They're definitely a bit pricey, but since we were in town, we decided to try all of the classic flavors. Honestly, the chocolate chip was the standout -- rich, gooey, and just really satisfying. The others didn't have much flavor and were kind of missing that oomph factor we were hoping for. The shop itself was clean, and the guy behind the counter was friendly and helpful, which we appreciated. We stuck to the classics this time, but maybe next visit we'll branch out and try some of the other flavors.
Insomnia cookie is the perfect late night snack. It's open late for those moments you get cravings. They have such an assortment of cookies from your classic to your seasonal flavors. I ordered the snickerdoodle and the apple cider donut. Both freshly baked and oh so delicious. They also serve ice cream at this location. The store is small and has a few seats inside at a high counter. The employee was cordial when she took our order. I love a good insomnia cookie.
Man... talk about a late night snack. Even though I knew this was going straight to me getting love handles, I couldn't resist and I was so happy I did. Getting ice cream on top of any of their cookies is to die for. Especially this location is smart, being next to bars / restaurants it is a fantastic place to hit up after any of your events. Plus, the service was too notch - the service honestly gets a 10/10. I didn't get his name, but he knows who he is, and I would literally go back just to support him & their crazy amazing cookies. If you've never been to Insomnia Cookies, you are definitely missing out. Even if it's out of your direction, make the trip! Highly recommend. Personal Review: 9.1/10
Ok. So after countless mention of this from my daughter I decided to stop in here. The place is very small but I guess this would be fine as most people who come would just order and take their cookies/ ice cream to go. I ordered few of the chocolate chunk cookies. I asked the young lady if these are freshly made everyday. She stated that it is pre-made and we simply throw it in the oven to bake. I would have been content if the price of each cookie was not $3.30. Nothing spectacular about the cookie. Bit small for the price. Yes it was warm, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside but would not come here again for an overpriced average cookie.
I used to love Insomnia Cookies, but the business has really gone downhill in the past few years. I ordered a 10" deluxe cookie cake with a "Ur my fave" message on it, and with buttercream frosting piped around the message and under it. I opened the box, and not only was there no piping on it, but there was also only about a teaspoon of frosting holding the message onto the cookie. This is unacceptable, and I feel completely scammed out of over $40 for this f-ing joke. I called the store and complained, and the woman only said that they were phasing out piping the frosting, even though the app still shows the product the way it was before, as of today. I asked her if they were at least lowering the price, and she said that it was a financial/corporate matter. I am extremely disappointed in what used to be my favorite place to get cookies. Until you change your policy or stop jacking up the price for what have become mediocre, pre-made cookies, I will not come back.
We left Bacino's and walked down the street, on advice from our friend who NEEDED an ice cream sandwich. I waited a bit and got a double chocolate mint cookie. It was a little crowded but the line moved quickly. The staff was very friendly but a little distracted. The cookie was great, just enough chips and mint, maybe a TINY bit stale tasting! I should have heated it up, I did not eat it there (VERY small space, made for take out) so maybe that made a difference. I was glad (!) to see the calories listed next to each cookie. They're good for sharing, esp the deluxe cookies, which I will get next time.
We got insomnia cookies and it was delicious. It was crispy from outside and soft from inside. It was mouthwatering, warm and good.
My daughter wanted to stop in. We all got cookies. To be honest, the cookies were average. The place is small, and was packed. The milk was overpriced. What am I missing? Three contributing factors as far as I can tell 1) Next to DePaul 2) Next to bars that are open late 3) Delivers cookies until 3AM. IMO, you have to respect a place that delivers cookies until 3AM, now that is devotion. I'm thinking the go to here for the late night munchies is probably the cookie/ice cream sandwiches, kind of like if Ben & Jerry's delivered ;)
Soft, sweet and sugary and everything nice is the way I'd describe Insomnia's cookies. I've been to other cookie exclusive bakeries and ended up disappointed because I think my cookies are the best thing since sliced bread and none could compare. Well, Insomnia Cookies definitely rival my own creations. They are seriously so good! My friends and I got a mix of the Deluxe Cookies yesterday - Smores Deluxe, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup and Triple Chocolate Chunk. All were so friggin huge and so flippin good, I can't even pick a favorite. The cookies are served warm & nice n gooey just the way I like them. They put them in a cute pizza style box for you to take them to go. They are open and deliver cookies until 3am!
So the tiny lil irony to this is i was seeing my cardiologist and run up on this place. I'm really not a sweets person. HOWEVER, ya just gotta see these gems. Nothing to the place actually and if you not looking for it you might drive right past it. After a clean bill of health from the heart doc, I treated myself some peanut butter, chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin and macadamia nut cookies. What was that? Ya think I over did it? Pictures worth a thousand words
I've heard good things about Insomnia Cookies and I read that they recently opened a store in Lincoln Park. I came by with a couple of my friends and we got a dozen of their cookies. We got everything and while some were good, the peanut butter cookie was so raw. I am a big lover of cookies that are soft on the inside, crunchy on the outside. But this one fell apart and left a huge grease stain on the parchment paper. I liked their snicker-doodle, white chocolate and chocolate chunk. I was a little bit disappointed by how small they were. I still think Potbelly's has a better sugar cookie though. Must be those huge sugar crystals.
I am one of the biggest sweet fanatic and insomnia cookies are way more sweeter than I expected. I bought a box of dozen to share and plus it was $10 deal so why not?! I just wish I was warned that I just eat the cookies RIGHT AWAY because after a little while, it hardens. Unlike other people, I like for the middle of my cookie to be at least soft and that's not what I got from insomnia cookies. This place would be awesome if you are planning to eat it right there and then but taking it home, it's not an ideal thing to do unless you like hard cookies. On another note, the staff was really friendly and helpful since it was my first time there, I was sure how the ordering process works.

Our Karaoke group was leaving Brando's for the evening on 6/26/26. One of us saw this place and was raving about their cookies so we went there for a treat. Walk in and it's busy in there. The young lady behind the counter was very friendly. I ordered the regular sugar cookie to try. It came out fresh and WARM, OMG! I savored every bite! I wish that cookie was bigger like some of the other cookies offered. What a great concept of offering warm cookies! I promise you, something has started with me here. I'm craving them right now! Definitely will be back - I want to try the White Chocolate Macadamia cookie next! Great job Insomnia Cookies! A+++! read more

No matter what city I'm in, these cookies have never disappointed me. Late night sugar dispensary offering up warm treats in a quick and friendly manner. Both traditional and deluxe cookies were available, though not all the flavors. Decided on the S'more Cookie ($3.60) and a bottle of milk ($3). Cookie is warmed up - crumbly soft with intense chocolate flavor and the right amount of marshmallows inside. Milk is your standard fare, necessary with the rich baked goods. Weren't that many people on a Sunday night, so we were able to get a seat inside and enjoy. Always a good decision to stop in after a few drinks. read more
I stopped by while on a walk. I did not regret coming in. I ordered double chocolate mint and the deluxe chocolate peanut butter cup. I was not expecting them to be served warm and gooey. What a wonderful surprise! They were gone in two seconds. If i am ever in chicago, I'm coming back for the oatmeal raisin! read more

Okay so it was a Saturday and a nice day so my girlfriend and I wanted to head out for dessert, especially getting out and being inside all day due to Corona Virus mayhem (plus we need to do something lol) You have to pay street parking. There was no line due to Corona virus. The staff were friendly and helpful. I selected the cookiewich with moosetrack ice cream with chocolate chunk and sugar cookie as a sandwich. Wish they had more flavors but the flavor I selected was really great! I do like you can select two different types of cookie to make your cookiewich. Overall the dessert was fantastic! I would come back here for the cookiewich. First time being here and I like the first impression of the place. I would not be surprised if there was a line during the summer time with no virus going around lol. Cheers! read more

Had the mint chip ice cream sandwich with a peanut butter and double chocolate cookie. First, I noticed the chocolate morsels were perfectly warmed, a+. Then, the sight of the broken peanut butter cookie underneath, made me sad, but I hoped the taste would cancel the look, and it did. The eats are on point and made up for the presentation disaster served on a paper plate. 3 stars all for taste Happy that this is open till 3am Geared for the young kids/students in the DePaul area read more
This is crazy... but when I went to Insomnia a couple days ago, the workers were able to match my face with my previous review. They apologized and I spoke mainly to Max and he gave me 3 free cookies + an ice cream scoop to make up for that day! He said it should have never happened and I should have been warned beforehand that they can't make the cookiewich which I asked for last time I came here. He talked to my sisters and I the entire duration we were there up until we left (they weren't busy). He even asked if I wanted anything else (on top of what he already gave me, but I declined). Then I I asked him if he would get in trouble for giving me the cookies and ice cream.... Max and his co-worker said that anytime they have a bad incident, they try to make up for it. I brought up the fact that most of their 1-2 star reviews are due to delayed deliveries. They explained to me that when customers order 16 cookies and they only have 12 at that moment, they have to make another 4 which takes 15-20 minutes. And then when they are really really busy, they just can't keep up with the orders no matter how fast they work mainly because they can only fit so many workers back there and they aren't like Dunkin Donuts where they keep their cookies sitting on the shelf. They try to make them fresh, otherwise they aren't keeping their word. Something else to keep in mind if you're coming on a MONDAY NIGHT. They get their ice cream deliveries on Tuesday. When we arrived, they didn't have cookies and cream, cookie dough or vanilla ice cream. So just be aware they may not have your ice-cream on Monday nights. read more

Its Simple: Cookies Baked Fresh! Served Warm! Open until 3am - DAILY! Great people with great service! YUM! PS: they have ice cream, too read more
The four stars is for being open until 3am. A friend of mine posted a picture on Instagram which was a cookie with ice cream in the middle. He had the snicker doodle cookie with I think vanilla ice cream. As soon as I saw the picture, I needed to go here. My friends and I went on a Monday night. I ordered the snicker doodle with cookie dough. It was pretty good. It definitely fixed my sweet tooth. read more
