FroZenYo

This was my go to place for a work break when it was hot… Always kept clean. Free coffee on Mondays… I can’t believe it closed… bummer.

Nice place to hang out ! Place is busy and seem understaffed. She was only host working the cashier and cleaning up too. Poor girl but she seem very nice and polite regardless of anything !
Tried the mango and strawberry flavor and it was good. I am sure other Flavors are good too.
Ample choices of toppings as well !

A decent place to stop for frozen yogurt. I wouldn’t say it is the best self-​serve frozen yogurt place I have been to, but wasn’t completely horrible either. Thankfully the girl working there told us that the fro yo comes out of the machines extremely fast. We asked to try a couple of the flavors and surprisingly FroZenYo had rather large tasting cups. We quickly figured out why, you barely pull the handle down and quickly push it back up and the fro yo comes out so quick that it overwhelms your tasting cup. So be careful when filling your bowl, otherwise you can quickly have a lot more fro yo than you anticipated. It was a little hard to decipher what all of the toppings were because all of them were not clearly labeled. There were labels on some of the spoons for the toppings, but not all of them. Also, there was something that kind of looked like peanut butter cups that appeared pretty unappetizing as it was just melted together chocolate wads and again, it was another of the many toppings that didn’t have a label. The one upside was the free hot fudge or caramel that you could put on your fro yo after it was weighed and paid for, that was a nice plus. We mainly went for the convenience of the location so I don’t know that I’d make a special trip just to go back to this particular location.

what can i say, this is the best frozen yogurt spot ever in the area. sorry there is one in Delaware that has you beat. I always stop by one when i see it. can’t help it!

This is a coffee place as well as Frozen yogurt. They had a lot of choices, but I immediately went for the chocolate. Unfortunately, it didn’t come out. So I tried sugar free chocolate, which also didn’t work. I didn’t approach an employee (she was busy) but was disappointed the flavors I wanted didn’t work (there were no lights or anything indicating they were out of service). I got red velvet instead, which was an excellent choice. Super yummy. The topping choices were a little limited (no peanut butter cups!) and they were unlabelled which was irritating.
FREE HOT FUDGE. FREE. I would go back just for that. Hot fudge is always that difficult condiment, because you don’t want to go overboard and spend an arm and a leg on the warm deliciousness.
The cashier was friendly. Bottled water is ridiculously cheap ($ 0.50 I think?) which is always nice in a yogurt place. The counters and general areas were pretty messy, but it was also 9:30 on a Friday night so I can cut them some slack.
I heard a mom ask about nut-​free options for her child, and they had a very helpful allergen list posted on the wall.

Good location, I went at the end of the night and we were the last people they let in. Which was great for us, not great for the people behind us.

Bar none the best frozen yogurt in DC. Every one of these is awesome! There are several all over DC and I now refuse to get froyo unless it is from one of these franchises. I love the red velvet, the birthday cake, and the dulce de lecce. Sometimes the machines pour too fast or too liquidy but that only happens when they aren’t busy. If you let the employees know they will let you pour out the first gushy pours until the machine treats you right!

The yogurt was sloppy.
It was more of a milkshake than anything else.
What yogurt that maintained a semi-​solid form had texture of water-​ice. Woops.
Poorly maintained. Also rather expensive, for $ 0.50 /​ounce.

This is a standard sweet frozen yogurt place. There are plenty of flavors (such as chocoate, strawberry, vanilla, wedding cake, peanut butter, and red velvet cake) and fresh toppings (like fresh fruit, spinkles, cone pieces, candies, pound cake, sauces, and whipped cream). Everything is well laid out and the employees are friendly and efficient. Water is also priced reasonably.
The one downside is that it gets quite busy so it might not be the quickest trip.

This is the greatest froyo chain ever.
When you ask for a sample at most places, either someone comes over and helps you to a tiny sample that’s too small to taste anything, or at the better places, they give you your own little sample cup and let you do your thing. Here though, it’s a million times better: they just tell you to take your cup, grab a spoon, and go nuts.
It’s a pretty crazy sight: the store is filled with people just straight up eating yogurt out of their cups before paying. You can even start taking and sampling toppings too.
I guess they rely on the good will of people and the shame of stealing so much free yogurt to guilt them into still buying some yogurt, even though there’s really no reason to. It worked on me, as I still bought a huge cup after sampling probably $ 10 worth.
It works because the yogurt here also happens to be really really good. Very similar to 16 Handles in the great variety of flavors and the smooth, creamy taste, there are so many great options. One of the most important, the peanut butter flavor, happened to be excellent here.
I was glad to see so many of these throughout the city, as there is almost always one nearby for a great, refreshing and satisfying dessert.

Cute, clean, nice staff, and yummy! Actually cheaper than Sweet Frog in Fairfax!
If I find myself back on F Street I’ll certainly be stopping by!

I was really looking forward to my first experience at FroZenYo.
When I was there before 11 am this morning, I saw a bunch of people coming and going. It looked like they were purchasing coffee. I opted for the froyo experience.
I tried the butter pecan, cheesecake, and oreo flavors. The butter pecan first came out in a stream and then in a fast glob. Cheesecake and oreo also came out in a stream before blobbing into my cup as well. I was not impressed with the liquid consistency of the frozen yogurt nor was I particularly fond of the taste of the flavors.
As for the toppings, I found the fruit to be cut up in large chunks, too large. This is a clever manipulation by management to get customers to pay more than what they really want. I also thought the other toppings were very sticky and close together, easily allowing for cross contamination of toppings you don’t want. Compared to other places, I didn’t think there were as many topping options either.
That said, free hot fudge is offered after you pay. Beware, the hot fudge is VERY hot.
They sell bottled water for $ 0.29.
While I didn’t love the frozen yogurt or service, I will say the server was very diligent about keeping the place immaculate. He wiped up after people used the frozen yogurt machines and scrubbed the windows and counters meticulously.
I also wish they noted how much the yogurt cost per ounce. It seems like they can overcharge. When I asked for my receipt, it wasn’t itemized so I have no idea the weight or what I’m paying for. Fail.

Friday, 9:45PM.
Staff: Yonas.
Just pigged out at a restaurant a block away. Need that fro-​yo, yo!
Quicky:
+Clean establishment
+Fro-​yo was NOT runny
+MOCHI option
Suggestions:
— Brownies would be super
— Compost/​recycling receptacle could help eliminate some trash
And then???
Tried 2 of the 16 flavors. Gotta try the next two!
**********
Stuffed my face in:
1. Vanilla/​Cake Batter with mochi and crumbled cone pieces
+Just enough sweet

I turned into a 5 year old when I visited this place. So much so that a complete stranger gave me a Mom-​like, «go easy on the candy» look while I was reaching for gummy bears to add to my already insane concoction. Kit-​kats, chocolate chips, marshmallows, sprinkles, hot fudge, and waffle cone bits were a treat to eat with half peanut butter /​half chocolate yogurt. Contrast my serving to my friend who got tart yogurt with mango, granola, strawberries and blueberries and you can clearly see this place has something for everyone.*
Prices can add up very quickly, so be conscious of that since you pay by weight.
*I won, btw. My nonsensical yogurt creation was waaaaay more fun to eat than her boring «healthy-​ish» stuff! Even if I did fall into a sugar coma afterward…

Sorry FroZenYo… but this was truly a «Meh» experience. I had an intense froyo craving after eating at Toki Underground, and was in the area for some shopping afterwards so I decided to stop in.
It’s the typical froyo shop set up – tons of self-​serve flavors, with toppings all at the end. I wish the toppings bar was a little longer in the way it’s laid out, because people started to get cramped at the end. The fruit is fresh, there’s a variety of candy, they have mochi and free hot fudge… all’s well.
What doesn’t fly with me is the fact that I had JUST paid for my creation when I realized that my yogurt had already melted… by the time I finished about half, it was already a soupy mess.
I guess I’ve been spoiled by Yogiberry and Caliyogurt, the more «local» go-​to froyo spots for me. Won’t be back.

Finally made it here!!! I had wanted to try this place for so long — I was sick of the overpriced frozen yogurt at this Korean place in Ellicott City, MD. Plus, the management there changed and they racked up prices even more with quality going down the drain.
I was so excited to try this place; my brother has it on the reg and I’ve always been jealous! I had the «tart» and a bit of «strawberry». The strawberry was a no-​no, if only because of the colour. The colour looked so artificial that it probably altered my perception of taste. Plus, it wasn’t that great. I loved the «tart» though. I feel like that’s all I’ll get in the future! I got some strawberries and kiwis — the fruit is a little questionable. It’s great you can put it on yourself but the chunks are huge (granted, the cups are big, too) and it’s just all out in the open; no covers, nothing. Kind of made me think of germs.
Anyway, I’m a huge fan, can’t wait for the next time I pass one buy so I can grab a cup of «tart», sans any toppings! :)

No thanks, I like my fro-​yo to actually taste like fro-​yo, not like custard. I basically tried every single flavor before I finally made my decision (indecisive, I know). Ultimately, I settled on Cake Batter since that is my favorite flavor at Cold Stone and I always jump at the chance to have cake flavored anything.
The yogurt is supposed to be 98% fat free– which I pretty much agree with since it didn’t have much flavor (I know it was loaded with calories though).
For the toppings, I chose: peanut butter cups, heath bar, and waffle cone pieces… there goes the «98% fat free», huh?
In the end, I just wasn’t that impressed. Out of all the flavors I tried, this one had the most flavor– and this didn’t have much flavor at all! Actually, I take that back; the only other one with a little bit of flavor was the Red Velvet, but it was way too rich for consumption. I think I like the more authentic tasting frozen yogurts (a little tart, a little icy, light). The positive that sets this place apart though is the fact that it is self-​serve so you can regulate how much (or how little) of yogurt and topping that you want– and mine only came out to about $ 2.25.

OK — I’m not going to lie… this is going to be the MOST RIDICULOUS review I’ve ever written (and I’ve written my fair share of ridic)…but here it goes…
29 cent water! WOOHOO!
Yup. That’s right. I’m raving about their 29 cent water.
OK — to give it context. It was July 5^th, and just about the 3^rd hottest day of the year. We had just gone to a National’s game, and as we were leaving, we found that we were desperately thirsty, but all the food stands were closed. So we decided to get into our car, get to the nearest 7 – 11 or hotdog vendor and grab a couple of bottles of water.
So began our epic 28 minutes of driving around DC with a GPS that was too confused to tell us where we were (nevermind where the nearest CVS was). Finally, my husband turns down F street, and I spied FroZenYo… and it was open!
I hop out of the car — and noticed a sign that promised 29cent ice cold water!
SCORE!
I rushed in, the cashier lady looked at me like I was insane, but pointed to the fridge, where i pulled out 3 bottles. I tossed 2 bucks (yeah, I know, I overpaid — but I didn’t care at that point), and rushed to the car, where my husband and I guzzled our water like a pair of dying camels.
Oh, and I hear that they have fro-​yo here too. HAHAHA!

So good — nice and refreshing after walking around DC… ended up coming here 2 days in a row…
Gotta love the self-​serve, pick your toppings yogurt places!

You come in, grab a cup, fill that cup from a selection of about 16 different flavors of froyo (the cool way to call frozen yogurt nowadays), and then top it all off with everything from fruit to cereal to the classic rainbow sprinkles. You weigh what you’ve created, get charged a decent amount for it, and then you eat. The staff is very nice, very helpful, as well.
I have some advice for you greedy types. Slow down. Think about what you’re doing! Mixing in everything they offer inside an 18 oz. cup is a good idea, in theory. In practice, it’s kinda gross. I don’t know why I thought cookies ‘n cream with mango joined with some other ridiculous toppings would be redunk. It’s not redunk.
Anyway, I like the concept. Control, for the most part, is a good thing.
