Yolo Frozen Yogurt

My favourite fro-​yo place in Asheville, and one of the best frozen yogurt stores I have ever been too. Their rotating flavours and friendly staff are the reason why I love this place so much. They always have non-​dairy options, always something fruity, something chocolaty and always something creamy for the real ice cream lovers.
I LOVE the pineapple sorbet! It always sells out very quickly because it is DELICIOUS. Their stable Brazilian Tart is also fantastic and fat-​free. Another favourite is the nutella, it’s light but still holds the rich nutella flavour.
I always look forward to the new flavour combinations made in house.
Highly recommend!

We’ve tried three or four other frozen yogurt shops in town, but continue to return to YoLo. Their staff is always very friendly but not overbearing. The flavours are always consistent, with the Brazilian Tart being my favourite. They have an awesome selection of toppings, with fruit, nuts, cereal, and candy. They have lots of neat sauces, like marshmallow and hit fudge. Additionally they have bacon bits and sea salt, which I adore and haven’t seen anywhere else. I only wish they had peanut butter sauce! Prices are reasonable, and location isn’t too far out of town.

Yolo has an awesome selection of frozen yogurt flavors, friendly staff, and awesome toppings. Last time I went in, I was trying to be a good girl and was super surprised when I went to the register and my frozen yogurt only cost $ 1.89. Awesome prices/​weight. Also, they host some awesome artwork by students at Carolina Day School, awesome to see a local business supporting the arts!

My biggest problem with ice cream parlors is that I always feel like I am being judged for what I’m ordering. Yes I want the chocolate dipped waffle cone and hot fudge and whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles and rainbow sprinkles and a cherry on top, no make it three, and why don’t we go ahead and add another scoop while we’re at it.
YoLo helps me indulge my sugar addiction without the prying eyes of a server.
It’s a very simple system:
Grab a cup, open a tap, pour out delicious dairy goodness. However you shouldn’t stop there, add what ever toppings you want in any amount you want, no one will judge you.
Cookie crumbles? Yes please. Gummy bears? I’ll take a whole sleuth (look it up). Having frozen yogurt for breakfast? Add Lucky Charms and Captain Crunch. Need a complete breakfast? There’s fruit and berries too. Add nuts for protein. Top with whipped cream and chocolate sauce and caramel and sprinkles and a cherry, no make it three, finish with sour gummy worms (Trust me on the gummy worms, they go great with the unflavored yogurt).
Then just weigh and pay. You’re done, except the best part, eating your custom creation.
Of course you’re going to want seconds, because you only live once.

Great yogurt flavored, all locally made and labeled organic and vegan. The customer service was amazing! I had Butterbeer and Salted Caramel Pretzel. SO good. We sat outside and there is a bike rack for parking your ride:)

This is a novel idea for fro yo, sort of like cafeteria soft serve. You choose either a waffle cone cup or plain cup and walk through a line with about a dozen flavors and several topping stations. At the end your cup is weighed and you are charged by the ounce.
The yogurt was pretty good, maybe not the best but I loved that you could try as many flavors as you wanted. Each variety was paired with another so you could get the swirl. Bonus points for cleanliness and the fact that hand sanitizer was at the beginning and end of the line — why is that feature not a staple at all salad bars, buffets, and other self serve food lines?

Great place. Friendly staff. I most definitely recommend the vanilla bean frozen yogurt but not the coconut one. There was a lot of topping to choose from.

This is absolutely the best build your own yogurt place I’ve been to. They have enough flavors for everyone and plenty of toppings to customize your frozen treat.
They use local ingredients when possible and even had toppings supplied by local vendors. So everything is as fresh as can be and it really pays off.
My husband and I both chose the salted caramel pretzel yogurt. I also added some peanut butter yogurt to mine. Chocolate toppings and nuts seemed to be the best option for this yogurt and it tasted amazing.
The girl working behind the counter was very pleasant and personable and was willing to answer questions and help in any way possible.
Overall a pleasant experience. We will be returning for sure!

My favorite for sure in Asheville and no question why it’s the best in WNC!
They use local produce and have changing and seasonal flavors, like Pumpkin right now!
The toppings are plentiful and also partly local!
They recycle the cups and spoons and have drinks too!
They have a great bonus system too!
If somebody like the person comments that a lactose intolerant person got sick after eating yogurt it truly hurts! What do people think yogurt is made out of?

I was in town to visit and saw the sign. We just had to go. My friend tried the flavors but wasn’t a fan. I liked the use of local products and almond or soy milk in the yogurt and was therefore, a fan. I liked that there were local cookies to top off my yogurt.

Ordinary yogurt place except they had some exotic flavors that places like this usually don’t do, its a 4 to me and the exotic flavors kick it to a 5

I was in downtown Asheville and I really wanted to get self serve frozen yogurt and I found Yolo on my phone. It was a bit out of the way and they just had an ok selection of flavors to choose from. However, they have an extensive selection toppings. I am not sure if it was worth the drive though.

Yolo makes me wonder if they’ll capitalize on the You Only Live Once thing going on with Yolo (have some frozen yogurt, yolo! ;)). Kidding aside, I’m not really sure how to rate Yolo. On the one hand, it has a tremendous amount of toppings to select from, and very tasty yogurt (the coconut flavor was crazy good). The down side is my gf is lactose intolerant and started to get sick after we had our yogurt, which made me wonder, what are you mixing in your yogurt, yolo?
Ignoring everything but flavor and staff, I thoroughly enjoyed this place almost as much, if not more than the locations in Atlanta, where I reside, or San Francisco, where I visit often. True, they didn’t have mango chunks here but that might be my only gripe.
Staff was very friendly, flavors were very tasty, causing you to smile involuntarily and the price was cheap.
Plenty of seating to go around inside and some seating outside as well. Plenty of parking to boot.

I’ve had a lot of froyo in my time with Yogurtland in the west coast being the gold standard. The froyo here is very bad in comparison. The flavors are very fake and the consistency is too soft and icy for my taste. Also, the flavor selection is very limited. Do yourself a favor and skip froyo in Asheville and go to Ultimate Ice Cream instead.

I was in Asheville on vacation and being a HUGE frozen yogurt fan, I was so glad to find Yolo!
I’ve tried many yogurt places over the years and Yolo hit the spot for me. I liked that it was self serve and you could pick your own toppings (which included a good variety of local granola and vegan cookies).
The yogurt itself was good — not too watery and there were non-​fat options available.
All in all, I would say Yolo is a great place to grab a good dessert and hang out for a bit and enjoy some tasty food!

Tried this for the first time today. Very delicious frozen yogurt and the price was reasonable. Employee was helpful and gave me sample cups to try the flavors. Don’t have anything bad to say so I give it 5 stars. Yum.

Tasty frozen yogurt, with a good mix of sweet and tart flavors. The toppings selection was pretty good with a couple of locally sourced toppings. It was a bit light on the fresh toppings though.
The price was pretty reasonable. If you haven’t been to a self-​serve frozen yogurt place like this before: you pay by the total weight of yogurt and toppings you get. If you don’t get carried away with the various flavors and toppings you can easily get a nice treat for $ 2 or so. They have little sample cups so you can try things out without committing to buying any.
Shares the same parking lot as Luella’s.
