This review has been a long time coming! I was in town for a week, and it had been years since I last had Ricki's Cookies. Stepping into the bakery feels like entering a cookie wonderland--so many flavors to choose from, and they even offer samples! The customer service is always top-notch. Everyone is friendly, helpful, and welcoming, and the owner is genuinely kind and takes the time to chat with customers, which adds a personal touch to the experience. I had the chocolate chip stick with no nuts--hands down, the best cookie I've ever had. My friend tried the mixed flavors and oatmeal, and my dad went with the pecan chocolate chip. Every single one was delicious. This bakery never disappoints. You'll find yourself coming back for more! They also make amazing cookie cakes for special occasions. The space is clean, well-kept, and full of charm. If you're a cookie lover, this is your go-to spot. Please support this local gem--you won't regret it! read more

Not quite understand how ordering ahead works here, but the cinnamon rolls and cookies are absolutely delicious. I was told you need to order the cinnamon rolls ahead online, but couldn't figure out how to do it. I called them at opening time on Friday and they were able to set aside an order for me. They were absolutely delicious. The bakery is chalk full of all these yummy goodies, I truly don't think you could go wrong with anything. I can't wait to visit again! read more

Went to Rikki's to pick up some Challah bread for my aunt. I was so happy to get her a great special! Two braided loaves for ten dollars! Forgot to take a picture of the Challah Bread. Smelled amazing. I picked up an Almond poppy seed muffin and a few cookies for myself and a friend. Service was awesome. Rikki is so nice and patient. The small shop is down a little alley way in the parking lot of a strip mall. It is well visited as she had steady business as I looked around. There is plenty of parking there too. The shop is quaint and easy to pick up items from the shelves or refrigerator. I will return and purchase some more of her wonderful baked items. They tasted so delicious. read more

I literally found this place because it smelled so good from the Halloween store around the corner and I followed the scent into the store. Best happy accident ever! They were making cinnamon bread and I was able to buy one straight out the oven... I'm ashamed to say I ate almost the entire loaf of bread before I even got halfway home lol. I also got their cookie bars, which were amazing. 5/5 definitely recommend! read more

I dunno... The cookies seemed pretty not-done when we bought them. Seriously, we popped them in the oven for another few minutes and they turned out perfectly after a second cooking. Really tasty. Do people like undercooked cookies? read more

We got an assortment of desserts and it was all delicious! Service was quick and the shop was super cute!

There is an abundant selection of fresh, delicious bakery items. Ricki's Chipsticks, Challah and cakes are all Five-Star worthy; I have never been disappointed in any of my purchases. I do recommend stopping by before noon, since this bakery closes at 3:30PM most days. read more

Best cookies you will ever have. Chipsticks are so delicious. Challah is also amazing!!!!

Best cookies I've EVER HAD! And I bake and buy a lot of cookies. My sister ordered us some and I had to hide them from my family members (and still managed to eat a whole tin in two days). Just made french toast with Ricki's chocolate challah and wow. read more

As we try to do while traveling through our big beautiful country, we looked to enjoy the town's kosher options. A little research led us to Ricki's Cookies. There was an enormous selection of fresh and refrigerated desserts, parve pleasures to please any and all palates. In addition to the delicious treats, we enjoyed delightful conversation with Rickie and her employee. read more

Found this place a few months ago and a week hasn't gone by with me stopping by to try something new. Nothing I have had here has caused me any disappointment which in today's era is a very rare thing. I think I will be a customer for as long as they are open. read more

Ricki's's treats are AMAZING!! I lived in Memphis for nine years and truly miss being able to purchase Ricki's treats at Kroger. For my birthday my friend ordered me a blueberry cake and a cookie sampler. The blueberry cake was moist and delicious. It is the texture of a coffee cake or muffin. Sweet, but not too sweet. Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or a dessert! The cookies were also very good and still fresh after shipping. I am partial to the chipsticks, but I also loved the sugar cookie. I would highly recommend sending a Ricki's gift to yourself or a friend. It you are in Memphis it is worth a trip to her little shop, but if the shop is closed most of the area Kroger store have a good selection! read more

Wouldn't be Purim without Hamantaschen from Ricki's. The chip which's are also totally addictive and who doesn't love a great cinnamon challah? read more

I was first introduced to Ricki's in 2003. A vendor brought cookies to our office for Christmas. Even before I moved back to Memphsi whenever I was I town I would stop by. I'm not big on sweets and cookies but these chocolate Chipsticks are amazing! I prefer them cold (she usually only has frozen ones late in the day). The owner is very friendly. read more

Excellent customized, huge Happy Birthday chocolate chip cookie. Of course her challahs and assorted cookies are the best too.

these cookies are amazing and the couple that owns this spot is adorable! highly recommend.

Ricki's baked goods are all scrumptious. From chocolate cookies to carrot cakes to pizza, her products were a highlight of our trip to Memphis! read more

Oh emmmmm geeee!! You need to stop whatever you are doing RIGHT NOW and head on over to Ricki's Cookie Corner. They have been around forever (founded in 1980 out of Ricki's Kitchen), but I've only recently discovered this local gem and I'm absolutely kicking myself. They have sold almost 9 million of their famous Chipstick cookies! Which makes sense, because they ship all over the country! This is a woman owned, multi-generational family business, which makes my heart sing because I'm allllll about supporting our local mom and pop shops! While the bakery was founded making cookies and challah bread, they now make brownies, cakes, pies, cinamon rolls, and sooooo much more! Oh! And all of their products are made non-dairy, which is great for kosher-keeping or anyone with lactose dietary restrictions. read more

This place is pretty fantastic and the owner is great. It's not what I think of when I think bakery because they don't have the usual display of baked goods for you to pick random things from. Instead, they have bread to order and treats to go in little containers. They do have samples so you don't end up with a box full of something you dislike. I bought some slider buns here after having it at a restaurant nearby. They're super affordable but they only cook those on Thursdays so plan ahead. You can freeze them to keep them good until the day you plan to use them. They also have two versions of many (if not all) of their pre-packaged goods: with nuts and without nuts. These are also clearly labeled. My roommate, who is deathly allergic to nuts, greatly appreciated this. Loved: - Original Chipsticks - Slider Buns Like: - Apple Cake - Sugar Cookie Ok: - Ginger Chipstick read more

They are a little hidden in the Eastgate Shopping Center. You can't see them off poplar, but they are between the two buildings. (Wish I remembered what two stores, I will update it soon!) The store itself isn't too big. They do all the baking there so that takes up most the space! This is a family owned and operated business and that really speaks volumes about the product as a whole. Each member of the family that works here is so kind and personable. They really take a lot of pride in what they do, and it shows in every aspect of this place! As for the cookies. You guys. Best chocolate chip cookies EVER. They are cooked to absolute perfection. They are just the right amount of gooey in the middle! Seriously, I have never had a cookie that nailed that aspect of a cookie every single time. Every. Single. Time. She also makes some cookies without the chocolate chips. It tastes just like the batter. Sugary and wonderful! Her bread is also divine. DIVINE. I honestly don't know how she stays so stinking little! She sells her bread to a few Krogers around town, but hopefully more will start bringing her in! Long story short. Go there. You will not be disappointed! In fact, you will probably get hooked like I did :)! read more

Rickis cookies...you are so deserving of my 200th review! Aside from bragging lol this place is amazing! If you have read my reviews you know I love sweets. So I was introduced to Ricki's as apart of a yelp event and I am so happy. This lady has mastered the art of a chocolate chip cookie. Wow they really are so good. Apart from her famous chocolate chipstick,she makes fresh bread, other cookies, and pastries from cinnamon buns to cakes and brownies. Rickis is a family owned business and you sure can tell they love their products. They even sell their products across America and people pay the $15 for shipping. It just proves that they have a good product. Plus customer service is phenomenal. They are the most genuine and kindest people I have met so far and love their craft. I tried so many of their goodies at the event and let me tell you they were all great. I cannot wait to go on a Wednesday and try their pizza. However, be advised that you have to call for a time slot in order to order their pizza. Once you try Ricki's you will become a fan and get addicted. Just saying the truth so go try them out! read more

I've tried their salted caramel, double chocolate chip, and their chocolate chip chipsticks. They are all fantastic, but the regular chocolate chip chipsticks are to die for!! Perfectly done so that they are soft and melt in your mouth. Highly recommend heating them up for a few seconds before eating them. It just adds to the experience read more

I just received a tin of cookies from Ricki's Cookie Corner as a gift and let me tell you, these cookies are AMAZING!!!! Do yourself a favor and order these for your family, friends, and neighbors! SOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!! They shipped them all the way to California and they were a wonderful treat! Thank you so much! read more

This is our favorite bakery hands down!! Ricki is so kind and inviting no matter how busy she is when you visit. The chipsticks are beyond delicious and just soft and sweet and firm enough to be a fan favorite. Her challah bread is perfection and can be eaten right out of the bag, warmed up, excellent french toast and even sandwiches! read more

Wow, I am new to Memphis and I drover by this bakery on my way to Kroger and did not think much of it at the time other than the location seemed sub-optimal as its hard to see from the street. Then I saw the products displayed at Kroger. I thought what could be so good about these products that Kroger would display them; are the products actually good or do locals blindly support them? The next thing that crossed my mind was that I should at least try those chipsticks as they are featured in the logo. They seemed sort of expensive at the time compared to Kroger cookies but I took the gamble. I was not disappointed, those chip sticks are amazing! The entire box is gone after one day. I'm not the best at describing food, but it's that delicious soft & chewy cookie dough tasting chocolate chip mixed with vanilla and a variety of nuts. They were worth every penny we spent. I look forward to trying some of the other products soon. read more

I love this place! Their cookies are AMAZING. The chocolate chip cookies are fantastic. They also had chocolate chip cookies without chocolate (it sounds weird, I know) for a limited time a while ago and they were so awesome. When I make chocolate chip cookies from scratch, I usually go easy on the chocolate chips, so they were great. Picture kinda like a sugar cookie with brown sugar in it instead of just white sugar. Oh, and the challah bread is fantastic, of course. I love the regular challah bread. If you've never tried challah bread, you have to. It's buttery and slightly sweet. If you have and you want something a little different, get the cinnamon challah bread. I'm a french toast junkie, and for me that is the perfect bread to use for it. I like a little bread with my cinnamon when it comes to french toast, so that bread plus a cinnamon custard is a match made in heaven. The perfect french toast. But it's also perfect just by itself. They also have challah rolls, which are great for sandwiches or with meals. They have two sizes, so you have that choice to use either way I mentioned. I've also tried their chocolate marshmallow brownie which is great. It's incredibly rich (although I expected it to be - it's a brownie with marshmallow fluff and chocolate frosting), so be forewarned that you'll probably want a huge glass of milk with it. I'm sure the rest of the brownies are the same as well. The one thing I cannot stress enough is the importance of pre-ordering the baked goods online beforehand. If you just show up at the shop, especially if it's around a holiday, prepare to be disappointed. They sell out of stuff quickly, so you might go only to find out they are sold out of everything (seriously, everything). The service at the store is great, too. Everyone is incredibly friendly and helpful. They are always happy to describe menu items and offer suggestions. read more

Ricki's is a little bakery hidden in the Eastgate Shopping Center. If it wasn't for the fact my vet is next door, I would've never known it was there. I walked in one day after stopping by the vet's office, and the smell was absolutely fantabulous!! I had a hard time choosing what to walk out with, but went for something that looked safe -- Ricki's Chipsticks (no nuts, since my daughter has an allergy), which are simply chocolate chip cookes in a somewhat of a stick form. The pack I bought had both regular chocolate chip, and chocolate chocolate chip (with white chocolate chip pieces) One bite....HEAVEN. They simply melt in your mouth! I have decided I must go back one day and try her other goodies. And, for the Jewish community, everything is Kosher! Ricki's cookies....best little hidden treasure in East Memphis! read more

I won a gift card for Ricki's at a silent auction and I stopped in and tried the sprinkled sugar cookies, the chocolate chip cookies, and I purchased an assortment box as a gift. Both of the owners were very friendly and helpful and I absolutely LOVED the sprinkled sugar cookies and the chocolate chip cookie. Both had a very good taste and texture. The location is a little tricky to find, but I will definitely be back to try more. read more

I tried the cookies they sell at Kroger and was absolutely in love! They are delicious. I bought every kind they sold at Kroger and finally decided to visit the store. I asked if they had a whole box of a certain kind of cookie and the young woman working the counter was pretty rude to me. She told me if I wanted a certain kind of cookie I should have called the day before. When I told her I wasn't planning on buying cookies the day before, she said something like "well, you should have planned ahead." I'll probably stick with buying their cookies at Kroger from here on out. read more

Your life is not complete until you try French toast made with the cinnamon raisin braided challah bread! Everything else Ricky sells is also awesome. read more

I stopped by here while I was waiting for my dog next door and I was not disappointed!! I got the chocolate chipsticks and they were SO GOOD!! I I love supporting small business and these are so worth it! read more

I wasn't that impressed. I had been waiting to get by there before the holidays. Bought the sliced challah and an assortment of cookies. They didn't seem that fresh maybe previously frozen. Not a fan of the cookie sticks. Sorry-but had high hopes but a bit disappointed. I'll have to try again sometime. read more

I realize that everyone loves this place, but I wasn't thrilled. But maybe you will be. People love cookies in many different forms. I like them baked, well baked, to the point of being crunchy. This is the opposite of that. If you love cookie dough and wish that all cookies were as close to that chewy, battery, gooey feel as possible, than this is a 5 star stop for you. To me, it was great recipes, under crunchy. To be fair the breads are amazing and I'd give them 5 stars if I hadn't wanted a cookie. read more

THE. BEST.COOKIES. EVER. I just love Ricki's Cookies! Last week was the first time I have ever been in her shop. I have always just had people give me the cookies as a thank you or a little happy. Her shop is so cute and quaint. With the location that it is in you would not know it was there unless you stumbled upon it or someone told you where it is. I was hosting a family gathering at my house and needed a yummy quick dessert so naturally I thought about Ricki's Cookies. They were a hit! Everyone kept saying "wow these are delicious" and "where did you buy these? they are soooo yummy" and of course I told them! She also makes tasty breads and other yummies! If you have not gone...you need to!! Heard it from me first! read more

I guess I went on a bad day. The peanut butter and double chocolate chipsticks were awful. No flavor at all it was like eating a floured clay. read more

This is my new go to spot for last minute gift giving. I learned quickly that I should place my order in advance. However, they were accommodating on my first visit (since I didn't call ahead) and quickly prepared a tin for me take. The cookies are fresh, chewy and yummy. Their "store" is more of a bake shop. It is nothing fancy but gets the job done for picking up orders. It is a bit hard to locate as it is tucked in the side of the shopping plaza. read more

I could eat my weight in everything they bake! This is my go to anytime I need to bring something for a special occasion.

Love the chip sticks!! We get them shipped all the time. I recommended throwing in microwave a bit to get them warm and gooey. I don't have a sweet tooth but chip sticks are amazing. read more

Ricki's chipsticks are seriously the best cookies I have ever eaten. They are chewy and soft. I am a health eater and I don't like most baked goods because they are too sweet and unhealthy, but her chipsticks are amazing. Amazing. Amazing. The rest of the stuff in her store is ok to me. She has a lot of cakes and other cookies. Her challah and rolls are delicious as well. Though to me I wouldn't eat them as a regular bread because they are so sweet and made with white flour, and I want to eat something healthier for a bread. Anyway, I wrote this whole review for the Chipsticks, which are Ricki's gift to mankind. read more

My wife and I have been coming here for years. We loved the Challah and I loved the cookies. We just found out (read the labels), however, that the challah contains polysorbate 80 and Mono and diglycerides. Also, the cookies have corn syrup and mono and diglycerides as well. This may not have been the case when we first started going there, but apparently it is now. That is not what you expect at a local bakery, and definitely not what one should expect paying high prices. There definitely are more acceptable substitutes for butter than crap/fake food ingredients. So, today I'm making challah and cookies from scratch. Too bad and a shame. By the way, these fake food ingredients are the type that you find in Twinkies and other hostess baked goods. read more
