Handel's is an absolute MUST for any ice cream lover! 🍨😍

But beware... they have a huge selection of delicious flavors so be prepared to make some seriously tough decisions! 🤔

Even late at night, this place is hopping but the wait is well worth it.

So do your sweet tooth a favor and treat yourself to Handel's Ice Cream! I highly recommend it! 😋

This variety keeps customers coming back to try new flavors and enjoy their all-time favorites.

Wow wow wow! Got the sampler consisting of 4 scoops - banana cream pie, horchata, buckeye and taro - they were all amazing but that banana cream pie and taro were incredible!

If you don't like waiting, definitely place your order online and skip the line to pickup from the side window

Handels came to Oxnard! I went the night before they opened and the workers were slow but were really nice. This is the best ice cream! I always go when I visit Newport Beach, and now we have our own!! You need to go a try their creamy ice cream, which by the way they make inside the store. So quality and fresh!!

I stopped by Handel's in Oxnard this morning and had a great time! The ice cream was delicious and each flavor I sampled was flavorful. The staff are friendly. Camila helped us out she was welcoming and gave good suggestions. The prices are very reasonable considering the quality and portion sizes. I’ll definitely be back!

I like to think of myself as an ice cream aficionado, and let me tell you—this is some incredible ice cream!

First, the texture. I’m not sure if "frothy" is the right word to describe a solid, but it’s the best adjective I can come up with. The texture is light and airy, making every bite an absolute delight.

Second, the flavor. I’ve tried three flavors so far, and all of them were absolutely delicious. Each one featured real chunks of the ingredients they’re based on, which elevated the experience. For instance, the mango and pineapple sorbet had just the right amount of actual fruit, giving it a vibrant, refreshing flavor that broke away from the monotony of typical ice creams. Meanwhile, the key lime pie flavor included little chunks of what I assume were pie crust, which perfectly balanced out the tartness typically associated with lime-flavored treats.

Third, the staff. While working on some last-minute construction details before their opening, I found myself wandering over there more often than I probably should have, pestering them for free samples. Not only were they happy to oblige, but their great sense of humor and welcoming attitude made the experience unforgettable. I’ll always cherish those fond memories.

Though I didn’t see the place in action since it hadn’t opened yet, I can already tell it’s going to be popular. If you visit and see a line, don’t be discouraged—it’s clear from the layout and the numerous service windows that any wait will be short-lived.

I'm super excited that this place opened, but I arrived just 3 minutes before closing. It's just ice cream, yet the staff was really rude. I got “2 scoops” and the guy just handed them to me and shut the window right in my face.
