Antoine's Cookie Shop

When I lived in the Palo Alto area, this was my favorite cookie shop around. I was so so excited to hear they were opening up a new location in SF. I love all their cookie flavors and will continue to support this delicious cookie shop. Yum 😋

Great cookies, been visiting their shop in San Mateo for years. However, this location’s staff needs warmth or customer service training. No greeting, no service, rang my items up yesterday (12/21) Sunday afternoon around 4pm, and that was it. Literally, had no words of exchange.

It’s finally open! Great cookies like I like them, crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. Price is just right at $2.75 a cookie. Owner was very nice and this is a great addition to the neighborhood!

Super good cookies! They also have a microwave inside to warm them up, although they’re so fresh and yummy even not warmed up. They also sell milk and have a few indoor seats

Absolutely loved this cookie shop! 🍪 From the moment you walk in, the smell alone is worth the visit. The cookies are always fresh, soft in the middle, and perfectly baked with just the right amount of sweetness. There’s a great variety of flavors, so whether you like classic chocolate chip or something more creative, there’s something for everyone. The staff is super friendly and makes the experience even better. You can tell a lot of care goes into every batch—definitely a go-to spot whenever I’m craving a treat!

The cookies are fine—very sweet, lots of sugar, with different flavors. They’re priced around $2.75 each. I would recommend the macadamia if you're into crunchy nuts with a mild flavor. At first, I thought this was a young woman starting a small business, but when I searched for the company on Google I learned it’s actually a chain based in San Mateo. The girl working there was super sweet and kind. Given that, I was surprised by the setup. There’s a lot of floor space, but minimal tables or chairs, which makes the store feel uninviting as a customer. I’d encourage the owners to walk into the space, look left and right, and really consider why it’s laid out this way. The previous business made much better use of the space and felt far more welcoming. With some thoughtful improvements, this location could be much more inviting even if it's just grab and go. I also understand it's probably a work in progress. Would I come back? Yes—especially since I was given a free cookie in email and if I need to use the restroom while in the area it's right there and it only costs a few dollars and I get to leave with a cookie. Score! 😜 Thanks for listening to my feedback.

Manager or owner sits in front of the door for smoke breaks. Counter is always messy from the window, and interior has absolutely no personality. Cookies are ok but not worth the price when ^ ^

Alright here’s the breakdown… $2.75 a cookie. 5 bites each. So like 55¢ each bite. Not saying that’s insane, but for a cold cookie I’m not sure it’s worth it. Like genuinely. It’s a cookie. Friendly employees, clean store, great location! There was nothing that was like “wow this cookie is changing my life”. Definitely better than store bought cookies, but I wouldn’t go back unless my blood sugar was desperate.

Drove by and noticed they were finally open! And a parking spot was there! Definitely tasty cookies. Toffee was my favorite but the Honeycomb was a very close 2d

I usually always make a stop to the San Mateo location when I'm there. So I'm so happy that there's finally one in the city! Came in on grand opening day expecting a whole ordeal, but nothing. Just a couple signs on the window. The staff didn't really advertise anything. No special decor or anything. A bunch of cookie boxes prepped and to the side of the counter. I did notice they're starting to sell cookie dough. That's a nice option. Got two cookies - one cookies and cream and one toffee. Cookies were good. Congrats on the new location! Will return soon.

I've been waiting for them to open for a few months now--so happy to be making this review finally! The person working there was so nice and happy to answer any question I had. They were also super patient with me as I chose which cookie flavors to try. There's 3 tables for indoor seating. Things that are also there but I didn't take a photo of: cookie dough in a fridge section, the menu ($2.75 per cookie and $32 for a baker's dozen) and their drink selection (milk and water). Here's what I got and my review of each flavor. Fresh cookies/Day of cookies: - chocolate chip: not overly sweet, chocolate is in chunks which was a nice surprise. not too hard on the outside, but soft inside. - toffee: super soft but holds its shape. the toffee doesn't get stuck to your teeth which is always a plus. - honeycomb: an advanced chocolate chip cookie. the honeycomb flavor is subtle but the crunch is noticeable. this chocolate chip cookie actually has chips instead of the chunks like the regular one has. Day old cookies (all of these flavors came in one bag--pictured): - peanut butter chocolate: super soft despite being a day old. not too overwhelmingly peanut butter. - white chocolate: not bad but not something special either. hard exterior and soft interior. - dark chocolate: chocolate chunks again. at first i couldnt tell if it was dark chocolate but then it hits you hard. definitely not a dark chocolate fan but if you are, this is perfect for you! - semi-sweet macadamia: not super sweet, similar to chocolate chip in that respect. macadamia doesn't add much other than crunch. - walnut: slightly salty which was a nice surprise. other than the crunch, not something hugely different. I didn't get all of the flavors but from the ones I got I think toffee is the best. Peanut butter and regular chocolate chip would be the other flavors I'd get again.

The City has AHHHmazing bakeries, some with bomb cookies but not everyone has $5-$6+ to drop on one cookie on the regular. OFC, there's a $10 exception for the schlong cookie in the Castro. *wink wink* I'm a big fan of Antoine's Cookies and always bring back some cookies when in the PA area. The owner, Antoine started baking cookies in his home in 2013 and opened his 1st location in 2016 in San Mateo. And, now his Antoine's has a location in the city at former Woodhouse Fish (4th location). C O O K I E / F L A V O R S * Chocolate Chip * Toffee * Cookies 'N Cream * Snickerdoodle * Honeycomb * Peanut Buttercup * White Chocolate Macadamia * 66% Dark Chip * Oatmeal Chip * Walnut Chip * Semi-Sweet Macadamia $2.75 per a cookie. Baker's dozen available. Cookies are freshly baked about every 2 hours. Leftover cookies are sold the next day at a discount. And, there's a microwave for you to warm them up. While they're all good, I'm basic so my fav is the 66% Dark Chocolate Chip. The cookies are crispy and chewy around the edges while soft and moist in the center. Nicely buttery and not overly sweet. Plenty of melty Guittard organic dark chocolate wafers. Compared to Anthony's (my other fav), Antoine's cookies are a wee bit thicker and softer in the center. There's several tables to enjoy your cookies. Parking is a pain (you'll be circling) so take public transit or a rideshare. Overall, happy to see Antoine's Cookies expand to the city. They're delicious, great quality, and most importantly affordable!

I happened to stop in on their soft opening day while walking in the area. It wasn't too busy and got helped right away. Everyone was friendly, it's clean inside, and felt organized. We tried the dark chocolate chip cookie and peanut buttercup. They were both good in texture and flavor. Size was a bit smaller than other shops but price was more reasonable.

Clean and spacious cookie shop on a busy corner. They were nice with samples! I went during their first day soft opening so they didn't have day old cookies, but seems like a great deal. The staff is hard working.

Glad I don't have to drive down the peninsula anymore for these cookies. Love the semi sweet macadamia, PBC, and 66% dark chocolate. But honestly, I would eat any of their cookies. Came on second day of soft opening and noticed the cookies slightly crispier and a tad smaller than their San Mateo location. Crispier is not a bad thing, everyone has their preference in cookies. It was still very good and tasty. Will come again. Antoine was there to help guide/train new employees. Nice corner location across the street from Safeway, street/meter parking.
