This has got to be one of the tastiest Ice Cream places in town!
Homemade tastes with multiple flavors in cups, cones and waffle cups and cones.
Also, great customer service, generous portions and reasonable parking and prices.
Highly Recommend!

My sister and I were having a terrible night and Brandon made us smile. Above and beyond service. And ice cream is delicious

2025.06-06_1945: When they first opened, I saw there was a huge line to get in so I didn't want to try it. The first time we went a couple weeks ago, I saw that it wasn't a dine-in ice cream shop like BR and I was relieved. The line went super fast because they have four windows open and plenty of staff. I made the mistake of walking to Handel's and wanting to eat it at home so I really couldn't enjoy my Taro ice cream during my first visit. It was DELICIOUS but I was walking and eating my ice cream. That was just a bad decision. When we visited today, it was perfect.

Parking wasn't an issue and they have a few tables and stools so you are able to enjoy your ice cream immediately, especially on a hot day.

The staff was super awesome, friendly and very helpful. I love the fact that the lovely young lady that assisted us warned us that the Monster Malt was 44 oz. Holy moly, that's huge. We're so happy because we didn't want to go into a diabetic coma as well as be up all night. She absolutely rocked! I was able to sample Handel's Frosted Animal Cookie and the Mister sampled the Black Cherry. In both samples, there were chunks of cookie and cherries.

Today, I ordered the Green Tea and the Mister chose the Bluebery Cobbler 22 oz. malt shake. The Green Tea was delicious and tasted just like Green Tea with cream. The Mister's Blueberry Cobbler tasted exactly like a piece of Blueberry Cobbler with chunks of comforting cobbler crumbles. You'll definitely need to use your straw or a spoon to get the pieces from the bottom of the cup during the final moments of devouring the malt milk shake! So comforting!

We'll definitely be back to try the sorbets and ices. I really want to try the Mango and Mixed Berry sorbets as well as the Lemon Ice!

The pricing to portioning can't be beat. It's more affordable than all the competitors I've visited so it's perfect to take the family for a treat!

I’m a local and have visited this Handel’s location many times. One of the reasons I kept coming back, apart from the great ice cream, was the friendly and respectful attitude of the staff. It always made the visits pleasant and welcoming.

However, during my last two visits, I had an unpleasant experiences with one of the newer staff member. She was loud, feeling entitled, and came across as rude, which is completely opposite to the usual warmth and courtesy I’ve experienced here.

I sincerely hope Handel’s looks into this and provides some guidance to her. Ice cream is not just about taste, it’s about the overall experience, and that has always been one of Handles’ strongest qualities. I hope it returns to that standard soon.

Good ice cream with a few locations! Only complaint is always a long line and little seating.

Jonathan Rose

Amazing ice cream. Love their hot fudge brownie sundae.

Ice cream is good but the staff can be unfriendly and even have an attitude from time to time; especially when you ask to sample flavors. You have 30+ flavors on the menu and are constantly adding new ones, people are going to want to try them…

I get it, no one wants to be at work when it’s busy but that’s no reason to be rude to customers.
