“I live in Colorado and never heard of Alpha Coffee. I visited Salt Lake City, and friend recommended we meet at the downtown location. I ordered an "Aztec" and it was great. Something different, new and tasty for me. I liked the drink, the vibe and the servers ... the whole experience was great! I look forward to my next visit to SLC. I'll stop at Alpha again - to try the Poly! :)“

“My friend got these for my baby shower and they were SO good. I think they got the peanut butter and Oreo topping. I would eat these every day if I could!!!! Would give 5 stars if the app would let me but I can’t because they offer non-vegan items. Updated from previous review on 2025-01-08“

“Crumbl stores are always clean, bright, and welcoming. The staff is friendly and efficient, making pickup quick and easy. The cookies are always fresh and delicious, though some flavors can be hit or miss. Overall, a great spot for a sweet treat!“

“Dolcetti Gelato is a contemporary, cozy, and charming local gelato shop that offers a consistently good gelato experience. With their extravagant and lavishly decorated interior they foster an environment to make the most of your business by providing fantastic service and delicious gelato. The hot chocolate was also delectable. I would 100% recommend this charming spot.“

“October 13, 2022, my sister and I went to Leatherby's for lunch at 12:10 p.m. We order a Philly cheese steak sandwich, and we waited 20 minutes for it, it was barely warm. It had hardly and meat, green peppers, onions on it! I said to the waiter this Philly cheese steak sandwich was on the Menu said The BEST Seller. It had nothing is on it; he took it back and (they probably spit on it) when came back it STILL hardly had any meat etc. on it! It was the worst Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich!!! Service VERY Poor! Food VERY POOR!!!“

“Best Carmel sauce in the world. Please, please, pretty please start accepting door dash an/or Uber eats.“

“My go-to crepe cake place!“

“My friends and I went here because I remembered going here when I was a kid like 12 years ago. The owners are the nicest owners I’ve ever ran into or honestly had the pleasure of meeting. The atmosphere of this yogurt shop is warm and inviting. Although there are limited flavors, it is hands down the best quality of frozen yogurt I’ve had. Apparently they also have curry! I’m very excited to go back.“

“this is best Gelato in town“

“Always great service and food. Alexa and Tomas run a wonderful ice cream shop“

“This place is great in so many ways but I want to highlight the fact that you can get multiple flavors at no extra charge and they put a nice touch on my driving by adding a cherry on top. Anywhere else I would expect am extra charge and mediocre service, this place was notably peasant but not over the top.“

“me gustó el helado de mango 🥭“

“Tried this great little gem today in the shopping plaza on 47th south between the 215 on/off ramps and 27th west. Staff was super friendly and quick and the treats were delicious! I had a specialty flavor (rainbow) while my son went with a custom creation and both were garnished with a cute tropical umbrella. Loved the vibe in the store and that its a woman owned local small business. Check them out! You won't regret it :)“

“Mmmm I didn’t know I loved it until I tried it. ❤️“

“Love their caramel apples!“

“I love snow cones they are so yummy and delicious“

“this is simply amazing ice cream and clean imoression“

“I love Handles! They have lots of flavors of ice cream to choose from. They will let you try them before purchasing. I love to get their sampler, which is 4 scoops. Then I can get my favorite ice cream, which is cookies and cream, and then try some other flavors. The s service is great!“

“The ice creams are amazing. There are many options for toppings. Place is so clean! I absolutely love this place!“

“I ordered a cake for my kiddos birthday and the service was fantastic! The cake exceeded my expectations and looked fantastic! They were more than happy to accommodate and made her day so special! It was the focal point of the party! Can’t say enough good things!!!“

“This place is so fun. You choose your type of frozen yogurt and then add your toppings and pay based off weight. Kids love it. Remember to buy a water when you check out because for whatever reason froyo makes ya THIRSTY.

Kid-friendliness: Kids love a make-your-own sundae bar.“

“Buen servicio y Agradable“

“*UPDATE *
After the owner took the time to respond so courteously to my review, I decided to give them another chance. Keera and Indigo assisted me and truly took the time to listen to my previous experience. They went above and beyond to make things right, and I genuinely appreciate their empathy and dedication to great customer service. I also tried the mango sticky rice that’s been trending on TikTok—and it did not disappoint! Thanks to how well these ladies treated me, I’ll definitely be coming back again.

*OLD REVIEW*
I visited this place based on a recommendation that they had great drinks and was looking forward to a good experience—but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations.

When I walked in, I asked for a recommendation, and the girl who helped me was friendly and suggested the “Milky Way,” describing it as similar to a root beer float with soft serve ice cream. However, when I received the drink, it didn’t include any soft serve.

I went back to clarify, and another girl with green hair told me that the first employee didn’t say it came with soft serve, only that it could be added. I ended up paying extra to have it added, hoping that would improve the drink.

Unfortunately, it still didn’t taste good. After just a few sips, I politely asked if I could swap it for something else. The response I received was dismissive—the girl told me, “You drank half of it and didn’t have a problem with it before,” which wasn’t true. I hadn’t even finished a third of it and was only trying to see if the added soft serve would help the flavor.

As a first-time customer, I was really disappointed by both the miscommunication and the customer service. I had high hopes based on the recommendation, but sadly, I won’t be returning.“

“Walking into Crumbl is like stepping into a gourmet cookie dream. Based on the mouthwatering display in these photos, Crumbl continues to live up to its reputation for bold flavors, playful creativity, and presentation that practically demands a taste test.

Standouts from This Week’s Lineup:
• Chilled Cookies & Cream: A chilled treat with rich chocolate cookie base and a swirl of creamy Oreo-infused frosting. The texture contrast and crushed cookie topping give it serious “cookies & milk” nostalgia.
• Baked Butterbeer: A warm, golden-brown cookie that looks straight out of the wizarding world. Buttery and rich, it’s a must-try for Harry Potter fans and butterscotch lovers alike.
• Dubai: Elegant and intriguing, this cookie is topped with white drizzle and what looks like shredded pistachio or white chocolate – offering a sophisticated global twist.
• Milk Chocolate Chip: The classic. Thick, soft, gooey—this cookie doesn’t try to impress with frills, but it still hits every comforting note.
• The Bueno: Inspired by Kinder Bueno, this cookie is topped with a hazelnut chocolate drizzle that promises a nutty-smooth burst of flavor.
• Chocolate Caramel Sea Salt: Rich and indulgent with gooey caramel notes and a hit of sea salt that balances the sweetness perfectly. For dark chocolate lovers, this one is a knockout.
• S’more: Toasted marshmallow and chocolate square nestled into a graham-inspired cookie base—everything you want from a campfire treat in handheld form.

Final Verdict:
Crumbl’s cookie rotation keeps dessert exciting. Whether you’re a fan of chilled, frosted creations or classic warm cookies, there’s something here for every kind of sweet tooth. The attention to flavor pairings, playful names, and quality ingredients makes each visit feel like a new dessert adventure.

⭐ Rating: 10/10
Just wish they’d offer a mini-size sampler—because with a menu like this, choosing one is almost impossible.“

“super rico !!! super recomendados!“

“What a fun place! Loved watching them create such a wonderful dessert! Highly recommend!“

“You won't find the kindness and courtesy they practice here anywhere else. I have to talk about the product that they make themselves, it is delicious, factory ice creams and popsicles can be found anywhere, but here you will find authentic flavors and textures like those of Mexico, the fresh waters are really delicious because they are made with fruits and not dust like everywhere else. They sell other delicious snacks and drinks that they prepare on the spot like Tejuino, nowhere else in Utah do they have this flavor. Personally, I like to pay for quality, and their products are worth it.“

“Four year search for authentic Italian Neapolitan pizza, found the perfect place in Holladay, limited menu of well executed food, warm friendly service. Open limited days and times, but worth adding as a regular night out“

“So I want to start off by saying flavor and taste is subjective. Was this my favorite ice cream, no. Why would I come on here and give it five stars then. The service was FIVE STARS!! If I could give the service TEN STARS I would!! I ordered two soft serve scoops for my children and I was going to split a pint with my oldest and I. We tried the mint chocolate brownie and we didn't like it. I love mint ice cream and I love mint brownie, but it tasted like spearmint gum to us. They use real mint. Many people may love this, sadly it wasn't for us. The sweet young lady that works here is sooo kind and generous. She let us choose another pint. Sadly, we also did not like this flavor. I told her I am so sorry I don't expect you to give us a third one, and asked if one of them would like to take it home since we didn't like it. I didn't want it to go to waste. She not only took it off our bill but gave us each a scoop of the soft ice cream for free. THAT IS SERVICE!! NO where does this NOW-A-DAYS! She was sooo kind, and soooo generous. I think she is the one in charge, so I hope this review doesn't get her in trouble. If she is not the boss, please know that she made this customer VERY happy. She should be rewarded for her kindness and not get in trouble. She understands customer service better than almost anyone I have ever met!! She was so kind and polite about me not liking the ice cream and didn't make me feel bad. THANK YOU! You made this momma happy!!“

“Chocolate chip ice cream was delicious“

“Darling workers that were really nice to us!“

“My team was doing a mobile clinic next door so I thought I'd take a chance and see if I could purchase some. The kind gentleman there gifted us a couple boxes. It was generous and soooooo delicious. Just what we needed for an afternoon pick-me-up! Thanks again!“

“At first, I was completely put off because their weren’t prices listed. I immediately felt I was going to be overcharged. I asked the sweet lady for prices, and she obliged happily. It was the most I’ve ever paid for a boba and I’ve drank them all over. Even on Waikiki Beach they weren’t so expensive. So, why 5 stars? The brown sugar milk tea with traditional Boba was the best boba I have ever had! It was so good I am considering going back tomorrow before I leave town! Good job, Hello Boba. Still too much $$ for boba, but goodness, it is tasty!“

“great for anyone who loves ice cream.....This is Utah, we are obsessed.“

“Crumbl is awesome! Thanks to Sophia for the great service!“

“Vegetarian options: Several vegetarian options come to mind, though I can't recall if they were clearly labeled. The staff was amazing and I'm sure they would be helpful in pointing out options.

Dietary restrictions: I'm allergic to lavender and the staff was very vigilant in checking their tea for lavender to make sure it was safe for me to drink. I really appreciate that!

Parking: The building is a little hidden but there is plenty of parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: The building is not wheelchair accessible. If you have some mobility there are three stairs to get into the building and they have main floor seating but there is a big staircase to the second floor. So I would call to see which rooms are the most accessible.“

“I really adore their different types of ice cream sweet treat combinations they come up with some really interesting ones stuff that you really don't think would mix but they really do go together I hate a dark chocolate before I had they're vanilla cone dipped in dark chocolate now it's like my favorite thing to get and it's so good it's so satisfying.“

“This crumble is always fun. They tend to have the the best tasting cookies for some reason. Definitely give me the best experience out of all the other stores.“

“We had Yonutz cater to our community and had a fantastic, delicious time. The guys were so personable, the treats were unique, amazing and served fresh. Definitely recommend them and they said they do fundraisers! Super happy to find them.“

“Home-cooked dishes and very hospitable service! A place you can call home for Filipino cuisine in Salt Lake Utah 🇺🇸 after long days of interstate road trip with my high-school besties now living in the USA- Lucila Hogston(Boonsboro, Maryland), Susan Capuli (Boston, Massachusetts) Beth Angelo Enriquez ( Salt Lake, Utah) and me Marilou Tomacruz Carlos ( San Francisco, California) our cravings for Filipino food kicked in! And we were satisfied just like Nanay’s home cooking. Will give them 5 stars for delectable filipino dishes and excellent service. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“It's just fun to be out there with you guys and pretend to be normal again“
