Absolutely love this place! From the moment you walk in you’re greeted with friendly, family-run vibes and a cozy atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. Their rolled ice cream, made-to-order taiyaki, boba drinks, and soft serve are all top notch — rich in flavor, beautifully made, and never too sweet. Watching them prepare the treats is part of the experience, and every visit feels special. They also do an amazing job with coffee drinks and have options like oat milk available. This is hands-down one of Durham’s best dessert shops — worth a visit for families, date night, or anytime you’re craving something sweet!

That place was amazing—everything was so good. From the ice cream rolls to the taiyaki and the cookies-and-cream cupcake, every bite was worth it. But the real standout for me was the pink tea with pistachio on top—absolutely my favorite.

Salt N Cocoa is one of our favorite dessert spots in Durham! We tried their new Kulfi Falooda , and it was absolutely delicious. The Cookies & Cream Shake was rich and creamy, and they have the best Nutella Taiyaki we’ve ever had. It’s the perfect family spot for ice cream and desserts. Great ambiance, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

We love Salt n' Cocoa so much! Been going for several years since we moved to the area, and the desserts and staff have been amazing! It's been our go-to spot with friends and family for a casual weekend night. The rolled ice cream is top quality and so many delicious varieties, and I always get a taiyaki to go with it (even if they are a bit pricey). We remember when it started as just the ice cream and taiyaki, and since has expanded with nice drinks and boba too. Highly recommend checking it out and supporting a great local Durham business!

Visited Salt & Cocoa in Durham yesterday and tried the Desi Kadak chai and Dubai chocolate ice cream. The kadak chai is hands down the best in the RTP area!
The ice cream was good too, though the pistachio syrup was okay. I think they used to have a green paste one before. The service was excellent. They even offered me an alternative, but I passed since everything was good. Overall, a great experience and I highly recommend this spot. I’ll definitely be back to try the Gulab Jamun ice cream, Kashmiri pink tea and matcha.
