Pinkberry- Fairfield

1512 Post Road, Fairfield CT 06824

Hours: Mon-Fri 12pm-11pm
          Sat-Sun 11am-11pm









After a day of shopping I was in need of some fro yo. I remembered seeing a pinkberry in downtown Fairfield and convinced my friend to go with me. She isn't a fro yo fan, but she decided to try it and loved it. Another person converted! My friend got peanut butter with strawberries, raspberries, and chocolate chips. I got a pomegranate with blueberries, bananas, dark chocolate crisps, and pomegranate seeds. 




Ratings (Swirls 1-7) 

Quality: 
Top quality, like the other Pinkberry locations I have been to. My friend said her fro yo tasted exactly like peanut butter. 

Variety: 
This location was offering four different flavors, but they do rotate new flavors in a few times a year.  

Variety of Toppings: 
Pinkberry offers a lot of toppings and this location offered pomegranate seeds which I really enjoyed. 

Ambiance: 
The store is located right on the main street in down town fairfield. There are a few tables in the store, but was pretty crowded and understaffed when we went.

I have been waiting for this place to open for months. All summer I watched the progress as the store was constructed and it is finally open. I went in on a saturday after of a fairly chilly day and there were about 15 other people in the store. They allow people to sample, but you have to wait in line to obtain the sample cups. After trying a few flavors I settled on pomegranate raspberry. Since it is such a tart flavor I added mango, walnuts, and mini chocolate chips. 








Ratings (1-7 swirls) 

Quality: 
The yogurt was much to icy and granulated. It lacked the creaminess of other fro yo. That said it was still a tasty snack.

Variety: 
Frosty Twisty offers 8 different flavors at a time. The flavors are rotated but not as frequently as others stores. 

Variety of Toppings: 
There were quite a few toppings offered. The normal candy, sprinkles, cereal, and fruit. There was less fruit then I would like, but they do offer puppy chow which is delicious.

Ambiance: 
Since the store is brand new it is very clean and modern. There are counters along the window and more tables scattered around the store. It is right off the green in Milford so there is a lot of foot traffic. The service was less then excellent, but could be due to how new the store it. 

Extras: Frosty Twisty also serves coffee, waffles, crepes and many other breakfast foods. Breakfast is served all day. There is also a one time 10% off coupon on the facebook page.
