39 Below FroYo

Eh, it’s alright. Nothing compared to 16 Handles or Red Mango. Call me a snob, but the styrofoam cups, melted Reeses bits on display, and stale cookie toppings weren’t exactly what i’d deem appealing factors. Staff was extremely friendly though, so +1.

It had been a very long time since I’d been in 39 Below. Today is a great surprise visit. The menu is much more diverse, interesting and should bring folks in for meals and yogurt treats.
Today I had a Shake… Marshmallow Yogurt Peanut Butter an enjoyable post-​lunch dessert.
Carolyn made me feel valued.
This is very different from an older attitude… thanks for the treat!

Outstanding. Always friendly and inviting. And awesome flavors. Carolyn is always helpful and I love that she’s expanded the menu.
Really creative combinations and flavors. Big fan here.

Nice staff and kid friendly games!!! The Nutella flavor was a hit with us! We will definitely be back

Cute little place downtown. I love the atmosphere, it’s a pretty chic place to hang out on your laptop. The frozen yogurt is amazing. I just wish they had better coffee, like an espresso machine.

A month or two ago, I purchased a Groupon for 39 Below FroYo. Since it was expiring soon, I decided to check this place out. There was one woman working and she was extremely friendly and helpful. I ordered the Club Breakfast Sandwich and the French Toast. Both were really good and worth the menu price. All of the menu items are reasonable; you can get a sandwich for $ 4.50. While waiting, the frozen yogurt caught my eye, so I had to have some at $ 0.49/oz. I was very pleased with the experience and will definitely visit again.

Solid froyo. I stick with chocolate or peanut butter because I tried a fruit flavor once and wasn’t wowed. The toppings are good, the cut fruit is fresh.
The woman who is usually working is really friendly. She always asks how my day has been and it sounds like she is actually curious. It has always been clean inside. I have noticed it has been busier which makes me happy. Haven’t tried the grilled cheese but I’m curious.

Came in for frozen yogurt. I had been craving it for weeks. Had this place bookmarked for some time. The frozen yogurt was just okay. The mint was my favorite of the flavors. They were out of several toppings including basics like sprinkles, chocolate chips, Oreos. A customer behind me made a comment about how thick and clumpy the hot fudge was. The cashier commented that it was what was left for the day. If any food items aren’t presentable they should be removed from the serving line. Will come back to try their breakfast. I’ve heard good things.

Fiancé and I were craving frozen yogurt. Our go to is OrangeLeaf in Columbus (RedMango or PinkBerry or YogurtLand in our native California… we like frozen yogurt) but we had the day off and were feeling adventurous. We had walked by for the Moonlight Market but it was freezing so we didn’t indulge. However this time we went in the early afternoon. Parking was easy enough for us because someone pulled out as we drove down Gay Street. They even left 30 minutes in the meter. Seeing as how there were no other spots I could see how it gets frustrating to park.
The Yogurt: Good. Not great but good. I tried chocolate and cake batter. I sampled the mint and it was really good, but very strong and I knew if I put it in my cup everything would taste like mint and I wasn’t in the mood for that.
The Toppings: Meh. Not very exciting. A small open bar that was a few berries and lots of crushed up other foods (cookies, graham crackers, full reeses). I like how OrangeLeaf does mini-​foods because then it actually gets in your ice cream. Putting a full cookie or graham cracker in my yogurt just has me eating cold cookies and graham crackers.
Also, they had toppings in white containers but many were out (basics like sprinkles and chocolate chips) They were also out of hot fudge and hot caramel. The woman said they were out of these but it was only 3. I hope they don’t run out of food this early.
The Price: 49 cents an ounce. Consistent with everywhere else in Columbus.
So, in summary, 3 stars. I would go back if I was in the area, but I won’t make the trip.

Love this local beauty. Try the grilled cheese sandwich for lunch too. This place seems fairly new. Owner operates it. She is great. Place is creating a breakfast and lunch menu. I had a great lunch!

So much more than Fro-​Yo. They have awesome breakfast and now they have a cocoa/​hot apple cider bar and grilled cheese and soup! Check their Facebook because there’s always something new happening. Carolyn is awesome and this place is a definite must for the downtown/​Gay St. lunchers.

Love this place! They rotate flavors so there’s always something new to try! My favorite was the nutella frozen yogurt. They also have pumpkin spice foyo in the fall.
Staff is very friendly and helpful
The only negative is parking can be tricky downtown.

Neat little place — though they specialize in Froyo, it reminds you of «Central Perk» and your local coffee shops of yesteryear. I tried a raspberry pomegranate Froyo and it was KILLER — a tad tart so I wouldn’t eat too much of it, but SO tasty! I’m only a block away, so this is a walking-​distance treat I plan to allow myself as often as possible.
Goodbye diet!

Great tasting fro yo. The staff is super nice. They have gluten free options and even accommodated me by getting me an un glutenized topping since the one on the counter were next to the gluten stuff. Will def visit again when I come back to visit Ohio.

Honestly, not bad for frozen yogurt. It’s not the BESTEST FROYO EVER but it’s definitely serviceable. +1 star for being a cute shop on Gay Street.

Pretty good froyo. Price was cheaper than a lot of frozen yogurt places that I am used to. They had red velvet, which was a delicious flavor. In terms of options/​selection, I found the yogurt flavor and toppings both a bit lacking. I’ve honest just had better selections. The yogurt itself was creamy and delicious, though!
Plus points for having the sample cups already out for you; it’s often annoying to have to ask every time you want to try something. The worker was talking to her friend for most of the time we were in, so it was a little less personable. But otherwise, good froyo, and nice outdoor seating for the summer!

It’s tasty yogurt. Period. Their chocolate yogurt is the best I have ever put in my mouth. I regret not getting it myself, but stole some of my son’s. I had original tart.
Wish they had more toppings that were targeted towards the flavors they have. The toppings seemed sort of random in relation to the froyo flavors.
Love the look inside — they even have a few board games if you eat in… and a patio out front!

39 Below has stepped it up!
The last time I was here, I was underwhelmed. The yogurt was melty, the staff were non-​existent, and the hours and phone number weren’t updated.
I may have been a bit harsh in my original review, but when you see the other froyo shops in town closing — it’s a reason for concern. I don’t want to see 39 Below close — I love having a yogurt shop so close to me!
Well fast forward to today, and there were many noticed improvements. The lady working was upbeat and helpful — welcoming in the line of guests. Everybody else must have noticed the improvements too because the store was crowded tonight!
The lady was quick to point out that she had just run out of a particular flavor. I wasn’t interested in it, but I appreciated her helpfulness. I stuck with original tart, but unlike last time — this time it was delicious!
I also noticed a fully-​stocked toppings bar, with crazy delicious things like oatmeal cream pies, candy bars, sauces, and fresh fruit. I stuck with fruit, but I think anybody would be happy with their options.
The shop was bustling, the yogurt was good, the staff was friendly, and all their hours were updated. Literally every complaint I had was reconciled. Way to go, 39 Below!

Swiss cake roll pieces with cake batter froyo…
I should stay away, but now that’s impossible…
