Yogiberry

After Thai at my favorite DC Thai restaurant (Siam House), I was craving an ice cream sandwich. With this being the only option in the area for a frozen treat, I decided to settle.
The staff was friendly, and the décor was bright and clean. I could definitely hang out here.
The frozen yogurt was great. I love when a yogurt places have sweet options and aren’t just mostly tart (I’m looking at you, Pinkberry). I got my cup of delightful cookies and cream froyo, added my ever so yummy toppings, and enjoyed my treat post-​spicy food.
I did think the yogurt was priced a bit high, but not too bad. I would definitely come back.
My main feedback would be to offer more flavors. A lot of the machines weren’t running. Either way, a nice way to end the evening.

The first froyo place I ever went to in DC, and it still stands as one of my favorites. I love the flavors and the many toppings. Definitely getting more for your buck than at places like Pinkberry. If you’re in the area and in the mood for froyo, check it out!

Went there after dinner to get some frozen yogurt. For staters, they didn’t have the flavor I wanted and multiple machines were out of order. There was only one guy working who was clearly too busy cleaning up and more worried about going home than his customer service. When I began to ask him about one of the flavors, he wasn’t willing to explain the taste and brushed me off very rudely. His number one job was to sell frozen yogurt and he failed big time.

Pleasantly surprised! I have passed this place so many times since it’s in the same center as my nail shop and favorite Thai restaurant. I needed additional validation from the nail shop so got a fro yo! So good with the Asian toppings! During the summer I will be back!

Have been several times to this self-​serve fro-​yo spot. I’ve gotten the cake batter flavor each time, and I think it’s delicious with strawberries. The strawberries have been fresh, and they seem to have a good selection of toppings including lots of fruit, candies, etc. Priced by weight, and we usually get it to go although the inside is cute — lots of bright colors and probably great for kids.

The original flavor was a little too creamy for my taste at this location. The mango popping bubbles had a very unpleasant film around them… I assume it’s from sitting for long periods of time. It was okay, but not worth coming back.

Just your typical soft serve yogurt place. Had some unique flavors like lychee and rice krispies. The toppings were plentiful and it was a decent price. Definitely a unique and trendy décor.

Unfortunately, I have a counterpoint to the claim that Yogiberry is «impeccably clean.» There was a perfectly healthy *mealworm* rooting around in the pineapples.
Repeat: worm in the fruit.
Otherwise, mediocre quality of froyo. But who needs flavor and variety when you have worms in the fruit?

I love Yogiberry… it’s dangerously close to my apartment, though, I almost wish it wasn’t so good, for my own safety. The yogurt flavors are tasty and there is plenty to choose from. Friendly staff is sometimes out to dish out samples for you. Plenty of toppings and they keep the bar impeccably clean, wiping up the dropped stuff after almost every customer. Wish there was better seating, but that seems to be par for the course of froyo places. Reasonable price too!

Another DC fro-​yo shop, another disappointment. My fro-​yo wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t anything great. And I won’t go out of my way to come to Yogiberry any time soon. Let me break it down:
1. Flavors. Uninspiring. I didn’t expect to be blown away with flavor combinations I’d never seen before, but my options were standard– fruit, tart, chocolate. The fruit flavors included mango and mixed berry. I went with the tart and mango swirl. The mango was better than the fro-​zen-​yo mango (blehh worst mango ever!), but it still didn’t taste like real mango. The fro-​yo is on the icy side, rather than creamy. You have to get someone working to give you samples, which made me feel like I was back in kindergarten and couldn’t be trusted to fill up the tiny cups myself.
2. Toppings. The quantity of topping choices was about average. They had my favorites– coconut (although it wasn’t toasted), chopped almonds, and mini chocolate chips. These toppings give you a lot of flavor and crunch for minimal weight. Now for the strange part… all of their cookie and candy toppings were whole. Like if I wanted some Oreo pieces on my fro-​yo then I had to get a whole cookie. Same for candy. Who wants a whole kit-​kat bar sitting in their fro-​yo? There was a sign saying Yogiberry purposely keeps their toppings whole. If I’m paying by weight then I probably don’t want to commit to an entire candy bar to top my yogurt.
3. Atmosphere. There are a handful of tables and chairs, but we opted to take our yogurt to go. The store was clean.
I do like that Yogiberry is self-​serve. If you’re in the area and craving fro-​yo, then you might stop by. But I wouldn’t go out of my way for this fro-​yo.

It was an ok place… I have seen better. The flavors of yogurt were great but there’s really not a good selection for the area being so close to the zoo…
One of the ladies working there seemed a little OCD tho… she kept cleaning the yogurt dispensers not even 5 seconds after anyone used them! Made me feel like I was at grandma’s and she was not happy…
Another thing was. she cleaned the crumbs off the toppings bar while we were there… with a hand vacuum cleaner!!!
It was just too weird and kinda strict given this place is supposed to be kid friendly. Just didn’t feel comfortable or that they wanted our business more than their cleanliness…

This is definitely one of my favorite frozen yogurt places anywhere.
They have some of the best flavors, including taro and thai iced tea.
The lines move fast with the help of the people who work here. The space is kept clean.
There’s a lot of space here, some of which I feel like could have more tables and chairs for more patrons. However, I also appreciate that despite it’s popularity, it does not feel stifling inside.

I live very close by so I visit this place a lot, like a ton, like so much it’s actually a little much and maybe I have a proble. Well, anyways, I love the yogurt here and the topping bar has a lot of great options; I especially love those little liquid filed gummy balls, which I hope they bring back very soon. Also, the people working there are very nice and friendly.
I do wish they changed the flavors more often, but just the other day I was beyond stoked to see they finally, finally had lychee flavored yogurt! Perhaps, they will begin to stock that flavor more often because it’s absolutely delicious!

Yogiberry is my favorite frozen yogurt place. This location is the best (better than Bethesda and College Park) because it has many more flavors. One of my favorites is the green tea flavor which the other locations never have. Taro, tart and green tea are my top three favorite flavors.
Make sure you only fill your cup about half way with yogurt so you can get all the toppings you like. There is plenty of fruit, chocolate, cereal, cookies, etc. My favorite topping is the mochi. It is so soft and chewy. The fruit is always fresh which is great because I love the mango and raspberries.
At about .49 cents an ounce, Yogiberry is not the cheapest place. Or maybe this is because I go overboard. My average is usually about $ 5-​$ 7.

This is the best frozen yogurt you can get in town. I come here so often that I remember every yogurt flavor they have lol. I personally love the original (you have got to try it!) and the lychee flavors. So yummy!!!
Also, there’s one big plus for this place. It’s that it’s so easy to get to without a car. There’re a bus stop (metro bus L1, L2,L4) and Cleveland Park Metro Station which both are 7 steps away from the place. It’s just so convenient. The store is clean and the decoration is quite lovely. Perfect for hanging out and dessert.

Yogiberry is the only Fro Yo spot that comes close to rivaling Yogen Fruz. The greatest thing about this Yogiberry is now the saddest thing about it: it’s the only one in D.C. and the DMV area :(I used to attend the law school nearby so it was always just a few blocks away but now it’s just too far (sorry​.me again with my personal problems).
My favorite thing about Yogiberry is their Original flavor (i think it’s actually better than Yogen Fruz’ original flavor actually). It’s the only one I get because it’s a perfect consistency (nicely firm) and with just enough tart-​ness. Yumz!
They have TONS of toppings!
I do feel like Yogiberry is set up for children though. Not that I’m complaining because I gladly sat my hiney on those super low funky chairs near the window. Fun and vibrant colors decorate the inside and bring the whole place to life. It’s very whimsical in a not-​so-​over-​the-​top way. Very clean and hardly ever
place to stay and enjoy your creation.
Plenty of parking here, and although it’s ticketed entry, Yogiberry validates :)

The very first time I came here, this place wasn’t self serve. I see they’ve changed. I was here a few weeks ago again, on my way to the zoo.
The shop is cute! Its very visually appealing and clean.
There are many different flavors of froyo here. I, being a tropical anything fanatic, got coconut. And then I moved on to the toppings. Shredded coconut, sprinkles and caramel. Yup, I was in heaven. Boyfriend sampled mango and decided he liked it and went with mango and a topping of Twix. I’m confused as to why there are fun-​sized candy bars for toppings. Could they at least be chopped up? I also feel that the toppings need better labels. Some of them had labels and some didn’t. Not everyone knows what lychee is. Labeling that would probably be a good idea.
The service was fast and efficient. We were there on a Saturday and it wasn’t particularly crowded, but I feel that things would have gone just as smoothly if we were there with tons of people.
So definitely check this place out. If you’re going to the zoo and get off the Cleveland Park stop (which everyone knows you’re supposed to do because its downhill as opposed to the actual zoo stop, which is uphill). Its nice to have a froyo to walk the few blocks to the zoo with. There were tons of toppings and loads of great flavors, so I know I’ll be back to try different combinations. Also, it wasn’t very expensive, which is a plus for that area.

Self serve and it’s 49 cents/​ounce. Price seems comparable to regular service places. I got probably the equivalent of just under a size small elsewhere and loaded up on toppings, and it was under $ 4.50.
There were maybe 10 flavors to choose from. The coconut tasted like those Edy’s real fruit bars. Real coconut flavor but icier and not as creamy as Tangy Sweet or Caliyogurt. I was sooo excited to find the lychee flavor here. This one was creamier than the coconut, with tons of lychee flavor, though still not super creamy. The toppings station is kept very neat and clean and all the fruits looked fresh. The mochi bits were the perfect size and texture. The cashier was nice and filled up my water bottle from the Brita filter they keep in their little fridge.

I have loyalty issues. I cannot cheat on my current hairstylist at Bubbles and follow the Unilocaltrend to Salon Mint. I cannot cheat on Vicky, my surrogate Korean mom who paints my fingers so pretty every other week. Once I’ve made that commitment, I stick to it.
Except…last night, I cheated on Tangysweet.
There, I said it. I cheated. I love TS as it was my first KFroyo experience, and they let me display my photos at their Dupont location for (2) months! And I *love* their green tea yogurt… but…they’re not located only one metro stop away from my apartment… and I just couldn’t help myself!
I got the berry yogurt with pineapple and yogurt chips. It was really good. The yogurt was a nice, light berry flavor and the yogurt chips were delicious. The pineapple was probably not as fresh as it usually is at TS but it was passable. There was a «yogi hole» in my cup but I was kind of glad because I was so full from dinner at Cleveland Park Bar & Grill.
Em got the green tea yogurt with yogurt chips and rainbow sprinkles. We both agreed that the green tea froyo at TS is much better though Yogiberry’s wasn’t necessarily bad.
The price for my 5oz. cup with 2 toppings was nearly $ 6. Is that too much? I couldn’t decide. But because I paid cash, I won’t have to worry about
sending me alerts to say I went over my budget for cupcakes/​desserts. (Yes, they’re allotted into my budget and no, I don’t care one bit if you judge me for it.)
The décor makes you feel like you’re in some kind of bubblegum-​candy-​shop with bright lights and the white cushy banquette and tables. It’s fun but when I walked in the door, I wasn’t expecting it.
Yay for Yogiberry.
But, uh, I think I’m gonna have to go to TS this weekend to make my amends.

I was in the neighborhood on November 22^nd and was surprised to see a frozen yogurt shop having its grand opening. I was tempted to try it, but it was really really cold out that day. So naturally after gorging on a lunch at the Thai restaurant nearby, I went over to Yogiberry. Inside there was interesting décor – the chairs were futuristic egg-​mold type things, one wall and part of the floor was pebbly, and another wall was a homage to the almighty multi-​colored stripe. Funky décor aside, I’m not sure if it is a place I would visit regularly, as I felt it was quite expensive. Here are some prices from the menu:
SMOOTHIE (one size)
Yogurt blended with a choice of up to any three toppings
– Original, berry, chocolate: $ 4.95
– Green Tea: $ 5.59
SHAVED ICE (one size)
Shaved ice with syrup topped with yogurt, mochi, and three toppings
– Original, berry, chocolate: $ 7.00
– Green Tea: $ 8.14
FROZEN YOGURT
Original, chocolate, green tea*, and berry
– 5 oz: $ 2.95
– 8 oz: $ 3.95
– 13 oz: $ 6.45
* Green tea costs $ 1 extra due to it being a specialty flavor
Combo frozen yogurt (includes three toppings)
– 8 oz: $ 5.75
– 13 oz: $ 7.95
Toppings are $ 0.95/each and there are 21 (at the time I went) to choose from, including fresh fruit, granola, cap ‘n crunch, and gummy bears.
I decided to get a 5 oz green tea frozen yogurt. With tax it came to $ 4.19. Service was quick and efficient, staff was friendly and offered samples for guests to try. When they finalize the transaction, your order ticket is printed onto a sticker machine, and whoever is working as yogu-​rista peels off the sticker, reads the order, makes the item, and places the sticker onto your cup. Insignificant detail but I thought it was (geek alert!) neat and think that might help expedite orders when the place is busy.
Yogurt-​wise, it was good, not great, and since I had just finished a huge lunch, I felt like the 5 oz was just way too much frozen yogurt. But I ate it all anyway, because dammit, I paid $ 4.19 for it! If we need to do some price comparisons, for the price of a Yogiberry smoothie, you can get an all-​fruit/​yogurt smoothie from Robeks and they ask you if you want complimentary supplement added to your smoothie. When I was at Disney World, I was able to get a decent sized kakigori (snow cone) at Epcot for less than $ 5. And this is overinflated Disney theme park prices we’re talking about here. I think Yogiberry will do well in the upcoming warmer months, but as value goes, it would be something I would only get as an occasional treat.
