Multiple Froyo Shop Openings & Events This Week in Southern California

Fro-yo girl here. Summer is almost here and that means that prime froyo time is around the corner. It’s the time of year that froyo shops like to open. There are (at least) two set to open this week in Southern California. 

Upland, CA

Menchie’s Sycamore Hills (2085 West Baseline Rd., Suite 200, Upland, CA 91784): Menchie’s Upland will open for its first day of business on Tuesday, May 21. The grand opening celebration is this Saturday, May 25, with free froyo all day, giveaways, face painting, and a balloon artist. I’ve never had froyo in Upland before, but I’ve driven through the city while on the 210 freeway.

Murrieta, CA

Blitzer’s! Premium Frozen Yogurt of Menifee, CA is expanding to Murrieta, CA. The new location at 25030 Hancock Ave., Suite 103, in Murrieta is their second. It’s scheduled to open on Wednesday, May 22 at 3 PM with a grand opening celebration Memorial Day weekend from May 24-27. The grand opening will include giveaways, froyo and fun.

Santa Barbara, CA

Meanwhile, Yogurtland is celebrating 10 years in downtown Santa Barbara (621 State St.) on Tuesday, May 21 from 11AM – 9 PM. The celebration includes the following:

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

Yogurtland Santa Barbara’s Eighth Anniversary Celebration on May 24

Fro-yo girl here. A friend of mine just sent in a froyo tip that involves free froyo. Yogurtland Santa Barbara is celebrating its 8th anniversary tomorrow with a day full of specials.

The first eight customers of the day will receive a bounce back coupon for a free yogurt and a Yogurtland gift bag.

The first 8 ounces are free from 11 AM – 2 PM. Customers have the chance to spin the Yogurtland wheel of fortune all day to win prizes and they can also enter to win a flatscreen TV.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been to Santa Barbara but I have been to the Yogurtland there. I found a picture that I took there from 2010, back when I still struggled with my froyo swirling skills.

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

Spotted at Yogurtland Santa Barbara

Fro-yo girl here. Over the weekend I was in Santa Barbara to do a bit of Christmas shopping on State Street. Yogurtland was so busy that all the tables were taken and people were sitting outside on the sidewalk eating frozen yogurt. I was surprised to see a sign for Premium Hot Chocolate (the beverage) in the window and inside since I’ve never seen any Yogurtland sell a non-frozen yogurt food or beverage item. They had a Mexican Hot Chocolate flavor before but that was frozen yogurt.

I didn’t try the hot chocolate…I’d rather have frozen yogurt.
