Local Yogurt is an independently owned yogurt shop located in downtown Durham. The establishment focuses its efforts on maintaining an abundance of fresh yogurt and delicious toppings. This shop is unique to the triangle and a great place to gather with friends and family. The younger customers frequently refer to it as “Lo-Yo” and are constantly popping in and out for a quick bite to eat.

The great thing about Local Yogurt is how customer-oriented it is. There is guaranteed to be a flavor and topping combination that you’ll love. Each day the staff chooses four different flavors, while keeping the toppings the same. Some of these flavors include their ever-so-famous original tart, Chacha chocolate, blueberry, peanut butter, and even a Ginger Lemon Sorbet. They have an endless selection of toppings consisting of fresh fruit, chocolate candies, granola bits, and even potato chips! The wonderful thing about this yogurt shop is the fact that it tastes so good, but is also incredibly good for you. It’s a win-win scenario! One important aspect of Local Yogurt is the constant effort to “go green” and help preserve the planet Earth. They serve their yogurt in 100% compostable cups and utensils, and make a conscious effort to recycle. The owners also make a valiant effort to direct their attention towards kids of all ages.

They have a food truck that is always on the move and showing up at local events. So if you can't come to them, they'll come to you! They have a designated Elementary School Day every Monday and are always bringing smiles to the faces of young ones. They also offer discounts to all of the college kids and high schoolers. What more could you ask for! Local Yogurt is located in Downtown Durham on 2501 University Drive, right next to Thai Cafe. It is such a great place to come together with friends and enjoy a delicious bowl of frozen yogurt.
