The brainchild of brothers Nick and John DeVito, Charlotte’s looks to bring a homey environment to downtown Farmingdale that sets it apart from the bright neon and plastic motif of most other fro-yo chains.

We wanted to do our own thing, in our own style.  Charlotte’s is more than just frozen yogurt.  It’s a coffee shop, a dessert shop and an ice cream parlor.  Charlotte’s represents the return of the neighborhood hang-out.  Small children, students, families or even business people looking for a coffee shop with wi-fi can turn to Charlotte’s as their new local spot.

Charlotte’s, named after Nick and John’s mother, is built atop a former prohibition era speakeasy which still includes the old tin walls and ceiling used by bootleggers in the basement.  The DeVitos were inspired by the building’s rich history and decided to make Charlotte’s provide an old fashioned ambiance that was reminiscent of the Roaring Twenties.  There is also a back room for parties and a yard for people to sit and enjoy their frozen treats outside on a hot summer day.
