I went to the smaller location (they have two in the same mall), which is where they prepare the food. The place was a complete mess--dirty and unorganized. It didn't look like it was just busy; it seemed like it hadn't been cleaned properly in days or even weeks. I ordered two bubble teas and some pastries. The staff gave me the teas, and I waited for the pastries. When I asked about them, the employee looked at me and said, 'What!?' in a rude tone. I explained that I was missing my pastries, and he put them in a bag and handed it to me with a dismissive attitude. Honestly, I didn't eat the pastries--I was worried about cockroaches.

First time trying this little spot. The decor is definitely cute…read more I tried their passion fruit mousse and it was good. We had milkshakes and they're good, but can't really mess those up. I will say as I was looking at their dessert displayed, I noticed a blueberry cheesecake that had gone bad and had mold. I let the attendant know but she seemed to just laugh it off (which I totally get, it's kind of awkward). For the remainder of the time I was there, I didn't notice her take it away especially because more people came in and she got busy. Hopefully it was removed. Not sure if I'd try this place again. They can definitely improve by being mindful and checking their inventory.

The Churro Bites are fried balls of deliciousness and honestly, not sure if I would describe them as "churro" since they are plain on their own but they do have the ridges like churros. I actually preferred them plain since the toppings you choose are what makes it. We got half Dubai and half Lotus & Chocolate which was an up-charge of ~$2 (not sure why). The Medium size is also perfect for sharing among 2-4 people depending on how hungry you are. I will say these are so addictive so you might even want a whole order for yourself. Both Dubai and Lotus & Chocolate were scrumptious but I found myself going back to the Lotus & Chocolate more! The churro bites have a perfect crunch and feel light & airy, the toppings were sweet & satisfying, and overall very delicious. I'm a big fan and would absolutely come back!

I finally ventured to a Levain Bakery to make my own personal assessment to determine and formulate…read moremy own opinion. Yes, the reviews are verifiably accurate and true. This location 167 West 74th Street is the original brick and mortar storefront. Levain Bakery does validate for all the hype, sweetness indulgence and fresh-baked artesian cookies and baked goodies. I am Cookie Monster from "Sesame Street" whose eyes are bigger than his stomach who becomes highly excited to engulf all cookies characteristic aesthetic thrashing, splattering every where when consuming within mere minutes. There was a short line waiting to enter for orders to be placed. Upon entering the air conditioning is at full artic chill blast and the air has a sweet aromatic odor emanating throughout. I inquired with the sales associate if the classic chocolate chip cookie contained any nuts who responded "no." I do not have any food allergies. I absolutely do not like nuts in any form. I am not allergic to nuts either. It is not my cup of tea. I am very grateful the classic chocolate chip cookie does not contain any nuts. Customer service is very attentive and exhibited who assisted me with respect, patience and perspective to explain and listen to my requests and needs as I matter. This female server was not curt and I was not rushed. I was acknowledged. I was seen. I was heard. I was not dismissed. I was respected without the standard producing a disgruntled face of reluctance to service me. I am one life in the smallest measurement. The female associate permitted me to take photos of the cookies in the display case without question which is posted with this review. Merchandise of T-shirts, tote bags, mugs, gift tin boxes are available for sale as well. This location is small as it is take-out and go. There are several steps going downward at the entrance which is not ADA accessible. There are some outdoor benches for seating, but no table. I suggest to order and consume in the comfort of your own home for full immerse enjoyment with a table. Yes, cash is accepted as that works greatly for me. Levain Bakery complies with "Prohibition of Cashless Establishments" as of March 21, 2026 where all retail and food establishments in New York State, including New York City, must accept in-person cash payments. Thank you, Levain Bakery for not giving me a red card! I was not blatantly ejected. I would surely return for another visit. Chocolate chip cookie $5.75 each One word: WOW! The interior was oozing with semi-sweetness. The cookie is gargantuan and very thick somewhat bulky. It is massive size well known weighing exactly 6 ounces (170 g) each and measure about 8-10 cm. in diameter and 3-4 cm thick. It is not a traditional flat cookie as I hoped. It is massive chewy interiors. It is soft. It is not crispy. Levain takes the classic chocolate chip cookie and make it their version. It did break apart and dropped onto my plate upon the third bite. It is amazing! I suggest warm-up the cookie in the microwave for approximately 1 minute. I purchased two (2) quantity of these delightful chocolate chip cookies. Delicious. I enjoyed mine with one glass of red wine which I did achieved equanimity state of mind. The red wine was a birthday 2023 gift from a work colleague which I finally opened with good reason. I was floating! Nota Bene: Store policy: "There are no returns on food or beverage. Merchandise (T-shirts, bags, etc.) may be exchanged within 7 days with a receipt. Items must be unworn/unused and all original tags/packaging must be included."

We were introduced Levain Bakery cookies when I had my little guy over two years ago. One of my friends came to visit, gave us a box and told us to try it because the cookies are delicious. I remembered how big and filling the cookies were, you'd sit in comfort knowing how the flavors pop in your mouth. Now cut to this past year, we found out after exploring the website, there are gifts sets. Our current go to is the new parent gifts. We see it as whether a bew parent or one who is going through the next chapter with more children to raise- it's thoughtful of how a package can bring a smile to some sleep deprived parents who want to eat and relax. This was a cute idea, wish someone would gift to us after our twins were born. One day we want to check out Levain Bakery. For now, happiness is explored through the website and delivered to our famiy and friends. Thank yoi for the sweetness. Picture credit: taken by my best friend who received our new parent gifts set.
