Iceberry

I went in here few times before but never really bought anything while my friends did. Two of my friends got small amount of yogurt which came to be $ 14 and some change. I went in recently to get a bubble tea and it was tiny ($ 6.00). Over priced. I understand it’s in Georgetown but that’s just too much. Anyways, the tea was good.

I came here yesterday with one of the kids I babysat for. She had froyo and I had a peach smoothie. My smoothie was ok, not great – too sweet and not enough fruitiness like Jamba Juice. Though I didn’t get yogurt, I may have given this place 3.5 or even 4 stars if it was self serve.

While not the greatest or cheapest fro-​yo place, I thought this did the job well enough. The people were super sweet and had no problem giving me two samples– I guess their policy has changed. There are very limited flavors and the toppings are not self serve, which is too bad. Generally I thought the fro yo tasted decent and refreshing– I also noticed on their website that it is healthier than other fro-​yos, so that is to be taken into consideration when commenting that it wasn’t the sweetest/​best fro-​yo I’ve ever had.

IceBerry est un établissement de yaourt glacé et autres boissons fraîches et gourmande situé a GeorgeTown en plein cœur de Washington. C’est une halte plutôt appréciable lors d’une séance shopping sous la chaleur du soleil.
Halte appréciable pour son côté rafraîchissant, mais pour moi ça s’arrête un peu la au final… Pourquoi? Et bien tout d’abord quand on arrive près du comptoir pour choisir ses «toppings» on constate que quelques mouchent tournoient autour et participent au festin avant vous ! Assez refroidissant, j’ai opté pour un thé glacé qui s’est avéré pas mauvais non plus mais que j’ai du attendre un bon moment, allez savoir pourquoi… Mon accompagnatrice a opté elle en revanche pour un yaourt glacé avec un topping au chocolat, je l’ai goûté et il était bon mais pas phénoménal pour autant.
Le service quand a lui est assez moyen, pas vraiment souriant ni très réactif. Autre déception, lors du passage en caisse la serveuse nous avait inclus sur l’addition la commande du client suivant ! Heureusement que nous avons bien regardé et que nous avons demande une rectification de la note.
Bref pour conclure c’est une impression vraiment mitigée pour cet établissement de «frozen yogurt» qui a néanmoins l’avantage d’être le bienvenue quand on se balade pour une petite pause rafraîchissante.

I would prefer Pink Berry as the selection is better. I am not seeing the rave here, maybe I went on the wrong day. The customer service (lack) alone turned me off from this place.

I’m loyal to Pinkberry, but decided I should give this a try since Pinkberry was a bit of a walk from where I was. Yes, the price is expensive and I’m willing to dish out if it’s actually good and this place is NOT. The plain flavored yogurt has a really bizarre aftertaste and my cup has lots of black fluff in the bottom of it– not a pleasant surprise to see on your spoon. I would have asked for a different serving if I was still in the store. I got excited to see that they have Mochi, but it was pretty horrible. Again, it tasted very chemical, like the yogurt did. The only redeeming quality is that they had 3 different flavors of boba, or «popping bubbles», which Pinkberry doesn’t have (not yet at least…). Bottom line: won’t go back and wouldn’t recommend.

Self-​serve yogurt with typical «Asian» flavors like taro and green tea as well as others. The yogurt itself was a bit watery, which kind of doesn’t make it as appealing. Nevertheless the flavors made the froyo appetizing,
For the toppings, I put something in my yogurt that looked like a flavored boba ball, but it was actually a popper! Very interesting.
What’s not to like? The price. Like holy shit, this is the most expensive frozen yogurt I’ve ever paid for.

YES. Legit asian froyo in DC that’s not too bad on your wallet! the fruit there is quality and it’s pretty easy going… doesn’t make you feel stressed out like at pinkberry where the servers stare at you to order.
the taro froyo was super good!

I still love this place! I get a small chocolate with oreos and gummy bears and pay $ 6. The place is usually empty at lunchtime. They are finally allowing you to sample flavors now! I tried the green tea but it was too bitter. I tried the chocolate flavor at Pinkberry but it was too rich and heavy, here at Iceberry it’s just perfect! I looked it up online and a small size chocolate is just 88 calories. I can’t believe it because it’s sooo good!
ETA I saw all the reviews for the honeydew flavor so today I went back and got the honeydew with mochi. OMG it’s so refreshing!

I really like it. Their toppings are good and I love their froyo flavors, especially green tea and the melon.
Yes, it’s a bit pricey. But it is Georgetown, after all, so that shouldn’t be a surprise.

I’ve tried every single frozen yogurt joint in DC area, and this is by far the best (with Pink Berry 2^nd, Red Mango in last place).
I suggest ordering the the honeydew melon (favorite topping is mochi). It is extremely refreshing and light. Strawberry and mango are next favorites, as original is too plain and chocolate is a bit chalky/​unnatural tasting. They will let you sample.
The only downside is the service at this location which is very cold, aggressive, and unfriendly.

So my friends always talk about how good iceberry is. So I decided to try it today. Overall, I hated it. The staff was overall very unfriendly. They were pushy, rude, and made me feel uncomfortable. I felt rushed. It was also really overpriced. The original small was around $ 4. This is JUST the froyo. Then you have to pay about 95 cents extra for each topping you add. I ordered the original froyo with rasberry and mango. It didn’t taste all that special. My friend ordered Honeydew Froyo with gummy bears and mango. The honeydew tasted like a korean melon bar.
I would never go back. Sweet Green is much closer to Georgetown U’s campus and much more student friendly. For about $ 4 at Sweet Green I would get much more froyo (without a huge gaping hole in the middle) + 3 guaranteed toppings. The froyo doesn’t taste all that special or all too different to actually pay SO much more.

I walked by to take a rest and I was pleasantly surprised to see a melon flavor. I’ve never seen it in NY so I had to try. It was so good I only let my friend have two tastes. It went really well with strawberries. I would not recommend anyone get coffee here. It was really watered down and took really long. I thought they went to go pick the beans.

Stopped by Ice Berry for a sugary snack. It was winter, so it was no surprise that we were the only ones there.
This Pinkberry clone (or is it the other way around?) has lots of orange colors and more frozen yogurt flavors than Pinkberry.
Beyond their basic vanilla flavor, the chocolate got our attention. Shared a cup of that, and asked for sprinkles and a Fruity Pebbles topping (60 cents/​topping; credit cards accepted). Eating Ice Berry was almost like eating frosting but more refreshing, even in the cold. Not bad.

I am officially listing Iceberry as my favorite cold-​treat place in the area. I’ve tried Mr. Yogato, SweetGreen, tangysweet, Shilla, Pitango Gelato, Something Sweet, Coldstone Creamery, Milwaukee’s Frozen Custard, Maggie Moo’s, Baskin Robbin’s, Dolcezza, Boccato, and Yogen Fruz.
Sure sure sure. I love my pat bing soo at Shilla like nothing other, but I can’t be expected to gorge on a $ 9 trough of craziness at the drop of the hat. I also love Milwaukee, but its sometimes a bit rich for my tastes. And I won’t even mention the ridiculously delicious Banana Split at Central, but that’s a little more «special occasion» than your standard fro-​yo run.
I don’t care what you say, the honeydew yogurt here is amazing. I can eat it plain, but I love topping it with gummy bears as well. The flavor is tart and refreshing. It quenches my thirst, but it cleanses my palate enough so that I can devour the whole cup myself.
The portions are a little chintzy here-​the yogurt is poured into the cup as an outer-​ring and this hollow in the bottom is strategically covered by a swirl on top. Very sneaky if you ask me. They have frequenter punch cards, but they only punch per visit, so when I was with my family and we bought four yogurts, they were only going to punch it once. Can you believe that? I tried arguing with them, but they were really stubborn (at the Chantilly location) and allowed us to get two stamps, but «Only this one time». Geez. Also, they don’t offer samples at the Georgetown location. I understand because they only have three or four flavors, but still. I like that they’re conveniently located and stay open late though~

Decent yogurt, scant topping selection *(no yogurt chips!?), bit pricey for just a small, one topping froyo!
With so many rival froyo shops that offer more toppings, free samples and are a bit cheaper, I see no real reason to make a special trip here.
Sure, If I’m in the area and find myself craving some froyo, I’d stop in… but I’d almost rather spend the $$ on a crave-​worthy cupcake at B+W instead.

Sure, it’s expensive, but so are Mr. Yogato, and Tangysweet, and Sweet Green, and…
The no-​samples policy is annoying, but really all of their flavors are good so you can’t really go wrong. I really enjoyed the honeydew yogurt – definitely better than the stuff Sweet Green serves. But I’d probably recommend going to Mr. Yogato or Tangysweet and getting the same delicious yogurt for a little less money.

I was sad to discover that, due to popular demand, they no longer offer samples of their frozen yogurt flavors. I’ve seen the line out the door many times so I understand the need to try and expedite things, but the line is certainly indication that people are more than willing to wait!
Other frown-​inducing factors: no ‘customer loyalty’ cards like rival froyo shops, and, whoa, HOW MUCH did I just pay for my one-​topping yogurt?
I still have to hand it to Iceberry for their key location (it gets me every time, even after I’ve consumed a cupcake), late-​ish hours, and the best, most consistent mochi topping in the city.

NO SAMPLES!!! Are the out of their freaking minds??? Who in the heck doesn’t offer samples, especially when your frozen yogurt deviates from the traditional original and green tea? I actually asked the guy behind the counter why they choose to refuse samples, and he said they gave a lot out last week, and now they’re changing policy. WTF??? Is it really that expensive? Are they really that cheap??? Are they trying to trick people who would otherwise walk away after sampling to buy their product?
I really wanted to continue my DC frozen yogurt research, so I gave in and took a leap of faith. I got half original and half honeydew. The original was lacking, and the honeydew did not compare to Wildberry’s in the Lakewood mall. AND, they totally skimped on my raspberries. AND it was like six dollars. What a rip…
Yogurt also tends to the icy side.

Iceberry took over the used CD store that used to be here, which is a shame because the CD store used to recommend really great music for us to play at the store I worked at. Anyway, I went in here a few weeks ago because I was craving frozen yogurt. I stood behind a family of 3 that couldn’t make up their mind as to what they want. They asked for samples to try but their requests were denied, and the employee wasn’t too helpful in helping the customer narrow their choices.
I decided to get the honeydew melon flavor. The price of a small fro yo is about more or less the same price you’d pay at Tangysweet. The amount of frozen yogurt I received was pretty generous. The flavor was alright. It tastes like they took the regular flavor and put in the Japanese melon syrup that’s used in shaved ice. I’ve had the flavor of the month honeydew ice cream at Gifford’s that tasted better (I also received a sample of that to try before buying).
I took my fro yo outside because there’s only a few seats in there and it was nice outside. The consistency of the yogurt seems a bit thinner than its competitors, and it melted more quickly, but maybe that’s just me. Not really worth a revisit, especially in the summer, when the crowds are sure to be higher and a longer wait for this mediocre frozen treat.

Finally an Iceberry closer to my apt! No more long, drawn out wanderings through Reston Town Center anymore… hooooray!
Here’s all the bad parts… you’re in DC territory. you’re paying double the tax… and what’s this i see? Even an increase on price??! What the…
The good part — It still taste the same, frozen, yummy tartiness and mochi, fresh fruit goodness. It’s not for those that dislike tart, because honey, this yogurt is top notch TART. I don’t know about natural part, I don’t taste any natural ingredients in the yogurt. but it’s good and I have said, time and over time again, consistency is key… especially for chains.
For about a medium, you are paying about $ 1.57 more in DC versus the trek out Reston. (I live in the Arlington area)… is it worth it?! Yes, I will most likely resist driving out to NOVA suburbia. so yeah, call me a sucker. Quite sad, I think this is even more than what I’d normally pay for being in NYC for Pinkberry… or is it?
yeah… sad s.u.c.k.e.r…and highly addictive… That’s why there are 3 in this area already! May I add, great location too… but totally bad for my wallet.
