16 Handles Frozen Yogurt Shop Is Opening in Brookline

A small chain of self-serve frozen yogurt shops is coming to the Boston area, with its first store opening in Brookline this fall.

RestaurantNews.com is reporting that 16 Handles plans to open on Beacon Street in Coolidge Corner in November, with the New York-based chain apparently looking to expand into other parts of the Boston area as well. 16 Handles is known in part for their lounge-style atmosphere along with their extensive toppings bar, with the shops offering 16 Kosher-certified flavors of self-serve frozen yogurt. Currently, there are approximately 25 locations of the chain, with most being in and around New York City.

[January 28, 2013 update: Eater Boston has confirmed that the new 16 Handles in Brookline has opened.]

The address for this new frozen yogurt shop in Coolidge Corner is: 16 Handles, 1309 Beacon Street, Brookline, MA, 02446. Their website can be found at http://www.16handles.com/
