If your wanting a vegan desert. This is the only place in Indianapolis with Dairy free ice cream / yogurt that I have found so far. There is only one choice in flavor. But good news they change the flavor every sunday! and there are plenty of toppings to choose from. Not all or vegan but ask the lovely staff and they'll point you in the right direction.

Lots of toppings for frozen yogurt from candies to fruits and nuts. It's a very clean spot, with super cute decorations (all from IKEA, might I add), and couches and magazines to encourage hanging out. In addition to the frozen yogurt, they have bubble tea (I had chai flavor) and smoothies. Yum!
It's located in the strip mall by Red Habanero and Jasmine Thai, kind of behind 96th St Steakburgers. -

Though their selection is much less than a chain like Yogi, OrangeLeaf, Red Mango, or PinkBerry (creative names, guys), I would drive an additional ten minutes for Yogokiss over one of the two OrangeLeafs near me (in Noblesville/Fishers area).
The lady who runs the shop is very friendly. I can tell it's a family run business (which I always try to support over chains). They also make homemade waffle sandwiches, bubble tea and coffee. Plus, it has an array of healthy and vegan options the chain stores don't.
They usually have original (slightly sour, yogurt taste), taro, chocolate, vanilla bean, soy and coconut yogurt. They're all very good, interesting flavors. They also switch up flavors every weekend, I believe.
I had taro and coconut with pomegranate seeds, apples and granola. It was great! And they're all relatively healthy, as far as yogurts go.
I've also tried their Nutella banana and S'mores waffle sandwiches. S'mores is great, but the Nutella banana is awesome! Plus you get a free coffee when you buy a waffle sandwich.
Cute little shop, too. -

I was craving some bubble tea after lunch and went to yogokiss. They have limited bubble tea flavors probably because they are mainly a frozen yogurt place. I had to ordered black bubble tea (ice blended type) since they don't have jasmine milk tea and I decided it was way too sweet for me and like the rating, I've tasted better ones in Indy.

Probably my favorite yogi place in the city and I have to say thanks to Liz, for the introduction. I just ate a yummy white chocolate taro, waffle sundae! A fav among myself and my crew :)

Don't really care for the decor, but I doubt I was their demographic when they designed the place. So I order and go. -

Yogokiss is fantastic for frozen yogurt on the north side of Indy. Healthy AND cheap!
They always have different flavors every day that they'll let you try, and the fruit they use is always awesomely fresh.
The atmosphere in Yogokiss is great, too. Decorated very modernly, it's got a hipster feel, but it's casual and laid back. Try you some Yogokiss! You won't be disappointed! -

Bubble tea. It was yummy but more expensive and smaller than another location not too much farther away. However, they had the flavors I've been wanting to try that the other location is frequently out of.
I had the yogurt a few years ago and remember it being very good. -

Frozen yogurt is my thing, as those close to me know. Well, one of my myriad things, but my "dessert thing." Yogokiss was my first love in Indianapolis in this category and it still holds down my top spot.
When Red Mango came into town and TCBY was no longer Yogokiss's primary competition, I was a little worried. I had heard many things about that superchain and after going there, I did enjoy what they offered. But in terms of toppings, variety, and atmosphere, the Yogo knows what's up. You could even rock the bubble tea if you didn't feel in a froyo mood. My favorite combinations are coconut, Andes Mints, and blueberries. You wouldn't think it would work, but it does! Your standard candy toppings are here (Reese's, sprinkles, all that classic goodness) and there, it mingles with some exciting new friends like taro, pomegranate, and green tea powder.
The most exciting part to me is that as a person who's slowly leaning into veganism, they have a soy yogurt option...in soft serve, no less. It's caramel every time I've been there and it does a body good.
There's a nice little floating fruit wall in the back as well, so hey, individuality!
It's in a strip mall with a solid Mexican restaurant and near a Thai place as well, so you'll be able to make a complete afternoon or evening meal out of it. Enjoy, kids! -

Decent place for some fro yo goodness. The inside with all the pink and hearts looked like Valentines Day vomited all over the place....tres funky. It was my first time visiting this past wknd since I wanted to celebrate National Fro Yo Day on Saturday and I felt like I was the only one who had never been there before or knew someone working there since they looked at me like I was all foreign or something.
The fro yo was good but didn't seem soft serve and thicker and more solid than what I am used to. I think I've gotten used to the whole self serve concept where I can get as much as I want and add any number of toppings where as at Yogokiss they have a few different sizes and you can get up to three toppings free then you have to pay for additional toppings. They have an awesome selection though from decadent to fruity toppings so you can actually get some vitamins in for the day. I love the touch of having all the latest gossip mas there as well so I can eat and see what T Swift is up to. -

Yogokiss is another frozen yogurt spot to check out on the north side. Jeez why are all the yogurt spot up north? Somebody please open a shop closer to my hood (south side), I promise I will be a devoted customer!
Yogokiss is the first fro-yo spot I tried in Indy 2-3 years ago. I didn't think much of it because it wasn't that great at the that moment. I love the decor of the place though, really adorable and cute. Their flavor have definitely improved a lot since I first tried it. They play a lot with their flavors changing it every 2-3 weeks or so. One time I got the chance to try their taro flavor, I love love taro so to me it was pure bliss. When I went back a week later it was gone, guess it's not a popular flavor but I wish they would bring it back. They have the biggest variety of toppings out of all the frozen yogurt shop I tried in Indy, and it's usually pretty fresh.
My only complaint about this place is the original flavor, sometimes it's very bland and sour. I love the tart original flavor but at Yogokiss it's just straight up sour sometimes. I usually have to ask for a sample to see if they got their original flavor right that day. They have a really great thing going on here and deserve a visit from all you fro-yo lovers out there. The texture of their yogurt is just wonderful...creamy and perfectly frozen. A great treat even on a cold winter day! -

Might go 3.5. Please note, this review is strictly based on the bubble tea.
The wife and I were looking for something to crave our sweet tooth, and to crave it, we wanted bubble tea. Not too many places in Noblesville got it, so we searched yelp and came up with this place.
The place itself is set in a strip mall (a very classy strip mall:-P). The wife and I walked in, and saw a very chic, aesthetically pleasing little joint. Of course they had frozen yogurt, which is why I'm sure most people come here. Plenty of toppings, and very well presented. If i was a frozen yogurt kind of guy, I might come here, but the wife and I were set on getting bubble tea.
They had both milk teas, and fruit blends. Not sure what the quality would be like, we opted to get a Taro bubble tea. I had heard the girl behind the register describe the taste of "taro" as being "nutty." Yeah, definitely would not use that term to describe Taro.
An older lady (who we imagine to be the owner) made our bubble tea, and it rocked. $3.50 or something for one, the wife and I thought about ordering a second, but were content with just the one.
Fun fact- the backwall of this place is covered with heart shape post it notes that you can write on. Look for Dana and Ruben, and you will have seen greatness (ok, that was a bit much).

Yogokiss definitely beats it's northern competitors like Huddles out of the water with their atmosphere as well as the quality of their yogurt. I prefer their yogurt to other places in Indy because it is a bit more tart (like yogurt should be), and they have plenty of healthy and not-so-healthy fixings to wet your appetite. I also miss the wall where you can stick up post-it notes from when you were there. It is cute and the workers for the most part are really friendly. Cali eats with Hoosier charm. LOVE

My husband and his coworkers introduced me to this spot 2 weeks ago. I've been twice since.
The quality of the toppings and healthfulness of the selection of toppings will keep me coming back - it will definitely replace ColdStone Creamery as my choice of cold goodies for the summer.
My favorite is the chocolate with raspberry, almond and chocolate piece toppings.

High quality froyo in a fun decor. Comfy red couches are the perfect place to eat your creation. Can't go wrong if you are in the mood for frozen yogurt!

This place is so cute! I love their yogurt and the fruit to top it with is always really good and really fresh. If you've never had this type of frozen yogurt before, it may not be exactly what you were expecting because it's not as sweet. I love the delicate flavor and this is my favorite yogurt place around.

The original tart style frozen yogurt in Indianapolis - this has a nice tang to it and has very fresh toppings. I also like that they have a soy option for vegans and they also have lots of great unique flavor options like Taro!
I liked that it was one price for up to three toppings and also really enjoyed how the fruit looked good - I would have eaten it on its own! The atmosphere is totally girly with lots of fashion magazines and pink accents with white furniture. Such a fun place to go, grab a yogurt and flip through the latest OK or US Weekly!Listed in: Frozen Yogurt in Indianapolis

Wow.
Never had YogoKiss until tonight. Absolutely, positively delicious. My husband had the original flavor with pineapple, watermelon, and strawberry and gobbled it all down. I had the taro flavor with watermelon, strawberry, and kiwi. Oooooooh my god the taro flavor is AMAZING. It is sweet but very light. Fantastic. I was excited to see an Asian/pacific flavor and it was fantastic! -

I have been requesting regular infusions of the soy vanilla fro-yo from yogokiss as I recover from a major surgery. As a vegan who rarely does dessert, I think I would probably choose it over the painkillers.

I've been going to Yogokiss for at least 3 years now. I always get the original yogurt with strawberries, mango/blue berries (whichever one is better that day/season), and mochi (white chewy rice-cakes)!
I've also tried the soy flavored froyo, taro, and everything else that have. They're not tart and tangy like the original froyo. If you want something sweeter, definitely get a sample of the flavors before choosing the froyo (yes, you can do that! at all of the froyo places! tip from a froyo lover)
They had a cutesy interior design. Lots of real customer pink post-it notes on all over the walls. Cute furniture and good magazines, although, when I go there, I usually focus on my froyo and my company!
Lots of teenagers hang out there. -

I'm pretty sure this is the only "pure" fro-yo in indianapolis.
just three flavors with pinkberry prices. it would have cost less at a yogurtland for what you get, but who cares? it's the only game in town, and it just happens to be five minutes from my hotel.

I'm from California and have had alot of frozen yogurt. Pinkberry, Yogurtland, Golden Spoons, Red Mango, etc...There are many styles/recipes of frozen yogurt and it really depends on the individual persons mood. Do you like smooth, tart, sweet, creamy? I enjoy all of these types at different times.
I came across this sweet shop during a quick visiting to IN and fell in love with the place. Most impressed with flavors and fresh toppings. I can taste the love from the Fro-yo recipe, each perfectly cut fruit toppings and the home town support given by the customers. It literally is written on the walls. Frozen yogurt chains can learn alittle something from this mom and pop shop. Not everything has to be bigger and better...small and quaint is just as delicious. -

My first experience with true "fro-yo" and I was definitely impressed with the quality of the frozen novelty. The fruit was fresh and definitely not canned or frozen at any point. Had pineapple, strawberries and bananas on, since these would all be in season (pineapple's never out of season as long as it is freshly flown in.) I would have to say pineapple gives the yogurt a zing that it needs.
The strawberry-banana smoothie to go wasn't really too adventurous and had way too much ice - probably something I would not recommend.
However, the yogurt is cold enough that mixing the fruit and yogurt together in a separate bowl would have been just as satisfying as the days as a kid when you made "ice scream soup". You remember, dontcha? You feverishly stirred and stirred your store-brand vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce* together till you got somewhat of a thick shake consistency. Then you'd scream bloody murder as you got a cold ache/brain freeze from trying to sip it through a straw. (I miss grade school sometimes.)
This is a very good venture for the north side for it's location will definitely lend to plenty of patrons in the surrounding apartments and neighborhoods. However, with Indy's "I'm unhealthy and I like it" attitude, and Hoosiers famous unwillingness to try new things (or at least more familiar things) people may confuse this with another twist on ice cream. But this fro-yo stuff if much more than that. Next, I will try the brand new Red Mango in Broad Ripple. Until I can compare them tho, I recommend this place.
*MMMM... drinking chocolate sauce straight from the bottle! Or eating Nestle Quik powder straight out the can with a spoon!Listed in: Cool Off

The healthy alternative to an ice-cream shop. Yogo Kiss offers healthy frozen yogurt and an array of toppings. Here is your chance to be bad if you want to, but don't worry they have tons of fresh fruit and nuts for the health food junkie!!!
Yogo Kiss is super cute inside and offers current magazines and comfy couches for its patrons. -

Three flavors of frozen yogurt (original, chocolate, strawberry) and one dairy-free/vegan flavor made from Silk (caramel) on the day I went.
Tons of incredible toppings. The normal candy toppings and fruit, plus things like kiwi, melon, pear, white peaches, etc.
Transitioning from vegetarian to vegan, and with no desire anymore for ice cream or dairy frozen anything, I got the caramel with graham crackers and cherries. It was awesome!! I was so happy to find a vegan dessert in lil ol' Indianapolis, it wouldn't have taken much to impress me, granted. But it was really, really good - the caramel flavor was perfect. In fact my friend, who ordered original (plain frozen yogurt) and got blue, black, and strawberries, liked mine better.
We both noticed that this isn't like TCBY or other commercial frozen yogurt, but more like real yogurt, frozen. So, it's less sweet and with the little tang or real yogurt - very light and refreshing and just so good with fruit.
A small, plenty for me, is $2.50 alone or $3.95 with up to three toppings. Located right next to Jasmine Thai restaurant on the south side of 96th. Free WiFi and magazines for browsing. Cute, bright, simple, and clean.
Highly recommended - Indy is lucky to have this little gem! Just wish is wasn't stuck up there on 96th St. I hate strip malls. -

My wife and I live in the area and have seen Yogokiss from the road. We never ventured in as we usually go to Huddles for our yogurt fun.
I had no idea how wrong I had been in choosing my yogurt dining.
Yogokiss tackles Huddles and never looks back.
From their amazing selection of add-ins to the incredibly super staff, this place is the absolute best in the area! Their seating is comfortable and the color scheme makes you feel right at home.
I just finished my cup of banana yogurt from Yogokiss and am already looking forward to getting back there.
I haven't done a strict comparison, but Yogokiss seems to be cheaper then Huddles.
Treat yourself right, go to Yogokiss! -

Frozen Yogurt with plenty of topping choices.
Yogokiss has a fun decorative style indoors. Unfortunately, they only have 3 yogurt flavors (I think they rotate), but their choices of toppings more than make up for the deficiency. From candy bars to fresh fruits, from chopped nuts to chocolate brownies, there is a topping for everyone.
Price was a bit expensive, but not unreasonably so. Small yogurts with 3-toppings for two people was around $9. -

Unlike others, I've not yet been Pinkberried - but, I keep hoping as it sounds and looks great.
I guess Yogokiss is as close as it gets to Pinkberry in these parts. Not being a big fan of overly sweetened, more fake-than-real tasting ice cream, I found Yogokiss a refreshing change of pace. I personally love the plain flavor, but then I'm kinda' simple like that. I fully expected and wanted to have the flavor and tang of yogurt, enhanced only by whatever toppings I chose. And that's precisely what I got! I tried a fruit, grape nuts and rice balls combo on my swirl. I loved that the toppings were not skimpy at all and the gummy sweetness of the rice balls mixed with the creamy yogurt and crunchy grape nuts provided a nice experiment in texture. On a funny note, my hubby decided on plain yogurt with all the chocolate bits he could get - yea, he's a health nut!!!
Until Pinkberry, there's Yogokiss - maybe they'll even feature a green tea flavor? -

I love that I can walk to this place and get some tangy frozen yogurt with fresh fruits. The interior is fun and interesting, and the price is pretty good. I've also had the bubble tea which I thought was very good (and I'm extremely excited that I have bubble tea moments from my front door). I'm by no means a bubble tea expert, but I enjoyed it so there ya go.

Pluses - It is nice that they charge one price for up to three toppings. Maybe it's a psychological thing, but I don't like to have a disincentive to getting more toppings. I got a small original with raspberry, blackberry and craisins. They have a ton of fruit options here, which is awesome, as well as cool non-fresh fruit items like craisins. It also has all the standards: fruity pebbles, various chocolate items, gummy bears, etc... The atmosphere is also pretty nice here, with comfy couches and a nice bathroom.
Minuses - The frozen yogurt itself is my main minus here. For one, the flavor options were lacking. I got original, and the other options were chocolate, caramel and taro. I'm used to having vanilla, mango and pom options, or things like that. My main complaint, however, is the texture of the yogurt. It was simply too cold. Too frozen. It was more like frozen ice than the creamy texture that frozen yogurt should be. It was good with the fruit, but alone I didn't really want to eat it. -

When one of my friend's (literally) shoved some Pinkberry in my mouth, I thought, bleah, frozen yogurt. When the second spoonful went in, I thought, hm, I wouldn't mind a third. Peer pressure is a gateway drug - luckily a froyo habit is legal.
Yogokiss is close to my 'hood, so I love coming here as often as I can! In the summer, it can get close to once a week. As much as I love this place, they get 4 stars because I prefer froyo being sold by weight - then you can control your toppings/froyo ratio. That being said, Yogokiss does it right and gives you a large portion of toppings. I always get the small with two toppings. They have lots of fresh fruit, and the traditional crazy candy bar/breakfast cereal options. My favorite is boba/bubble/tapioca balls. I'm a HUGE bubble tea fan, and their boba is always done right - freshly made and nice and chewy.
This place is (I think) run by an Asian woman who keeps it Asian (my favorite yogurt flavor is taro). When I went to a froyo place on Mass Ave, they only had white people flavors. Boo.
They have little tables outside when the weather is nice, if the hot green and pink decor is not to your liking. -

I'm becoming quite a connoisseur when it comes to frozen yogurt parlors recently.
This place can easily be compared to Pinkberry, probably the largest and most popular frozen yogurt chain. It is personally my favorite. Many of my conclusions are based around how Yogokiss compares to Pinkberry.
Toppings: Yogokiss features every topping you can get an Pinkberry, and then possibly more. Also, you start out by getting three toppings which other stores do not offer.
Yogurt: I did NOT like the frozen yogurt here. The texture was off, and the flavor wasn't tangy enough. This is a yogurt place. You gotta get that part right.
Decor: Oy vey. This place is trying too hard, but doesn't get much right. There is too much going on here. They have magazines available on the wall. Post it notes everywhere. Some flower decals purchased from Ikea. Couches with some bland slip covers on them. Most of it just comes across as cheap, and not very well pulled off.
Actually, I think the decor is representative of Yogokiss as a whole. They seem to think they know what a frozen yogurt store should be, and even think they can add their ideas. However, they generally fall short.
I'd like to try Redmango in the area and see how it compares. -

I recently moved from Indiana and have found nothing that compares to the yogurt from Yogokiss. I know I will never find a flavor that approximates the perfect balance of sweet and tart of Yogokiss' original flavor. I SO miss the delicate taste of Taro and Yogokiss' soy flavors and I haven't even mentioned the great variety of fresh and healthy toppings. I've also been spoiled by the thick, fruity, custom-blended smoothies. Everything here tastes thin, watery and flavorless by comparison. Everything on their menu, from the bubble tea to the home made waffle topping is flavorful, fresh and delicious. I now understand that Yogokiss are true "yogurt artists". I miss you Yogokiss!

A for effort of decorations and topping selection, but the flavor and freshness was lacking. Yogokiss yogurt is textured like a custard, which some prefer, but I don't like. There was no perceptible tang. I asked if they made the yogurt in store from milk or if they used a mix and added water, but the server did not know. They had Natural, Chocolate, and Taro flavors when I visited. Taro flavor, really.
