“The baristas are friendly, the coffee is strong, and the pastries are scrumptious! It’s a great place to work (free wi-fi for customers) or relax and read. Great atmosphere!“

“Great Bakery“

“If you're looking for the ultimate cookie experience, Crumbl Cookies is hands down the best place to satisfy your sweet tooth! Every time I visit, the variety and freshness of their cookies blow me away, but what really sets this location apart is the outstanding customer service, particularly from Harper Elkins.

Harper truly exemplifies what exceptional service should be. From the moment you step in, her warm smile and upbeat personality instantly make you feel welcome. She goes above and beyond to make sure each customer not only gets exactly what they want but leaves happier than they arrived. Harper's attention to detail is impeccable, whether she’s recommending the best cookie of the week or ensuring that your order is prepared perfectly.

On my last visit, I was indecisive with all the delicious options, but Harper’s in-depth knowledge of the flavors made my choice so much easier. She described each one with such passion and precision that I couldn’t resist trying a few more than I’d planned. And she was right—they were phenomenal!

In a world where customer service can often feel rushed or impersonal, Harper Elkins stands out as a true gem. Crumbl Cookies is already amazing on its own, but with Harper on their team, it’s a five-star experience every time. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Very delicious homemade style cookies. I got them online and shipping was fast. Would buy again. Highly recommended.“

“The maple square was amazing, and the service was fast but no one acknowledged me until they were handing me the food. Not a big deal but a simple wave would've made me feel more comfortable as it was my very first time in a Crumbl store.
That and how busy they were didn't help the atmosphere. I mean yay. You're busy. But it was a small area with 2 other people waiting and workers working their butt's off. Not a great atmosphere.“

“Great breakfast and an excellent bourbon cookie!“

Dara matched the icing colors to the invitations we had, and everyone kept complimenting how fancy it looked. Then when we ate it everyone gushed how great it tasted. 11/10 I will definitely be hitting her up for more cakes!“

“The orange juice cake is unreal!! So delicious“

“Some of the best to go cake in Louisville! Hands-down, love the Bundtinis. Their cake is delicious, moist, chilled and can be customized for any party type.

NOTE: They have a great gluten free cake!“

“Beautiful restaurant! So chic and comfy. Quick service. Everything in here is so tasty! I had something from the bakery, a Korean sandwich and black coffee, and everything was extremely delicious.

“Dear Jeff's Donuts. I regret to inform you, I can only give you five stars, just know you deserve every single star in the sky. I hope this letter finds you well. The day is Friday. January the 10th, year 2025. Today, Brooklyn and I decided to get donuts for us and the kids, as she wanted to start preparing the chili early. Dunkin’ Donuts was closed, and the order promptly canceled. We debated on making homemade donuts for a short time, before deciding to venture out and try something different. There you were. Shining like a lighthouse in a dark, foggy sea of plain looking donuts. It’s beacon of light piercing through the veil of confusion and blandness. The chaos of ordinary cookie cutter style donuts, never stood no chance, really. Upon inspecting the diverse list of offerings, something caught my eye. The Cherry Dream Long John. I must admit, I was hesitant at first. Cherry is something many do wrong. Alas, I could not resist my own curiosity. The craving for proper cherry took over and consumed my ability to control my impulse. I added everyone’s order, and sent forth the courier of deliciousness promptly to your location. I had to have it, and I had to have it now. A short time later, the courier arrived, carry what was quite possibly the biggest donut box I’d ever seen. It was then, at that very moment, I knew deep inside of me that these truly were going to be no ordinary donuts. I quickly flayed the tree pulp and adhesive bondage from the chest of donuts, with the utmost anticipation. Not knowing truly what to expect, but having the highest of hopes. I opened it with the utmost care. At first glimpse, I was overwhelmed. I immediately closed the box in disbelief and looked at Brooklyn. She understood from my expression, that this indeed, was no ordinary box of donuts from no ordinary donut shop. It took a second, but after the shock and excitement faded, I re-opened the chest of delight, and we handed them out. The kids got chocolate frosted sprinkle donuts, which were absolute behemoths. You could tell, they were iced in all of their glory and size, with care and intent. Brooklyn withdrew her blueberry donut. She was pleased. Then it was left to me. I picked up my Cherry Dream donut, and stared at it for a minute. Marveled by its creamy, fresh and delicious appeal. Almost entranced by the faint smell of cherry and freshly cooked dough. I tried my first bite, and immediately knew not many would follow, as I couldn’t contain myself. It was perfect. From the creamy, fresh soft icing, that was a perfectly balanced flavor profile of cherry. Not the overwhelming fake cherry that becomes too much to bear after the first few bites. The sweet, delicate taste of cherry done right. Just enough to leave you craving more. It was that profile, mixed with a soft, fresh, airy dough that had such perfectly placed and crafted air pockets inside that it couldn’t possibly have any other explanation than god himself, wanted them to be there. Alas, I had acquired the perfect cherry donut. Jeff, from my heart to yours. To you, and your crew of artesian donut crafters as well, I’d like to say thank you. Thank you for this experience that has filled me with so much joy. Thank you for these children, being able to experience what a TRUE donut, really is, in all of its glory. I could not recommend Jeff’s donuts enough. I must abruptly end this, and I am sorry. There is now a strawberry donut calling my name. I cannot refuse its calling. I cannot ignore its voice, like a siren in the sea. I cannot ignore its succulent temptation. I must indulge.“

“I had the cheesecake brownie and it was the best brownie I’ve ever had!“

“Brittany at Fern Creek store was amazing. She was very helpful and professional and got us together for last minute treats for our son’s birthday!“

“Delicious cookies, great service.“

“Amazing cakes! So happy to finally have an Indiana location.“

“This company makes the most wonderful breads, buns, and tortillas! I didn't count but they must have over 30 styles of breads from three or four different White, whole grain white, whole wheat, whole grain, low carb which they call smart carb, cinnamon raisin, italian, rye, artisan, 5 seed , etc. They're available in hamburger buns, hot dog buns, submarine sandwich buns, Texas toast, and various white and wheat butter top breads for both home and commercial use in the restaurant industry.“

“It was delicious the first visit. I had the Mary Jane Herbal Canoli, with banana cream filling was to die for. It was so good it took me back to my teen years. Something familiar the flavor was reminiscent of sinsemillia. I even got a head buzz, and kinda daydreamed as I walked along 4th Street. I suddenly realized it was an hour later and Inwas standing outside Fudgery candy store, scarfing down two pounds double chocolate rocky road fudge. Asking passerbys to take a bite.I tried to go back today but could not find it. I wonder if it was all just a dream? Somebody let me know.“

“The Bourbon Balls are so good and decadent!“

“Amber is the absolute sweetest and her treats are always so cute & delicious! You can tell she puts a lot of work into everything she does. Definitely recommend 💕“

“Beautifully decorated and deliciously good cookies made by good people!“

“This place is a small delight. I’ve been going here for years. Ordering online for pickup of an enter or pizza, or popping in for a deli item or desert, and I have never one been disappointed.
