Pinkberry will finally debut next week
Hillcrest has waited patiently for over a year for the Pinkberry phenomenon to open on the SE corner of Fourth and Robinson (the former home of P.B. Home & Garden). During the many months of delay, several other frozen yogurt shops have popped up around the neighborhood — including Freddo Dulce, the Golden Spoon, Tutti Frutti, Yog-art and Capri Yogurt. Will the big pink one now take the throne?
