The ice creams are creamy and delicious. This is very close to my place. Good for a quick stop treat.

After moving to the area last year, I made it my mission to try local ice cream place in Cary/Morrisville. I’m an ice cream purist and prefer the traditional flavors. All those fancy flavors with lots of random sugary things mixed in to oddball bases are just not for me. And those giant shakes and sundaes overflowing with candies and mountains of whipped cream? I’m nauseous just thinking about it.That being said, Handel’s is the best ice cream shop in every way. The prices are good, there’s a huge variety of flavors, including the traditional ones plus the more exotic, and the employees are super friendly and sweet. Best of all, the ice cream is absolutely delicious and the portions are huge!! It’s on the opposite side of town from me, which is good, because otherwise I’d go every week!

We like them because they serve authentic icecream tailored to the flavor - with a color and texture - that suits the palate and is true to its composition. A Black Raspberry that was smooth, sweet and fruity tasty. A Monkey Business that had texture and context. A coffee chocolate chip that was creamy albeit could have had more character. Like a bolder version of itself. Nevertheless a gem. In a world where Woke is the norm - this one I reckon will stand out. Tradition has its followers.

I’ve been going to Handles for several years. Lots of flavors to choose from, which is nice but it doesn’t taste as homemade as I remember and like. I remember them tasting more high end- creamy with fresh ingredients. The last 3 times it was kinda like grocery store ice cream, which isn’t bad necessarily but not what I was looking for. The apple pie was overly cookie-ish with little bits of apple and the cinnamon/spice I’d expect to get in an apple pie was kinda lack luster. The strawberry cheesecake had syrupy strawberry swirl not real bites which I guess fits but there just wasn’t a good balance cause I wanted more actual bits of strawberry and surprisingly I thought the cheesecake chunks were too big making it overpowering and the could of blended into the base better- think Blizzard but even a blizzard has better strawberry mixed in.I have given it a good try, just not my cup of ice cream anymore. My sentiments are the flavors are out of balance and underwhelming. Except maybe the Peanut butter chocolate but in my opinion most versions of that flavor anywhere are good. That flavor was alright but sadly, I’ll be looking for something more exciting like gelato where I can sit and savor my treat.

It was about to close. Yet the person over counter was gracious enough to serve us for a takeout. Taste was also very good.

Thank you for responding so quicklyIn addition to my review “The Best” my wife and I are originally from the Youngstown Ohio area where Handles first started and we grew up with their ice cream. So when we say “the best” we truly mean it..Living here now in North Carolina it’s nice to see a familiar place like Handles so close by ..

Delicious homemade ice cream. Actually really good, reminds me of ice cream made fresh from a farm. Some nice picnic tables and seats as well. All outdoors, no inside seating.

I got the 4 scoop sampler and my gf also got one. They were absolutely amazing. I tried each flavor and told her I wanted to cry it was so delicious. After I ate my whole sampler I said "I just had a religious experience." Best ice cream ever.

Had such a bad experience last night with the red haired guy at the window. There were no other customers and we only ordered 2 scoops of ice cream in a cup. Slamming things around and mumbling things under his breath. Running around the back frantically. He was very noticeable angry. I already had a bad experience here once before and was given coupons for a future visit. Who knew scooping ice cream could be so miserable?! We won’t be back.

It's a cool little ice cream stand with a large selection. I'm not an ice cream guy, so it was a little overwhelming with all the options, but that would be a good thing for anyone else. Try them out!
