    Have heard so much hype around this business and have been waiting for a good week of flavors to drop before checking it out. Ordering online was easy and received my cookies in 5 minutes after arriving. The lobby was busy, but they had about 20 staff working. We tried Mint brownie, lucky charm marshmallow, sea salt toffee, and peanut butter cookies and cream. I loved the mint brownie - good texture and flavor! These cookies (especially chocolate chip) remind me of Hidden Acres cookies if you are familiar. They are pricey so this will be a rare treat but we look forward to coming back.

    I was SO excited to hear that we were getting a Crumbl in Ankeny. We knew the grand opening was Friday but they were open for business on Thursday already. I had been to another location, so I knew that you could either order through the app or order at a kiosk there. Between those standing inside and outside, there were probably about 50-60 people waiting I would guess. It was only about 5 minutes until we got to a kiosk to order and then we started waiting. We started hearing horror stories of those who ordered on the app. There were people who placed their orders that morning and the cookies still weren't ready. After about 45 minutes of waiting we asked to either know how long it would be or to just get a refund. They were able to get them out to us in about 5 minutes. We are glad we did the kiosk ordering because everyone who did the app ordering were having to wait so much longer. There were probably 30 employees working. While standing there, we realized a lot of these kids working were going very very slow and really just taking their time. We didn't see any sort of leader going around trying to speed things up and motivate anyone. There also definitely needed to be someone creating a better flow for the lines and ordering. I want to shout out the two men working the front, though. I felt bad they were having to deal with the madness head-on but they were amazing!! They were having fun, making everyone feel seen and noticed, and had the best attitude! I hope they stick around! After about an hour of waiting, we finally got our cookies and they were AMAZING! We will definitely be back!

    I was so excited to get our very own crumbl in Ankeny! I have never been before and was eager to try! I went to the soft launch which was still a two hour wait. But I was still greeted with still positive staff and delicious cookies once it was our turn. I am excited to keep my eyes out for new weekly flavors and will definitely be back!

    Been here 3 weeks in a row now! But have had it 4 times now! First week our friend brought us cookies and got us hooked! First time I personally ordered, I ordered a Dozen to be delivered. It was delivered 30mins prior to arrival time so that's always a good start! Shortly went back Friday afternoon 4PM and boy was the wait longgggggg First impression of the store front itself, seems small. Waited outside for 10 mins and finally made it inside. But since it was so crowded I wasn't sure where to order and what to do because everyone was just standing around waiting for their cookies Luckily the customer themselves were very nice and was able to direct me to one of the 3 ordering tablets they had so I had asked everyone else if they ordered and they replied yes so I walked up to the countertop and ordered my cookies. However it got awkward fast because I wasn't given a countdown, I wasn't given quite any direction and turned around and wasn't sure where to stand, while others whom had ordered online for pick up, showed up and had a pick up line number so they knew when their cookies were ready. So if you were not observant you won't know when it's your time to pick up the cookies or if the people before you got their cookies. Waited almost an hour and 45 mins in the cake batter blondie was sold out which that was one of the best flavors for the week, luckily they had just popped in a fresh pan so I didn't wait too much longer. Second time, I went on Monday noon time and it was around 20 min wait. Less crowded. Walked up to order. Had a worker there to place the order for me. I asked her how long it might be and she had a tablet of her own ready to answer my question so that was great! Overall, I would recommend the cookies, hands down really good. Just need a little customer direction or redirection. Have someone walking the crowds so everyone is informed

    If you like to taste a flower and sugar and Instagram photos, this is the place for you and long lines for me. I think it's way overrated. My girlfriend likes it though I would pass play eat all those. Hit or miss but fresh is the way to go

    Since you asked me to reach out via the http://crumblcookies.com/contacts I have been trying for almost a week and the page is broken... not sure who to contact as the site does not work... experience was just not good when I was there and I really don't want to re hash it on Yelp. Please contact me in a private message if you care to discuss.

There is tons of parking available in the strip mall's parking lot that is in a reasonable walking distance. As I mentioned, these are gourmet cinnamon rolls, and gourmet does not come cheap. The shop is very clean. They have a decent size dining area with tables and chairs. There is also a lounge area with purple couches. You will find a fenced in patio area available to eat you treat at as well. The guy working the shop was friendly enough, but my interaction with him was limited. They have a bunch of signature and rotating/seasonal cinnamon rolls such as Strawberry Fields Roll, Berry Crumble Roll, Tropical Bliss Roll, Caramel Apple Pie Roll, and Campfire S'mores Roll. You can also get a traditional plain cinnamon roll. They also have soft serve, brownies, cookie dough, king cake and ice cream floats. I got a Snicker Salad. It was made while I waited and only took five minutes. I ordered it at night and ate it the following morning. It was still delicious. I really enjoyed it. It was tasty. I highly recommend checking this place out to satisfy your sweet tooth.

I ordered the Pit Master Sandwich with a side of French onion soup (you get to choose a side with the sandwich). The sandwich was really good! The bread was buttery and soft, and the homemade croutons in the soup were clearly made from fresh bread. The French onion soup wasn't for me--it kind of tasted like acid reflux to me, so I gave it to my mom. She actually thought it was pretty good. The sandwich had perfectly balanced barbecue sauce and cheese, although I thought the barbecue sauce overpowered the cheese a bit. Next time, I'd probably order it without the cheese. The brisket was good, but I would've preferred a fattier cut because I think it would have been more flavorful. I also wasn't a fan of the Gouda since it didn't melt very well, but the other cheese on the sandwich was delicious. Overall, the food was incredible, and this place is an absolute MUST if you're in the area! I noticed they have around 78,000 DoorDash orders, and after eating here, I can definitely see why. I'll actually be coming back in a few days before I leave my vacation because there are so many other delicious items on the menu that I can't wait to try! Staff were also nice!

I thought their flavors would be unique and wonderful like Black Cat in Des Moines, but I was very disappointed. I usually ask for samples of two different flavors before I make a decision, but after trying two different samples and not finding either one interesting, I asked for two more. I wasn't wowed by any of them, so I chose the one I thought was the strongest of all of them: Dutch Letter. It was ok but I was expecting a lot more of the almond extract flavor. It was very subtle. I didn't find it rich or creamy either. It tasted like an ice cream I could get at the grocery store if they had that flavor. It was nothing remarkable. The most objectionable thing to me was the cost of the scoop of ice cream. It was $5.99 for a regular scoop! My husband and I were shocked. We thought that surely for that price the scoops must be enormous, but alas, they were just average-sized. I don't know how they get away with charging that much, but the place was filled with people so they must be paying for it. The place was cute and a good number of tables but won't be back.
