The best froyo ever!! I love it here and come here a few times a week. Their froyo and toppings are amazing. They have great service too!
I'll be back!!
Yogurt was pretty good- nothing amazing. Ample seating. Ok service.
Not sure if other stores started to do this, but if you would like to sample the flavors, you have to ask the worker and have her get it for you. Then, tell her what else you want to try. Though I understand it may be to prevent waste or prevent people from sampling too much, the experience was just really awkward. The raspberry machine wasn't working, and it seemed like the workers didn't know how to fix it.
The toppings were also more candy-based. I usually prefer fruit and mochi, but unfortunately the fruit didn't look too fresh and they didn't offer mochi at all.
BLUF: Your average froyo place with a bit higher prices than normal but there's not too many alternative options nearby to opt to.
There is quite a variety of frozen yogurt flavors to choose from including low calorie options. Also, there is a lot of topping to choose from but it seems heavily chocolate/candy based rather than fruit and mochi which is what I usually like on my yogurt.
On an interesting note, the tasting process is something different. In order to get a sample, you need to have an employee dispense it into sampling cups rather than them handing cups out to you. Not sure if it is a franchise policy or it is just this branch since this is the only 16 Handles I've been to, but was a little strange having an employee follow me around to taste flavors.
Overall, good froyo but nothing to bookmark in particular.
We used to go to the 16 Handles on 3rd Ave. all the time, so we were pretty psyched to see one open in White Plains. The atmosphere here is very pleasant, there's a reasonable amount of seating, and the branch is immaculate.
As for the frozen yogurt, the quality is as great as I remember and there are heaps of flavors to choose from. They even have a few low cal offerings. Also, the assortment of toppings is pretty decadent, but remember that they really do add up weight wise and you are paying by the ounce.
I don't think there are all that many self serve froyo places in the immediate area, so I hope that 16 Handles can survive here. This part of Mamaroneck Ave up doesn't get all that much foot traffic even in the warmer months so it'll be interesting to see if they can survive the coming fall/winter.
