Fro-yo girl here. Penguin’s Frozen Yogurt in La Canada Flintridge was a LCF institution. It just closed last Sunday, October 19, 2018, after 30 years in business. The Penguin’s signs are already gone and the windows have been papered over. The story is that the owners were evicted.
There was a sign on the door with a farewell message from the owners, Marc & Patti.
Penguin’s had six soft serve froyo (it’s not self-serve) flavors a day including sugar free and low carb varieties, ice cream, smoothies, shakes, banana splits, etc.. The freezers held froyo cakes and to go cups.
One last froyo shop remains in La Canada: Pinkberry. If you love Penguin’s, the South Pasadena location is still open.
You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.

So sad! Penguins had the absolute best frozen yogurt around, especially the peanut butter!
