On a rainy Saturday we took our family to get some ice cream to lift our spirits and this…read moredefinitely did the trick! The flavor selections were unique and delicious. The server was adamant about us tasting the flavors before we made our selection! We got the strawberry chunk, mango sorbet, salty little secret, vanilla & pistachio. The pistachio tasted so fresh and creamy, and the salty little secret was something I'd get a pint of and eat the whole thing at home! I loved every bite, I will say it was a little expensive but this definitely a well worth it splurge.

Stopped in here for a visit to try out some of their flavors. Walking in, there wasn't a line, but…read morethere was a big group that came in after us. Since we were new, we let the other people go first. The line moved very slow in total. It took about 15 minutes before it was our turn to sample their flavors. For me personally, I was a bit bummed to see all these delicious flavors that were available, but I wasn't able to sample many of them because I have a dairy allergy. So that being said, they only had one flavor that I could try at the time I did appreciate that they had a laminated sheet of paper that listed all of the allergens and all of their flavors, so anyone that had an allergy could quickly see which flavors they could try and which ones they should avoid. During my visit, I ordered their mint basil sorbet which was very good. At five dollars per scoop, it's definitely on the pricier side. However, the ambience inside this ice cream shop was nice and I could see myself hanging out here socially if they had more dairy free options. But overall, I had an okay experience here. The workers were very friendly and knowledgeable. They are located in a small plaza with ample parking. It was also easy to get in and out of the parking lot, which I think is a big plus.

I pulled up to Sweet Retreat thinking to myself, "This is much further into Liberty Hill than I…read morethought it would be, I might not be making a return trip." As I walked in the door, I was met with smiling faces and a beautifully decorated old time ice cream shoppe. It was welcoming and clean and simply lovely! Gabby and Mariah were the sweet treats that served me today. They *helped* me walk out the door with much more than I anticipated. Yep, they sold me with the samples! I came in for one scoop of vegan ice cream, and instead I left with a whole lot of Italian Ice... a Carrot Mango pint and a special September Sundae made with Electric Watermelon! The sundae had Electric Watermelon Italian ice (tastes like a jolly rancher) mangoes, pineapple whip, chamoy and Tajin. Oh it was pretty too...My tastebuds were so ready for that party! They gave me a lid for the sundae but I finished it before I made it home-- while driving. Not sure what I'd tell the officer if I got pulled over. "Ma'am, are you drunk?" Yep, Sweet Retreat has me fully intoxicated! Thanks y'all! I'll definitely be returning for the vegan ice cream scoop that I didn't get this time!

I finally got a chance to visit the Georgetown location!…read moreGrab a tasty treat before your stroll around the square! I'm a cookie lover, so a place like this just speaks to me ! There was a line when I came. The space is small, but it works. I got the cookie monster cookie with the cookie monster ice cream. I always get my cookie warm. I love the quantity of ice cream and the flavor. The flavor is so rich and smooth. Everything paired so well. They have so many cool options so you can mix and match your treat! Please check it out and enjoy.

Been hot lately. Thought I would treat myself to some ice cream…read more Handels is located in the HEB center on 620. Parking lot is very large. There is a patio with 3 tables outside with umbrellas to shade you from The Texas sun. There is a small kids play area as well, and that is shaded with tree branches. Inside there are a couple tables and a low bar along the wall, facing outside on their patio and play area. To the left, the counter and the lists of flavors they have. They have numerous flavors. I settled on Rocky Road. Just a small dish size. Which turned out to be a lot for a small. Ice cream itself is chocolate, rich and smooth. There are mini marshmallows mixed in the ice cream. Also nuts. I'm not sure if it had chocolate chips or not. Didn't really notice them mixed in. Service was fast. I was just barely putting my wallet away and there it was, right on the coin tee in front of me. Wow, way to hustle! I sat down at the low bar facing outward to the patio. Enjoyed my ice cream on this hot day.

When life gives you heat, eat ice cream. Smile. Handel's Homemade Ice Cream for the save...rich, creamy, old fashioned ice cream. This creamery was originally founded in Youngstown, Ohio, and is known for making its ice cream fresh daily at each location. One of Handel's highlights was its enormous flavor selection. There is literally something for every taste from classic vanilla and chocolate to creative favorites like Banana Cream Pie, Black Cherry, Birthday Cake, and Blue Monster. I sample three ice creams before settling black cherry ice cream. The black cherry was to die for...smooth texture, bold flavor, and of course, the delicious black cherries. Portions are quite generous. In addition to ice cream cones and cups, Handel's also offers sundaes, shakes, pints to go, and even treats for dogs. How cool is that? Clayton, my server, was very nice and friendly. He allowed me to have three samples before I settled on the black cherry ice cream. In addition, Handel's has a playground, which highlights their family-friendly and children-friendly environment.

There weren't as many options as other places I've been to, maybe half as much as the place that was in where Jeremiah's is now. Toppings bar had some empty spots and some candy options were essentially powder. The young person at the counter was pleasant enough, no complaints but nothing extraordinary. Price was a bit steep, over $20 for 2 that I thought were pretty average size. Overall I'll give it a 3.5 but rounding up.

This is a nice outdoor visit. With your family, or date. It's a walk up to the window order shop…read more The service was great. Only smiles from the employees. It had a homey vibe and everyone enjoyed each other. I'd recommend going with the child's size, they medium was more then expected. The price was higher than I expected, but the custard was a worth it. I'd go once in a while. It's worth a try. I've driven by for a year and hadn't stopped, until tonight. With the heat being as high as it is, stopping was essential. There are about 30ish options from shakes, sundaes to concrete custards. I ordered the seasonal Lemon Bar custard. It has vanilla custard, lemon crumb bites that melt in your mouth.

It was creamy and had great flavors. The store itself is kind of small due to the fact that it is sharing with a bubble tea store as well. There are a few couches and tables; sadly, the one couch that was free was kind of dirty. It had some stain on it or something, so I decided to stay standing while enjoying my ice cream. They also had multiple toppings as well and milkshakes that they could make.

The staff was not helpful. All the males that were working that evening show the expression "I hate my job". The order board in front of the cashier is only for drinks and shakes I believe. You can not use it to order ice cream. They ran out of the bubble waffle cone, and so that limited us to only being able to order scoops of ice cream which wasn't that big of deal. There are two different registers because in my opinion it looks to be two different businesses in one building. Their is a handful of chairs and tables to sit down once you ordered your dessert. Volume was little louder than I would have expected by the number of people that were inside the store. When my family and I went into the store. We do not recommend and we will not be returning for any future visits. -HoneyCone (color is purple and as a good favor) -Cookies n cream (nothing to be excited about taste just like any other brand cookies n cream ice cream) - Strawberry Shortcake (not a fan of the strawberry shortcake... No real fruit inside it is strawberry syrup.) -Toasted Marshmellow -Birthday Cake (not a fan because this didn't taste like "birthday cake" it tastes like vanilla with sprinkles and icing mix in)
