So I've visited this Menchie's maybe just a handful of times since they opened about a year ago. Really happy they finally opened one up closer to my house, just more options for frozen yogurt which is perhaps my favorite dessert. What I have noticed is they never ever seem too busy, I'm always able to pop in and grab yogurt really fast and get out.
Once you have been to one Menchie's you've seen them all, they tend to all look alike. What separates the La Mesa location from the rest is how clean they keep the place. Every time I've visited here, the machines are super clean, the toppings don't look like kids have stuck hands all over them and the syrup isn't all over the floor. They also provide ample sample cups for you to just grab, no hiding behind the counter. Not really much more you can ask from in a yogurt place, prices are on par with all the other yogurt chains, nothing really different there. I do like that their rewards program is phone # based, so I don't have to carry a card around or use a stupid app. Customer service is always top notch, like I said fast and efficient here. The only downside to this place is the parking lot gets crazy here, especially now since they opened the Starbucks. But a little walking can't hurt, burn some of those froyo calories.
