So we made our rounds at Golden Belt this afternoon, and ice cream was the final stop! I was surprised to see so many flavor options and was pleasantly surprised to learn that I could get two different flavors in my small ice cream order. I enjoyed both flavors; chocolate peanut butter and chocolate turtle! I was impressed with the chunks of peanut butter but the chocolate turtle gets my vote-sooooo good. Looking forward to future visits! read more

This ice cream was one of the best I've had. It wasn't too thick it was light and wasn't too sweet for my taste buds. I had gotten the tirimisu and donut ice cream which was amazing. The vibes were nice and it was quick service. It was a lot of people there at the time around 7pm. read more

Some of the best ice cream in Durham! There's lots of options (and it's very clear what is dairy free, nut free, etc.) and I appreciate the partially rotating menu. I came here with a large group and service was great and quick. The balcony is great (especially for watching concerts outside of Hi Wire). Other reviewers have mentioned that they don't do samples but the last time I was there it was limited to 2 samples (but it wasn't busy at all). A great addition to Golden Belt! (Be sure to check the portion sizes as the small is actually 2 scoops). read more

This is my go to place for ice cream in Durham. Two Roosters is located in a cute and developing plaza that has a lot of outdoor space to have a picnic on the grass or on large concrete steps. Two Roosters itself has a rooftop patio with tables that are shaded by umbrellas. Each month, Two Roosters introduces new, fun flavors that never fail to impress. Their ice cream is very creamy, and their incorporation of food chunks in the ice cream (for example, donut chunks in the coffee with chocolate donut flavor) makes this place very unique and extra tasty. Their single scoop is a rather large serving size, and they allow you to choose two flavors for it, making it easy to share a single with a loved one if you both are so inclined. :-) read more

This ice cream shop is in a very cool location. I think this used to be an old factory or mill and there's a brewery and a pizza shop and this ice cream shop all in one location with a shared grassy area in the middle. I am dairy free and I had plenty of options honestly I feel like they give you a pretty big scoop for the prices which are decent. They have a cute small seating section downstairs, a cute small seating section upstairs and then an outdoor patio that's upstairs. All the staff was really great and friendly they required masks. The staff was always really quick with getting the orders done I can't wait to go back. read more

Story Time It was a hot hot humid day. The kind where you are sticky and even the thought of ice cream seemed icky because you're thinking about the few melted drops, the stickiness around your mouth you can seem to wipe off. And would rather avoid it. BUT had two people with me who wanted it and I was so glad I got to enjoy it! The LOCATION was so surprising and cute. In the shade, rad, cool, chic vibe with the other shops around it. The ice cream was soooooo good. And I'm lactose intolerant! The cake come on top of the ice cream is such a unique idea. I've never had it like that before. It was so good. Yes it got a little sticky around my mouth, but I wiped it off and managed to find a restroom to wash the residue off. It is SOOO good. If you like deserts and you like GOOD ice cream, definitely go get you some Two Roosters. I didn't see any roosters though :/ read more

Great location and good ice cream. I do think it's a bummer that you can't sample the ice cream because in my case, I ended up ordering an ice cream that I didn't really care for (the donut ice cream, which I thought just had an odd texture and flavor). In my opinion, it's not the best ice cream in Durham, but their flavors are fun and I hope they someday decide to let people sample so customers can make better decisions! read more

One of my favorite spots to grab a sweet treat in Durham. I love their flavor offerings from classic ones like vanilla, chocolate, cookies and cream to their more adventurous ones like pizza, there's something for everyone. Their ice cream is truly so delicious and the flavors are always on point. I love getting the waffle bowl, who doesn't love an edible bowl? Eating the crispy bits around the edges and then getting to the soft, icecream soaked center of the waffle bowl is my favorite part. I also enjoy that it's right next door to Hi-Wire and a pizza spot so I can grab a brew and a slice if I feel like it and people watch in the courtyard outside. Great icecream and definitely a staple in Durham! read more

Durham is blessed with some great local ice cream parlors like The Parlour and the new Rockwood Dairy Bar (not to mention rolled ice cream places and Latinx places). You can add Two Roosters to the list. I applaud them for opening during a pandemic. You can't go in and sit, but they will greet you at the entrance, take your order, and call our your name when ready. They have some regular flavors and some rotating seasonal ones and experiments. So far we've tried a pound cake ice cream, blackberry hibiscus ice cream (my wife's favorite), and coffee bourbon. Pricewise, they are in between the two local places mentioned -- at least for pints. They are directly across from Hi Wire Brewery (although if you're not familiar with the area, it may take you a while to get to the back of the Golden Belt campus). I will give all three of these places my business. read more

We were so excited to find that Two Roosters had opened in the Goldenbelt! With it being walking distance from our house and their new location opening right after I had shoulder surgery I can say we have been frequent fliers. We love all their wonderful special flavors and even though I'd previously disliked vegan ice cream we decided to give their pineapple upside down cake a try recently and it's AMAZING! More than that though it's their fantastic customer service that keeps us coming back. For example recently they put a handwritten thank you note in with our order of a couple pints and it was such a lovely touch. If you're in the area stop by, grab a cone, head across the courtyard and get a beer! You won't regret it! read more

I really enjoyed my two roosters ice cream. They had unique flavors that were super smooth and didn't taste as fake and overly sweet as other ice creams. It was a little more icy and less creamy than I may have liked. The Parlour is still my favorite in Durham but this is a née exciting addition. They have a few set of staple flavors and than a good set of seasonal flavors that rotate. They have a vegan flavor as well. Currently in covid they don't have the inside open. They have the flavors posted on the window and one group at a time can go in and order. There was only one person working on the Sunday night I went so it took a little time to get our ice cream since there were a few groups there but that was no problem for us. There is a lot of outdoor seating around this area and it is across from Hi-Wire brewery so you can bring the ice cream over and enjoy it at the brewery. They also have a rooftop patio which looks super fun and is very unique for an ice cream spot. They have kids scoop, a single scoop which is kind of deceiving because you can get two flavors in a single so it's not exactly two scoops, and a double. They also have milkshakes. The single was perfect for me and i tried the sea salt chocolate chip cookie dough which was a little too flavorless for me but the cookie dough chunks were good and I also had the coffee bourbon which was really tasty. read more

Ice cream for the win!! With this location right in the same space as Hi Wire brewing, you can grab your beer, grab your ice cream, and if a food truck happens to be there too, you have yourself a one stop shop!! And this ice cream will not disappoint. Cookies and Cream is one of my fav flavors here but their Coffee Bourbon is also pretty darn tasty too. Very creamy, thick ice cream, and it just tastes so fresh. This location makes shapes I believe, but I was first introduced to Two Roosters at the Durham Bulls stadium location where they made these incredible cookie ice cream sandwiches! I am still waiting for this location to make those cookie sandwiches and then this spot will be perfect! Not super cheap ice cream, but in my opinion the price is worth it. It is a small little shop and with COVID they will meet you at the door really for your order so be prepared to take it to go to eat in the open space at Golden Belt or out to your car. But yay for ice cream even in the winter!! read more

Went here over the weekend for the first time and LOVED it. Our ice cream server was so nice and friendly, answering all my questions about the store's location and the other shops. Our family of six got child sized cups which ended up being plenty given how rich the ice cream was. I opted for the non-dairy raspberry brownie and was not disappointed! It's made with oat milk and was delicious. We can also highly recommend the Nutella flavor and the Brookie 2.0 (both of which are seasonal). Go try them today before they change the menu! read more

Two roosters is the best! They have the most delicious flavors & monthly rotating flavors that always make us visit at least twice a week. My last visit was the best and I wanted to thank the two employees who made it happen (I'm sorry I didn't catch your names!). My friends & I went last week, but we couldn't decide between a few flavors. After going back & forth for a while & asking the employees their options, they gave us all 3 flavors for the price of what we were hoping to get. Totally wasn't necessary, but I haven't stopped raving about them or their customer service since. They also opened their seating inside and upstairs which overlooks hi-wire and the surrounding area! It was nice to sit out there before the cooler weather came in. Basically, 10/10 recommend! Looking forward to going back this week! :) read more

(I love sorbet, but sometimes you want rich ice cream). Besides chocolate mint and Vietnamese coffee, there's an enticing lime sorbet and a rotating seasonal flavor, which in late July was a blackberry crumble that is delicious with little bits of crumble ribboned throughout (I love to chew my ice cream). A single scoop is actually quite generous and only $5. Service is speedy and friendly.

The outdoor part has a shaded area and they even have small fire pits for people to hang out by!

We planned to share a banana split, but unfortunately they were out of bananas, which was a bit of a bummer. Even on a cold day, the ice cream was still delicious. There's plenty of outdoor seating where you can enjoy the view, and I'd definitely come back when it's warmer--hopefully with bananas back in stock so I can finally get that banana split!

I stopped by for a birthday treat and had such a great experience. The staff was incredibly sweet,…read morepatient, and happy to answer questions while I debated flavors. If you're as indecisive as I am, they'll gladly let you sample a few before committing. The shop itself is bright, clean, and welcoming, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The colorful decor and festive atmosphere make it a fun place to sit and enjoy your ice cream rather than just grabbing it to go. The hardest part was choosing from all the unique flavors. Everything I sampled was delicious, and the scoop I ended up with was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. You can tell they put a lot of thought into creating combinations that are both creative and genuinely tasty. Whether you're a local or just visiting Durham, Jeni's is absolutely worth a stop for a sweet treat. Great ice cream, great atmosphere, and even better customer service. Bonus points for making a birthday afternoon feel a little more special.

They accidentally gave me the milk chocolate ice cream (pictured here) and later swapped it out for darkest when I asked. The ice cream is mediocre in my opinion and leans on the sweeter side. The ambiance and seating in here is plentiful. I came here with 10+ colleagues and we ended up sitting at the high top bar, not pictured. My main qualm with Jeni's is the temperature inside the store; it was freezing inside even though I was fully dressed in business casual with a sweater.

MilkShake Factory Downtown Durham

Let's get right to it... possibly the best milk shake I've ever had. Fun atmosphere and friendly…read moreservice. Jess and Teagan both deserve to be on the employee of the month list! I'd recommend the chocolate peanut brownie milkshake. That, along with some bark or a truffle will give you just enough of a sugar high to make it through throws at you today!

"Great milkshakes right behind the Durham Bulls stadium"…read more Behind the Bulls stadium, next to Moe's, sits this little treat. We came on a Friday evening at around 7pm, and there was no line (though a few people came in right behind us). The place is bright and airy, with some seating, and a great counter showing a selection of chocolate treats and the menu of milkshakes. I was delighted that they had some dairy-free milkshakes, given my lactose intolerance! And 4 choices no less! They of course had fancier flavors in the dairy set, more complex than CookOut (which I love). My girlfriend and I got the lactose-free cookies and cream milkshake. They fixed it on the spot, so we got it in maybe 2 minutes. Service was friendly-- they were patient with the customers behind us who were a bit unruly (more playful unruly than rude). One word-- DELICIOUS. Not too sweet, but just right. I've had some weird dairy-free milkshakes with a grittiness or chalkiness, but this was straight-up like how I remember the real deal. It was thick too, and unlike CookOut, they gave you a thick straw so you can actually drink with it. Why 4 stars and not 5? The price was a bit steep. With a $1 tip, this one shake (which was reasonably sized but far from huge) was over $10. But for the quality and selection, I do think it's "not unreasonable". Worth the try, and worth it for a special treat!

We ordered the Gulab Jamun Rolled Ice Cream & Falooda. The rolled Gulab Jamun ice cream was good, but the Falooda was AMAZING! Perfectly layered and the presentation was on point for both. Before you head there, two things I'd like to mention...the prices are high! $10 for rolled ice cream feels a bit much & the service is slow.

There are also a few tables out in the front to sit at after getting your custard / ice cream. The inside of the shop is small and can get very packed and busy in side. They have a freezer selection that is stocked with flavors of the day or different types of custards depending on availability. Near the register there is also another freezer that has the ice cream sandwiches and other treats. I like Whit's because they do a rotating flavor of the day, a flavor of the week, and flavor of the month. They have a calendar of flavors on their website and socials. (i.e. Facebook or Insta) The menu is pretty expansive offering sundaes, to whitsers, and other such creations. The real star of the show is the custard. It is very creamy and pretty sweet. It is definitely one of my favorite ice cream shops in the Triangle. I haven't had any bad experiences coming here per say but sometimes the young cashiers at the front can seem a bit ignorant and stare you down when it comes to tipping. Outside of that, a good experience and good custard.
