I had Levain cookies for the first time while I was in Chicago, and I instantly fell in love! I was honestly a little skeptical when I first looked at the cookie because it didn't look particularly soft, but once I tried it, I was completely obsessed. So, of course, when I Googled Levain and saw that there were locations back home in Boston, I was like, "Oh my goodness, thank goodness!" That being said, I have to say that the Chicago location was better than this one. I feel like the cookies at this location are cooked just a little longer, so they aren't quite as soft and chewy as the ones I had in Chicago. That's really the only reason I'm giving four stars. If they cooked the cookies just a little less, these would be top-notch, chef's-kiss, five-star cookies! read more

Crispy edges, gooey cookie? Indeed! At least for the double dark chocolate cookie. So good! Less gooey was the oatmeal raisin, but it was still good and Asian parent approved as not too sweet! The size startled them at first though! Lol! What a delicious treat from Levain Bakery! read more

I love that this NY chain has expanded so much. They legitimately make my dream cookies - slightly under baked on the inside with crispy edges, unbelievably ginormous, and incredibly rich. They are worth the hype. The cookies are like $5-6 but you're really buying a dessert for 4 people, or 4 different days. They freeze well too ;) No seating inside, but it's in the gorgeous seaport area so there is plenty of places to enjoy your treats outside. They also have other pastries, breads, savory items, and cookie + ice cream collabs but let's be honest you can't miss the cookies. The shop is cute and the pastries are arranged attractively. read more

First time coming here and it was a great experience! We got the original chocolate chip cookie and it was super delicious. Served just right warm and gooey on the inside with a semi crust on the outside. Just perfection. Staff was super friendly and gave us our order right away. Clean interior and very inviting ambiance. I love how they have swag for sale as well. Will be back here again soon when I visit Boston! read more

This bakery was introduced by my friends in New York. Happy to see branches in Boston! Oatmeal Raisin Cookie: Only large portion of sugar could make the cookie incredibly crispy. I could even feel the delicate, sandy crunch as I bit into it, like stepping softly on the fresh snow. But as the saying goes, "one coin has two sides", it was somehow way too overwhelmingly sweet for our Chinese appetite. My regrets for not following the waitress's advice to grab some tea. read more

Staff is always friendly. Shop is cute and well kept. I normally don't like chunky cookies but these ones surprised me! I got the signature chocolate chip and walnut cookie and was so happy with my purchase. Perfect combination of a nice crispy exterior that melts into a chewy, chocolately center. I've also gotten a dirty chai and a regular latte from this location and was satisfied both times. read more

Smells and tastes like a warm hug!! Wow, this spot is dangerously delicious and consistent! The service is spot-on, and while I've only ordered for take-out, there are probably 10 seats total for dine-in capacity. Would recommend eating with a scoop of vanilla ice cream :) Parking can be tricky in the area. read more

My sister introduced me to Levain cookies a few years ago and we've been hooked since then. Every place we visit that has a Levain bakery makes it a must visit. When I can't get to the bakery, I door dash it :) I'm not a big dessert person, so I cannot finish a whole cookie by myself. But I cannot resist tasting it! The fragrant smell of butter and chocolate is too enticing to ignore. I especially like getting a fresh cookie from the bakery because it's served fresh and warm. Although I can warm it up in the oven or microwave at home, it taste way better when I've just gotten it form the source. I hope to try the other goodies on my next trip to a Levain store. read more

This is a famous cookie shop based in NYC and the location here in Seaport is beautifully designed and the smell of delicious cookies when you walk in is mesmerizing! They have a variety of cookies to choose from including their most famous ones like chocolate chip walnut, dark chocolate peanut butter chip, & oatmeal raisin. I opted to grab the seasonal lemon cookie and chocolate chip walnut. Service was quick and friendly and I had my cookies less than a minute after paying. Both were tasty and filled to the brim with chocolate chips and lemon chips and they were soft on the inside and chewy and crunchy on the outside. I love how big the cookies are and they are easily shareable. If you are a fan of cookies, you have to come check out Levain bakery! They also have merch that you buy can buy on the left side and seating on the right side of the bakery. read more

Love a fresh baked Levain cookie! I had my first taste of Levain in Boston at the Newbury location and had to stop at this newer Seaport shop. The fall chocolate chip cookie was delicious-large chunks of chocolate chips with warm fall spices made the best combination. Large cookies with crispy edges and a chewy texture inside. Yum!! read more

The cookies at Levain Bakery are exceptional. The aroma of freshly baked pastries greets you upon entering, setting the stage for a delightful experience. The chocolate chip cookie is the highlight. The cookie has a slightly crispy, golden-brown edge and a soft, gooey, buttery-rich center and with a generous amount of chocolate chips. The staff is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Levain has a cozy, yet bright atmosphere. Levain Bakery offers an unforgettable cookie experience. You'll want to visit again. read more

Bakery back east. Had a dinner meeting at local restaurant. On my way I found this back to my hotel. I walked in and they were still baking. Their aroma from their cookies filled the room. I walked up to counter see photo of what I saw. I got two cookies and when I got back to the hotel they were still warm. So good. I went back to get some before my flight back home! read more

Levain cookie review is straight-forward- decadent & delicious! From the basic chocolate chip to the speciality flavors they have all been good. The Lemon white chocolate, toffee chocolate, black & white, and Pb chocolate limited editions are totally worth it and the toffee hot chocolate I tried at my recent visit did not disappoint. These are thick, rich, cookies- I usually eat about 1/3 and save the rest in the freezer. The Seaport location has been consistently less crowded than the original Newbury street location when I have popped by which just makes it feel more accessible- but both are very nice. They have been offering more fresh-baked bread/rolls and a couple of sandwiches including this delicious butter &jam baguette. Both locations I have been to are small, mostly in and out, but the Seaport location has a few counter area/high chair spots to enjoy the treat onsite. They are also doing bread and some nice-looking savory sandwiches now... several people were there buying the fresh Boules which you can ask to have sliced. Levain is worth the hype and is a great special treat or speciality gift you can get wrapped up in a nice box. Check it out! read more

Finally got to check out new Levain Bakery in Seaport! It is up to Levain decor aesthetics, of course. I went on a Tuesday evening so there was no line at all.

Lots of greeters at the door! They were handing out super cute totes-see pic! Everyone was friendly and happy to be there. It smells delicious when you walk in! I treated myself to 4 flavors - one is for my hubby! The cookies are cooked perfectly! Crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. Choco chip walnut is their classic - can't go wrong! The coconut caramel is super delicious- this is my fave! And the double chocolate peanut butter pairs perfectly with my coconut caramel crunch Kauai coffee. Their holiday cookie is a chocolate peppermint - I'm not a fan of mint chip but I know my hubby will love it! Definitely will be coming back!!!! Welcome to the neighborhood! Update: day 2 of eating these, I've decided the chocolate peanut butter is my fave! read more

I love love love the cookies, obviously. The baguettes and breads are also great! Today I went in for a cider today and decided to give the tomato flatbread a try... the cider was great but I would not recommend the flatbread. Very greasy and its really just baked parmesean with baby tomatoes , which almost still sounds delicious but I was super super disappointed. read more

I finally had the opportunity to bite into the infamous LEVAIN cookie. I ordered a Caramel Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookie and it was everything everyone said it was. Crunchy on the outside, moist and soft on the inside. It had the right amount of caramel and coconut so you knew you weren't just eating a chocolate chip cookie. The service was great as it was served perfectly warm as if it just came out of the oven and not sitting out. There's enough chairs and tables to sit and chat. Paired with a cold glass of milk this was heavenly. This location closes at 10pm which is perfect for late night sweet cravings. read more

I love Levain cookies. But they need to listen to their customers carefully. I had one order. Banana chocolate chip slice. I left the store went home only to discover they gave me a cinnamon slice. There was no line. I was the only customer. I couldn't go back and exchange it because it's not worth my 11 mile drive. But when I stop by again I'll tell them. It's infuriating because it's not like I was changing my orders. One job. One slice of bread. How can they get that wrong. Ugh! read more

Insanely overrated. Got the chocolate chip and the oatmeal raisin. The texture is weird- like a scone. These are not cookies. They are a dry, crumbly mound of dough, butter, and sugar. Hard pass. read more

THANK GOD BOSTON HAS A LEVAIN!! I went to my first Levain in Chicago and have been craving their cookies ever since. I was so glad to stumble upon this cookie shop in Seaport.

It was very busy but the service was great and the employees were super helpful for those that have not been before. read more

I've loved Levain since going to their New York City locations years ago. I'm glad that they are thriving in Boston. I usually get their chocolate chip walnut or the oatmeal raisin. All of their cookies are huge! They look like rocks, but they are soft and gooey on the inside. The only downside is that I can never finish a whole one and it seems like a waste. Maybe the freezer next time? In any case - they're expensive, but they really do feed like 2-3 people. Enjoy! read more

Another location for Levain's cookies popping up in seaport! I was glad to come during their soft opening period and was pleasantly surprised. Compared to their Newbury location, this one is bigger, maybe double the size and has a few bench seating spots to enjoy your cookie or to warm up with some hot chocolate. The service is quick and the decor on the walls is nice. I got a peppermint chocolate cookie and my friends got their hot chocolate to help escape the cold. The cookie was not only huge, but soft and chocolately. I'd recommend getting a few cookies to try and sharing them with someone. They also sell other pastries in their display up front, which I'm sure are just as tasty as the cookies. Overall, a nice pitstop if you're walking around the seaport area. read more

Super cute stop in the Seaport. Amazing cookies! Ordered two, chocolate chip walnut and coconut caramel chip-the coconut was the winner. After paying I inquired about the cookie of the month-coffee toffee....the employee said he would throw one in the bag for free to try! Much appreciated seeing these are $6 cookies! They have breads, coffee drinks and other beverages too. I will try the bread next time. The other cookies are in a bag on my kitchen counter and every time you walk in you get a whiff of cookies. Bathroom is a bonus. Only a few stool seats but when the weather is nice there is plenty of seating throughout the seaport. read more

I went to Levain's Bakery for the first time today at 10am. Wanted to try the chocolate chip walnut cookie. I like the service and the establishment was well kept. The cookie I didn't feel it was freshly made today. It was hard and dry like it was a left over from the day before. I went early thinking I would get a good baked cookie since they open at 8am but it was the opposite and that's the reasons for the 3 stars. read more

I wish they had more vegan options. For all the various baked goods they have, one cookie isn't sufficient. It is pretty damn good though.
