About this spot
This Mapo branch of Levain Bakery serves massive, warm batches of New York-style cookies that crackle with butter and chocolate chips right out of the oven. Grab a fresh batch before it gets stale, then pair your sweet treat with a strong drip coffee to balance the rich dough.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order the 'New York' or 'Chocolate Chip' cookie immediately upon sitting down to ensure you get it while still warm from the batch cycle.
- Ask for the cookie to be served on a small plate rather than a large one, as the portions are gigantic and easily shared.
- Visit between 10 AM and 2 PM for the highest likelihood of getting a fresh batch straight off the baking line.
