AngelBerry Review

I’m sure that like us there are times when you would like to take your kids somewhere fun to eat. Invariably we end up in an unhealthy fast food takeaway – and as for sweet treats, healthy options are few and far between. So when Practically Perfect Mums were invited to AngelBerry Frozen Yogurt Factory for the launch of their Bubblegum Campaign,  we were keen to see whether a low-fat sweet treat would leave the children impressed .

AngelBerry Frozen Yoghurt Factory, located at Imperial Retail Park, Hartcliffe Way, Bristol is a new concept for this area. The colourful, yet simple decor and uncluttered layout make it appealing for adults and children alike.baby being fed by her sister

We were greeted by a cheerful and helpful assistant who showed us around the flavours and gave us some taster pots to decide on our favourites. This was particularly appealing to my one year old!

At our visit they had just added Pistachio, Caramel and Sponge Cake and the charity flavour Bubblegum. During Half-Term week all proceeds from the sale of Bubblegum flavour went to Wallace and Gromit’s Grand Appeal.

Our children couldn’t decide on a favourite flavour (the mums thought chocolate and caramel were particularly delicious) but they liked mango, bubblegum and strawberry a lot. After choosing a few flavours there was even more fun – adding toppings, and boy were there a lot of them, talk about children’s heaven.

I am a particular fan of offering children choice and the chance to try things for themselves. This was the perfect opportunity for children to practice using the pumps, experiment with flavours and create something beautiful.frozen yoghurt

The frozen yoghurt is priced according to weight at £1.50 per 100g with the average tub costing between £2 and £3.  I’d suggest giving children the smaller sized tub or they could get eyes bigger than their belly syndrome.

My 3 year old is interested in exploring food with her hands at the moment and this was no exception.

We can certainly say that the yoghurt went down well with our kids and my 1 year old had a chance to practice her new word – ‘Finished’. They certainly didn’t notice that it was a healthy option and as a huge ice-cream fan myself this is a great low-fat alternative for me.

AngelBerry has only been open for one month but is proving very popular. AngelBerry are continually coming up with new ideas for toppings and flavours and are open to customer suggestions. I think AngelBerry would be the perfect venue for a children’s party, maybe in conjunction with the  Cinema or Hengrove Water Park.

If you fancy taking the children somewhere different for a treat, AngelBerry is certainly worth a visit. Don’t be put off by the cold, you can always drink coffee while the children eat the yoghurt and smoothies and milkshakes are also available. I’ll certainly be coming back.

Hopefully they will expand soon and open more venues. We think Portishead would be the perfect location.
