locationsWith about three dozen locations, most centered in the southern United States, Yogurt Mountain is a chain of self-serve frozen yogurt bars most often found in book stores and strip malls around the country. Each location offers about a dozen kinds of frozen yogurt at a time, many of which rotate from season to season, as well as a ton of toppings to fill them up. While the lime green and purple decor mean the spot sits well with a younger age group, the flavors of the yogurt itself range in quality.

The exact flavors change pretty frequently, and you should expect to see a lot of variety depending on the time of the year. Some good spots:

Toasted Coconut: This year-round flavor is one of my favorites! The coconut flavor is strong and it’s just a little bit of toasty flavor at the end.
Yellow Cake Batter: A favorite of mine because this one can be paired with just about everything. The cake batter is sweet and any kind of fruit would do really well in this one.
Cookies & Cream: A classic flavor of course, the cookies and cream lacks the crunchy texture of typical ice cream, but the toppings will fix that.
Eggnog: This flavor is seasonal and it’s intense! That eggnog makes for a thicker, and certainly heavier flavor. It’s one I would suggest be best on its own.
Blueberry Tart: This one lives up to the tart name; the blueberry favor isn’t as strong. I recommend you pair this one with the vanilla or one of the classic flavors.

There are a ton of toppings on the menu from cookies to candy and nuts. Dozens, in fact, and it seems that just about every flavor has a topping that goes well with it. Each location also has about ten flavors at a time, and they are paired up in order to mix well, and the options here are pretty good matches for each other. What’s also nice; the spot has big dividers for the ice creams so you can get a few that don’t go together.

The self serve experience makes this a simple place to go. It’s a little pricier than the average yogurt shop, and the flavors are all pretty good. As a self-serve frozen yogurt shop goes, this one offers a pretty easy experience. Locating it near places where people want to walk a lot is also a pretty good decision. All in all, not a bad time.

Recommendations

There are a lot of seasonal flavors, so there are plenty of reasons to come back each month.
There is a “YOMO Club” for frequent visitors, which also offers a nice birthday gift for you when you visit.
Don’t forget the dozens of toppings that can be added to your yogurt.
