Lick

I love it here!
One of the first frozen yogurt places in Brighton and definitely one of the best. They always have two flavours, plain and a «special guest». The toppings vary as well and they always have a great selection. Last time I went I had peanut butter brownies, which were incredible!
If you are in Brighton on a sunny day (or a even a cold one…) head to Lick!

the best fro-​yo i ever had. and trust me, i had a few. :) they do great different toppings, no matter if fresh fruits or chocolate! plus the staff is great, always friendly and bubbly! one of my favourite shops in brighton!

This is not the type of yogurt place where you run around dumping random flavors and toppings in your cup of your own accord (not that those aren’t fun), but the more civilized (and pricey) shop where they do things for you. And, it’s got really, really quality frozen yogurt. The natural tasted delicious, and its texture was great too, a rare combination.

YUMMY! perfect place for a wee treat on a lovely, sunny saturday in brighton. i had a medium original frozen yoghurt with mango, coconut and honey (it was £3.95 for a medium, plus three toppings) and it was truly delightful! i suppose for what you get it’s a pretty expensive treat, but definitely worth it once every so often!

Die Idee ist einfach: Softeis mit x-​verschiedenem Obendrauflecker und lustik: o) !!

I first discovered Lick over three years ago. I came from LA, where Pinkberry had just gotten started on its world tour of domination, so I was pre-​exposed to the frozen yogurt craze.
My flatmates and I loved coming here for a little treat when the weather started getting warmer.
Lovely place, kind (read: FIT!!) servers, great add-​ins, fun art on the walls — All-​in-​all, a deLickous experience!

What’s the fuss about frozen yogurt? I found out at Lick.
The frozen yogurt is served in tubs, and pumped out of a machine so it resembles a Mr Whippy. But looks are deceiving. It’s now sweet and cloying like that, it’s crisp and cleansing. Delicious. But it’s a bit boring on it own. so take your choice of an array of toppings, sauces and sprinkles. I had mine with raspberry sauce. Tart and luxurious, I loved it.
I like the spartan, cutesy interior and the seating outside in bustling Gardner Street is a good spot. A pleasing stop off on a hot day.

If Pinkberry existed in the UK, Lick would kick their pastel-​colored butts.
Lick’s recipe, whatever it is, turns out with a much creamier, much lickier, much cheaper version of Pinkberry.
I’m not meaning to compare the two so much, but being an American, I’ve dealt with the Pinkberry craze all too often over the last couple of years.
And lastly, the boys who own/​run the place are hot AND nice :)

I’ve always loved an ice cream and always been a bit sceptical of forzen youghurt, theres something very wrong about the sound of it to me!
Hesitantly I gave it a go, and to me surprise I was impressed (not with the price it must be said) but I loved the taste and would definatly return, but probably on a hot summers day as it would brake up the hustle and bustle of lanes nicely.
With their youghurt based events that they put on it will keep the trade coming through the doors even when it is cold outside!

When I was in Canada, I used to eat a lot of Yogen Fruz (it’s just frozen yogurt with a fancy name). But something happened, and there was a rapid decline in Yogen Fruz’s quality. The Yogen Fruz I had in 1996 wasn’t the same as the Yogen Fruz I had in 2006. The taste was different, and not in a positive way. Perhaps it’s because I’m a highly nostalgic person, and tend to romanticize the things that happened in my youth, but, when I became an adult, Yogen Fruz just didn’t have that same quality to it. And since my taste buds were disappointed, I decided to stay away from — not just Yogen Fruz — but frozen yogurt in general. That was until I saw Lick.
I was hungry, and it was hot outside. And those are two things that would make a person want frozen yogurt. Was it good? Sure, it was pretty good. Not mind-​blowing, but very decent. If I can compare it to anything, it reminded me of the Yogen Fruz of 2006, and not the wonderfulness that was Yogen Fruz in 1996. But it was still a tasty treat that I very much enjoyed.

Before going to Lick I’d never tried Frozen Yoghurt. Since my first trip here I’d happily eat it everyday. The products served here are truly delectable, and the staff are charming, professional and truly friendly. Definately a place worth visiting if you happen to be in the North Laines area.

Lick is expertly designed– everything about it is simple and beautiful– crisp blue and white, light wood. I love the customised decal on the window– very Willy Wonka meets Swedish design. As an ice-​cream addict, I am hugely grateful for frozen yoghurt which gives me the creamy cold hit without all the sugar and fat– thank you! The frozen yoghurt here is crisp and lemony but not too sour– very fresh and perfectly suited to the fruit topping and/​or fruit coulis. I have yet to try the more decadent chocolate topping or the peanut butter option– they sound brilliant. My only issue is that it is expensive– over £2.50 for a small serving with one topping, but then it is all organic and fresh… maybe I’m being unfair! We definitely need more frozen yoghurt around though. what’s taking so long, it’s the only American trend we haven’t embraced!

Everything about Lick is cuteness personified:
The acid green chairs and light wooden benches.
The spiralling white lampshades.
The pink and blue tubs.
The selection of fresh fruit, chocolate and nuts.
The slightly nerdy and nervous staff.
The cool electro-​pop.
I’m just slightly cross with them because I walked all the way across town for a peanut butter and banana fro-​yo — having licked and loved it at the Duke of York — and they didn’t have any. C’mon Lick. It’s Sunday.
You should have looked in your magic ball and ordered extra!

The minute we walked past Lick, we all said ‘oh we have to go back there’ and then talked about it for the rest of the afternoon. Even after lunch and cake, we made a beeline in the door and ogled the toppings.
Lick fro-​yo is in no way trying to pretend to be real ice-​cream, it’s very yoghurty but so refreshing and tasty. After eating my own topped with chocolate and strawberries, I plowed into my friend’s who had chosen a delicious raspberry coulis. Just thinking about it now, I could so eating another tub right now!

What Lick lacked in selection, they made up for in high lickability. So stick that on your spoon and lick it. (Cause I did.)
At this point, I would consider myself a fro-​yo pro. So on the yardstick of fantastic frozen yoghurt, it was only moderately delicious compared to some of its world wide competition. But running in from the cold, wet, rainy lanes and using Lick not only as a tasty treat but a safe haven? It was just what the doctor ordered.
I would certainly lick again.

I was immediately disappointed to discover Lick didn’t have mochi on offer as a topping for their frozen yoghurt. I pressed forward despite this and ordered a small serving with raspberries (which came in pureed form.)
The lack of whole berries only served to fuel my skepticism but one bite and I realized that this raspberry sauce commingled with the frozen yoghurt quite nicely.
If you’re feeling quite knackered after an afternoon racing ’round the lanes, Lick is a perfect pick-​me-​up!

You really cannot go wrong here! My favourite is simple plain with milk chocolate chips.
