Menchie's, a self-serve frozen yogurt chain with a location in Erie, has announced the closure of all northeast Ohio and Erie locations. 

According to a post on Menchie's Northeast Ohio Facebook page, the closures are immediate and permanent. 

The post cites the COVID-19 pandemic as the reason for the closure. 

The Erie store was located in Keystone Place on Upper Peach St. 

Erie News Now tried to reach out to the local store Monday afternoon, but the phone number appears to already be disconnected.
