If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. Eric at Handles is hands down the reason I keep coming back. From the moment you walk in, he makes you feel like more than just a customerβhe genuinely cares about making your experience amazing. His positive energy is contagious, and he somehow makes even the best ice cream taste better. Eric goes above and beyond every single time, whether itβs helping you pick the perfect flavor, remembering your order, or just brightening your day with a smile. Itβs rare to come across someone who takes so much pride in what they do, and it truly shows. Handles is lucky to have him, and honestly, so are all of us who get to be served by him. If youβre stopping by, hope you get Ericβheβll make your day better (and your ice cream sweeter).

Monkey business is my favorite but they have lots of different options. Parking is easy. Staff is friendly and the line moves quickly. (Note:, they dont offer samples if thats important in your ice cream experience.)

I was pleasantly surprised that Handel's was opened on New Years Day (just a little later). So I got a single scoop of Graham Central Station on a plain waffle cone and it's all just so worth it for the price and so so delicious! I felt like I changed my mind 5 different times just waiting in line because there's so many delightful flavors!! I definitely want to return and maybe do the four-scoop sampler which is also very affordable. Would definitely recommend for dessert and for all the ice cream lovers out there.

Awesome staff! Warm, friendly, and efficient! Great ice cream shop. They make their ice cream in house. It was good, but nothing too mind blowing. Pretty wide variety of flavors. Staff is a little causal about what flavors have what ingredients, so proceed with caution if you have allergies. They have 3-4 vegan flavors which may help if you have allergies (mostly sorbets). Cup or cone. The other reviews State the portions are huge, but I just think they use multiple small scoops. The regular was about normal size. There is usually a line, but it moves fast. Do not be discouraged by any line. There are outdoor seats scattered around the location and parking lot. Lot is busy, and the spaces arenβt too clearly marked, but it all works. The business is like an old school ice cream stand. You go to the window and place your order, and then they hand you your treats. Not really an indoors per se. Dog and kid friendly. Recommend! Itβs about $5/regular ice cream. Four of us - $20 bucks; half cup, and half got cones. We got the sundae that was tasty too; $1 for nuts add on, comes with fudge, whipped cream, cherry, and ice cream of choice of course. They have Handle Hurricanes which are like

Handel's Homemade Ice Cream is a true gem that recently opened its doors in our town, and it has quickly become a beloved destination for families with kids in the neighborhood. As a parent, I can attest to its magnetic appeal and the joy it brings to children. My own kids are absolutely crazy about their shakes, and it's a delight to see their faces light up with each visit. What I personally appreciate about Handel's is the impressive range of flavors they offer. It's a haven for flavor explorers like myself, as there's always something new and exciting to try. From classic favorites to inventive creations, their ice cream selection never fails to impress. In particular, I find the ice creams with pieces of tart or cheesecake to be absolutely divine. The combination of creamy ice cream with those delectable additions creates a perfect harmony of flavors. The quality of the ice cream at Handel's is outstanding. It's evident that they take great care in crafting their frozen treats. The ice cream is rich, smooth, and bursting with flavor. Whether you prefer a traditional flavor or a more adventurous choice, you can expect exceptional taste and texture in every scoop.

Some of the best ice creamsπ¦close to LA π€€. I feel this location has so many delicious flavors. Iβve visited two other locations but by far this one is my new favorite π€©π€€π I got midnight madness which is dark chocolate ice cream with pieces of Reeseβs peanut butter and Oreo bits and the second flavor was coffee heath bar ππππ€€π€€π€€. My husband got banana crΓ¨me pie and strawberry cheesecake π€€π€€π€€ there are so many delicious flavors to try. FYI the portions are pretty big even for a cone. It was $50 for both of our cones, 2 flavors each just to give you an idea of the price but Iβm sure it depends on the item you get wether come, cup, pint, ice cream shakes etc. highly recommend this place though! Thereβs plenty of seating area, itβs outdoors and the area feels very safe to come with your family and/or friends. Canβt wait to come back during summer for some delicious π¦π€€.
