Our Story

Established in 2012

About

Sheila, always felt a strong sense of family within her community. Not being able to let go of the strong values and even stronger relationships she had acquired, Sheila was never able to venture too far from those she called family.

Sheila is now raising a family of her own in a community she calls home. After years of making life-long friendships and countless memories, she decided she would like to give back to her community.

Completing a lifelong dream of opening her very own frozen yogurt shop, in the middle of Arlington Heights, Berry Yo was founded by Sheila and her brothers (Mick and Jim), long-time residents of the Northwest Suburbs and proud Hersey High School alumni.

With a lifetime of food service experience, their dream was to build more than just a frozen yogurt shop, they wanted to create a community hub full of joy, flavor, and connection.

Now their dream has become a reality, and Berry Yo is supplying the community with sweet treats and even sweeter service.

Many years later, Berry Yo remains a local staple, where guests are treated like family and every scoop is served with a smile.

About

Our Place

Berry Yo isn’t just a frozen yogurt shop—it’s a welcoming space where everyone feels like family. From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll notice it’s more than just about the toppings and the flavors (though those are pretty great too). It’s about the laughter, the conversations, the birthday parties, and the after-school stops that make this place special.

Designed to be bright, friendly, and full of good vibes, our shop is a local hangout where kids can be kids, families can slow down, and neighbors can connect. Whether you’re grabbing a quick treat or hosting a celebration, our place is your place—because community is at the heart of everything we do.

Our Passion

Berry Yo began with a simple goal: to create a place that brought people together. Sheila, Mick, and Jim didn’t just want to open a dessert shop—they wanted to build something meaningful for the community they’ve always called home. With deep roots in Arlington Heights and a strong bond as siblings, they shared a vision of blending their love for great food with their love for people.

Years of working in the food industry gave them the experience—but it was their desire to give back, to build something lasting, and to create joyful moments for families and friends that truly fueled their journey. Berry Yo is the result of that passion: a neighborhood gathering spot filled with fresh flavors, friendly faces, and a whole lot of heart.

This isn’t just a business. It’s a celebration of community, family, and the sweet joy of sharing something you love.
