The best ice cream ever tasted! The service is great and even tiny ice creams for dogs and toddlers! They serve your ice cream in a prefered cup or cone and they give samples! The peep ice cream was amazing for easter. It's very peaceful too. Super cold for hot days! I Reccomend read more

Handel's Ice cream is the best hands down. Ordered chocolate pecan and praline pecan .... Lots of nuts in the ice cream and very creamy ice cream. Ice cream made on premises daily. If you love ice cream you'll love Handel's... there's a flavor for everyone! Friendly staff ! Parking on site. There are a few benches available to sit on . read more

This has to be some of the best ice cream I've ever had! With a huge variety of flavors and the option for a 4-flavor sampler, I think I just found my go-to spot in Ohio. Would definitely recommend you try the lemon bar flavor! read more

Delicious homemade ice cream. The single scoop is very large! And an easy stop off of I 80 if you're looking for break and a treat during a cross country drive. read more

Poor customer service. I called about a messed up order, and the person on the phone named Abby was being disrespectful and argued with me on the phone. It wasn't always like this here, and I don't appreciate how the business treats its customers. read more

This location is always amazing! Delicious ice cream as well as pleasant staff!! Always quick service even when they're busy.

Sometimes you just have to have Handel's. About a week ago, early March, pretty nice night. Warm. Was at Marc's and looked across the street. Yep. Handel's it is then! I got the large shake, wife got a large scoop in a cup. Used to be a splurge. But as high as Dairy Queen has brought their prices up for their powdered milk pseudo dairy-like products, Handel's is a clear winner every time these days! Let's see, let's see... Do I want the high milk fat super premium ice cream that is made on site as needed? Or do I want the stuff made of powdered packaged ingredients? And yes, I am aware that some DQ products come in liquid form in a large plastic sack. Delicious as DQ sounds, and I DO stop in occasionally since it is close to where I live in Lake Milton. When it comes down to just pure Taste and Texture, or TT's as I like to call them, the TT's are my go to choice for delicious dairy treats every time! So go to Handel's, and get those delicious TT dairy treats! read more

Handel's Ice Cream - Chocolate covered strawberry + chocolate chip cookie dough hurricane combo, guess you can say, AC's in - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Youngstown, Ohio

Classic spot for icecream with an expansive selection of flavors. Some of my favorite flavors here are cake batter, cotton candy confetti and salted caramel truffle. There are also many size options with a four choice scoop set being a great option for trying different flavors. Pricing is a bit much compared to your average Dairy Queen order but the flavors are definitely worth it. Parking: Available in the lot out front with many empty stalls most days. read more

Stopped on the way back from Chicago to Philadelphia and we all needed an ice cream treat. The line was long when we arrived, but moved fairly quickly. I had perused the menu online and was very sad when the woman in front of me ordered Key Lime Pie only to be told they'd just run out. I had been drooling over this option for 40 miles. Still, I ordered a NY Cheesecake scoop, and figured that would be fine. My friend was also disappointed that they didn't have all the flavors listed on their website. She has some food sensitivities and a lot of their lactose-free options were not in stock. She also substituted. Her son got the vanilla Oreo, which is just what he wanted. The ice cream was very, very good. Staff was friendly and helpful. Prices were super reasonable compared to our fancy ice cream shops in Philly. I got all three cups for a little over $10. But... My NY cheesecake tasted nothing like cheesecake. My friend tried it too and we agreed it was probably cookie dough instead. They were out of two thirds of what we wanted based on the website so we felt a little cheated. I will certainly go back if I'm in the area, but I'll keep this in mind. Note: probably the best ice cream near Cuyahoga National Park if you're looking for that. read more

We stopped here in the way home from shopping. This place is amazing. They have flavors for everyone to enjoy. The ice cream is homemade and is available In comes, bowls and a sampler pack. Prices are about average and is well worth stopping by to get a taste of a great treat read more

As I've said before, if you Love Handels, you will end up with Love Handles. I would know. What to get: Chocolate Malt w/Caramel (ice cream flavour or shake), Lemonade in summer How to improve: Slightly lower prices, and a more promotion of that particular flavour which is the best thing on the menu This was the first location of Handels I ever visited, and to this day it remains my favourite. It's also the original - providing further evidence that the original is usually the best (much like with Back To The Future and, well, me. So won't the real Fox E please stand up?) It's located a little ways East of a major highway, in the NW suburbs of Youngstown. Austintown is the name of the burb, and perfect is the description of the products. I definitely have my favourite, and it's the heavenly "Chocolate Malt W/Caramel" flavour, which can be served as either the best ice cream, or best shake, you may ever have. Certainly the best I've ever had from a chain restaurant, although Cook Out's Fresh Banana shake might protest. You also should try the excellent homemade lemonade in the summer (not available when it's cold), and anything else that takes your fancy (such as me). With its recognizable blue-and-white colours and an enormous number of chain locations now throughout the country, especially in OH and PA, its really cool to visit this, the original location and best, with the wonderful tastes and dreamy creamy products. Youngstown is an often-forgotten part of the world, but it will always be the home to Handel's - the best ice cream and milkshake chain in the country. When I'm famous, I will still get products from here, but I won't come and buy them myself... I'll have my Handel-ers come here and buy them for me. read more

Handel's has the best ice cream, but I won't be back. I got a quart of butter pecan and found someone's fake press on nail mixed in. I called the store, and the person apologized for the disgusting mistake. I also sent an email through their website. I never received a response. I don't want free ice cream. I want to know that people are wearing gloves when making the ice cream. I am 100% certain the fake nail did not belong to the person who packed the quart the day I bought it. read more

Lots of variety, fast service, friendly service, good ice cream in general go there you won't be disappointed

It's delicious and service is set up in a way that is as efficient as possible, with a nice environment. Could use a few more benches but overall great. read more

I'm not sure what Handel's can do wrong. Did someone say Pralines Pecan will make you (think about) slappin your mama. Notice I didn't say mine, my mama still puts the fear of God in me and I'm OLD. Handel's ice cream is TO DIE FOR and they have tons of flavors always at the ready. It's rich and made with quality incredients...no ice crystals here folks. This Handel's location is very welcoming, has ample parking available and the workers are very friendly. They allow you to sample the flavors to narrow down your decision. Be prepared though, they give you alot of ice cream and I think their prices are more than fair for the quality and amount of ice cream that you get. One tip, it's honestly better to just order in pints here. You save some money in the long run and (maybe) have some left over for another day. read more

Best selection around town, Baskin-Robbins and Dairy Queen has nothing on Handels flavors

Always great friendly service and Ice cream! Love the seasonal flavor changes! Always a go to! read more

Good Ice cream with good prices and good for an amazing day out. The service is good but they just hand you your stuff and go so you can't judge them on much. read more

Being originally from New Hampshire for the first 46 years of my life, then living in the Charlotte, North Carolina area for the next 4 years, moving up to Northwest Region of Pennsylvania for my late husband's job and living there for 5 1/2 years, finally we moved to Austintown, Ohio and I have been here just over 10 years now. So with saying that I can say without a doubt - hands down - no questions asked - that Handel's Ice Cream is the BEST Ice Cream I have ever eaten!!!!! Their Butterscotch Ripple is to die for! It is almost impossible to find Butterscotch in any store! If I was able to find it, I'm sure it would not be anywhere near as good as Handel's!!!! This is why Handel's has been around for so long! You can't beat the price and the quality! Everyone there is very pleasant to deal with and I've never had bad customer service! I usually go to the Austintown location but once in a while I will go to the one in Boardman if I am over that way. This is one of the first things I heard about upon first moving to Ohio! Without a doubt there is no other Ice Cream like it!!!! You will not be disappointed!!!!! Give it a try!!!!!! Pat read more

We like Graham Central Station and red skies at night ice cream. The service fast. It has a classic ice cream shop feel.

Best ice cream EVER!! And the people that work here are always awesome!! Lots of choices! Something for everyone! Would like to see lactose free tho! read more

Absolutely without a doubt would I recommend Handel's ice cream to anyone who doesn't already know about it. My favorite part is whenever I diet, all I do is call corporate and they help me with nutrition information. read more

Always a great experience and amazing ice cream! I recommend the hot fudge brownie sundae

Amazing chocoholic and meri's special mix. And I do mean amazing. Smooth taste with perfect sweetness. The chocoholic is equal to the finest chocolate ice cream I've ever had, which was in Singapore. Absolutely delightful five dollars for the tiniest littlest bit. This was maybe 250 for four times as much. Superb ice cream. read more

The three stars are more for the price than the product. Thier ice cream is the absolute best. Period. But the price now for a single scoop sugar cone is $4.50. that's insane period. Sorry Handel's, but you've priced this dude out... read more

The Banana ice cream is the best!! Would strongly advise to try it! Tastes just like banana cream pie!

Hands down THE best ice cream I have EVER had in my entire life! Chocolate cake batter is to die for! The 4 scoop sampler is my favorite. Being from New Hampshire, I don't get Handel's very often, but when I do, look out, I NEED it! I really wish NH ice cream shops would get the hint, they're not good, Handel's is good! read more

What can I say - this THIS is a true Youngstown icon/tradition/powerhouse! Too many options to go on here...skip a cone - get a pint, a quart or think ahead like this gal and get a 4 scoop sampler - then decide which ONE you need more of! No other ice cream compares to this creamy hard pack loaded with flavor, drop ins and ingenuity. I never mind coming home when I know this is down so many corners! read more
