Durham’s Favorite Handmade Ice Cream

Downtown
Old West Durham

Summer Hours have returned to Downtown

Daylight Saving Time has arrived, so we’re calling it Spring! The Downtown location is once again noon to 10:00 pm every day!

Our flagship Downtown Durham shop at 117 Market St. features housemade pastry + espresso drinks in addition to our renowned ice cream! Our Old West Durham location known as The Parlour Junior is a mini scoop shop based out of The Common Market. It features a smaller (but still exciting) menu and is open 6 days a week.

You can also pre-order ice cream cakes on our site (for pickup downtown), or find select flavors in pints at The Durham Coop Market, Bulldega, and Melina’s Fresh Pasta. Plus, you can find our ice cream in desserts from Chez Moi Bakery and Alley Twenty Six

We make the best ice cream around, with the best ingredients. Our flavors are inspired by the seasons, our favorite well-worn cookbooks, and our childhood ice cream memories.

Bonus flavor for this weekend: German Chocolate Brownie! Chocolate ice cream with brownie pieces, toasted coconut, and toasted pecans. Only available at our downtown location for now! Reminder to our nondairy friends that Thin Mint is here for a good time, not a long time, so get it before we run out of cookies! 😎 According to Ancestry DNA I might be a tiny bit Irish on the Caribbean side of my family, so I present to you two Irish-ish flavors to celebrate today: whiskey truffle and Guinness cookie gravel. May Saint Patrick protect us from snake bites this summer 🙏🏼 Welcome to another round of this special or that special! Option one: raspberry matcha iced tea cloud. Option two: raspberry white chocolate milkshake with matcha cream. Vote in the comments! Thrilling news: we have TWO soft serve flavors this weekend! Vanilla and malted chocolate banana. Downtown only!
