    Waffles, fro yo, espresso... what more could you want? The coffees are generously sized! The place is spacious, but keeps a cozy vibe.

    Easily the best froyo in the area. Unlike Pinkberry, you can add as many flavors and toppings as you want - price is determined by weight.

    Check out Katie's video of her friend hanging out at iYo Cafe. He recommends the blueberry tart! Check out the Favecast recommendation here- http://www.favecast.com/adKvwZ156i

    You can put fro-yo on a waffle that you make fresh yourself. Then cover it with all the toppings you want. What's not to like?

    Delicious treats and fast wifi. Plus it's much easier to get a table here than other cafés in Davis Square.

    Lots of interesting flavor combinations, and the staff are really helpful and friendly. I recommend white chocolate mousse and peanut butter.

    Wish I would have had the time to sample some of their yummy looking food, but the caramel latté was delicious!

    Try the new Caribbean cream ... it goes surprisingly well with the sea salt caramel pretzel ... sweet and salty.

    In addition to the froyo they have regular yogurt at the end of the topping line. Breakfast parfait!

    Very tasty yogurt, and self-serve, unlike Pinkberry, so you can get just as much as you want.

    Sea salt caramel pretzel is almost as good as the new Caribbean cream ... and surprisingly, they go well together.

    Try their white mousse froyo flavor. It's white chocolate-based and insanely good

    The music here tends to be loud. If you want a quieter work space, head to the back group space.

    Free wifi. Hotspot is Xfinitywifi. Username and password by the register. If you have trouble logging in with Lion's autologin, wait until it pops up blank screen, then launch browser and login there.

    If Diesel is too busy for you and Starbucks isn't your style, iYo is a great alternative.

    Much better yogurt at Berryline, however the topping variety is pretty legit.
