“What a delightful and delicious surprise! We were out looking for some interesting ice cream and stumbled on this place. 6 flavors of soft serve. We both loved the Vietnamese Coffee! I got another flavor Yakukt (tart yogurt) and hubby got the coffee and condensed milk flavor.
The owner took the time to explain each flavor and give us a taste sample of 4 flavors. For a Friday night it was packed and a line out the door, but totally worth it. Great vibes inside!“

“When you have gotten to Handels, YOU HAVE ARRIVED! The creamiest, most flavorful, fair-priced, delicious ice cream ever. I feel like congratulating first timers when I hear they haven't been there before. You won't be sorry, rain or shine. I promise!“

“First time here, loved the ice cream!
It tasted better than other ice creams I've had. I ordered the pistachio and praline ice cream scoops on a waffle cup. The pistachio nuts were so good! Overall, I was impressed with the quality of the ice cream. It tasted more authentic than the other places I've been to. Customer service was good too.
They had outdoor seating but it was too hot so I enjoyed my ice cream in my car with the A/C on.“

“I don't crave ice cream often but when I do, I expect nothing but the best. My girlfriend recommended we go to this spot because it's been a staple in the area over the years.
I ordered their banana split and it was THEBOMB.COM. I 100% recommend this spot but keep in mind that this place is CASH ONLY.“

“The bolo bao ice cream sandwich was the bomb! I had it with ube ice cream. The garlic fries - lots of fresh garlic with a side of bomb lemon aoili and house sauce! The best! Passionfruit green tea was perfect for the hot weather! So cute inside too! It's a smaller space and a one man show. Everything is made fresh so please be patient - it's worth the wait! Great service! It's a hidden gem to the right of BofA in the plaza. — at CrispyandFluffed.“

“Decided to come here after dinner because our son had been telling us we needed to try it out. Even though there was a long line out the door, it actually moved pretty fast! There was only one person working the counter and serving the whole crowd, but they were definitely hustling.
They have a lot of really funky and unique flavors to choose from. We ended up trying the Cookie Monster (served in a donut!) and the Ube. Both were really solid—the ice cream is high quality and definitely explains why this place is so popular.
The process is simple: you just pay on the iPad and then grab your ice cream. Definitely a cool spot to check out if you're in Pasadena and looking for a sweet treat!“

“If you offered me this ice cream 1 million times I would accept it 1 million times… It is so delicious. I got the pure milk flavor with black sugar drizzle, PERFECTION. I taste tested the dole whip, and it was also delicious. The texture of the soft serve is exactly what I was looking for. 100% will be back. The staff was so nice and they even have a free topping bar… Really cute little shop!!“

“I wish they made Thrifty ice cream with out sugar for diabetes. The could make it with stevia, malitol or erithratol.“
“First time coming here and it was a pleasant experience. I got the standard 2 half scoops with Texas Sheet Cake and Salted Peanut Butter with Chocolate Flecks and they were both very rich and creamy. I got it in a waffle bowl and the portion size was fine but it was a bit expensive for $10. They do have dairy free and vegan options which is great. Also, the staff were very friendly and patient with us which we greatly appreciated. Would consider coming back.“

“This is my favorite place to get cookies from! Every visit is a great experience, the cookies are always fresh, delicious, and consistently hit the spot. On top of that, the customer service is always amazing. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and makes you feel valued every time you walk in. It’s definitely my go-to spot whenever I’m craving something sweet!“
“I recently came into the shop and was surprised by how fast they attended me! I would assume cutting fruit to the order would take longer, but they made it look easy. The crepes were delicious! Forsures will be having them when I go back to El Monte! 8.1.23“

“Riquísimos rapados los mejores !!!! Son nuestros favoritos mmm“
“Came over because I saw that they offered a lot of the Asian store ice creams, but there weren’t that many and it was per piece. They do have a good selection for wholesale ice cream. So if you want to buy in bulk this is a good place. Otherwise the prices are the same as if you go to an Asian market like 99 ranch, Fukuya or duo duo. They do have snacks and candies too.“

“I went in on Tuesday, the new owners were in back of me. I was telling the cashier how disappointed my daughter was, we came in on monday and it was closed. Well the new owners, gave me a couple cookies for free. That was so awesome of them. My daughter was so happy and she said" Thank you so much!"“

“The flavors were great! I think most if not all of them are thrifty flavors. The place was nice and clean and honestly a pretty fair price for the amount of scream you get. I only got the scoops, nothing speciality, but it was great and I will definitely be going back.“

“Update:
Stopped by this cute spot again today and tried their ceremonial hojicha drinks — and honestly, so good.
We got the iced hojicha latte and a hojicha affogato, and both were super smooth, earthy, and not overly sweet. The latte had that perfect roasted flavor, and the affogato was such a fun treat — creamy, rich, and topped with a fluffy swirl that looked as good as it tasted.
The ordering area is bright and clean, and their menu board makes everything look extra tempting. If you love matcha or hojicha (or just want to switch things up from regular coffee), this place is definitely worth a stop.
Would totally come back to try the matcha affogato next time. 💚
We ordered “chunk and swirls” and “caramel fudge cashews”. They are so good, so satisfying. Highly recommended these two flavors. (Sorry my husband ate it all before I can take a picture of his)“

“My favorite place to go when I’m craving something sweet! The treats are always delicious, but what really makes it special is the staff. The employees are so friendly — you can tell they actually enjoy being there. Sometimes I see them chatting with customers like they’ve known them forever (in the best way). It’s not just service, it’s good vibes.“

“This is one of my favorite places for gelato! I prefer gelato over soft serve ice cream anytime, and the selection here is amazing. They have an extremely large selection which make it a challenge every time my family and I love all the flavors. The pistachio is excellent, the lemon is perfect, the pumpkin pie which i tried last was delicious and tasted exactly like pumpkin pie. This place is our go-to for gelato. The prices are reasonable too. A must try for everyone.“

“Friendly people run this place, the ice cream is great with Middle Eastern flavor ! But this place is a wholesaler, you can only get it from one of the markets they sell to, i.e. Pasha Market, Maison Rafi, Tropicana International Market, etc.“
“I love coming here for years ever since I was a kid, love the great service and good laughs I get when I’m here. Best Shakes and ice cream around good priced and also refreshing water and water supplies. Recommend coming when you craving a refreshing tasty shake. I always try to bring someone whenever I have a chance so they know to come.“
“I believe yesterday was their grand opening so today I made my way over there to show my support. I filled up my water jug (75. cents) and I got myself a delicious raspado de tamarindo ($5). They have dairy and water based paletas, smoothies, aguas frescas, chips, thrifty ice cream, and they make sandwiches too!“

“Afters has been my favorite ice cream place ever since moving to Cali back in 2018. I've tried multiple flavors, but keep coming back to the Salty O's (as a milkshake, and often with some caramel thrown in). I've tried and enjoyed the Ube Brownie, cookie monster, dark matter brownie batter, and the milk & cereal.
All solid tasty options that I would get again. For a friend's bday 🎂 I plan on getting them an Afters ice cream cake.
If you haven't already, drop by and give them a try.“

“My fave frozen yogurt spot in Pasadena. Try the new butter pecan light ice cream!!“
“5 stars for the service but omg we just came to try the Tiger Milk Tea with boba and oh boy avoid at all costs. Whoever thought of it had a great idea and presentation(minus the vanilla scoop making it look like chunks of cheese floating around your tea) but awful awful execution. Also did not know the brown sugar boba was popping boba and it just felt like exploding gobs of caramel with each boba, very unpleasant. Get something else!!Also big sad there's no bubblegum flavor ice cream. :(“

“Delicious homemade pies! I've tried the key lime, berry chess, and the carrot cake, and all were so good. They also have a lot of unique candy (including several Swedish candy options) and other gifty things for anyone who loves sweets or cute stuff. Great shop!“
