I love Cinnamon Works. During the 20 years I lived in Seattle, every so often I would treat myself to a frosted pumpkin cookie. Now when I visit Seattle, Cinnamon Works and a pumpkin cookie are a must stop. A Pike Place Market treasure. read more

Definitely not for me, tried a bite of my wife's cinnamon roll. I wouldn't buy it again.

Vicky T. raves about THE PUMPKIN COOKIE: http://www.yelp.com/biz/cinnamon-works-seattle#hrid:B3y3TOoqtm4Q5QYFIpcwQg My trip was kinda "spur of the moment" and thus I had no time to research places to eat. Lucky for me, this wonderful cookie haven immediately caught my eye while walking on 1st street. From a size perspective, let me give you the ratio: 1 cookie=6 little chips ahoy. I grabbed 3 hoping to get a variety of flavors in my mouth. Peanut butter, Chocolate chip, and the famous pumpkin cookie. Pics:http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/K1DWXBlQYt1EiKgWD-3Qdg?select=AiOEGHG5SXEkiXyWcKinKg They aren't cheap either, I blew like $11 bucks on 3 cookies, but they are massive-WHOA! If you are wondering if I immediately devoured all 3 cookies, I didn't. I had bites of each. They were better fresh, but I really couldn't eat all that much sugar, especially after a dozen donuts! read more

LOVED Cinnamon Works! There were so many vegan options available, and they had several other items that were accommodating to other diets as well (sugar free, gluten free). I got the vegan maple cinnamon roll and it was so good!! Also the young man that worked at the shop was extremely nice and polite, and asked if we wanted our rolls warmed (of course we said yes). This place is a must if you're at Pike Place. read more

Pike Place Market has a high concentration of bakeries and sweet spots. For the most part, each has its own niche with a little crossover. Cinnamon Works is the bakery with a conscience as it has numerous vegan and gluten-free options. Not that the "we like a lot of butter in our baked goods" will not find something worth trying here. I did. The selection here is pretty much limited to a few types of baked goodies. Specifically scones, cookies and cinnamon rolls. Considering that cinnamon is part of the moniker, logically I drew the conclusion that the cinnamon roll and its variation would be the star attraction. Turns out it was not, the cookies are the clear reason to try Cinnamon Works. Stopped by over the weekend to give this place a try. It was the afternoon, I was pleased to learn everything was half off! Must be a closing hours special or something. Picked up a wheat pecan sticky roll (bun?) (reg. $3.75), a plain jane cinnamon roll (reg. $2) and a molasses gingersnap cookie (reg. $3.75). The sticky roll/bun and the cinnamon roll were pretty average. The cinnamon roll was a bit on the small side and a bit lacking in flavor. The sticky roll was decent sized, but the flavor was pretty subdued. Okay selections, but kind of pricey for something that disappointments. However what saved this visit was the molasses gingersnap cookie. Seemed like a good option to try given it is the holiday season. And I was right. The flavor of the spices come out in full force. The cookie was also chewy which was good, though not perfect. There were a few hard spots. Still a solid cookie offering. Cinnamon Works is an a-okay place in my book. The rolls were a bit eh, but the cookie offerings are worth a try. read more

On the corner located one block from the Pike St. entrance, Cinnamon Works exists to suppress the sugar appetites of many people like myself. You'll see people walk by nonchalantly and then drag and stop to look at the huge, fresh baked goods in the display case. It's inevitable. And funny. I love their raisin cinnamon roll and the pull-apart cinnamon croissant-looking thingy that's about the size of my face. Can't even finish it in one sitting. It's like the size of a burrito. AND fairly priced. You're gonna spoil your next meal... And that's okay. read more

I was in Seattle for the weekend and read about Cinnamon works when googling gluten-free bakeries in the area to try. When exploring pike's market I wanted to make sure and find Cinnamon Works - it was so conveniently locked at the corner of pike and pine that I went back daily while there. My favorite was the monster cookie - it was huge but also full of flavors mixed in. The cinnamon roll was also gooey goodness. read more

One of life's simple pleasures for me has been walking down to Pike Place Market in the morning right after it opens, beating the crowd, getting a cup of coffee at Starbucks, and then walking a few doors down to grab a sticky bun at Cinnamon Works. Cinnamon Works has been in its present location in the market for as long as I can remember. It bakes up a variety of specialty breads (to include vegan, gluten-free, and egg-free products), which fills the surrounding area with that fresh baked break and cinnamon smell that is nothing like my mom ever made! The girlfriend and I split a whole-wheat sticky bun that was fresh out of the oven. The bun was big, sugary, cinnamony, and sticky. However, instead of the usual topping of sticky crushed pecans, it was topped with sliced almonds. The sticky bun failed to live up to the memory of the sticky bun. Bummer. read more

I came here twice during my 4 day visit. I came back just for their Monster cookie. I couldn't decided which I wanted, peanut butter, chocolate chip, oatmeal, they're huge so the woman suggested why not have it all in one! So hello, Monster cookie. A blend of chocolate chip, peanut butter, oatmeal, butterscotch, and nuts, who wouldn't want it all? First of all, it's a huge cookie, and great for sharing if you want. But that first bite had me hooked. It's a slight crisp into it but so chewy and moist. The mixture of all the flavors were equally dispersed into every bite. And that's exactly why I came back for seconds. They have a variety of cookies including vegan so come here for both options. read more

Cinnamon Works - One huge Monster - Bakeries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

If you're by Pike Place and birds are circling overheard (not just diving by).. you're either dead and don't know it (Beetlejuice style) or you've got some exposed Cinnamon Works num nums. TAKE COVER! Bird sh*t is not good luck.. and it's double no-good-luck if them birds take away your food! Anyway.. LOVED Cinnamon Works.. quoth the meat eater. I've purchased their vegan cinnamon rolls and their molasses cookies and WHOA! For $3+ bucks I was skeptical but.. whew. Worth every penny. I thought the cinnamon roll was amazing. Of course the fat kid in me wanted it to be dripping with hot icing.. but it was perfect the way it was (room temp) and I didn't feel like a rock after eating the whole thing. This is good and bad.. thank heaven for the price.. otherwise I would have been there every day! The molasses cookie ranks up there in the Top 5 Molasses Cookies of all Trish Time. Both were ginormous portions. To address some of the reviews I've seen.. I didn't think the service was horrible. In fact, I think the woman behind the counter handled herself well while people lined up to pick out their sweets of choice. Methinks there's some projection involved.. just judging by what I saw while I was there. Slash, I don't know about you Seattlites (is that what they call you? heh).. but there are a ton of places in Boston that state why they've raised prices (because hasn't everyone). When I saw the sign, I wasn't offended.. but that's just laid back sugar high me. read more

I wanted it get the big faced cookie that everyone was talking about in prior reviews. CW sits on one of the corners on Pikes Place by Pikes Market. Couple of glass windows with lots of baked goods. I saw the cookie that I wanted, but there was no staff to be found. A few mins later, there was a line forming behind me wanting COOKIES... Someone from the back finally emerged and assisted me in my selection. Me want a chocolate chip cookie please!!! Ginormous cookies are $5 a piece. Not the best cookie I've ever had, but super filling and had lot of chocolate chips (which I love!). Nuke it up and it'll taste fresh like cookies right out of the oven! read more

Great cookies, my friend bought 7 to bring back home to CA. Coffee tasted horribly like water. read more

Great selection of cookies, cinnamon rolls, muffins, and more! Upon the recommendation of the staff, I tried the ginger snap and the monster (their specialty) cookies and both were delicious. I was shocked at how heavy the bag was, these cookies are huge! Well worth the price. While I didn't try them, there's a selection of vegan and gluten free options as well. read more

Who doesn't love cookies the size of your hand!?!? We got there as they were stacking up a warm fresh batch of chocolate chip cookies. The chocolate chips were still all melty and amazing. The Monster cookie was my favorite though, with oatmeal, pb, white and regular chocolate chips and nuts. So tasty! And the staff was super friendly. read more

I was walking around Pike's Place and this caught my eye. A bunch of delicious looking cookies to bring me over. Giant cookies. Huge Cookies. I decided to go with their famous frosted pumpkin cookie. It could have fed an army, but I handled it all by myself (well... I shared a little). I don't know why but pumpkin and baked goods are a magical combination. read more

The staff was so friendly and the cookies are just a good. I had the snickerdoodle which just melted in my mouth Sweet a baby Jesus!

The cookies in the window and other pastries are very eye appealing and will draw you in to buy one of them. The flavor and texture of their special cookie was pretty good but nothing too memorable. read more

I am sad to write this review because I really wanted to love this place (I LOVE cinnamon!!!). I've had their cinnamon roll twice now and I was underwhelmed both times. The first time was a few years ago, second time was last week. I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt thinking maybe I just got a day old cinnamon roll the first time, that wasn't the case. The problem for me is that their cinnamon roll is dry and somewhat flaky but not buttery or cinnamony (sp? if that's even a word). I personally love a soft and buttery dough with lots of cinnamon butter in between. If you're like me, you may want to pass on getting a cinnamon roll from here. Also, we had a brownie the previous time and we didn't like that either. read more

Giant cookies for your giant sweet tooth! Snickerdoodle, was reg nothing special other than it's size. Tasted like a normal snickerdoodle if you ask me. But hey, it satisfied my sweet tooth so it's all good! Also thumbs up for vegan and gluten free options. Thumbs down for only have one worker serving up the goods. Felt like I waited a century standing in line, as she took the order, made the coffee and served up the goodies. read more

4.5 stars. We were walking around Pike Place Market one afternoon and noticed that Cinnamon Works offers a whole section of Gluten Free baked goods/cookies! Our nephew who has celiac disease has had little opportunities to enjoy GF food while living in SE Asia, so we got him a huge GF Monster cookie we saw in their GF section. We initially wanted their GF muffin, too, but unfortunately, they already ran out of them in the afternoon. Overall, their cookie is a bit expensive...however, given its huge size, and loads of goodies in their monster cookie, as well as hard to find GF item, we don't mind at all. Even my highly gluten tolerant SO said the cookie actually tastes great like normal cookies and agreed with him, too! Overall, this place offers a great alternative for gluten intolerant/individuals with celiac disease to stop by. They have more selection of GF baked goods, so you won't have to stick to just your old, plain bland food. read more

My favorite cookies. This place is a must-stop whenever in the area. Go for the snickerdoodle! Prices are not the cheapest, but the cookies are quite large and totally worth it. read more

THIS WAS GREAT!! If you are going to pikes place market definitely stop at this place for a cookie. It was so delicious and was a great afternoon snack. Highly recommended, and the costumer service was also great. read more

Best cookie ever! We got the monster cookie which was humangous! It was fresh and warm and crunchy and so flavorful! Would definitely come back to try the gluten free ones to see how it compare. read more

I wish they wrote on the receipt and label items as what the items were as I got an item with pork and we don't eat pork. Overall service was good, quiche was decent and coffee could have been better. Would give them another shot read more

Either you just take cash or you work out your pricing so you are not adding $.50 at the register for a purchase. My cookie cost $5.75 --credit card interchange fees do NOT cost $.50 per transaction. I know this I'm a small also and I don't nickel and dime a customer that only wants one item. Your printed sign by your register is small but says you have a $4 minimum purchase. I won't be back. Maybe you and the tourists that frequent your stall won't care or read this but integrity in business goes a long way. read more

My honey loves this place. He had the peanut butter, ginger snap, & snicker doodle! 5 stars for all of them he says read more

Cinnamon Works - Maple cinnamon roll - Bakeries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I went to this specific bakery out of all of them because I'm allergic to eggs and can only have vegan cookies. There were 4 young adults working and I asked if they had chocolate chip with no nuts, I couldn't hear the response. With the staff wearing masks and all the outdoor noise I asked them to repeat what they said 2x. That pissed them off and when I signed my receipt and went to walk off, one of the female works yells "you're welcome!!!" Oh now I can hear you because your screaming at me when I did nothing wrong. I came back and told them off. How can you even scream at a customer when you're in the wrong!? I honestly couldn't hear and asked you to repeat yourself and that warrants being rude to me? I was verbally assaulted by ALL the staff and then some random kid that wasn't working chimed in and told me to grow up! I had to walk off before it got real ugly. All that drama for 3 really terrible cookies. I got the vegan snickerdoodle and the vegan/gf chocolate chip and one regular CC for my husband and he was disappointed too. If I could have found an email address I'd have told the owners this happened but they don't have one listed so here I am making my horrible experience public. Also I drove 45 minutes to get there, paid $30 for parking and brought my cousin visiting from Australia so YA I was pretty pissed off that some teens could be such jerks! p.s my cookies went in the garbage read more

When I need a cookie fix, Ill sneak out of my office and come here right quick. Been here a few times so far and had a few items like the snickerdoodle cookie, oatmeal raisin cookie, choco chip cookie and cant remember a few other items I tried from friends and coworkers. Cookies are huge in size but costs $4.50. WOW! Very pricy for a cookie! I think most of them are vegan friendly but as long as it taste good, I'm ok with it.....and they all have so far. A lot of items to choose from and it makes it a tough decision. They also have big ol' cinnamon buns too......why wouldnt they being named Cinnamon Works. Anyways, a good place to get a sweet tooth satisfied, but 3 stars for pricing. read more

I love their convenient location in Pikes Market; my brother was able to drop me off right in front of Cinnamon Works. I was bummed out the first time I went here because they were out of their vegan cinnamon rolls. I instead bought one of their monster sized vegan chocolate chip walnut cookies. The cookie was so good that I didn't miss the cinnamon roll! I was able to go back a few days later and finally scored one of their famous vegan cinnamon rolls. It was worth the wait! Instead of doing a traditional cinnamon roll icing on top they did a maple glaze. It was pretty sweet but really good! read more

Cinnamon Works has the friendliest employees and serves GIANT cookies from an optimal location on Seattle's Pike Place. We're talking the size of a small frisbee. The Monster Cookie, their signature creation, contains chocolate, white chocolate, and butterscotch chips chock full of walnuts with a hint of brown sugar. It's pretty darn tasty! The molasses ginger snap is my favorite, super gingery!!! Super duper snickerdoodles too! They have sticky buns, that they'll warm up for you on site with the perfectly soft texture and delicious taste. A great place for dessert after chowing down on seafood at the market. read more

A bakery kiosk across the street from the Pike Place Market that specializes in cinnamon rolls and other baked goods with cinnamon. What is nice about this place are they also offer many of the same goods in vegan and gluten free form. Cinnamon Works makes a nice pit stop whilst at the Market! read more

Tiny place that works at a corner in the public market, they serve a variety of cinnamon desserts with gluten free options. I didn't see the cinnamon rolls until it was too late so I settled with a snickerdoodle cookie, still good. For 5 dollars I got a pretty large cookie but definitely not worth $5. They also charge a card service fee, wtf? Nice staff, they don't speak much so expect a quick in and out. There are a lot of other shops here but I am a big fan of cinnamon so I gave it a try. No regrets. read more

The best gluten free pumpkin muffins I've ever had. The muffins are something I look forward to and dream about whenever I'm near Pike Place. Highly recommend to anyone with or without gluten allergies. read more

I love love love this spot. Finding gluten free treats for my son and I can be difficult back home so I was so glad to see this place while exploring the market. I got a chocolate cookie (gf) and a monster cookie. Both were delicious and made perfectly. The lady that checked me out was so kind and friendly. read more

This used to be my favorite stop at the market, until today. NO vegan products available at 2pm on a Sunday afternoon and when I asked if any we're going to be made, I was very rudely told they MIGHT make some and if they did, it would be at least 30 minutes. Will NEVER go back, there are much better bakeries in town that actually want your business. read more

Was looking for a good quality warm cinnamon roll. It was okay, very underwhelming. Nothing special about it. It is the classic frosting and bun. Something you can pick up in a pack from your regular grocery store bakery section. read more

Decent gluten free and vegan chocolate chip cookie but it was overly sweet. Texture was good for gluten free and a good amount of chocolate chips, just wish it wasn't too sweet. read more

HUGEEE cookie! LITERALLY the size of your face and more. Biggest cookie I've had. Whopping $5 but worth it even just for pictures! Got the chocolate chip..though the coconut oatmeal was a competitor. The lady was really nice and explained to me what he vegan cookies were made of. They also write the ingredients down on the small card in front of the cookies. Love cookies so am continuously in look out for the best one. This one isn't yet the best but comes in probably second? Given the size of the cookie, there still a TON of chocolate chip in it including the crispy sides! Still isn't the best cookie though compared to dandelion chocolate in SF. However, will return to try diff. Ones. The place is kind of like a pick up and go place no seats etc. read more
