3 stars on atmosphere I mean this is not a place where you go sit down to eat. Employees are the coolest. And you can't say enough about the pizza. And I even joined the club.

My best experience with any Papa Murphy's in the Cedar Rapids area!! All of the employees are SO nice, considerate and personable. They listen to what you order, ask/double check so they don't make any mistakes, and greet you when you enter and exit. That's true customer service, and it goes a LONG with me. Keep up the awesome work!!!

Ordered a pizza for pick-up, I’ve never had a problem with papa Murphy’s and have loved them for years, but I’m half way through my pizza, and I’ve had 3 long hairs in my pizza so far. This is disgusting. Please make sure some people have hairnets or like a bun and hat or something if needed….

Right after I pushed an online order through, I saw a BOGO offer for large pizzas on FB. I told the store that I understood if they couldn't do anything like take money off of my order since it was already made, but they did!!!

Great staff! They really help you navigate and get the best deals. The rewards club helps too and is easy to use. I loved the fresh gorgeous food. It kept in my fridge until we wanted to cook and eat it. Just wonderful! TUESDAYS ARE THE BEST DEAL DAYS!
