The Cookie Box

Windsor's cult gourmet cookie shop, baking thick, gooey NY-style cookies people cross Melbourne for.

A small Chapel St takeaway shopfront with an open bakery window onto the ovens. the smell of fresh cookies pulls people in from the street.

Thick, chunky cookies with a crisp edge and gooey centre, a rotating 'cookie of the month' flavour (Easter special, Sachertorte), and dedicated gluten-free and vegan lines.

Styled on thick American/New York-style cookies rather than a specific national cuisine; reviews focus on texture and flavour execution over heritage.

At roughly $7-8 a cookie, most reviewers call it worth the price for the size and quality, though a vocal minority say it's too steep and too sweet for a single cookie.
