Fun soft serve ice cream place in downtown Durham. I had a vanilla bowl with chocolate dip and…read moresprinkles. The dip was not quite sweet enough for me but I loved the soft serve. My husband had the ice cream nachos with butterscotch dip and rainbow sprinkles, Our favorite part of these were the waffle chips. Would highly recommend that dish. The shop is cute but got very busy while we were there and there was only one employee. I felt really bad for her because she got swamped but she handled it well. Definitely give it a try if you are in the area.

Love the ice cream at Pincho Loco. The staff is always friendly. I love the decor of the parlour…read moreand it is just all around fun. I love the ice cream cakes and flavors available, the smoothies and sweets are also just so good! I do also love that they have to go containers of ice cream!

It was everything we wanted out of a late-night ice cream run! We got their mango ice & lemon lime…read moresorbet. The lemon lime sorbet was especially delicious. Wish that they had had a vegan ice cream (instead of just vegan ices, popsicles, or sorbets), but what they had was good, so I can't complain too much! Service was fast, the inside was cute, and there's a bench outside to sit on if it's a nice day.

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.

I came to Jeni's with some colleagues and ordered the darkest chocolate and the vegan peppermint…read morepatty scoops. 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.

Amazing as always! Customer service is great and the employee even offered to remake my Nutella…read moretaiyaki if it was too dark for my liking - which it wasn't. Their rolled ice cream combinations are tasty but the made to order taiyaki truly takes the cake. Nice and crispy on the outside that gives away to warm and gooey Nutella. It is smoking hot immediately but hard to wait, hence the vanilla ice cream! The space was nice and bright, clean, and welcoming. They have redone their seating to include a couch which is very comfortable and can comfortably seat different parties with space in between. Always a treat and can't wait to be back.

A cute place to have ice cream, boba, or even coffee.. with both indoor & outdoor seating. The menu…read morehas quite a few fun options, including the famous Japanese fish-shaped waffles called taiyaki, with both sweet & savory fillings. I was pleasantly surprised to see Kadak Chai (Indian special tea) & Kashmiri Pink Chai Latte on the menu. Definitely something I'd like to try next time! 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. But if you're there to spend time with someone, go ahead & chit-chat until your dessert arrives :-P Because sometimes the dessert takes its sweet time... literally :D

Goodberry's frozen custard is solid! It is not ice cream, but custard with its own creamy goodness…read more I love the concept of starting with a base and then getting mixin's. This time I had vanilla custard, berries, and nuts. There are so many possibilities. You can basically go nuts with it and have them create you're own divine dessert creation. Worth a visit!

Yummy!! I've only tried this a couple times but I love them!! I thought they were ordinary snow…read morecones but noooo these snowballs are so soft and light like actual snow!! And just way too many flavors for an indecisive person like me!! Haha!! Prices are decent and whenever they are open there is always a line. They have their own mixed flavored SnoBalls that they name to make it easier to order. It took me awhile to decide on what flavors but I settled on Georgia peach, pina colada and red apple. And let me tell you, they taste just like what you expect, the real thing! The lines are well worth the wait!

Maybe it's even better! The toppings were your basic store bought toppings so I assume with this shop it's mostly about the actually froyo.

Don's is a food truck/cart that serves delicious Italian ices. These are real, NY/NJ area Italian…read moreices, made "pre-WWII style" according to Don. Real fruit can be found in each flavor. I grew up in New Jersey, and had an Italian Ice truck visit my community pool every afternoon in the summer. I've traveled to Hackensack, NJ with my parents, also Jersey natives, for Italian Ice at a little Italian bakery. Suffice to say, I'm an Italian Ice snob in the same way I'm a pizza snob. Rita's is good when the craving hits, but it is clearly a mass-market product. For connisseurs of italian ice, the quality of the product comes down to (1) the consistency and (2) the flavor. Don's gets an A+ in both categories. Just a little bit slushy by the time you finish, nice small ice crystals that glide off the spoon and in to your mouth. I had the lemon, a classic that (along with cherry) defines the genre. It was like a great freshmade lemonade, with just enough lemon zest and lemon juice to give it a good zip. My better half got a sampler of flavors ... all were good but the blueberry really stood out with an intense blueberry flavor. Next time, I'm thinking I'll go with a mix of lemon and blueberry, and maybe I'll be more adventurous than that, but classics are classics for a reason. Anyway, $2 gets you a pleated wax paper cup (just like in NJ!) packed full and tall with Italian ice. And Don and his employees are super friendly. The twitter account is the best way to find Don and his cart, but recent history suggests areas around Duke's East Campus or the Hospitals in the afternoons, and the 9th St. Wachovia (by Bulkogi) in the events, and at the Durham Farmers Market times will be good bets.

The description for 5 stars is exactly how i would say it.. As good as it gets!…read more you get a lot for $3 and the flavors are extremely fresh! On a hot day, it's a wonderful treat and every flavor is different. I had the strawberry and it was exactly that. not too sugary and you can still crunch on some strawberry seeds. the rainbow is also a great choice if you're indecisive. in every scoop you can taste a little of everything... it's not like a fake rainbow sherbet, you can taste fruit in it! extra points because Don (i asssume it was him - looked like him) is an extremely nice guy and very appreciative for your business. :)
