I’m a cookie lover so when I spotted the long line I had try what was all about! If you go for it ASK FOR IT WARM, I’m sure it makes a big difference! I would describe it as semi chewy, not crunchy on the outside, with a stronger flavor than most cookies. I have to admit for someone that does not like white chocolate the one they use in the dark chocolate cookie was quite good i was surprised i liked it. I give it a 3-4 just because it’s not my personal type of cookie.

Cookies were surprisingly good! Not a sweet tooth but found it yummy! Also ordered their special hot chocolate served in an edible cookie cup.

There was a short queue when I came but was quickly cleared.

Tasty cookies, something sweet after Fabel?

Tried the caramel one, the dark chocolate, the brownie one.
The 3 of them are nice, crunchy, the size is just ok for the price : 8,50 euros for 3.

You can have them slightly warm and I must say it makes a nice difference as it melts in your mouth.

Worth trying for sure.

During waiting for fries, I just walked into this shop and feel they are very tasty. I bought Brownie which they warmed for me. It’s very delicious. Will be back to try others!

Came here with high hopes but unfortunately this instagram influencer inspired cookie shop is just a hype and tourist trap. It seems their quality control was lacking and they were in a mad rush one afternoon. We were served raw cookies as pictured, that were tasteless.
