This is the last standing frozen yogurt in downtown, unfortunately. I have only been to this place out of pure curiosity and desperation to have frozen yogurt. It's a galley style layout, kind of odd. I trie( their sorbet and chocolate froyo with some Oreo cookies, PB and caramel. I know they have a bunch of random stuff to put on your frozen yogurt, but I am usually disappointed when I put too much stuff on my frozen yogurt or ice cream. It was rather expensive for what you get, but they do give you a lot of toppings and certainly interesting. The service is meh, just staffers that weight out your bowl and take your money, felt very transactional from what I recall. I was always bummed that it was this place that survived and not sweet earth, which was definitely better quality. read more

Food service and ambiance were on point in here. They offer free samples. I tried the Taro and pineapple sorbet. They were both great but I went with the pineapple sorbet...i also mixed in some vanilla...and I topped it off with fresh kiwi, strawberries, cherries, and pineapples. read more

Greetings and salutations yelpers. After dinner needed to fill that sweet tooth. Walking around happened upon this little gem. Spotting it from afar and being from New York thought it was 16 handles. It wasn't but very similar. Upon entering greeted warmly and with bright smiles. Proceeded to look at flavors to decide flavors. It does offer seating to dine inside. Very cute. Selected pomegranate and strawberry with coconut and other toppings. Saw topping looking like gummy bears that cashier recommended not a fan of gummies but decided to try. Whoa I was like a kid in candy store. They were like bubbles popping in your mouth. I was so enthralled I couldn't get enough wanted to return and purchase a cupful lol. When I say it's the little things. All in all sweet tooth satisfied, check and check. read more

See all

I have been to this location multiple times. It's the only place near me that has tart flavored yogurt. However, it's very expensive and the staff running the store have no idea what they're doing. Yesterday I went to pick up an order I placed online. When I got there the staff had no clue how online orders worked. My order was obviously not prepared. One employee stayed in the back while another explained that they only accept online orders from certain platforms and they didn't have my order. I ordered through Grubhub and that's one of the companies they list as working with. They pretty much blew me off. I got the distinct impression that they were just waiting to close. The topping section was closed off and covered. The employee that wasn't hiding in the back had a bunch of stuff set out in front of her at the window seat. I have no clue if she was eating a multi-course meal or doing an art project. She definitely wasn't concerned with customers. It was not an experience I intend to repeat. read more

First two places we tried in royal oak were closed. And yogurt city had dairy free vegan sorbet! Yogurt city for the win!

The food and service was great!!! Just expensive obviously but u get to add lots of fun toppings and the flavors of the yogurt is unique!.

This place is never open and insanely expensive. Used to be a good place to go but not now they are never open and prices have skyrocketed.

The employee behind the counter was great! So 5/5 on service. She was really nice to my kids. The yogurt was really good and a solid selection of flavors. Toppings were same. Many to pick from and all delicious! The store was super clean and well lit. Overall, we were soooo happy to find that there is a Yogurt City right here in our city! We attended were there at 9:15 pm on 9/08/23. read more

An okay frozen yogurt place. Most of your regular toppings, nothing crazy. They do have a "no sugar added" caramel flavor that is pretty good. I also enjoy the coffee flavor. Cons revolve around their terribly awkward and rude employees that make it difficult for someone to even want to return. My first time back this year I was greeted by an employee who almost refused to give us spoons, saying she didn't want to "put them on the dirty counter". My second time here was a mess. The woman working behind the counter literally pointed to the tip jar and said "this so I can buy myself something nice". It was so weird and made me feel really uncomfortable. I signed my credit card slip as fast as possible so I could run out of there and before I was done the worker pointed to the tip line on the credit card slip and said "this for tip." I paid $5.35 for a plain frozen yogurt with nuts and had to suffer through the cringiest environment in Royal Oak- why would I leave a tip? Besides, its a self-serve yogurt place?! read more

I am quite a fan of this place from the handful of time I have been here. I like the flavor selection that they swap out every so often slightly to keep things new and exciting. The toppings they offer for you to put on your yogurt are very vast as well. The price is a bit steep depending on how much you get, but it's definitely worth it. I wish the inside was a bit bigger though because since it is cold out now, you can't sit outside anymore to eat. read more

As I become older and maybe even more A.D.D., random things pop into my head. In this case when I see the words "Yogurt City", I immediately think of Weird Al UHF and "SPATULA CITY! SPATULA CITY". In fact, I just watched in on Youtube. Anyway, my lady wanted to stop. Prices were not as painful as I thought they would be and they had plenty of flavors and toppings. She picked a bunch of toppings that really didn't go together but I'm sure Fruity Pebbles and Strawberries mixed with many other random treats can't be bad. At the end of the day, I would happily go back. read more

I really enjoyed Aunt Sally's advice on toppings. A+ for enthusiasm. Also; Dole Whip! read more

I've never really considered myself a FroYo person. Nothing against it, really, but also nothing I'd ever go out of my way for. Fast forward to my trip into Yogurt City yesterday... maybe I AM a FroYo person after all! My wife loves this place and has been stopping in here periodically with the kids. But being as I'm not a FroYo person (or so I thought), I'd always sat those ventures out. I wound up coming along, finally, and am truly glad I did. I'm no connoisseur but this was truly the best frozen yogurt I'd ever had. The cheesecake and pistachio flavors side-by-side in a bowl were sensory perfection in the mouth even unadorned with toppings. But combining a bit of white chocolate syrup, crumbled Heath bar, and cheesecake bites, on top of the cheesecake FroYo was nothing short of a peak yogurt experience for me. I can barely even recall what I did with the pistachio flavor (it involved crushed graham cracker) but it was nearly as delicious. Will absolutely for sure be coming back here. Can't wait. I might have even dreamed about it last night and wouldn't be surprised to repeat that dream tonight. FroYo. Who knew? read more

So I'm from Texas, where yogurt places are everywhere. I was craving yogurt while walking around in Royal Oak. Let me tell you, this place is top quality! The best part of this place is the enormous amount of topping choices they have. The fruit toppings are super fresh. The staff are helpful and friendly as well. It is a bit on the pricy side at 55 cents per ounce as I'm used to paying 40 cents in Texas. read more

Yogurt City - Fresh fruit! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

Very comparable to Sweet Earth across the street in my opinion. Again with the sample cups, wth? At sweet earth they wouldn't let me get my own sample, and here, I couldn't even find any haha. Oh well, whatever. Yogurt is creamy and again is similar to the other place. I just got a twist of chocolate and vanilla with marshmallows, hot fudge, Oreos, brownies, and Mochi. Everything was good except for the brownie bites. Ew. I don't know if they were not fresh or something, but they tasted so bad; I spit them out. Yogurt was great though! read more

Yogurt City - Really good! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

Man they're expensive! Between my friend and I we got two different combinations of ice cream. On over the half of the ice cream dispensers was a sign "sorry under maintenance we charging our recipe" there was only a handful wired flavors available. The flavors were plain and watery. At the checkout I paid $19 for two tiny cups of ice cream!!!! At the Riz Carlton I paid $20 for much better ice cream. read more

Boy do I love fro yo! Whats not to love about a place that lets you serve yourself one of the most delicious treats ever! Yogurt City has great variety in terms of flavors and just about any kind of topping you can think of. OH and sauce I am a girl who loves the sauce haha! Give me some cake batter fro yo with chocolate sauce and sprinkles and I am happy! Yogurt city is SUPER clean and the gal working was very friendly. My friend nd I had a great time relaxing watching cartoon and eating our self made treats. I love this concept and I am happy to have found this place close to home to indulge upon. I highly recommend you get your rears to Yogurt City and fill your bellies with happiness! read more

This is our go-to FroYo place and we love stopping by while enjoying downtown Royal Oak. Staff have always been pleasant and flavors and toppings are great (we normally just do fruit, so I can't comment on the selection of other toppings, but it seems like there is a lot to choose from!). We were in tonight and it was very busy. There was only one staff member working, but she remained professional and friendly despite the demands of holding it down on her own. Well done- hopefully extra staff will be scheduled soon. read more

The yogurt is average. The service is average. The prices are high. When I walked in, I asked for taster cups. The employee had broken English and acted like she did not understand. She ended up bringing the taster cups to the yogurt line and proceeded to serve me. The service experienced was very average at best. read more

So true about all of the comments about the lady who hounds for tips! It's quite awful and as another reviewer said, it's self service, why would I tip on an already expensive bill! She follows you around and hovers and continues to ask for tips even after you've paid and want to enjoy your treat. My family and I have actually left the building because it was so obnoxious! The yogurt itself is mediocre but there are a lot of great topping choices and my girls love it. I wish they didn't! read more

These places are popping up everywhere these days. The only thing that sets them apart are the toppings and the flavors. Well just the flavors. Toppings are pretty much the same everywhere. Pros + lots of flavors. Caramel was especially flavorful. + cold! Brr + calorie counter on Wall. + lots of toppings. Cons - yogurt city logo kind of childish. Ugly even - decor and layout too plain. Like someone without any aesthetic skills designed and colored it. Looks like a boring place to work when it's slow. Cheers read more

It's like the yogurt shops back home in California but on a smaller scale! Clean, surprisingly spacious inside, and with a variety of flavors. Awesome place! read more

Yogurt City - Taro and bday cake with sprinkles, Oreo, and graham. The only downer is they don't have plain mochi. :'( - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

So on the outside , this looks like your typical yogurt self serve place with toppings.. and you pay by the weight. Tables for seating. And a pretty decent sized space. I was skeptical at first. Why should I go in? Spend my calories on yogurt?!? My I am the curious sort so I at least stepped in. The toppings are standard. I would have liked some other items.. but in the end it turned out perfectly. The topping did not sell it to me. Ok. Still curious, I walked over to the yogurt flavors. Looking looking, pumpkin pie yogurt?!?! What was this?!?! There were also other intriguing flavors. Ok now I wanted to sample the yogurt! The staff was more than happy to assist in the sampling process... pumpkin pie yogurt it is! Just like pumpkin pie. I was very surprised. Now for the toppings add Graham cracker, white chocolate chips and may be a dollop of whipped cream... be sure not to skimp or else you'll wish you got more. read more

Sorry Sweet Earth! You close too early for me and I had to have frozen yogurt. I liked these flavors better anyways. Vanilla is good and the vegan raspberry was tasty too. I tried a little of the white chocolate, yum! I like the fresh fruit on mine but they have a nice variety of toppings. The place was clean and neat with comfortable seating. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Royal Oak. read more

Yogurt City - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

The frozen yogurt is good and the employees are always helpful and kind. With that being said, the layout is awkward and not many people can sit or congregate with how the tables are set up. Overall, I'd say it's par, but nothing over the top. Could improve read more

I love this froyo store!! My boyfriend and i go to the one in downtown royal oak often. The workers have ALWAYS been so polite and sweet.

This is my favorite place to take the kids to. They love how you can choose to put and flavor with any combination and any topping, and so do I! For the most part it's pretty cheap too. They charge based on ounce so you pay what you want to eat which is convenient read more

Contrary to the name, Yogurt City is not a city made of actual yogurts like "Dannon" or "Fage". Disappointing as it may seem, Yogurt city still has about a dozen yogurts that you can top with syrups, fruit, candy and even cereals. Question, if you top frozen yogurt with cereal does it make it a breakfast? I think it does. The only downside to this is you tend to overload your yogurt with chocolate, gummy bears and sprinkles that you don't need. This gets expensive. A small cup of frozen yogurt cost me nearly $6. I could buy two gallons of yogurt from Kroger for that much. For that price, I would expect my yogurt to have a probiotic. Someone get Jamie Lee Curtis on the line to help my out. My intestines count on it. read more

A bright and colorful shop with lots and lots of awesome looking toppings. I could come here all the time and try different combos of toppings and never be bored. Not a froyo lover but this place satisfied my sweet tooth with all the amazing toppings. Will be back again, most definitely!!!! read more

The yogurt soft serve was good however, the staff made the environment very unpleasant. I went In twice with in a week and dealt with the same woman forcing me to tip her. Literally taking my change and putting it in her tip jar without asking. Also, making remarks such as "you look rich you don't need this" I was extremely offended. The second time going I saw the same woman again and sure enough she tried to force the tip. Telling me " I take care of you, you take care of me" when I did not respond she said again when I cashed out "you take care of me?" Pointing at her tip jar. This was my last straw. I no longer feel comfortable coming in another time to this establishment. read more

I've never had Frozen Yogurt before but Yogurt City had some good froyo. It tasted just like ice cream. I tried the pineapple sorbet. It was amazing. Definitely coming back soon! read more

The Yogurt flavors are great!!!! However, the Asian lady who works there is a real deal breaker. Never, ever stopped talking and was soliciting for a tip from the time we walked in until we paid. Tip for what??? all she does is weight the yogurt! Hope she is not there next time we go there. So annoying! would rather eat out in the cold than sit and listen to her! read more

I always enjoy taking my daughter to the yogurt stands. So fun to see her pick and choose all the wonderful goodies. My experience was very nice. But I agree with others, a tip jar at a self serve is a bit awkward. I did drop a dollar because we only got one light weight serving and I happen to have it in my pocket so I didn't experience the pressure that I sadly see in others reviews. That is cringy to say the least. These are new owners and will find their way or wonder where everyone went with their 'tips'. Their not the only ones around, so they seemed nice and hope they figure it out. read more

Great variety of Froyo! Yea a little pricey but you pay by the weight and is priced with competitors in the area. They usually have rasberry and strawberry and my fiance loves those tart berry flavors, they seem to be one of the few places in the area that are consistant with carrying them. I REALLY dislike how when you asl for sample cups they don't give them to you. An employee comes and does it for you, they don't let you taste test yourself. read more

The manger is never present at the shop so if you ever have issues you can't be mad at the employees working they don't know where she is and she never tells them if she will ever show up. read more

Yogurt was pretty good. The lady will probably try to play with your child in a totally non-creepy way. Just let it happen or she will persist. She's just weird. Bring a bag of ice and 3 spark plugs. You'll know soon enough. read more

We tried this place 2 weeks ago now that Sweet Earth is closed. This place is terrible - smells, no dairy free, vegan selections, toppings are messy and the entire place does not look very clean. We will continue to look for a FroYo option in Royal Oak - it certainly will not be Yogurt City read more

Stopped in after dinner for some dessert. The place was packed!! I thought it was going to be good. I was sooo wrong! I judge a froyo place by their 'original' tart flavor. This was the only time that I gagged when I tried my sample of their original! Yuck. I walked out with the quickness! Had to spit out the sample. Never again! read more

Cute, colorful little yogurt shop in Royal Oak. We walked over from the library. If you've ever been to Menchies or Orange Leaf, this place is like that. You grab a bowl and choose your own flavors and put on your own toppings. They had everything from caramel, chocolate, cake batter, pistachio, to non dairy options like orange, raspberry and strawberry. The toppings were the freshest and best I've seen. The berries were fresh and perfect! They had every kind of candy topping imaginable, even chocolate covered pretzels and cookie dough bites to add to your masterpiece. They also had different cereals to add, like fruity pebbles and Cinnamon Toast Crunch, which I've never seen before. The gal behind the counter was very nice as well. Would definitely recommend! But this is your warning... You will be stuffed when you leave! :) read more

Place smelled like a toilet first and foremost. I asked for a spoon because I did not see any sample cups and the cashier promptly addressed me across the room and told me that I needed a sample cup which she personally hands out and that's different than a spoon. (Thank you! I didn't know the difference. Insert rolling eye emoji. ) I can completely understand that they need to monitor samples to keep costs and waste low, however the female sales person was kind of rude and it felt like you were bothering her to try a sample. I am glad I tried a few samples as I didn't find anything I liked. We left completely turned off, would not reccomend. read more
