    I tried their 6 pack when a friend sent it as a surprise... awesome taste, great size for sharing and just a terrific texture. Bonus on top: they only took 1 hr from the time the order was placed to when it got delivered to me.

    So we came to a cookie shop and ended up getting ice cream. Go figure. I've been to an Insomnia Cookies location in Chicago once, ten years ago, in the wee early hours of the morning as a recently graduated 20-something that didn't need to worry much about sleep. It was awesome. And I assumed this place was only open at night. A few days ago, I was in the downtown area of Lexington with my son and we were looking for a place to grab a sweet treat. A quick search on Yelp brought me here. A cookie sounded good. I also had no idea Insomnia was open during the day, too. Psh. I ALSO didn't know ice cream was an option at Insomnia, too! Both my son and I prefer ice cream to cookies and that's just what we got. You can also get both! An ice cream cookie sandwich! Win! I would've chose this if I was craving a larger treat. There several cookie flavors to choose from, along with eight different ice cream flavors. We both sampled the Lemon Raspberry ice cream. Lemon Raspberry combinations in general are my favorite and this ice cream was HEAVENLY!! My son just wanted his usual: Vanilla. As we were placing our order (FYI: they don't have cones, just cups), our cashier mentioned a "scoop" option that isn't on the menu -- even smaller than the 'small' size, you can just get a large scoop in a cup for $2. Since I didn't want us to completely load up on ice cream, I choose this and it was just perfect for both my son and I. Our total was less than $5 for delicious scoops of ice cream. YES. We were both happy. I can't really comment much on cookies and delivery and all that fun stuff, but they smelled delicious and I'm keeping this place in the back of my mind in case I'm nearby again. I bet this place is popular at night with the college students. Also, this is close to campus so most people probably walk here but if you need to park, there are parking spots at the intersection with parking meters. You're in and out so quick, though, that you probably don't even need to bother paying for parking. We didn't. And neither did the guy who parked behind us and also came into Insomnia.

    The cookies here are delicious. Period. Warm, gooey, and chocolaty. The only issue with this location is there is no where to park. I wish that you could order and they would run it out to you real fast while you were at the stop sign. Parking is a major issue, I drive around for 15 minutes then had to cafe and pay $5 to park so I could get a cookie

    Vegan cookies yes please! The cookies were pretty good. A little undercooked but pretty tasty overall. I got the vegan chocolate chunk and the birthday cake. The store front was very cute as well. I gave 3 stars because 1) they are a cashless store. And 2) because the customer service was not great. The guy was extremely annoyed that we walked in and wasn't welcoming at all. Parking wasn't an issue for us but I could see it being a challenge on the weekend. We used meter parking up the street.

    order placed at 8:18. delivered at 9:28. called to say they forgot our icecream at 9:30 (pictures to show no icecream and receipt where they HIGHLIGHTED to include icecream). call went straight to a call center where they agreed to redo the entire order. waited another 50 minutes, called at 10:18. two hours at this point for just some icecream and cookies that weren't cold. we asked where the cookies were and the agent said they could not get ahold of the store. ended up canceling the order and was not given any solutions (or freebies). update: we got the icecream (and new cookies) almost 3 n a half hours after ordering.

    A Sixpack (minus one) of four Peanut Butter Chip Cookies and two Double Chocolate Mint Cookies...my favorites!

    I love walking into this place...it always smells amazing! And the cookies are always soft and warm when you get them, which is exactly how I like them. I have had some issues with delivery in the past, but I work close enough to walk here on my lunch break, so I usually do that instead. If you can, I definitely recommend picking them up rather than delivery. The cookies are amazing, and the prices are reasonable...$20 for a dozen and $11 for a sixpack. My absolute hands down favorite is the peanut butter chip cookie...but the double chocolate mint are a close second. If you're in this area of campus, I'd definitely check it out...it's worth it!

    S'mores cookie was good needed more graham cracker but good

    Went here and Crumbl cookie the cookies here were much better, cheaper and easier to get. We got 4 deluxe cookies and all were good. If you are in Lexington Ky dont listen to tiktok and come here you will have a better treat.

    Traditional Cookies.

    I read on Yelp events that Insomnia Cookies was giving away free cookies. I was in the area so I stopped by. I love smell of the shop and they offered a lot in cookie and brownie options. I chose a peanut butter and it took me back to my childhood when I would bake cookies with my family. I received great and I was actually able to park in there lot. Great experience. I will definitely be back.

    I'll give it two stars, at best…read more LexEatIn was the first third-party food delivery service in Lexington. Before there was GrubHub, Takeout Taxi, or Uber Eats or anything like that, there was LexEatIn. When they opened, the idea was revolutionary. . .that you could order food online and a company would pick it up and deliver it to you. It gave you delivery options for food beyond the traditional delivery options of pizza or Chinese food. At their peak you could get burgers and fries, Indian food, Italian, French, soul food, and numerous other cuisines delivered through them. For several years, I was a loyal customer of LexEatIn. Late nights at the office and can't take time off to go out for dinner? I'd get food delivered. Wanted something delivered other than Chinese or Pizza? I'd go to LexEatIn. However, there are reasons that they only get two stars. One: They tended to take a long time with any delivery. Instead of delivery in 30 or 45 minutes like ordering delivery would normally take, food from them would come in roughly 45 minutes to an hour or two later. It was often cold. Their process of picking up and delivering the food wasn't very efficient in that regard. Two: They were rather bad about cancelling orders. You'd place an order, then they'd cancel it. Apparently the hours they accepted orders for various restaurants didn't line up well with their actual operating hours. Three: They became downright notorious for how poorly they treated their delivery drivers. They got a reputation for stealing tips (you'd put a tip on the credit card, LexEatIn wouldn't forward it). They got into lawsuits with delivery drivers over refusing to pay their drivers. The State Government started an investigation into their employment practices and they stonewalled and refused to comply with subpoenas. When they were sued they refused to turn over subpoenaed documents and had to be threatened with contempt of court to get them to turn over employment records of their drivers (who they insisted were "independent contractors", the drivers disagreed). They became known for being in the news every so often for the latest updates in their legal problems about how they treat their drivers. Some tried to say it was inevitable with any food delivery that these problems would happen. . .but you don't hear about lawsuits like this from pizza places or other delivery joints. Once other delivery services came into town, they beat the pants off of LexEatIn. While normally I'd like to go with a local business and not a chain or national service, they were so clearly superior to LexEatIn that I took my business to them (and I think most of Lexington did too).

    Made a large order gave huge tip, requested for ketchup etc. One item was missing from our order,…read morecalled back to get order sent, they hung up t hen called back attitude was given said food will be there. It is already paid for and lunch will be over and one of our employees has no food. We also did not receive any ketchup we spent over $100 bucks! Never again!! An hour later we finally received our missing item, thrown in a bag, leaking and cold. I called the manager argued with me because we wanted a refund? How difficult is it to give money back when the food is now what we wanted? I need to know who the owners are to contact them. this is a horrible company and I have written bad reviews on Better Business Bureau and every other place I can find.

    Horrible! Called to get a different pizza and the supervisor said we were being too difficult and wouldn't help us. Worst service EVER!
