Bamboo Spoon Frozen Yogurt Cafe

Sufficient indoor and outdoor seating. Excellent tasting flavors and now they also offer shakes. Quality toppings and a variety of flavors.

Best yogurt place I have been to. Also, they have the best flavors and the price is cheap as well.

4.5 stars. Awesome froyo place. They have a loyalty card. What makes this place stand out to me is that they change their flavors every month. I believe they even had special flavors when the Blackhawks were in the playoffs.
The shop is clean, there is outdoor seating, and the owner/​manager, she is an angel.
They have a great mix of froyo choices as well as toppings. Perfect for a summer night. My dog also loves it just as much as I do.

Always a good treat. Bamboo spoon never never fails my taste buds. Come here all the time!

The flavors are always so exciting and super tasty! I love their rotation of options, and the location is wonderful near all of the other shops and restaurants. Would definitely recommend!

This is the best frozen yogurt joint I have found to date. They are always changing their flavor varieties to match the season. Their topping choices are out of this world! They have so many choices you are bound to find something you enjoy. It is the largest selection I have seen from any store. Best part, it is locally owned!

So good and so clean! Good fresh varieties of toppings, bamboo spoon was the first time I ever had frozen yogurt and I loved it!

This places gets 5 stars for the sheer cleanliness. No joke, I couldn’t believe how clean it was for a 830 on a Tuesday night. Usually at these types of places there’s a strawberry in the pineapple bin, or Oreos in the strawberry bin. None of that hanky panky here folks!
I choose three flavors, because, yolo! I went for the Tahitian vanilla (oh how I miss Tahiti…) raspberry chocolate, and key lime. I went for minimal toppings, strawberries and those jelly things that burst in your mouth and I was good to go. My total, 3.47. Nice!
We sat outside and enjoyed the yogurt. It was very delicious and I will be glad to go back.
Plus, I really like their spoons. Is that weird?

Not your typical dispense-​your-​own fro-​yo café. The flavors are unique, the consistency of the yogurt is on point (I’m sure we’ve all had an unfortunate experience when our yogurt dispensed out as a slush or milk!), and the toppings are plentiful and fresh. I tried a few flavors and triple chocolate and salted caramel were the winners. Will definitely stop by here again on a summer night if I’m in the area! I’m glad they were open late even on a Sunday night.

Yogurts tasted very artificial and powdery. The lady working in there is the only reason i gave 4 stars she is super friendly and you can tell she genuinely appreciates your business. I did like the fact they offered carob chips as a topping!

Love love this place! My all time favorite froyo joint! Not only does it taste delicious but they carry a variety of flavors that everyone is sure to like. My personal favorite is pistachio!

Since my first visit I have had this soft serve goodness at least every other day, without experiencing any digestive issue being lactose intolerance, yippee!!!

Visited Bamboo Spoon for the first time today. The atmosphere is welcoming and fresh and the selection of flavors overwhelming! Luckily the cup comes with an insert that lets you have four flavors without mixing them! I had pistachio (awesome and my favorite!), Tahitian Vanilla (good) with fresh blackberries, Pecan Pie (Yummy!) with chopped pecans and Triple Chocolate (excellent!) with salted caramel chocolate bits. I did not feel guilty because the products are fresh and wholesome. If the owners ever decide to franchise — I’m in!

Right in the Aboretum next to the Xsport, is this little Yogurt Place. Walking into the place is pretty nice and clean. The toppings looked fresh and had vibrant colors. In the back there is a good variety of yogurt selections and they offered samples cups so you taste it.
I had the Very Berry Twist and added some Blackberries, Raspberries, Strawberries and had it blended up in a smoothie. I been to a few yogurt places like Red Mango and Yogen Fruz and I would have to say that the yogurt tastes better here. Definitely coming back here again to try some additional flavors!

Very cute place… its like a frozen yogurt version of Starbucks! I was craving a little something sweet, so the hubby and I stopped here for some frozen yogurt. Just grab your bowl and serve yourself! They have many different flavors… I tried the angel food cake… interesting, but good. After you fill up your bowl, help yourself to the wide variety of toppings from crushed candy to sour worms to fruit! Great seleciton on toppings!
I had about ¾ a cup of frozen yogurt with some toppings on there… almost $ 4…yowza…they are a bit pricey, but its something different and its very tastey!
The staff is very friendly, and you can even get a punchcard there woohoo!

Did I really just spend $ 15 for 2 cups of froyo? $!#!$!#!$! I really need to tell the kiddies to go easy on the toppings.
I love the variety of flavors, toppings, and close proximity to the house – but the price kills it for me to go that often. Since it is so close to home, my kids love to go there. Although it is pricier than other froyos in the area, I think of the time and gas I have to spend going to other locations and justify with my tummy that it is perfectly fine to go here.
I do love that is is self serve, so you can have as little or as much of anything as you want. They also do have little sample cups to try the different flavors if you have commitment issues.
Be sure to get a frequent froyo addict card (also known as their punch card) — so at least each purchase that you do make counts for something.
Depending on the time of day you go, parking can be a little tricky as you roll in to stuff your face and all the gym junkies flock to the fitness center next door. Other than that froyo rocks!

Keep this in mind as I write this – I have never been to a froyo place in my life. I am a newbie, but I LOVED this!
Our daughter had a gymnastics place right down the block, so we decided to bring our son in for a little treat! From the second we walked in here, we were overwhelmed in a good way!
You need to walk past all of the goodies before getting to the soft serve part (see pictures) and the VERY sweet girl at the front gave us little sampling cups so we could try what we wanted before we commit to a flavor (FYI, my personal thought is that the chocolate macadamia nut tastes like Frangelico liquor – take that as you will!)
After you have sampled some of the flavors (ahem, five), then you commit to one and load it up w/​toppings! And load it up we did! The base was strawberry banana froyo, and my son added strawberries, blueberries, gummybears, a gummy worm, and m&ms to the mix (hey, it was pretty good!)
Our total was $ 2.33 or something like that. It was TOTALLY reasonable for what you get! I like the fact that you can create what you want! And you’re not paying «per topping» or anything, because then this could get totally out of hand! But the flavors were AMAZING and adding my own was nice, too. They had a million more toppings I wanted to try!
We are already planning on coming back tonight, that’s how good it was!

Bamboo Spoon, what a very interesting and UNIQUE name for a frozen yogurt café, but this is NOT your «run-​of-​the-​mill» yogurt café. Oh, no no no no, it’s definitely, something much, MUCH more!
So, lemme tell you something, I really love frozen yogurt! A lot of self-​serve frozen yogurt places have opened up in the area. After trying several in the area, there was only one favorite from which I based my frozen yogurt tastes to. Sadly, it is like 20 minutes away from me and mama needs her frozen yogurt fix at LEAST weekly. (Yeah, you heard me, WEEKLY! ;))
Enter BAMBOO SPOON… I saw the storefront ready to open in the summer and I was PURELY ECSTATIC! YAY! A frozen yogurt place that’s only about 10 minutes away… oh yes, it is a dangerous, BUT very yumola prospect.
Suffice to say, I let myself indulge in the frozen, delicious decadence of Bamboo Spoon Frozen Yogurt Café on the night of my 15^th anniversary dinner with my hubby. It was oddly also, the opening weekend of the café. So, woo!
Ok, here is the skinny…
They always have 12 flavors of frozen yogurt/​sorbet on-​tap. You can ask for a small taster cup (and I encourage you to do so, so you can taste before you fill up your cup that is EAGER to accept the frozen treasure! :)) I try to taste the NEW flavors as they have them and I’ve never really been disappointed! :) I’m more of a «Peanut Butter/​Vanilla» type, but you may go more natural.
They have Original Tart always on tap as well as at least 1 – 2 sorbets (for those who cannot ingest dairy). My favorite flavors are: Peanut Butter Perfection and Vanilla Frost. I have tasted the Dark Chocolate Decandence, Mango Peach Sorbet, Key Lime Sorbet, Heavenly Angel Food Cake, Cookies and Cream, Bamboo Banana, Dulce de Leche (definitely, like this one! Gonna get it next time!), Old Fashioned Root Beer Float, Super Strawberry, and Pomegranate Raspberry.
Suffice to say, they have a LOT of flavors to choose from and I have made it a mission to try them ALL! :) I’ve went to Bamboo Spoon every weekend since they’ve opened and I’ve not gotten tired of their frozen yogurt selection. At 53 cents an ounce, it’s worth it! But what REALLY gets me is the amount of TOPPINGS OMG they have SOOOOO many toppings, from boba, to mochi, to all kinds of chocolate candies and freshly cut fruit. You even have the neat option of not even having yogurt and just filling your cup with toppings, if you wish! The toppings bar is kept neat and clean just like the rest of the store.
The store is all about the environment and being environmentally friendly. Their yogurt cups and spoons are recyclable as well as being recycled themselves. So, enjoy some frozen yogurt and help save the planet. Win-​win, I say! :)
What about the staff, you say? The staff is VERY welcoming and FRIENDLY. Gary, the manager, is especially courteous and generous. He’s always there with a smile to greet frozen yogurt lovers into Bamboo Spoon. All the staffers are great as well as the owner Lynne. The staff is always cleaning up the tables after customers have enjoyed their frozen treats.
Bamboo Spoon definitely has a «family feel» to it and I feel like my family is welcome to enjoy delicious frozen yogurt in a cozy, modern atmosphere. The café is kept VERY clean and neat. I love the décor and the color scheme gives off that earthy-​back-​to-​nature vibe. I also love their cute little outdoor patio tables/​chairs/​umbrella.
They have the usual frozen yogurt café hours: Sunday-​Thursday 11am-​10pm
Friday & Saturday 11−11pm
So, if you are looking for delicious, good-​for-​you, frozen yogurt. Look no further! Bamboo Spoon is the place to be! So, if you want a party in your tummy. Get some Bamboo Spoon yogurt… it’s SOOOOO YUMMY! :) Like that rhyme I made? I knew you would! Heehee! GO GO NOW! ;)

Open up a self-​serve frozen yogurt spot and I will be there. For about 50 cents an ounce you can create a cool and creamy treat that will make you feel giddy and content.
Yogurtland got me hooked on the concept of self serve frozen yogurt and toppings. And Bamboo Spoon does a great job with that concept. There are about 10 or 12 different flavors. Some of their flavors on the day I visited: Tart, Tart Raspberry, Vanilla, Angel Food Cake, Strawberry, Cappuccino, Dulce De Leche, Cookies N Cream. The nice lady that greeted pretty much forced me to try some of the flavors. And I say that in a good way. Her excitement of these flavors and comments like «You HAVE to try these flavors!» was hard to ignore. The Cappuccino was indeed coffee goodness and the Vanilla was clean and crisp.
The toppings bar was full of options like fresh fruit, mochi, juice filled tapioca bubbles, nuts and crushed candy. I really liked how they offer sliced banana to order so you don’t have to pick through browning banana that’s sitting out there.
I opted for the Angel Food Cake and Strawberry, topped with mochi, fresh strawberry, crushed waffle cone pieces and few pieces of pound cake. The Frozen yogurt was delicious. Cool and creamy without any yogurty aftertaste. The AFC really tasted like it’s namesake, The strawberry was good, just a little too sweet for me.
Super friendly and enthusiastic service, clean and tidy digs. Sleek coloring that’s kind of rain-​foresty-​lite. Bamboo Spoon had lots of info up about being environmentally conscious and recycling. Way to go Bamboo Spoon!

I went there today with a friend and i would give it 3 stars. probably would rather go to red mango, pink berry or yogurt land.
Pros: the customer service was good, froyo is self serve style, indoor and outdoor seating, variety of flavors (they have a non fat flavor) and toppings, nice atmosphere to just hang out with friends.
Cons: the froyo wasn’t as tart as the other places I’ve been to, the flavored froyos just tasted like flavored ice cream, the froyo wasn’t as thick so it melted easily… cost a little more than the other froyo places.
