"October 19, 2024 - Kudos to Granny! She’s mentioned in “Two Roosters Ice Cream”background story Maybe at some point her photo will appear on the walls of the six store locations: Greystone Village, Raleigh Person Street , Raleigh Golden Belt, Durham Lake Boone Trail, Raleigh Wake Forest Watery Plaza, Cary * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Our posse of three stopped at the Ice Cream parlor at Person Street . . . Line was short, walked up and ordered the large milkshake, ( Only 1 size milkshake) strawberry with chocolate hot fudge. Great thirst quencher on a sunny afternoon! My compatriots were satisfied with one scoop kiddie cups. (Watching their waste lines, I guess? ) The flavors were beyond the pedestrian coffee, mint chip , and vanilla of most ice cream places . . . Such as: Blackberry Hibiscus Sola Cinnamon Donut Sea Salt Chip Cookie Dough Coffee Bourbon Strawberry & Honey We all agreed, bold zesty flavors with fresh ingredients! I guess we’ll return and try new flavors as they rotate new ones each month. My research revealed local Channel 5 tv station WRAL -TV has awarded 2 Roosters four times with “ BEST Ice Cream” ! Also USA Today named 2 Roosters “ BEST ice cream” twice, in 2019 & 2023! Granny would be proud of owner Jared Plummer ! Thanks for quality ice cream in the Triangle area ! Suggestion: Let’s get Granny up on the wall, and add outdoor seating at your Person Street location , if possible? Note: Some ice cream flavors made with wheat, therefore not Gluten Free. Also some flavors have nuts, would be helpful if flavors labeled for customers with allergies?"

"I came in with a friend and had the most amazing, exceptional experience thanks to Lukas & Patrick. The true superheroes of ice cream! From the moment we walked in, they radiated kindness, enthusiasm, and pure joy. They didn’t just scoop ice cream, they delivered happiness with every flavor, recommendation, and smile. Their energy and attention to detail made the whole experience feel special and personal. It honestly felt like we were being served by the Avengers of dessert, saving the world one scoop at a time! If every business had a Lukas and a Patrick, the world would be a sweeter place. Two Roosters, you’ve got some absolute legends on your team."

"Decided to take the family out for ice cream. Nice little spot with a decent parking lot. Kinda busy but it was Saturday night. The staff was friendly and seemed to enjoy their job. They take all kinds of payment options including cash. We spent an average of $10 per person. I got a flight and sampled 6 flavors. The Blueberry Hibiscus was the winner with Lemon Cookie dough close second, then peanut butter cookie dough. Really creamy ice cream with loads of flavor but somehow not too sweet. They're a small family business so I was happy to support them. If you like ice cream give them a try."

"I love two roosters ice cream! For the longest time, I have looked forward to checking out the guest flavors as soon as they come out. It’s a littler treat to stop there after work to get some ice cream and see the workers! One employee in particular, Avery, always manages to brighten my day and make me feel welcomed when I walk in. Her input on the flavors is always super-detailed and she brings the perfect energy to Two Roosters!"
