    Bavly is so sweet and he gave me samples of the peanut butter yogurt and the coffee soft serve. They have lot of toppings but I chose not to get any because I like the taste of the yogurt better. It's a very clean location and the service is great! I got mine to go

    Stopped by on our way home to get some frozen yogurt. It's was Fathers Day Sunday around 3pm First I thought it was closed but no, it was just empty no customers. I hesitated for a minute but then we walked in to check it out. We got the original tart and the strawberry lemonade and both tasted good. They had many topping options except fresh fruits which my son and I like the most with our frozen yogurt. We chose cookie dough and some mini chocolates. We ordered medium size it was just the right amount. Customer service was ok, could have been a bit friendlier specially we were the only customers in the store. Overall a great place to stop by, lots of outdoor seating located at the Newport Shopping Center.

    When I'm craving a thick and creamy type of yogurt, Golden Spoon is my go-to! It tastes partial ice creamy, partial yogurty to me. What's great is it's tasty as is without any toppings but it's nice to have options for the variety of topping they have. The inside of this location is quite small and it's not really inviting (as in it's literally chairs and tables) no ambiance, but there are outside tables as well for a more fresh air vibe. No view just a parking lot. My fave is vanilla :)

    What I ordered: Small Frozen Yogurt w/ Toppings - $5.50 + $1.49/ea 3/10: Mango Sunrise - non-dairy mango and passion fruit - the sample tasted good, but in the cup it tasted like lip gloss/had chemical flavors (no I didn't have any lip products on) - melted significantly faster even though it's 60 degrees out 7.75/10: Original Tart - creamy and tart, but slightly icy After seeing a Golden Spoon coming soon to Irvine, I couldn't wait and had to try the one in Newport! The server makes your cup and you get to choose from a large variety of toppings. You can sample flavors before choosing too. There are a few small tables inside, in addition to the outdoor tables throughout the plaza. Unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed with my experience. The bad taste from the mango sunrise ruined my cup :( I don't think this small cup of froyo was worth $8, especially when the yogurt was average and the toppings are the same at other cheaper froyo places. I think cookie dough lovers might enjoy Golden Spoon, but it's sadly not for me. Food: 5/10 Service: 8/10 Total: 6.5/10

    Friends and I weren't craving donuts while in Newport, so we decided on Milk & Cookies to satisfy…read moreour sweet treat cravings. You could tell the cashier was ready to go home, but I found her endearing. She was very helpful and provided descriptions of some of the cookies they had displayed. My friend got the cowboy cookie and I got the M&M cookie. We both opted out of enjoying our cookies with milk, which I guess defeats the purpose.. but the cookies were warm and tasty. They were a great size for a decent price.

The Order: * My Go-To: I highly recommend the chocolate chip cookie with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream on top. * Variety: They have every flavor of milk, ice cream, and cookies you could want. Timing & Atmosphere: * Avoid Weekends: I would not recommend coming here on a weekend. The store is tiny, and because it's right next to all the bars, the area gets crowded with a lot of drunk people. If that isn't your scene, stick to a weekday visit. * Rewards: It is quite expensive, but it's a nice treat. Plus, you can sign up with your phone number to get discounts for future visits. The Parking Situation: * Virtually Non-Existent: There is no parking lot, so you are stuck looking for small spots along the side of the road. * Accessibility: There is no designated handicap parking, so keep that in mind if you aren't prepared to walk a bit from a side street. Final Verdict: It's a perfect weekday spot for a warm dessert, just be prepared for the peninsula parking struggle!

The employee there welcomed and greeted us, and she was kind. The inside of the small shop looked clean.

The medium size was adequate between me and my partner.

The shop has been a Balboa Island staple since 1960, when it was opened by Joe "Dad" Anderson. According to local lore, a group known as the "Dew Dads" began a tradition in the 1960s of gathering early for coffee and donuts, and that tradition continues today. Some regulars even have their own hooks on the wall for their coffee mugs. The hippo sugar cookies change with the holidays. I visited around Easter, and they had Easter colors. We got a glazed donut for my son, and he loved it. I got a hippo cookie to share; it was a standard sugar cookie, but the little, colorful hippo was adorable. It's a great treat for kids of all ages. We also got a frozen banana covered in chocolate with sprinkles. My son didn't care for it, but I really enjoyed it. I appreciate that Dad's Donuts opens early, allowing visitors to sample their goodies. It felt like a classic mom-and-pop shop, and I could tell many are regulars, as the staff was on a first-name basis with some patrons. Dad's Donuts is definitely a gem on Balboa Island, and their delicious treats and charming, family-friendly atmosphere make it a must-visit.
