Durham’s Favorite Handmade Ice Cream

Downtown
Old West Durham

See you in 2026

We are still on our Winter Break with both locations closed. We will reopen January 2nd downtown and January 6th at Junior! Thanks for everything in 2025! If you need ice cream this week, check for pints at Bulldega or the Coop!

Where to find our ice cream:

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. And members of the Duke community can now use dining points to buy select ½ pints at Thrive Kitchen!

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.

Reminder! Pint sale starts on Monday and Yoni and I will be manning the shop+playing “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas” on repeat so…see you there? 🦛🎄 Lauren came up with a kinda genius Hanukkah ice cream flavor: latkes and applesauce! A sour cream and apple caramel ice cream with crispy potato stick shortbread and apple caramel mixed in. Get it while it’s cold 😎🕎 PSA: PINT SALE happening once again next Monday through Wednesday December 22-24. Plan your ice cream purchases accordingly! PSA: holiday closure starts next week! Only a teeny bit of time left to get our seasonal flavors. Have you tried this month’s seasonal cookie? It’s a double chocolate dough with crushed peppermint candy mixed in. Just about one more week to get em! 🍪🆒
