Menchie’s Colorado At 8th Avenue

Hey what’s not to like about Menchies!!!
I love this place and when we moved from Cherry creek to the burbs. I was bumbed that we couldn’t swing by and get a froyo as much —
Very clean and has bit of animé theme going on !
Fun to hang out especially in the summer because they have a cute patio —
So whenever I’m in the Cherry Creek area Menchies is a must stop by and pig out on yogurt —
Plus they have these cute spoons and a rewards program so if you buy enough froyo you get a free bee!!!
Who doesn’t like that !
Try it and have fun!

A little short on flavor choices compared to some of the other froyo places I’ve seen, but long on toppings. With a Unilocal deal, the price was great!

Love me some Menchies! Consistently great flavors and toppings.
It’s a «create your own» concoction type of place… you have to be careful otherwise the nutrition and monetary cost can get up there!
I’ve heard a rumor that it may be closing, which I really hope isn’t true!

I am in town from Washington and we visited this Menchies. Why doesn’t the Olympia store have chocolate covered strawberries! It was a nice visit and we would go again if we were in Denver.

I’m really into frozen yogurt. I let myself have it once a week. Menchie’s has pretty tasty stuff. I am most fond of the coconut frozen yogurt and I tend to almost always use the heath bits as a topping.
Everything here is sold by weight, so the cups are all the same size. That leaves it in your hands how much you will splurge, both in money and in calories. I do wish that they would make an effort to recycle their spoons. Maybe even to send them away to a company that recycles plastic to make playground equipment, like tetracycle.
If you haven’t gone here, you should try it out. They are open until 11pm!

The parking lot is a hazard, both to pedestrians and cars alike. Other than that, what’s not to love?
The Boy got a combo of chocolate and dulce de leche yoghurt with a bunch of toppings. I didn’t get any because I am BEING GOOD. I was sorry though, because the taste I wrested from him was delicious!
I love that you can choose 1 or 2 or 5 flavors together. That was a good deal of the fun, thinking about what would go good together.
I also love that many of the toppings are teeny-​tiny. Like, miniature M&Ms, snowdrops, tiny little chocolate covered «turtles», little cubes of cheesecake, etc. It makes it really easy to eat, especially for a young person. And you can taste everything without having the equivalent of a candy bar sized portion on top of your frozen yoghurt.
Good price, cute décor, nice girl behind the counter. I found out that they have one closer to home (the Highlands) so next time The Boy deserves a treat, or needs some cheering up, we’ll go there. It’s not for every day, but it’s for that Special Day, fo’sho.

Love this place. I like the variety of toppings and they swap out the flavors frequently so you never get bored. The staff is oh-​so-​young but surprisingly bright and helpful. They must treat their employees well, because every one I’ve encountered seems really pleasant.
As far as yogurt places go, I think this one is really well priced. And the spoons are dang cute. I often wish they’d put a trash can outside, though. I’ve only seen it out there once. What’s up wit dat?

I really only like one flavor of frozen yogurt, Plain Tart, and I mean I reeaallly like it! So when we stopped in I was relieved to see it was available, as Dale Z. mentioned in his review it’s disappointing when froyo places don’t have this option, it seems it should be a staple. The toppings were plentiful, well stocked, and the counters very clean (surprising as we came near closing time.)
The two young kids working were super friendly and gave us 20% off because of it being my boyfriends birthday, score. (you get a discount for checking in there on Unilocal as well)
My guy really liked the salted caramel, and he is a picky but big fan of that flavor combination.
I really like that they have gluten-​free, vegan, and zero high fructose corn syrup options and the entire line of frozen yogurt is certified Kosher. My one and only complaint, there was not any honey around for topping it off-​maybe next time I’ll be prepared and bust some out of my pocket!

Menchie’s has the cutest spoons! I know Lolia S. of San Francisco (aka FroYo Girl) collects them ;)
If you enjoy the sweeter side of froyo, Menchie’s the place to be. They definitely have more sweet flavors than tart flavors; you can just tell by the setup and how most of the toppings are candy, treats.
Perhaps this is because Menchie’s likes to cater to the sweet tooths of children. If you want to avoid crowds, go around lunchtime or mid-​day, before 3pm. After 3pm, the kids in the area schools get out of school and go to Menchie’s for an after-​school treat. Evenings are generally packed (depending on the night, the outside temperature, etc.). I like to go on off-​hours so parking is a little more reasonable.
My favorite flavors? I usually go for Dulce de Leche or Cake Batter, which tastes like a Creamsicle every time I have it. Today I had the featured flavor, ICSB (Ice Cream Sandwich Bar). Mmm, tastes like the actual bar!
Sample cups are a-​plenty, but when it’s busy, please, folks: give others a chance!
Love their memorabilia and the bright colors of the store (signature to most froyo shops).
I say Menchie’s is TOPS for sweet froyo, although Yogurtland is a pretty good contender…

I had wanted to try Menchies for a while now so when I was in the area last weekend, I stopped in.
What I liked about Menchies is it’s very clean. A lot of these self serve places aren’t. I’m looking at you, Yogurtland. Anyway, Menchie’s is clean and extra points for having the toppings covered. Additionally, their staff is very friendly.
The thing is, the yogurt isn’t that good. Several flavors were overly sweet. It reminded me of the yogurt back in the 80s where they over compensated for fat by dumping a ton of sugar in. And the tart ones I tried had a grainy texture. I ended up getting a small amount of their vanilla and putting some fruit on top.
So yes, 3 stars. While Menchies wasn’t bad, there are much better frozen yogurt options in town.

My family and friends keep dragging me into yogurt places. Yes, I said dragging… sometimes kicking and screaming… I just want ice cream… please.
If you love yogurt… you will like this place… good, unique variety.
If you like yogurt… you will like this place… clean, cool inside.
If you dislike yogurt… you will will put a small amount in a cup and pile a ton of toppings on top and think you are eating a cold candy bar.
Friends said average… so three stars.

I saw the review of a fellow Unilocaler (whose opinion I respect). So, when passing by the other evening, I stopped in. Like most of the places on the part of Colorado, parking is extremely tight.
The Good:
–The young lady working here was very friendly and helpful
–The décor is very cool and modern
–They had my favorite flavor, plain tart (I am irritated when this flavor is not available)
The Bad:
–Some of the flavors were odd and funky. «Cappuccino Butter Pecan»? It was bitter and off-​putting. The «Chocolate Banana» seemed rather boozy. Some of the other flavors just seemed strange. I would put this down to personal taste, but my samples were significantly less enjoyable than I am used to.
–With only one person working on this relatively busy evening, the fruit was not well-​stocked, and the selection seemed a little limited.

Not all frozen yogurt is the same!
The flavors offered are the golden standard in my book: tart, red velvet, cake batter!!!, chocolate, cookies and cream, etc. They also have the fruity ones for the summer: peach, passion fruit.
The toppings are the usual for a frozen yogurt place: cereal, candies, mochi, syrups, fresh fruit.
What I loveeee about Menchies is how creamy their frozen yogurt is! It can’t be beat! If you love Yogurtland then you’ll love how Menchies tastes since it’s almost exactly the same set up, including the spoons!
This has become a weekly staple in my household!

So stoked to see Menchie’s in Colorado!
I first tried them out hen I lived in Charlotte and quickly got spoiled because I was within walking distance to the store. So I would go almost every day, get a sweet treat and be on my merry way. Then I moved from Charlotte and Menchie –fest was no more.
Fast forward seven months while driving down Colorado Blvd in frickin Denver and bam, a Menchie’s sign! After having an intense fro yo craving, I finally stopped here the other night and it’s just as good as I remember. Their Irish Mint should be illegal because it is THAT good. They have toppings aplenty and nice employees however the issues I’ve had with Menchie’s were present at this location-​absolute chaos with the flow of getting your fro yo and toppings and lack of parking. There were too many kids running amuck however I dig that they have a spacious outdoor seating area.

Let’s be honest. I like fro yo and Menchies.
$ 3 for a heaping serving of deliciousness.
Only downfall is parking at this location.

If I had checked in here every time I stopped in for sorbet in the past two weeks, my friends would be gearing up for an intervention. But if I’m going to be addicted to something, I suppose non-​dairy, sugar free sorbet and fresh berries isn’t too bad!
The staff is always beyond outgoing and friendly, the toppings are always plentiful, the flavors are always delicious (Valencia Orange sorbet!) and the parking lot is always a nightmare.

We love this place. I really like the set up and the flavors are delicious. I like that they have non-​dairy options as well. Most of the staff have been super friendly (note to management — there is one young woman who works there who is not friendly or helpful but every other staff member has been).
The kids love the self serve option and I think the price is comparable to other self serve frozen yogurt places in the area. I noticed last time we were there that you can get $ 1 off if you check in via facebook or Unilocal.I’ll have to do that next time!
Glad they are in the neighborhood.

Being the froyo freak that I am, I was pretty excited to try out this store, which just opened up within the last few months or so. Yogurtland has been my favorite for quite some time, but Menchies is closing in on them quickly.
I like the set up of the store, you work in a circle rather than having to fight your way to the back of the store to pick your flavors. It’s a better use of space.
Their flavors are great. I had never seen a mint flavor anywhere before coming here. I tried it and I LOVE it. Now I’m just going to have to argue with myself whether I want mint or red velvet (they’re quite odd together). Their toppings are also pretty good. They had some fat free brownies that were quite decadent and chewy.
They also have a customer loyalty card — aka the «Smileage» card. After spending $ 50, you get $ 5 to spend there.
Love this place! Now I need to make a froyo run! ;)

Just awesome.
Super friendly staff, awesome selection, and CLEAN. Not only do they have tons of toppings to pick from but they are all in individual containers — not «salad bar» style where god knows who touches them or what happens when people aren’t looking. I have been to other locations around town — this is definitely my new favorite.
The prices are reasonable and comparable to any of the other places in the city.
HIGHLY recommend!

This location of Menchie’s opened a week or so ago. I’m normally not a fan of self-​serve fro-​yo, but this was delicious, and a good deal. They had a lot of interesting flavors but I went with the classic chocolate/​vanilla swirl. It was nice and creamy and not overly sweet. They had a good selection of toppings. It was also pretty inexpensive, which is always a perk. They also have a nice frequent customer program.
Service was friendly, and the guy we talked to embraced the «smiley» theme to a frightening level, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Perkiness goes well with ice cream in the middle of the work day.
I’m pretty excited about cheap frozen yogurt less than five minutes from my office!
