This place is hands down one of the best cookie places I have ever been to. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop was so nice, clean and sharp.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Anthony, the owner, was such a sweet guy and i loved talking with him. He hooked up my wife and I with a chocolate covered shortbread cookie for our anniversary, to which we were both grateful. While there we also ordered more cookies, all of which were absolutely amazing! Thank you again for blessing us today and sharing your cookie magic with us. Looking forward to hitting this up again the next time I come to SF!! read more

My cousin has been so kind enough to bring us a box of Anthony's a few times throughout the years at family gatherings. We just happened to pass Anthony's while in the Mission and the "we are open" sign on the street. I peeped inside the heavily tinted window: no patrons inside, but then I saw movement in the back and tugged on the door. Yes! Open! The lady at the counter wasn't very welcoming, but I didn't pay it much attention. Maybe she was so focused on her baking? I asked if the peanut butter would be available today. She said yes, but then shrugged when I asked about what time it would be ready. I settled on a chocolate chip and a toffee. $3 for a cookie smaller than my small palm. Too sweet, but I did like the soft chewy texture. If my cousin brings these again, I hope she gets the toffee, and the peanut butter so I can try it. read more

Anthony's Cookies is, without question, the best cookie shop I've ever been to. I literally drove all the way from Gilroy, California to San Francisco just to try it after seeing it featured on Barstool's pizza review with Dave Portnoy -- and let me tell you, it was 100% worth the drive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop has that classic, welcoming neighborhood feel the moment you walk in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can smell the fresh-baked cookies right away, and you already know you're about to have something special.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But nothing could've prepared me for how good the Chocolate Chip Cookies & Cream cookie was. This was hands down the best cookie I've ever had in my life. Perfectly baked -- slightly crisp on the outside, soft and gooey in the center -- and packed with flavor. The balance between the rich chocolate chip base and the cookies & cream flavor was unreal. Every bite had the perfect texture and just the right amount of sweetness without being overpowering. It tasted fresh, homemade, and made with real care. You can tell Anthony's Cookies doesn't cut corners. The quality is next level. This isn't just a cookie -- it's an experience. I've had a lot of cookies in my life, and nothing even comes close. If you're anywhere near San Francisco, you have to stop here. Even if you're not nearby, it's worth the trip. I drove from Gilroy and I'd do it again without hesitation. Anthony's Cookies gets a 10.0 straight up from me. Absolute perfection. read more

Came here after a decade, late afternoon. Inside they had a list of their available cookies on the wall. I really wanted to try their toffee chip but they were already out of it. I got their chocolate chip cookie instead and it was pretty good warm off the rack. The nice woman rung me up and we made small talk about my tree nut sensitivity. Would definitely like to come again a little earlier to try that toffee chip :) read more

Not being from the area, and walking around Valencia Street we saw Anthony's Cookies and my wife wanted to check it out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Simple bakery with some seating to relax at. No outside seating at all. No customer restroom in sight[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Customer Service was welcoming and friendly. *Cookies & Cream - good but wished they had more cream pieces. *Classic Chocolate Chip - soft yet had that nice crunchy exterior.

I love this place but this time it was terrible. I usually get 6 cookies each visit. Cookies and cream, toffee, walnut and 1 snickerdoodle. Each cookie was a bit hard. They were smaller in size. This time I was not happy. The snickerdoodle was burnt. I tipped $10 for my worst experience. I'll be back. read more

Not life changing but execution is good. Warm, crispy throughout with a chewy center, very golden color. Also good distribution of chocolate chips. Very no frills chocolate chip cookie. I wouldn't say these are a must if you're in the city, I'd recommend other bakeries tbh. But! If you are in mission and happen to pass by I would recommend cuz they're fun to munch on while you walk. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Came here on a Monday night and it wasn't crowded.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got the chocolate covered peanut butter cookie and it tasted like a tagalong cookie from the Girl Scout cookies. It was pretty tasty but it was a bit small for a $4 cookie. It was pretty peanut buttery but the chocolate was melting and got all over my fingers when I was eating it. I enjoyed the cookie but not sure if I would come back as there wasn't really anything special about it to me. read more

This place has been all the hype, even 10+ years ago. I think that was probably the last time I had a cookie from there. Came in late afternoon to get a quick treat. Ordered 4 cookies which came out to be around $12.xx. The cookies were def smaller than expected or remembered. Tried the sugar cookie, cookies and cream, oatmeal chocolate and chocolate chip. They ran out of one that I wanted (can't remember now). I didn't think they were too different than any other cookie I've eaten. It wasn't anything to write home about. For the price I was expecting a larger cookies that was out of this world, but it was pretty standard in my opinion. read more

Ex-coworker heard that these cookies were good, so we walked over after having lunch in the area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even though it was MLK Monday, we were the only customers inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It smelled amazing and there were several racks of cookies. I ordered a Cinnamon Spice Cookie ($2.50) and ate it there. +Still warm -Hard and crunchy -I asked the cashier what the difference was between this and the Snickerdoodle, and she said that it had more spices. Not sure what extra spices it had, but it reminded me of a snickerdoodle, which I like, but wasn't expecting. Side notes: 1.) [[HIGHLIGHT]]Limited indoor seating: 2 tables with stools and napkins available[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] *Verdict: Since I prefer cookies that are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, I don't think I'll be back. read more

A bakery is only as good as their peanut butter cookie. Tried them 3x now. I wouldn't describe this cookie as crispy, as it's softer than soft. Example- If you tear off a piece, you can crumble that piece to sand between 2 fingers lightly. They are too small for $3.50 a piece. The peanut butter was similar size to grocery store packaged ones. I'm expecting a bigger cookie for that price. Chocolate chip is better. Customer service friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]No seating, just a menu board to the left.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would try again if the recipe and size was improved. read more

Food (1 of 2 stars): Ordered 1 Chocolate Chip and 1 Cookies & Cream cookie. There are lots of flavors though and others I'd be willing to try. The cookies were a bit smaller than I expected but they were overall pretty good! The Chocolate Chip was good as is, but would be even better if I was able to heat it up. The Cookies & Cream didn't have as strong of a flavor as other Cookies & Cream cookies I've had before. Service (2 of 2 stars): Workers were really welcoming and friendly! Ambiance (1 of 1 star): [[HIGHLIGHT]]Really open space that smells really good with the scent of fresh baked cookies![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My favorite cookie shop in the Bay Area. His chocolate chip cookies always chewy with a nice mix of chocolate. Also recommend the chocolate dipped peanut butter cookies and the cinnamon cookies. Wish they still had a location in Berkeley! read more

To roll in late on a Friday night, after a tough (really tough) day, I couldn't think of anything I wanted that would make me feel a tiny bit better (and stop that darn crying)... than dark chocolate. [[HIGHLIGHT]]What? A park In the front! Nobody in line? A lone employee, quietly washing dishes from the day and music lightly bumping out of the door? Thank you, thank you for giving me all the green flags that I made the right choice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Until... Yes- the Menu Wall!. The wall that dictates your level of momentary happiness. Because if you're from the City and down with AL's cookies, you already know there are no "bad" cookies just lower on the happiness totem pole cookies. And today, my tears were not to be accompanied by dark chocolate chip cookies. I mean no dark chocolate of any kind! I would've even settled for a regular ol' chocolate chip cookie but, no. Not even chocolate chip. No Cinnamon Spice. Just no! At this point between the day I've just had, Anthony's Wall, and the THIRD 90's old school RnB song confirming this was a heartbreak moment- I literally had to sit on a stool and gather myself. The kind-faced employee came to the register and asked how I was. Oh Sis, I know we're pretty desensitized by the encroachers who've moved here, but as a lifelong resident, it's my right to answer your question honestly like the talkative neighbor you know not to ask! (No, I didn't do her that bad) but when I said "Box" and "tears" she stepped up to the occasion! -She remained calm. -She was kind and accommodating while I haplessly ordered whatever she told me was her favorite in order of availability. -She made a pretty okay double latte with what she had on hand (you're not here for the coffee anyway) -Again, she stayed perfectly chill as tears streamed down from behind my shades. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A guy cheerfully walked in FaceTiming friends to show off he was at Anthony's! But, I was having a moment, so he needed to go. A two cookie bribe was not hard to make his day and make him disappear[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My Anthony's Cookie associate made a comment about generosity. I said, "No, I just the days it was just fun to make someone's day." She reminded me how blessed I am and handed me my bag filled with more sugar than I could eat in a month. And yes, they are all pretty great, but I was done after one. read more

Anthony's Cookies - Two or three of almost everything in store EXCEPT MY DARK CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES! Chocolate-Covered Shortbread Peanut Butter Oatmeal Raisin - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

These are HANDS DOWN the BEST cookies in the City! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also nothing like walking down Mission on a nice day to get some cookies! Ambience is awesome![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The quality of the cookie is where its at! I highly recommend the cookies and cream and toffee flavor! I haven't ventured away from those because I just really like those 2. I cannot emphasize enough that this is a MUST GO TO SPOT if you're ever in San Francisco! The cookie is a nice hand-size, where its thin enough to have a nice chew. And the edges are just thicker than the center to where it provides a mountain of a crisp not too crunchy edge. The cost may be a bit pricey for the cookie but I cannot emphasize enough that it is WELL WORTH IT. Coming from a frugal person like me, every time I bring this for holidays for fam that's not in the City; its a hit!! Something to keep in mind is that they run out of flavors quick because I think they get a lot of company catering orders so if you go late in the business hours - its at your own risk. read more

Good solid cookies. No one else was there when we walked in so service was quick. Tried to stop in another time but business hours on a site was not updated and they were closed. Got a classic chocolate chip, shortbread covered in chocolate, cookies n creme, and snickerdoodle. Pricing was reasonable and size was smaller than other bakeries but matched the price. Texture of them all seemed perfect. Soft on the inside and a bit crisper on the outside. Flavor was delish too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Wish they had a display case to see the cookies instead of just reading the menu.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I am surprised how good their reviews are... The ones I had were very crunchy, maybe even stale. & with how expensive they are, you would think they would be the huge, chunky cookies like Crumble, but they are the size of storebought cookies. They also serve ice cream. read more

Really awesome cookies. Stopped by on a Friday afternoon, and no wait at all. Cookies were clearly fresh to the day, so not stale at all, and service was fast and friendly. The cookies are pretty small, but honestly better that way; each makes for a perfect serving. The texture were great on them; slightly crispy exterior, and soft tender on the inside. The toffee chip had a really yummy caramel flavor, while the chocolate chip had a really solid amount of chocolate. Overall, great selection of cookies and flavors. Definitely give them a go. read more

Love Anthony's Cookies! Been coming here since my daughter was around 6 yrs old and she is now graduating middle school so I decided to stop by and grab some of our fave cookies.

Non-descript bakery offering no frills authentic home baked cookies and we got what we wanted - memories of home and chewy chocolatey chocolate chip cookies and several other offerings. The Snickerdoodle had just the right amount of spices and a crispy chewy texture. Service was polite and quick as there was no wait to be served. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space was so utilitarian I don't think there was a place to sit down so definitely a space to get your sweet-fix on-the-go![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Finally got around to trying this place after living in the area for several years. TL;DR--it's good! I wouldn't advise making a special trip, but if you are nearby, definitely check them out! I tried a few of their bread & butter (no pun intended) staples, toffee, cookies & cream, and classic chocolate chip. Of those, the classic chocolate chip was probably my favorite. The quality of the chips was fantastic, and definitely elevates it above your ordinary cookie. I do feel that $2.50 for a single cookie is steep, given the size (about the diameter of a Coke can, and the thickness of a small notebook), but that is ultimately a preference. Everything is expensive right now, so it's hard to say where this falls on the spectrum of "acceptable." The cookies are crispy, and have a bite to them (not soft). Personally, I like this texture, but it's not for everyone, so if that's not your thing, then you may want to skip this place. I also tried two of their "specials"--the chocolate covered peanut butter cookie, and the chocolate covered shortbread. Both of these were highlights (the latter probably being my overall favorite), again for the super-high quality of the chocolate, as well as the generous coatings. They do not skimp on chocolate. However, those were also pricey at $3.75 and $5.75, respectively. When I'm back in the area, I may come in just for the shortbread alone--it's that good! Fair warning: both of these have a bit of an "oily" texture and so they are slippery and melt fast. I suspect this is due the fresh ingredients & baking (especially with the peanut butter). I did not like they that charge you $0.75 for a box to store the cookies. The prices are already high enough, and especially if you are buying more than one, the box should be included. Hopefully they change that policy in the future. read more

For years, Anthony's cookies had been on my list of spots to try but just never got around to trying them. This is probably because I'm a cookie baker myself and don't really feel the need to buy them unless someone buys them for me. This was the case here as I was gifted with a box and finally got the opportunity to taste what all the hype was about. Lucky me, these cookies didn't disappoint. What really impressed me about these cookies was that they had that perfect chewy soft texture. The cookies themselves weren't that big-- they probably could fit in the palm of your hand. Taste wise, they have my approval. Here's a breakdown: Cookies and Cream: Out of all of them, this was probably my least favorite. Let me explain. I bake up my own cookies and cream cookie and I like mine better. This one was a tad *too* sweet for my own liking and while everything else was on point (texture, bits of oreos), it just comes down to preference. I prefer mine. Can't hate on that. Classic Chocolate Chip: Again, they have perfected that texture and this is Chocolate Chip done right. I could probably keep snacking on these, so keep them away because I would need to be cut off. Chocolate dipped shortbread: This one surprised me the most because when I looked at this hunk of chocolate, I assumed it would be way too sweet. It was not. The shortbread inside wasn't too sugary, and the chocolate on the outside wasn't that sweet either. Good balance and felt like a treat. I hear they're going to tackle the Ice cream game next. Looking forward to trying soon when they do. read more

Anthony's is the place to go when looking for fresh cookies reminiscent of home baking. For $2.50, I got a classic chocolate chip cookie. The cookie had a nice deep brown color, with crispy edges, a soft inside, and semi-sweet chocolate. I got there an hour after the bakery opened and they had already sold out of some of their most popular cookies. Go right when it opens for a larger variety of options! read more

The cookies are SOOO damn good. You can't go wrong with any of them but my favorites are the toffee chip, chocolate walnut, snickerdoodle, and cookies and cream. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because the price. The cookies are pretty small for what you pay for and there are no cookies packs that offer a small discount if you buy a bunch. Also b/c the cookies are small I noticed that one time my cookies were over cooked, making me question the consistency but otherwise it is great and i love supporting a black owned business! read more

Amazing! I ordered 40 chocolate chip cookies for my wedding and no one was disappointed. Thick, crispy, chewy and quality chocolate! My husband squirreled one away for me that I ate 3 days later and it was still delicious. I tried calling in the order but no answer so I emailed them and got a call back the next morning. I was surprised that it was $1 to have them individually wrapped so I opted not to do that. It would have been a waste anyway because everyone enjoyed them on the spot. I love putting people on to Anthony's and supporting this business because of the quality of ingredients and friendly service. read more

The place looks clean and minimalistic. Great service as well. They didn't judge us as we only wanted 1 cookie. The cookie tasted so good! The toffee chip cookie definitely hit the spot for us! Will be back next time! read more

This place has been on my saves to try for awhile now and I was pretty disappointed after finally trying them today. The cookies are small, which isn't necessarily an issue, but just not what I was expecting. I also tried to order a few cookies that they had listed as available and was told that they didn't have them, so it wasn't clear on what was actually available when ordering. I placed my order and they asked if I wanted them in a box and I said sure, that sounds great and then later came to find out that they charge you 75¢ for a box - it just seems crazy to me that you're charging customers for a cardboard box when they're spending ~ $3.50 per cookie/ $40 on cookies to go in said box ??? Anyway, I digress As for the cookies, texture was decent. The oatmeal had a really great chew, chocolate chip was crispy edges with a softish center. The snickerdoodle was sad - she had no flavor and was over baked. They also originally told me that I couldn't order a snickerdoodle cause they were just baked and needed to cool for an hour - which was confusing given their size, but also, a warm cookie is usually the best kind so that seems like it would be a chance to upsell. All in all, it was fine but it was just fine. I wouldn't go out of my way to get them and I think there are better bakery's to try with how many options there are in the city. read more
