    Over the years this establishment has gone down in cleanliness. Two guys stand and sit behind the counter as people walk in and walk out, after seeing how dirty the frozen yogurt or how melted the mess is. How do you stay open? I was at a 16 Handles in NJ yesterday and the service stations were clean and no residue of old melted yogurt. As I'm leaving the guy behind the counter asked if I needed a tasting cup or if I needed anything. I said how dirty the place was and he said it's because people serve themselves and leave a mess. And that he couldn't continuously clean up. But at-least try!!!

    Not one of my favorite 16 handles locations. They have all the flavors but it is always a bit dirty. I feel like it's hard to keep these places clean! The yogurt is great though and staff are really kind! A bit overpriced but that's NYC

    I wanted to try 16 handles due to a stellar review from a friend. I got the small cup and got cookie dough, peanut butter, strawberry, Graham, and yogurt classic. The cookie dough tasted okay but honestly having the physical form of cookie dough in vanilla ice cream tastes better. The peanut butter didn't taste like peanut butter; more like chocolate. The yogurt tasted like Greek yogurt, which I was not that excited about but I just didn't know. The strawberry and graham cracker ice cream was good. I don't think the ice cream or frozen yogurt was that great. I wish it was more creamy or thick. It melted pretty quickly and it was very expensive too. I spent 12 and some change even though this was essentially the size of 2 or 3 at best scoops at a ice cream shop.

    Delicious fro yo. That's the review. Lol ik but seriously. Delicious fro yo at practically every location. Wonderful staff. Extremely clean and follow COVID protocols. Can't think of anything else you'd want in a fro yo shop. Price goes by weight here, so be easy on the toppings unless money is not an object or you're like me and just can't fathom putting a price on yummy fro yo! Lol This fro yo is not like pink berry, it's on the sweeter side, so it definitely taste and feels more like dessert then a healthy snack, but life is short! Enjoy it to the fullest! Overall, I'd highly recommend this and almost any 16 handles location in NYC!

    This is my daughters favorite place to have some nice ice cream with many many toppings. They are open during COVID. so if you have a craving for sweets this is your place to go

    Good topping with good flavor ice cream

    I went here after the crazing for frozen yogurt was strong!!! They offered a good selection of toppings and flavors. While they don't have a lot of toppings the toppings they do have are amazing and tasty!! Graham cracker icecream is the winner along with chocolate crunch topping.The yogurt itself is a little runny instead of silky which takes away from it a bit. The girl that works there looks like she hates her job when asking for a sample she hands you a cup and just doesn't care. They started mopping while I was eating icecream I mean cmon? The smell of cleaning solution while you're eating not cool. Staff members needs an attitude adjustment. Don't clean the floors while people are eating. Just common curtesy. They accept cash credit or you can use level up where you scan you're phone! Pretty cool. Would definitely try 16 handles again just probably not this location.

    This is a great location. There aren't really any other good choices for yogurt even close to walking distance, which makes this place even more valuable. I guess hipsters don't really like yogurt, as this place is usually pretty empty. This is really the only good dessert spot I like in this area, aside from the 10 minute or so walk down to OddFellows for some really excellent ice cream. If you are trying to keep it a bit lighter though, this is your best bet around here. Read any other review from any other 16 Handles in NY to find out more. They're all the same now.

    Always the best place to get desert after you tour around the Williamsburg neighborhood. Cutie interior so pretty

    Our cashier was very nice to us. She greeted us on arrival and asked us if we would like sample cups. That's the first time I've ever been offered sample cups so she rocks just for offering it without me having to ask. We tried numerous flavors here and they were very satisfying. I was a huge fan of the cheesecake and peanut butter flavor. My daughter were a fan of the fudge flavor yogurt. I am a little disappointed that 3 flavors I really wanted to try, were out and not being refilled. I wanted to try the Salted caramel but there wasn't anymore, also cookies and cream and red velvet. I was actually expecting all those wonderful flavors to be empty, because seriously, who doesn't love salted caramel and the other 2 flavors? I will be returning again and hopefully with those flavors being fully stocked. My 4 stars are based on customer service and decent flavors. I will be returning again for more visits especially since our nice cashier signed me up for a VIP rewards card.
