Nice concept. DIY Froyo. What stood out was the creative flavours . I tried the coffee cold brew which was not overly sweet and cake batter which was. My 3 year old niece loved it. read more

We're coming through town and I saw the frozen yogurt place so I thought I'd stop in and gone are the days where you get a cup of yogurt for a set price everything is by the ounce and they charge you by the ounce for the cup also. So I got a very smallcup with three little flavors and it was read more

Hubby and I decided to stop in for dessert. We both decided to get the Hawaiian Delight Sorbet(Non-Fat & Dairy Free) with Mango Popping Boba, Strawberries & Toasted Coconut. We loved this sorbet so much that we came back 2 additional times just to order it again! 5/5 stars for this incredible combination and I love how they use biodegradable wooden spoons! I would HIGHLY recommend this small business that opened in December of 2015 by a husband and wife team! Throughout the shop you'll notice some fun and funky artwork by various artists, including a beautiful painted rainbow window! Summit Swirl has 8 rotating flavors of froyo, sorbet and gelato, so there's something for everyone! Best of all it's self-serve and the employees are so nice! We're looking forward to returning to try more of their rotating flavors! SYOY! :D Song: A Sailor's Hawaii by Philip E Morris read more

The workers are pretty nice and every flavor or frozen yogurt I tried has been very good. Don't get too much because the flavors are heavy.

Really quality froyo! They have non dairy options that aren't just sorbet, which can be hard to find. It is pricey, but the prices are probably reflective of the area. read more

Summit Swirl is such a fun place! Their frozen yogurt is delicious and comes with a fantastic variety of unique toppings, like popping boba and chocolate chips. I love the sample cups--they're a great way to try different flavors, which isn't something you find everywhere. The staff is always friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Plus, the local and cute ambiance makes it a perfect spot for a treat. Overall, it's a charming place to enjoy tasty fro-yo and hang out with friends! read more

During our anniversary getaway, my wife and I found this frozen yogurt place located in Truckee Crossroads shopping center in Truckee, CA. This frozen yogurt place is self serve and the price is based on the weight of the total amount of frozen treat with toppings which is 74 cents per ounce. The staff member was courteous and ambiance was cozy and casual. I liked the fact that it had nonfat sorbet since I'm lactose intolerant and this frozen yogurt place had my ideal dessert. I got the Hawaiian Delight with popping boba. I loved it and we will come back whenever we are in the area. read more

I love frozen yogurt and our first time at summit swirl after talking about going for over a year was totally worth the wait! The flavors were delicious, specifically the horchata! YUM. They have a top notch toppings bar with everything you could want/expect. The young gal working was friendly and kept the place impeccably clean, including that toppings bar (which can get messy QUICK)! Kudos to her. All in all excellent! read more

Best yogurt spot in the North! Great customer service, tasty options and clean environment! read more

Summit Swirl - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Truckee, California

Love this place come every year they give the puppies some yogurt and love it BEST IN TOWN

My daughter and I come in every few weeks to share a medium cup of fro-yo. We usually spend about $7-$8 with tip. We only get sprinkles as a topping so that price really is just the weight of the fro-yo which I think is pretty fair. I like that there are rotating flavors and dairy free, low fat and fat free options. The POG flavor is so tart and sour, but I like it! It's usually pretty quiet inside and there are quite a few benches outside. read more

I love this place and come at least once every time I'm in Truckee, even in the middle of winter. They do a great job rotating flavors and always have a good mix of sweet ice-cream-like types (Vanilla, Cake Batter) and fruit flavors (Pineapple, POG, Blueberry). Great set of toppings, including my favorites (mochi, popping boba, white chocolate chips) and fresh fruit. It's maybe not the cheapest but that's also my fault for every time getting a large and packing it to the brim. read more

I come here often and have never made the time to review. I love this place. when it first opened I was wonderfully surprised at how fresh the fruit it is and it's stayed that way since. It's always so clean and the staff are always so kind. Even during the winter I love to get a cup of Italian tart and sit on the benches when it's nice and sunny. read more

Dropped in for the first time tonight (a Friday). The place is very clean and service is friendly. The best part is the selection of yogurt. Tom(?) the owner curates and even mixes some of the flavors himself. There's a lot of unique flavors like Horchata, coconut milk chocolate etc. For toppings I had the granola which was fresh and still crunchy. We all want to come back tomorrow! Eat here! read more

4.5 stars! Summit Swirl has some surprisingly good, creamy frozen yogurt and some really creative flavors--their peanut butter and dark chocolate were my favorites on my recent visit, and I also got the tart to round it all out! There were plenty of other interesting options, however, including pink lemonade, key lime, and coconut milk! The toppings bar is also plentiful, with a wide selection of fruit, nuts, and candies--definitely worth a visit on a hot day for a cool dessert! read more

North of the spectacular Lake Tahoe in the swell little city of Truckee lies a nice little frozen yogurt spot by the name of Summit Swirl which offers a wonderful cold and sweet treat for a hot summer's day. I came here on a Sunday afternoon with five friends to enjoy a cold dessert in the scorching summer heat. There is a variety of frozen yogurt flavors here including key lime, banana, and peanut butter. They are all either low-fat or non-fat to make for a healthy treat. There is also a wide variety of toppings that one can add ranging from mochi to sour candies to olive oil. After filling up a cup, it is weighed for a cost of $0.61 an ounce. I decided to get a cup of their key lime, lemonade, and vanilla bean. The lemonade flavor is a bit different from the other two in that it had sort of a sherbert like texture. It was a bit icier for a very refreshing feel. The key lime and vanilla bean flavors were more creamy and had the taste of greek yogurt in them. They were flavorful and sweet while not being overwhelmingly sweet. I enjoyed the frozen yogurt with sour candies, mochi, and mango popping boba to add variety to the dessert. read more

Good spot to grab some frozen yogurt after a day of hiking or outdoor sports. Good selection of add-ins. Staff was friendly. Varied flavor selection. read more

Self-serve and sold by weight (yogurt and toppings weighted together). 8 different flavors and non-dairy option available. Lots of toppings including fresh fruit. Lots of benches outside to enjoy your yogurt. Friendly staff. Steady stream of customers at 3:30pm on a Thursday. Enjoyed the treat, 4 stars because the yogurt is nice and cold, but not as creamy as others we've had. Would definitely return when in the area. COVID-19 info: - Mandatory glove usage to serve yogurt and toppings. - Mask required - no eating inside read more

This is the best ice cream/yogurt in town! We stopped in many times while in town. Katie who works there was gracious and made the whole experience hospitable. Later in the week we met Tom the owner. It is easy to see why this place thrives. Tom is passionate about his business. It was great meeting him! The shop is located on the opposite side of Village Pizzeria. If your desire is a great refreshing treat and a small town feeling, definitely give Summit Swirl a whirl! read more

Decent frozen yogurt place located in North Lake Tahoe. My friends and I decided to swing by here on a hot August day for a refreshing bite to eat. Summit Swirl has a good selection (about 10) of frozen yogurts and toppings so you can customize your own froyo bowl on what you feel like eating that day. For me, I'm not a huge frozen yogurt fan, so I ended up getting a pink lemonade frozen sorbet, topped with mango boba. The pink lemonade was quite refreshing and sweet, perfect for a hot day. The mango boba added a fun texture to go along with the sorbet. At $0.61 per ounce, it's pretty expensive compared to other frozen yogurt places in urban cities. read more

Great froyo at a great price for Truckee! And they had demo snowboards from Elevated!

This guy has the best frozen yogurt in Tahoe. We drive to Truckee just for it. Fresh toppings he maintains his machines well and it's always fresh and perfectly cold not meltingly soft right away read more

Yessss! Finally a place right in town to satisfy my FroYo craving. I overheard some people at the wine bar downtown Truckee mention this place is open til 10pm, so my friends cruised on over and low and behold listening in to others' conversation paid off. They have perfect plain tart yogurt, as well as other flavors and even a DAIRY FREE cultured almond yogurt that was delish. Duh we smothered our bowls in random assortment of toppings from fresh fruit to Oreo pieces and of course, sprinkles. We went back a second time when there were a million people in town for Christmas and even though it was snowing & cold outside, Sierra swirl was warm inside so it wasn't weird to enjoy yogurt in wintertime. read more

The cookie butte is amazing! Good fruit, and super genuine owner. My new go to when passing through.

This place doesn't make me toot! Coming from San Jose, there are many places like this but none dare I say compare! Flavors: Regular tarte~ amazing! I don't even like plain tart but this is good! Almond~ also good Pistachio ~My Favorite! Just the right sweetness and so smooth! I think these are water based, that's why it doesn't make me leave chocolate trails or should I say stinky smells ;) The gal that helped us was very helpful and friendly. I will be back tomorrow before I go back to san jose. So sad that I'll have to wait till I come back :( read more

Despite being the only froyo place in the area, Summit Swirl strives to be at the top of their game. Sure, no competition may let other places slide but not here! Unique flavors and old standbys are always available.... as well as at least one dairy free option always ready! My personal fave is the cashew milk chai! Mmmmmmm. A 10-20 foot counter of toppings to compliment your cup of yum is at your fingertips with great freshly cut fruit always available. Local teens/college students who are cheerful and helpful man the shop in the evening and the owners who are just as pleasant run the shop during the day. This is a great stop to satisfy your froyo urges. So, when in Truckee, go a bit west of downtown and find this gem. You won't be disappointed. read more

The young girl who was working on July 17th was so friendly and let us try samples without hesitation. She complimented my children and how well they behaved and didn't make a mess while putting toppings on their fro yo and how they have great manners..that was really nice to hear. You can tell she has great work ethics. The fro yo was yummy too..def will be back when traveling thar area! read more

I did not know that this place was there and it's been a year. I'm sorry (apologizing to myself). I love having choices for toppings. Take as much as you want and pay for everything by weight. Nice, helpful person at the register explaining pricing, etc. Family-friendly location with a few seats/tables inside and seats outside. Ample free parking. Happy dessert dance in progress. read more

Great froyo spot!!! Place is clean and well-kept. Staff is super nice and very helpful. My family and I loved it!

Visited this tucked away yoghurt spot. Great flavors made with quality ingredients. So glad to have found and will visit again soon!

I was craving something sweet after dinner. This was a decent place to get frozen yogurt. No frills & kind of pricy, but ok. Nothing to write home about. The yogurt was good & the toppings I choose were fresh. Not a lot of options, but it satisfied my craving. read more

We stumbled upon Summit Swirl while cruising through Truckee and decided to stop in about 8 min before they closed. As we approached, we could see Allie through the window, joking that she was probably cursing us under her breath as we walked up because it was so close to lockup time. We couldn't have been more wrong. Allie met us with a smile and a positive attitude that knocked our socks off. She even told us to make a mess of the place (it was clean as clean gets). Tom & JoJo hear me out: This girl is rockstar! Customer service guru, and total Truckee girl. We LOVE this place! read more

I was going to stop in to pick up a frozen yogurt. The attendant retrieving and serving the frozen yogurt wasn't wearing a mask. Needless to say I didn't get a frozen yogurt. read more

I have been twice now and have met both husband and wife owners. They were very friendly and excited to bring Truckee a dedicated frozen yogurt store! They have a great selection and have had different flavors each time to keep the taste buds wanting more. Highly recommend it! read more

I'll start by saying I understand it's a "small town" business. And Was great during COvid when they served you for $4. But now they went back to charging by ounce, it's way too expensive. $18 for two yogurts is ridiculous. Too much $ for us Truckee locals. Please Consider a flat rate even if need to raise to $5-6. read more

This frozen yogurt shop was an amazing stop on the way home from a day of skiing. They are doing a great job at handling covid restrictions and the staff was so friendly. Would highly recommend! read more

Some of the best frozen yogurt I've had in a long time! The person helping us (maybe he owner) was so helpful, friendly and passionate about the flavors. Would definitely come back! read more

Thank you, Summit Swirl for hearing my prayers. Finally, a frozen yogurt shop in Truckee! Summit Swirl has the best Tart I've ever had. Maybe because it's Italian Tart. The owners & employees alike are friendly, helpful & tentative. It's like being at home, but better because this home has FroYo. Summit Swirl has a winning recipe all the way around. *Tip: Don't miss out! If you're in Truckee, you need to hit this spot. read more
