Stopped at this cookie shop. Cute find! Gives you the happy joys joys whether your eating the cookies or giving as a gift. The person I gifted the cookie sampler was happy to receive. Got to sample their lemon cookie. Yum!

I'll take my red box back for an extra cookie next time

Every now and then I get a craving for tasty cookies. I want to "take a bite!" When I located the shop, I was having one of those days.... cookies, cookies, got to find some cookies. The shop is in a shopping center area, easily accessible. It's a cheerful shop with sparkling, gleaming counters, showcases, and kitchen area behind the counter. Pops of red, my favorite color for feeling great. My selections required a red box, and the young lady who served me was patient as I made my choices. The service altogether was friendly and fun. When I finish my box of cookies, I can bring it back for more and receive a free cookie! Why not 5 stars? The cookies are on the small side. They're so good that I want them to be larger.

Easter Premium cookie tin and 16 Piece Deluxe Variety Cookie Tin

Kathleen C.

After trying their bagged cookies from a local pizzeria, we decided to order some for delivery. We wanted to try the Easter tin, my kids loved the egg shaped ones. More specifically the cookies all had great flavors, I'm glad I got the lemon ones twice because it was balanced sour and sweet, I want more and more. the triple chocolate were darker chocolate flavor which offset some of the more sugar coated ones. The snickerdoodle were more flaky instead of chewy in consistency. The classic chocolate chip was salty and sweet, making them irresistible. I appreciate the efforts from the owner for getting our order out to us & making some yummy recipes that inspire me to share these with people we know. I'll be ordering again when I head back to work. Otherwise I'll be trying to find a day to visit the store in person & get more!

A variety of cookies sold at Cookie...Take A Bite! at the Larkfield Shopping Center in San Rosa.

Once you take a bite out of the delectable sweet creations found at Cookie...Take A Bite!, I guarantee you'll be back for more! Located in the Larkfield Shopping Center in the Larkfield Wikiup neighborhood of Santa Rosa, Cookie...Take A Bite! is the passion project of owner and chief cookie maker Tracy Mattson, who takes cookie making to a whole new level. Mattson is known for her creations that may be small in size, but they emphasize her creativity with quality organic ingredients. With her signature cookies she took inspiration from cafes and bakeries that one would see in Europe, with the ultimate goal of being to give customers her cookies that are not overly sweet or overwhelming in size. Following a weekend brunch activity, a friend and I were looking for a treat to satisfy our craving sweet tooth and my friend recommended Cookie...Take A Bite! after she went multiple times in the past to pick up not only treats for herself but treats for her dog as well. One of the many reasons she came back for multiple visits was the fact that the ingredients printed on the back of every back every bag were familiar ingredients that one would find in any grocery store. Located in the interior of the outdoor shopping center, parking is plentiful thanks to the large lot. Upon entry, one will notice that the storefront of Cookie...Take A Bite! is rather small as the majority of their actual shop is their cookie kitchen, of which it is used for both the creation of cookies for not only their shop, but for catering and packages for their cookie membership club. Once you open their front door, the first thing that greets you is their case of sweet little cookies. And on this day they had nine cookie varieties available. One of the best things about the cookies at Cookie...Take A Bite! is very inexpensive as it is recommended that you mix and match your cookie purchases and they sell them at 25 dollars for 36 cookies, 10 dollars for 14 cookies and 5 dollars for 6 cookies or 1 dollar each. I thought that the 14 cookies were just right for my appetite and there were seven cookies in their case that I wanted to double up on, so everything worked out. I decided to order two each of their Plum Jam Thumbprint cookies and their Oatmeal Raisin cookies, both of which were labeled as new. I also ordered two of their Tequila Lime Twist cookies, which won them a 2019 Best of Show Cookie award, two of their Classic Chocolate Chip cookies, two of their Triple Chocolate Threat, two of their Snickerdoodle Sugar cookies and two of their Roasted Peanut Butter cookies, which are also gluten-free. Packaged in a perfect carrying case made of red cardboard, once I got home I tore into one of my Triple Chocolate Threat cookies and I could instantly tell the quality ingredients that Mattson puts into every bite. After having a second cookie, I noticed how each bite consisted of a flavor that wasn't overly indulgent but managed to handily my craving for something on the sweeter side. A real star cookie to me was their Tequila Lime Twist, which had equal parts sweetness from the sugar and sourness from the lime to make for the perfect treat. This was so good, I can't wait to see what other special flavors they concoct at Cookie...Take A Bite! The fact that I got 14 cookies for only 10 dollars is the truly remarkable feat. My only regret is that I only decided to order only 14 cookies as I easily could have purchased an additional 6 cookies for 5 dollars. Obviously, Cookie...Take A Bite! is going to be a regular stop whenever I'm up in the Santa Rosa area, I can't think of a more perfect place to stop off before heading to a wine tasting north of there. Wine and cookies, could there be a better pairing? They are closed on Sundays, which means a Saturday visit is a must, but when we got there at about 2 p.m. they still had plenty of inventory left and as I write this, I am personally trying to figure out how to save up my inventory as each cookie that I try is tastier than the next. There's a little bit of love with each cookie made at Cookie...Take A Bite! and I am savoring each and every morsel!

It was so good the first time I had to come back again and again! Plus I had to get my dog his treats as the first time I came they were sold out (they are popular). Tracy's cookies are so delicious, they have lots of flavor and are so moist. And when I say moist, I mean they are not hard the next day as they are still moist. I've tried many of Tracy's cookies from the Triple Chocolate Treat, Ginger Honey Snap, Chocolate Raspberry Splash, Classic Chocolate Chip (I tasted a hint of salt or maybe sea salt which gave it that extra yum factor), Peanut Butter, Thumb Print Jam, various Meringues (the espresso meringues was delicious!) and so many more. But I think absolute favorite, though I love them all, is the Tequila Lime Twist. This was so light and refreshing and the lime flavor just brought it all together. And the prices are just right. I've purchased the 14 for $10 and the 36 for $25 and considering my last trip was restaurant week, and purchased 36 cookies I got 3 extra as a restaurant week treat. And there are gluten free as well as vegan options. And one more thing that sets this place apart from others....they even make treats for your pooch. That's right, they make a pumpkin & parsley treat for your dog. It's a bag for $8 and I can tell you that my dog loves these treats! So there literally is something for everyone. You can even order tins of cookies online and have them delivered. They can have other services such as catering, special occasions and corporate gifts. They are taking all Covid precautions including only one customer or one party in at a time. Gloves and face masks are being worn by employees and customers are required to wear masks. This is my new go-to cookie store!

Molly R.

If you have not found this little shop yet, you need to go hunt it down. The owner is super friendly and there was a huge variety of different cookies, even gluten free! I got a mix of all the different ones and we've only tried the Snickerdoodle and chocolate chip so far, but they are already a big hit with the family! Perfect mix of gooey and soft!

Rachael S.

Check out this cookie shop for the first time today and was immediately knocked off my feet with the amazing smell of freshly baked cookies. They had a large variety and were bring out fresh ones right as I came in. I love that they constantly carry vegan and gluten free items and are changing up some of the flavors they carry. The place was super clean and service was great. I got the dog treats (my dog inhaled these when I got home) 2 each of chocolate chip, double chocolate, chocolate raspberry, lemon moon and snickerdoodle. I WAS MOT DISAPPOINTED! I love the glaze they put on some of the cookies, it's add a fresh tartness to it and they have the perfect sweetness balance. I'll definitely be back!

Little Red Box - The box was still warm to the touch! Cookies were delicious.

Tracy and her crew make super delicious cookies!! We stopped by the store in Larkfield Shopping Center and they have so many awesome flavors to choose from like "Raspberry Chocolate Splash"?! Our favorite is the Classic Chocolate Chip. Tracy is not only an amazing pastry chef, she is also very generous and kind. She does a lot for the community and has helped tons of students and nonprofit organizations. Don't waste your time (or calories) on bland, factory-processed cookies. Try one of Tracy's. They are great!! read more

We like that we can bring cookies to another level and make them a wonderful treat for any occasion.

Ultimately I chose the black and white, which was chocolate and vanilla combo. Ice cream here truly is delicious. I do think that $7.60 for the smallest ice cream scoop is overpriced. However I know that's par for the course lately.

Pros: The staff is extremely friendly and the interior of the shop is heavily decorated so much…read morepink! The decorations are adorable and make the place look livelier. I usually buy the raspberry cake slice, the macarons, and Whoopie Cookies. I've purchased the cruffles and the macarons as gifts for my friends, and they're always adorned in a cute box with a ribbon bow. There are also gluten-free cupcakes available. They've never disappointed me and I often walk out of the store with a smile and my sweet tooth satisfied. Cons: Street parking can be tricky during busier times. However, it's about a 5 minute walk away from the Santa Rosa Plaza Mall. The cake slices and cupcakes lay on the buttercream pretty thick, which can get overly sweet. Overall: I had been going to Sift Dessert Bar since 2015, and when it closed in 2024, I was surprised to find that the location for the original Santa Rosa store is now owned by a former manager of Sift Dessert Bar! If you missed Sift Dessert Bar, you'll definitely love Blondie's Bakery Boutique. The colorful interior and sweet treats make this shop a must-visit. While I have ordered a cake from Sift Dessert Bar, I have not done so for Blondie's Bakery Boutique.

The only thing I regret about coming here is that now every single time I go to Petaluma I'm going…read moreto go out of my way to come back. Seriously, you might think pie is pie, but no, there's pie, and then there's pie from Petaluma Pie Company. Friendly employee and clean area outside the shop is well. So that's good. My only complaint is the eco-friendly fork they provide is absolutely awful. Not sure if it's a Petaluma requirement but real plastic forks would be much appreciated. Regardless, this place is a must-try!

I Spy With My Little Pie…read more This farm-to-table, locally-owned pie shop has been serving up both sweet and savory pie creations in Downtown Petaluma since 2010. They recently underwent an ownership change in 2024 from the OGs, but fortunately, instead of selling to a corporation, they sold it to an employee and his mother to help ensure the original ethos and quality remain intact. The Good: * Their pies are made with locally-sourced and organic ingredients bought from the local farmers market--as well as some fruit that they grow themselves! * Outdoor dog-friendly seating * As mentioned above, they have both sweet and savory pies. We only tried the sweet *oink oink* * Friendly service * Love that they have both full sized pies and smaller ones, so you don't have to commit to a big ol' pie. * We tried their Elvis (PB, banana, and chocolate) and their Black & Blue Crumble and they were both fabulous! I leaned a bit more to the B&B, as I absolutely adored that granola crumble on top, but the Elvis was no slouch either. The Meh: * Interior is small and very cramped. Definitely a grab-and-go type operation. The Ugly: * Parking in DT Petaluma can be a hassle, as it's street parking only, but at least it's free. Conclusion: Fantastic spot to scratch that 3.14 itch--and I'm always itchy!

I am not a local customer, I live on the East Coast. I was searching on-line for something to send to grieving family member. I came across Cookie...Take A Bite! I was torn between sending flowers and cookies. I thought cookies were a nice change but flowers always look so pretty. I called Take A Bite and spoke with Tracy, she was AMAZING! After telling her I was unsure what to do and telling her I didn't know if the flowers would even be able to be delivered on time (I was only giving her 1 day notice). She told me she would take care of everything. The next day my family member had a beautiful FRESH BAKED tower of cookies as well as a wonderful Peace Lily. Tracy picked up the plant at the florist for me and delivered it with the cookies. She also put my mind at ease by calling my relative and asking the most convenient time for delivery. She went to deliver and they still were not home so she put them in a safe spot and sent me a photo. She told me she would confirm that they received them. She e-mailed me shortly after letting me know the items were received. She is one of a kind! Fresh baked cookies with that kind of customer service...you CAN'T go wrong!!!! I highly recommend trying Cookie...Take a Bite! You will NOT be disappointed!!! read more

Ordered several different cookie flavors and a few in the shape of a heart for my girlfriends bachelorette party weekend. All cookies were fresh and chewy! All flavors are yummy, the girls said the Orange Vanilla and Aztec Chocolate were their favs! Of course, the cookies didn't last long around our group of cookie lovers. All gone in a day! Great customer service & yummy cookies. I will definitely order from Cookie... Take A Bite again. :) read more

Recently used Cookie...Take a Bite for our company event and Tracy was amazing! Had over 250 guests for the event and ordered 25 dozen cookies, I wish we ordered double that amount because everyone loved the cookies and they were gone within 5 minutes! Super easy to work with, great quality, will definitely be working with Tracy for our next event! read more

Unexpected flavors very clean and bold. Each flavor was exciting to try and I kept going back for more. When I think of what a cookie should be I always think of Cookie. .. Take A Bite. Its a good thing they are not closer to me because it would substantially increase my waistline. Thank you and keep baking. read more
