Menchies

Location: Bloor & Bathurst
Type of Food: Frozen Yogurt & yummy toppings
Favourite Flavour: Tiramisu froyo + marshmallows, coconut shavings, lychee bubbles and sour soothers. 

Address: 511 Bloor Street West (Click here for Google Map)




Ummmm...so this is possibly my favourite place ever! I was introduced to this 'god-sent' froyo spot in the Annex early last year when mother nature decided to grace us with that summer-like weather in April (apologies for not posting since then). I wish this place existed when I lived just steps away from Bloor and Bathurst.

So what makes this place so spectacular? First of all, Menchies does a really great job branding themselves with their pink, purple, and green colour scheme which is directly applied to their wall decorations and accessories. These colours not only add a funky element to the spot, but it transfers its lively energy to its customers.  Okay, maybe I'm being a little too artistic and analytical, but honestly who wouldn't be in a good mood in a spot where for a few minutes of your time, you can go back to your childhood memories of eating ice cream and sprinkles.

Usually the staff is really great, I've shared many a story with the cashiers who are always very welcoming and friendly! So in conclusion ... I highly recommend this spot for:
1) dates (you can sit down and eat or walk around the annex - weather permitting)
2) anyone who is just wandering Bloor street with a sweet tooth, or
3) anyone who wants to go crazy flavour mixing

(ps. you don't need to go crazy with flavour mixing, theres nothing wrong with a good 'ol vanilla flavoured dessert!)
