    I came to pick up my free birthday cookie and was having a horrible day. The guy who packed my cookie immediately started packing several into a box and gave them to me. I lit up!!! He didnt know but i was having a horrible day and had come to get my cookie to cheer myself up. I left smiling so hard haha! Thank you cookie guy! (Ignore the photo i messed them up on the way back on my scooter, they are perfectly good!)

    Their ´full size' cookie lol

    "warm cookies", that's what's written on the door. At $3 a sugar cookie from a cookie place in a low key district of Chicago, what would one expect? An at-least-great big warm cookie, right? Forget it. These are just decent but cold basic cookies that you'd find in any grocery store, sold in average at $5 for a box of 8. And indeed, they pull the cookies out of boxes stored under the counter, out of sight of the customer - of course. A rip-off at all levels (quality and quantity). 2 stars for atmosphere, bc they re open late. But after all, most grocery stores are as well.. Want a great $3 cookie? Just go to Potbelly. Not the best, but much better than these. Some businesses just deserve to fail. Seriously. The positive reviews must be from next door students who refuse to acknowledge their buyer's regret... that's the only explanation. Seriously. #CallOutRipOff

    Cookies are soft and munchy! Staff are accomodating. Place is small for dine in. Road pay parking only

    Although my order was completely not hot or even warm at all, I guess it really was the taste I needed!

    Fresh, warm, delicious cookies! I love that they're open insanely late, they deliver if you have that need, and they have ice cream as an accompaniment if you're into that. Their cookies come in two sizes and they have good variety. I love the peanut butter. Yes they are expensive, but they are better than your average grocery store cookies and as an occasional treat I am definitely a fan!

    Cookies are so good and just the right mix of crunch and soft. You can tell they are baked fresh. Little pricy but worth it for a good cookie.

    What a simply genius idea and what a truly nice attending staff! I stopped in yesterday after dinner for a sweet delight and had never hard of this place before. These cookies are awesome! They also have various ice creams and sell milk as well. They have an excellent concept and I hope they franchise soon. The cookies are warm an are so good. Enjoy!

    First of, I'm not big on chain restaurants only because I feel like their food isn't as good but I can never say that about insomnia cookies! I've been at several locations and I never get disappointed by any of the cookies. My favorite cookie is the S'mores Deluxe. It definitely tastes even better at 2am after a long night. Okkurrt. In all of my years going to insomnia cookies this was my first time trying the cookie sandwich...OMG! It was so good. The cookie was chewy, soft, and warm! You can't beat that. If you're a huge fan of desserts, like me, then I suggest that you try insomnia cookies because they are cheap, they stay open late, and they're consistently tasty. Plus they reliever! That can't be beat.

    Dozen cookies super fresh

    Been going to insomnia for years and visiting this location in Rogers Park was amazing the staff was friendly and very helpful they had the freshest cookies ever and the taste was phenomenal.

    Whenever my wife and I get a cookie craving we Instantly know where we're going: insomnia cookies. This place has been a staple for delicious cookie concoctions for as long as they've been open. Their selections are fairly priced and they have a treat for everyone! Whether it's cookie ice cream sandwiches you want or a big ol delicious cookie cake, you are getting an amazing experience that you'll be returning to in no time.

    I had a super special date at Margie's with my 2 year old, and we had the best time ever. What I…read morelove about Margie's is that it's frozen in time. It's pretty small inside, there are only a few tables. A server comes to your table to place your order, which I feel like never happens at ice cream shops anymore! The menu is huge! There were multiple sections to banana splits, sundaes, and shakes. We decided to go with something simple. My son ordered 2 scoops of cookies n cream ice cream (with sprinkles of course) and I got moose tracks! The ice cream is the real deal. Our server was super sweet, and we were in and out of there in probably 30-45 minutes. We had the best time and will definitely be back this summer.

    We heard that Margie's Candies had some seriously good sundaes, so obviously we had to check the…read moreplace out. (The fact that the joint's been around for over 100 years doesn't hurt either.) It's a small restaurant but we managed to snag a cozy table near the back. We'd already spent most of the day eating, so we decided to share the Atomic Fudge Sundae. It's a fairly enormous concoction. I found it interesting that the hot fudge was served on the side, but it's actually pretty smart because you get control how much (or how little) sauce you get. The ice cream is the highlight. It's creamy and rich, and it's got a really nice flavor, too. The hot fudge was less impressive, but that might be because I had already eaten a Ghirardelli sundae earlier in the day and their hot fudge just can't be beat. The service was super friendly and the atmosphere was kitschy and fun. It's a cool place.

My favorite, along with many others, is the iced banana bread latte. Definitely get it with the vanilla cinnamon cold foam! I've had a variety of pastries here, but particularly love the coffee cakes and cookies. The breakfast sandwich is also really great if it's fresh. The staff for the most part have been very warm and friendly. If it's busy, they are less likely to want to chat about the options and give a recommendation, so come in with a few ideas of what you're looking for if you come on a weekend! The store itself is very cute, with lots of wood and warm colors. There is limited seated outside on a few benches. I recommend walking to the park to enjoy your treats and coffee.

She recommended a Bolognese Danish, a Dubai pistachio brownie, and I added an everything bagel and took it all to go. The Danish was by far my favorite. The pastry was flaky, heavenly, and the filling rich and meaty. This is a pastry worth crossing town for. The brownie was fine, but maybe I'm over the Dubai chocolate trend. It didn't really come together as a unified dessert for me. I wanted the brownie to be richer, fudgier, maybe even a bit sweeter. I would probably get something else next time. The everything bagel was a good texture, but the fennel seeds in the seasoning took me so far away from the classic "everything." They overpowered the other flavors, but the texture was fantastic. Overall, I enjoyed the treats I got, would go back to try some other options. I would probably give this 3.5 stars, but I'm rounding up. Also want to add how much I miss Hot Chocolate!
