Levain Bakery sells thick, crunchy, and gooey cookies baked fresh daily.

Levain Bakery's cookies are known for their indulgent, rich, and gooey texture, as well as their size. The cookies are often described as small cakes, with a perfect balance of crispy exterior and soft, gooey interior. However, some customers find them too rich or thick, and there are mixed opinions about their taste when bought frozen. The bakery is also criticized for its high prices and some customers find certain flavors underwhelming.

Levain cookies are as decadent as it gets. Each little bakery is quaint, full of incredible cookies that are thick, warm, and oh so gooey. Chock full of chocolate and/or nuts, the best are straight from the oven, where there is a cookie dough like center. If you like thick, gooey cookies with a lightly crisp exterior, these are for you.

very good! Make sure you have lots of milk or water on hand - these cookies are iconic and smell heavenly, but they're also very rich and I can't imagine eating more than 1/2 of one in one sitting. 

Both the in-store cookies, and frozen cookies are amazing. I haven't had a flavor I didn't like! They are on the more dense side so keep that in mind! They're also huge so they're great for sharing IMO.

Always a good idea. I now go for their vegan option — I wish that they would separate out the vegan and gluten-free alternatives, but certainly better to have something than nothing!

the cookies are flavorful, but I feel like they're a bit too thick & dry for me

The best cookies I've ever had, tried them for the first time in 2014 and it was a life changing experience. 

Best cookies ever. I always visit any location I see. Super thick! 

Not a cookie girl but love their chocolate chips cookie. I often buy them as a gift and take out of town friends to their stores as well. 


Levain bakery is best fresh. I do not like ordering it in or saving it for later. You want them hot and piping. Needless to say I always have a bit of a stomach ache after them.
