Durham’s Favorite Handmade Ice Cream
Spring/Summer Hours have returned at both locations!
Downtown is noon–10pm 7 days a week. The Parlour Junior (at the Common Market) is still closed Mondays but opens at noon every other day: noon-9pm Tuesday through Saturday, noon–8pm Sundays.
Our flagship Downtown Durham shop at 117 Market St. features housemade baked goods and 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, featuring a smaller (but still exciting) menu.
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, Der Nachbar Bottleshop, 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.
