Cookie Jar 1226 Forest Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10310

"Once again, being on Forest Ave. Treated myself to a dessert at Cookie Jar. It is a very clean,very fun atmosphere and never disappoints in fresh baked,delicious tasting cookies"

"If you're on the hunt for the ultimate bakery experience, look no further than this gem. The cookies? Absolute perfection. Each bite is a heavenly blend of gooey centers and crispy edges, guaranteed to satisfy even the most discerning sweet tooth. And let's talk about their coffee - it's the ideal companion to those delectable treats. From the first sip to the last crumb, my visit to this bakery was nothing short of delightful."

"Consistently my favorite cookie shop, they make the best rainbow cookies (each individually coated in chocolate.) The brownies are great if you want a chocolate fix, I especially love the salted caramel brownies. They also have great hamentashen and Italian cookies if you want something lighter. I haven't found anything here that I haven't loved except maybe the cookie/brownie. I prefer brownies to be gooey and chewy, while I prefer chocolate chip cookies to be thin and crispy. When you combine them you get something that's neither and it just doesn't do it for me (though if these types of combos are your thing I hear they're very good here.)"

"I had the pleasure of visiting this cute little bakery on my way to do some shopping. Immediately in awe of the lovely display of cookie jars along the length of one wall of this place. One cannot help but to be captivated by this whimsical display. Perusing through the sweets, I see quite a few unique selections. I decided to try strawberry and lemon flavored cookies. There were also seasonal ones like a pumpkin, Nutella tarts, chocolate chip and an assortment of other flavors. Once back home, I decided to start sampling my selection. The strawberry, in my opinion, tasted a little tart. Lemon as well. Each cookie that I tried, aside from pinoli, kind of had a sort of a shortbread consistency. There is a subtle sweetness. I wouldn't categorize the cookies here to be like something one might expect to find at an Italian bake shop. It is definitely very different than that. I don't know if I will have a chance to return but if I can, I wouldn't mind trying some other things because I like variety."

"This place has a wide variety of all type of unique cookies, cupcakes, and milkshakes. I love that they put a label with the name of all the items. They also serve Coffee and Frozen Capps as well, You could sit down inside if you want to have your deserts right away. I’ve been coming to this place for years and the cookies in the cookie jar are amazing."
