Pinkberry Is Opening on Newbury Street in Boston's Back Bay

A national chain of frozen yogurt shops that is getting ready to open its first New England location on the South Shore is also going to be opening a location in the Back Bay of Boston.

According to their website, Pinkberry will be opening on Newbury Street, following on the heels of a pending opening at the Derby Street Shoppes in Hingham later this month. The Newbury Street shop will be located between Gloucester Street and Hereford Street (near Bagel Rising and Emack & Bolio's Ice Cream).

Pinkberry is known for their wide variety of frozen yogurts, including such seasonal options as mango, pomegranate, and watermelon. Frozen yogurts come in a cup or a cone (with the cone being known as the One Handed Pinkberry), and a number of different toppings are available. Pinkberry also sells fruit parfaits and smoothies.
