“$7.99 for a dot cake cookie. I laughed and laughed. And then left. EDIT Agree, Crumbl! ✨ I typically order from the app to then pickup at the store, but abandoned the order when I thought it was such a high price point, promptly then sharing this review in anger and frustration, due to many companies gouging customers in a similar fashion in recent times. Relatable, perhaps? I reopened the app upon seeing your response, adding the dot cake cookie to the cart again in attempts to recreate my first sticker shock experience, quickly seeing that the total I initially saw reflected the addition of a suggested tip making it the aforementioned $7.99.😳 The first time around, I adjusted the tip amount to my usual $1 and then updated the car info for a curbside pickup to my temporary rental car info. Apparently, the tip amount didn't update properly since it was still at the higher amount at checkout, causing the whole snafu. Updating the review to only four stars because the support team is a super pain to reach now- they just don't respond- it used to be easy in-app if points needed correcting or my order was off from time to time. Each time I've contacted this store for help, I've been directed to the site, making it a time and money--wasting catch-22 of sorts. Anyway, yada, yada, thanks for helping me discover that the higher amount wasn't the case. It didn't seem like one of the non-cookie desserts that ARE a bit more. Whew! 😅 Celebrated with a cookie.”

“I saw an ad on my social media that this Baskin-Robbins was having a grand re-opening and having 99 cents single scoops. I haven't had Baskin-Robbins in a long time so I asked my boyfriend if he would be down to have some and he agreed! We stopped by and there were quite a few people ahead of us and some people waiting behind us. It seems like they were doing pretty well especially on a Thursday afternoon. There was only one employee, Misty working but she was doing a great job keeping up and providing excellent customer service. The store was clean and well-maintained too! There are three tables and three chairs on each one which is nice as we had our fur babies with us and we didn't want to have to fight them off while trying to enjoy our ice cream. I got their triple mango while my boyfriend got mint chocolate chip and it was a perfection scoop for both of us. The mango was really good and I love the different textures and types of mangos you get! The mint chocolate chip was really refreshing too. We look forward to coming back as they seem to have more events, including a happy hour next month.”

“Very impressed with this Dairy Queen store location. Dairy Queen is a top favorite with my wife and kids so I have been to many locations in MN and WI. I had never been to this location so called to confirm they sold cakes. The customer service on the phone was upbeat and friendly. The service at the store when I arrive was equal to the call (friendly and helpful). While I waited for the cake (very quick) to be personalized, I observed great and efficient service for each customer in line. Great store!! Until next time.”
