Yogurtland Opens on Third Street Promenade in Downtown Santa Monica

 






Fro-yo girl here. Yogurtland recently opened a new store at 1321 Third Street Promenade in downtown Santa Monica. It’s not that far from the other Yogurtland at 304 Santa Monica Blvd.

I visited the Yogurtland on Santa Monica Blvd. in 2021 and had a terrible experience. It was obvious that they were not maintaining the froyo machines. The froyo was disgusting. To add insult to injury, it was $0.99/oz. Naturally, I wasn’t excited to hear about the new location.

Like other Yogurtland locations, you'll find 16 self-serve froyo flavors a day and toppings. However, the price is much higher (it's a touristy area) at $1.32/oz (compared to $0.70 at the average YL). The soft serve machines are new and the shop looks nice since it's new. They've abandoned the square green tiles in favor of faux wood.

Interestingly, the new shop is already for sale.

"This newly built YOGURTLAND FRANCHISE, featuring all new equipment, is situated in a prime location in Santa Monica, CA. Specifications:

Size: Approximately 1,400 sq. ft.

Rent: $17,350 per month, including NNN (Triple Net Lease)

Lease Term: Until March 30, 2033, with two additional 5-year renewal options."

The Santa Monica Blvd. shop is expected to close in October. The new location hasn't had a grand opening yet.

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

* YOGURTLAND: 1321 3rd St Promenade. Santa Monica, CA 90401
