Celebrating Decades of Delight at Two Roosters Ice Cream
The much-loved Two Roosters Ice Cream is throwing a party, and everyone is invited! From July 15 to 20, 2025, this local gem will celebrate not only its birthday but also National Ice Cream Day on the 20th. Each of the shops will transform into a nostalgic time capsule, proudly displaying themes from different decades, complete with unique ice cream flavors that tell a story.
Roaring 20s: A Taste of Elegance
At the Golden Belt location in Durham, attendees will step into the Roaring 20s. What’s the treat, you ask? A refreshing Champagne Sorbet, elegantly served in champagne glasses. To accompany this flavor extravaganza, a jazz trio will provide live music from 5 to 8 p.m. on July 20, allowing guests to sip their sorbet while enjoying the sweet sounds of jazz. It promises to create a delightful, festive atmosphere reminiscent of the speakeasy days.
The 50s: Elvis Has Entered the Building
Next, the Factory in Wake Forest is channeling the 1950s with a flavor dedicated to the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll himself. The Elvis, a banana caramel treat swirled with peanut butter sauce, takes the spotlight, served in cute classic car cups for an extra two bucks. On the 20th, an Elvis impersonator will make a special appearance from 6 to 8 p.m. for photos and a little bit of mingling!
Getting Groovy in the 70s
The Person Street location in Raleigh captures the vibe of the 1970s. Their signature flavor, Grasshopper Pie, is a delightful green mint ice cream topped with chunks of Oreos and flavored marshmallow fluff. On July 20, free tie-dye sessions will be held from 5 to 7 p.m., giving visitors a chance to wear their creativity proudly.
Totally Tubular 80s
Meanwhile, the Lake Boone Trail shop celebrates the 1980s with Chunk’s Rocky Road, a chocolate ice cream treat packed with mini marshmallows, sliced almonds, and fudge sauce. In true retro style, visitors can play classic arcade games like Pac-Man and Mortal Kombat for free throughout the week, transporting them back to their childhood.
Nostalgia in the 90s
The Greystone location features a 90s-themed flavor: Dunkaroos, which combines a vanilla cake batter base with swirls of vanilla frosting and fun Teddy Grahams. On the 20th, guests can create friendship bracelets from 6 to 8 p.m., blending an activity with a sweet treat.
The 2000s: Cosmic Candy Fun
Finally, at Waverly Place, the focus shifts to the early 2000s with a Cosmic Brownie flavor that promises to be as colorful as the era itself—vanilla ice cream loaded with brownie pieces and confetti chips. For some additional fun, guests can test their knowledge in a Music Bingo game featuring 2000s hits, with opportunities to win cash prizes and gift cards from Two Roosters.
