Amazing selection of flavors and the cleanliness was on point! Will definitely go again since the service was great as well.

This is the second location I have been to in a different state. The setup and ice cream is exactly the same and consistent throughout. Topnotch to say the least. The service was friendly and helpful here as well. Give them a try and you won't be disappointed. read more

Very fair pricing for ice cream. There's not a whole lot of seating area, but service is generally very quick and easy. Noise level well generally echo quite a bit. Flavors (milk-based ones) generally feel kind of lackluster, too similar to one another without a clear distinction on the pallet. **** Four Scoop Sampler: --- Monkey Business: with my new tastes like vanilla with some chocolate and caramel but feels a bit too overly salted at times. --- Pistachio:: color is fine but flavor is weak and pistachio. Hardly any nuts in the ice cream --- Not Your Average Dough: Joe chunks are nice Lee embedded in the ice cream but just feels like another vanilla with dough. --- Horchata: probably the best of the four. Very standard but lacks the cinnamon flavor that is always essential. read more

They never disappoint. I don't know what's my fav to be completely honest. Not a huge fan of ice cream but it's very good . Some flavors are okay but the strawberry cheesecake is top tier . The blueberry cobbler is cool . read more

Came to this local ice cream shop tonight for a sweet treat and boy was it a treat! They had 48 different flavors to offer with even seasonal specials. Went with two of the more classic flavors tonight. Ooo dough and vanilla with Oreo. Delicious! Additionally, I had a chance to meet the owner Matt. He was a very friendly guy and was very hospitable. This spot is very family friendly and was a very busy night. Definitely should stop in for a treat if you're in the local area!! read more

Handel's is the best over cream shop by far! I took my grandaughter after a day together and she loved it. This is our second Handel's experience and we were not disappointed. The service was great. There was an issue with my order as the ice cream had chocolate in it...not obvious by the name. I have a severe sensitivity to caffeine and they gladly offered me an exchange. As per my previous experiences at other ships, this was a bright, fresh and clean store. I will always return to Handel's. read more

*******HEAVEN ON EARTH WITH ANGELS********* My 1st visit, OH MY GOODNESS. The staff is simply amazing. The minute I walked through the door two employees was walking from the back. I was greeted by TODD, he was absolutely amazing. What stood out the most to me about TODD was his willingness to help and be patient with my request for samples and decision about my choice of flavors. He provided his favorite which was BROWNIE DOUGH which is Chocolate/Vanilla with pieces of brownie and cookie dough IT WAS MAGNIFICENT. You may wonder why My 2nd choice was Strawberry Cheesecake chunk which is strawberry ice cream and cheesecake chunks. The strawberry ice cream was very strong flavored for strawberry lovers. The crowd was never ending. The atmosphere is absolutely amazing for a Sunday fun day evening with the family. There were no seats inside or outside after I was seated. It is a family's favorite coupled with HEAVEN ON EARTH FOR KIDS. The cones and scoops are like supersized and delicious. I am excited to go on my next journey in visiting again and trying new flavors. read more

Service with a smile. When we were there many of the flavors were not available but we did have delicious creamy icecream of the flavors we did purchase. I would love to return and be able to try other flavors. read more

My friend and I both just enjoyed a nice dinner at North intalia Katy, went over to Handles to grab dessert, there was a little bit of weight time which is okay, once we made it up to the front of the line, the blonde girl that was supposed to take in our Order did have an attitude, any questions we asked, she just pointed towards the menu and had a annoyed look on her face, we asked to try to samples as this was our first time visiting handles, the lady had an attitude when asked for a sample, she did not care to greet us, the entire transaction we had with her since the moment we walked up to the line up until we paid for our ice cream cones was horrible, she seemed very annoyed, like she did not want to be there, my friend, and I both left with her ice cream cones in hand, disheartened on the customer service, the ambience was decent. I am hoping that MANAGEMENT does see this review, and take it seriously, other than the poor customer service we received everything else was great read more

Amazing, freshly made ice cream. Staff was helpful and friendly, samples provided upon request. I would seriously recommend studying the menu to decide what you want. I stood in the back for like 10 minutes on my first visit trying to decide what I wanted because there were so many options. I've been getting the chocoholic peanut butter ripple, but last night I tried the orange cream dream that my son had and was blown away. If you like the classic creamsicle popsicle flavor, get ready to be impressed. The Ambiance is...well... there isn't much inside. It's very plain looking. With ice cream this good though, who cares? Hands down the best ice cream I've ever had in Katy Tx. read more

Saw this new spot on Instagram and it was in Katy so had to check it out. Good parking availability. When we walked in there was no line and out of nowhere it seemed like the whole city ok katy showed up for ice cream. The line stayed wrapped for hours. They give you samples and ALOT of ice cream. It taste like regular ice cream..nothing that differentiates really. But they have lots of flavors for these hot upcoming summer days we are about to have! read more

The ice cream is uniquely delicious and there are so many flavor options! The service and location still need a lot of work but I guess you can always pick up & go. It would help to maybe have more experienced managers available & visible all the time. The staff I've seen are just very young read more

I just don't understand the hype of this place. The icecream is not good at all. Blue Bell and HEB's brand taste far better than this. It didn't even taste homemade. The only thing that was good was the waffle bowl. I definitely will not be going back. read more

Went for the first time - ice cream is amazing and the associate assisting us was also very nice. They got plenty of options and sizes. We were able to work out to split an order into two cones for two little kids. Will be retuning! read more

This is probably some of the best ice cream I have ever had. First of all you walk in and everyone is so nice. Then you can taste any of the flavors you want and there are so many, it's hard to choose. So we tried the banana cream pie and the buckeye ones and all I can say is wow!!! The ice cream is so soft and very tasty. They do not skimp on the size or flavor. So a regular medium is 2 scoops and a large is 3 scoops, The only issue I had was no seating. They have some small benches along the wall, which aren't very comfortable or for larger people. They do have outside seating. I would highly recommend this amazing dessert stop, run don't walk. It's so good and tasty!! read more

I don't know what I was expecting, but whatever it was, I was blown away when I actually went! First of all, get the small. The small is definitely plenty of ice cream, even to share. When they say they give you a lot, they really do give you A LOT. They have so many different flavors to try and yes you can ask for samples. They had a nice banana foster and some chocolate flavors that were delicious. I just can't get over how much they give you! It was just a great experience and a fun place to grab some dessert after dinner! read more

5/5 recommend. Awesome service and amazing ice cream. I got vanilla with strawberry and it tasted splendid!

super yummy ice cream.i love the poster that shows how many ice creams tall u are .and the service was fast.stafff where friendy read more

Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream - Yummmmmyyyy ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Katy, Texas

Lots of options of ice cream that you can also sample. The smallest offering is still three scoops of ice cream! They have all the cone offerings that you can want - cup come, sugar cone, waffle cones, and waffle bowl. They even come dipped if you wanted! The scoop sizes are bigger if you want a medium or large cone. There are also milkshakes, banana splits, ice cream sandwiches and other things to try! We loved our first visit here and can't wait to come back to try other flavors. It was pretty crowded for how cold it was outside and the random time of day, so we aren't the only ones wanting ice cream. :) read more

Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream - Small Banana cream pie waffle cone, $5.70 - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Katy, Texas

So, yeah, I think Handel's ice cream is very smart. They offer a wide variety of ice creams. Also, they have vegan options that are not just basic which is neat. If you ever had to pick the flavor you want, it requires you to take your time to read the description and choose one, two, or a few flavors so you don't just go overboard. The ice cream bases are pretty interesting in flavor and texture. I'm interested in the ingredients and what they do during the process of making the ice cream to make it different than others. The first thing I tasted...... well let me tell you the flavors I got. I ordered the mint chocolate chip ice cream- mint ice cream with chocolate flakes (it could use a lot more chocolate flakes) and the strawberry cheesecake chunk- Vanilla ice cream with strawberry swirl and chunks of cheesecake. The mint chocolate chip was refreshing. Mostly because it tastes like ice cream water or ice cream popsicle texture.The ice cream just wasn't creamy at all. It melts super quick. I am pleased that neither ice creams were very sweet. The strawberry cheesecake was good as the strawberry swirl and the cheesecake mask the flavor of the bland ice cream. Despite all this, I stubbornly want to try 2-3 other flavors and see if they are any good but it won't be anytime soon. read more

To get straight to the point: the absolute best ice cream I have ever had in my life. Not even an exaggeration. This place is a must try. You won't regret it. I like my ice cream flavors to be flavorful and distinct, yet not too sweet or icy in texture. This place has figured out the exact balance of what I have been looking for. I have tried so many ice cream places across major in cities in the US, and I can't believe the best is right here in cinco ranch. Just unbelievable, I can't stop thinking about it. They have so many flavors here. I have tried mango, coffee, and strawberry cheesecake. All were excellent, and I still can't decide which one is my favorite. They are that good. If you care about the ambience and service, then those are excellent as well. The store is bright and clean, the employees are patient and pleasant. Might not be for a large group though, since seating inside is limited. But who cares, the ice cream here is the best in the world, and that's all that matters. Amazing. read more

Ice Cream. Who doesn't LOVE ice cream? And the new Handel's franchised store near Target was an exceptionally pleasant surprise and a big HOME Run! Too many flavors to count, much less try, we found the flavor, consistency, and CLEANLINESS of Handel's to be a hearty welcome to Katy. I had a Dutch Apple Pie flavor which soared. And the "small portion" was more than enough. I had to take some home! Amazing that they offer take out. Call or on-line oder and they will have your order ready for pick up. Obviously, one must then haul-ass home. I found Audra and her team to be genuinely interested in our ice-creamy experience. My only suggestion would be some better sit-down-and-enjoy areas and maybe some tables outside. Handel's has eclipsed La Argentina as my GO-TO confectionary choice! https://handelsicecream.com/store/cinco-ranch/ read more

The owner was so nice & the ice cream was delicious! I loved the chocolate peanut butter. I highly recommend it.

Love it! You walk away wanting another scoop, love the vanilla cherry. Just talking about it, I'm going this pm! Y'all go check it out! Promise you'll love it! read more

I've had Handels in California and was so excited to see it here, as always the ice cream is beyond delicious but the customer service is was great here as well, friendly, quick and attentive! The manager Matt was great, thank you for running a great community ice cream shop! read more

The people were nice however I ordered cookie dough ice cream and there was one tiny piece of cookie dough in my entire bowl. Go somewhere else if you are a cookie dough lover because they don't put any in theirs! read more

My husband and I dropped into Handel's for an impromptu after dinner treat. The quality of the ice cream is AMAZING and the combination of flavors I had was so delicious (banana cream pie and chocoholic chunk). I liked how thick and creamy it was, and I even asked my hubs if we could come back again over the weekend (we went on a Thursday ). Love Handel's, a must if you're ever in the area and craving something sweet! read more

Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream - Banana cream pie and Chocoholic chunk - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Katy, Texas

The ice cream was tasty and service was quick. I went to get a shake for my daughter and a pint for my hubby. Good selection of flavors.

This ice cream is my current favorite in Katy. Buckeye blitz and Graham central station are incredible. A "small" portion is still a pretty big serving. 5 stars! read more

My wife and I took a little road trip to try Handel's Homemade Icecream in Katy. My wife grew up in Youngstown, Ohio where the Original Handel's is! Just to compare to the original! While entering the store the was a father with 3 young children sitting at a table eating ice cream while he got his order and paid. Also 3 young lady's in front of us waiting for their turn next. There was only one young lady working behind the counter that we could see. She was very patient and helped the man finish his order and paid for his order. The next 3 young lady's each ordering separately got their ice cream. Then from the back room a young man came out and wiped under a mixer but never helped the young lady with the people in the store! My wife order was a waffle cone with 2 scoops one scoop of ice cream with buckeye's and one with butter pecan. I got the black cherry malt. They both were great and the young lady was very pleasant! My wife told her that she grew up on the Original Handel's back in Ohio and was very pleased with the ice cream and the way this young lady handled the customers with her beautiful smile! Only 2 negatives from me, the young man should had helped her when she was busy and the need a longer straws when you get the biggest malt! The straw was to little! We will be back and hope if your in the Katy Grand Parkway and Westheimer area you will stop and give it a try! read more

Came in right before closing and I'm glad I chose this place! This ice cream was so creamy and airy. I came with my son and I got a waffle cone with mint Oreo cookie and my son got a waffle bowl with mint chocolate chip. Big scoops and fair prices. There are benches on one side of the cashier and two tables off to the sides. Good for a families and gatherings. I recommend this place for a sweet treat to cool down with or too finish off diner. read more

Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream - Both our ice creams mixed. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Katy, Texas

I really enjoyed the ice cream tonight. It was delicious and I thought it was a great value. I have one suggestion though. If the scoopers would focus on quickness a bit more the line wouldn't get so backed up. The line grew until I had to asked for a pardon to get yothe door. I could feel frustration amongst the ice cream eaters. It was very frustrating watching the scoopers slowly scoop the ice cream while they're carrying on conversations with each other. One scooper I think forgot what she was scooping and had to ask the customer for a second time want he wanted. read more

At this point it's an addiction. I decided to be spontaneous and try cheesecake for the first time and I absolutely love it. The staff is nice and attentive, you won't regret it. read more

Huge selection of flavors. Prompt and polite service. Reasonable prices. I wish there was a little more seating inside but overall good vibe. Didn't get a picture because as soon as we stepped outside our cones started melting... Only improvement would be that since the small is really 2 scoops I would love to be able to get 2 flavors instead of just 1. read more

Tried this place in San Diego Ca and Palm Springs. OMG It's the BEST ice cream ever!! Please open more locations. Richmond or Sugar Land, please. The service in Palm Springs was much better than SD. Both locations don't have indoor seating. I haven't been to the Katy location but the one in PS is awesome. Anyway don't let the low star ratings keep you away. Again, some people just suck!! GO try this place!! You will not be disappointed. Yum Yum!! read more

Used to love this in Ohio but: - cone was stale af - tables (only a few) were FILTHY - ice cream had freezer burn taste This is just not as good as the original, which is sad. read more

So many delicious flavors to choose from! If you can't decide, get the 4 scoop sampler.

Loved their ice cream when I lived in Youngstown, Ohio. So happy that they have expanded to Katy Tx. Fudge ripple and black cherry are a couple of my favorites. Generous portions too. read more
