    Assorted Package: snickerdoodle , cookies and cream, chocolate chip
    La Juania M.

    If you want to grab cookies fast this is the place for you. They have a variety of cookies they have already fresh that you don't have to wait for baking. The only thing you have to get at least a pack of 3/6... no singles. The guy that was helping us was really nice and friendly. He was good at explaining what was each cookie. Overall good experience ... check it out.

    Cookies & Cream, Snickerdoodle, Red Eye

    A Richmond staple! I've been coming ever since they were in the sketchy back alley. My favorites are the cookies & cream and snickerdoodle. As some of the other reviews note, the snickerdoodle is often gooey in the middle. Maybe I'm just used to it but I love it! They also have dairy milks, almond milk, and soy milk available.

    Best DoorDash experience and great cookies! I love using DoorDash to experience food from the area I am in if I can not leave due to no car or something along those lines. We were visiting friends in Richmond and I was hoping to find something for dessert to share with others. I came across Red Eye Cookie. I ordered through DoorDash with no issues. It was delivered promptly and they were still slightly warm so chocolate chips were still soft and ooey gooey! The cookies were a large medium.... Is that even a size? Ha! Well I made it up and I am sure you get what I am saying. But, what is important is that they were scrumptious!!! They are definitely worth it. My favorite was the Oreo one and the peanut butter one... ok the chocolate chip was good too. The red velvet has coffee in it, made it unique for sure. They were packaged well too.

    Chocolate chip, cookies n creame, and snicker doodles.

    I discovered Red Eye Cookie through a quick Yelp search for dessert after having drinks down the street at Barcode. I must say, the cookies here give me life; they're much better than Insomnia. They were so good I had to go here twice during my July 4th weekend trip to Richmond. In addition to traditional cookie flavors like chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, peanut butter, and oatmeal raisin, this place also offers unique flavors like cookies & cream, maple apple walnut, and their namesake red eye (red velvet & espresso flavor.) While all their flavors are bussin', I must say that the cookies n cream were my favorite. For those of you who may not be familiar, you're only allowed to order up to a half dozen when you walk in, and any cookies beyond that you have to wait about 20 minutes for, so take advantage of their online ordering if you want to order more than six. I honestly would've waited for more cookies, but I had to get on the highway to beat that infamous I-64 traffic. Shoutout to the owner, Brayden, who let me get two additional free cookies in addition to the half dozen I bought (one for being posted on their story and another for signing up for their rewards program.) All the friends I was able to share the cookies I bought with down in Hampton Roads loved them as well. I will definetly be doing an order for a dozen to take home the next time I'm up in Richmond.

    Chocolate chip, red eye, cookies and cream and oatmeal

    Stopped by on a whim. The cookies were excellent. My only dislike is peanut butter cookies are my favorite and they had none. I guess they are others favorites too. They were super helpful and friendly. The cookies and cream were just okay but the oatmeal raisin were OUTSTANDING as were the chocolate chip. My daughter ate the red eye and said it was okay. So I give them five stars....love them!

    Hot and ready cookies!!! Chocolate chip, snickerdoodle and Red Eye .... Mmmm. Didn't mean to stop but why not!!

    National shipping order: Gigantic box 4x the size of the cookie box. Surprise, the cookies were all broken.
    April C.

    There are few reviews on their national shipping for cookies, so I will review it - Don't order from them because you won't receive it. I ordered two separate orders going to the same city, but different address. These were gifts however only one order arrived. I have contacted them twice about the other order and they've left all my messages on read. I basically paid $60 for six cookies. Another note, all six cookies were broken upon arrival (pro: they were very soft). However, I bet it's because they shipped the cookies in a shipping container FOUR TIMES the size of the box containing the cookies. [Attached photo for reference]. Pretty unboxing experience? Sure. Sustainable and provides protection for the cookies? No. Review of the cookies that were received, ranked from best to not-so-good [according to my sister]: Chocolate Chip: Her favorite - Has that home-made taste. The only cookie she would repurchase. Cookies & Cream (+$0.48): Interesting mix of toppings within the cookie. Snickerdoodle: Good but bland. White Chocolate Macadamia (+$0.48): Ok. Maple Apple Walnut (V) (+$0.48): The apples are super tasty and don't taste artificial! Maybe too many apples though. Red Eye Cookie: Extremely bitter, but then again she doesn't like red eyes. After purchasing these cookies, you get no visibility on the order or even confirmation that your order has been shipped. I placed the orders Monday night (Sep. 2) and one of the orders was received the same week on Friday night (Sep. 6), so I appreciate receiving that order in such a timely manner! For paying so much, some communication from the company would be nice. Red Eye Cookie Co., please contact me. Thanks!

    Snickerdoodle cookie

    It's 100% worth it!!! So good! It's balanced in terms of flavor. The cinnamon and sugar have a good ratio. It's not too sweet nor too spicy. The texture (I microwaved it after freezing it because I saved it) was fluffy yet chewy- the way I love my cookies whenever I'm craving carbs. The flavor and texture were just overall amazing and the cookie made me satisfied. I didn't feel too full or guilty after eating it but I was happy with my decision. It was enough to satisfy my midnight cravings and screamed high quality.

    Red Eye is an affliction I suffer from when hanging out with boys, especially multiple boys at once, usually on late nights and weekends. But anyway. This business reminds me a lot of Insomnia Cookies, on almost every level, and it basically is a late night cookie spot where they will make you hot fresh gooey cookies. I like it a lot. And it's not as much of a national corporate chain as Insomnia so it has that advantage as well. They are dirt cheap and the service is nice. Right in the middle of the college area, so that's the clientele. They filmed the Nic Cage movie "Red Eye" in here. Or was it "Red Rock West." Does it matter.

The smell of coffee; the beautiful plants up front; the fact that it was way more than a bakery and then there was the holy grail of baked goods. I was in awe for about 5 minutes. How does one go on and even decide they want one item? The establishment was clean; their customer service was great and I even saw some local gems in there for purchase and the cutest patio. Outside there was the coolest vending machine for when you want a treat and may be in a hurry or the bakery is closed. Hands down the coolest thing I've seen in a while. The oatmeal cream pie needs a review on its own. This soft huge cookie is one for the books. With hints of cinnamon and toffee in the cookie and then the best cream cheese butter cream flavored filling. I'll literally never be able to eat a regular oatmeal cream pie again. I'm new to shydigz but they have a customer for life. I'll be there Thursday for the special!

There were a lot of church goers enjoying the business. Proper has a menu in the window to guide customers on choices of savory, or sweet. I wanted one of each. The man at the window was great in providing recommendations. I ordered the steak and cheese as well as the Banoffee. The preparation is already done and the man with assistant moved quickly to complete my order. I enjoyed my treats at their outdoor table and also enjoyed conversation with locals. I started with the steak & cheese which was loaded with meat and cheese. DELICIOUS! Then onto the Banoffee which smelled heavenly of cocoa. Another home run! I love bananas and if you do too this will be enjoyable. So glad I found them open on my visit. There hours are very good, but I have missed them in the Summer before on vacation. Just go, no brainer.

The sweet potato was equally as good but with a much milder flavor. And the cookies....out of this world! The servers were friendly but nothing over the top. They seemed to be a cog in the machine and churning out orders. Overall, a cute little, vegan, spot with really good pastries and coffee. Head caution on the milkshakes if you are not use to vegan milkshakes. While they taste good, at least to me, they are wildly different than an cows milk milkshake.

I love that they also have vegan candy and chocolate as well as a freezer section with take and bake vegan and some gluten free options. They had frozen croissants, biscuits, breakfast sandwiches and more. The safe was super sweet and helpful too when ordering. I loved how homey and charming all the decor was and the cute wooden booths where you can sit and enjoy. The bakery is in Carytown so you are limited to street parking and pay to park parking decks. But we had no issue finding parking on a rainy Saturday morning. I highly recommend you give this bakery a try regardless of if you have food allergies or not!
