Walked into this quaint bakery with a comforting familiar sweet aroma that hit me delightfully in the face, the type of smell that a dessert lover will immediately know she had just walked into a bakery that will not disappoint. My sixth sense was correct! From the large cookies, diverse selection, to the very warm and welcoming lady that helped us....this bakery was worth the detour home. My son picked the M&M double chocolate chip cookie. It has the most loaded M&Ms in a cookie I've ever seen. The texture was crunchy around the edges with a soft semi chewy center that also resembled the consistency between a brownie and a cookie. I picked the toffee chocolate chip and the lemon sugar cookie. The toffee CCC had a crunchy exterior (probably from the melted toffee) which elevated the usual chocolate chip cookie. The lemon sugar cookie was soft in texture which I liked. I wouldn't have minded a little more lemon taste but it was still good. If this bakery were near where I live, I'd go every week! read more

I will tell people near and far (really anyone that will listen!) about how amazing the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie is. Kathy is so friendly anytime I go into the shop, and if not her, I can always trust that there will be a friendly face and kind individual behind the counter. I've been getting these cookies for as long as I can remember & they truly are so consistent and delicious! Great spot, great people, and amazing treats! read more

Today, while I was in the area craving a sweet treat, I stumbled upon Kathy's Famous Cookies--and what a find! As someone who's a self-proclaimed chocolate chip cookie fanatic and a frequent traveler for work, I've visited my fair share of bakeries. But walking into this little slice of heaven was something special. To top it all off, I had the pleasure of meeting Kathy herself! She was so warm and welcoming, and took the time to show me her beautiful creations--each one a true work of art. You can genuinely feel the love she pours into her craft. I picked up a warm M&M cookie (absolutely divine), a classic chocolate chip, and a few cake bombs that were just out of this world. Every bite felt homemade, comforting, and made with heart. Thank you, Kathy, for making my first visit so memorable. I sincerely hope I find myself back in the area--whether for work or fun--because I'll be sure to stop by for another unforgettable sweet treat. Cheers! read more

Great customer service, superb treats and I didn't break my little piggy bank either!!! Thank you!!! read more

Kathy's Cookies is one of the best bakeries located in Milford, CT and along the shoreline. I love they have gluten free options and are available in most Big Y supermarkets. I went to their Milford storefront this weekend since I had to see their adorable dessert options. I was asked if I needed help right away. They always have kind and helpful staff. I asked about ingredients in their cake truffles and they told me they only have buttercream, which was incredibly helpful for a loved one I know with food sensitivities. The bakery is clean, organized and every customer complimented how heavenly it smelled as you walked in. I got the Easter Bunny cookie pictured and 2 cake truffles-- one lemon and one Funfetti. The cake truffles are rich, moist and just the right size to satisfy a craving for cake in a bite-size dessert. 5 stars. read more

I recently ordered from Kathy's via Uber Eats and while I can't speak to the service or atmosphere, the cookies are delicious! I ordered several different kinds to try such as chocolate chip, double chocolate chip, cinnamon sugar and oatmeal chocolate chip. When I opened the box I couldn't believe how big they were! Definitely big enough to share, possibly with more than one other person.So far I've only tried the cinnamon sugar and it was delicious!!! I can't wait to visit the store front to see the store as well as try more goodies! read more

This is seriously the cutest bakery in Milford! I came here to get some sweets for my husband's birthday. The lady at the counter was nice enough to wrap the sweets up and put a bow on the bag at no extra charge. Each time I come here, the cookies and pastries are freshly made. The cookies are irresistible! I ordered a double chocolate chip cookie with m&m's. It was as if I was taking a bite out of heaven itself. read more

Simply the best cookies around, Kathy's Cookies does an incredible job. My husband and I have ordered platters for a number of occasions and they really make everyone's day.

Deciding what to get is the hardest part but you'll never walk out of here empty handed. Enjoy!!! read more

Kathy's Famous Cookies - Heavenly cookie tray!!!! - Bakeries Near Me - Milford, Connecticut

This place is definitely outta boundzzz. This review is another, can't wait until I get home, crumbs all over my pants still, kind of review. This woman Kathy is the sweetest kindest person as I see some have said already from a few of the reviews I've quickly read through. As you can see by my pics I did sample a plethora of their items. Cookies (large & small) of course, duh.... Scones assortment and biscotti assortment. These cookies, as I was previously told by close friends and The woman I was talking to in line (a healthcare worker) (shout out to our healthcare workers) Are even better, tastier and larger than insomnia cookies over in New Haven. These cookies are slightly crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. I don't know how Kathy does it. Trade secret she said. Anytime I've ever had cookies its been either all crispy or all chewy and soft. One or the other. This is a serious tradecraft secret that Kathy has. She is a darling. Then onto the bag of mini chocolate chip cookies. OMG. Yes they are just as wonderful as the large ones. But these are there ones that are crispy all the way through. Absolutely amazing and just as delicious. These cookies are absolutely ridiculous. They're so good. Did I tell you how good they are? I also tried the soft biscotti. It was an experiment of Kathy's. Has a hint of raspberry sauce drizzled into the icing on top. Another winner. This woman is a true artist in the whole sense of the word. She truly is. Kathy is producing art on a daily basis for all if us to see and partake in. Phenomenal job Kathy. My hats off to you Keep up the tremendous job you're doing because you're doing it amazingly well. I know you don't need me to tell you but, you, your product and your establishment are totally on point. This is how it's done people. Great product, Great hospitality, Very clean environment Kindness & sincerity to boot. Looking forward to MANY many more additional visits to your piece of heaven in Milford Connecticut. P.S. She wholesales to some area grocery stores. So for those of you who don't live close or not willing to drive you have options. Who knows, If you call and contact her she might be willing to send them to different parts of the country. You'll have to call and ask her about that. I don't know that for sure. Please contact her. Because if you do and she does mail them to you it'll be well worth it. That I can tell you all for sure. And you can take that to the bank. read more

Had Kathy's desserts at a bridal shower some time ago. Cupcakes were just scrumptious and we had a large variety to choose from.

I'd heard of Kathy's and seen her products in other local cafes and stores but I had never been inside her shop. As soon as we walked in, you smelled the delicious aroma of freshly baked cookies. We got some packaged cookies and Kathy herself brought us some chocolate chip cookies that had just came out of the oven. They were crispy, crunchy, and chewy. I will definitely be back for more cookies and to try other things. read more

Very cozy bakery with a wide assortment of massive treats. I got a M&M cookie and a salted caramel biscotti and they were both delicious. I was also incredibly stuffed after It is a small place, and the woman who owns the place is very friendly and cooks everything in the back, but that means that there is not a ton of space to sit. They have generic coffee as well 9 read more

If you want delicious gluten-free cupcakes and cookies in Mlford.. this is the place to get them! I bought a package of gluten free, chocolate dipped oatmeal cookies. All I can say is OMG! They were crisp and not too sweet. The chocolate was melt in your mouth delicious! I spoke with Kathy about other options as there was just a small selection in the store. She was very warm and accommodating and said that she would make me whatever cookies or cupcakes I wanted with some notice. The only suggestion I would make is to sell them in Adams (our local IGA) along with the regular cookie and biscotti offerings! read more

My daughter used Door Dash to send goodies to her dad for his birthday (she's in Philly, we are here in CT.) What he got was NOT what she ordered. He got this box of huge, gloppy cookies, mostly sugar cookies (the cheapest kind encrusted in cheap, multi colored sugar.) She sent us a picture of her order & she had carefully chosen a variety of baked goods - all premium products. What came in the box were a random selection of giant cookies and several of them were falling apart. Someone at Kathy's bakery filled this order and ripped my daughter off. read more

Great baked goods. They have many flavors and combinations of cupcakes and frostings. Everything is fresh. Please is clean and owner/staff are attentive and helpful. read more

Called kathys cookies to ask about gf options and they were sweet enough to run down the menu with me as well as list prices on the phone. They even held the last box of gf biscottis for me. They have several gluten free options and said they also have a vegan option as well. I will def be back. Great treats and great service. read more

Wow, they have a huge selection. I am really impressed by the friendly staff and quality of their sweets. Affordable too! The biscottis are huge and so good! Anyone who said they don't like biscotti should try these. The cookies are great too! I haven't tried the cupcakes yet but they look very good, they will literally explain every flavor to you if you want, so don't feel bad asking. I also got a lime bar which needed a little more lime but was otherwise very yummy. The brownies are top notch. I can't wait to come back and try more, dangerous to have this place so close to home. I do believe they have coffee too which would go great with your biscotti. There must have been 10+ varieties of biscotti. I would def come here to get a bunch of sweets for a party or event. read more

These cookies, biscotties, etc are amazing! Best bakery cookie I have ever had- especially the chocolate dipped. Milford is a little drive so I am so happy to see them in Big Y's etc. This will be the best non homemade (and better than most homemade) cookie you will ever had- they do a great job with trays too! read more

Anyone who has eaten gluten-free for any amount of time knows it can be really hit or miss. There is a good chance a baked item that looks lovely will taste like sand, have the density of a brick or have little taste at all. My husband found Kathy's recently, he said they were very helpful in the store with selecting items for me to try. He ended up bringing home a four pack of cake truffles and two enormous chocolate chip biscotti drizzled in chocolate. The cake truffles, if I didn't know they were GF I would assume they were just a delectable treat. Moist on the inside with wonderful flavor, one with a cup of coffee...amazing. The biscotti, enormous, big enough to share and delicious enough that you could share this with someone not eating GF and they would thoroughly enjoy it. Prices are also reasonable especially considering the sizes, you definitely get your money's worth here. He also brought home cookies for the kids, literally the size of your face and chocked full of flavor. They do not skimp on anything here. Kathy was there and said that she also makes GF pumpkin bread seasonally and took our number so she could call us when it's ready. Can't wait to try it! read more

DELICIOUS!! The cupcakes, the biscotti, the cookies- all divine! Also, the folks there are so friendly. Excellent service!

Absolutely delicious! Have been getting treats from this shop even before they landed in their current location. Business has grown because they offer great stuff! I recently gave a cookie tray as an Easter gift. Beautiful and reasonable price. So happy to see a lot of hard work paying off. Go there !! read more

Disappointed as a pistachio lover! Got a $5 "pistachio cannoli" filled cupcake that overwhelmingly just tasted like amaretto, which I hate. Not even a hint of pistachio! Thought I was going crazy until my mother tried and said the same thing, but I should've known from its neon green color. Friendly staff but don't waste your money on this if you're looking for actual pistachio flavor. read more

When I want to satisfy my sweet tooth, my first choice is Kathy's Cookies. Great variety of baked goods but I always go for cookies. Reading the ingredients, they are a lot more nutritional than many other choices. Price is reasonable, staff is very friendly, everything is fresh and if you want a "day old cookie", which I sometimes do, they are a bargain. I'll sit in the parking lot, read my newspaper and enjoy a feast before going on to my next activity for the day. Kathy's Cookies is also a great place to order large platters of cookies for that special occasion. read more

Cookies and cupcakes are great Gluten free choices are great Nice staff Reasonable prices read more

I have coming here for the past 2 months. I have yet been disappointed. I love cookies. So when I go there, it's for that purpose. My wife loves the scones. They do have an assortment of pastries, desserts and always fresh. The service is great as well. The owner and the associates are always welcoming. A couple times I wanted more cookies than usual, I just called in advance and by the time that I arrived, the cookies were ready for my picking. I noticed that they also make custom cakes so if you are planning to have a celebration/gathering, give them a try. I am sure that their cakes are delicious- everything else is. read more

I have been here a few times now, the second you walk into the place it smells like heaven and you're treated with a smile and asked if you need help. The Cupcakes and cookies are amazing and are reasonably priced. This has to be my new favorite bakery, and I can't say enough about the workers they're always helpful. I recommend the chocolate dipped cookies, they're the best one's I've ever had. Always a huge fan of the oatmeal raisin soft cookie. read more

We love this place. Great cookies, cupcakes, biscotti, brownies, and even dog treats. The biscotti are huge, as are the cookies. We get a tray of snacks each time we go to family gatherings in NY, and they always request that we bring treats from Kathy's. On top of great food, Kathy and the employees are always so nice. Highly recommend! read more

Open the door and you are in delectable bakery Heaven. The aroma reminded me of going to Nana's on Sunday, where she had whipped us up a wonderful surprise. Purchased lemon, coconut papaya and almond joy biscotti.....the full size are soooo large they MUST be shared!! My hubby and I split the lemon one first. DELICIOUS!! Lemon flavoring was perfect. Nice crunch to the biscotti. The frosting was sweet but a great balance to the biscuit. Holds up incredibly well when dipped in coffee!!! Also purchased inhuman size cookies!! We will be cutting those into quarters!!!! So glad my Saturday ride with hubby led me to Kathy's (friend gave me sample. and our adventure to find and conquer was on). MOST DEFINITELY will be back!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND visiting and purchasing a delectable!! Another gem found in Milford!! Don't miss out !!! Can't wait to try our next flavor tomorrow..... Almond joy! read more

I highly recommend Kathy's cookies. I stopped in yesterday as I was in the area and was curious as to what they offered. Well, I left not disappointed with a beautifully tied shopping bag in hand. I purchased the almond scone, that I must tell you was bigger than my hand, moist, with a sugar drizzle. Also in my bag were three bags of crispy cookies. Toffee chip, chocolate chip, and a coconut flavor, also amazing. If you in the area and even if your not, make that extra stop for some delicious confections. read more

Kathy's Famous Cookies - Almond scone - Bakeries Near Me - Milford, Connecticut

Love the cupcakes, so many great flavors including pistachio. The scones and cookies are so fresh and enormous.

Hmmm... perhaps it's because I did not eat the day old cookie right away but it was dry! It's my fault though for leaving them more than a few days. However the maple nut scone was 5/5 mwah. Have to reheat but perfect w a glass of milk. And I don't know if it was Kathy at the register but whoever it was, was wonderful, patient and helpful to explain all the desserts! read more
