Michael’s Cookie Jar

This spot is neatly tucked away in the corner of the tunnel system below the Pennzoil building. Their cookies are baked fresh every day and are delicious. They have just the right amount of butter and cooked so that they are firm but still delightfully chewy. I got the toffee with pecans and peanut butter varieties and both were excellent. Highly recommended.

Fresh baked cookies at high prices sums up this joint. I’ve been wanting to try this since I started my new job. However, today I finally bit the bullet and got a couple of cookies. Man oh man, was that a mistake, they were so good I almost wanted to buy a whole box. Overall, I’m glad I tried this place even though I don’t ever plan on coming back for obvious health reasons. It’s not bad for a nice treat or pick me up every once in a while.

A good friend of mine’s mom told me about this place a few months ago and I’ve been several times since. The cookies here are amazing and always taste fresh!
Right before the holidays I went with a few co-​workers to their Happy Hour (such a fun idea — cookie happy hour!).
The only reason I can’t give 5 stars is because so far each time I’ve gone (at least 4) they have always been sold out of milk — cookies just are’t the same without cold milk.

I didn’t notice this cookie shop until my colleague drag me in and bought me a Palmier. At the first I was a little bit concern about the boring calorie so I thought I would just take one bite of it, and what a fool I was. The Palmier was crispy, buttery, and not too sweet. It was also very addicting, I say it takes superman’s willpower to not finish this delicious treat.
I went back to the shop second day with my friends. One of my friends insisted that he doesn’t like sweets at all, and then he ravished an entire Macadamia nut cookies. I bought chocolate chunk cookie, peanut butter cookie, and oatmeal raisins cookie. They were all freshly baked and the flavor was very well balanced with the texture. Of course I finished all of them in a day and I accepted the fact I won’t be superman anytime soon.
The shop provides the punch card where you can get a free cookie after 4^th visit in 10 days or less from your first visit. I’ve also heard that you get a free cookie if you bring a new customer to the shop, but do confirm with the cashier if the promotion is still valid.
Oh and did I mention their cashier was very sweet and informational? The shop is small and neat, service was fast and delightful.
There are lots of shops in downtown tunnel that selling cookies, but why buy massive factory produced one when you can get the warm fresh baked cookies from Micheal’s Cookie Jar? I will try my best to not indulge that much when I go back to the shop.

Got my old coworkers addicted to the cookies here and they go all the time. It’s located under the Pennzoil building downtown so super convenient for a quick cookie break during work/​lunch. Favorites include their chocolate chip cookie, snickerdoodle, the dark chocolate w nuts, and m&m’s. Delicious. I even brought a cookie for my gym trainer (whoops, I know!) and he loved it. Perfect place for a pick me up.

Pretty good cookies. My favorite was the ginger – a perfect combination of sweetness and spiciness. It would have been nice if the chocolate chip cookie had more chocolate, but the cookie was fine. And «happy hour» 2 – 3 p.m. = $ 3 for two cookies (it saves you about $ 1).

Delish cookies. Friendly staff. Happy hour from 2−3…$ 3 gets you 2 large cookies or 1 cookie and a drink (milk, coffee, tea). They have all the normal cookies + very cute iced cookies and they all taste as good as they look. Ask for the frequent card… you’ll be coming back :)
