"When you walk into Funny Face Bakery, a small purple storefront shop off the corner of Lafayette and Houston streets, you’re greeted by creative and hilariously decorated sugar cookies ranging from the iconic Kim Kardashian crying face to hand-crafted NYC memorabilia (think a metrocard, a rat holding a slice of pizza). But the most surprising treat is waiting in a display case right under the register: soft-baked cookies of so many flavors; Crumbfetti, oatmeal raisin, chocolate chip just to name a few which are taken right off the oven rack upon ordering. Make no mistake, these creations are not an afterthought of an otherwise looks-focused bakery—they’re unbelievably delicious." - Emily Adler

"This Noho bakery is best known for their elaborately decorated sugar cookies, but their crispy-mallow crunch cookie is what we’ll be coming back for. It’s a sweet, sticky, caramel-y affair. The cookie is large, flat, and flexible—the antithesis of their chocolate chip cookie, which is like a softball of thick, chip-studded dough. If you like extremely thick chocolate chip cookies, you’ll probably like that one, too. And those sugar cookies that look like famous people? Also pretty delicious. " - Carina Finn

this is genuinely the cutest little spot if you’re somebody who loves silly little things like trinkets because I thought the cookies were so adorable! The price really did take me back when I saw $14 for a sugar cookie, but I know how much work and time those designs take and they truly are pieces of art if I’m being completely honest with you. I tried their regular cookies and cream cookie as well as their chocolate chip cookie and I have to say their cookies and cream cookie was a stellar cookie. I genuinely can’t stop thinking about it days later and I need another one and I’m willing to go on a train and a ferry just to get it. The chocolate chip cookie was OK. It kind of tasted very similar to Levain, and I didn’t really think it was worth the seven dollars. The cookies and cream cookie was absolutely delectable and I really do want to try the more creative flavors and see what the sugar cookie hype is about! The staff was also super sweet and I was very appreciative! The vibes were on point!! 💖✨

This review is exclusively for the chocolate chip cookie! I had Funny Face Bakery on my list for the longest time, after seeing it beat out Levain in several cookie reviews. I had my doubts, as I am a huge Levain fan, so I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed this cookie. However, I do not necessarily think it is fair to compare the two cookies, as it comes down to preference. To me, Levain's cookies skew more toward "natural" flavoring, versus Chip City's cookies are artificially sweet. Funny Face is more on the sweeter side, and the consistency is more crispy than chewy. The crispy factor really surprised me for a thicker cookie. Anyone who likes cookies with these characteristics will appreciate the cookie. This is the best sweet chocolate chip cookie I have had so far in NYC. However, $6/cookie is very pricey, though I would still pay to treat myself once in a while. I have seen poorer reviews on the other cookies, so I will update my review when I return to try some of the others.

Cookies were absolutely amazing! Best cookies I've ever had. I tried vegan chocolate chip and birthday party sugar cookie. Excellent! Would of given 5 stars all around but the staff was to busy on their phone to greet me, or say anything until I spoke first and said what i wanted. “Do better Funny Face Bakery Staff” Stopping into your quaint little business should be a delightful fun experience, not dull!

The chocolate chip cookie is massive, heavy and thick. The size matches the price, as it's on the higher end price wise for a chocolate chip cookie in the city. The cookie was still warm when I bought it, slightly gooey in the center. It's quite sweet with the ratio of chocolate chips to dough. It's definitely worth a try.

I got the Chocolate Chip Cookie ($6), and it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had—maybe even the best. It’s a tough call between Funny Face and Levain for the top spot. But all I’m gonna say is that it was so worth it.

Some of the best cookies I’ve ever had! My favorite was the chocolate chip and confetti. They are very gooey and even braces friendly. However, my favorite part was the service! Shoutout to Jaylene for making this such a pleasant experience, I will definitely be coming back (not very common in NYC sadly).

Funny Face Bakery is hands down now my favorite cookie spot in NYC! For background, I’ve never been here nor even heard of the bakery until digging around at bakeries that did specialty desserts and treats for Valentines Day. The staff was incredibly friendly and helped me pick out the perfect cookies, to which I went with the s’mores and chocolate chip cookie—which is, without a doubt, the BEST chocolate chip cookie I’ve ever had. It’s perfectly soft, gooey, and absolutely addictive. If I had some ice cream handy, it would’ve made the perfect pazookie but still absolutely phenomenal. The main reason I came here is because of their specialization and customization of different kinds desserts and treats. In this case I came for their Valentines Day sugar cookies where I got a cookie with “Let’s Get Freaky” very nicely lettered in pink icing design, as a fun and unique way to ask my girlfriend to be my Valentine. It was a huge hit! Their attention to detail when it comes to creativity is very real and you can see how much they care about the place when the cookies taste just as good as they look. Whether it’s for their specialty treats with funny messages, or their regular all-star lineup of cookies you truly CANT GO WRONG🙌🏾

I was set on trying a new cookie spot, and we were specifically looking for a bakery that could deliver to our office and offer gluten-free and vegan options. At first, I couldn’t find the vegan/gluten-free chocolate chip cookie listed on the delivery app, so I called—and I’m so glad I did. I spoke with a lovely woman (I wish I had caught her name!) who was incredibly kind and helpful. She quickly made the cookie available, and before we knew it, our order had arrived—hot and fresh, which never happens with our usual place! The cookies were absolutely delicious—melt-in-your-mouth, perfectly balanced, and not overly sweet. I also really appreciate how transparent they are about the ingredients they use. One of my coworkers ordered one of their fun sugar cookies, and it truly felt like receiving a piece of edible art. We all had a laugh at what was written on it and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Even the packaging was spot-on. We'll definitely be ordering again!
