Yogurtland Burbank Opens After Remodeling

 

Fro-yo girl here. Yogurtland in Burbank, California, closed for remodeling from March 25 – March 27. I visited to see how the remodel turned out. The tiny square green tiles that adorned the wall of froyo machines and the toppings counter have been removed and replaced with faux wood laminate. The green wall by the toppings bar was also replaced with faux wood laminate.

The froyo wall has a more colorful logo now and it says From our Yogurtland dairy. Yes, Yogurtland has its own dairy. 

The light fixtures haven’t changed. Mostly, the green has been removed and replaced with faux wood laminate and new signs were installed.

You still can't get your own toppings! Why....

I noticed a few Yogurtland locations have recently been remodeled, such as the one in Arcadia, which was remodeled in January of this year. It looks similar to the one in Burbank.

Yogurtland Burbank Closed for Remodeling

 

Fro-yo girl here. Yogurtland in Burbank, California, is closed for remodeling from March 25 – March 27. I noticed a few Yogurtland locations have recently been remodeled and am curious to see the new look at Yogurtland Burbank. Note, the Yogurtland website and app and Google Places do not note that this location is currently closed.

Yogurtland Sign Removed in Burbank, CA

Fro-yo girl here. Back in September 2022, I reported that Yogurtland in downtown Burbank had closed in August 2022. The soft serve machines and toppings bar, even the water dispenser and signs were still inside at that time. And that’s how it stayed for a few months. Even in early December, the Yogurtland sign was up. The inside hasn’t been demolished but things have been removed. Well, the Yogurtland sign has now been removed and they recently put up a for lease sign (a few days after this picture was taken). The tables are still inside and the counter is still there too. I'll report back on what happens to the space.

If you're in downtown Burbank and want froyo, Pinkberry is still open.

Painful California Froyo Shop Closures of 2022

Yogurtland, Burbank, Media Center

Fro-yo girl here. Before turning the page on another year, I like to take a moment to remember a few froyo shops that closed during the year. This year, there were fewer froyo shop closures and none of the closures were very painful, but I do have a few that I'd like to mention.

Menchie's, 1040 Mission St., South Pasadena, CA 91030

Menchie's South Pasadena closed this summer. It was the one closest to my house, so I'd been there many times. Truthfully, it went downhill a long time ago many years ago. Part of me is glad that it closed because it reached such a miserable state. The soft serve machines were acting up and they barely offered any flavors. Sometimes the froyo was very icy. 

Yogurt World, 701 Sonoma Mountain Pkwy Suit, B-3, Petaluma, CA 94954

I've never been to the Yogurt World in Petaluma, but it was over 30 years old, so it deserves a mention.

Yogurtland, 304 N San Fernando Blvd, Burbank, CA 91502

There are two Yogurtland locations in Burbank. The one in downtown Burbank closed in the fall. I've gone by a few times since then, and the space hadn't been cleared out yet. 

Yogurtland Burbank Media Center was nearly 13 years old. I went a few times, including to the 5th anniversary celebration.

Yogurtland Downtown Burbank (Media Center) Closes

Fro-yo girl here. Sad news. Yogurtland in downtown Burbank (Media Center) has closed. It happened pretty recently. The shop still has toppings inside and nothing has been removed from the interior. But Yogurtland has removed the location from their website, the Yogurtland Burbank Facebook page says permanently closed, and the other Yogurtland location in Burbank confirmed the closure. The sign for Watermelon Sorbet with Sour Patch Kids flavor was still up.

There was no sign on the door explaining the closure and no announcement that I’m aware of.

Yogurtland Burbank Media Center was nearly 13 years old. I went a few times, including to the 5th anniversary celebration. Those were the good old days. I tried to go more recently but they were open odd hours and it always looked dark inside, like they weren’t turning on the lights. The reviews from this year are mostly very negative, citing unpredictable hours, stale toppings, runny froyo, broken machines, etc.

Yogurtland still has a branch in north Burbank on Victory Blvd.

Yogurtland Burbank Media Center 5 Year Anniversary Celebration

Fro-yo girl here. Happy 5 year anniversary to Yogurtland Burbank Media Center and thanks for the anniversary bash!

People in/near Burbank love their froyo, judging from the size of the line before the shop opened. A few minutes before 11AM the music started, courtesy of DJ Vicious Lee. They also had a face painting station and spin the wheel station outside.

At 11 AM the doors opened. A friendly Yogurtland employee handed each guest an 8 oz Yogurtland cup which he/she could fill with as much froyo and toppings as desired. Pumpkin pie froyo was on tap...after leaving the register, someone handed me a green Yogurtland cooler bag, coupon for 3 oz of free froyo and a spoon. I then wandered over to the prize wheel. Prizes included coupons for free froyo, Yogurtland cooler bags, pencils, keychains, water bottles, etc. I won a Yogurtland megaphone which will come in handy at sporting events and graduations. They also had raffle giveaways every 30 minutes.

The celebration continues till 8 PM tonight.

2 - 5 PM: First 3 ozs free
5 - 8 PM: Buy one, get one free
