Glendale, California Froyo Updates

 

Prinkipia kiosk

Fro-yo girl here. Last June, I wrote about the froyo scene in Glendale, California. At that time, there were five places to get froyo or vegan soft serve and another one in the works, Prinkipia Frozen Yogurt. Prinkipia had planned to take over the Go Greek Yogurt kiosk at the Glendale Galleria. I posted some pictures of the work on the kiosk back in March 2020. The sign for Prinkipia was visible. This was all pre-pandemic though. The Prinkipia signage has been removed and they put a barrier around the kiosk.

Ice ‘n’ Cream has closed. The sign is still visible but if you peek through the gate, you’ll notice they’ve removed everything inside. Ice ‘N’ Cream was an old school snack stand inside Glendale Galleria that opened in 1988. The menu includes fresh juices, gelato, Thrifty Ice Cream, fruit cup, bionicos, smoothies, slushies, nachos, frozen bananas, ICEE, boba milk tea, and frozen yogurt.

Haagen Dazs at the Americana no longer offers froyo. Enjoyer, the gourmet popsicle stand that had froyo popsicles, switched to vegan only pops and closed for good during the pandemic.

This means that there is no froyo at the Americana or Glendale Galleria. There are some soft serve options though: Somi Somi (taiyaki ice cream), Pressed Juicery (vegan Freeze), and McDonald’s.

Outside of the mall area of Glendale, Yoga-urt has renewed its lease in Kenneth Village and Menchie’s has reduced its hours drastically. They’ve been open Friday-Sunday only for months now.

I’d say about 75% of the pre-pandemic mall tenants are still there though some are closed but haven’t cleared out. Some of the closures include Honeyboba, The Pie Hole, Tsujita, and Forever 21. I hope Marugame Udon reopens.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
