Orange Leaf Yogurt

I wasn’t too impressed with this location. The frozen yogurt and toppings were good enough. It was the people that turned me off to this store. Everything was nice and quiet then this trio of self entitled teenagers Chaldean males to be specific and we all know how they can act like self entitled pricks and boy did they. They really make me hate the suburbs and want to move over to the Detroit/​Groose Pointe side of town but that’s a different conversation. Oh and the girl who should have been helping me and my gf. Grabbed some frozen yogurt of her own and sat down and hung out with them. Needless to say they put me in a bad mood put my gf in a real bad mood paid for our frozen yogurt and got the hell out. I’m thinking I’ll be going to a different location from now on or over to Menchies time will tell.

Do yourself a favor. Go to Menchies instead. What turned me off here is management, they treat employees horribly. No patience for those who are learning and just plain RUDE. Give me a break, you are managing an orange leaf franchise, not a Fortune 500 company. You have to allow new employees (who are not making Fortune 500 wages) to LEARN. Never going back to any of these franchises.

Remember when TCBY was all the rage? Then, they over-​expanded too quickly and fell out of popularity. I see Orange Leaf following that same business model. But who am I to know? After all, if were such an expert, I wouldn’t be giving you business advice for free. However, it doesn’t take Berkshire Hathaway to know that you should place a trash receptacle near outdoor seating areas. The two young female employees who locked the door on a couple of perspective customers after telling them to head to Menchie’s probably isn’t good for business, either. It was awkward to stand there with a big cup of yogurt while these people were being told they can’t come in. It was just before 9:30pm, which, is the closing time as shown on Unilocal.However, the door and the Orange Leaf website stated they closed at 10:00pm. Enough about those fools. I had my yogurt. So, I did exactly what other people warned about. I overfilled my cup. Two of their smallest containers of yogurt with toppings, plus tax, and tip came to about $ 21.00. Why did I tip at a self serve place? Well, I don’t know, I’m just a hell of a guy. I tried a variety of the flavors and suggest you sample some. I found some varieties to be off-​putting. I ended up getting the Wedding Cake flavor mixed with the Greek yogurt. I was happily surprised they had Wedding Cake as it was not listed as a flavor for the day on their website. Unfortunately, they didn’t have the Brownie Batter that was listed. It seems you can’t trust the website for hours or flavors. Anyway, I took a variety of toppings. I was disappointed in their fresh fruit offerings. Instead of fresh fruit, they mostly had some creepy fruit ball stuff. This shit reminded me of large caviar that mated with tapioca. The texture was just odd. At the end of the day, I just wasn’t sold on this place. The yogurt wasn’t decadent or refreshing. However, it was decent enough. The toppings left something to be desired. I can’t pinpoint exactly why, but my sweet tooth just wasn’t satisfied. Plus, I ended up having a stomach ache. I’m in no rush to return.

I love FroYo but I am not a fan of Orange Leaf… the flavors are weird, and the flavor combinations are even more weird. But even with the «unique» flavors, the frozen yogurt doesn’t have huge flavor. it’s bland. There is outside seating which is nice in the summer, but the location is very itsy bitsy, and quickly gets cramped. Because the location is so small, there aren’t all that many flavors or toppings. If you want to sample a flavor, you have to ask one of the employees (usually theres only 1 or 2 employees there at any given time), who then leaves the cash register and dispenses the froyo for you. I find this 1) unsanitary and 2) annoying. When the place gets packed, theres no time to dish out flavors because they’re too busy working the cash register. It also makes me feel uncomfortable and awkward, having to ask to sample more than one flavor. I’ve been here multiple times because it’s the only froyo place my husband’s family knows of, and each time it’s the same. I wish I could say my review was based off one visit, but unfortunately it’s not. We don’t even bother eating there anymore. we go at the request of the family, but then drive to Menchies ourselves when everyone separates.

My family and I stopped her last night after craving something sweet! I’ve never been to this location before and often go to the one at 21/​Card road.
This location is much smaller, cramped and has less fro yo machines. The machines had some weird combinations making me not want to swirl any flavors.
I only really liked one flavor (pistachio) but topped it with blackberries and caramel sauce. The fresh fruit lacked on the topping bar, maybe because it was an hour away from closing?
I would come back to this location if I was short on time and in the area. Wish it was double the size though!

If you like fro yo then you’re probably no stranger to Orange Leaf. They have a good flavor selection. Plenty of sweet plenty of fruity. Of course if your an original plain that’s there too. They usually have 1sugar free and 1 or 2 gluten free if that’s your thing. They have a covered area for toppings that I dislike. Think salad bar sneeze guard, only very inconvenient. If you want a topping in the back row you have to do an uncomfortable bend ir squat down to reach it. I prefer the Menchies topping area to the Orange Leaf hands down.
They also seem to cost most then a few other places, so watch what you fill up on. They have a little divider so you can split your cup into 3 areas for different creations, hower if you do this you’ll spend more. Just say no.
Overall good yogurt, eh on the toppings. This location is pretty small too so I suggest getting your to go.

First of all, this was my second Froyo visit in a day. My first expedition in Froyo Bliss, was another business nearby however it was a smaller serving. This time after dinner, I was craving a larger portion. I do personally have an affinity for the color orange, and this décor made me extremely happy. Nice bulbous plastic chairs in orange and white adds to the energizing look the parlor. The variety of flavors was creative, and non conforming as they don’t offer a twist variety of the flavors — it’s up to you! The dividers are in thirds, which are great for folks who like separate adventures in froyology. I had the dairy free pink lemonade, strawberry and some vanilla on top. The toppings are a nice variety of what you would see in a froyo shop. Personally, I’m not a mochi fan, however this was the first time I have seen it in this setting. The staff was enjoyable and informative, and gave us free samples for new flavors we’d like to try.

This is your typical Orange Leaf. 49c/​ounce, good flavors and toppings. The three-​fold separator which is pretty cool and which I haven’t seen at other froyo places.
We walked over here from Sterling’s Bistro (it’s next door, and near Lakeside Mall) tonight and it was pretty good.
One suggestion: don’t make me walk BACK to the front to get the bathroom key! I can see having that if you’re in a city or high traffic area, but I HATE that. So annoying.
Otherwise, the froyo is good and I’d recommend this place.

I’m definitely a lover of froyo so I wanted to check this place out. I wasn’t surprised by the teens manning the store when we arrived but I was taken aback by the moody greeting I received (possibly should have been a sign to turn around a walk out). They had a good variety of flavors, some flavors that you see and many froyo shops but some new ones as well. What was weird was the combinations in the machines which made it so you wouldn’t want to swirl the flavors (ex. pomegranate lemonade and salted caramel). I also noticed minimal choices for fresh fruit toppings which kind of minimizes the healthiness of frozen yogurt! I chose salted caramel which tasted good at first but once I finished I had a HORRIBLE aftertaste. That aftertaste makes me never want to go back.
On a side note, the space was very cramped and felt claustrophobic. There were lots of places to sit but the chairs and tables were so close together it made it hard to get around and be able to sit down easily and comfortably. I heard that there is an open-​air froyo store opening up in Troy around May. It will probably be worth going down there because this one isn’t worth going back to again.

It adds up very quickly (fresh fruit is heavy). But if you don’t go crazy with toppings it is extremely delicious and a great value. My wife always gets the coconut and loves it. I enjoyed the cheesecake yogurt very much.

At $ .49 an once it adds up fast so beware. As for the yogurt is was very good with plenty of toppings common and not so common types. A delightful break from the common Ice cream parlors. Can’t wait to come back.
