16 Handles Upper East Side

I visited this place hoping to indulge in the salted caramel froyo that I loved at another location, but unfortunately, they didn't have that flavor. While it’s not their fault, I was a bit disappointed. My cup cost $5, which was quite filling and a decent price for NYC. They had a wide variety of fun toppings to choose from. It was a Friday night, and there was only one girl working. She handled everything well, but she did seem a bit stressed. The seating area is spacious, which is a nice bonus.

They have 16 flavor options and all the machines were working. The variety of flavors weren't super interesting but they had the basics. The service was friendly.The interior has a cool design, the other patrons were all middle schoolers. They could have more fresh fruit toppings and wet walnuts

I got the two vegan options available: chocolate and raspberry. And they paired perfectly! I added a sprinkle of all different kinds of toppings and sat down in their warmed AC with comfortable wall cushions to enjoy this treat. When I went, it was $0.82 per oz so I’d recommend the cookie dough and any of the airy crunchy options. Lay off the fruits and gummies since those are the heaviest.

There are 16 different flavors and a dozen topping to try. Always a great treat.

16handles and this location will always be my go to.
