I haven't been to Cocomero since they first opened and I was truly blown away at how much this place has upgraded. Adorned with beautiful fig and monstera plants, it's quite welcoming and comfortable inside. A huge step up from the average frozen yogurt shop. They also offer boba and shakes and as someone who can pass on ice cream, I thought was a great add on. I see why this is such a popular spot in downtown DG. read more

Would give zero stars if I could. I asked if the Thai tea was very sweet and the cashier didn't seem to understand the question.. I asked again and just said to make it 50% sweet. Walked out with the drink and tried it, it was so disgustingly sweet it made me gag. I was just gonna leave but my husband insisted on going back in and getting it remade. He comes out with a new drink and it's just as sweet!!! If the sweetness couldn't be adjusted why didn't they just say that at the time of ordering?? I would have just ordered something else or gone somewhere else. Absolutely terrible experience and wish I had gone elsewhere for my boba fix. read more

The taro tea tasted more like coconut milk tea and was wayyyy too sweet and artificial tasting for my liking. You can't adjust the sweetness on these teas either. The boba itself doesn't have a horrible texture, but I don't think I'd recommend the teas in general. I've heard the frozen yogurt here is much better though. read more

Cocomero - Taro Milk Tea - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

It's self serve frozen yogurt - not much else to say. Machines were well stocked with flavor options and the toppings were fresh. The staff were friendly and had a good sense of humor. Bathrooms and seating could use some help. We sat outside, and were very satisfied with our visit. read more

Loved loved the Lychee Boba Tea with pearls. Would def come back to try other flavors but the lychee was very sweet and tasted just like the fruit! It's a cute cafe, lots of young kids were hanging out. Super family friendly! I think it's family owned.. but overall great experience! Can't wait to come back! read more

Low-key, clean place in downtown Downers Grove. It was empty inside on a summer weekday, so we got our frozen yogurt right away. It was delicious and had a variety of toppings. Great way to support a local business. read more

A very nice place to go to get a refreshed and enjoy the plants around you. Every station is nice and clean to choose from. The toppings are so much with fresh fruits or candies or cookies. read more

Pretty bomb Taro maybe even the best Taro milk tea I've had! Milk tea boba was just okay.

One of the best milk teas I've head, very well priced too. Only downside was that we arrived around 8:30 and they had no more coffee

It's disheartening for me to be writing this because I genuinely enjoyed my time and tea. However, today I was approached by the female worker and reprimanded for staying at their establishment for 5 hrs while studying. I'm a medical student studying for my licensing boards. And in the afternoons I come here, as a treat, to change my study environment. It was hurtful to hear the worker tell me there was a library down the street and that this wasn't a cafe. I have been coming here for over a year to get boba and study. This is my disclaimer for all those that are considering frequenting this establishment, there is a unwritten time limit, if you're not a teenager or younger this place is not welcoming of your kind. I would also recommend Te'amo and Kung Fu Tea for Boba. Poor customer service. Not for students. Fortunately, this isn't the only Cocomero location. read more

Definitely a really nice spot. The vibe is really calm and there are a few games and books out that you are welcome to use. Can come to study, chit-chat with friends, or personally to sketch and draw. My family and I have gone multiples times. We've ordered Korean dumpling, a variety of bubble teas, and I love the caramel macchiato, both hot and cold. Fro-yo is super tasty, and I can't wait to go back again soon. read more

Cozy place and the people were very chill. Tea is downright delicious and the frozen yogurt is also very good with a variety of flavors and a huge selection of toppings. The service is decent, about a 5 minute wait time to get your boba while they allow you to pay for your frozen yogurt right away. Definetly would recommend. read more

Recently I was messaged by an employee of this business regarding my review. They were completely unprofessional. read more

The froyo is okay, but I'm a bit spoiled in froyo coming from southern California where froyo reigns supreme. It seems to be a bit more expensive than what I'm used to... I got a cup with just froyo (no toppings) and it ended up being over $5. I know in other places I've been, that exact same cup would have been less than $4 (I'm really good at measuring/eye balling froyo weight). I also didn't like that they don't give you sample cups. How are you supposed to know which one you like? read more

For fro-yo, this is my go-to place. I used to drive to the location in Oswego but this place is much closer! The options for flavors aren't expansive... they have like 10ish flavors total but I actually prefer Cocomero's flavors to places like TCBY because they're not insanely sweet. Beware that there are no sample cups (the manager temporarily removed them because kids were coming in and eating tons of yogurt for free during the summer) but if you ask nicely, the employees will allow you to sample flavors before you fill up your fro-yo cup. I'm a fan of the original tart and the fruit flavors (pineapple and strawberry). It tastes like a tropical drink! There are tons of topping options including fruit, mochi, chocolate, wafers, brownies, marshmallows, sauces and candy. Prices are competitive with other fro-yo places but I prefer the flavors here way more. read more

I want to give myself 5 stars for making the greatest desert ever but I can't take all the credit. The selection of toppings was amazing. I haven't been to a place with more toppings. If you want to make the greatest desert ever then get French vanilla yogurt with 2 brownie pieces, some chocolate chips and Ghirardelli caramel. The brownies are the secret ingredient. If you want to be impress some guess at your house then just fill a couple cups full of the brownies on your way home from work. After all that, I thought the price was going to be really high but it wasn't bad at all. read more

The service is amazing. The employees are always willing to help even without being asked. 3 months ago I came in after having been in a long bored accident. My hand had scones ripped of, a very kind employee helped me put on a bandage and has remembered me every time I've been in she has remembered me. Whenever I'm in downtown here is the first place I go so pleas give them a visit and a large tip. read more

After our dinner at The Cellar Door last night..We stopped by Cocomero.... Clean place, just one patron sitting inside... I guess they have more "to go" customers. The girls at the counter were just chit chatting... Seriously? Ugh... No greeting? Uhm ok. We had to clear our throat and say... Hey, we have never been here before, can you give us an idea where to start? Lol The Ghirardelli syrup containers were leaking Our bill for our frozen yogurt was like close to $10... Will I come back? Hmmm maybe.... read more

Fun place to come in for froyo or bubble tea in downtown downers. Lots of chairs and tables but not always clean. Also the server was on the phone when we walked in and was not very attentive. read more

Gift Card Scam! They don't take there own gift cards. My mom bought me a cocomero gift card for my birthday but when we went to get yogurt they wouldn't accept it. They told me it was the wrong color. Huh? It had no expiration date. My mom was so embarrassed, the lady was flat out rude. Don't fall for this scam! read more

Love this place!! So clean inside, bright, cheery atmosphere, staff is friendly and yogurt is good. Toppings always look fresh. Coffee is also good! Highly recommend Cocomero for something different than your typical ice cream place. read more

Great selection of flavors and toppings! We love stopping for dessert after a concert in the park!

I'm new to this whole neo-froyo thing. I mean, back in the 90s we used to hit up TCBY in our acid-washed jeans and have ourselves a waffle cone, but I'd never before been to one of these fancy "DIY" places. I gotta say, I'm a fan. We stopped in on a lovely Saturday and you bet your bippy it was busy. If there's one thing I could change, it would be all of the kids milling about in a totally disorderly fashion in front of the various dispensers, but oh well, kids are kids. They weren't completely obnoxious. Anyway, we managed to check the flavors out and I made a beeline for the Red Velvet Cake because YES PLEASE. The good and bad here is that you are responsible for your own creation: if you hate it, it's your own dang fault. I added cheesecake chunks, white chocolate chips and a little vanilla drizzle to mine. Husband made his own creation with the Cake Batter flavor. We just wanted a little treat, but I'm lousy at estimating weight, so I was a bit worried we'd end up paying $$$ for our frozen concoctions, but they were a smidge over $5 with tax. Sweet. And I gotta say, my creation was delightful. It's definitely appealing to be able to choose the exact kind and amount of yogurt and toppings you want, and the flavors were great. The toppings seemed to be about half fruit/healthier stuff and half candy-related, not the hugest selection but more than adequate. The storefront is bright and cheery and while we ate outside (how about a few sidewalk tables?) it seems very comfy to eat-in if you're so inclined. I may be new to this, but you better believe we'll be back. read more

Love the bubble tea! Samples are back. They are once again giving samples, if you ask. Which is fine by me. I love coconut so I enjoyed it. Cookies and cream always a family favorite. read more

This is a really yummy yogurt place they also have sorbet for anyone who does non dairy it is really good read more

The only thing more fun than eating frozen yogurt or ice cream is being able to add your own toppings. Sure, Coldstone has been doing that for quite some time now, but I don't get a kick out of hearing the "ice cream designers" sing a song and try to make folding Oreo cookies into ice cream look cool. I also really loathe having to say "Can I have the 'love it' size?" Medium! It's medium! Anyway, Cocomero takes all of that nonsense away and leaves you with the fun of doing it all yourself. There are several frozen yogurt machines with different flavors such as New York Cheesecake, Red Velvet, French Vanilla, etc. There are cups next to the machine for you to use when you finally choose your flavor. The cups are pretty big so that you can decide how much you want. Of course, that can get a little dangerous because you'll be like "I want it all!", so pace yourself because they charge by weight. I opted for French Vanilla so that I can load up on toppings and not have the flavor of the toppings and the ice cream compete with each other. I then headed over to the toppings station and put some strawberries, blueberries, cookie dough, sprinkles, and gummy bears on my frozen yogurt. The yogurt was delicious and mixing the toppings in was fun and made the yogurt more enjoyable. The environment inside is pretty modern and hip (yes, I just said hip). I'll definitely be back, though I could do without hearing Taylor Swift sing about her 28th boyfriend as I eat my frozen yogurt. read more

Because I work in an un-airconditioned building, I booked it over here earlier this week during the heat wave. It was a much needed time for me to cool me down as well as to satisfy my sweet tooth. Now, let me preface this by saying I'm really not much of a dessert or ice cream type of person (unlike my husband), but I could still truly appreciate my experience at Cocomero because of the different options. And if I had to pick a place to go for a summer stop, I prefer this over Red Mango and other froyo chains for the fact that I (not the person behind the counter) can be the one controlling how much of each flavor of yogurt and how much of each topping I want to get. One can really decide how healthy to make the combo and how much to spend (you're charged at the end, depending on the weight of it). I had a some of the non-fat choices with tart pomegranate and creamy French Vanilla with a ton of juicy berries, sweet mango, crunchy chopped nuts and little squirt of chocolate syrup. But my friend went for the more indulgent options of low-fat dutch froyo with brownie and cookie crumble for her toppings. It's a cute and cozy atmosphere to chill out in too because of the spinning white tables, varied seating with couches and chairs, and bright green accents. read more

This place is NOT closed. It was only closed for a couple months. I'm assuming it was for the winter season. I've been coming here for the past three years and have never received bad service. I tried to apply to work here a year or two ago but the owner never contacted me about an application (since they were out that day), but the new management is very nice. They seem very passionate about keeping the place clean and making it a friendly environment. These workers deserve so much respect. I highly recommend coming here. I will always choose this place over Menchie's any day. read more

Regular pour over coffee was o.k. nice atmosphere. Try the bubble tea! Try that chocolate kiss at busy bees bakery just down the street, bring yourself here for a coffee. read more

The yogurt here is decent - the toppings OK, but the way they have it laid out invites chaos. Inevitably there is always a scrum to get which flavor yogurt - no line and then another scrum at the toppings bar...it just leads to a lot of hostility and bad feelings - thinking one person 'cut in' or jumped the line, etc...so, it makes it really an Ayn Rand style desert experience. Maybe it attracts a different clientele. I dunno. I just loathe going here. But my kids love it. Not recommended. read more

pretty awesome...though I preferred munchies better, this is an convenient location right across from many cute, petite boutiques, centrally located in Downers Grove downtown and $.47 an ounce is a fair price! ;) read more

Cocomero - Awesome! Delicious yogurt - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

Excellent fro yo option in the downtown area. I am a big fan of the original tart flavor with lots of fruits and brownies :) realistically, this establishment is a competitor in the fro-yo market but what distinguishes them is coffee. They brew Intelligentsia with a pour over option - reasonably progressive for the burbs. Although my "barista" didn't look super knowledgable in coffee, I give them credit for carrying and selling high quality Chicago roasted beans. Additionally, I did notice that the store was very clean. Always a plus. read more

I saw "Intelligentsia" on their window and was really excited...until I tasted their version. Bleechhhh. Skip their coffee/espresso, it's horrible. Intelligentsia is delicious when done correctly, this place needs to go back to school and learn how to do that. Wildly disappointing. If I hadn't taken it to go I would've asked for my money back. The tea I got for my friend wasn't even drinkable. The guy checking me out was polite but didn't know what they could do/not do when I asked which teas could be iced. The woman, who I believe was the owner, was nice enough but needs to train her people. read more

I was also messaged by an employee that works here, told me I was no longer welcome in the store! Lol Completely unprofessional, I called the store owner! hopefully new ownership means new employees too! read more

Better than Pinkberry & Red Mango! We have tried a lot of frozen yoghurt places where ever we lived and this one is in our top 2! (top seat is still Berrypop in Houston). Great flavors, lots of choices. Only addition could be more fruit topping choices. We love it! read more

Waited in line with no menus or prices visible. When I asked what flavors of bubble tea they had the cashier said "there's a menu at the end of the bar." I quickly picked two and told her the flavors I wanted, she said "you order at the register" but now she had just sent me behind 7 more people!!! Then the drinks were NOT bubble tea--they were thick smoothies with very hard, either old or not properly prepared tapioca at the bottom. Paid over $8, my daughter and I took a mouthful of each and threw them in the trash. A waste of time and money for poor service and no treats. I miss the old bubble tea place, they were polite and actually knew what bubble tea was. Should have gotten a refund but didn't feel like waiting behind another 7 people again. My goodness. People must come here due to lack of options.. read more

Called and they were open till 10 PM this Tuesday night. Great selection of yogurts and sorbets. Lots of toppings. Clean comfortable seating areas. I live 10 minutes away and just discovered this place. They gave both my son and I sample cups and were so friendly. I saw prior comments about bad service, but it must be under new ownership. I would definitely give this place a try. I want to come here again and try the bubble tea! read more
