Service was excellent. She gave us good tips since it was our first time. Peanut butter Cookie was amazing and ice cream was good. read more

Insomnia Cookies - Peanut butter cookie with caramel ice cream on top - Desserts Near Me - State College, Pennsylvania

Overpriced little cookies at practically $3 a piece. you can get freshly baked cookies at McLanahan's for the same price and they're huge!

My daughter's birthday is today and I'm 4+ hours away so last night about 10:30pm I decided to order a treat. Today is also blue & white game day so I knew I'd be very limited. I looked at the Insomnia Cookie website and decided to order from there. I ordered online with a 12:30am delivery. My daughter then indicated she wanted it by 11:30pm and I called the store to change the delivery time. It wasn't an issue at all and I got updates with a final one at 11:27pm that it was officially delivered! My daughter got it and sent pics saying it was delicious!!! It was a great experience and thank you so much for kicking off my daughter's birthday! read more

Insomnia are good cookies. Popped into this weird, little location around 7:30 in a week night. The counter guy was hanging out front and followed us in, no biggie, just not expecting that. The cookies are in the rear out of view and came out served in individual pouches. . read more

Average and expensive cookies. I guess I need to be a drunk college kid to appreciate this place......

Hey. We got cookies delivered to our hotel. Warm. Gooey. Gluten free. Frosted. Cookies. Delivered. This was an amazing experience, fast and our cookies were so good. I want to go back to state college just for more delivery cookies read more

The one guy who works there is honestly the nicest man ever. I've been there twice in the past two months and I think we've become good friends, so shout out to him. They were painting last time I was in, but it was also 1am at insomnia cookies, so you know, maintenance happens whenever. The cookies are fire and he gave us recommendations where we were confused. Overall 10:10. Please give this man a raise he is single handedly holding up insomnia cookies. read more

Went to insomnia late at night; expected the workers to act annoyed as others usually do, but walked in and experienced the best service ever. I would love to give credit to Michael and Maria they were awesome and super welcoming. defiently will come back just for them. The cookies and ice cream were fresh and amazing. read more

Such a great treat on a recent trip. I was staying at a hotel in the area and craving something sweet. I ordered online and the delivery was super fast and efficient (note: I was there when school wasn't in session, so I assume things are less busy). This was my first experience with Insomnia Cookies and I'm so glad I don't live closer to the one in Pittsburgh or I would be ordering it far too often. I highly suggest trying this place. read more

One of my hobbies is baking, so as you can imagine I have some pretty high standards when it comes to cookies. Even if my standards are high, though, I try to keep my mind open when I eat cookies I didn't bake myself. Having heard about Insomnia before, I had an idea in my head about what to expect but it fell a little short of my expectations for a few reasons. First, the idea of a delivery service for milk and cookies and ice cream is incredible, especially in a college town. The selection of cookies was decent, but it wasn't anything you could call impressive. Peanut butter, chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, M&M, oatmeal raisin, etc., nothing really out of the ordinary. If you wanted one of the deluxe cookies, you better be prepared to spend over $3 a cookie. We didn't really look much into the milk or ice cream being that my boyfriend is lactose intolerant, but it looks like there were a few options to choose from (although they were also pricy). We were visiting Happy Valley for the weekend and had a slight sweet tooth so we opted for a takeout order of a half dozen cookies. The cookies were small but I was holding out hope that for nearly $9 they would be over-the-top with flavor. Unfortunately, the cookies left a bit to be desired. They were warm so I'm not questioning the freshness, but you'd just expect a little more for the high price. When I was in college $9 would have been more wisely spent on a 24 pack of chicken-flavored Ramen. Not a bad concept, but I guess on a night of drunken shenanigans I could see where the idea of getting cookies delivered would be enticing! read more

okay........ so I love cookies.... but not when they take 40 MORE MINUTES THAN THEY SAID THEY WOULD. IT IS 1030 AND MY cookies WERE SUPPOSED TO BE HERE 40 MIN AGO. customer service...BAD. we called 2x and all they said was "they're on the way" and "were out of drivers". Disappointed to say the least... I expect more from a college town cookie shop. I could've crawled from my dorm in east all the way to the shop and gotten my cookies in the same amount of time. bet they'd be warmer too... do not recommend, but cookies will be tasty :P. xoxo skatie ps YALL JUSt straigt up incompetent -Daanie read more

Rather good cookies but not very big. I'd say they're medium size. For the size we felt they were a bit pricy. We bought the sample 6 pack cookies and each was pleasant. There uniqueness is they are on campus and open very late to cater to students out in the night partying. Good idea. read more

No doubt five stars. These cookies were amazing and they delivered to our hotel. Cookies are one of my many weaknesses and among the biggest. We got a couple of mixes and they were all awesome. Salted caramel got rave reviews, triple chocolate chunk amazing. They were unbelievable while warm and still awfully good the next day. We didn't need deluxe cookies while eating other less than healthy foods but we're glad we got them. And cookies for breakfast is always a plus. read more

A perfect solution to send loved ones a gift when they are away at college! Great selection and the fact that they deliver according to the squirrelly schedules of college students is brilliant! We ordered 5 large cookie cakes and they wrote on each one a part of the birthday greeting! We added 3 quarts of ice cream and it was like a small party delivered at any time up til 4am! Huge huge epic success, will nourish my son and his roommates until at least the weekend...maybe! Great customer service! read more

Insomnia Cookies - This is how to send a Long Distance Birthday Greeting! - Desserts Near Me - State College, Pennsylvania

One of my cookies had a piece missing like someone bit it or ripped it off. Absolutely disgusting and unsanitary. Tell your employees to keep there hands out of the cookie jar. I didn't even want to eat the rest of the cookies after seeing that. read more

Worst insomnia Cookie I've been to in the country. We drove 15 minutes from our hotel to get here to grab cookies at 10:45 on a Thursday night since Otto's was closed. They had a pile of cookies in the store and told us we were not allowed to buy any because they had online orders. They told us to come back another time. When you advertise that you're open till 3 a.m. you don't just turn customers away that are walk ins. read more

Ridiculously overpriced for what amounts to the same taste as those artificial sugar cookies you'll find at the supermarket. Customer service was also pretty poor. You're better off spending money somewhere else. read more

Whoever came up with the idea for Insomnia Cookies is a genius. I remember seeing a special on Food Network about them before I moved to State College, and was ecstatic when I heard that there was one just down the street from my apartment. The cookies are delicious and the delivery doesn't seem to take too long - usually around 30 to 45 minutes. I love that there is a wide selection of sweets to choose from: cookies of all varieties, brownies that can be customized (you can add pretty much anything from cookie dough to rainbow sprinkles), pints or quarts of ice cream, brownies and cookies a la Mode, cookie cakes, and the very necessary pints and quarts of milk. My ordering experiences haven't been the greatest, hence the 4-star review. Even though there are three ways to order (insomniacookies.com, lionmenus.com, and 1-877-63-COOKIE), something always goes wrong. For some reason, I can never submit orders via the main website. And sadly, there is no option to use a gift card on lionmenus.com. Tonight I had to order by calling the hotline. The woman I spoke to had no idea what she was doing. I had to repeat my order multiple times because she kept refreshing the page and had to enter my information over and over again. However, she was very nice and apologized for the inconvenience. Of course, my order arrived after a short time and all was right with the world. =] read more

If you have a sweet tooth or are in love with cookies, then you have certainly come to the right spot. Insomnia Cookies seems to be near every large college campus, and Penn State is definitely not overlooked in this process. This cookie spot is located on the east side of campus, near the Starbucks and Uncle Chen. Don't worry too much about parking because there's plenty of spots in the shopping center. If you get lazy, don't fret, they also deliver via LionMenus. As far as the cookies go, they are baked fresh throughout the day. Once you order your cookie for $1.25, the guy literally pulls it out of the over and hands it to you. It comes out with your crispy cookie edge, but soft and chewy center. With the chocolate chip cookies, the chocolate is literally melting as you eat. Ok, so if chocolate chip is not your cookie of choice, then they also have everything from oatmeal raisin to a simple sugar cookie. On top of all the cookies, they also serve drinks like milk, as well as some ice cream. This is seriously a place where you can put some serious punishment to your stomach. Make sure to eat at your own risk. If you don't watch out, pretty soon you'll jump from a size 30 waist to a 40, and will sweat chocolate while you walk. This place is open late, so for all that need a desert at 2am, you're in luck. read more

It is an interesting concept in a college town. Got crowded very quickly. Cookies were good, but nothing special. They reminded me a lot of the cookies from the places in the malls that used to be in every food court. They were expensive per cookie and had a wide variety of ordering options. Good to try, but perhaps for the younger crowd. read more

There's nothing better than eating a cookie that's pulled right out of the oven at 1am. Yes, as the name implies this is the place to go during the wee-early-morning hours. I love the S'mores cookies which is a little more expensive than the general chocolate chip cookie. You can even buy two cookies with ice cream and make an ice cream sandwich. If you go during 4p-6p(?) the cookies are buy one get one free! read more

I love insomnia cookies but I wouldn't suggest getting cookies delivered. Delivery always takes way too long no matter if you order in the evening or after midnight. I've ordered 3 or 4 times and it always takes at least an hour. However, if you want to stop into the shop and eat there, the cookies are great. read more

i got food poisoning from this place. i called in to let one of the workers know and he was like "okay?" so he didnt really help. i eventually got a refund from grubhub but that experience put me off this place. read more

Very interesting find in State College. They are open till 3 am, which is a good thing for my weird suger cravings. Loved their cookies, macademia nut cookie was best. read more

I went in tonight with my service dog in my arm. Right when I walked in the girl at the front didn't even greet me and said that my dog can't be in here. I explained he was my service dog and she did not care. She said she will only serve me if I put him outside. I explained that I legally am allowed to bring him in with me anywhere and that I will not put him on the ground. She then, in the most passive aggressive voice said "OKAY WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE?" And proceeded to make me feel uncomfortable. I was embarrassed and the other workers did not bud in at all. Terrible service and I will never be going here again. read more

I love that this place is open very late, as it should be with a college town. The cookies are good, but 'nothing to write home about'. Expensive per cookie, but they deliver and it's easy to order. I've had deliveries in the past, and I stopped in one time as well. Sometimes the cookies are a little underdone in the middle (especially the peanut butter cookies), but perhaps some people like that? To me, I'd rather my cookies have a chewy and crispy consistency than fat and doughy. For example, I'd prefer cookies from the Wegman's bakery ten fold over Insomnia Cookies. But I digress, because I appreciate this place being here in town, and do enjoy grabbing something from here once every few months. My favorite is the Snicker-doodle. read more

Expensive cookies and weak customer service. Would not recommend. I will say that my cookie was good, so that's a plus. But very pricey for what you get, and the employees clearly hate their jobs. read more

Almost every time their order has a cookie or brownie missing. I placed an order for 5 Strawberry milkshakes and haven't got them delivered in two days! Their excuse: they don't have enough Strawberries. read more

So you ask yourself why come here? Plain and simple...there is nothing better than a warm cookie straight out of the oven. Whether it is during limited hours during the summer, or a 1AM craving for chocolate chunk, sugar, or oatmeal, they always have cookies in their warmer. Service is about what you can expect at a cookie place in a college town, but generally there isn't a line and you can get in and out quickly. You even can get ice cream if you want...though I am generally just picking up a few cookies. read more

I waited an hour for cookies and they messed up my order and didn't get half of what I ordered

I give it 2 stars because the cookies are absolutely delicious. Everything else about the business is lackluster. They are crazy expensive. It'll cost you about $25 plus tip to get 12 cookies delivered to you. There's another issue, the delivery. The first 2 times we ordered from them we ended up having to call the store because over an hour and half went by and they still weren't delivered yet. The most recent time we got them we agreed, while they are really good, it just isn't worth that crazy price for 12 cookies when we could get a dinner for 2 at a restaurant for the same price. If they just lowered their prices I could see myself ordering from them once a week. read more

The cookies are great. The prices and delivery are not. The concept is simple and kinda foolproof: a delivery restaurant specializing in cookies, in a college town. It's a no-brainer, right? The sort of thing you'd see getting delivered to dorms and apartments all over town. But it isn't terribly logical at all to get Insomnia Cookies delivered. The cookies are so overpriced that it's a bit laughable. Add on the absurd delivery costs of Order Up, and you've ended up with an order of a dozen cookies that costs $23. These cookies aren't particularly large, either; they're about 3 inches wide. Plus, the delivery is pretty terrible, even for Order Up- it will take at the minimum 40 minutes for the cookies to be delivered, regardless of your location. Of the two times I have ordered Insomnia Cookies, both took around an hour to deliver. Unless you're really craving cookies (which definitely happens sometimes), it's probably smarter to not order Insomnia Cookies. Pros: The cookies taste great Nice variety of flavors and variations Warm cookies delivered to your door Cons: Expensive! Bad delivery times read more

Very expensive and tastes like store bought cookies. I would like a warm and gooey Cooley that tastes fresh out of the oven for the price that you pay. The cookie was cold and hard like it had been out for a few days. Ew. read more

Heaven. Could only be improved by adding gluten free options so my wife could partake as well!

They actually have the worst service I've ever seen in my life. They don't have someone working in the front, and there have been so many times where I've waited 10-15 minutes just for someone to come to the front from the back to just take my order, plus extra time to make it. When I order from insomnia to get it delivered, they've messed up my orders/forgotten things a bunch of times too. Once I had to wait over 3 hours for my order because they were having some event, but they didn't advertise that it was going on so some person who just wanted insomnia wouldn't have known that they were so backed up. Just not worth the trouble read more

The drivers are so incredibly nice and considerate. They have such great service. They were so kind to my friends and i which was so sweet because we were such a large group. read more

Of course the cookies are really good. It's the service that is terrible. Of course insomnia cookies is high in demand at a college so have more than one delivery man. It took over 2 hrs to get a few cookies. Not ordering here again. Only we'll eat it if I'm near the downtown area. read more

Awful delivery via OrderUp. Placed the order at 10:30, waited around for an hour and a half before calling it quits and going to bed. Was then awoken by my roommate at 12:30 am saying the order had come. At that point I wasn't even in the mood for them, and just went back to sleep. I'm upset I left a tip at the time of payment. Get your delivery issues worked out. read more

Cookies and milk delievered right to your door, and at a great price cannot go wrong! You can also order online or by phone with pick up also being an option. Not In the mood for a big box delivery? Walk in available with different cookie options. You can make it a Sundae, ice cream is available as well if you wanted to step it up to a milk shake. If you're in the mood for a cheap, but absolute fresh quality, go here. Being open very late (especially during finals week) is also a huge plus. read more

Cool concept- I was super excited to try it. But for the price was expecting a really delicious cookie. But it wasn't warm and gooey. It was not warm and kind of hard. Too hard to cut with just a spoon. I'm happy I tried it- but I don't think I'd really go back... read more
