I’ve been a very loyal customer since 2009 and they COMPLETELY changed the recipe and shape of cookie. The flavor is not even close to what it used to be, before making this cookie different. No sea salt on top or that rich browned butter with brown sugar flavoring. I will no longer spend the HIGH price tag for these. I am very disappointed with this company. What a let down. My whole family does not enjoy them anymore so PLEASE go back to the original recipe that was hand-rolled. The original was absolutely spectacular, but now it’s dried up and not enjoyable. I spent a lot of money for these to be shipped for the holiday so this is a big bummer :(

We visit Cayucos several times per year and we always stock up on Brown Butter Cookie Company cookies on day one. We love their traditional shortbread cookies as well as some of their newer creations like the honey cookies and the chocolate toffee shortbreads. Their products are on the pricy side, but worth every penny. Highly recommended.

The cookies quite pricey but delicious. Love the atmosphere and staff are nice and friend. They sure give few samples to try which one you would like. Ill get some more of them next time.

Nov 2024 Revisted this shop while staying in Cayucos. Everything was very nicely displayed. The selections looked yummy. They had samples of all their cookies. New addition is the spice butter brown cookie. We picked the toffee butter brown cookie. It is so yummy. The gals were very friendly and cheerful. We could see they loved being there and helping customers. Another addition is the frozen custard. They sre sold in cartons. This was our first time shopping at Brown Butter Cookie Company. It is a convenient location in downtown Cayucas. There is parking in front of the store and across the street. No masks are required. The gals upfront were very friendly, cheerful and helpful. Daphne at the order counter was excellent. She answered our questions. Placed our selections very carefully into the cellophane bag. The cookies look so yummy. Farron the cashier was excellent as well. It was very unusual to see ladies in back of the cashier at tables hand rolling the cookie dough into balls. Gives it a special touch.

When I first discovered this place, it was really delicious.The melt in your mouth freshly made.You could choose just a few if you wanted or get more. Now they are overpriced and the cookies did not taste fresh they tasted old. They weren't the cookies.I remembered getting before and I was greatly disappointed and paid over forty eight dollars To get 2 bags of cookies and they were over cooked.They weren't the delicious melt in your mouth.Cookies will never go back

They have the best cookies ever! They give samples out so you can try before you buy. Little pricey but so worth it!

The cookies are so yum. They melt in your mouth and are full of flavor. It's in a great location within walking distance of the beach. It was fast and easy. We bought the cookie tower which had 4 different types of cookies: chocolate chunk, oatmeal raisin, snickerdoodle, and sugar. It also included 3 or 4 of their signature brown butter cookies and cocoa.

Everybody talks about this place is a MUST if you are visiting morro bay, so we make the trip just now.. We are so bad y’all.. sampling cooking for breakfast is terrible but we did it while on vacation. We immediately were greetings with samples and in the 15 minutes, I purchased the following Original 1 dozen toffee 1 dozen For my clients 2 dozens of original Freebies: toffee + original for my founders I think we spent $200.. I love supporting small local businesses and eating good food… Sidebar; so the price point is worth it for me y’all… if it’s not for you, perhaps y’all should diy because their cookies are a luxury item for folks who want to indulge in a opulence 😍
