    Just what my sweet tooth needed. I got the vegan birthday cookie + sugar cookie, and also the cookies and cream cookie (my favorite out of the three) it was warm perfectly chewy and just slightly crunchy on the edges. I WISH they had vegan ice cream! Even a standard vegan vanilla bean! PLEASE! Think about use dairy intolerant people! And the vegans

    Cookies 'N Cream cookie and Double Chocolate Chunk cookie

    I was lucky to snag a front row parking spot in a 10-minute loading zone, so I could quickly run inside. There was no line when I entered, and the girl at the register was very helpful in making decisions about what cookies to try. I got the cookies and cream and double chocolate chunk cookies, both of which were warm, soft, and sweet. The inside of the shop is connected to a larger building, but it was quiet and empty when I went on a Tuesday around 6:30pm.

    Ah, Insomnia Cookies. There's definitely a nostalgia factor for me. When I was in college, Insomnia Cookies was on campus. It was always tough to resist a late-night snack. To my surprise, as I walked to PHX Arena, I stumbled upon Insomnia Cookies. While I didn't have time to make a pitstop as my event was starting soon, you know what happened. I stopped by after the show. Service (4/5): Service isn't a big part of the experience. You order at the counter, you get your order right there, and you can either dine in or take it to go. Quick and easy. Ambiance (3.5/5): This location has a modern look to it and a decent amount of seating, both inside and on the small patio. The cookie shop is attached to a skyscraper, so you can also sit inside the building if you would prefer (which is what I did). Drinks (N/A): Cookies only for me on this visit. Food (3/5): To my surprise, Insomnia Cookies has expanded its offerings since I was in college. They have more cookies, and they even have ice cream. Since it was relatively late, I kept it simple: I went with the triple chocolate chip specialty cookie. If you order a specialty cookie, that means it's going to be a bit more expensive. And their cookies aren't cheap. But they are served warm, which is always next level when we're talking cookies. Here was the problem. The ends of the cookie were overcooked. So instead of that perfect soft chewiness and melted action you get on a perfectly baked cookie, this one was hard on the outside. The interior was still good, but some of the cookie wasn't up to standard. Which, for a business like this, is clutch. Maybe how the cookies are baked is a wild card, but nonetheless, it is tough to say no to warm cookies.

    This was my first stop into Insomnia and we really enjoyed it! Would I say the best cookies ever..no but they were really good and priced great. I was hoping to try their 3 limited time flavors but they were out of all 3. Bummer!! I went with the deluxe 4 pack where you can mix cookie and brownie flavors. Our favorite was the chocolate chip brownie and salted caramel deluxe cookie. They were served warm as well. I would definitely stop in again if I have a sweet tooth!

    Stopped by after jury duty to try the vegan cotton candy ice cream that's is pictured on the app and the vegan fried ice cream cookie. They did not no longer had the ice cream but the cookie was available. The counter person was kind in telling my options and I got some fresh baked cookies to go. This is a great cookie spot that is definitely needed in downtown Phoenix

    Confetti Deluxe

    The Cookie Monster got to my cookie before the picture!! This cookie was so good! Not too overly sweet which is hard to find sometimes. I never liked crumbl cookies for that reason. There's a nice selection to choose from and between the m&m cookie and the confetti cookie, I opted in on the confetti. I had no regrets! Crispy edges and warm center. Perfect way to top off my dinner. The cashier was suggestive and very patient. The group before us took soo long to order, kept changing their order and ran in circles with him and he stayed calm and collected. Kudos to you! The shop has a small sitting area and your choice of drinks in a separate fridge. They are open late which is awesome!

    First time here and it was great! Cute little spot with mostly outdoor seating. We ended up ordering a brookie with ice cream and it was a good mixture especially with the fresh, warm brookie!

    Best cookie ever!
    Tia R.

    I absolutely love this location! The cookies are always so moist and fresh. I am always welcomed and greeted by an employee. The location is very clean. 10/10 recommend this location! PS MY FAVORITE COOKIE IS THE CONFETTI DELUXE

    The entrance was a little confusing since what appeared to be their main door was locked but another entrance leading into a lobby area with a second entrance for them was open. Other than that the employees were kind and quick. And we love their cookies, they were tasty and warm as usual. Coming here always reminds us of living in NC and making a late night trip for cookies after a day at the beach so the nostalgia might make us a little bias but we'll definitely keep coming back here.

    We were having a day out downtown & decided to order cookies as treat via Ubereats pickup on Sat Jun 1st before 5p. We were confused right away because the door outside was locked & the sign was not on. We were thinking Insomnia was closed but saw a person walk out w/ cookies through another entrance. We found the building to the entrance of Insomnia, placed our order via the Ubereats app & went inside to pickup our order. I noticed right away this location is very small because all you see when you walk will be the menu, ice cream, register & seating area. We have been to their other location in Milwaukee, WI which is bigger & cookies are on display as well as the ice cream selections. Once we walked in; the employee came out from the back & grabbed our order. Our cookies were so delicious. A tip to make sure the open sign is lit up & also have a sign on outside of the door if it's locked so customers are aware to go to the other entrance.

    S'more cookie with cookie dough ice cream.
    Emma N.

    This place was good. I got the ice cream on a deluxe cookie. The cookie was a s'mores cookie with the cookie dough ice cream. The cashier was nice but it was only them and it was busy. There was only outdoor seating but it was hot out so that wasn't an option. This location was in a building and there was seating in that lobby.

    Super 6: Chocolate Chunk Brookie, White Chocolate Macadamia, Double Chocolate Chunk, Classic with M&M'S, (2) Chocolate Chunk
    Jet C.

    For that late night sweet cravings, these are the perfect choice! The cookies are freshly baked and were still warm and the chocolate chunks were very gooey. If that sounds like your perfect kind of cookie, then you won't really have a wrong flavor choice. It is a small ish location with a small team and they did such an amazing job because it was a busy post-concert rush and they were bombarded with orders but they did it so well I was very impressed by them. I also got some scoops of ice cream because honestly, the cookies are just perfect for them!

    Double chocolate chip me please!!!

    The cookies are delicious and warm!!!! The staff was very polite and the price was just right!

There isn't any indoor seating, so this is more of a grab-your-ice-cream-and-go kind of place. After being out in the Arizona heat all day, we didn't mind one bit! My friend got a scoop of peanut butter pecan in a pretzel cone, which I thought was such a unique combination. She said it was really tasty, and I have to admit the pretzel cone definitely caught my attention. My daughter went with peanut butter ice cream in a waffle cone. The waffle cones are made homemade right there, and they also make their cookies in-house, which made everything feel extra special. I ordered a salted caramel sundae with butter pecan ice cream, and let me tell you--it was amazing! It was the perfect combination of sweet, salty, and creamy. My sundae also came with a cookie, so of course I had to try it, and it was so good. You could definitely tell it was freshly made.

What a great custom menu with lots of creative choices for ice-cream, ice-cream sandwiches, shake and floats, coffee and coffee desserts. Custom rotating flavors that we tried and sampled as we decided. Love how there's a secret back entrance to the ice cream parlor from Windsor Cocktail Bar next door. This is part of a cluster of good restaurants of different types along Central Avenue in Uptown. Parking available right in front of the entrance as well as around back in a private parking lot. I was so tempted by several items on the menu, but since I had just had a large lunch, I chose to try a single scoop of the Vietnamese coffee ice cream. So delicious and I loved the tiny specks of coffee. Hubs got a double scoop of strawberry ice cream, and my son got a strawberry shake. We all really enjoyed the interior and decor of the ice cream shop and the high-quality and good flavors of the ice cream. Service is really great here. The ladies were really working hard and going as fast as they could, and it didn't look easy scooping the large scoops of frozen hard ice cream. There was a line out the door on the Saturday afternoon that we showed up that moved quickly.

Ultimately this doesn't matter to me as I just want the ice cream. Today I was on my way to work and decided to treat myself to a coffee. Knowing that they're vegan, I thought non-dairy milk would be included. Nowhere was I able to find which milk was included in the price- so I asked for oat milk. I was charged NINTEY CENTS (.90) for an upcharge. Rather than saying oh it comes with soy milk, or hey it's a .90 cent upcharge, the barista just added it on no questions asked. I had reviewed the menu online and in the extras it does not include oat milk, which is why I assumed it came with it. My coffee ultimately came out to $9.16. What a joke. I will definitely not be coming back here for anything besides ice cream from here on out and even that is a hard maybe. I wish more places had pricing integrity- their website doesn't reflect it and neither did the barista. *edit to add the coffee is extremely sweet and milky, tastes more like sweet milk than a latte :(

    A Nostalgic, Must-Visit Dessert Destination in Old Town Scottsdale…read more Our party of six visited the Sugar Bowl for dessert following a friend's birthday dinner. Upon our arrival, we were accommodated immediately and seated without any delay. The parlor features a wonderful, nostalgic aesthetic reminiscent of the late 1900s. Its menu is remarkably expansive, offering an impressive variety of options that goes well beyond what one might typically expect from a traditional dessert establishment. The service we received was patient and polite. While one of our table's orders was initially overlooked, the staff corrected the mistake instantly as soon as we brought it to our server's attention. As the name implies, the menu leans heavily into decadent, sweet treats; those looking for lighter or tart options like yogurt variations will find limited choices, but the indulgent selections are perfect for traditional dessert lovers. The surrounding neighborhood adds significantly to the appeal, offering an excellent Old Town atmosphere filled with art galleries, historic shops, and artifacts. If you are visiting the nearby Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA), enjoying dinner in the area, or simply taking an evening walk, I highly recommend stopping by the Sugar Bowl for its unique historical charm and experience.

I considered several options in Phoenix area to review, but I decided to go with the iconic Sugar Bowl in Old Town Scottsdale.

They have a bar area and standard seating. I remember I first went here when I was in high school in late 90's/early 2000's. Ice cream was always top notch. I used to get the Buster Brownie, which was this big brownie sundae with vanilla ice cream, goeey marshmallow topping, whipped cream, & cherry on top. It was awesome! I loved that way back then. I got lunch there once or twice; pretty good sandwiches, but the real highlight is the ice cream. My most recent visit was in Jan. 2022 with my dad. We decided to pop in for ice cream. It was as delicious as I remembered.
