    I'm a Baltimore native who has been living in Atlanta for the past 9 years. I've traveled many places and can say I have never had a snickerdoodle cookie anywhere that taste as good as the Great Cookie. During every trip home I have to make a special visit to the great cookie before heading back to the airport. They have a variety of flavors like your traditional chocolate chip cookies, but I always get the snickerdoodle. I've been coming here since I was a child and the cookies are consistently good, kind of chewy yet firm. You buy the cookies here by the pound. I purchased a half pound of cookies and my total was $9 which is definitely on the pricey side especially for being a small spot in the mall but I don't mind paying for perfection. The customer service is always good . If you love cookies you will love the Great Cookie.

    Pretty nice cookie shop in security mall. It's not in the food court but pretty easy to find if you keep going down. They charge you per ounce I believe. I got 4 cookies. A big chocolate chip one, double peanut butter, chocolate fudge cookie and a snickerdoodle cookie. The chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies were the big ones while the other two were small. I would avoid the small ones because they were crunchy and tasted a little stale. The big cookies were soft and sweet. Nice place in the mall to satisfy your sweet tooth cravings!

    Man-O-Man, their cookies are still THE BEST. They are ultra soft sugary discs of goodness. They charge you by weight and the price is high, but I have NEVER been disappointed. I always get bucket of the Snickerdoodles ($20).

    This is a small place. There was a single table if you wanted to eat in. They have a menu of hot…read morefood but are primarily in the business of selling baked goods with Indian flavors. I got a sampler of their cake slices. They were remarkably spongy and moist. The flavors varied, but overall went over well. I particularly enjoyed the mango. I was hoping to see samosas laid out beside the cakes and was a bit puzzled that I didn't. Some of their hot food specialties were interesting but I had other plans.

    Cake Wala has become our go-to for party cakes, at the repeated request of friends.

In Nov 2025, we had the Black Forest, which they always decorate for us with a little message for a grown-up's birthday! In Dec, we asked for a custom decoration for a 2-year-old's birthday, which they happily decorated with sprinkles and colorful icing :-) The birthday-child couldn't resist a swipe at the icing :-) We a picture of a cup of tea in their window. They make hot aromatic milky sweet spiced Masala chai black tea to-order. And they make thin tender crumbly short-bread-like jeera cumin cookies, so delightfully flavored. Perfect for our drive to the party! We're see they also have a broader food menu including samosas, chaat, parottas, and more, and handhelds, including wraps, sandwiches, and even burgers! Chicken burgers, mutton burgers, Impossible and other veggie burgers! I hope to try those soon!

    I not only recommend Cozy Café, I shout from the rooftops to go here now!…read more Whenever I have company or family coming into town, old Ellicott and Cozy Café specifically are my first thoughts. One time my partner was standing outside with one of our doggos and I was inside ordering us coffee/breakfast. The owner came up to me and told me that we can bring our dog in. I couldn't figure out how he even knew that they were my people or how he saw them because they weren't standing near windows or doors. But that just shows how much they pay attention to their customers. When I found out that they had coffee flights after I already had been going there for months, I about about lost it. You can choose iced or hot and they come with a variety of flavors. They even top it off with different pastries! Those pastries go with the flavors. I honestly cannot say enough good things about Cozy Café. This is a staple in my house and it should be a staple in yours!

    I came here for a very Instagrammable coffee flight and was not disappointed. We ordered a simple…read morecorned beef sandwich and I got the iced coffees flight. So the flight was for different ice lattes paired with a pastry, which was a croissant a Blondie brownie, a macaroon and lastly.strawberry cake for $25. It took a while for the flight to be prepared because I think they're a little bit shortstaffed on a Monday morning, but they had a lot of comfortable places to sit and wait. The corn beef sandwich came out good and I mentioned it was simple because it's literally just corn beef with some white bread and some cheese, but it was actually pretty tasty for breakfast. The coffee flight came out and it's on a large paddle and it looked really delicious. I have to say the regular flavored lattes and the croissant weren't my favorite choices, but as I started moving down the paddleboard towards flavored lattes and the Blondi bar, it was pretty good. My favorite latte was the butter beer and my favorite pastry actually turned out to be the Blondie brownie bar. The inside has enough seating for about 50 people and it's really cutely decorated. I highly recommend stopping in if you're in the mood for a coffee after a day of shopping in Ellicott city.
