“Casey's at 36th and Irvinedale Dr. is pretty much our go to convenience store. On this occasion, we ordered a medium Taco Pizza online, and were told it would be done in 20 min. (note... On busy weekends during FB season, we've waited 45 min, so plan accordingly.) I got there a few minutes early and the lady said my pizza would be out of the oven in a cpl minutes. While I was waiting, I took note of the coffee station, as I often stop at this very same place for morning coffee. The place was SPOTLESS as usual (pics). Now for the pizza. We're usually deep dish pizza people, but for Taco Pizza, Casey's nails it with a thinner doughy crust. We love it. Hope too that management reads this and takes note that a customer appreciated the cleanliness of the store!”

“Oh my days. What an experience. Me and my family just moved to Ankeny from Tel Aviv and this was the pizza recommendation we kept hearing from locals. We decided to give it a shot and they did NOT disappoint! My pizza was cooked to perfection and the cheesy bread sticks were equally tasty. I called the store moments after finishing and asked who made the pizza. The lady that answered the phone said it was two young men named Konner and Madden. I had a short conversation with each of them where they gave me their pizza cooking secrets and appreciation for my acknowledgment of their hardworking nature. God bless these young men and God bless Casey’s General Store!!”
