Rawr!!! Lion Cub's Cookies has been a welcome addition to the 212 (Grandview Heights to everyone else...)! Their specialty cookie creations are delicious and unique. Follow them online using one of the several popular social media platforms and you will learn about new and special limited time creations. It is not unknown to me to dart out of the house when I hear about something special they are cooking up, before they run out. I've actually had people tell me about particular cookies and made a late night grab & delivery to their apartment so we can both enjoy their creations! Yes, it's really THAT GOOD! Such a guilty pleasure - Lion Cub's is located on the main section of Grandview Avenue with parking nearby, and is a must visit if your in the area! read more

Lion Cub's Cookies is my favorite place to get cookies in all of Columbus! Their cookies are the absolute BEST! The cookies are always incredibly fresh, warmed, and perfectly cooked! The classic chocolate chip is my go to staple; it's exactly what you crave when you're looking for a classic cookie! My favorite special cookie is the puppy chow; it's seriously out of this world! Everything they have is seriously unreal & if you haven't tried them out yet, you need to! read more

Loin Cub Cookies in Grandview: The Sweet Tooth Savior You Didn't Know You Needed Take the Trip, your Next Adventure is waiting. Let me put it simply: Loin Cub Cookies in Grandview absolutely crushes Crumbl. And yes, I said it out loud with my whole chest. This tiny cookie haven may not have the nationwide hype machine that Crumbl has, but what it does have is heart, creativity, and the most delightfully addictive cookie flavors I've tasted in a long time. Loin Cub doesn't just make cookies--they make edible moods. First off, the Cub Cookies are genius. Think perfectly portioned, snack-sized bursts of joy. They're not gigantic sugar bombs that leave you in a coma--you can grab one (or five) and still feel like a functioning human. Perfect for that mid-day sweet craving or a little dessert after lunch without needing a nap immediately after. Now let's talk flavors. Wild. Inventive. Dangerous. We're talking things like: * Brown Butter Fruity Pebbles - nostalgia and sophistication in one bite * Lemon Poppyseed Blueberry - like a muffin and a cookie had a baby * Cinnamon Toast Crunch Explosion - crunchy, gooey, and gone in sixty seconds The menu rotates often, which just adds to the obsession. I find myself checking their Instagram like a cookie stalker to see what new madness they've cooked up. And somehow, every flavor hits. No filler flavors. No cookie left behind. Crumbl? Sorry, but their cookies sometimes feel like more style than substance. Half the time they're just warm sugar blobs with frosting that looks better than it tastes. But Loin Cub? They're artists. Cookie sculptors. Mad scientists of the sweet tooth world. Plus, the vibe in the shop is friendly, local, and laid-back--exactly the kind of place you want to support. So if you're in Grandview and haven't stopped by Loin Cub Cookies yet, what are you doing with your life? This isn't just a cookie shop--it's a lifestyle choice. Take the trip. Your sweet tooth will thank you. read more

I like that they are local, their pricing, and the size of the cookies! My favorite is the peanut butter chocolate! So good (and addictive)! Chocolate chip is a runner up. They release new flavors all the time and if you sign up for their rewards program, they have some perks time to time along with announcing the new flavors there first. I love supporting local first, so my go to for a cookie shop has been them. read more

We've been to lion cub cookies twice and they are GOOD!! Serial on outside but super gooey in the middle. The cinnamon roll is the absolute best and I would eat ten of them. The service is quick and easy the only complaint I have is that it cost over $10 for three cookies so it definitely a sweet treat. read more

Stopped today while in the area to pick up a couple of the best chocolate chip cookies ever in my opinion! These cookies are always fresh baked and hot. Service is always friendly and fast. The inside always smells like grandma's kitchen. Mouth watering to say the least. I unfortunately don't have a picture to post because I ate the cookie immediately. Run to this bakery, you won't be disappointed! The owner is a super nice guy and he is always open to hear your thoughts an ideas. I spoke to him today for about 15 minutes. Nice guy and he truly wants to make and offer the best product! read more

Amazing cookies. They have a great rotating selection and me and my dad loved them. Cookie Monster would too. The staff are friendly and the wall shows you how they make it within two hours for freshness. read more

Updating this review to share that Lion Cub's Cookie's is still owning the cookie game in Columbus. There may be some chain cookie spots in the neighborhood, but why support them when Lion Cub's reigns supreme? I've been to the store in Grandview a few times but recently I ordered delivery for the first time. I was a little worried that they would get cold during the transfer, but that worry was silly. My cookies arrived about 40 minutes later and they were STILL WARM. I was shocked. They came in a mini pizza-style box with great branding and even a seal to confirm that they hadn't been opened during the drop off. This time around I got their classic chocolate chip, their pumpkin option, a chocolate Reeces, and a cinnamon one with white chocolate (which was the star of the show). These cookies are huge so plan to share, even if only getting four like I did. While they are pricy ($20 for 4 large cookies), they're worth it in my honest opinion. If you haven't tried these, you got to. There's a reason why they have expanded to additional locations read more

I ordered 30 dozen cookies for an event, and I had them delivered. They were fresh and soft, super tasty - a tad too sweet for my taste, and the flavor could've been more but generally speaking, really good cookies all around! Well-priced too compared to other cookie places in the city which is why I chose them for catering. read more

I actually wouldn't recommend going here because all you will think about is when is the next time you are going back. This place is unreal. Great service, great flavors, and GREAT cookies! I seriously mean the flavors are unreal!!! Not to mention they are just a company that is truly about their community. As much as I wish my favorite flavors were always available, I also love the anticipation to know if it's going to be the weekly rotation! These people know what they are doing and know how to have fun with it. That being said, lil Debbie week and Girl Scout cookie weeks need to have a come back regularly!!! read more

I stopped in to Lion Cub's with some friends after dinner on Friday night. The smell of fresh cookies hits you as soon as the door opens and the cookies themselves are on display for you to see. The staff were friendly, it was most of the group's first time (including me). I ended up choosing a Puppy Chow cookie to go. It was delicious! And still warm about 10 minutes later when I started trying it. read more

My husband and I stopped at Lion Cub Cookies while visiting the Columbus area, and oh my goodness! The chocolate chip and snickerdoodle cookies were absolutely heavenly and perfectly sweet without being over the top. The person who helped us had welcoming energy and everyone was very nice. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town! I wish they had a Michigan location! read more

Absolutely delicious!!!! These cookies were so dense and full of flavor, without being too sweet or too much. They are served totally fresh and sooo tasty! They don't have a large selection of cookies, but they are all yummy! We got the strawberry shortcake and totally blown away!! The cookie was hard in the outside, but googey on the inside, and it had a whipped cream frosting so it wasn't too sweet or overpowering. The taste was amazingggg, we were drooling over this cookie. Our service was quick and the lady at the counter was so sweet. The entire shop just smelled so yummy! We definitely will be back to try more!! read more

Reviews have been amazing for these cookies and I have had these before at a Yelp YES function and remember liking them... so I stopped in thinking to try a variety that had not had before. Warning this isn't the glowing review of most: wasn't super impressed with the shop. The clerk was friendly but talked too much and the shop felt.... Unfinished. Messy. Maybe that affected me, because after I ordered two cookies and I just wasn't blown away. These cookies are huge and have a lot of rise. The cookie I bit into (after I drove away) wasn't fully baked. It was Oreo stuffed but I couldn't really make out any taste (and no, I don't have or have had covid!). The other cookie just was also lacking any buttery taste. A chocolate chip cookie should have a slight taste of butter, and not overwhelmingly taste like playdoughish flour. My takeaway: It's a cookie that is truly novel and hyped up. Good the first time you have them but afterwards.... They are non spectacular. Give me a gold old-fashioned (flatter) toll house cookie that grandma bakes any day over these. Heck the entire batch would almost cost less too, Lions Cub is expensive. Two cookies and a small dipping container of butter cream cost me 10 +bucks. That is too expensive. read more

The absolute best cookies I've ever had. Period. I've had a myriad of flavors from these nice folks and I can tell you that my favorite one thus far, has been... ALL OF THEM!! And again, we(lovely Mrs came along for the drive) drove three hours to pick up six for my birthday dinner. The folks running those store are so nice. Maddox helped me today and he was just so helpful and understanding as I asked him so many questions. Are the cookies; delicious? worth the drive? worth supporting local folks? Ummmm, absolutely. Go check out their website, join their club and get notifications on flavors of the week and let them know your birthday and they'll send you a coupon for a cookie when that comes up. Support local. :) read more

Lion Cubs has become a Columbus staple and for good reason! Locally owned and great products. Its a small store front that's essentially a bakery with an order counter. Staff has always been friendly and their cookies are very fresh. I'm a sucker for their chocolate chip but will say the rotating flavors have been a bit hit and miss for me. They make large cookies that are crisp on the outside and gooey in the middle (secret is they're slightly underbaked, think medium rare cookie). I think they're a great treat now and then but can be seen as a bit costly for a cookie. read more

These cookies have to be my favorite of all time! They are so good and definitely worth every penny. My favorite used to be the Chocolate Chip until recently when tried the Puppy Chow. The chocolate chip however is warm vanilla base with melty semi-sweet chocolate chips. Thanks to the advise of Hunter, I was able to try the Puppy Chow and my new favorite has warm peanut butter base packed with gooey semi-sweet chocolate chips, topped with a creamy vanilla frosting, crunchy puppy chow and a sprinkle of sweet powdered sugar. I think I am in love with it. It's so good and I cannot wait to get another. I went on their website while making this review and there are so many cookies I want to try that I might need to make an order. Only thing is that during Covid they used to deliver these cookies but now don't. I wish I could get them brought to my door again read more

This is a great business model and the store is staffed by really friendly people. You can order cookie packs in various sizes online (1,4,6, etc) and they have a rotating weekly menu of flavors. I suggest scheduling cookie pickup for an off hour, as parking is really tough on Grandview Ave. As others have said, they have perfected the crispy outside and soft, gooey inside cookie. For my personal taste they were way too sweet, but I get what people love about them. I also thought all of the cookie flavors kind of tasted the same, except for the incredible chocolate peanut butter flavor. Tip: if you order online, you don't have to wait in line at the counter, just go straight to the register for pick up. read more

Cute little bakery in Grandview! I was greeted kindly and it smelled soooo good. The A/C was freezer-cold and the space itself was super clean and simple in a nice way. I treated myself to two cookies to go - both chocolate chip ($4 each) and, though each was a generous sharing size, it was too sweet for me. The other flavors on rotation that day/week weren't flavors I'd try because i was afraid they would be too sweet, too. Honestly a bit of a let-down because I really had hoped to love and support more often. No shade on the sugary cookie lovers, of course! These just aren't my favorite. Also, I felt it was a bit of a missed opportunity with some branding... the cookie bakery bags and the kraft paper to-go bags didn't have any branding on them. Even a stamp would be good for the socials because the shop and logo are so cute! read more

The wife heard about other friends raving about this place so we packed up the family for a small road trip to lion Cub Cookies. All I can say is WOW! Small store from with open concept. We were greeted with smiles and welcomes. They have a small fresh cookie selection but they are good size and well stuffed inside. The girls got the triple chocolate cookie. They are messy but the chocolate in the center was oozing out. I got Banana Cookie, it had a wonderful flavor that was sweet but refreshing. Highly recommend! We got lucky with parking off the side of the street but they do have additional parking in the back. read more

I have been dying to try Lion Cubs Cookies for quite some time. Their IG posts always make my mouth water. So I was super excited to see they were opening a store front in Grandview! This past weekend the special cookie was Frosted Animal Cracker, which I always loveddd as a kid (and still do, let's be honest). So it was the perfect time to make the trip! We got 4 cookies: chocolate chip, oatmeal chocolate chip, frosted animal cracker and cookies n cream. And OMG do they live up to the hype!! These cookies are huge and perfectly cooked. Gooey and soft and just a fantastic cookie all around. We loved all the flavors. They are a little on the pricy side, but definitely worth it. I think we got 4 cookies for $14. Their store is relatively small with a few seats in the windows if you choose to eat there. But we were able to pop in, order right away and be on our way! They had 5 cookies available to choose from when we were there. I think they may keep a few staples and then swap out a speciality cookie each week or so. I will absolutely be back for more!! read more

I'm so glad these amazing cookies finally have a storefront I can swing by! My first lion club cookie was when they did the banana pudding cookies for hot chicken take over, and wow. Just, wow. Unfortunately being organized enough to remember to order cookies online wasn't happening so I have been very impatiently waiting for the Grandview location to open. These cookies are HUGE and they are AMAZING. In fact, they're big enough that you won't mind letting your kids try the flavor you picked out. The menu changes weekly so that makes it easy to justify going every weekend. So far the puppy chow has been my favorite but I'm hoping to see the banana pudding make a come back. I just love a business that has one thing they've perfected, there's no guess work here. They have fantastic cookies, and they also some beverages to wash those cookies down with. I cannot recommend these cookies enough, we come almost weekly at this point. read more

I was in Grandview and thought I would stop in to pick up some cookies; I've had them from the pop up at North Market a year or so ago. I found street parking and walked a block and a half to the shop. I was greeted right away and chose a box of 4. Iced Cinnamon (2), Choc Chip (1) and Cookies & Cream (1). Super easy checkout on their tablet system. So delicious. This is a place I will head back to when in Grandview! read more

Best cookies in Columbus by far. The service is always great and workers are amazing.

The cookie crazy in Columbus is growing and although the other one(I won't mention is bigger it isn't better, in my opinion) I was introduced to loin's cub cookies by my wife who received a gift card from one of her students. We tried them and wow, we were hooked! Tonight we met friends in grandview for a early birthday dinner and decided to hit up loin's cub for dessert. I got the new French toast cookie for syrup taste in the shortbread cookie topped with powder sugar and maple frosting it was really good, my wife got the chocolate chip cookie that is offered daily. If you sign up for there online club you get a free cookie when you join and a free cookie for your birthday. The cookies change weekly so your favorite could be offered soon! You should definitely check them out soon! read more

Lion cubs cookies is an absolute must when in Columbus! They blow other chain cookie stores out of the water.

We loved the red velvet flavor read more

I came to Lion Cub's for my first time over the weekend (I know..do not kill me) actually illegal I bet!! The parking is never fun in that Grandview area, but ALWAYS worth it! I love this OG location. It smelled a bit funky inside. Although I trust the process, I trust the cookies. The cookies are better than life itself. I got a regular 4 pack of the king sized cookies..because that is still 1 serving size, right?! HEHE, I got the OG chocolate chip, strawberry cookies n cream, dirt cake and black raspberry chip. Let me tell y'all, exactly how I like my cookies. It only took 28 years for someone to figure it out. Crispy on the outside..ooey gooey in the inside..melt in your mouth style. I will be back. The cookies aren't too amazing even after a couple days so try to eat them fresh or within a day. They rotate flavors weekly. I paid $16.00 so somewhat pricey..but you know what you are getting with this place. They also have an awesome rewards system. The staff was so kind. Keep up the great work!! Small but mighty store. No place to really eat inside so be prepared to take home! read more

Let me start by saying Lion Cub Cookies are the best tasting cookies in Columbus...with that said, I cannot believe that have done away with the large cookies. That is the whole reason we have been so faithful to Lion Cub Cookies. We stopped to pick up some cookies last week (6/11) because we have friends coming into town and found out they only offer these tiny little cookies...NOT GOOD! We will think twice about going back unless they bring back the large cookies. read more

Hands down the best cookies I've ever had. Puts Crumbl to shame. Each flavor tastes exactly like it says it's going to, but even better than you could have imagined. A few personal favorites are the peanut butter and jelly, blueberry pancake, and the dunkaroo. Worth every penny and love supporting local. Would go here every week if I could! read more

These cookies are LEGGGGGGIIIIIIIIITTTTTT! Stopped here by accident because I needed some treats for a coworkers bday and the donut place I stopped at didn't have anything ready to-go yet for the morning. I quickly searched the nearest local desert/pasty place and this was one of the options. I figured the good reviews can't make it a bad choice, and it wasn't too far distance-wise... so ... took a couple turns, and VOILA! I had treats for the birthday! My first impression of this tiny yet quaint cookie bakery was that their GI-NORMEOUS and well-crafted-looking cookies are not only made with love but are going to be a HIT! I personally refrained from consumption so that my staff could enjoy as much as they wanted, and maybe a little bit for my pant-size's sake lol, but DID receive multiple accounts of feedback that they were DELLLLicccccioussssssss. I can't remember the exact name of which chocolate type of cookie it was, but I thinkkkkk it was devil's food, or double chocolate or something of the sort, but that chocolate one got some REALLLLLL praise. So that definitely stuck in my mind for future extra special staff recognition treats! :P I lOOOOOOOOVe that they have a weekly menu! That extra special touch makes it SUPER intriguing and a real treat to venture back! To cut to the chase, DEF A+ here! read more

For the longest time I wondered what this business was becasue it always seemed closed, maybe that was because they were still getting it ready to open. Then I started seeing Facebook friends put up posts about Lion Cubs Cookies. Their pictures would show lines out the door and some decent looking cookies. When I drove by a few times I saw the line out the door as well. One day, I finally had time to stop and check it out for myself. Thankfully there was no long lines when I went. We were able to go right in and see for ourselves what all the fuss it about. The fuss is worth it! They offerered 4 diffferent cookies flavors the day we were in. They offer single servings or by the box. I think their prices are a bit steep, but the cookies are DELICIOUS. I tried a bite and it was so fresh and warm. The flavors were amazing. I bought a cookies and cream, and a chocolate peanut butter chip. I had the chocolate one the next day, and even though it was no longer warm, the cookie was outstanding! It was packed with peanut butter chips and had a lot of flavor. This little cookie shop is definitely a must stop by and treat yo' self kind of place if you are in the Grandview area. Make sure to save room for dessert! read more

I finally got to try one of the most popular cookies in town - Lion Cubs! They have weekly rotating flavors. For this week, they had chocolate chips, cookie & cream, cosmic cookie, PB&J, and in-store purchase only Dunk-a-Lions. I placed an order for alter pick up first, and then when I got to the store I realized they actually had plenty of cookies. The team was actively baking more as well. The cookies were fresh and warm when I got it. They were huge and I liked the texture. They were crispy on the outside but soft inside. The dunk-a-lions one was too sweet for me especially eating with the icing together. My favorite one was the cosmic cookie. It was not overly sweet. Looking forward to other rotating flavors and I will go back to try more! read more
