ABOUT

Once upon a time there was a beautiful redheaded girl whose very favorite thing in the whole world was frozen yogurt. While many little girls grow up dreaming about their weddings (the big white dress! the horse-drawn carriage! the prince!), this little girl imagined a place where she could go to enjoy her favorite frozen treat. She dreamt that the yogurt would be delicious and all-natural, it would be low-calorie and low-fat, and there would be lots of fresh and fun toppings to put on top.

The girl grew up to be a very busy, hardworking woman. Between showing her horses, traveling the world, and helping to run a vast family business along with her full-time job, she realized that she just couldn’t find the time to make her frozen yogurt shop a reality. If only she could find someone to help her….

By a strange twist of fate and some good fortune, the girl met another redhead who loved frozen yogurt just as much as she did! Even better, this friend knew two more fro-yo loving people who were passionate about the positive impact that independent restaurants have on the local community.

Thus the birth of Local Yogurt, Durham’s first independently owned frozen yogurt shop!

Local Yogurt is everything that the little girl imagined in her childhood dreams: It’s a bright and cheerful place filled with friends, great seating, big windows for good people-watching, and—best of all—offers four flavors of natural frozen yogurt along with a delectable selection of fruit, cereal, candy, and other toppings.

The shop’s concept is based upon one particular flavor—Original--a creamy, tart, plain frozen yogurt that is similar in flavor to plain yogurt, but it’s frozen. It is delicious on its own or makes a wonderful base for almost any topping you can dream up. Original will always be available at Local Yogurt, but because the four LoYo partners love adventure and spontaneity (and know that Durham does, too!), the three additional flavors and many of the toppings will rotate on a regular basis. Your suggestions are always welcome.
