“Great yogurt shop.
I've never been to a better yogurt shop in my life. Is a self-serve yogurt shop and you pay by weight. The prices are very reasonable. Abby was a great cashier and she was responsible for motivating me to email you so that I can make some suggestions for your shop to assist you in advertising your product, and we also discussed what the website or web page for your shop would need or require I expanded the concept and I added other concepts like data retention and how to analyze it for commercial use, so that the concept that we created will always be useful now and in the future.“

Their creative rotations mean there’s always something new and interesting to try. Don't shy away from the quirky options—yes, even Crab Rangoon—they know what they’re doing, and it will surprise you! And while it wasn't on the menu this trip, Green Apple Wasabi will forever live in my sparkle-covered heart.
​You also can’t go wrong with their staple flavors; the Cinnamon goes with everything.
Can't wait to visit again!“

“This location has AMAZING customer service. Story: I had a box of vegan cookies sent to my inlaws for their birthdays. I gave the wrong address, by a lot! The poor driver left the cookies with his best guess, but it was definitely not my inlaws' house. I called insomnia, prepared to pay for another batch, and they totally comped it and made a new batch and delivered, this time to the right address (again, original mistake was TOTALLY mine, not theirs). THEN, 5 hours later, the night manager called and said the people at the wrong delivery address had contacted them, and they were so sorry, and would comp the cookies AGAIN! I explained it had already been taken care of but WOW. These folks have the right idea about customer service! Refreshing in this day and age! Nebraska values apply even in a big corporate franchise. Support them! And the vegan cookies are A-Mazing!!!!!!“

“The cookies are usually very tasty. The oder kiosk didn't want to work well at all. It was a few hours before a Husker game, so we expected it to be busy, but it seemed the employees had not thought ahead and became very backed up. We didn't get the cookies we wanted because none of them were baked. We were disappointed for sure! I just felt for the money you pay, you should get what you want and they should prepare better. Normally, we have had a good experience, but we know now not to go at a busy time!“

“I haven’t been to a Culver’s in probably 13+ years and my client asked for it for lunch today. The cashier (white mans 20s-30s dark hair and glasses) was so kind and helped me with all of my questions with a smile, the lovely Hispanic woman who brought out our food also had a big smile. I have never seen such a clean fast food restaurant in my life, seriously the bathroom smelled so good with a hint of bleach, toilets? Absolutely spotless, not a crumb on the floor, tables or counters. Heck even the window sill had no dust on it. Absolutely blown away by the cleanliness and friendliness here. The burger was amazing with perfectly crispy fresh onions. hope upper management can give them some sort of incentive or gift because wow. We will definitely be back!“
