What Happens to the Mutual Aid Pop-Ups Chefs Launched During the Pandemic Now that Restaurant Jobs Are Back? - Eater

"Ashley Hernandez and Sam Padilla, founders of Seattle’s Coping Cookies, have expanded from their home to a commissary kitchen, needing space to fulfill about 55 cookie box orders each week, with some proceeds going to mental health-focused charities. And rather than stay a pop-up, they are ready to make this business their focus." - Jaya Saxena

Say “Goodbye Robyn” and Hello to Coping Cookies. Some of the best cookies I’ve ever had. Seriously, who doesn’t like over stuff cookie goodness. The owners are incredibly kind and creative. They are great people who take their baking business serious. The shop has a wonderful open atmosphere, with a focus on quality materials. If you’re in the Capital Hill neighborhood, be sure to stop in and grab a treat or some coffee. You won’t leave disappointed.

Coping Cookies is a delightful little cookie shop in Capitol Hill with plenty to offer. From coffee to cookies(and Vegan cookies), this place will surely delight any sweet treat lover. I had the Churro and Chip cookies, which were both delicious but took a different textual approach than the cookies I'm used to. One can only describe them as "meaty" cookies; the cookies are heavy and dense, which can also be aptly described as cake as a cookie. The churro flavor cookie is well-balanced with sugar and cinnamon; my partner even mentioned they would prefer it to Snickerdoodle any day of the week! Our vegan friends thoroughly enjoyed their birthday cake vegan cookie. Oh, and the espresso is downright delicious.

Cookies but make them ~gourmet~ Came here because my friend's friend in med school knew the owners (/used to work with them?). I know, distant connection, but we still support! The cookies are pretty sweet - we got the special spring flavors + the espresso one - and thicc/fulfilling. Tasted better warmed up the next day to be honest :D Owners were super sweet and friendly!

These cookies are insane. If I didn't care about paying my bills or fitting into my pants I'd probably buy a dozen of each flavor every day. I've only tried the all or muffin so far and it's incredibly soft with a flavor I've never had in cookie form before. I'm so happy I was able to catch them on opening day right before I move out of the area! The owners are so friendly and welcoming. Definitely check this place out and if you aren't in the area, they said shipping will be coming in the future.

Insaneeeeely good. One of the best cookies I’ve ever had. And I eat a LOT of cookies. The Nutella center… chefs kiss. I live around the corner and you bet I’ll be back here often to try all their different cookies!! Such a huge cookie. Amazing 10/10 perfection.

We were hunting for something to celebrate mid-autumn festival that was round like the full moon. Coping Cookies were perfect. We bought a half dozen, one of each mini and scurried home to have a cookie tasting session.

As a fan of Coping Cookies from the start, their work is unparalleled. Cookies, coffee, miscellaneous other drinks that always sound super good even though I know I'm always going to get coffee👌🏼 Don't sleep on the Vegan Espresso Chip when it's available. Get it, warm it up, love it. Oh! And their merch, get you some of that too.

Went it to find a 🎁 for my partner and I thought this place would be nice to try. Total win because my partner doesn't like super sweet stuff and I actually do like sweet stuff and they had options for both. I got the Expresso Cookie for me and The Basic Chip for my partner, when I got home and gave him the cookie it didn't last long like he devoured in seconds and said that the cookie was bussin. I got the Cocolemon which is a vegan option btw but I'm saving it for later. I'm sure it's gonna be good. Decor is pretty sik too!

Do you love cookies? Do you love you some THICC cookies? Cuz Coping has the taste and the THICCNESS. This cute shop in Cap Hill is right next to my dog's vet (lucky me!) and has THE most welcoming and friendly staff! Their cookies are fantastic...the CREAM is by far my favorite. They don't mess around with the Oreos and the cookie it perfectly balanced. Recently tried their Banana Bread type cookie, and while I could not taste banana at all...it was still tasty. Reminded me of a chocolate chip cookie with nuts. I can appreciate they make MINI COOKIES! Sometimes ya need just a bite or perhaps you want to try multiple. All in all I highly recommend this place.

Although they're closing, I did want to save this memory in the hopes they one day reopen, even if they're not planning on it. Wishing them the best in future endeavors and to continue spreading their cookie joy. Tried Coping Cookies a while back ago and was surprised when I saw them on Yelp. I was in a cookie phase and trying out all the spots with friends, so definitely had some notes set aside. Their cookies were on the softer side like cake. Enjoyed their punny flavors. Congrats to their official storefront! Lovely, thick cookies but definitely not good for health, especially being so hard to put down. You're kinda obligated to finish the job once you start you know? The other downside is they're a bit heftier in price, not totally unreasonable given specialty flavors and size, but something to be aware of. Size and price remind me of Levain Bakery. Cake It Easy - ingredients "red velvet, white chocolate" listed. Red velvet, pretty self explanatory. Instead of cake form, it's a soft cookie. Instead of cream cheese frosting, white chocolate chips are used and they're creamy! While a nice spin to try, I prefer cakes for the delicate texture. In a cookie form, you lose the velvety feel in favor of compactness. PB Practice - ingredients "cocoa, peanut butter, semi-sweet chips, PB chips" listed. Chocolate peanut butter as a fairly original flavor, I didn't think it was exceptional but it was consistent. Safe choice for a more classic taste. No S'more - ingredients "graham, marshmallow, Hershey's" listed. Looking at this cookie, it's evident that the taste would be enhanced through baking (or reheating). The Hershey's filling and marshmallow topping would become richer. If not fresh, it's still a good cookie but has much more potential. With a pop-up, heating is a hard option, but maybe with a storefront they'd be willing to help! Carrot 'Bout It - ingredients "carrot cake, white chocolate, cream cheese flavored frosting" listed. Another cake spinoff, but I really enjoyed this one more than the red velvet. Creamy white chocolate chips plus a cream cheese frosting help push towards a more realistic expectation of cake. Really, it's a portable carrot cake. Strawberry Feels - ingredients "white cake, strawberries, white chocolate" listed. This was likely the least memorable. I think I recall it being overly soft and cakey. Personally would skip this with a big reason being all other options were better. Basic Chip - ingredients "graham, chocolate chips" listed. Rounding it all out, the best way to compare cookie spots is through the OG chocolate chip. It's pretty trendy to add some sea salt to draw out contrasting flavors and they do that here as well. It's a solid chocolate chip, but I do think the unique flavors here are the biggest draw and would recommend them over original options if visiting.

I was lucky enough to win half a dozen cookies from Coping before they opened their brick and mortar. Right around the tile they had their kickstarter. Finally had a chance to visit their space last Friday. Picked up a couple of cookies up on an Intentionalist tab, but I really liked that they had minis and bought a couple to share with friends at work. I enjoy the lemon ones they're sweet which is what I prefer. Was down the street getting milk tea so we popped in the shop is cute. Love open it is and you can see them baking right behind the main counter.

A cute pastel cookie bakery in Capitol Hill, coping cookies is LGBTQ BIPOC owned serving up artisanal cookies and speciality drinks. They have unique coffee drinks that have soda water in them, which I've never tried before this. They also have more regular coffee drinks, hot cocoa, and teas. We ordered the americano spagliato and the I am root, both of which are unique espresso drinks with soda water in them. I don't think they're my style of drink, but they were very refreshing. We ordered the ube cookie and the earl gray cookie. They are giant! And they taste great the next day too. The earl gray cookie has great flavor and isn't too sweet. I thought the ube cookie was more coconut than ube, and had too much "frosting" inside which made it too sweet. They also have mini cookies if a giant one is too much for you. One of the owners was there and was very helpful in describing flavors. They were running the shop by themselves, from taking orders to watching the oven to making drinks. There is no restroom, no dining area, and no parking.

I have been waiting for coping cookie to open their store front for a while now so it was exciting to come check them out! We came around 330 in the afternoon and there was one cookie that was sold out (the one I wanted too ) but I still got a couple to try. The place is very cute and charming and of course the two owners are as nice as always :) Each cookie is around $6 so they aren't cheap but they are huge. Definitely shareable. I love that the cookies are soft but still stable on the inside and that the flavors does pill through. Out of the 3 cookies I got this time, my favorite was definitely the PB dream. The choco pretzel was a little crumbly (maybe because it's vegan?). The milky charm was a very close second but I'm not a fan of lucky charms marshmallows so it's a personal preference thing haha but the interior of that was delicious Google map directions does take you to the back of the store so it's a little confusing but it's the same place as Blotto (2 doors down from it). Will definitely be back as they rotate flavors and can't wait for the minis!!!!

What an adorable sweet gem in Capitol Hill! This small little cookie shop has some amazing freshly baked cookies! They are so friendly and warm upon entering. Since it was my first time, I got the little flavor introduction. Ultimately, I ended up with their chocolate chip cookie (they also have minis available!) I wanted to start simple and build up to their rotating flavors. I also paired my cookie with a caramel apple cider which made for a cozy fall drink. Prices are reasonable and everything is delicious quality. I enjoyed my cookie and cider amongst the fall leaves on a bench at Cal Anderson Park and it made for such a nice October afternoon.

SO excited to try this place out and certainly was well worth it! They have rotating seasonal flavors; for June they have an ube cookie, birthday cake, and rocky road cookies! I got the ube cookie called "I Yam" which was a nutty and pronounced ube flavored cookie that is filled with a sweet and decadent coconut frosting that is topped with some little mochi pieces. It is a rich cookie in the best kind of way!! Super sweet and super shareable as well. I got it for myself but that's besides the point :'). Honestly my favorite part was the ube cookie itself because the nutty flavor lended itself so well to the chewy texture of the cookie! Additionally I wanted to try a classic and went with a mini version of the basic chip. It's loaded with chocolate chips and also has the chewy texture that the ube cookie had! It's vanilla forward and so delicious, just a super well done classic!! Finally I saw they had an "americano sbagliato" which is a sparkling espresso drink with vanilla and orange. It's truly such a refreshing drink and I'm on my search for the best espresso tonics in town. I can happily say I'll add this one to the rotation! To top it off, the owners were so friendly and I can tell they've got a lot of love for their business and cookies! Can't wait to come back and support this lovely bakery!

Came here in the afternoon on a Sunday. They were sold out of some pretty good flavors, including the stuffed ones, but they still had chocolate chip which was my absolute fave! I ate some on the way out and had to go back to get more. Legit some of the best choco chip cookies I've ever had! Absolutely melts in your mouth! Also had the cream cookie (pretty good though I feel like this one filled would be amazing) and the vegan espresso ones (tasty but not my fave. Didn't melt in my mouth like the choco chip one did). Overall, despite the limited inventory, these cookies were phenomenal. When they start selling their Nutella one again, I will sell my third kid's kidney so I can buy out their entire inventory before it even has the chance to hit the shelves.

Worth a stop if you're craving cookies on the fancy side (the cross sections look amazing) to make the price worth it!

Really nice clever cookies. This is my first time here. My wife wanted to go and we visited before a show at the Paramount. These cookies are huge and are unique flavors. We will be back for sure.

I've been here twice and ingested 4 cookies so it is time to leave a review. This has made my list of favorite cookie places. I love that the cookies are filled. The cross-section of their cookies is enough to make you run to the shop. I've only been buying the rotating flavors so I can't comment on the basic ones but I like their cookie texture a lot. It's dense with a crispy edge. The cream/frosting filled ones are the best. They're not cake like. Each cookie is hefty so they are definitely shareable. I've never bought any minis so I can't say how those are compared to the full sized ones. Too bad its not that close to me but definitely worth making a trip here when I see a flavor I really want to try!

DAMN THESE ARE SOME BOMB COOKIES!!!! I am a (uncertified) Cookie Monster extreme. People all have their sweet treat fixings...some like cake or pie or ice cream or whatever, but me I like me a good f*cking cookie and this place has GOOD F*CKING COOKIES! Came in here a few months ago since my dog's vet was next door and liked the cookie but was walking by here on my way to the grocery store today and decided to indulge and OMG! Picked up a stack of cookies and was not disappointed! The 'On A Roll' cookie was next level incredible...might go back tomorrow and get the remaining stash and freeze them for my personal greed. The salt touch in the chocolate chip cookie is perfection! At either rate, LOVE that it is Latina and Queer owned which makes me want to support it more. Keep it up ladies and best of luck! Will be in MUCH MORE OFTEN...AND SO SHOULD YOU!

A queer-women owned small business that makes delicious cookies & beverages all while supporting local charities - what more could I ask for! These cookies are delicious - with the perfect crunch and soft interior. Each cookie is satisfying but also not heavy. Their instagram is fun with loads of memes and messages about inclusion, self-love, and community appreciation. 1000% recommend!!

The best cookies in Seattle right now!! Every flavor is so well balanced and the texture is just amazing. I also love that they have giant sizes that are perfect for sharing or minis for just a taste. I got the birthday bash, I Yam and mini oatty Apple and they were seriously delicious. I Yam was definitely one of the most unique and exciting cookies I've had in a while! The cookie base was so moist and thick without being dense and the addition of the creamy coconut filling and chewy mochi topping was just perfect!! The oatty Apple was another winner--I can't stress enough how much I wish I could eat one every day! And birthday bash was so tasty and nostalgic with the light butter/vanilla cake flavor and fun sprinkles. 1000000% you giving this place a visit. It'll definitely be the best decision you make that day! P.S. they also make the most killer lattes! "Sam's latte" is literally the best espresso drink I've ever had. So don't miss out on ordering a drink while you're there!

The cookies are so yummy and unique. Don't let the price tag scare you off, the cookies are easily the size of two. I love the creativity of the cookies and how thick they are.

So glad to live nearby this bakery! The cookies are so yummy and the service is wonderful. I think I've tried most of the flavors and I definitely recommend the cocolemon cookies! Coconut and lemon were made for each other! The storefront is very cute and has merch like shirts ready for purchase as well.

I've been following Coping Cookies for a couple years now!! I've ordered their cookies online for shipping and they are the best cookies I've ever had!! I love their passion behind the organizations they support. I can't wait to see their new space! Planning a trip to Seattle soon and I'll definitely be stopping by!

Delicious cookies in a cute neighborhood barely off Broadway. A hidden gem and great alternative to hiking all the way over to Macrina for a non-QFC cookie.

Sam & Ash are the best owners of the CUTEST cookie shop in Seattle. They make some DELIGHTFUL and BIG ass cookies. Perfect to share with a friend (you don't have to they can get their own). I highly suggest getting a hot coffee or cocoa to pair with your pick of cookie flavor -- but If "All or Muffin" is an option GET IT... or Milky Charms, or any of them truthfully they're all delicious. Cannot go wrong with Coping Cookies. I'd give it a 10/10 but I am only allowed 5 stars. Check out their instagram for pictures & flavor announcements!
