Menchies

Tried to hold off showing my lil one this place out of fear she would want to go here all the time and my preminition was right. Close to the crib so she gets it on special occasions. So many awesome and different toppings as well as crazy good base flavors. They only have one size cup thus making hard to control how much your spending and how many calories you really are taking in. Kids working are always super cool and they take coupons no problemo. Next time I sell plasma we will be living the highlife and its Fruity Pebble marshmallow sundae time!

Great selection of flavors and toppings! Not crazy overcrowded on a Friday night which I really appreciated!
Just be careful — cups are bigger than they look and you can end up with an $ 8 sundae without thinking.
We use the BOGO coupons that are everywhere and they work perfectly. Two healthier sundaes for less than DQ

Took my son here for a treat on his birthday. I was a bit disappointed in the selection of fruit toppings. They did have some fresh fruit, but the pieces were all too large for a child with few teeth. The service was very pleasant, and the place was clean. It was fine, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to come back.

It’s amazing how many people want fro yo on such a wicked cold day. (it was in the single digits) A few kids enjoying with there families. I’m sure they were just happy school was cancel. Place was very clean. Service was fast and friendly. She even promise not to tell my boyfriend if I happen to stop by again with him later. I did not but if I did my excuse was … Hey I’m preggers so this trip was for the baby! Shhhhh

The frozen yogurt was good, and the condiment/​candy bar was fully stocked with fresh toppings.
My only complaint is a complaint about Menchies overall, not just this location. I like my frozen yogurt to actually taste like yogurt, as opposed to ice cream… which I find Menchie’s to taste like. It’s slightly too heavy and thick for my taste… but that’s nothing against this particular shop.
The staff was friendly and are typically very young students.

I am very happy that Cleveland finally has some frozen yogurt stores opened in different cities. Love the environment and friendly service. I am not a sweet teeth so I love their tart frozen yogurt the best. I believe I will go there a lot this summer!

This is a really nice place to get a snack! So bright and cute inside. Nice staff. You can sample the frozen yogurt, too! As someone who has a slight issue with dairy but can do yogurt, I’m thrilled that these are replacing Cold Stone!
I think it’s a really reasonable price for how much you get. Lots of flavors and tasty toppings and you pay by weight. Highly recommend trying it! I prefer to get the basic yogurt and put fruit on top. so good!

When I first heard of Menchie’s I really had no interest or desire to visit it. The other day my wife and I, in Lakewood, decided to stop on by. OMG. Very good. Very nice value for the desert and a great way to compliment a shopping day or movie. Our chief complaint is that there should be more selections for frozen yogurt flavors. Also, if you’re offering flavors like cheese cake or cake batter there should be, perhaps, a topping of graham crackers. Over all an excellent place to visit.

After a dinner at Deagan’s down the street, we decided to stop into Menchie’s for some dessert. It looked like a unicorn had thrown up in there combined with a 12-​year old’s birthday party. I don’t understand why it has to look like this, but to each his own.
The yogurt itself is a little too sweet for my tastes. It might be better for those who are looking for an exact substitute for ice cream. I prefer my yogurt a tart and tangy, hence why I like Yogurt Vi in Legacy Village much better. The fruit was also sour and dry, and didn’t really make for a good dessert. However, if I’m in the area next time, I might just get some yogurt and skip the toppings altogether.

OMG! IT’S LIKE… SO…BRIGHT & SUGARY IN HERE!
I feel like I’m at an 8-​year-​old girl’s birthday party. But not one of the girls I grew up with (rural small town, with shared bedrooms and hand-​me-​down clothes)…a wealthy girl with the latest cool clothes and her OWN room, decorated perfectly to a theme. This isn’t a bad thing, necessarily. So why the birthday party feeling, not just hanging out in this girl’s perfect fantasy bedroom with a miracle soft serve machine? There are screaming kids shotgunning frozen sugar e-​ver-​ree-​where.
I like «Pay for what you’ll eat» concepts. Although the cups are giant and most of the patrons take advantage of this by just heaping the froyo and toppings in, I covered the bottom of mine with yogurt and chose a light amount of 4 toppings (3 cheesecake cubes, 6 chocolate-​caramel mini turtles, sprinkles, and rainbow non-​pareils). As such, my total was a little over $ 3. The girl who paid ahead of me? Here’s was almost $ 7. You are charged by the ounce. The 2 flavors I chose were red velvet and raspberry cheesecake. Tasty, although I’ll probably just go with cheesecake if there’s a next time. I like the toppings to be the star of the show.
The spoons are really cute too. I think there were about 18 flavors of frozen yogurt (and you can swirl the neighbors too), and probably about 30 toppings. There are nuts present… careful if you’re allergic. Parking is available behind the strip where this is located.

Menchies is delicious and all, but the inside is so sterile and modern. I prefer the old time charm of Malley’s, even though you can’t really compare froyo to ice cream.
Easy access and a decent addition to downtown Lakewood.

I’m being obsessed with Menchie’s over night! I am a HUGE FAN!
I’m formerly a traditional chocolate or vanilla girl. but I’m happy to say I’ve been inspired to try many of their variety of flavors! Some of my favorites include Snickerdoodle, Banana, Thin Mint, Dulce de Leche, and Apple Pie.
The staff is always extremely friendly and you are also able to sample a few flavors before you build your own bowl. I love mixing and creating my perfect bowl. They have great toppings and sauces too. I sometimes add fudge.
The prices are decent and the reward card adds up quickly. I also love their plastic spoons!
Also I love their branding and marketing. My boyfriend has been known to say he feels like he is inside a «cartoon world» while inside.
SO glad this place is close to my work… viva la summer!
I heart Menchies!!!

One day, when it hit 60 degrees at the end of January in the middle of Cleveland, I had a craving for some sunshine and fro-​yo. I just moved in to a new place and my front porch is fantastic for lounging and people watching.
So I ventured the mile or two to Menchies. I saw multiple flavors of frozen yogurt and sorbets, and they all sounded fantastic. I settled on mixing red velvet and cake batter (mean, I did the healthy thing by walking there, right?). Then added multiple mix ins. It was epic, I swear. The add ins were fresh, and the whole presentation was pretty clean.
They charge by the ounce, but for about three bucks I got quite a bit to eat! Oh, and those spoons are adorable. Menchies definitely hit the spot!

Real cute. I mean like something out of a TV show cute
the décor is adorable and the staff is overly enthusiastic, the flavors are constantly rotating the toppings are super fresh .
I like to get a variety of FYRO and toppings and mix them all together, I really havent found my ‘mix’ yet, but really have been enjoying the challenge
The manager, Scott seems to really care about his location, he has done a really awesome job creating a ‘local’ vibe in a super corporate ice cream/​frozen yogurt shop

I like the experience at Menchies because sometimes I hate dealing with people. You walk in, grab a cup, and fill it up. The flavors change on a consistent basis which it a plus for me. I do like how you can mix and match. This last visit I purchased the Red Velvet, Pumpkin, and Chocolate. Looking at the wall they probably had about 15 different types of frozen yogurt. The establishment is well lit and clean. The charge you by the weight so you can spend a little or a lot. 45 cents an ounce.
Trendy place that will lose its flair in a year, but over good experience. 4 Stars.

Had the pumpkin flavor last night and I discovered that the bottom lever in the middle mixes the two flavors, I’m in love :)

I am a huge fro-​yo fan. For years I have been hoping we’d get a Pinkberry after my trips to LA to see my sister and trying this delectable treat. In Cupertino, CA there was a place more like Menchie’s though, where you can sample the flavors and pairings and then make your own bucket-​o-​yumminess. And, really, it is as big as a bucket.
While I get it that something that size allows me to over-​serve myself, I would like a smaller container to keep me a little more on track. I am not about all the toppings, though those were abundant; I was there for the fro-​yo solo! I tried all different pairings and I am more about the tart flavors. My faves were the pomegranate and mango sorbet twist and the cheesecake and strawberry twist. With the plain was a key lime or kiwi strawberry – something with a k that escapes me now – that I enjoyed as well.
Oh, and one more thing… I LOVED that spoon. So cute!

These Menchies are seemingly popping up all over the place, so we decided to take a walk through downtown Lakewood and check out this newest one.
The interior is sort of a J-​Pop meets Star Trek explosion, almost reminding me of the late lamented Capsule in it’s hey day.
After getting a quick run-​down on proper Menchies procedure from one of the dozen or so super-​friendly staffers, we made the rounds of the froyo pumps and topping bar winding up where we started at the weighing station (for the froyo –not customers)/register where we again basked in the glow of a billion smiles.
Maybe this is coming off as overly sarcastic, and honestly, I don’t mean it to be. Other than being a bit crowded, which is understandable at an ice cream shop on a summer night, we had a really good experience. The variety of flavors and toppings was good (especially the red velvet yogurt), the service was friendly, and the space was clean.
At this point, there is certainly no shortage of spots for frozen confections in the Lakewood area, but I don’t think Menchies is necessarily stepping on any toes, while my usual preferences lean away from chain establishments, Menchies, like the Five Guys next door, is one I don’t feel bad about visiting.

I decided to go a little early (before noon) because I’ve been itching to try this place. When I walked through the doors, everything was so bright and clean, lol. Yes the workers were super enthused but it wasn’t too annoying. I got an odd combination of the Snickerdoodle and Cookies & Cream with some crazy mix-​ins. I thought it was pretty good. Nice music selection playing in the background while chowing down on some frozen yogurt :)
Now if it gets super packed like some people described, it would be impossible to go there with a few friends, hang out and eat frozen yogurt. Well unless you want to stand, hang out outside or eat it in your car lol.‘ Extremely convenient location and I’m pretty sure I’ll be back. I don’t remember seeing some kind of patio area but it there isn’t, it would be pretty nice to have one.

Although the vibe is friendly and the yogurt is tasty, this place is so overcrowded that I don’t think I’ll be coming again. I’m not sure what’s going on. I know they just opened, and I know it is Saturday night … but the wait was soooo long, there’s no room to move because people are just standing around sampling a ton of flavors and not moving along … and frozen yogurt melts! I can’t be here all day!
I came here earlier in the week and was pleased because I was only one of three or so people, and I was also impressed by the large number of tables they have, unlike the Westlake location which seems smaller.
Although the staff seems to be trying hard, they just seem super young and inexperienced. One guy even told me to «hold on» while he made his coworker count some change for him … as I was about to hand her my money. I wanted to say, «Ok, no problem, I won’t pay!» As I said before … frozen yogurt melts! It’s not good after too long. Forget taking it to go. That dream was killed after a few minutes of waiting in line.
One last thing — I love the Original Tart flavor in the Westlake location, and I even loved it in the Lakewood one earlier in the week. But tonight it tasted REALLY off. My husband didn’t finish his because it was so bad.
I hope this place gets their act together soon, because it’s a great concept and they have great tasting yogurt.
P. S. The map attached to this listing is wrong. I’m not sure whether it’s google maps’ issue or what, but I got the address from Menchies’ website (although I suppose that can be wrong too!). The store is located off of Gladys Avenue on Detroit, next to Five Guys.
