About Handel's Ice Cream

Handel's Homemade Ice Cream is a beloved ice cream parlor that has been delighting customers since 1945. Known for its wide variety of flavors, the ice cream is often described as outstanding, providing a classic old-school ice cream parlor experience. The service is generally good, and during the summer months, customers can enjoy outdoor seating at the walk-up window with benches outside. Although lines can be long, especially in summer, the reasonable prices and high-quality ice cream make it a favorite spot for ice cream lovers in the Indianapolis area. The Birthday Cake flavor continues to be a customer favorite, alongside other popular options like coffee chocolate chip, coconut cream pie, and graham station. The shop also offers several vegan and non-dairy options, catering to those with dietary restrictions. While service may be slow at busy times or near the end of the season when staffing is limited, many find the overall experience well worth the wait. Parking is limited in the lot, leading most visitors to park on the street, which can become crowded during peak summer times. Despite some seating limitations, many believe it is probably the best ice cream in town, making it a must-visit for both locals and visitors.

Walk up counter service offering many varieties and flavors of high-quality homemade ice cream. There is usually a small wait because it is popular. During warmer months there is nearby outdoor seating. I usually visit Handel's when in Fishers.

really, super difficult to drive by this place w/o stopping for a hot fudge Sunday with couple of specialty flavors. hold the whip & cherry, just add more fudge,😋

Awesome ice cream and quick service!
