I suppose my opinion may be biased considering that I grew up eating Handel's ice cream from the original store in Youngstown, Ohio. To this day, I feel it's the best. I absolutely love good ice cream, and I'm always happy to give any place a shot. There are many that have great ice creams, but none like Handel's. My all time favorite is "Chocolate Malt & Caramel" and next would be the seasonal "Coconut Cream Pie". My kids love the "Cotton Candy" and "Cookie Dough" flavors. I haven't tried one that I didn't enjoy! Parking: Always easy & close by. Kid-friendliness: They make cute sundaes, and have flavors that appeal to most children. Wheelchair accessibility: Their stores are always easily accessed. Usually, they're level with the parking lot.

The best ice cream I’ve ever had. Anywhere. All of the flavors are good, especially the ones with fresh fruit in them. The seasonal flavors are amazing. They use super premium ingredients and it shows. Special shout out to the banana, split hurricane, the chocolate peanut butter ice cream, and the butter pecan ice cream. So good that you would never guess that this is a chain.

We came ten minutes before closing out of a sudden craving feeling of ice cream, they took our order delightfully and everything is tasty. The strawberry pineapple milkshake is apparently not on the menu, didn’t realize that but they made it and it was delicious. They even put the extra amount in a small cup. Good size as well. Will definitely come back again.

We're the only family that craves ice cream in January. Not many places are open at the time of the year but Handel's is! They have a thousand flavor combinations and even though my family made fun of me for just getting strawberry ice cream, every flavor they have tastes great. Handel's ice cream is better than Dairy Queen hands down. They are family owned as well. So do yourself a favor in January or July and treat yourself to some ice cream;

This location does not put enough stuff in their ice cream. I always get pints from this location and when I get home there is never anything in the ice cream. I got cookie dough the other day and there were maybe 2 chunks of cookie dough in the entire pint and the rest was vanilla ice cream. This happened again yesterday when I ordered a pint of banana cream pie, no cookie pieces just banana ice cream. Very disappointed.

"I had a delightful visit to this ice cream shop last week, and I couldn't resist trying their chocolate ice cream. It was pure indulgence! The rich, creamy chocolate flavor was simply irresistible. The guy named Michael who served us was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The shop itself has a charming and cozy atmosphere, making it a perfect spot for a sweet treat. I left with a big smile on my face, thanks to Michael's excellent service. I'll definitely be returning for more delicious treats!"
