Original Location, 74th St, Nyc

Omg I will be dreaming about these cookies forever… so so good! Warm, gooey, moist but crunchy. 10/10. We ordered a few and ate them over a few days, and they were still delicious despite not being able to heat them up again (as recommended). Went to 2 different locations whilst in New York and loved both.

This is probably one of the best cookie that I’ve tasted in New York and I can appreciate how they start with very small shop in the basement, the cookies itself are very fresh and crunchy in the outside, but have a gooey texture halfway when you bite it. It’s so good! The dark chocolate with peanut butter would be my favourite because it just melts in your mouth, I like the way the shop is decorated too! Would be come back for this and hope this bakery open in Australia one day!

Tldr; a good solid warm cookie to go - small location, a bit of a hazard to get in. cramped when inside tho ): - good value for $5, really get your money's worth and tasty! - staff were friendly and gave good recs and went beyond to store cookie for a friend back home - too sweet for my taste, but not so sweet it made it hard to eat. I'd recommend it for cookie lovers and cravings, but not the most amazing dessert.

Levain cookies are a must try when in NYC! Their cookies are crispy on the outside, gooey in the inside and they are constantly baking fresh cookies throughout the day, whatever the time of the day you will get fresh cookies! A great selection of other pastries and muffins too! I’d probably like a little less sugar however that’s a personal choice ! Our top favourites were choco chip walnut cookie and the dark chocolate chip cookie! There’s a good amount of choc chip in the cookies as compared to other cookies we have eaten at different places!

It’s a very tasty cookie, but not the best in the world. Levain’s claim to fame is their chocolate walnut cookie. The cookies aren’t cheap, but they are absolutely massive. The cookies are super fresh: they are constantly baking new batches which is great. You can see them take fresh ones out of the oven, as you wait in the queue for your turn. As for the cookie itself: it’s warm, crispy on the outside, and moist and buttery on the inside. The chocolate inside is nice and melted and the nuts bring a good texture. I personally found the cookie a bit too sweet: a pinch of sea salt would have been great for example to cut through the richness.
