    Cash only!

    For a few years now, I've passed the yogurt mill with curiosity. There's always a very long line there. We tried to go at night, but the line was wrapped almost entirely around the strip mall. And then, add a yelp event. Someone mentioned that they will drive out of their way to go to the yogurt milll. So needless to say, I had to try it out. I thought that in the middle of a Sunday afternoon, it would be no problem. The line was shorter and it moved relatively quickly. The first thing you notice is how large the portion sizes are. So kudos on that especially in the day and age of price gouging. Staff was friendly, and I tried a sample of the tart lemonade. It was OK, but I decided to go with peanut butter and chocolate. Added turtle and mixed nuts. Perhaps I'm just not a yogurt, aficionado. The ones I've had in the past seemed to have much more flavor. Honestly, their peanut butter tasted like vanilla. And I think perhaps they need a new vendor for their turtle chocolate as it was waxy. In all, it's a good value for the quantity but not so much for the quality for me. Having said that there is always a very long line there so there must be something I'm missing. Give it a try and see what you think. Oh, and the only accept cash.

    Yogurt Mill lives up to the hype. I got the peanut butter froyo in the second largest size, and chose crushed peanut butter cups and cheesecake bites for the toppings. One thing that really sets Yogurt Mill apart is how they layer the toppings throughout (top, middle, and bottom) so you're not stuck with just froyo halfway through. Every bite is just as good as the first, which I seriously appreciate. Another unexpected bonus is that it freezes incredibly well. My husband and I actually ate it in several sittings since the portion is so huge. Even after being frozen, it still tasted almost as good as the day we got it. Some tips: definitely ask for your yogurt "dropped" and don't forget to bring cash since it's cash only. Love this place and already craving my next visit.

    Not worth going out of your way for; it's just froyo. I can see the appeal of a family business and a gigantic cup of froyo, but you do not need to drive over 20 minutes here and wait in a 40 minute line because their froyo really is just like any other froyo you've ever had. Flavors rotate daily and can be found on their instagram. You can sample their flavors. I found the menu sizes to be a bit misleading (in a good way I guess) since they do overfill and you might end up with more froyo than you anticipated. Toppings say $2.50 each topping but you can split that serving size to select up to 2 topping choices. I would say the baby size is probably the way to go since it's a good amount of froyo with a free topping included. Also Google search for coupons although they must be printed out. They only accept cash, no credit cards. There is ample parking in the lot. Staff is friendly. Service is a bit slow but at least you don't feel rushed. There is limited seating indoors and outdoors.

    We tried The Yogurt Mill this past week, after seeing it on IG, and being in the area, so it was on my list to try. So glad we went, took the family. The line was a little long but moved quickly, they have four windows helping customers, service being excellent! It is CASH ONLY, and they change the flavors daily, checking on their IG page for daily updates. I tried the plain tart, with chopped almonds, it was very tart and I loved it! I only like tart flavors when it comes to yogurt, I don't care for the ice cream type flavors, but they are good. I did try the coconut flavor and it was really good. We all got the baby size which comes with a free topping, and up to three flavors to choose from. This size is more than enough, and so much cheaper than going to chain yogurt store. We were all happy with our choices, and sat inside to eat, it's small inside but has a few tables, there were five of us and we sat comfortably, while enjoying our choices. Definitely recommend if you are out that way, we were not disappointed!

    Tart Sour Apple & Vanilla

    Yogurt Mill just might be the love of my life. Not an exaggeration. I mean this with my whole chest. I'm not sure how many people are with me when I say this, but yogurt is one of my favorite foods! From yogurt bowls to frozen yogurt, I'm a fan of it all. I've been seeing and hearing all about Yogurt Mill, so I dropped by one night to finally try it out! The line was absolutely insane. I think we waited around 40 mins to 1 hour. It's definitely a hot spot, especially at night when everyone's in the mood for a sweet treat. They offer a ton of flavors, toppings, and sizes. We went for the classic Vanilla and their funky Tart Sour Apple (topped with sour gummy worms & rainbow sprinkles). Holy moly. Their froyo was unlike anything I've ever tasted! It was rich, thick, creamy, and just wow. My mind was blown! Also, as a lover of apples, the Tart Sour Apple flavor was probably the most beautiful crossover I've tasted. Their sizes are HUGE! We went with their smallest which is a Baby. It comes with 3 flavors max and 1 free topping. I'd definitely recommend getting bigger sizes since their yogurts refreeze extremely well! They taste just as good. Pro-tip: They're CASH ONLY! If you're looking to use a coupon, you have to have it physically printed out from their site in order to use it. They're old school haha.

    This place is CASH ONLY and a great deal. You get a HUGE cup for a few bucks. I got the baby cup which comes with up to 3 flavors and 2 toppings. A hack is to get the largest cup (since it's the best deal) and freeze the rest at home. It freezes well since the frozen yogurt here is soooo light and fluffy! I don't think it's overly sweet either. The staff is extremely friendly and you can sample any of the many flavors they have before deciding on what you want.

    CASH ONLY!!! This pace is absolutely delicious!! Flavors are rotated I believe, but I'm a vanilla guy myself! If you're going around dinner time be prepared to wait in a line out the door, but I promise the wait is well worth it! This place has been a community favorite not only in El Cajon but people from cities surrounding will travel just to taste this deliciousness. Assorted flavors, toppings and sizes. Customer service is always top notch! I will see you soon Yogurt Mill!

    My friend dragged me out to check out this spot that was on her bucket list, so I was excited. From the beginning, there was a long line (over an hour!) on a Thursday night. The frozen yogurt itself was not impressive. There are a variety of flavors to choose from, my personal favorites I tried were the coconut, peanut butter, and coffee. The serving was generous and fairly priced. What irked me the most was the intense artificial flavors. This place would be better if not for the long wait times. Try to come when it is not as crowded as the wait is not worth it.

    Delicious yogurt in generous sizes! CASH ONLY! Print a coupon online for BOGO Free yogurt! Even without the coupon, the huge sizes and plentiful toppings are a great deal. A cone or baby size would suit a single person while a child size or larger is great for sharing (and even having leftovers to freeze). The wait can be long during peak times, like after dinner, so prepare for a wait 30 minutes+. The staff is very friendly and you can get free samples before deciding on a flavor or two. Each topping is $2.50 but you get so much of it layered throughout the yogurt, it is very worthwhile. The yogurt flavors rotate. There is indoor & outdoor seating and a spacious parking lot.

    Word on the block is that this is the best frozen yogurt in all of San Diego. I actually have never heard of this place until my friend took me here. Apparently it blew up on TikTok and now the line is ridiculously long. I timed it. We waited about 1 hour on a Sunday night (8pm) just to get yogurt. Aside from the painful wait the yogurt is splendid. They have a good variety of rotating flavors and the prices are incredibly good for the size you get. We appreciated the kindness and patience of Sean. Even though they were slammed during the last hour of the business day all the employees looked genuinely happy to be there and serve everyone their amazing yogurt. I would definitely come again but the wait is kind of insane so maybe I'll come back when it's not 1 hour+ wait.

    Stumbled upon theeeee best frozen yogurt on a beautiful sunday afternoon! I was at home, scrolling through Instagram and I saw a reel about this wonderful yogurt shop in SD! Messaged my friend and said are you down to take the drive from Temecula to El Cajon (which btw didnt even know where el cajon was)....so we hopped in the car...took the beautiful drive and arrived to this wonderful, cute little spot! There was a decent line...it moved quick...we chatted some some locals who gave us some hints on ordering - when you order, choose the size and then say "drop" ... the variety of flavors and toppings are out of this world! Honestly I cant even remember what flavor I got but it was DELICIOUS and I would gladly drive the distance for Yogurt Mill! Staff is SO friendly and reminder, CASH ONLY!!! I love the fact that they layer the toppings...the portion sizes dont disappoint I can't wait to go back!!

    overall a pretty good yogurt place. we went in the afternoon so were able to order right away. this place offers bogo coupons but you have to bring in the physical copy. also they only accept cash. we liked how much the pack the yogurt and toppings into the cup. the amount of yogurt you get is a substantial amount for the price. also these hold up pretty well in the freezer if you bring them home. though not sure if i would wait in the long lines that we were seeing online for the yogurt. there is limited seating inside. but they definitely blast the ac so your yogurt stays nice and cold!

I have now been to Golden Spoon twice, though I didn't buy anything the second time. Last summer I went there for the first time. I noticed that the shop was clean, but could probably use a bit of a touch up with the interior, as it is looking slightly outdated. I also noticed that the selection was a somewhat underwhelming. However, service was friendly. Then I chose the plain tart, which has always been my favorite yogurt flavor, as well as salted caramel. The yogurt was good and luckily didn't melt too quickly. I went back recently, this summer. I had been trying to eat healthy and couldn't remember the selection from the time before, but had been hoping for some fat-free and low calorie options. I also had to drive and run a lot of errands afterward, so was hoping for a sort of shake or smoothie with fruit blended in. When I arrived, the attendant was helping another customer, so I had time to study the menu. I looked it over and realized again that the selection was rather small. I saw the same plain tart and salted caramel that I had chosen previously, but not much else, and no fat-free or low calorie options. Also, the shake selection was a bit decadent instead of the light yogurt and fruit blend I had hoped for. Though I do love my plain tart, I chose to leave without purchasing anything, as they simply did not have what I wanted that day. Given the location, I'll probably return sometime. However, I will most likely only go when I am in the mood for the few flavors that I know they have.
