I’ve had a few really negative experiences at this store! The most recent time, I walked in to a completely empty store (all staff in the back and nobody seemed to be intent on getting out quickly.) This has happened in the past as well! Once in the store, I went to the restroom, which had urine on the seat, an empty toilet paper roll, and no paper towels. It’s clear that management and staff do not pay attention to those details. After leaving the restroom, someone was finally out from the back. I was visiting with both of my parents and the staff member was extremely rude and unwilling to answer their questions about how many flavors they could have with different sizes. The employee would just grunt and nod or shake his head and looked absolutely miserable to be there. By the time it was my turn to order, I felt like too much of a burden for this employee and decided not to order. I understand people have bad days, but this seems to be a pattern at this particular ben and Jerry’s and I’d urge anyone thinking about going there to go somewhere they have a better trained and friendlier staff.

We utilized their ice cream cart for our Durham wedding and it was a huge hit! Great flavors, reasonable pricing, and super easy to coordinate. The guests named this as a highlight!
