Duane Reade Debuts Fro-Yo Bar and Freezee Station
Duane Reade, the largest drug store chain in New York City, recently announced new offerings at its 52nd and Broadway location including a new frozen yogurt bar, a slurpee-esque Freezee station, its Good & Delish oatmeal station, self-serve juice/smoothie offerings and the Sushi Station for fresh custom ordered sushi.
The Fro-Yo Bar will include the following flavors: Vanilla, Chocolate, Original Tart, Blueberry Tart, Strawberry, Vanilla, Chocolate, Mango, Coffee and Peach. Toppings will include various candies, fresh fruit, cereals and Ghirardelli sauces. Price is a bit steep at $5.99 per cup, but that’s the premium you pay for the city that never sleeps.
What do you think FOODBEASTS? Would you buy self-serve yogurt or oatmeal from your local Walgreens, CVS or Duane Reade? Is Duane Reade ahead of the curve or stepping onto territory that should be left to those who specialize in it?
