    Cookie Inception Deep Dish Cookie and munchie madness ice cream
    Alexia B.

    Honestly this place is so good the prices are reasonable and the cookies + ice cream are delicious! The guy on shift was very friendly and helpful in choosing my flavors.

    When you're treating a bunch of college kids to dinner at Lou Malnati's across the street and they have a craving for dessert, stop by Cookie Spin for a tasty cap to the evening - this place is fun! They had all kinds of ice cream flavors and milkshakes, and of course cookies. My favorite was the Fat Elvis ice cream - peanut butter and banana with sprinkles. The portions are generous, the milkshakes and thick, and everything hit the spot. Highly recommended - give this place a try!

    Cookie spin deep dish cookies are more reminiscent of a mini muffin. I would recommend microwaving the cookies if you are taking them home. They were a bit dry straight from the box. I would recommend the birthday cake and ghost cookies. The staff was very helpful in answering any questions, even when the shop was busy.

    I thought this was just a bakery! I am so happy to find that this place also serves all kinds of ice cream too!! Cookie Spin is conveniently located in a great area of North Center at the southwest corner of Lincoln and Montrose, across from Welles Park. This is a great spot to take the kiddos for ice cream after activities in the park! I had some fudge/brownie based ice cream, the name is escaping me at the moment. It was creamy and delicious, I couldn't get enough of it. I'm also a sucker for waffle cones and they had those too! Service was fast and delivered with a smile. There is also outside seating so feel free to hang around and enjoy your tasty treat :)

    We went to cookie spin for an evening dessert! It was yummy and the employees were nice. I found the menu a little overwhelming and the deep dish cookie sundae a bit overloaded. Otherwise this spot was great!

    Cute lil pit stop on the way home from dinner. We wernt sure what to expect but it was worth the visit! Feedback is we did 2 cookie sundaes - one S and one L thinking they would be pretty small. The S is perfect for one person, or even two if you're not that hungry and the L was huge! In hindsight we should have split one L, even a S, but still no regrets. Lots of variety for customizing!

    Got 2 small deep dish cookies: the maple bacon and the seasonal pumpkin pie. Contrary to the lower star ratings, my cookie/muffin hybrids were very fresh, moist, and flavorful. Perfect 2-bite size portions if you want to try multiple flavors (and there is A LOT to choose from). I don't understand the low reviews from people complaining about how these are more like "muffins." The menu makes the thiccccccness of these cookies pretty clear. My BF got the Bake Shake and he loved it. I will definitely come back to try their other stuff!

    S'mores, Churro, Carmel Apple and birthday cake cookies. & also regular cookie dough

    Ok so I always pass this place up going to work and finally had time and energy to stop in. When I walked in, it was as if I was expected to know what to do because the person behind the counter just stood there lol I told them it was my first time and they just said "let me know if you have any questions". Sooo yeah, there's that. So, I glance the menu and instantly knew I wanted cookie dough and some cookies to go. I was disappointed to learn that the cookies were not fresh. To be honest, I wouldn't even call those cookies. More like dried muffins . For $17 I was expecting warm and fresh but nah, definitely wasn't that. HOWEVER I say all that to say, 3 stars goes to the cookie dough and that alone is the reason ill be back. Maybe ill try ice cream next time but those cookies aint it. Yall gotta figure out a new recipe or something cause whoever said they good, lied.

    Birthday cake ice cream
    Jim D.

    We enjoyed this place although nothing stood out nor was it spectacular. The cookie did posses that "fresh out the oven" aspect & if ever in the area again I'd like to try the many shakes that were featured in their front window.

    Ugh, I hate to leave bad reviews to small businesses but these were not good. We were so excited for these but they were absolutely inedible and DRY! They're like dense, dry muffins. Nothing like a cookie! Advertised as a "soft-batch Chicago style deep dish cookie" but it was a dry hockey puck. Not even sweet enough to be a cookie. Sorry. These are really, really bad.

    An A-OK place to get your sweet-tooth craving satisfied. This place sells Wisconsin Chocolatte Shoppe ice cream, which was cool. The staff here were super nice and explained everything thoroughly. Grab your sweet concoction with either a cookie, or mix it all up into a shake. You can't lose. The shop is somewhat small and seats no more than 20 people, but you can also sit outside. I went with some peanut butter chocolate in a cup and it was pretty good.

    Soy ice cream flavors YAY!!!

    See all

    Obviously if I go somewhere that has a Ghirardelli, I'm making it a point to stop by during my…read moretrip. And so it was that we found ourselves inside this location of Ghirardelli during our Chicago trip. I wound up ordering what I always order, the World Famous Hot Fudge Sundae ("Vanilla ice cream and handmade hot fudge topped with whipped cream, diced almonds, a cherry, and a Milk Chocolate Caramel Square"). It was ready within minutes and of course it's terrific. All the components work so well together, and that hot fudge sauce remains one of my favorite things ever. (Do I wish they had included more of it? Yes, absolutely.) Don't ever change, Ghirardelli. You're great. (And please come to Canada some day!)

    While visiting Chicago lately and wanting to warm up with a nice, warm beverage, my friend and I…read morecame across the Chicago Ghirardelli Ice Cream & Chocolate Shop on Michigan Avenue, and we immediately went inside and upstairs to place an order for hot chocolate. And we certainly are glad we did...it was delicious!! While Ghirardelli Chocolate was founded in San Francisco in 1852, Chicago is fortunate to have a vibrant and welcoming shop where any visitors can indulge in the ultimate chocolate experience whether purchasing chocolate gifts or placing an order at their made in-house restaurant upstairs. They make decadent hot fudge sundaes with handmade hot fudge made fresh daily from Ghirardelli Chocolate along with a sample signature chocolate square. This particular store is open on Monday through Thursday from 11 AM to 9 PM, Friday from 11 AM to 10 PM, Saturday from 10 AM to 11 PM, and Sunday from 10 AM to 9 PM. I jumped at ordering a Classic Hot Cocoa, which offers a luxuriously deep chocolate flavor that comes through their beverage while topped with whipped cream and dusted with cocoa powder. It was served with a milk chocolate caramel Ghirardelli square. They also served shakes, coffee drinks, and more along with their huge chocolate Pick & Mix selection (where you choose your own flavors), chocolate gifts, chocolate bars, and chocolate gift bags. Go to their website (https://www.ghirardelli.com) and sign up for their e-mail newsletter to receive 15% off an order while also receiving e-mails with special offers. Another deal is that you can get free standard shipping on orders of $75 or more. I'm already dreaming of my next Ghirardelli made in-house beverage and chocolate square. Yum!!!

It's pretty small inside, there are only a few tables. A server comes to your table to place your order, which I feel like never happens at ice cream shops anymore! The menu is huge!

(The fact that the joint's been around for over 100 years doesn't hurt either.) It's a small restaurant but we managed to snag a cozy table near the back. We'd already spent most of the day eating, so we decided to share the Atomic Fudge Sundae. It's a fairly enormous concoction. I found it interesting that the hot fudge was served on the side, but it's actually pretty smart because you get control how much (or how little) sauce you get. The ice cream is the highlight. It's creamy and rich, and it's got a really nice flavor, too. The hot fudge was less impressive, but that might be because I had already eaten a Ghirardelli sundae earlier in the day and their hot fudge just can't be beat. The service was super friendly and the atmosphere was kitschy and fun. It's a cool place.
