About YuMe Desserts Parlour

YuMe Desserts Parlour sits within YuMe World in the Riverwalk, a lively riverside entertainment complex, and brings a bright, neon-lit dessert menu to the centre of Durham. Alongside gelato in flavours from vegan vanilla and strawberry fudge brownie to Kinder Bueno, and mango sorbet, there are soft-serve tubs loaded with toppings, waffles, sundaes and milkshakes, plus some hot food. It is aimed squarely at a fun, indulgent treat rather than a quiet scoop.

The Riverwalk setting, with games and activities alongside, makes it a natural stop for families and groups after the cinema or a wander round the shops. Opening hours run late into the evening, so it suits a pudding after dinner as well as an afternoon treat.
