Yogurtland Closes First Irvine Shop


Fro-yo girl here. Remember how shocked I was when the original Yogurtland location in Fullerton, CA closed last October? I was also surprised to learn that Yogurtland’s first location in Irvine, CA closed for good. While the Fullerton location was the first, Yogurtland Irvine on Jeffrey Road opened in 2007, only a year after Yogurtland Fullerton. Since then, Irvine became Yogurtland’s town. It’s where you’ll find Yogurtand headquarters and the highest density of Yogurtland locations.

It was hard to track permanent vs. temporary closures during the coronavirus pandemic. When Yogurtland Irvine/Jeffrey Rd. closed last September, it seemed like a temporary closure. The closure was never announced on their social media accounts. Their last Facebok post was made in August 2020.

The last time I visited the location, in 2019, they were testing fancy froyo cones. I was excited to try the cones but I never saw them offered at other Yogurtland locations. Yogurtland Irvine – Jeffrey Rd. was a location where Yogurtland tested new products. Back in 2015, they served breakfast.

There are still multiple Yogurtland locations open in Irvine but there’s something special about the first one.

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