Fro-yo girl here. New ownership took over Bon Bon Berry in West LA about nine months ago. The menu has been streamlined to feature better-quality products with a renewed focus on customer service. The space has been redesigned to be cozier and more inviting, making it perfect for families, students, and anyone looking to unwind. There’s free Wi-Fi, plenty of outlets, and spacious indoor and outdoor patio seating. Parking is convenient in the shared lot, and prices are wallet-friendly. And you can earn free acai bowls and free froyo with the frequent buyer card.
The menu includes four daily froyo flavors—tart, vanilla, chocolate, and one rotating sorbet—as well as refreshing smoothies and their best-selling acai bowls, which are vegan, customizable, and packed with delicious toppings. For those who prefer to enjoy their treats at home, delivery is available within a 10-mile radius, including delivery by robot!
Looking ahead, Bon Bon Berry has exciting plans in store. A grand opening and ribbon-cutting event will be held in collaboration with the local chamber of commerce. Pop-up events on the UCLA campus, street teams, and influencer collaborations will help spread the word. They’re also preparing to unveil a brand-new menu item soon—stay tuned for the big reveal! Additionally, the space is available for rental, and they offer catering for events of all kinds.

Fro-yo girl here. I recently heard that Frozen Land opened, taking over the old Yogurtland space in Westwood Village, across from the UCLA campus. I never had the chance to go to that Yogurtland, since I figured it would be open for a long time. It was there for ten years, so that is a long time.
Interestingly, there is no self-serve frozen yogurt left in Westwood Village. What’s left? Frozen Land is the only froyo option in Westwood Village proper and it’s no longer self-serve. If you go down Westwood Blvd., you’ll run into Bon Bon Berry, Penguin’s, and The Bigg Chill. Frozen Land offers 10 froyo flavors a day, along with scoopable ice cream and gelato. Bon Bon Berry replaced Frost Frozen Yogurt in 2014 and is known for acai bowls. The Bigg Chill and Penguin’s are old school, from the 90’s. Ralph’s the supermarket in Westwood Village, had self-serve froyo for awhile, but they no longer offer it. I was surprised to see the soft serve machines were still there and the empty toppings bar.
This move away from self-serve is surprising, when self-serve was all the rage for years. You can still get self-serve froyo in West LA but you have to go to Century City. Culver City, Brentwood, and Santa Monica. West Los Angeles was an important place for froyo, but it no longer feels like froyo central. Red Mango opened its first US location in Westwood Village, Pinkberry’s first location was in West Hollywood, and Pinkberry HQ was in Santa Monica. On the other hand, Westwood Village has a lot of empty storefronts, so it’s not just froyo that’s suffering.
