toppings. There were even good low calorie options. Yummmmmy! I want to go back every day

Sparky is the most friendly person ever. Just as you walk in, you can’t help but notice all the decorations… there was definitely a cat-​theme going on in this little shop. He saw us looking around at all the cat decorations and said he really likes cats, better than dogs. He was all smiles and happily gave us free sample of the flavors we wanted to try. The flavors were good and portions were generous. An extra star just for the cat-​loving yogurt guy!

Sparky’s has great frozen yogurt & the acai bowl is an awesome post workout treat!
The dude that works here or is the sweetest guy ever!
I love this spot… Highly recommend!!!

The owner is the most stoked guy on the planet!
He’ll talk to you to make sure you get what you want if you’re not sure…
For me, it’s always, and will always be the Acai bowls … They are LOADED. Best in LA

The frozen yogurt here is good, really good. The toppings are the standard variety that you’d expect at a yogurt shop.
The real story is the man behind the counter. What a character that guy is. Maybe living in Los Angeles has jaded me but the proprietor was so incredibly nice and humorous that it was borderline creepy. I’m not used to someone being so kind and funny and helpful to strangers. Granted, he wants our business, but I get the sense that the personality is not an act. He’s just the nice uncle that likes to spoil his customers.

Bottom line at the top: Sparky is the man. Seriously, I’ve never met a nicer guy. I kind of want to be his best friend. He’s just awesome. If every man in the world was like Sparky, the world would be a perfect Utopian paradise with no war and no hunger, because everyone would be warm and kind and feeding each other delicious yogurt. But now I’m rambling. God bless you, Sparky.
The yogurt here is great, and despite being tucked away in a little shopping center on Main, it’s easy to get to — there’s a loading zone out front if you’re on the go. I got some tart fro-​yo with mangoes and strawberries and thoroughly enjoyed it. I haven’t been getting yogurt much lately (trying to cut the sweets) but I love Sparky’s! If you like frozen yogurt (and who doesn’t?) go here. It’s the best.

I was wandering down Main Street one day wondering why we didn’t have a frozen yogurt place around here — no Pinkberry, Yogurtland, or some other boutique tart yogurt place for miles. Then I realized Sparky’s was under my nose the whole time and my yuppie ass neglected to remember it simply because it doesn’t have eye catching modern white furniture, gluten free toppings, or some other gimmick. I rushed into Sparky’s to make up for my lapse in memory and was greeted by THE nicest yogurt server on earth. Seriously, this guy melted my heart faster than my froyo on a hot LA day. He let have try samples and gave me a very healthy dose of oreo topping. He even gladly accepted a credit card for my small purchase.
Note that this is the old school froyo we used to have before it became a big fad. So you might notice that it’s a little creamier and sweeter than the trendy ones now. But it definitely took me back and was a perfect little sweet treat. I’ll definitely remember Sparky’s now that I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing their wonderful customer service and tasty products.
