Menchie’s Frozen Yogurt

My favorite froyo place in the area. I live right down the street and when its nice out ill walk over and grab some. Its never really too packed in there and they always have a pretty wide variety of flavors and they tell you which ones are a little more healthy or have no sugar. The toppings is where Menchies really gets good as they have plenty and they are always fully stocked. They also have a loyalty card which you can give them your number and get free rewards after a certain amount purchased.

Lots of choices of delicious yogurt flavors with a wide selection of snackage, chill, and sauce toppings. Easy to get to via metro bus and has convenient free parking under the Giant for 1 hour. Inside decorations are pretty vibrant.

I like the service and taste… Sample little bowls free and we can pick what i really liked.

Two stars for customer service. It is 8:53 and the man at the register rushed us and then locked the door behind us all pissed off. They had apparently tried to clean and close early but then we came and used the machines. Glad to know they clean, but don’t give us attitude for coming to this establishment. Plus they continued to mop as we were getting our frozen yogurt which was very unsafe and someone could’ve slipped and hurt themselves. We love coming for froyo but the staff needs a change. If you don’t like your job, don’t work there.

I love this froyo place! It’s by the ounce.
When you walk in everything is very clean and organized. If you’ve never tried their froyo before, they have sample cups out in the open. This is really nice because a lot of places that are self-​served make you go up to one of the employees to get sample cups. On the flavor labels, it shows the benefits to the yogurt and the amount of calories. It’ll say if it’s kosher free, fat free, low fat, etc. My favorite is their vanilla snow!
After you swirl up your yogurt they have the toppings very neatly presented. I always get granola, almonds, and fruit on mine! After you weigh it and pay, they have really adorable spoons with their mascot on top! :)

I’d try this place again, but I thought the peanut butter yogurt was pretty terrible. The chocolate brownie or whatever was quite good though.
I hate the large cups though, I never want that much ice cream and it feels weird to only fill it ¹⁄₃ of the way, plus it’s pretty difficult to get a small amount given how fast the yogurt comes out. I’m sure it’s by design, and I’m against it in principle, but I get it.

A-​OK spot to get a sweet treat. There were a lot of different flavors. I tried a little of the oreo, caramel, peanut butter cup, and coffee. I didn’t like the coffee but the others were good. There are an assortment of toppings. The fruit looked pretty fresh. It was clean in the food area as well as the bathrooms. The bathrooms are single entry rooms and both had changing tables.
The woman working there was hard to find. We had to call out for assistance so we could pay. After we paid she disappeared again, no ‘thank you’ or ‘have a nice a day’ or anything really. She just went into the back area again.
A word to the wise — just because the cups are big doesn’t mean you have to fill it. Yes it is a sales /​marketing tactic; no, you do not need to fall victim, you don’t need to fill the cup. (I say this partly for myself but you get the point…)
There is seating inside and outside. Today was a great day to sit outside, enjoy some frozen yogurt, and chat with a friend, and Menchie’s was an A-​OK place to be doing it.

This is your typical make your own concoction frozen yogurt place. Not cheap but pretty good. The various flavors of frozen yogurt were quite creative, but I didn’t think that the taste of those flavors was intense or unique. I had a combination of the banana and another contrasting flavor and it was difficult to tell them apart.
All in all it was quick, convenient, expensive and satisfying.

Yogurt flavor selection is massive of course. Original is not that great… but most of the other flavors are alright. I ended up getting cookies n’ cream and salted caramel… yeah, I know, sweetness overload. Anyways, it’s your typical yogurt place where weight matters. The topping selection was high and they had a few liquid toppings too. It IS a tad bit pricey though… but you should expect that at fro-​yo places nowadays.
If you want to sample flavors, there’s a tray with a bunch of sample cups that you could just use yourself. The employee there was MIA during our entire sampling process though so maybe we weren’t allowed to sample as much as we did. I don’t know. I just found it weird that she was gone for a while and we had to wait a bit at the register before she came out and charged us for our yogurt.
It’s a slightly above average place but nothing really stands out from other fro-​yo places.
710, would come again.

Love this place. Make your own desert with great yogurt flavors like Cookies and Cream, Red Velvet, Coconut, Dulce De Leche and vanilla just to name a few. Then the toppings, so many delicious toppings! Be careful because it’s easy to lose control and pile on the sweet goodness. However besides the fact that there are a lot of sweet toppings there are healthy toppings too
This is a dessert lovers dream!

What can I say? I mean it’s good, lots of topics and tasty. You pay by the pound.

Yooooo this place was awesome. I’ve been a Fro-​Yo head for years and this was first time to Menchie’s. I’ve tried other frozen yogurt places in the past but nothing had beaten Fro-Yo…until now. The toppings, the flavors, the set up of the shop, the kind employees… The flavors and toppings easily outnumbered Fro-​Yo and the flavors themselves were tastier. I’ll be back. Fro-​Yo, you better step your game up :/

I typically love menchies, but today (6÷24÷15 @ 2:50pm) I was totally grossed out. The staff has had a changeover and they are not as attentive and they don’t watch over the machines (I’ve actually been in menchies when these ladies were working and they weren’t very attentive the other time).
Today, There were two moms there with their 3 young kids which were younger than 5ys old). The moms weren’t watching what their kids were doing. And the two cashiers were just chatting among themselves. I witnessed one kid on 3 occasions take her saliva covered fingers from her mouth and stick them into the machines to taste the frozen yogurt. Another one saw what one had done and she copied her. It was beyond unsanitary. The first time it happened, I said something to the mother and she just grabbed her for a second and then then let her go. She didn’t watch over her at all after that and I saw her do it two more times. I wasn’t watching the whole time so she could have contaminated more spouts.
The two staff people up front weren’t facing the machines at all. They spoke limited English and when I complained they seemed to understand it was gross but they never looked at the machines or watched the children at the machines after I complained. I even pointed out the kids who had contaminated the machines and they didn’t say a word to the parents or the children. I told them I had planned on buying yogurt but after witnessing how unsanitary and contaminated the dispensers were, couldn’t. It made me sick to my stomach. The kid had put her hands all over the door before we walked in and in her mouth (I’m sure she touch plenty if other surfaces before then)
All they said when a group of us walked in was welcome to menchies. They didn’t ask if anyone had been there before or provide info about the tasting cups (which I knew about as I had been a regular until today).
I don’t know if I’ll be going back now. I definitely won’t be going on days I see the two ladies who were working the front today. Those two ladies are an example of people who just ‘work’ somewhere and do the bare minimum. Menchies didn’t have the customer service flair and welcoming feeling that I’ve come to know and love. That coupled with children’s saliva all over the ends and up inside the machines where yogurt is dispensed is downright unhealthy and unsanitary.
I hope management reads this and does something to rectify the problem.
All I knew is I used to crave menchies and now I absolutely don’t. Time to go back to Frozen-​yo or somewhere where clients must get tastings from staff directly.

I had an ice cream craving and decided to get yogurt instead. My first time at Menchies. Not bad. Quite tasty. A variety of yogurt flavors and toppings, weighed by the pound.
If ever an ice cream/​yogurt craving strikes again, I’ll come here.

Pretty decent fro yo spot in south Arlington, I still think I prefer Sweet Frog because the yogurt flavors and toppings bar are better. Just this past weekend they had Nutella fro yo, which kind of just tasted like chocolate icecream. They have tart too, which is always a plus. I’m not wowed but it hits the spot.

One of the best frozen yogurt places I’ve tried around the DC area. I’ve been here multiple times and have always been satisfied. It’s a great place to go after dinner or just for an afternoon treat.
My favorite is still their original tart which is so refreshing. They have interesting flavors like mudslide or Irish mint in addition to the regulars. I think they also change up the flavors pretty often too. The consistency of the frozen yogurts are different depending on the flavor. They have pretty good toppings too, including Michi and caramel turtles.
The place is always clean with plenty of sitting room. I love tray they have the sampling cups out by the cashier so you can take them at your leisure.

I’ve been looking for a frozen yogurt place like one for SO LONG.
You get to try whatever you want and make whatever you want yourself without having to point at everything in the window. Plus, they have all the options you could ask for!
The servers are really nice and helpful and the whole place looks super fun and friendly. The yogurt is also surprisingly not that expensive!
Super well done. Too bad it’s not metro accessible…

I love this place! Best froyo in town hands down! What I like about this place is you’re the one in charge of what you want and how you want your froyo. There about 6 – 8 diffrent yogurt flavors and you can sample it before you decide which one is best. I usually get the vanilla and the red velvet flavor yogurt.
Once you pick out your yogurt, you move to the topping bar which has so many different varieties of toppings! My favorite is the cheesecake bites, brownie bites, toffee, granola, almonds and fresh pineapples! So many diff toppings it’s hard to not put everything in your bowl! Once you’re done, they weigh in your bowl and I usually pay about $ 6. I will never go elsewhere for my froyo but Menchie’s!

Alright. I rolled in here for the grand opening after seeing Lia’s check-​in and thought what a great idea. I’ve been watching the place under construction for awhile and glad to see they’ve finally open their doors.
The owner greeted me and we chat briefly. We spoke about Unilocal,and said Kimberly V. had stopped in earlier take pics and what not. I’m looking forward to her review. As far as my impression goes, I think this is a solid yogurt shop. Definitely one of the more kid friendly yogurt stores I’ve seen in a long while. It screams family atmosphere even providing a birthday room for parties.
The yogurt is normally .45 per ounce. Today it was free, and extremely good. I got the banana cheesecake yogurt and loaded it up with fruit toppings. I tend to avoid chocolate toppings and such so it won’t delude my delicious banana flavor.
Staff seemed friendly. I was happy with what customer service I interacted with. Today it was pretty much roll in and do your thing which didn’t really call for a lot of customer/​cashier interaction.
I’ve got a feeling this place will be hoping for awhile. This is a chain establishment without the chain feeling.

I woke up at ten this morning with the wind howling outside of my window. I took a peek outside to see what all of the hullabahoo was all about only to be surprised by a giant swirl cone doing the two step across the street. Turns out Columbia Pike’s first frozen yogurt joint has finally opened!
My boyfriend and I raced across the street in pure glee only to be met with even MORE happiness and sunshine. The Menchie’s staff greeted us with a big smile and explained a little bit about their product (all organic, handmade flavors!) and let us have at it with their sampling cups.
My favorite flavors were the banana cheesecake, mud pie, and peach but I stuck it out with my trusted «tangy» and topped it off with some fresh fruit, mochi, and the most out-​of-​this-​world passion fruit boba I have ever had. This boba had a delightful burst and flavor — — it is the equivalent to ice cream caviar. Delicious and addicting, I wish I added some more to my cup! The owner of the store Robert, convinced my boyfriend to get a freshly made waffle cup which we both thoroughly enjoyed as well. To make our experience even more joyful, he gave us a choice of either a pink or green spoon with a swirly man on top as well as stickers and Menchie swirl man paper action figures. Forget Disney World, Menchie’s is the happiest place on Earth!
I can see myself becoming a regular here. My only suggestion is to carry different size cups for portion control purposes. I totally got carried away trying to make the perfect swirl. Also, please add the pineapple whip flavor to the menu! After hearing Elly S and Kat S talk about it for so long, I’ve been DYING to try it.
