We got half peach sorbet and half espresso. The peach sorbet was definitely my favorite. It had a really fresh peach flavor and was refreshing without being too sweet. The espresso was good too. You could taste the coffee, but as someone who loves espresso, I just wanted the flavor to be a little stronger. Service was quick and friendly. The guy working there was attentive and got us taken care of without any issues. Overall, it was a great spot for gelato. I would definitely come back, especially for the peach sorbet.

The portion served by the friendly female was massive and I enjoy their ice cream since it's not overly sweet. There's tables and benches located outside the business, so I enjoyed my ice cream immediately. I'll definitely will be returning to a Handels somewhere soon.

As a longtime Handel's customer, this was one of the most disappointing experiences I've had…read more On the Fourth of July, my daughter and I arrived around 9:52 PM. There were approximately 15 people already ahead of us in line, so we waited our turn like everyone else. Around 9:58 PM, two employees came outside and announced that the two parties directly ahead of my daughter and me would be the last customers they would serve, and that everyone behind them needed to leave because they were "already closed." I understand it was close to 10:00 PM, and I completely respect that employees want to close on time after a busy holiday. However, the store was not technically closed yet, and there were no employees outside beforehand directing the line or letting customers know where the cutoff would be. Had someone been managing the line earlier, customers could have made an informed decision instead of standing there waiting. What upset me the most was what happened next. After my daughter, I, and several others walked away as instructed, the party directly behind us was allowed to remain in line and continue waiting. That was not the right move to make. If there was going to be a cutoff, it should have been applied fairly and consistently to everyone. Allowing people behind us to stay after telling us to leave made the situation feel unfair and left a very poor impression. This wasn't about missing out on ice cream it was about the lack of organization, communication, and fairness. As someone who has supported Handel's for years, I expected much better customer service. On a busy holiday like the Fourth of July, it's understandable that things get hectic, but that's exactly when clear communication and proper line management matter the most. If management has any questions about this review, I encourage you to review your security camera footage between 9:52 PM and 9:58 PM on the Fourth of July. It should verify exactly what occurred and how the line was handled. I sincerely hope this was an isolated incident, but I also hope management takes this as an opportunity to improve how closing procedures are communicated and enforced so future customers aren't put in the same situation.

It's a tight space inside, with two waiting chairs and actual tables are all outside. Why the 3 stars? The service was painfully slow. Understaffed for a busy Valentine's Day evening. Both workers were very kind and nice, but the one taking the order was exceptionally chatty to each customer despite a long line. The one manning the actual assembly station also had to make the taiyakis and didn't seem to know how to read the orders. He actually made our order wrong and took extra time to redo it.

When I visited, they had Horchata and cold brew coffee, among others. If you like toppings on your frozen yogurt, this is the place for you. I don't think I've ever been to a frozen yogurt place that had as many toppings options as this one does. It almost looks like part candy shop with how many toppings they have! The cashier was nice, and the price I paid for my frozen yogurt was reasonable. (Although I always laugh a little when a self-serve frozen yogurt place has a tip jar.) The only critique I have is that I wasn't sure where to get sample cups to try the different flavors , lots of places usually leave them out for customers to just grab. Overall, it's a nice shop and I recommend it.
