Though part of a small regional chain, the Riverside location of Handel’s earns repeated praise in the Inland Empire Magazine and Riverside Foodie for its local engagement and made-fresh-daily approach. This shop is independently operated and deeply rooted in community events, offering over 40 rotating flavors—from classic butter pecan to tangy lemon blueberry. The lines are often out the door, a testament to its reputation for rich, creamy texture and generous portions. The friendly staff is always ready with recommendations, making first-timers feel like regulars.
