Menchie's Burbank
Fro-yo girl here. It’s time for another list update. It’s been over four years since my last post about my favorite locations of the froyo chains of Los Angeles. Most of my favorite locations have changed.
Menchie's
2024 favorite: Menchie’s Burbank
2020 favorite: Menchie’s Valley Village
2016 favorite: Menchie’s Monrovia
Menchie’s Valley Village is still very good. It’s the original (first) location of Menchie's. However, it is smaller (fewer flavors) and usually crowded. Menchie’s Burbank is clean, less crowded, and has 16 froyo flavors a day. They’re very organized during the free froyo events. The froyo texture is better too. Menchie’s Burbank wasn’t always as good as it is now. The new ownership made the difference.
Pinkberry
2024 favorite: Pinkberry Los Feliz
2020 favorite: Pinkberry Los Feliz
2016 favorite: Pinkberry Glendale
There isn’t much choice because the next closest Pinkberry in Burbank has a lot of issues with their soft serve machines and the one in Monrovia doesn’t participate in the Pinkcard rewards program. Pinkberry Los Feliz is fairly reliable though the yogurt is a bit icy.
Yogurtland
2024 favorite: Yogurtland Eagle Rock
2020 favorite: Yogurtland San Gabriel
2016 favorite: Yogurtland Pasadena on Lake
I believe the ownership of Yogurtland San Gabriel has changed since 2020. They’re no longer keeping up with promotions, and they don’t post their flavors on the Yogurtland app/website. My new favorite Yogurtland location is…Eagle Rock. The Yogurtland Eagle Rock had a funky smell for years and that’s finally gone. They’re good about keeping up with promotions and they also remodeled in 2024. And they post their flavors usually.
You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
