A great place for cookie lovers. They got a lot of tasty options to choose from. Cookies have a nice crunchy exterior and chewy core.
The cookies here are softy, chewy, and delicious! They have a variety of flavours (with fun names) that changes seasonally, including Asian inspired flavours like ube and black sesame, and some cookies have fillings. I've tried 8 different flavours so far and loved most of them, with the black sesame being my favourite. The pistachio one was good, but a little too sweet for me. There was one time when some of the cookies I purchased were a little undercooked, and didn't taste too great. However, after I put them in the air fryer, or oven for about 3 minutes they were perfect, and I got to eat them warm. The staff here are friendly, patient, and had no issues with me taking my time to time to decide on which flavours to purchase. The place itself has a very basic set up, but smells great from the fresh baked cookies.
This place is "da bomb". Very creative flavors, moist, large and delicious! The more cookies you buy the cheaper too. I highly recommend the matcha mochi, and all other flavors. Get a box of six cookies. You will be very happy.
Omg yum! Yes these cookies are so soft and come in I think 10 flavours at a time with soft center of filling! I tired a few different ones with friends, and we all enjoyed it. I like the outside of my cookies to be crunchy, but that's just me so that's why they got a 4 star, but the staff are friendly and the store in clean. It's quick to pick up your box of goodies and honestly all of the cookies I've tried were tasty!
Dropped by my favourite cookie shop and got: Ooh Bae: 5/5 Continues to be my #1 favourite cookie ever. I love the ube jam filling, I could probably eat it alone. The cheesecake flavour isn't that strong but all the elements of this cookie beautifully blend together. Blueberry cheesecake: 4.5/5 The lemon cheesecake filling compliments the blueberry cookie dough incredibly well. I love how the lemon flavour adds another element of flavour. Cinnamon bun: 5/5 True to its name, the cinnamon swirl cookie and its vanilla cream cheese filling is delicious and not too sweet like your normal cinnamon buns. Moon cookie: 3/5 This cookie's dough is black sesame and it has a salted yolk custard filling. The black sesame was actually quite hard to taste. The salted yolk custard filling is an interesting creation and I enjoyed trying this cookie combination out. Thai Milk Tea: 4/5 This Thai milk tea was filled with thai tea chocolate ganache. The Thai milk tea flavour was muted a bit by the chocolate. Service was quick and sweet. I did come right at 1200 and their cookies were not yet at room temperature so when I got home, they were smushed together (which is ok!). I also love how they have a rewards system and their prices are fair for the quality and size of their cookies. I will return for more ube cookies!
Ended up getting a box of cookies from the mothers day pop up at square one. I was super excited because of the unique flavours available, and I heard very good things about Night Baker. I got two of the Ube, one Pandan coconut, two Oreo Milk Cookie, and one CC3. They were good, but comparable to other cookies I've had before. I agree that it is not too sweet and therefore suitable for my taste buds. I actually think the cookies taste better cold after leaving in the fridge, but that is a personal preference. Top 2 is definitely the coconut pandan and the ube. They were both rich in flavour.
This place has been one of the places that I've always wanted to go because it has gooey cookies! I really wanted to try their ube cookie (purple yam)! As soon as I entered, I was greeted by the warm smell of cookies baking! I didn't know what to order, so I got a 12-pack cookies to go. The friendly cashier put some of my order (ube cookies) in another box as they just came out fresh from the oven and were hot. I appreciated that she took the extra step to make sure that all my cookies stay in great shape as I head back home. I was told to heat the cookies in the microwave for 10-15 seconds before eating. I am used to eating crunchy, hard cookies bought from stores, so heating them sounded a bit strange. However, after taking the first bite, I realized why they had to be heated- each cookie was warm and soft, the flavour exploding in my mouth! Wowza! Highly recommended! Each cookie is big, so get one or two to eat for yourself and get a 6 or 12 pack and share them with your friends! :D
Seriously the best cookies EVER. I've tried a lot in Toronto and my mom is trained in pastry making from culinary school. Highly recommend and need to share these with friends! Flavourful, Not greasy, not too sweet, perfect texture
If this is how the cookie crumbles... then give me a dozen! LOL I'm not much of a sweets guy but when I find something I like, I really really really like it! So... running around College Street and eventually found a place to have dinner. It was sidewalk dining in around 13 degree weather (to my US peeps, that's Celsius). Though not the best temp, it was still pretty comfortable and doable. After opting out of dessert, what to do as I needed a finish to the night off right. Noticed that I was pretty close to Ossington and there was a lot of things said about The Night Baker. Well it was night, and I wanted something baked! LOL! Let's put the hype to the test! As I walked in, I was actually overcome by the sudden hit of sweetness and cinnamon in the air. I had to step outside to clear my throat - seriously! Wow! That is a lot of flavour and that's just in the air! I wonder how much is packed into a "disk of delight". :) They has some really amazing creations and many were sold out. The Milk&Oreos + S'mores really got my attention. As well as, the Ube. Did I like it? Let me put it this way... I'm quite happy that there are many miles away from me! If they were next door, I'd be broke and my blood sugar levels would set new worlds records! So yeah... really good! I was happy to do what I can to support local businesses - not just tonight, but every time I need to go out. If we don't support them today, they will not be here tomorrow. That would be a terrible shame! Especially, since I like fresh fun creations - I don't want to have a stale package crap cookie from a clown! Yeah... that would be tragic!!! :( I got a half dozen of these beauties. As cookies go, they are pretty expensive. Some may say totally worth it, I'd say for me, it's a treat and not a daily one. Make a run out and do something cool to help out your fav place today! CHEERS!
Best gourmet cookies all around! Not too sweet and full of flavour. My biggest issue is always when the cookies are too sweet but it is not an issue here. My favourite is the ube I can eat 10 of them. It literally melts in your mouth. I really enjoy all the rotating flavours and the different twists to them ube, matcha etc and you can't go wrong with the classics as well. Will def be back!
I like my cookies a little burnt that's the only thing I would change. But it's an easy fix. I put my cookie in the toaster before I eat it and it gets a thin slight burnt to it Mistachio -he matcha flavor is present it's not overpowering but you can definitely taste it so delicious Choco oat- even though this is an oat cookie it is still very gooey and chewy it's not strong in oat I felt that the chocolate was stronger than the oat still very good the chocolate is rich and tasty the classic - is your most basic cookie that they have it's a chocolate chip cookie where they add some walnuts and sea salt and it has their signature chewy gooey texture Gingerella - yes it was so good it's a ginger cookie however it's soft whereas most ginger cookies are hard and it's filled with a Nutella filling I loved every minute of it it was a little bit messy because of the Nutella inside and it is extra soft and broke in the box Ohh Bae - I didn't know what to expect. It was very goey but didn't have a strong distinct taste. It tasted like plain sweet cookie dough with a goey centre
Pandan coconut 5/5 Ooh bae 4.5/5 - so much ube flavour it's insane Appledoodle 3/5 Mistachio 3/5 Sans Rival 5/5 - super tasty almond cookie with a creamy sweet cashew nut filling Food for the gods 3.5 - DELECTABLE but one of their sweeter cookies bc of the dates, door toffee bits & walnuts I prefer their filled cookies over their regular (but extravagant) cookies. Not bad price for the unique asian-inspired flavours and they are ALWAYS ON POINT with their cookie softness and gooeyness without being overtly sweet. I enjoy their cookies by microwaving for 8 seconds and with my unsweetened almond milk hehe LIFE HACK: For those that live downtown core & can't venture out to their West end location, the restaurant Tala (on Dundas st W in front of the AGO) carries NightBakerTO cookies regularly!
I stopped in at The Night Baker last Friday and bought a couple Classic cookies for Gord and I. The cookies were so delicious! Soft and bursting with salty chocolate flavour!

I always love a good dessert influenced by Asian flavours. The Night Baker definitely shows its roots from the Philippines with rotating flavours, including their permanent "oh bae" which is definitely my new cookie bae. All of their cookies are filled, so caution to those who might not be ready for a surprise on the inside. I tried 5 different flavours, Oh Bae, Coco Pandan, Blueberry Cheesecake, Mistachio, and Campfire Smores. I would definitely say, if you have to skip one, it would be the Smores, not because it wasn't good, but it wasn't really as special as the other ones. The Oh Bae has an Ube Halaya (jam) filling and a must-try for any Ube fan. The Coco Pandan is incredibly fragrant and it's not too common to see Pandan flavoured cookies in TO. The Mistachio is a combination of my two favourite green flavours (Matcha and Pistachio) so it's a winner in my book! My absolutely favourite (surprisingly) is the blueberry cheesecake. The filling was a perfect balance to the sweet blueberry and cookie layer. They have safety precautions in place at the location, only letting 4 people in at a time. You can also get a delivery from them to get your cookie fix. Definitely a pandemic picnic staple in my book! read more
I came here roughly at around 3pm and there was nobody in the store besides the owners...which mean I could hog all the cookies haha kidding! The owner was extremely patient and gave me recommendations on what cookies were good and such. I also saw a sign that they were having a 2 for 1 cookie deal as I was told they were changing flavors for the season and wanted to get rid of the cookies they've made already which I am not complaining about haha. I found the cookies ok but it did not "wow" me, although my sister did enjoy them very much. read more

The BEST cookies I've ever had. Super soft and chewy and held up really well even after a few days! The ube one is to die for, and all the flavours are not too sweet! read more

I came here randomly to pick up some cookies expecting them to be the greatest because of the reviews. We got a pack of eight cookies for around $23 and I wasn't that impressed. They weren't bad but they weren't the greatest I've ever had. Coming from a family with lots of bakers, I think my standards are pretty high with cookies so these just weren't it for me. For some of them, I couldn't tell if they were intentionally mushy or if they just weren't baked thoroughly on the inside. I will say that the cashier that checked us out was really friendly but other than that, I don't see myself coming back. read more
I ordered 6 different cookies and most of them were pretty good! My favourites were the pandan and the cookies and cream oreo one. Milo and classic were my least fav. However they weren't so delicious I could finish a whole cookie, I just ate a third of each flavour and then gave the rest to my family. Usually I devour cookies easily but idk, these were good but just missed the perfect cookie mark somehow - maybe they're a bit too cakey/soft, and the flavours aren't strong enough in some cookies. I prefer a chewy/crispy cookie texture and these are not that at all, so if you're picky about the texture then I wouldn't recommend these. However if you like all cookies like me but just have a preference, these are worth trying at least once. They also taste much better warmed up. Price-wise they're a bit expensive now, 6 for $18, but they're a decent size and have unique ingredients so I can't complain. Overall I'd recommend this place - the milk n oreo cookie was the best so maybe try that! read more
In a city where Craig's Cookies is King, it's lovely to see another cookie contender take a stab at the throne and succeed. While I do love Craig's Cookies, the novelty has worn off and I wonder just how many chocolate chip cookies I can eat from there. The Night Baker has a range of flavours and they were all really solid. These are two bite cookies, they're quiet hefty. I tried six flavours and will rate them from my least fave to most fave: Pretzel and m n m: least fave, this was a super heavy cookie, if you like peanut butter though you'll like this. Original: simple, walnut, good but doesn't stand out. Matcha pistachio: lovely matcha flavour and smell, really nice, they clearly use real matcha in baking Strawberry jam filled: super yummy, right mix of flavours S'mores: chewy ooey and chocolatey And my favourite was the cheddar cheese with cheese filling. Reminded me of a cheddar cheese muffin from Mmmmuffins circa 1989. I love it. Would eat it every day all day. Six cookies were $15. read more

These cookies are the stuff you dream about - maybe that's why they call it the Night Baker. They're soft, chewy, flavourful and rich (but not Kim K-rich - just rich enough that you can keep eating them). It's a dangerous game, but Night Baker almost always wins. Do yourself a favour & play the game, I have yet to meet someone that does not love these cookies. read more
Walking along College on this warm and sunny Sunday, we decided to pop in for a snack. We ordered two cookies: the matcha pistachio and the chocolate with marshmallow (campfire s'mores). Both were delish! Chewy, moist, good ratio of "stuff" in each cookie. I was actually surprised with the whole pistachios in the matcha cookie! I'd definitely come back and try other flavours. I think it was $5 plus tax for 2. If you buy 6 or more, no tax. read more

Never had a chance to physically drop by the store and was surprised to see it on ubereats. Ordered the box of 6(milk and Oreos, campfire s'mores, mistachio, ooh bae, piñata colada, pb &b). Cookies are definitely different from your usual retail boxes cookies as these were relatively dense and cake like texture. Personally I like my cookies to have more of a crunch texture rather than a sponge. Loved the gooey texture. read more

I've been on a cookie craze lately and I was recommended this place by a friend. I loved their Ube and milk n oreos cookies the most, but all the other flavours were also amazing. The cookies were nice and soft. read more
I don't usually have much of a sweet tooth but this cookie shop had such good reviews that I had to pay them a visit to see what the hypes all about! I like how they have variety from their permanent flavours and experiement with seasonal cookies often. We tried the ube and easter cookies. The ube (purple) is supposed to be their best seller, and I can see why. The cookie was soft, and the filling inside wasn't too sweet. But I actually liked the easter cookie (green) better, there was oozy melted chocolate and a few pieces of crunchy wafer in the filling. What i like about these is that they aren't too sweet, theres a good amount of salt to even out the sweetness. However, I do prefer thinner cookies that aren't so doughy but they were still good. If you like sweets, I would definitely recommend a visit! read more

I wanted to send my mother a special treat for her birthday (COVID-19 has sadly kept us from seeing each other) and after searching several dessert shops in Toronto, I came across The Night Baker. The flavours intrigued me straight away and I knew my mom would get a kick out of them. I placed an order on their website and even though it's currently an uncertain time for deliveries, my mother was super excited when the door bell rang during our FaceTime call at the scheduled time. The delivery was a no-contact drop off, which I appreciated. I asked my mother what was her favourite but in all honestly, she couldn't choose! She loved them all. I also put a quick note when ordering that it was for my mother's birthday and they put a little birthday sticker on the front of the package. How sweet! :) I can't wait to visit the shop in person soon enough! read more

Great tasting cookies, but a little too sweet and dense for me. The fillings pair perfectly with the cookie, and I really enjoyed the texture. I bought the 6 pack and was only able to finish 1 1/2 cookies because of how rich they were. This is definitely more of a once in a while treat then an everyday thing. Will be back in the future for when I'm craving something sweet! read more

As someone who enjoys a fresh, moist and decadent cookie, I was looking forward to The Night Baker which I had been told produced some of the best cookies in the city. In what was a most difficult choice to make (try choosing only two cookies from the wide array of flavors presented to you), I went with the Beggo (Nutella filling) and the Campfire Smores (at 2.75 each plus tax). These were fresh, warm, full of flavor and decadent, and the moment I finished my last bite, I was already debating on going back in and getting a couple more (but alas, I'm trying to eat well and barely managed to stop myself from going in and walking out with a box of 6). I stopped myself on that day but am already looking forward to my next visit. A must try for any lover of cookies! read more

The Night Baker - Toronto. Delicious cookies. I loved the Oreo one, carrot cake, Red Velvet, Sans Rival and Peppermink crinkly . I also tried the Ube (purple jam), matcha, s'mores, Easter eggs, and cheesecake one. read more
Was happy to see the Night Baker at the christmas market in the scotia plaza! Been following the cookies of night baker over instagram for the longest time and was excited to try when we got the chance. When we were at the xmas market, they only had 4 flavours remaining: Smores, chocolate chip (dark chocolate), pistachio matcha and gingerbread nutella. First off, the price of the cookies were a tad big steep.. 2.75$ for one or 15$ for 6. Since we wanted to try a couple, we opted for the 15$ for 6. The cookie itself was not very big, but thick. The chocolate chip one was very grainy and did not enjoy it very much. The first thing my husband said was if the cookie was gluten free lol!!! It had a crumbely texture and just was not my cup of tea... The smores one was not very sweet and was not filled with marshmellows as i wish it would... the gingerbread nutella one was delicious. Had a good amount of ginger taste and had a good amount of nutella! FInally, the pistachio matcha was such a disappointment!! That was one that i was really looking forward too... did not have pistachio OR matcha flavour to the cookie.. it was very subtle... the only thing i could taste was the white chocolate which was not what i wanted. My coworker also bought half a dozen and did not enjoy the cookies as well.. she even asked if these were considered " healthy" cookies lol!!! Overall, for the price we're paying i expect to have a more higher quality cookie but was truly disappointed with what we got. Don't think i will be returning again. read more

Mistachio and OOh-Bae Cookies (Love the gooey, chewy texture but a bit too sweet for me) -- Photos of these thick and gooey cookies from The Night Baker keep popping up in my suggested posts and finally had a chance to try them! I got the Mistachio, a matcha cookie with whole pistachios and white chocolate chips, and the Ooh-Bae, a ube cheesecake cookie with a ube jam centre. These cookies are probably the most gooey and chewiest cookies I've tried (and who doesn't love that! ), but they were a bit too sweet for me. Out of the two, I prefer the Ooh-Bae because the matcha and pistachio flavour didn't come through as well as ube. If you have a major sweet tooth and love cookie dough I think you would love these! read more
Just walking by the neighbourhood and saw this little gem's soft opening. I had the Classic (dark chocolate, walnuts &sea salt) and Ooh Bae (Ube cheesecake, ube jam filling). Both were really good, soft and chewy kind of cookies. Cookies were very balanced, not too sweet and the descriptions were spot on. This might be my new cookie drop by. Will come back to try the rest soon. read more

I really loved their cookies! I like cookies that still taste a bit like cookie dough, and Night Baker does their cookies this way. My hubby and I got 6 to share (for $15, it was a pretty good price), and my favourite ones were definitely the Ooh Bae and Mistachio. I thought both flavours were really unique and yummy, while still giving me that cookie dough taste that I love. Just thinking about the cookies as I write this review makes me want to go back to Night Baker right now! read more
