Walk-ins: Walk-up counter; ordering inside is an alternative to the outdoor window line (The Infatuation)
No specific wait time is reported, but The Infatuation notes a line at the outdoor frozen yogurt window is common enough that they suggest heading inside to order instead (The Infatuation).
No reservation system is mentioned; it operates as a walk-up market and takeout window, per The Infatuation.
Yes — it's a walk-up counter, and The Infatuation notes you can bypass the outdoor window line by ordering the frozen yogurt inside instead.
