Enjoy a gooey chocolate chip cookie on this sunny hot day
Gita G.

I love when I come across a great chocolate chip cookie, which to me is a decent round circumference and just the right amount of thickness not to thin, but not to thick either. My single cookie was perfection, and my only regret is that I had 1. I definitely will be visiting again

So how come no one ever told me about this? If you have never been here I want you to stop what you are doing and go immediately. I want by default because I wanted a snack and I was waiting for someone for a meeting at Barnes and Noble. So I had a White Chocolate and Snickerdoodle cookie. It was fresh, soft and hot. I ordered Ice-cream to go with them and it was delicious! I am so happy I discovered this. My tastebuds are so happy but the Rolls on my back are kinda upset. The one grievance I had was that they went up on the prices, but that was not displayed on the current price list and the cashier did not know how much anything was until she rung them up.

 Pretty pricey

In short, this store simply shows that only in America on a college campus can one get away with ridiculous prices on cookies, milk, and ice cream. The store is located within the Charles Commons building, which is owned by the Johns Hopkins University using it as student housing and hosting conferences. Perhaps this might be a welcoming addition to some, but the way I see it, it cheapens the very nice building. You often see employees sitting/slouching on the couches next to the store and talking/ behaving obnoxiously until 3am in the morning, which is when Insomnia closes. Are the cookies good? Meh, they are not terrible. Worth close to $2 apiece? No. An ice cream sandwich will cost you close to $8. Absurd - you are probably better off getting cookies from Subway across the street. Oh, to top it off, a small pint of milk in a plastic bottle is $3 and a bottle of water is $2.25... wtf no thanks I'll go to 7-11 and/or the vending machine They do offer delivery

I've tried the oatmeal & raisins, and the Chocolate cookies, both are nice. When the serve the cookies, everything is warmed up, and the Chocolate is kinda soft and melty They deliver and Open till 3AM!! Wish they serve coffee, so customers will enjoy that with their cookies

Small party pack: 6 cookies and 1 pint of ice cream.
Dawn C.

Ordered the small party pack (6 cookies and a pint of ice cream) with chocolate chunk cookies and peanut butter chip! Cookie dough ice cream with Reeses pieces on top! Super quick delivery, the cookies were still warm when they arrived. Ice cream was fresh scooped and in a pint container. Definitely quelled my cookie fix and sweet tooth!

6 cookies is shown as $11 but the picture says 6 cookies for $6. At the very least they could hide ripping off Ubereats orders.

Cookies are good but the service is inconsistent. I'm glad this location is open during the pandemic.

I decided to take a trip here for an off day, I seen this place on TikTok and I decided to try something new! The ambiance is very beautiful! If you'd like to come here to sit and do some work or host a book club this is definitely the space! I decided to try their vanilla matcha, their omelette and one of their vanilla pastries! I'll be honest the omelette was not good at all! I was expecting better but the flavors did not go together well! The toast that came with it helped a little but my opinion still stands, the matcha was good but nothing stood different from something you can get from Dunkin' or Starbucks and last but not least the pastry was not my favorite either. I don't know if it's my taste buds or I picked the wrong things but I wouldn't come here again. I think everything there is also an overpriced as well for it to be that bland.

Crab Tamago Sando 3.5/5: yummy and tasted like an egg salad sando with old bay seasoning. couldn't rly taste the crab :/ Crab Dip Bagel 4.5/5: this was worth the hype. we had soooo much filling in ours. the crab was warm and the sauce was so creamy and the corn was toasted well. i'll be thinking about this bagel a lot. the only note on that is that the bread part of the bagel was not very wow factor and was kind of tough Fig & Brie 5/5: i liked the crunch and flakiness of the croissant. fig was fresh and complemented the cheese well! Cute and clean interior with organized line outside. Kind staff!

We stopped by Doppio Pasticceria Sicilian Bakery for lunch with our two Grand-Loves (ages 6 and…read more10). It is a cozy, smaller spot, but the team moves really efficiently. We opted to sit inside instead of the patio because a rogue bee decided to bother the girls, LOL! The pizzas are made completely fresh to order. We got a Pepperoni Pizza for the girls and the Meat Lover's Pizza for my Wife(My BFF) and me (we swapped out the prosciutto and added onions). The girls absolutely loved theirs and knocked down 3 to 4 slices each! The crust had great crispness and held up firmly without getting soggy. The pepperoni and sausage brought tremendous flavor, though I preferred the Meat Lover's because the sausage and onions created that extra layer of savory depth. The crust edge was just a tiny bit darker than we normally prefer, but that was minuscule compared to the overall quality. Big thumbs up all around for both the food and the friendly service. Before leaving, we had to grab some treats from the bakery side to go: Cannoli: My Wife (My BFF) ordered this (fried shell filled fresh to order with sheep's milk ricotta, cinnamon, chocolate chips, candied orange, and pistachio). Classic and delicious. Bomboloni: An incredible fried yeasted doughnut filled with honey saffron pastry cream. The dough itself was so soft, pillowy, and fresh. The honey saffron filling is unique, light, and not overly sweet, my Wife (My BFF) wasn't as keen on that specific flavor profile, but I loved it. Cornetto: Essentially a giant, lightly sweetened laminated brioche croissant. Flaky, buttery, and light. We could easily eat these pastries on a regular basis. We're thrilled to have found another go-to pizza and bakery spot whenever the craving hits!

Didn't love it, but I think it's just not for me…read more Came on a Sunday morning, as others have mentioned it's very small inside but it's nicely designed with beautiful tile. We got 2 pastries and 2 coffee drinks. I got a lemon spritz espresso soda thing which actually was delicious! My husband got plain iced coffee which was also good. What I didn't appreciate was my drink being served in a soggy, soaking wet/condensing cup. They use paper to go cups. They need to figure that out, it was pretty rough to hold - collapsing and soggy, not a great experience. Our pastries were just okay - got the fig/creme filled big puff and a spinach ricotta pastry. Both were fine, a bit dry, and I've had similar/better things from Tous Le Jous, cafe dear Leon, and even ovenbird. These seemed maybe not so fresh. They do charge a 15% gratuity for all orders so we paid about $4 extra for a soggy cup and only okay pastries. Ultimately we just didn't love the experience and the cost. I'd come back to try the pizza and sandwiches but I will have low expectations.

Unfortunately, today's visit was disappointing. The young woman serving me wasn't particularly pleasant from the start. I asked whether the butter praline pecan was their only butter pecan option, and the interaction felt unnecessarily short. When I ordered a sundae and requested light hot caramel, she asked what kind of sundae I wanted, seemingly missing what I'd just said. Her responses came across as impatient rather than helpful. I could have overlooked the less-than-friendly service. Everyone has an off day. But getting to the bottom of my ice cream and discovering hair in it? That's another matter entirely. If you're going to serve ice cream with hair in it, the least you could do is be nice! Really disappointed. I won't be making a special trip back anytime soon. But judging by the lines they continue to draw, I suspect they'll do just fine without
