    They have a cool walk up window to place your order. ordering was super easy and they had great recommendations. they have outside seating with tables for your enjoyment with ice cream. I love this place and all that it features

    Best ice cream in town. When we are here in this area we always get Hansel's ice cream. Kids love the selection of ice cream. I little pricey but it's worth every Penney. Yum yum

    I ordered a medium dish with vanilla raspberry chip and chocolate raspberry truffle but where's the rest of my vanilla raspberry???

    I love Handal's and I will continue to support this business but maybe next time when someone does a DoorDash order and you guys are out of a flavor just let the dasher know so that we can choose a different flavor because this is kinda ridiculous.

    The Watermelon Ice is awsome....Made fresh in store everyday. Better than the stuff from Mustache Mike. That's always freezer burned or melted and then refrozen

    Amazing customer service and the ice cream is so good! They do have drive thru service which is a big plus for me and also have outdoor seating.

    Had a great experience Rosa service great and the ice cream was delicious. Always recommend this place. Best place in Palm Springs.

    Nice place on the corner Jackson and Varner near chipotle and Dave's hot chicken. Seating: 3 outside picnic tables that are covered with umbrellas and three long benches for outside seating. There is no inside seating. Lots and lots of choices but you cannot have a sample... so, I ordered what I thought would be good, and it is very very sweet... So I guess I learned that chocolate peanut butter brownie, and mud pie are very, very sweet. Home made though. Hubby liked his... chocolate chip cookie dough, and salted caramel. It was night when we came and it's very cold outside... But it's still fun and the bites of ice cream that are not infiltrated by fudge monsters and cookie crumbles tasted good. I'll have to try again in the daytime and also order something that doesn't have very many things added... Vanilla Oreo cookie looks pretty yummy from the picture. If you have been here and have a favorite, send me a compliment/note, and tell me which are your favorites that I should try. Thank you in advance.

    Disappointed

    Disappointed that Indio Handels do not mix my cheesecake bites with my blueberry cobbler ice cream. How will I mix this cheesecake bites in a full pint of blueberry cobbler? Lady at the counter was nice but not satisfied with this experience.

    Hands-down, the best ice cream I have ever had totally value for money. I also tried their shakes. They were amazing.

    Excellent ice cream and top level service. They run the misters on hot days. Make your next stop when you are in Indio or Coachella-bound at Handel's Ice Cream in North Indio. Been eating ice cream all over the country and this is some of the best! Many flavors to choose from, and they make the ice cream on site daily. Don't sleep on this!!!!

    If you find yourself in North Indio, there is one spot you absolutely cannot skip. After a family…read moresushi dinner this past Sunday night (April 19th), we decided to see if the local hype around Better Ice Cream was justified. Spoiler alert: it definitely is. First Impressions & Atmosphere The moment we walked in, the first thing I noticed wasn't just the display cases--it was how clean the place was. You could literally smell the freshly mopped floors, and every table was shining. It's rare to see a high-traffic dessert spot look that sharp on a busy weekend night. Service Under Pressure There was only one young lady behind the counter, and despite the place being packed, she was a total pro. She was incredibly attentive and managed to get everyone's order--including our group's--completed flawlessly without breaking a sweat. That kind of service is hard to find, especially when a shop is that busy. The Main Event: The Flavors The ice cream itself was amazing, but the real showstopper for me was the Orange Julius. It isn't pictured, but it was the highlight of the night. One sip took me straight back to my childhood--it was perfectly creamy, frothy, and hit all the right nostalgic notes. The Verdict Whether you're finishing off a meal or just looking for a weekend treat with the family, this place delivers. Great vibes, spotless environment, and top-tier treats. Pro Tip: If you're looking for a trip down memory lane, get the Orange Julius. You will not be disappointed!

We also ordered fountain drinks and ice cream cones, and the total was very reasonable, especially considering the generous portion sizes. The employees were friendly, quick, and attentive, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere was very cute! It reminded me of being a kid again, walking into an old candy store.
