Yo-Chi

Yo-Chi sits on Carlisle Street at Balaclava, near St Kilda in Melbourne's bayside south-east. A popular self-serve frozen yoghurt spot, it lets you build your own creation — choosing your yoghurt flavours and piling on a huge range of toppings — which makes it a fun, customisable treat that's become a firm favourite in the area.

The appeal is that interactive, make-it-your-own experience combined with quality frozen yoghurt, ideal for a treat on a warm day, after a meal or as a fun outing with friends or family. On the lively Carlisle Street strip near St Kilda, it's perfectly placed for a sweet stop.

With a 4.7 rating from more than 700 reviews, it's clearly hitting the mark. Flavours, toppings, opening hours and pricing change, and a popular spot gets busy in the evenings and on weekends, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a casual frozen-yoghurt treat, you can usually just drop in, build your own and see why it's so well rated near St Kilda.
