Products/Services:
All-natural frozen yogurts and waffles. Frozen yogurt comes in original, green tea or on shaved ice.
Environment/Ambiance:
I haven't visited all of Red Mango's branches so I am just speaking for Trinoma's. But basing on the photos from Red Mango Philippines' official website, all their branches looks spacious enough except for the one in Trinoma, where Red Mango is just situated in the middle, in front of Toys R Us, more like a booth actually. There are so many people lining up so needless to say, the space is not enough for their customers. However, heard that they have a new store in Trinoma located at the Ground Floor of TriNoma's Open Park (Beside Max's), so I think that would be spacious enough for their ever loyal customers. Better check it out!
Staff: It's good that they take orders beforehand and jot it down in their order sheets, just like in other fast food chains. That way, it lessens traffic already in the cashier area. They also serve waters and you can get one from their roving staff.
Price:
Frozen Yogurt's price depends on what type of yogurt you want, and of course, the size, below is their most updated price list.
Original
S (4oz)-Php 80
M (6oz)- Php 115
L (8oz)- Php 150
Family -Php 220
Green Tea
S (4oz)-Php 85
M (6oz)- Php 120
L (8oz)- Php 155
Family -Php 225
On Shaved Ice (with 3 toppings)
S (4oz)-Php 125
Price per topping is Php 20.00. Compared to Frutti Froyo, Red Mango has less toppings to choose from. And yes, it's not a buffet of toppings where you can enjoy the feeling of selecting and putting your favorite toppings in your Yogurt. Some of Red Mango's toppings include Mango, Kiwi, Blueberry, crushed Graham, sliced Almonds, Banana, Melon, raisins, cornflakes, grapes, granola, etc.
Remarks: If I were to compare Frutti Froyo from Red Mango, of course I would go for the former. Red Mango, I think, is more catered to people who are really into the natural taste of yogurt, which is sour, and majority of kids won't actually dig. Frutti Froyo, on the other hand, has a wide array of flavored yogurt selection, from the original taste of yogurt up to the vanilla and chocolate flavor, which can be best enjoyed by kids and kids at heart. If you are on a limited budget, the safest way to go is Red Mango because you have the control over the price you are going to pay, unlike with Frutti Froyo, price of your Froyo will come as a surprise depending on the weight of your treat. Nevertheless, if you are someone who loves to concoct his/her own Froyo with more than 20 toppings to choose from (like me ^_^), plus the surprise that comes with it, then you know where to go.
But as what was mentioned above, Red Mango doesn't only have Frozen Yogurts, they also serve mouthwatering waffles which comes in Blueberries n' Cream and Banana Almond. Looks delectable enough so they're also a must try at the price of Php 85.

I still prefer Red Mango's yogurt over other fro yos. I like the green tea one. I saw the Red Mango space beside Giligan's and it's still under construction.
I am wondering if their green tea tastes good. Was it?
frutti froyo is the best :P
been wanting to try this.. curious din ako if their waffles taste good.
I would also like to try their waffles. I love Starbucks' waffles kase. =D
