Tasty and pricey. I'd rate it higher but I think they are over pricing it because of location. Not a fan of the by weight. I can never get out of there under $10. With that said it does taste good. The price is the price. Parking is tight but just have to luck up and find one. read more

This place does not disappoint! You have plenty of frozen yogurt flavors and toppings to choose from. The staff is friendly and patient. I did find it odd that when i called the store, they immediately told you what time they closed. Not a big deal, just odd. Definitely check it out! read more

Decent Fro-yo with lots of toppings and flavors (as several commenters have mentioned). I highly recommend the cookie dough! Yum! One caveat, $. My cup cost over $10. So, if you earn minimum or are on a budget, be wary! read more

Flavors and topping were good but the yogurt was not cold enough. It comes out of the machine like cold soup. Not sure if the machine are set to be cold enough... read more

Vegan fro yo!! It's great. So hard to find vegan soft serve! The vanilla is very tasty. I topped it with fresh fruit, chopped almonds and peanuts and coconut. read more

Such a cool froyo place in downtown Stamford! Lots of froyo flavors, all super good. The ambiance is young and trendy and super colorful, so cute. This place is great to hang out, tons of seating indoor and outdoor. The price per ounce is a little steep but the froyo and topping were good. Tons of fresh topping options, awesome summer treat! read more

Froyo is one of my favorite treats! It can easily satisfy a sweet tooth without being too indulgent. This 16 Handles location has a wide variety of flavors and toppings. There are 3 different cup sizes to fill to your liking. The kind man working allowed me to sample a few flavors, and I decided on the cheesecake and cookies and cream. They had cookie dough from DO in NYC as an option for toppings, so I had some of the DO Reese's Pieces dough as well! The only issue with this location would be that it's hard to find a parking spot close by due to all of the restaurants around! read more

YUMMY YUMMY IN MY TUMMY! Is what I sing when I pass 16 Handles on the way to my spiritual regression therapist. I don't even need to be accessing my inner child through Zorn's rose quartz to tell you that 16 handles makes me feel like a kid again. For a vegan like me, it's hard to find ice cream that satisfies my sweet tooth. I wish Yelp would let me give the Stamford 16 handles the stars it deserves, so here are Nick P's stars for my favorite desert: **************** I lobe 16 Handles! read more

Ugh, I love 16 Handles way too much. I almost wish it wasn't so close to the subway, because I'm terrible at resisting temptation, and every time I'm near the Bedford L (which is often), I have to get me some delicious froyo. I'm taking off one star because I only like one flavor of their froyo (Euro Tart). The other flavors are, for the most part, way too sweet and bland for me. Euro Tart, however, is just right. Not too sweet, not too icy, with a slight tang. It's the perfect foundation for building the ultimate froyo treat. Which brings me to my favorite thing about 16 Handles... their toppings bar. It's the best I've seen to date. I'm not really sure where to start, because just thinking about it whips me into a frenzy. They have EVERYTHING. There's the usual suspects, like fruit (yawn), cereal, sprinkles, juice pearls. But there's crazy fun stuff, too, like rainbow cookies, ridiculously creamy cheesecake bites, frosted animal crackers and banana chips foster (seasonal only, I fear). And lastly, something I don't fully understand, but can't get enough of: hazelnut crunch. It's like Nutella sauce with tons of little crunchies in it. It truly defies description and has to be experienced to be believed. One minor annoyance - they used to let you swirl your own samples, but now you have to ask an employee to give you a taste. It's awkward. Dislike. I'm assuming it's because people were being jerks and overfilling their sample cups? Still annoying. read more

If you are worried about finding a place for frozen yogurt, this is your place. It is clean and has so many delicious options!

This place has a lot of flavor options and toppings, which was really exciting, but I experienced a few downsides. One being when I got two of the three flavors I wanted the consistency that came out was slimy and gooey almost looking like a soup. So I moved onto to finding new flavors that looked more like frozen yogurt. Then I bee lined to my favorite toppings. Sadly the strawberries looked like they were smooshed into a jam and the brownie bites got morphed into crust chunks into the corners of the container. The redeeming factor was the Nutella, of which I gladly substituted for. The employees were great and like I said, the flavor options are wonderful but looks like the toppings had seen better days. read more

I finally came here with my boyfriend and our daughter a few weeks ago. The staff is very attentive and helpful. My favorite flavor is the birthday cake and my daughter LOVES chocolate love affair. My boyfriend likes all of the flavors and prefers to put a ridiculous amount of toppings on his froyo. Whatever floats his boat. I think I have been here quite a few times after picking up my daughter from daycare. This is definitely becoming our regular spot. read more

I am a self proclaimed self serve frozen yogurt junkie. One of my most frequent Yelp searches is 'self serve yogurt' in hopes a new place has popped up. 16 Handles opening did not disappointment. Delicious flavors run from peanut butter to cookies and cream to cake batter, along with the standards of chocolate, vanilla, and tart. Topping bar has always looked clean and has a bunch of fresh fruit along with the less healthy, more yummy, options like cookie dough and cheesecake bites. My only wish is they had a better seating arrangement. It gets very crowded and the long bench of seats makes it tricky to sit and chat. read more

I am so sorry Pinkberry, but you have met your match. Although they have locations in NYC, my boyfriend brought me here for the first time the first night of me living with him. Being a devoted Pinkberry fan I was hesitant, but tried it anyway, and you know what? I'm glad I did !! The variety of flavors and toppings are so awesome, not to mention low in calories (the froyo at least lol). My favorites are the cheesecake, graham cracker and salted caramel. I like the fact that I can serve myself my own toppings. It's always clean and it really helps with the experience that the employees are so nice. We've been here so many times since that some of them even recognize us and we have some small talk. If you're ever in Stamford, or happen to walk by one in NYC, don't pass this place up. You WILL regret it if you do !! read more

Great dessert spot. It's fun drowning a spoonful of ice cream in a full cup of hot fudge.

Love this place. Great selections of flavors and toppings. The place is always very clean and the "happy hour" on Wednesdays is a great deal. Girls at the cashier are pleasant. Nothing to complain about here! read more

I love these guys! So many delicious frozen flavor options. They even have dairy free options! And if you are a cookie dough fan like myself, they have many different types of cookie dough options! prepare to enjoy friends!! read more

Love that they have dairy-free options, DF is hard to find! Great topping selection and arguably the best froyo I've had. I will definitely be going back read more

I came in after dinner and when I asked for a sample the very nice manager walked over with the tiny paper sample cup and asked which I wanted to try. At that point he was rubbing his face with the same hand the sample cup was in. So my sample cup was basically 1/8" next to his oily face. At that point I realized I did not want a sample of this hand/face oils mixed with froyo. My husband made his froyo cup, and this same male employee is now itching and rubbing his head/hat+hair above the toppings bar. I mean gross man. Then he rings my husband at the register, handles cash, then does it all again for another customer. This place needs a visit from the health department. Seriously. Gross man. read more

Great place! Definitely prefer this place over Dairy Queen in Stamford. Highly recommend for delicious yogurt!

Seriously my favorite frozen yogurt place in the world. Such amazing service, kind people, and a great selection of flavors & toppings.

Small, clean and efficient. I was in and out in less than 5 minutes and the staff were incredibly friendly. This is a great option if you're looking for some frozen yogurt and their flavor options are delicious! The location can be a tricky, however. Parking is hard to find and it's hidden in that little substreet section on Bedford. read more

Standard go by weight yogurt shop, they had some really good selection for topping, some nice seasonal yogurts. It was yummy, give it a try! read more

VEGANS LOVE THIS PLACE! I got so happy when I realized that 16 Handles was vegan friendly. They typically have 2 vegan flavors of soft serve (yo soy vanilla is AMAZING) and numerous vegan toppings! Everything is labeled and clean. They also run promotions fairly regularly such as fill your cup up for 5 dollars. Highly recommended!! read more

This is my favorite fro-yo place. Its clean and everyone who works there is nice. The only down side is they lock the back door so if you park out back you have to walk around. Sometimes there's a ton of teenagers hanging out in the front area too- But Id walk miles for this fro yo if I had to so its worth it. Very very good! read more

Best ice cream ever! There are so many choices of flavors, and the toppings are extraordinary. Good prices, and a friendly staff make it the best place in its area. In addition, the flavors are always changing, based on the season. In October my fav is the pumpkin apple spiced yogurt with some chocolate mixed in. I especially enjoy the hot chocolate flavored in the winter, with the mint chocolate as a base. Perhaps my favorite is the Summer special which is the fruit explosion mixed with caramel. Great ice cream place in a convenient location! 5 stars! read more

Love it in the city and love it here! Staff is always incredibly friendly and the whole place was very clean.

The froyo and toppings selections are superb. I highly recommend a blueberry-chocolate froyo mix, topped with some hot fudge and sprinkles. Staff is friendly and courteous, however they normally make remarks about my height, which I am used to being as tall as I am. My worry is that a self-conscious tall person will feel uncomfortable in there and not want to go back. One day I hope to live in a world where anyone who is over 6'3" is looked at like a normal human being. Until that day comes, 4 stars. read more

Way bigger on the inside and it is reasonably priced. They have fruits and mochi!

Good icecream a little more melted than I prefer. The actual store needs to be revamped or cleaned better. Didn't stay and eat because of this. read more

Stopped in this afternoon. It was so nice and clean. The fruit looked fresh and had a great variety of flavors. Some of the toppings though.. You can tell they buy a cheaper brand. For fruit & yogurt, this is a great place! read more

The selection can be inconsistent at times. The toppings on the other hand are always creative and plentiful. Fun atmosphere for every age.

My co-workers and I recently stumbled upon this bright and bubbly little frozen yogurt joint. If the colors flashing across the ceiling didn't bring you in, it may have been the bumping music....The flavors were...ok. I had black raspberry and it didn't seem to have too much flavor. The vanilla was yummy, though. The toppings bar was good too. Lots to choose from, but I wish it was refreshed. Those brownie bites, though?? HolyMolyDelicious. read more

Best ice cream ever! A lot of good ice cream flavors and toppings. Also it's a cool place to hang out with your friends!!

We stumbled across 16 Handles on the way back from dinner, and we're glad we did. Great flavors of create-your-own-concoction frozen yogurt, including the seasonal "Fist Pumpkin" (took me forever to figure it out). Cost is by the pound, so be mindful on your toppings and how tightly you pack your yogurt in the cup. read more

Been there a few times and its always good.....better than other fro-yo places, etc. but had to review because the Watermelon non-dairy sorbet might be the best dessert that I have ever had. Wow....that was like the best italian/water ice that you will ever have. Super watermelon-y and creamy.....wow...so good... read more

Been here 2 times and I love it!! I been having the pecan flavor it's so tasty. The place looks clean and the device it's good. Love coming here for dessert. read more

It's all in the concept, I guess. They offer many flavors of soft serve frozen yogurt that you dispense, add toppings to, and get weighed. It's fun, but it's also something I used to do at the Bonanza and my college cafeteria. You are sure to have a cup that weighs more than you think so it gets expensive. Your kids are going to load the cup up. The quality of the fro-yo is good. I especially enjoy the red velvet cake. It's worth a visit for desert after eating at one of the local restaurants or stopping by for a treat if you live in the area/ read more

Awesome selection of froyo and toppings! Had the original with mochi and chocolate crunch it was amazing.

Favorite flavor: Mango, pomegranate, pineapple, and coconut. Same go with the toppings!
