“My wife, Dianna, and I are longtime San Diego residents, and we were looking for an opportunity to come together as a family and serve our community by providing them with the best ice cream on the market. Handel’s is a growing favorite in Southern California, and we are thrilled to bring the iconic and beloved ice cream brand to Hillcrest,” said Josh Barton, Owner of the Hillcrest Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream in a statement. “We are very excited to celebrate our grand opening with our neighbors and area visitors!”

We look forward to doing the same with our new Handel’s location through fundraisers and other supporting initiatives.”
