For local flavor in Greensboro, you can’t beat Yum Yum Ice Cream, which has been around – and in the same family – since 1906. Generations of North Carolinians have enjoyed ice cream, hot dogs, and more from this spot that’s found on the UNCG campus in the heart of Greensboro and a journey here for ice cream and more is like a pilgrimage for some.

Welcome to Yum Yum, which has been in the Aydelette family for nearly 115 years.

The ice cream is out of this world good.
