22 Best Ice Cream Shops in Huntington Beach

“Handels is awesome but this location provides a good but not great experience relative to the others I have been to (Redondo and Manhattan beaches), ice cream is good (maybe slightly less tasty than other locations) but portions are smaller and service less genuine than other locations - I guess this is down to it being in a more touristy location/town“

“Delicious ice cream and best red bean paste! We can’t wait to go back!“

“What a fun surprise to discover this delicious treat in Huntington Beach! My kids used to take me to the Apopka, Florida location and I knew everything was the best.

And this location lived up top those expectations. There was a woman and her kids in front of me, and the scooper was so kind to them, and had a lovely conversation with the mom. He didn't need to, but he genuinely seemed interested and treated them as the most important customers, which I loved watching.

Of course the ice cream was delicious, but hard to choose what to choose. I went with three scoops so I didn't have to!

Nothing but great things to say about this location - wish they had one closer to me, but I will search them out on my travels.“

“I had the black cherry shake one of the best shakes I ever had will definitely recommend it to anyone my girlfriend had the strawberry shake and it didn’t disappoint us they were both good. The donuts are delicious made to order hot and fresh 🤤. I love the peanut butter and their cinnamon one. Can’t wait to go back and try other items.“

“Shaved ice and Dole Whip!!!!“

“Such a great piece full place to go to weather just to walk around yourself, walking your dog, hiking, sports or just laying down having a picnic with someone special you'll completely enjoy it as if you was the only one there but there are many people enjoying their time just the same.“

“This location on Springdale and Warner is my new go to for Birthday cakes! I’ve been to another BR and the service and quality was terrible! I highly recommend ordering from this location bc the options are many and the customer service was amazing! I was treated as if I was purchasing something much more expensive. The price was affordable and the family loved the cake. The decorating was also exactly what we wanted! They were very helpful with their recommendations as well! Thank you to BR on Springdale and Warner!“

“Best cotton candy characters!!! If you have a kiddo or love cotton candy, you have to visit this place at least once. It never disappoints. The staff is friendly, quality is superb, temperature controlled environment. It can get busy when it opens so get there early or be prepared to wait 30-60 minutes. Pro Tip: Go later in the afternoon 4ish and there is usually little to no wait times.“

“An Absolutely Amazingly, Freshly prepared, Gelato or Sorbet Popsicle, on a Stick.....dipped in chocolate and toppings for a unique experience....You MUST try the multitude of FRESH flavors...Enjoy!“

“One particularly hot night my mom and I searched, “Best Gelato near me” and the top result was Mangiamo! After eating the gelato 3 times in a row, we can definitely say that title is well earned! The Double Chocolate flavor is for sure the best chocolate flavored Gelato in the whole state of California; not to mention it’s totally authentic too! The server is also incredibly kind and pleasant to talk to. Overall, this place is such a phenomenal experience and we would highly recommend it for vacationers and gelato connoisseurs alike!“

“I was lucky enough to get a free sample of a chocolate chip cookie at crumbl and it was delicious! The young man who helped me out at the register was very accommodating and friendly! Here to try other flavors and I'm going to ask if they have vegan versions of cookies as well!“

“Highly recommend Bacio di Latte!! The flavors are pretty unique, but you can't go wrong with any of them. The staff were really friendly and helpful, shoutout to Calvin who had wonderful service and kindly gave a couple of us cups of water! This is the best gelato I've had and they don't skimp on the portions. I got regular size.“

“The flavor the simplicity and quite frankly I have bough loads of this stuff but I have tried for a month and cannot. The site tells me it is down for maintenance. Now please tell me are you still in business or what ? I am getting the DT'S from not having any.“

“Absolutely delicious will definitely be coming back for more!“

“Friendly helpful servers. They happily mix blizzards and always do the cup flip so you can see how great your treat will be. I almost always have the chocolate ice cream chocolate dipped cone. Clean shop and nice indoor seating. Parking is right outside the door. Great quiet place for all to enjoy.“

“Yummy tart yogurt. Lots o’ toppings too.🍦“

“Everyone that works there is always friendly and helpful! Keep up the good work you guys �“

“Great options in base and toppings that are not commonly offered elsewhere at a great price! I’m a health nut so I appreciate the selection of GF granola, different chia pudding flavors, variety of nut butters, etc. that’s already included (no extra costs). They provide the best bowls at the lowest price!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Stopped by Cold Stone Creamery in Huntington Beach today and had a great experience. Nikki took care of me, super friendly and chill. She made my lemon strawberry ice cream just right, and everything tasted fresh and organic. The ice cream was fire! Big shoutout to Nikki for the amazing service, really appreciate you!“

“After a workout I had to try to toxic flesh it was extremely delicious but I got it without ice I think ice might be better if you’re somebody that likes a freshness feel to it. Me? I enjoy room temperature goodness because I like to drink it all at once and let me tell you this tasted delicious the staff was incredibly friendly the girl behind the register it was a lot of fun and the guy that made my juice was really really thorough. These types of drinks it makes it well worth it to enjoy the rewards program and they have an app that you can download easily with a QR code come by and try them out I certainly enjoyed it!“

“Amazing! Wonderful quality at wonderful prices with such a cute flair!“
