Icrave

Cheese cake flavored fro-​yo, can’t get any better. Ice cream flavors minus the extra fat, no complaints at all. And I love the fact that it’s self service.

These guys are superb at marketing. Their signs couldn’t be any brighter. The first thing I noticed when I walked in is their brightly colored pew and stools! It’s a pretty cool idea, and it made the seating really comfortable, yet simple.
Unfortunately, I can’t give this place more than a 3 out of 5 stars. I really don’t like their original flavor– it’s too sweet in my opinion. However, they’ve got enough toppings to make one go INSANE! I mean that in a good way– a tribute to their creativity; there are things that they’ve made INTO toppings that I didn’t think were even topping-​able! Seriously, who thinks up of ANIMAL COOKIES! That was very unique and DELICIOUS!
BUT what really drove down the rating for this place was the terrible customer service. These people didn’t care for being friendly to the customers. It’s more like «get in, get out, GO! Don’t steal my shit.» I swear these workers are paid on commission or something. It’s as if they have to sell a certain ounces of yogurt and that’s gotta correlate with the ounces of toppings & yogurt that they’ve utilized. And the prices are much higher now… even higher than most other places. NOPE I’m not coming back!

My opinion might change in the future, but I didn’t quiet enjoy Icrave. I prefer Red Mango by a hundred fold. When I first came in, I saw two of the ladies behind the counter bickering on the phone and with friends — that’s normal. So I asked one of the ladies if I could test out some of the flavors and she gives me the nastiest look. ever. So she just gives me one tester and begins talking to her friend across again. Rude much?
Anyways, the yogurt was not superb and not horrible. I like the cake mix thingy and red velvet flavor. I forgot what other flavor I threw in but it was some coffee flavor. It was T-​E-​R-​R-​I-​B-​L-​E. I can’t handle coffee and solid milk very well. (I like the taste of frapps) I don’t recommend that coffee-​like flavor. I also poured in some of the watermelon flavor. It tasted too sweet and artificial for my liking. Surprisingly, there was a good selection of toppings and yogurt. It’s 52 cents for an ounce, which is not all that bad. Usually, I pay about 39 – 49 cents an ounce at the regular froyo shops I go to.
I would’ve given Icrave 4 stars, but after the lady gave me some attitude, I thus give 3 stars.

We were looking for some frozen yogurt while in the area, and this place was right around the corner. It ended up being a great choice! Compared to the other froyo places in the area, ICrave is definitely a step up.
The décor is really cool, there are different cup sizes, and there are a multitude of self-​serve options. There are a variety of delicious toppings, and the price is by weight and clearly labeled on a sign. I can’t remember the exact price, but I do remember it being very reasonable. The yogurt tasted AMAZING! The employees were also very nice and courteous, and we will definitely be returning next time we’re in the area!

This is a great spot for frozen yogurt, especially considering the complete lack of other options in this area (Red Mango is worthless now, I give them another year before they go under).
The extremely bright interior makes it feel like a poor man’s Flavaboom. But it’s nice and fitting for this type of place. They are extremely careful (and by that I mean stingy and watching like a hawk to make sure you don’t steal some additional ones) with their samples, which is pretty annoying, but everything I did try was really good.
They have 14 flavors, but they try to make it seem like they have 21 by displaying a third flavor above each pair of pumps, which is just a swirl of the two flavors (lame). A couple of the flavors I tried were a little too watery, but then some of the others were really really good. I got the Frogurt Peanut Butter and the Dulce De Leche, which were both very creamy and just as good as 16 Handles and the other best self serve places. They have a very decent selection of toppings too.
It’s nice and cheap here too — 49 cents per ounce, and I noticed a bunch of signs for random promotions they have, like getting 15% off or something on certain nights, or when you come in with a movie stub from the UA theater across the street.
This will definitely be my go-​to place now when I happen to be in the downtown Brooklyn area and want something lighter for dessert.

Fruit toppings were nice and fresh. Lots of variety in junky (rainbow cookies, choc chip cookie dough, nuts, oreo cookie, etc) toppings too.
However the actual yogurt is not very good. I have never had such a bad original «tart» froyo. Tart means a little sour, right? Mine was just sweet. Yuck!

This place has upped the cleanliness. Significantly. Just wanted to let yall know.

Yes, it’s ANOTHER self-​serve fro-​yo establishment with a multitude of toppings. It is also delicious and oddly cheap.
Overall, I’d much rather come here than to Red Mango down the street because when I’m going for fro-​yo, what I’m really saying to myself is «I want ice cream but know I will hate myself if I eat Haagen Dazs» and ICrave’s product is closer to ice cream.

Flavors were not very exciting and the toppings were boring.
Worst part about this place was their opaque, non-​transparent pricing scheme and hidden fees for shake versus straight froyo. Very, very disappointing. Stick with Red Mango or 16 Handles.
Boo.

This will be my demise! Delicious frozen yogurt just steps away from me at work? Yes I am in trouble now! Their tangy original flavor is amazing and there are so many options in toppings and flavors to choose from (I just wish they had mochi). Everything is fresh and I will definitely need to make sure I don’t overdo it here (though, thank goodness for looser fall clothing!)

I have been searching for a healthy alternative to ice cream, and finally found it! Unfortunately, once I put brownie toppings and chocolate fudge on top, I have defeated my purpose. Tons of different yogurt flavors to choose from and toppings galore. A little pricey, but worth it if you have a sweet-​tooth.

Flavors galore! I love this serve-​yourself yogurt trend. I can make my froYo how I like it, with the toppings I want, and decide how much of each I need. And this place has a crazy selection of toppings, and yogurts. I enjoyed all the flavors I tried… and I can’t wait to go back.

ICrave just seemed to pop out of nowhere in my hood. Typical froyo place with all the standard flavors plus a few exotics. I had my boring chocolate as always but did sample another flavor. With my chocolate I had some fresh cut strawberries, mango and hot fudge. Mmm hot fudge. While it was certainly enjoyable, it’s not the best froyo I’ve ever had. I like mine thicker.
FYI the flashy storefront is a little too Vegas for my liking. It stands out like a straight man in the Castro… or maybe I should say it stands out like a gay man in Texas? Whatever rocks your boat.

The frozen yogurt, or should I say «FroYo» is unbelieveably tasty! You have so many options. You also serve yourself but be aware, don’t be too greedy as the more you put on, the more you pay and most of the time, you will not eat it all!

The frozen yogurt here is delicious! After I left the move theater right across the street, this place immediately caught my eye! I colorful, yet sleek/​white interior is what brought me inside! I was happy to notice that this was a self serve spot, and even happier to see the variety of flavors they offered! I ended up getting cake batter and cookies n cream flavored froyo, with oreo and sprinkles for a topping. It was great.
The only reason I didnt give this 5 stars is b/​c of the way the topping bar is set up. Wile putting sprinkles on my froyo, many fell off of the spoon and onto the chocolate sprinkles directly in front of it, and on the counter. I of course cleaned it up, but in order to prevent spilling toppings your hand must be pretty steady. Also, I really wish this were closer to my school. I attend Brooklyn Tech HS, so that would be quite a walk to get to after school. Maybe in the springtime and other nice days…
I was impressed by how clean the place was, maybe its because I went at a time where practically no one was there. Either way, this is a froyo spot I’ll definitely be coming back to! No more taking the train all the way to St. Marks for Sixteen Handles!

I didn’t care much for the flavors here, only two that I liked. I did like the hot caramel and hot fudge.
The yogurt was a little runny for my taste but overall pretty good.

Meh. It’s flashy and shiny and new, but it’s just not all that. The flavors were just ok: I had Vanilla, PB and Cake Batter with Vanilla being my favorite. The topping bar was a hot mess. Literally hot and messy. Maybe they are still getting their shit together, but I wasn’t that impressed. We’ll see how long it lasts before I give it another shot.

Ice Cream move over, there is a new king in town.
Although I’m tempted to dive right in to the delicious product and stellar service, let’s start at the décor because appearance is key.
From the awesome LED sign, to the sparkling floor, colorful banquets, and white lacquer walls, ICrave clearly sets itself apart from all other frozen yogurt chains. Additionally, I’d like to add that there seems to always be a staff member mopping, or wiping down the place to keep it perfectly clean. This is one of the only Brooklyn bathrooms I actually felt comfortable using, which I certainly can’t say other yogurt shops.
With 14 individual flavors and swirls that make new flavors, ICrave yogurt offers an exciting array of 21 mouth watering flavors to choose from. I highly recommend the Chocolate peanut butter cup flavor (a mix of peanut butter and chocolate– both awesome on their own as well). Another flavor that left a memorable impression was the Dulce de leche– heavenly!
Offering nondairy and no sugar added options as well, this place will satisfy even the pickiest customer (me).
Last but not least (it’s the most!), the toppings are literally TOP. From fresh fruit to every candy, chocolate and nut you can imagine, this place has got it all. And have no fear about mixing (allergies are safe here), each topping is stored in an individual container with a lid on top at all times to keep things fresh, clean and separate.
ICrave is a true gem in Brooklyn, and the lovely cashier told me many more locations are opening soon in NYC and beyond. I can’t wait!
–Happy froyo girl

I can’t say there’s anything terrible unique about this place, but it certainly holds it’s own against 16 Handles, and handles the self-​serve thing better than nearby Red Mango.
I admit I could barely taste the yogurt under the mountain of toppings I added, but it seemed pretty good. The topping selection is good and even has hot fudge and caramel. (Why do NONE of these places offer whipped cream!!!)
Supposedly there will also be smoothies, but that wasn’t up and running yet. I imagine it’ll be like a make-​your-​own McFlurry?
Hopefully this place can survive in this cursed location!
