What people say

Handel's Ice Cream Long Beach is a must-visit for all ice cream lovers. Since 1945, they have been making fresh homemade ice cream on-site, and it shows in the quality of their products. Their Key lime ice cream with graham cracker ripple is a fan favorite and is sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. But what makes Handel's even more special is their commitment to giving back to the community. They kindly ask customers if they would like to round up to the nearest dollar to support Miller’s Children’s Hospital, and even match the first $1000 donated during Pride Month. And if you're looking for a unique dessert option for your next party or celebration, Handel's also offers delicious ice cream cakes and pies. Overall, Handel's Ice Cream Long Beach is a fantastic spot for anyone looking for high-quality ice cream and a business that cares about its community.
