While the food at Cookie Chris was absolutely delicious, the service and overall atmosphere were immaculate! My boyfriend and I needed a sugar boost at the end of the day, and after driving by multiple times, we finally decided to stop in... and I'm so glad we did. The owner, Chris, was incredibly professional while also being patient with my indecision, offering thoughtful suggestions and creating such a welcoming environment. Beyond that, he was genuinely kind, funny, and made the entire experience memorable. We will absolutely be returning the next time we need a sweet treat!!! read more

Cookie Chris - Fudge Stripe with the delicious oatmeal cookie cream ice cream! - Desserts Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

We came in tonight for cookies, and the experience was unacceptable. First, the weekly flavors in-store didn't match what was advertised online. Then, while there was only one employee working, the bigger issue wasn't just speed, it was complete lack of organization and service. Our first orders came out, but my cookie ice cream sandwich had barely any ice cream compared to my husband's. Like not even a scoop of ice cream it was like a spoonful. For $14, that's inexcusable. We then placed an order for four cookies. Instead of finishing our order, the employee repeatedly prioritized a large family behind us. She asked what we had ordered "said the system didn't register it" but when one person stepped away briefly, she chose to serve other customers which included giving away the exact cookies we had already ordered. When our friend came back (not even 5 min later) we were told the cookies we ordered were no longer available. Instead of addressing the mistake or offering a solution, she continued serving multiple other customers while we waited nearly an hour with no resolution and no refund. While it's clear she was overwhelmed, that does not excuse the lack of basic service, communication, or accountability. No business should be operating with one employee if this is the result. Overall, this was a frustrating and poorly handled experience from start to finish read more

Great place to stop in as a family for a sweet homemade treat. I loved that the cookie were warm. I had the gingerbread and my daughter had the cookie dough. The decor was adorable and the service was incredible. read more

Omg when you walk in it smells lovely like cookies!!! The customer service was phenomenal. I like how they have a display of the cookies or the week. I decided to try the strawberry shortcake and it was so delicious!!! I was planning to eat half and ate the whole cookie!!! I also tried the Cookie Monster ice cream and it was so good. I decided to purchase a scoop before I left and it was amazing. I can't wait to come back!! read more

After having lunch nearby in Williamsburg last Saturday, Sophia and I drove here to check out desserts. Knowing we don't travel here much, seeing what the area has as options was a much needed relief. Let's see how the visit went. This business actually started Chris Knight Jr, who was a high school student from the 'Burg who balanced life as a student, being involved in athletics and having a passion for baking sweets. The flagship store opened up in 2022 and receive a good amount of publicity. He even opened up another location in Henrico with a 3rd spot reportedly in the works. He's now a student at Morehouse College. Great stuff indeed!! The Williamsburg spot is beautiful. The walls were painted great, the tables are spotless and on the counter was a collection of cookies that were made for the week. The only permanent selection was chocolate chip, but the rest were temporary. Sophia decided no on cookies, but you know how I am. Trying anything is possible. I selected a Biscoff cookie, which was crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside. The cookie itself wasn't too sweet and large enough to fill a saucer plate. The design of the to-go box was cool as well. Another diamond worth discovering. A pretty cool spot with sweets galore. You know that we'll be back here soon :) read more

I heard about Cookie Chris through Richmond news and was excited to give the original location a try. Upon walking in you're immediately engulfed in the smell of cookies. The menu is straightforward. They have a display of this week's cookies and several options for different counts. They also have 12 flavors of ice cream. A single cookie is $4.49, a 4-pack is $17, a 6-pack is $24, and a 12-pack is $42. We tried 4 different flavors and they were all very soft and warm. The chocolate lava was very chocolatey as expected. The rest could've used more flavor. The banana caramel was our favorite because it's unique. We felt for the price they were a tad underwhelming but we were happy to support this small business with a great founding story. read more

Their cookies are so good! Nice and big and they warm them up and there's nothing like a warm cookie. The decor is fun and the inside is small. It was my first time here. They greeted us as we walked in and asked everyone they served if it was their first time. If it was your first time she took the time to explain the menu and the cookie flavors of the day. We went late (9pm) and they had just added a new flavor to the display. Service was quick and the people were friendly. Excellent experience! read more

Developed by a young African American man. I was blown away by the article and the his vision. I ordered a chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream. The chocolate chip cookie! I went with my family all we can say was that was a good cookie. As we were eating and when we were done. That was a good cookie! I highly recommend. Hope to see this establishment in the 757. This is a Henrico review. read more

Cute concept, bright interior, and informative staff. Other than that, the cookies were meh. Our cookies were much better day two and three versus day one. I actually did not like the cookie initially, upon purchase. So glad I didn't throw it away, and tasted it the next day. I wouldn't visit again. There are other commercial cookie establishments in the area I'd prefer to visit where the prices are equivalent and the quality is top notch. Cheers to a great time! read more

Cookie Chris opened in Williamsburg in 2022 on Richmond Road. After passing it many times, I finally went in and purchased four cookies, which were Pecan, Cinnamon Bun, Cornbread, and Mint Chocolate. They change flavors every Friday. The helpful clerk went into the back to retrieve, heat, and box my cookies. At $3.99 per cookie (discount when you buy four or a dozen), I expected to bite into the best cookie I ever tasted. While they are good cookies, $3.99 is a lot for one cookie. The cookies are pretty thin, though they are 4 to 5 inches in diameter. The shop itself is cute with bright blue walls and neon signs. They also offers a variety of ice cream flavors and milkshakes. I'm glad I tried Cookie Chris. It was a nice treat. read more

Staff greeted us in a loud friendly manner as soon as we walked in the door. We were vacationing in the area and had driven by a few times and decided to give this local business a try! So glad we did. We tried a 4 pack and got the chocolate chip, the oatmeal chocolate chip x2 (my favorite) and the Oreo. All were good sized and warm and delicious when we got them. They were also still soft the following day when we snacked on the left overs pieces on our drive home. We would all recommend and would go back when in the area again! We definitely recommend supporting this local business. read more

I recently saw his story online so I had to support. I ordered a 4pk. The cookies are delicious! It's great to see what he is accomplishing. He actually has 2 locations open in Virginia. He goes to college here in Atlanta GA area. I actually ordered my cookies online 2 day shipping! The cookies are delicious! I was trying to get some food before I tried my cookies. I didn't eat lunch at work that day.I got a oreo,red velvet,birthday cake and strawberry and cream cookie. I let my bro try the last cookie he said that it's delicious. The oreo cookie though! All of the cookies are delicious! Read inside the box! read more

Tried the lemon cookie was delicious and very big but I will say that it it pricey (ended up being like $5.25)

Unfortunately, I wanted this place to be so good, but it disappointed! I went in on Friday night, and the 2 women working didn't know any answers to my questions. They didn't know what the cookies were made of , what kind of cookie was which.. etc. I love lemon cookies, but this one was very dry and tasteless: the sugar cookie I got was ok, but not what I was expecting. I'd suggest the workers learning their menu. read more

The store was empty so ordering was a breeze. A pack of 4 was $14.99 Which seemed a little pricey for cookies. We picked for flavors but the cookies might have been old because they were super crunchy and they weren't served warm ( which I assume they would be) . Eating them the next day wasn't pleasant either. Inside is cute with decor though read more

As soon as you walk in you will be greeted by the best sugary sweet smell! The shop rotates flavors so be sure to check before you go and you can order milk with your cookies. My favorite was the very classic chocolate chip. I thought the cookies were very sweet, almost a little too sweet for me, but maybe they would be perfect for someone else. I definitely think it's worth trying on your own and I would come back to try different flavors. read more

Was in the area going to Busch gardens and this place was beside my hotel. I am so glad that I stumbled upon it. When you walk in you are immediately hit with the smell of freshly baked cookies while being greeted by all of the staff. I ordered a milkshake and a butter pecan cookie. We waited about 5 minutes for our items. The inside is very clean with great decor all over the wall. There's plenty of seating available if you want to eat inside. The milkshake was fabulous and the cookie was the best I've ever had. It was warmed up and so gooey and flavorful. If you're in the area you have to give this place a stop. read more

My husband went in and came out with a very fancy box with Cookie Chris written on it, and he complained about how much he paid and pretty much grumbling about paying for the fancy box, they could have just given it to him in a plain bag and not charge as much blah blah blah. After tasting the cookie he dad no more to say, as he was busy licking his fingers. They were probably the most delicious cookies I have ever tasted. If you're in the area please try them read more

We were in Williamsburg for the day & we were super excited to try this place out. The decor & vibes are awesome. We got a half dozen for $22 (I thought that was reasonable). My top two favorite were the oatmeal & cinnamon crunch. However, all of the cookies were great. Our kids inhaled them all, Lol. We will definitely come back. read more

Yummy cookies! First time here and the lady behind the counter asked if it was our first time here and then explained about the menu as well as how the cookies change each Friday for the week. We decided to get the four pack to sample a few of what they had to offer. We got the peanut butter chocolate, Oreo stuffed chocolate chip, Cookie Monster and the chocolate chip. They were good and will return to try some of their other flavors another week! read more

This black owned business opened its store front over a year ago by the young entrepreneur, Chris Knight who was still in high school at the time. The cookies are made fresh everyday and when ordered, are served hot and ready to devour. I ordered the 12 cookie box so I could try a little bit of everything. The standouts for me were the Lemon Cupcake and Chocolate Chip Cookies. Don't live in the area? No, worries. Cookie Chris ships nationwide. read more

Spent a fortune ($50 for a half dozen cookies) and literally threw away half the cookies because they were so bad. The chocolate chip cookie was fine, but the rest were terrible and bland. I do not understand how this place stays in business. read more

Definitely not worth the price of the cookies ! Service was ok ish , inside of the place was cute but other than that I won't be back

The lady working the night we went was super nice and shared the history of how Cookie Chris became a shop. The cookies came out fresh and were warm which was amazing. The only thing we didn't like was how doughy the cookies were, it didn't taste like they were cooked correctly and a box of 4 cookies came out to $17 without tax which I think is a little over priced. Overall the shop was set up super cute with little articles about how the shop became a thing. read more

Came in late on a Friday night craving a good dessert and wasn't at all disappointed! We were immediately greeted by the sweet young associate. She was the only one working. She was so kind, asked if we had been to the shop before and explained the menu when we said we had not. We got a four pack of cookies and a scoop of ice cream each. The scoops were heaping and delicious and cookies were given to us warm. They were amazing. This is like a Crumbl cookie but better and always happy to support a small business with an awesome back story. Excited to return! read more

Super cute place, colorful with friendly welcoming staff. They had 6 flavors, we tried banana pudding, rocky road, chocolate chip, cinnamon roll and oatmeal crème. All great flavors, my ONLY suggestion would have been that the cookies all had the same consistency. Some were crunchy and room temperature , (oatmeal and cinnamon roll) while others were warm and softer and that was surprising. Large portions, reasonably priced for the size and variety, even appealing to the eye. Would definitely recommend and revisit simply based off the origin story and having something new. I also love supporting new and small businesses! Great job Chris. read more

I went here because I heard that these cookies were really good. I have a little mixed feelings about the cookies. The edge of the cookies were hard around the edges which I prefer mine to be slightly a little soft. When I first walk in it was nice and bright. The person who rang me up was friendly and made some recommendations. I had ordered the four pack to get a little taste. I had ordered the Cinnabon, Christmas cookie, golden Oreo, and Chocolate chip. It's a cute little place and would be back again. It's roughly $5 a cookie it's cheaper to get a pack. read more

Price point is a little high but I understand the economy is expensive these days. The cookie was good.

The style Of this store was so darn cute and my colors scheme. Adorable! Good job Chris keep shining kiddo read more

Great cookies!! The size was huge and the taste was amazing. The best part, the person working was very friendly. I highly recommend.

RUDE STAFF ! As much as I wanted to enjoy these cookies the staff member with various piercings, light skinned female was very very rude to my family. She had an attitude the whole time which made us feel very un welcomed. She was very unprofessional to the kids (all under age) told them " yes the cookies are real don't touch them" (indicating the cookies on the wall which they pointed at and never touched )with an attitude. I would not recommend for any family with younger kids. Cookies are white and look undercooked. Love the idea of supporting a small businesses but not one that has staff that are rude and unprofessional. This Is the Cookie Chris located in Williamsburg Virginia. read more

I ordered a cookie cake for my son's birthday a few months back. The cakes shown on the website were beautifully decorated and I had heard good things about this place. We waited a few hours for the cake to be made and then my husband went to pick it up. Unfortunately, he was in a rush and didn't check it in the store. When we got home and opened the box the cake looked TERRIBLE. The writing looked like my 5 year old daughter did it and there was a bunch of weird, random globs of frosting thrown around it. It was also cracked in several different places. I try not to be too picky, but we paid a lot of money for a cute birthday cookie. I called Cookie Chris to see what could be done and they were not apologetic at all. They told me they could make a new cake, but we had to bring the old cake back, and that we would have to wait a few hours because there were other cakes ahead of us. That made no sense to me, because if my cake was made right the first time we wouldn't have to have a new one made, but my son really wanted the cake so I agreed. The next cake we picked up was at least in one piece and the writing was much better, but looked nothing like any of the beautiful cakes they have displayed on their website. It tasted fine so I guess there's that. We haven't been back to Cookie Chris since this incident and we warn others not to order a cake from them either, unless they want to be sorely disappointed. Cookie Chris should update the photos on their website to be more realistic of what they are actually selling, and they should also take much better care of their customers. read more

My son and I came for a late night dessert after a soccer tournament. We each had a cookie a la mode; one with mint chocolate cookie and the other had cookies and cream cookie. We also brought six cookies back home to Pennsylvania to try with our family. Check out the stories on how Cookie Chris was started by a 15 year old, while playing high school basketball and maintaining a 4.0 GPA. Now he's in college and his mom is helping running the store late at night. Mrs Knight was a joy to speak to and was beaming with pride when I adored about Chris. read more

Excellent cookies. We had 4 different ones and they were all delicious. Highly recommend.

My husband was in heaven with his cinnamon roll cookie. The interior decorations were super fun and inviting. My only complaint was that although helpful, the employee seemed she didn't really care if we got anything or not. If we lived closer, I am sure my husband would want to go often. He loved reading about and was very impressed by the history of the shop. read more

Bought a 4 pack of cookies for my family and they absolutely love the cookies here. I can't have any so I'm writing this review based off of their opinions. Both of my kids agreed the cookies were better than Crumbl Cookies. The outside is a little crisp (just the right amount) and soft inside. They are not overly sweet. All cookies are served hot with the option to add ice cream. We didn't have any ice cream though. Great price point for the size. Excellent customer service and very nice atmosphere. Small but super cute. Please give this place a try. It won't disappoint! read more
