Award-Winning Ice Cream Shop Jeni’s Picks Durham, North Carolina, for Next Location | Eater Carolinas

"James Beard Award-winning ice cream maker Jeni Britton Bauer is bringing her eponymous shop to Brightleaf Square in Durham, North Carolina; she says she loves the Durham area for its character and entrepreneurial spirit. Since opening her first store in Columbus, Ohio in 2002, her unconventional flavors—like Sweet Curry, Basil Honey Pine Nut, El Rey Single-Origin Chocolate and the breakout Salty Caramel—have built a cult-like following and led to pints appearing in stores nationwide. New-city openings typically draw lines around the block, so Durham residents should keep an eye out for the opening date." - Erin Perkins

Enjoyed the ice cream flavors with bits of cake in them. Flavors you wouldn’t normally see at the grocery store. Would visit again. You are able to taste test flavors before buying. You can be served in a variety of forms such as a bowl, waffle cone, etc… This location has a steady flow of customers of all ages. Gloves weren’t worn during handling at this visit.

The ice cream was affordable, the lines were short, and the service was quick. It was my first time visiting, and I decided to be adventurous and try the new watermelon taffy ice cream and oh boy did it pack a punch. Maybe it's because I'm used to other companies under-delivering on flavor, but I was genuinely shocked at its intensity. Don’t get me wrong—it's impressive that it lived up to the flavor it claims to be. However, as someone who loves literally anything and everything artificially watermelon-flavored, even I found it to be, dare I say, too pungent/overly sweet. As for the restaurant itself, it was clean, with both indoor and outdoor seating. Overall, I’m happy with my experience, but would skip the watermelon taffy next time.

Stopped by Jeni’s for some late-night ice cream treats! Tried a couple of free samples — the Gooey Butter Cake and Brambleberry Crisp — both were delicious. The seating options are great, with both indoor and outdoor spaces. The AC inside is definitely refreshing. There’s some on-site parking, though it can get packed during busy hours. A solid spot for a sweet fix!

Love the ice cream! But they let a non service dog come in after he took a poop which is actually disgusting.

Wow, great little ice cream shop. I had no idea they did a collaboration with Ted Lasso, super cool. Both of the Non-Dairy options they had were really good but I liked the Texas chocolate sheet cake the best. The outside and inside space was amazing and 100% a great place to visit before/after dinner or lunch downtown.

Love this place! First, let's talk about the dairy free options. There are some fabulous flavors to pick from! Texas Sheet Cake, caramel pecan sticky buns, and so many more! I have a friend who is dairy free and she was so excited by the choices she had to pick from. Then there are their regular flavors and they keep a rotating menu of delicious flavors! Cinnamon bun, caramel popcorn, buttermilk strawberry and many more! This ice cream shop is an amazing little shop with absolutely delicious flavors to chose from! I highly suggest giving them a visit!

Came by Jeni's for some frozen treats! Ended up getting some of their dairy free options. I believe it was the Texas sheet cake and rose sorbet. There is seating both inside and outside. AC is super cold inside. There is some parking on site, but can definitely get packed during busy hours.

I’ve tired just about every flavor they have and they are all so good. My favorite flavors are the Sweet Cream Biscuits and Peach Jam, Salty Caramel, and Savannah Buttermint! They are always adding new flavors and their homemade waffle cones are so good!
