“Yum, yum, yum. Very nice place with great flavors. I can really recommend mango, chocolate and salted caramel pretzel. Large menu with toppings and good stuff.Place is extremely clean and neat. No background music (but tv was on in the kids corner) so it feels a bit "empty".But over all a great place and we are definitely coming back.“

“Came here after a steak dinner for dessert and there was one kid working alone with a line.

Ice cream was delightful and the brownies in founder's favorite was yummy and not stale.

Place was somewhat clean but in betweem serving and creating different ice creams could of used better scraping on the stone. Aside from getting some straggler sprinkles that i did not krder in my ice cream service was great. He was fast and friendly but probably could use some help. Take a hint management.

Probably was there for like 15-20 minutes total due to waiting just under $10 for an ice cream that's not a pint is wild but that's the economy.“

“We came here and there was already a line waiting out the door. When we got to the front, there were a bunch of samples to choose from. Everything looked really good. I sampled the Panna Cotta and it was light, smooth, creamy, and sweet but not too sweet. I was very surprised actually at how much I liked it. I already had my two flavors in my mind, but I would definitely come back to try a scoop of that and an affogato.

I got a scoop of Espresso and Tiramisu in a cup with a waffle cone on top. Both flavors were absolutely delicious. I loved the texture of the gelato, it was so creamy. Prices were a little steep, but the quality is undeniable. I'd definitely come back to try more of their flavors.

Service was good, it was busy with just two of them there serving a bunch of families in line. But they were very helpful and pleasant. I can't wait to swing by again when I'm back in the area.“

“I was looking for things to try around town and found this place that boasts Date Shakes stating a must try while in town. I got one and it was good, not as thick as I was hoping but good flavor. However, on the sign I see they offer Mangonadas, one of my favorite drinks but also a Pinada; a Pineapple version with Dole whip. Now that is a must try. It's my new favorite drink. It's a great mix of sweet, sour and a bit of heat. Yummy. I also like the sprayers outside thir door to cool you off. A nice touch.“

“Has great ice cream—rich, creamy, and exactly what you expect from Handel’s. Portions are generous and the customer service is decent. The only downside is that this location doesn’t offer samples, even though other Handel’s locations do, which makes choosing flavors harder. Still a solid spot and worth stopping by“

“I have been to a majority of the Ben & Jerry's locations and the primary difference between this location and a majority of the rest is the woman by the name of Annemarie. I came in with my wife and Daughter and Annemarie wore a smile and made us feel more than welcomed. There was plenty of people for a Friday night but, she made each and every single person's experience feel amazing! My daughter could not decide a flavor she gets overwhelmed easily. Annemarie took the time to not only handle everyone else but also make the experience special for my daughter. I left that Ben & Jerry's with more than just an ice cream and my daughter now asks when we can go back and get more ice cream and see that nice lady (Annemarie).
My family and I will be back through summer not only for the amazing ice cream but the fantastic staff for making it special for not only for my daughter but for everyone else she smiled towards and interacted with!
Thank you Ben & Jerry's and thank you Annemarie!“

I sent an email and finally after a month Claudia replied called me on phone plus email . I spoke with Claudia and she made things right by me and was very apologetic. She sent me my whole order and a gift of their chocolate almond toffee popcorn . With that said I want to say the toffee was amazing everything was put together with nothing coming off . I want to say thank you so much . I’m one happy customer ❤️ They back up their product which is a plus . Once again Thankyou so much Claudia .“

“Stopped at Shields today. We had breakfast, followed by a walk around the gardens. So many trees had fruit on them, just going to waste. Signs all over saying "don't pick the fruit." Instead of letting the fruit rot on the trees, why not pick the fruit to sell or even donate to a food pantry? I was saddened seeing all the fruit going to waste.“
