    They got me with the sign on the highway driving thru on my way to San Luis Obispo from Cambria. They give out free samples of almost each kind of cookie which makes you just end up buying more. Cookies are delicious and so many different kinds to choose from.

    Oooh cookie

    Nice little cookie shop in Cayucos we stopped at. They offer samples to help you make your decision although they all taste good. The staff were all nice and helpful and the staff package them very nicely.

    Brown Butter is a niche bakery whose highlight is the shortbread cookies. They do offer other cooked in packs of six that you can arrange by flavor, to your liking. There are generous samples of their baked goods. Admittedly, my husband noshed on the samples and was too full for an individual desert of which I partook. The bakery is cute and well arranged. Product is packed in their signature labels and packaging made it so tempting to want to buy all the things. Most of us opted for the custard ice cream (so rich and tasty) adorned with a shortbread cookies of the day: chocolate chip. Goodness in every bite!! Next time I'm getting the cookie 6 pack - I still haven't stopped thinking about those guys!

    We arrived were greeted at entry and were offered samples. There was a few choices of samples which was nice. My husband got to try them out, Im gluten free so they kindly showed me what was available. Its a cute set up with cookies nicely displayed throughout the store. I recommend this place the flavors are wonderful.

    A YouTube SENSATION! My Mom and I got the tip to visit Brown Butter Cookie from a YouTuber and we were so glad we bookmarked this local business! Brown Butter Cookie is growing with more stores and treats. You MUST visit this cookie shop because the sea salt treats are delicious. The titular Brown Butter Cookie is obviously fantastic, but the sea salt chocolate (made with Ghirardelli Chocolate) treats are just as amazing! The shop was spacious, clean and easy to navigate. Prices are a little high, but so is the quality. I liked the staff, they offered samples and were easy going. Brown Butter Cookie is a Cayucos favorite as I saw many locals entering the store!

    Cute packaging

    Melt in your mouth cookies! I've never had a cookie like this. They also offer samples inside so you can try before you select your flavor. They had samples of the original brown butter cookie, chocolate chip, and a chocolate cookie. I'm sure there are others but those were the samples they had out the day I went. The staff was friendly with answering questions. This location is on the main waterfront street in Cayucas which is one block from the beach and near the pier. It's the perfect place to stop before you enjoy a walk on the pier. A cookie while you walk on the pier - is there anything better?

    No trip to the central coast is complete without a trip to BBC. In fact we stopped in 3 days in a row this trip. We haven't been here in over a year/ so our cravings were high. Omg- the honey cookies are so delicious I can't stop eating them. We picked up a few packages yesterday to give to friends, but then I got a sweet tooth last night and broke into the bag... so yummy I couldn't stop. We also picked up a few of the variety packages. If you get there early they may have some that are 50% off- but these go fast. Today I got the lemon ones- again, these are amazing We have always been greeted as soon as we enter with a sample of the original flavor, and they have 3 other ones with samples set up for the taking. Can't wait to go back again tomorrow and grab some more cookies... one can never have enough Such an adorable shop, both inside and out. Friendly staff to help with suggestions for friends and family. It's the off season right now- so we have lucked out with parking right in front the last few visits. Sometimes you made need to walk a bit- but so worth it

    Did somebody say cookie?? -(in my Cookie Monster voice)
    Lance L.

    "Did somebody say cookies?" "Me. Want. Cookie!" "C" is for cookie, that's good enough for me. "Sometimes me think, what is a friend? And then me say: a friend is someone to share last cookie with" (and NO!!! This is not Kevin from the Office) But it is someone you might recognize from your childhood.... Any guesses on who quoted these famous words of wisdom about one of Americas favorite snacks/treats? Well, if you watched Sesame Street as a kid... You know exactly who I am referring to. And If not... Did you even have a good childhood?? I'm talkin' bout Sesame Streets Cookie Monster! And let me tell ya.... The Cookie Monster would most definitely give two thumbs up if he ever visited the Brown Butter Cookie Co. in Cayucos, California. I mean... They've got Chocolate Chunk, Snickerdoodle, Lemon Sugar, Oatmeal Raisin, Ginger Molasses, Peanut Butter... I mean, Do I really need to give the Cookie Monster or you over there, yeah YOU... reading this right now with that sweet tooth of yours... Anymore reasons to convince you to visit Brown Butter Cookie Co. while visiting the Central Coast? Well, Did I mention they give free samples!!!!! Yeah, I know! That's how they got me too! So whether you want a single cookie for $4 or half a dozen for $24 (what!! No discount for buying in bulk??)... Well unless you buy the Tower Special for $22 (which comes with an assortment of their classics)... This is your must-stop cookie destination while you're in the town of Cayucos. So.... Come get your Cookie On! And in the famous words from the man himself with a mouth full of cookies... "Om Nom Nom Nom"

    This store deserves 5 stars based on service and friendliness of the young beautiful people fronting the place. Plenty of generous samples inside to taste before deciding on which ones to bring home or for gifting. Packaging is neat and nice. I am especially loving the energy of the people working here, pls tip generously to your heart content.

    Save your money. Def not worth the price of these cookies. 24$ for 6. Albertsons cookies are 10 times better imo.

    Whenever I visit the Central Coast, I always have to stop in for my sea salt cookies--they are absolutely delicious. I used to buy the cookie tower for my husband and son, but they haven't been as enthusiastic about the cookies recently, so I now only buy what I enjoy. Recently, they introduced a brown butter custard served with one of their cookies. I got that for the boys on our last visit, and they said it was much better than the cookies. Now I know what to get for them to keep everyone happy. 7-10/24

    As a baker of excellent cookies I was blown away! The texture and flavor of these cookies made me speechless. The original sea salt cookies is a must try. They offer samples so try them before you buy. $12 for 6 cookies. They are already in packages. There's parking in front. Lots of shops nearby and even a free local museum. Workers were warm and informative. You can see them making the cookies. I'd definitely come here again in a heart beat

    Best cookies
    Hector R.

    Tho place has the best cookies. Had to get a few of them. To be exact $176 of cookies. Not all for us they are gifts too. lol. Worth the drive if you're in this area.

    Ask the Community - Brown Butter Cookie

    Is anyone willing to grab some "chocolate chunk" and "peanut butter" cookies from the cayucos store and ship them to me in LA? They don't ship them. Can anyone help?!?!?

    They only ship the brown butter cookies, not the big ones. It’s kind of a bummer because they are just as delicious.

    Let's do a little…read more... W. O. R. D. P. L. A. Y. I hate to "bee" a "buzz" kill.... But this is gonna "sting". And to Honey Girl Cafe... If you haven't learned this lesson yet... "You catch more bees with honey than vinegar" ------------------------------- On our recent stay in the tiny town of Cayucos, my wife needed a little boost of coffee to get her day started off right. She went on Yelp and decided that she wanted to try Honey Girl Cafe. Sounds sweet right? Well, the service we received from here... Left me a bit "salty". Not sure what it was... But the staff seemed very unhappy and acted as if we had just poked their "beehive". C'mon Honey Girl... It's coffee, it was 10am and if you step outside your shop, you can literally see ocean... Why you gotta act like you're the "bee's knees". As far as your Honey Lavender Latte, it was decent... But your service made me want to "make a beeline" to the exit as soon as our drink was ready. If it was up to me, I would have just left as quick as we had walked in... But my Queen Bee wife needed her honey and no crap service from any worker bee was going to change the Queen's mind. Before I wrote this review, I was truly hesitant about even wasting my energy on this place so I decided to do a little further research into the honeycomb. Apparently, according to another Yelp reviewers, The Honey Girl has been naughty in the past and it seems that customer service just isn't their strong suit. Multiple reviews talk about the rude staff and issues arising from behind the counter... So I decided to add a little vinegar (my experience) to the honey pot. All in all, I wasn't impressed with this place and for me to go out of my way to leave a "bad" review means you really left a bad taste in my mouth. How does "Vinegar Girl Cafe" sound? Nah, not as catchy. As for how others customers, locals and tourists alike feel about this place... That's none of my Beeswax!! I Truly hope you have a better experience than mine.

    I managed a deli for years and took pride in making delicious sandwiches for my customers. Seeing…read morethem come back time and time again was so satisfying. Well this establishment will not see me again. Just look at the pictures of my bagel sandwich. Bagel fell apart. The cucumber was so thick it flew out as I attempted to eat this mess. The cucumber and tomato was close to an inch thick WHY?. No mayo or cream cheese so it was dry. No seasoning which made it bland. Hubby ordered a BLT said it was ok which says a lot. It took them close to 15 minutes to make 2 sandwiches again WHY and to top it off it cost $26 for two sandwiches that I could of and should of made at home and would have been 10 times better and half the price. Lesson learned.

We were lucky enough to snag the last almond croissant, and what a treat it was. The exterior had a sweet, delicate crunch, and with each bite, rich almond filling oozed out for the perfect balance of texture and flavor. It wasn't overloaded with powdered sugar, and the sweetness was just right--indulgent without being overwhelming. I also tried a slice of the salmon and leek quiche. It was light and fluffy while still feeling substantial and satisfying. The combination of savory salmon and sweet leek worked beautifully together. Whether you're starting your morning or looking for a midday pick-me-up, the quiche is a must-try. I was excited to try the house made mango-infused black iced tea, but unfortunately, there was nothing mango flavored about it That said, this bakery is still well worth a visit. Between the pastries and quiche, it is an easy stop to recommend when you're in Morro Bay.
