“Crumbl never disappoints when it comes to big, bold cookies. The presentation is always beautiful, and the cookies smell amazing the second you open the box. Just super soft, thick, and gooey inside. Some flavors can be very sweet, but if you love rich desserts, it’s perfect. The rotating weekly menu keeps things exciting, and there’s always at least one flavor that becomes a new favorite. Overall, Crumbl is a fun treat when you want something indulgent and over the top!“

“The Culver’s at 4836 SW College Rd
Ocala, FL 34471 has the nicest , kindest people there. I went in , not having been there before … I had lost my mom recently and just started crying at the counter while ordering. Michelle stopped what she was doing, walked around and put her arms around me and just held me. Such love and kindness to a stranger. She held me and my heart. Thank you. My burger was very good too.“

“Stopped into Brown Dog Coffeehouse for a coffee break and it’s a cozy, “hang out for a while” kind of place. Inside feels warm and relaxed with comfy seating, and it’s easy to see why people come here to work or meet up. I grabbed a latte and a small bite—both were solid, and the barista was friendly, just a little slower when the line builds up. If you like calm coffee-shop vibes (not a loud, rushed grab-and-go), this is a good stop“

“Great food good service“

“We had a make your own salad bowl (edible and delish) and three street tacos. The chicken, carne asada, and the sweet pork... ALL so delicious!! Pricing is great especially if you compare to a whole meal at McD's, being almost the same price! Will be back again for sure!!“

“I hadn't been to this store before or little Caesars since I was a child .
This establishment not only is reasonable in price , they also handled a massive order of 10 to 20 pizzas in 15 minutes.
Ordered multiple days in a row from the ocala horse park .
There worth the visit and trip to town just like back in the day .

Way to go team happy returning customer.
Customer service is awesome family environment.“

“For what it is Olive garden still gets the job done. Nothing better than feeling like your grubbing the food from prom days. Bread sticks are still good and their sauce keeps saucin'. Ate so fast didn't take a picture but it was worthy.“
