I heard about Levain when it was only in New York! I was obsessed, and was so excited when they expanded to Chicago. Honestly, one of the best chocolate chip cookies out there. Photo is from 2016 in NYC.

Levain Bakery
4.6 • 163 Reviews
Levain Bakery sells thick, crunchy, and gooey cookies baked fresh daily.

Levain Bakery earns glowing reviews as a destination for ultra-thick, gooey cookies that many call the best—especially the classic Chocolate Chip Walnut and Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip—yet feedback flags drawbacks like extreme sweetness, dense heaviness, and inconsistency versus frozen or shipped versions. Reviews also praise warm, fresh-from-the-oven texture, generous mix-ins, friendly shops, and standout breads, while noting limited flavors and that some cookies taste too rich, dry, or overhyped for certain palates.

I was in New York for work and lots of people suggested Levain Bakery to me. It was very walkable from my office so I thought why not. I thought they were good, solid cookies but didn't necessarily "wow" me. If you want a generally good cookie, deff try them!
Decided to treat myself on an evening out with a friend and I’m so glad I did. Absolutely worth the hype, super moist and chocolatey, the perfect sweet snack. Cute packaging too!!


It’s a must stop in New York. The hood are always fresh and the cookies are to die for. Absolutely love. Worth the hype that these cookies get.
