About Cookie Chris
We had a great first visit to Cookie Chris! The service was excellent and the staff was super friendly. We opted for the 12-cookie box and it was perfect for trying different flavors. Here’s what we got: French Toast – A little firm, but had a fun Cinnamon Toast Crunch flavor. Blueberry Crumble – Unique with nice little bursts of blueberry. Vanilla Cupcake – My kids’ favorite! Soft and sweet. Strawberry Cheesecake – My son loved it. Orange Creamsicle – My mom’s favorite! Chocolate Chip – My personal favorite—classic and not overly fancy. My only small complaint was that they were out of three flavors when we arrived, and the display didn’t reflect that. My mom really wanted the peanut butter chocolate, but even with that, the staff still made it a great experience. We’ll definitely be back!
Cookie Chris never fails to amaze me! Every visit brings a new variety of cookies to try, and I haven’t had one yet that I didn’t absolutely love. From the Biscoff to the Rainbow Cookie, the Triple Chocolate Chip, Oreo, classic Chocolate Chip, Sugar Cookie, and even the fun Cookie Monster Cookie—each one is delicious in its own way. And it’s not just the cookies—the ice cream is fantastic too. I’m lactose intolerant, but I find that I don’t have nearly as much trouble with their ice cream as I do elsewhere. My personal favorite is the Butter Pecan—it’s so buttery, rich, and fresh-tasting. On top of all that, the staff is always friendly, orders are prepared promptly, and the quality is consistently excellent. Cookie Chris gets a solid 5 stars in my book!
Anyone that knows me knows I LOVE me a good cookie!! And Cookie Chris has some of the most amazing cookies & variety of flavorful flavors I’ve ever tasted. Originally my first visit here in December 2024 was because I heard of this young man’s story of starting his business at the age of 17 while still in high school excelling , playing sports and working all at the same time so I wanted to show some love & support. However, I purposely planned this second visit to Cookie Chris this weekend and even looked at the menu in advance before heading down from New Jersey to visit family. This second visit ( and definitely not my last 😌) was an even better experience! Not only did I get me a delicious 6 pack of multiple types of cookies to take back to New Jersey with me, I met Chris’s mom Fran who along with her husband run the store while Chris is away at College. AMAZING cookies, AMAZING custom service, AMAZING inspiring young man’s story and an AMAZINGLY blessed family. I will absolutely be checking their website for the new weekly flavors each time I make my monthly visits to Virginia💜
Like many others I really wanted to like these cookies. The owner has a great story and I enjoy supporting small businesses when I can. However, the cookies just weren't very good. Ordered a 4 pack ($16.79 with tax). 1 lemon, 1 strawberry, 1 Easter sugar and 1 peanut butter with Reese's. 3 of the 4 were so RAW in center that you could still taste the flour. They were not gooey as advertised, but undercooked and very oily on the bottom. ( Yes, I know the difference). They were not appetizing. One other thing to note is that the cookies had varied sizes with some being very large and others small. Need more uniformity if you are charging the same price per cookie.
I'm not going to stay these are PERFECT cookies but I will say this is the most balanced cookie I have ever tasted in my life! It has the perfect amount of sweet and flavorful experience. The flavors were only enhanced by the customer service. If you are looking to brighten your day this is definitely the place to visit.
