Best cookies we've ever had! We actually went in because we got a free cookie coupon at a community trunk or treating event. So love that they're involved in our beautiful IB community. The batter is soft, chewy, sweet but not overpoweringly sweet. They're just right! We got a couple dozen to try a few different flavors and they still taste fresh even the next day. The owner was so friendly and funny. We will definitely be returning for more. read more

Once again we are so indebted to Deb's generosity. She donated 2 platters of cupcakes and cookies for my brother's funeral reception on November 9. She has shown our family extreme kindness and thoughtfulness in our times of grief. We truly appreciate it! Her baked goods are so fresh and tasty. It was a great addition to our reception. We are so grateful to this kindhearted lady. Please support her small business. I know we will! read more

Deb's cookies are amazing and Deb is such a sweet & kind person that it's always such a pleasure to do business with her. If you haven't tried the salted chocolate chip & toffee cookies, you absolutely need to give them a try. read more

My cookie craving led me here. Upon arriving, my sight went straight to the massive cookies that were inside the display case; they're huge!! Lol. Was a little overwhelmed with all of the flavors at first, but ended up getting the white choco cranberry, Oreo choco chip, and peanut butter choco chip. 3 for $5; sweet deal considering how big these cookies are. For the white choco cranberry and Oreo choco chip cookies, they were very hard and were a bit messy to eat as each bite made a bunch of crumbs; they may have been in the oven for a tad too long?? The peanut butter choco chip was a real winner though; chewy at the center, crispy on the edge, peanut buttery and chocolatey goodness. Definitely get that one if you stop by here. Overall, the cookies were a hit/miss for me. The staff was friendly and the place is small and cozy though; I went on a Sunday afternoon and there were locals dining in for brunch (they serve other food items here too). Parking was easy for me as some of the stores who share the tiny parking lot were closed at the time; parking might be difficult during the weekday. read more

We had lunch in IB today following a doctor appointment. I checked the website for Deb's Cookie Jar a few days ago and was pleased to see they would open at 1:00pm as that would be a perfect time to go after lunch. We arrived at Deb's a few minutes after 1:30 and even though the "open" sign wasn't on, I got out of the car and went to the door. Locked. As I was getting back into the car, the shop door opened and a man propped it open, yay! I went in and the man was handing something to a customer (apparently the cookie shop shares the space with a printing business). He glanced at me and I asked about cookies (the shelves were empty). He told me "she" would probably be there at 2:00. I get that some small businesses run them a bit more casually than others but it's just not cool to post hours on their door and online and then not adhere to them. This isn't the first time this has happened...one time I drove from Chula Vista specifically to go here. The others times, I was in IB for other reasons so it wasn't a big deal. If nothing else, why not show your hours as (eg) "1:00ish or 1:00or so." ? Anyway, I officially give up and the one star rating isn't for the cookies, which I've wanted to try for years, but instead is for the unprofessional way this business is run. read more

Deb is super sweet and a good baker. I usually drive from National City just to get her cookies.

I love this place. Deb always makes me feel welcome and takes the time to come out and greet me, no matter how busy she may be. This little family bakery makes the locals feel right at home, and the un-locals feel like they're locals! The cookies are HUGE. I usually get the regular chocolate chip, but today I went for the Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip, and the Blueberry White Chocolate Chip. Oh-My- Gah freakin good. Paired with the hot coffee & creamer, I'm in heaven. As usual, the cookies are fresh, and bursting with flavor- the butter... the blueberries, the dark chocolate, salted caramel ...with the slightly crisp outer cookie, then you bite into the soft middle. Just the right mixture of taste and textures to keep you coming back for more! Yes, I ate both kinds at the same time. I couldn't restrain myself. I originally came for a breakfast bagel this morning. I had the scrambled eggs, bacon, and pepper jack. Very good, and good size portions! Stop in here for your next sugar fix, or breakfast, you will not be disappointed. read more

Was looking for a good homestyle baked cookie and found this gem! The person that helped me (Steve) was very nice and new all about his wife's cookies! I picked up about five different cookies and a vanilla cupcake w/vanilla frosting. The cupcake was so tasty! My mom had the coconut choc chip cookie and said it was really good. If you all are looking for a quick cookie fix you should try Deb's Cookie Jar! read more

Amazing customer service! Deb really went out of her way to make sure my Uber order was taken care of. And the these cookies are amazing! Definitely recommend! read more

So happy that places like this still exist THe owner is a lovely person, attentive and goes above and beyond her service to make customers happy. We tried 4 cookies and we loved them. They are home made cookies and feel like real home made not dry or hard, my husband and i enjoyed each one and we left very happy with our experience . Don hesitate to stop by and support small business. read more

Deb is quite possibly the nicest person I've met since moving here to California. I found her shop by accident while driving by one day on the way home. It's in an out of the way place. It's a small unassuming shop. The cookies are absolutely delicious and if you go in and you're wondering which one to try make sure that no matter what you try the one called the dark side. It's absolutely delicious and chocolatey without being too sweet. But even better than the cookies are her cupcakes. I haven't had cake this good in years. It doesn't have that heavy texture that a lot of homemade cakes have and her buttercream is light and I could literally just eat a bowl full of it. She's pretty much the best thing about Imperial Beach so far. read more

Good customer service, good size cookies, extremely sweet- overpowers real cookie flavors (I like sweet). Make sure you get there early or best flavors get sold out fast. We only got to try cookies. Chocolate chip was my favorite. read more

Lovely little shop. Delicious cookies, exceptionally kind owner. We went two days in a row just because it was so good. Will go again if I find myself in San Diego again. read more

Thank goodness for yelp! I came down to Imperial Beach to visit my parents in their new home and we were looking for food and the search results came up with this place and the high rating and the word "cookie" easily got me interested in checking it out. I was originally looking for a sushi or taco place but wanted to grab cookies before the place closed. After getting a glimpse and a whiff of the cookies and the rest of the menu I wound up staying. I saw the Deb's Massive Monte Cristo and thought "challenge accepted"! Ham, sausage, bacon, eggs, cream cheese, jelly, then more cheese inside two pieces of French toast :: drools :: amazing! I wound up splitting it to make room for the cookies which were also very fresh and delicious they sent well with the iced coffee. Service was fast and friendly and I could tell there were several people that were regulars there. I'll definitely be going back to try some other menu items and cookies! read more

Such a cute store with a very friendly environment! MUST TRY the almond chocolate chip coconut cookie (which got featured in San Diego's magazine in November 2018) and the white chocolate cranberry!! I'm not a big fan of coconut and cranberry but the cookies was amazing! I also tried the white chocolate butterfinger cookie which is also interesting to try. They gave my friend and I free samples which was nice! We got a dozen and the good sir that helped us gave us two free cookies (: I really admire this business and excited to come back to try the different flavors of cookies. read more

More like Deb's biscuits. Huge cookies but dry. I'd rather get a smaller cookie that was moist and tasted better.

Went here on a weekday evening about an hour before closing... a small mom and pop looking cookie shop, the gentleman behind the counter was sweet. By this time, there was still multiple types of cookies to choose from, but it was definitely limited.. they also have a breakfast menu. Anyways, we decided to get a dozen cookies ($18), and these cookies are HUGE. The cookies filled up a box you'd normally use for donuts. We chose chocolate chip, Oreos, peanut butter m&m, and snickerdoodle. The cookies we got (besides the snickerdoodle) seem to all have the same cookie dough base recipe... they're not overly sweet or chunky. I'm a major cOokie monster, I love Amy and all cookies. But I was a bit disappointed that the cookies were a bit dry and brittle... they fell apart quite easily. The snickerdoodle held just a bit more moisture. It may just be because we came so late in the day and they were sitting out in display for too long?? I would Love to taste these cookies fresh out of the oven. Otherwise, the cookies are nothing too fancy or gourmet, they have more of that homemade type taste, in my opinion, which is very endearing. read more

I came here to check out their cookies. As I entered, I was greeted by a friendly lady who was telling me about her business. She told me they were open since June 4. I've been meaning to stop by and I finally did on my way home. They had different flavors of cookies such as chocolate chip, white chocolate cranberry, oatmeal, Snickerdoodle, and a few other flavors. They also serve breakfast items. All the cookies I got were delicious and moist. My personal favorite is the white chocolate cranberry cookie. So good! My daughter tried the chocolate chip cookie and she gave me a thumbs up. I purchased 5 cookies for $5.00. Not bad. A dozen was $15.00. The cookies were pretty big in size and very moist. The lady was super nice and friendly. She will answer any questions. There was a couple of tables inside. I'm definitely coming back for their breakfast items. The lady also mentioned that I can place my breakfast order over the phone, so I can just come pick it up. So cool. I definitely recommend this place. read more

These are THE nicest people. my girlfriend and I arrived kinda late on a Sunday and they were getting ready to shut down. They really didnt have cookies in the case and the register had been closed. The man of (what I assume is) the husband and wife team, offered to give us free cookies. We offered to pay but they refused. We will certainly be back to support them! Oh and the cookies are incredible. read more

I found this spot as i was driving back home from see my Chiropractor and I just so happened to look to my left and saw this place and i was intrigued. This morning I went in and I was impressed. The cookies are the size of my palms! Cookies are 3 for $5 and i think $2 per cookie. All the cookies that i bought were really good but i would have to give it up to the chocolate chip. So simple but made perfectly. A "small" rather large to me cup of ice coffee is only 2 bucks. Staff is super friendly. 3 ladies working together, teamwork makes the dream work. Definitely a great place to check out in IB. Parking is limited but you can park on the street. Great hidden gem. read more
