Such a great selection of flavors and so many toppings to choose from. The employee even offer samples. Cute & clean little frozen yogurt shoppe. read more

Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

It's been soooo long since I've had froyo! As I was scouring the internet for national frozen yogurt day deals I came across orange leaf and it seemed promising. Walking in was pure nostalgia, taking me back to my middle school days in the 20teens when froyo was all the rave. Personally I think the vanilla based flavors are the best so I went with birthday cake and cheesecake. They have a wide variety of toppings to throw on top of your yogurt like cheesecake bites, brownies, sprinkles, m&ms, fruits, and so much more. The whole concept of fro-yo is self serve so you can choose as many or as little toppings and yogurt you would like. The only thing that was a little annoying was there were no sample cups to try the flavors. It was a little annoying having to go ask for it especially when they only give you one cup to try different flavors. I definitely preferred my experience at orange leaf compared to menchies. I can see myself coming back for my annual fro-yo fix lol! P.S. they have no weigh Wednesdays now during the winter! read more

Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

I love Dole Whip. This is the nearest location that offers Dole Whip non-dairy sherbet. This last visit, the only employee was a young guy who was friendly enough, but didn't say much. Totally ok. It wasn't exactly clean, but there was a whole soccer team outside sitting so I am going to chalk it up to those customers and hope it's not the norm. With that said: it's overpriced. I hate buy by weight soft service ice cream/froyo places. All of them. It's the worst. But I will keep going because Dole Whip. Sigh. read more

quick and easy! super fun flavors. would recommend anytime if you're craving a sweet treat

I had a great experience at Orange Leaf tonight. The yogurt was delicious with so many flavors it was hard for me to choose. What really made my visit special was one of the employees. A teen with brown curly hair helped me decide what flavor I should get because I didn't know. She was very patient and kind, her help made my day. I will definitely be coming back to this location. read more

This is my least favorite froyo I've had in a long time. We sampled some of the flavors that were unique, like pumpkin and pistachio. It's awful. Just tastes super artificial. I ended up just getting some chocolate. I saw someone say something about the staff. I remember my high school job and it's not like I expect some teenager to be thrilled to be working a Saturday night, but holy moly, these girls looked miserable. I didn't even see them when walking in. And then when they did end up weighing out my cup and ringing me up, it had a little automated tip button. I'm sorry, but are we tipping people for doing nothing at all? You serve yourself from the actual yogurt to the toppings lol. Also, there should be an option for a cone. This place is just very blah. I wish they had TCBY around here :( Pro tip: My gf got vanilla and some sour patch kids. Don't do this. It hardens, is super hard to chew, and ends up cutting up your mouth. read more

I love me a frozen treat, but this was not it. No good flavor choices, fro-yo came out thin and soupy, very overpriced and unfriendly staff. They need to put some "sweet" in their treats! read more

I went to the upper arlington location and had a great experience with michelle the supervisor there. She was so nice and so helpful and made my day. Also, The food was amazing and tasted delicious. Definitely recommend coming there! read more

I really really really enjoyed this. The location was easy to find and there was a good parking. The people that work there were very helpful and friendly. They were teens and look like they enjoyed working there. The place was clean and there was adequate seating people look to be enjoying themselves. They have a large selection of different types of frozen yogurt's. They have more than the Menchie's location that I had been to. I ended up getting cheesecake and wedding cake flavors. I love that the cups are different sizes to prevent you from overfilling and there are dividers in case you want multiple flavors. I ended up just getting strawberries on top which were pretty sour but oh well. My girlfriend also got strawberries and hers went sour and she said I just "had to know how to pick them". Amy, my girlfriend, and my sister got small cups and it came out to about $19. I don't know about you but that is very pricey! I'll probably have to come when I'm all alone LOL. read more

I've been to way better Froyo before, this place didn't have the great choices. & toppings were subpar, sauces were just in bottles. Paid $18 for two people, I should have gone to DQ. Not to mention we walked in and the workers were lounging on the couches on their phones up until we needed to weigh and pay. They looked at me like I was crazy asking if I could sample stuff, and then just pointed at the spoons for me... lots of sass and could tell they did not want to be there..... I will not be back. read more

Really good frozen yogurt, extremely clean environment especially at the toppings section. The only thing I wish they had was more yogurt flavors. But I do love the selection of dairy free options!! read more

OUR FAVORITE FROYO PLACE ... Our kids love Orange Leaf. We love Orange Leaf. Doesn't everyone...? Great frozen yogurt. Good toppings. It ain't cheap, but you control how much you spend. All in all, really good. read more

I've been to Pink Berry in Colorado. It seems people rant and rave about that place, and the toppings, and the service, and the INCREDIBLE WAIT to get it. It was good. Delicious. Cold. Creamy. Tangy. Lychee. Mochi. Yum. Orange Leaf? Like PinkBerry. Only self-serve. Evil, evil Orange Leaf. Charging by the ounce. With delicious fruit toppings. And mochi. And candy, too. A wide selection of yogurt. Delicious. So you can be kind of healthy with the fruit, or indulge with chocolate and candy. It's awesome. I'm writing this purely to rub it in my brother's face in Colorado (and his wife). We don't have PinkBerry here. WE HAVE SOMETHING BETTER :-P read more

i hadn't had fro yo in so long but this stuff was amazing!! there are so many different flavors and toppings. it's also relatively cheap. some of my friends even went back for seconds. read more

Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt - frozen yogurt Cookies and Cream Coffee Mango - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

Nice location in Kingsdale Center, with both indoor and outdoor seating, and plenty of parking available in the shopping center lot. Like most of the frozen yogurt places that sprang up (although this seems to be one of the few that survived when that market became over saturated), it's serve yourself with a giant bowl. There are two sizes available so you can at least get a slightly smaller one, and they also offer dividers that fit inside, so you can make several mini tastes with different froyo and toppings, if you'd like. Froyo flavors rotate, and you can ask for sample cups to try out new ones. There's a nice variety of toppings, including candies, fruit, cereal, and more. It has a slick atmosphere, the funky orange chairs and spoons add some character, and the staff was friendly. Good froyo option. read more

We'd been to other locations, and Sweetie wanted frozen yogurt (hey, it's her birthday) so we swung over to this one since it was closest. It has the usual selection of flavors and toppings. To me, the toppings are really the draw; the yogurt is okay but not amazing. The place was kinda dirty, but since it looks like there's only one or two employees there and a lot of kids coming in I see how maybe they can't keep up. To me, it's not really worth coming this far for something that's not amazing, so we'll see what other places we can find for our (rare) froyo runs. Plus, right now the whole area around the mall is torn up for various street projects and, apparently, mall renovations. So, take your time and be careful. The lot is constricted and busy. read more

My first Fro-yo experience since TCBY was in business in the 80s and early 90s. I think the guy thought I knew what I was doing, so I had to stand looking a little lost and actually had to start asking questions to be greeted. The fro-yo was diversified, though I was limited to only sampling 2. That kind of sucked since I'd never been there before and maybe I am spoiled by Jeni's samplings. I tried to keep it pretty small, and tried to stick to light toppings, but still ended up spending $5. It was ok. The spoons' shape is cool. More like a mini shovel. read more

I love their froyo and the toppings. I moved, and now live 2 hours away but I always go back and I love it.

Orange Leaf is a very clean and fairly upscale place to grab frozen yogurt with quite a few different options. I didn't count exactly, but I would say this location had 12-16 different flavors and good variety (chocolate, plain, cookies and cream, some fruity, etc.) They also have a lot of toppings including candy, cookies, brownie pieces, marshmallows, chocolate and other chips, chopped nuts, fruits, syrups, and more. The quality of the yogurt seemed pretty good. I tried three kinds (their dividers for the cups are awesome btw). The peanut butter was amazing, the cookies and cream was good, and the wedding cake was mediocre and way too sweet. I added some appropriate toppings/mix-ins for each one and overall enjoyed the yogurt quite a bit. My one complaint is the price- at $.50 an ounce, you're looking at prices comparable to Jeni's ice cream for a modest 6-10 oz cup of yogurt that isn't exactly Jeni's quality. All in all this is a nice, very clean location with a good array of flavors and decent tasting yogurt. read more

I've gone to orange leaf multiple times mainly because the next closest yogurt shop is in Dublin. This place could not be stingier, they don't allow you to get your own samples they have to pour them for you. The attendants always ask you to "select a tip option" on the card reader which is ridiculous, and tacky. The flavor selections are okay, the toppings could be better as well. Just really disappointed, won't be returning read more

worker was in the back until we were about to pay, the couches were disgusting. frozen yogurt was so good though.

I've been here twice now-- and I'm glad I waited to post my review. The thing about Orange Leaf is... you'll probably think about going there a lot between visits. I found myself CRAVING this stuff even though I'm not much of a desserty person. It really is a fun environment, like FroYo in Candyland or Willy Wonka's factory. You can pull the levers on the wall for a self-serve-soft-serve experience. Pull the middle lever between two combos and you get a twist. Don't feel bad about getting the plain tangy yogurt, because you can jazz it up with all the incredible toppings available (boba! fresh fruit! crushed fruit! candy! baked goods! nuts! your mom!). I feel like if I get a flavored flavor, I'm much more limited in my toppings. Decide if you're in a flavor mood or a topping mood, I guess. The decor is great. I loved all the tiny glass tile, flatscreens, etc. Also the chairs and tables make me think of kindergarten snack time, but in a good way. This place is full of whimsey and fun. There's also a loyalty program and facebook bonuses. Check it out, if you're into that sort of thing. Every time I've been in though, it's been empty! I can't figure out why, except that maybe normal people don't get frozen yogurt fun time at 1:30 pm on a weekday. So, hop to! I don't want this place to close. read more

What is this magical place? I walk in and see various levers and crumbled cookies and an employee that tells me I should smack myself for not coming here before now. As it turns out, this froyo shoppe is entirely DIY and this really appeals to my rugged individualism. There are about 8 varieties of self-serve frozen yogurt that beckon to be tasted. The aforementioned kind hearted employee allowed us a taste test of any variety we choose. A couple of them didn't suit me. I settle on peanut butter, brownie, and coffee flavors. Moving on down the line, I dump various toppings on to my pile of froyo. Crushed Butterfingers and peanut M&Ms are the one I remember, but there were others. Now it is time to pay for this glorious monstrosity. I wonder to myself: what manner of payment system do they offer here? A wild scale approaches! I plop my creation down on the weight measurement device and it comes to about 3 bucks. 3 bucks for this bowl of cold yogurt and various sweets seems like a steal. I feel like I won this game. I dig in to the frozen goodness. I created you, I can destroy you! The circle of life is complete. The froyo is in my belly. I will be back. read more

Oh my yes!!!! YES!! YESSSSS!!!! Who knew you could make sooooo many frozen yogurts!! Far too many to choose from... I chose the Snickerdoodle and the Confetti Cake - which tastes like cake batter. Does it get any better than that?? I think not! I think there is something like 16 different ones to choose from - impossible to try them all before they change out the flavors.... OR IS IT???? read more

This review of Orange Leaf is for service and experience, only. Orange Leaf's service model perfectly fits our ubiquitously "do it yourself" society. You walk in, choose a type of frozen yogurt, add toppings, then pay, hang out, eat, and go on your merry way. Truly, this is frozen yogurt for a fast paced culture-- throw in some light weight tables and you're in a franchise. Even if the frozen yogurt does taste good, one trouble Orange Leaf may run into is maintaining a "warm" customer experience. Without a friendly experience, frozen yogurt may start to loose its cool. During my first experience at Orange Leaf, my girlfriend and I weren't greeted, nor were we invited to partake in frozen yogurt when we entered the place-- the single staff member didn't say anything to us, in fact, she just sort of stared. Needless to say, it was a long, chilly walk from the front door to the frozen yogurt machines, where we served ourselves, then added some toppings in a lingering silence. When I went to pay for the frozen yogurt, I asked about the "Angry Birds" visual that was cued up on the flatscreen TV. I was wondering if it was a touch-screen for the Angry Birds game, because I hadn't heard of a movie for it. Perhaps this was a dumb question because the girl at the register flatly said-- "It's a movie." Then she took my credit card, handed me the receipt, and nothing more. My girlfriend and I quietly ate, and whispered to each other through the silence. We quickly left, opening the front door to a more welcoming winter chill... read more

It seems fitting that for my 100th review of 2012 it comes back to where it began- Orange Leaf. Since my first bite at the Orange Leaf in Pickerington at the beginning of this year I was completely hooked. I made no qualms about it. I embraced it. And in the spirit of supporting local business I even tried branching out- to taste any/all fro-yo places I saw lurking around town, to compare the quality of the fro-yo. (strokes the orange and white paper bucket lovingly, and stares into those big round letters on the side) But you, my yogurt love, have never strayed. You have always remained true. Even when I fooled around with Bad Frogs, Cuzzins, and Matcha(?) in hopes that their toppings were better- you quietly waited for me to come back. And finally, 2 days ago, I did. (sniffle) AND YOU HAD MY COOKIE DOUGH WAITING (SOB) for meeeeee. I swear it was the only reason I left. (sniffle) If I only would have known! I wouldn't have to explain away the extra 15 lbs of bad yogurt on my thighs! (cough, sputter) But how could I know!? (whines and dissolves into a blubbery mess) (wipes tears from eyes and looks up) I vow, as long as you keep the cookie dough, I will not stray again! You are the best tasting frozen yogurt of all time! read more

Holy froyo, batman. I cannot get over the cute tiny chairs and tables that align the front window! Coming in lieu of the holiday season, guess what was available? Gingerbread! Although it lacked a little flavor, it was still delicious when paired with the Coffee & Vanilla. My own personal froyo Gingerbread Latte. ;P Complete with wafflecone crunchies and other unhealthy toppings, I was in froyo heaven. But then again, everytime I go to a froyo place I'm in heaven. The one downside? No cheesecake bites. However, the employee said it's because they melt too fast, booo! Be sure to get their rewards card, a point for every dollar, and after 10 points, you get $1 added to it! Score! Also, don't make the same mistake I did, they have TWO sizes of cups. Let's not go into sugar shock by thinking you have to fill up the larger one to satisfy that sweet tooth. Your tummy will be hating you. read more

It's a typical frozen yogurt shop. It's nothing really special. Since you pay by the weight of the cup, it can be very expensive. I think I'd rather go to any other ice cream shop nearby. I think this place is too mediocre and expensive. Caffee Davinci is nearby and they have great gelato. There's also a Greater's on Lane Ave which is not too far away. read more

They consistently close early and go against their actual posted store hours. I have been kicked out of the store at 8:35 pm because they "decided to close early today". I love the froyo however, they could treat their customers with a little respect. read more

I'm from Southern California, so I always compare froyo to the traditional, Yogurtland, tart-style yogurt as opposed to something like the sweet, creamier Golden Spoon (uh... do they have those here?). This place is just all right. The boy and I had the basic tart with a couple of the fruit flavored yogurts, sans toppings, and I thought the fruit ones in particular tasted a little powdery. This is also pricier at 45c / oz than many of the other offerings in Columbus. Still, I will probably return for no other reason than the fact that I live within walking distance and can justify a sweet treat because I have to walk to get it. They also get points for providing spoons made of biodegradable plastic. read more

Thanks to a recent Yelp event, I've had a craving for frozen yogurt pretty much nonstop. I coerced bf to stop by Orange Leaf after dinner to calm the voices in my head. Yes, I sound crazy. This is your run of the mill FroYo spot, with about a dozen or so flavors and some candy/cakey/fruity/saucy things to mix in with it. The sample cups are clutch, as it's kinda hard to imagine what certain flavors are going to taste like. I went with the Wedding Cake and Cookies & Cream, adding strawberries, graham cracker crumbs, vanilla wafers and maybe a few other things I'm forgetting. It was pretty tasty (but not the best FroYo I've ever tried). After seeing some pics on Yelp, I wish I would have known they had dividers for the bowls so you can try different combinations more easily. I'll probably look for those next time. WORD OF CAUTION! The bowls they give you to fill are HUGE. Like, the size of a container of ice cream you'd buy from the grocery. This is priced by weight so the big container fools you into filling it more. Trust me, you're gonna have enough. Bf's & mine came out to maybe $11 for 2 bowls. I'm thinking we probably over ordered... read more

Orange Leaf 1. JonRoss 0. Usually, I am a good dog. Very, VERY rarely do I lose a fight to a food establishment. And although I wholeheartedly lost to Orange Leaf, I did it to myself due to its self-service design. I really did not know what I was doing. I picked up the smaller of the two cups, the 16 oz. I filled 3/4 of the cup with white chocolate and regular chocolate yogurt alone. (BTW, the white chocolate frozen yogurt is EXCELLENT. It's not like the usual more-sugary-version-of-chocolate you're used to with white chocolate. It's light and creamy and delicious). Then I put lots of toppings on. I went way overboard: snickers, peanut M&Ms (way too many, and for future reference, peanut M&Ms in a frozen treat make biting into them almost painful for teeth), almonds, brownie, chocolate chips, chocolate kisses, etc. I was just so overwhelmed by the choices. They have a HUGE amount of toppings, and it's all pay by the ounce. When all was said and done, I looked at my concoction, and I said, "there is no way I am going to finish this." It was huge. I couldn't even believe they sold bigger cups than this. I said to the woman behind the counter, "you've seen worse, right?" She assured me she has. I was slightly confused because I thought I heard it was 25¢ per ounce, but with my 18 ounces (yes, 18 ounces, my lord), it cost nearly $8. Maybe I heard wrong... Either way, the concoction tasted GREAT (with the exception of the peanut M&Ms, not doing that again). The chocolate mixed with the white chocolate was decadent. The brownie and the almonds were EXCELLENT touches. As I left, I asked for a "To go dome" for my cup. When I got home I put it in the freezer. I am excited to finish it and to come back, but next time I need a game plan: - WATCH HOW MUCH I GET! Do not fill any more than 1/2 of my cup with yogurt! - In my overwhelming pile-on fest of toppings, I neglected to notice the sauces I could have added. Caramel would have really done the trick. - Choose only 3-5 toppings, or don't use any more than a couple pieces per topping. Next time, I'll do almonds, brownie, chocolate chips, and caramel. But the white chocolate and chocolate mix is definitely the way to go on the yogurt side. I know for a fact next time I will conquer Orange Leaf because I will know what I am doing. Maybe I'll even experiment with different flavors of fro-yo (pineapple and strawberry looked good). This place is really, really, really good. But know what you are getting yourself into. Worst case scenario? You overdo it and you'll get to take your delicious treat home! read more

My first time and Orange Leaf and I was very impressed. There were around 16 different flavors of frozen yogurt and it was DELICIOUS! The employees were friendly and didn't stand around. They were continually making sure everything was clean and fully stocked. A very pleasant experience! I'll certainly be back! read more

It appears that Columbus is finally jumping on the trendy frozen yogurt bandwagon. Yagoot opened at Easton along with a Red Mango near campus. Orange Leaf is a more fun (and tastier) experience than Pink Berry and Red Mango in my opinion. First of all, this place is a self serve frozen yogurt place, so you have more freedom to get all crazy with your base flavors and toppings. The service was superb. They explained the process of building your own dessert and offered free taste samples of the yogurt flavors. First you must pick between a 16 oz or 24 oz cup. The 16 oz was plenty huge for me. There are 16 different yogurt flavors to choose from. They pair the flavors together so that swirling the two (in the soft serve-like machines) is an option. I chose to swirl green tea and cherry. Next was the toppings bar! They had a great selection of fruit, chocolate, candy, and some odd things like flavored boba. I put some crushed cherry topping, peanut butter chips, and mango bobas on mine. I thought the bobas would basically be similar in texture to the giant tapioca balls you find in bubble teas, but they were actually more like fruity sushi roe, in that there was a thin membrane and then the ball would burst in your mouth with liquid fruitiness. Quite unexpected, but good! The yogurt was goood and refreshing. They charge by weight at something like 45 cents an ounce. The utensils are orange long handled spades similar to the ones you use to eat gelato. The decor was all orange-ified with cute mod furniture. Overall it was a fun experience! Can't wait to try more flavor combos. read more

This satiates my froyo appetite for now. I always get the plain tart and then usually a tart fruity yogurt. But I was excited to see GREEN TEA here!! Then after i tasted it...I was quite disappointed. I didn't taste any green tea at all, and even the color was still white like the tart. :( The lychee and pineapple were good though, but yea, i could taste the "powderyness" too. Whenever a self-serve frozen yogurt place opens up, i get my hopes up, only to get let down let down. These franchises should head to SoCal for the weekend to do some delicious research and espionage. Keep practicing Columbus? read more

So I am not a huge Froyo fan ( I also hate that term but I use it for ease). I went to one of these DIYs in Dublin and wasn't a big fan but decided to stop in here on Leap Day since it was unseasonably warm. I loved it as it made my day. I was shocked and pleasantly surprised. I chose Chocolate & Coffee mixed with Granola and a little Heath Bar. I topped it with a squeeze of Choc. Syrup. This was so delightful without the tartness that some Froyo places seem to put in their mix. It was smooth and creamy. My only issue with this place is that they do not have their pricing in easy to read spots. I have no idea how much per pound my concoction cost. I like to see the price and be able to figure out how much i want to pay. I would like to see a scale around the machines so I can weigh mine and decide if I want more or not. I like the orange spoons as they assist with the creamy & smooth taste. I plan on coming back to this place as it was better than Menchies and on par with Yagoot. read more

Orange Leaf is deicious!! Ice cream is probably my all time favorite desert BY FAR and right up there in my top ten foods in general. But when im looking to be a tad healthier, the frozen yogurt at Orange Leaf is right up there with the best ice creams ive ever had. I wont go in depth with all of the flavors bc they are constantly changing and there are so many, but i will say that ive never been even remotely upset with one! And the variety/quality of toppings and sauce options are top notch. Nothing bad to say about Orange Leaf on my part, in fact im on my way there right now!! :-P read more

My word I absolutely love this place and froyo in general. Everytime I manage to make my way over for a visit they have new delicious flavors ready for enjoyment. Recently I've had the pleasure of enjoying a cookies and cream flavor, a brownie batter flavor, and a wonderful series of fruit oriented flavors (orange was particularly good). The toppings selection is also wide in its variety. In fact I believe the last time I was there they even had Girl Scout cookies as an option (tagalongs mmm..). The environment fits in with the Orange Leaf model with the bright colors and open floor plan. I've never had a problem finding some where to sit and enjoy. I will definitely repeat visit this place any time I feel like I deserve a delightful frozen treat. read more

"A-OK" seems to be the best way to describe this place, but the 3 star rating seems a bit lower than I would like, given overall ratings for most establishments. BF and I explored the greater Kingsdale region of Upper Arlington yesterday, including the new GE Market District (review to come), and we capped our journey with some tasty froyo. I am thrilled that the self-serve frozen yogurt concept has made it into Columbus... and by made it, I mean exploded -- Red Mango, Cuzzins, Yagoot, Menchies... and all I think the the last year or so. This is the newest. I had the tart (my standby) with strawberries and mochi. Berries were big and fresh, mochi was about on par with all mochi (except for the weird-tasting mochi at Red Mango). The yogurt was tarter than that at Cuzzins, and had a bit of a strange flavor by itself. I probably wouldn't buy it sans toppings, like I would at Cuzzins. BF got pomegranate and white chocolate yogurts, with white chocolate chips and raspberries and these things called passion-fruit exploding boba. The PFEB were AWESOME. They are exactly what they sound like... and they taste totally yum. BF very much enjoyed his concoction. I'd say there are maybe 14? 16? different flavors available at any given time, with swirls, and about a million toppings. The topping varieties, selection-wise, top the other places I've been in Cbus, and those PFEB could inspire a trip here. Unlike at some other places, there aren't little sample tester cups for tasting -- had there been, perhaps I would have indulged in some vile-sounding "Wedding Cake" yogurt, just to discuss its vileness. The nice cashier did offer to give us samples. The ambiance is basically the same as all Froyo places -- plastic chairs, bright colors, sort of nuevo-Asiana. Yogurt is ~45c an ounce, we spent 7.25 between the two of us. read more
