12 Stores with the best cookies in Birmingham

I think I found my favorite coffee shop in the area! Bonus points that the latte art I got yesterday was spectacular! I love all the fun sweatshirts and all the books. This place is just adorable and the baristas have been nice every time I go here.

I stopped by the Insomnia Cookies in 5 Points and had a great experience. Christian helped me out and he was awesome—super friendly, quick, and made sure everything was perfect with my order. Definitely recommend stopping by and grabbing some cookies, you won’t be disappointed!

I stopped in to try Cookie Fix this weekend. I ended up just getting a small sweet treat for myself and got a chocolate chip cookie and a sugar cookie. The display of cookies was so nice and perfectly themed for Father's Day tomorrow. The staff were very polite. Most importantly the cookies tasted great! I would def come back to try more in the future!

Wow, I was so happy to finally get to try the butter cake. Originally I tried to get a hold of the non-caramel butter cakes, they had a week or so ago, but couldn’t make it in time. So as soon as this one dropped, I knew I had to stop by. I’m literally obsessed with butter cake IDKY it’s just so good. And just as I had suspected, they did this butter cake right, from the vanilla bean topping to most importantly how they caramelize and crisp the outer shell of the cake. That’s exactly what I’m looking for in a butter cake and it taste like butter, which I love. However, I can’t speak highly about other Crumbl products. Pretty much Every other cookie ive tried has been horrible, including the honey bun cookie, which didn’t taste anything like a honey bun and wasn’t sweet at all. It just tasted like raw Dough. I will look out for any time they have cakes, but I won’t be trying anymore of their cookies. Definitely not worth it. We literally threw it in the trash.

Great place. I tried several of the ice creams they had, all of which were fantastic. I ended up with the blackberry buttered biscuit since it was a seasonal for the summer. The woman working was great. I’m sorry I didn’t catch her name! She was telling me how they’re all homemade and that she is really good at pairing their cookies with the ice cream and that the cookies are underrated. I agree. One scoop and a cookie was $5.75 and I’d gladly have laid $9 for the combo. I’ll definitely be back with my family!

I look for excuses to come. Their breakfast is great; you can buy a recommended plate or buy things a la carte. Ask for a side of jam with your toast. It’s also my go-to place for gifts (think teas, unique homewares, locally made jewelry). Don’t see anything? Buy an olive oil citrus cake and head over to SHOPPE right next door for flowers.

I stumbled upon CDM while visiting a friend due to unfortunate circumstances. What I gem! Its location is perfect, name stood out immediately and the ice cream-cookie dough combination just added the cherries on top! A baby staple and lowkey place that I am sure will become a major chain in the coming years! Can’t wait to own one myself.

Bought two dozen cupcakes for my granddaughters birthday today, DELICIOUS !!! We also bought a brownie and a single serve strawberry shortcake, SOOOOO GOOD !!! Great customer service. .

Love this place. Joyful Food proves that food on the go can be delish and healthy! And gluten free! The chicken salad is fantastic, bento boxes a nice quick snack or lunch. I’ll be coming back for myself and to gift my real estate clients. Another local business that makes Birmingham special! Kathy was so pleasant and helpful.

Best cookies ever! They are not too sweet, just right! The whole family loves when I bring The Sweetest Booth cookies home! Such sweet employees, and impeccably clean store!

Chickpea fritters and steak sandwich were so excellent! Portions are large. It's not cheap but it's worth it. Salad options are extensive. Lots of options for vegetarians. The sides are filling and the service is fast. So glad to have a healthy option in the uab medical complex. (Not that my choice on this rainy day to eat fritters and steak was particularly healthy... but it was good!! The spicy sauce on the fritters is awesome). There's plenty of seating, and if you're not already on campus for work or the medical complex, there is parking behind the restaurant.

Got a four pack of chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin cookies and they were delicious especially the oatmeal raisin! The staff was very friendly, greeted us when we entered and offered samples of the cookies. Will definitely be coming back!
