Let Your Imagination Run Wild at Downtown Yogurt

As you might recall, Downtown Yogurt on Newark and Grove opened last week; luckily, a few days prior to Arctic Vortex pt. 2. While winter probably isn't the ideal time to open a frozen yogurt shop, I think I can confidently say that this shop will have no trouble attracting customers all year round.

I stopped by opening night to check out what was on offer and give the yogurt a try. The space is bright and welcoming although I can see there being some traffic issues between the yogurt and the toppings if it gets crowded. If I counted correctly, there are 8 different yogurt/frozen dessert options and a whole table of toppings including nuts, granola, mini pb and mini raspberry cups, fruit (happily not floating in lots of sugary syrup), various small candies like m&ms and nerds, hot fudge, etc. One of the things I was happy to see is that there's a Greek yogurt option, a sorbet option, and a few non-fat and low-fat yogurt options - something for everyone!
