Oopa Yogurt Bar sets itself apart by carrying more than just frozen yogurt. They offer frozen Greek yogurt, smoothies, tea, coffee and even health supplements. The atmosphere is bright and cheery, and the staff is friendly and willing to share their knowledge of the products. Reading through the menu I was surprised to find flavors I’d never seen before, including Cherry Limeade. I mixed this with Strawberries and Cream and headed over to the toppings bar. I like to keep mine in the same family as the flavors of my fro-yo, so I piled on fresh fruit, gummy bears, mochi and white chocolate chips. Despite not having marshmallow syrup (yet), which is probably my favorite topping, the multitude of other garnishes (more than 41!) made up for it. I sat down to enjoy my dessert while upbeat Middle Eastern music played over the speakers. My first spoonful was loaded with flavor and texture, and the Cherry Limeade/Strawberries and Cream turned out to be ingenious! I look forward to returning soon for their smoothies and blended teas. Oopa!
