Crumbl who? Insomnia what?Even Grandma can't make cookies like this 🫢Legitimately the BEST cookie I've ever had and I fancy myself a cookie connoisseur.I got the mint cookie (yes mint) for $5, which at first was a bit steep.BUTIt was sweet, but not too sweet... a perfect balance... the cookie was moist and almost gooey with a strong mint flavor. Each bite was better than the last, as I quickly realized this was indeed the cookie I've been looking for my entire life.I was even more amazed to find out the cookie was lower in sugar (hence less sweet) and carbs, fulfilling my fantasy of eating the sweet treat that could never make me fat.Once you get a cookie here, you'll never forget...This is the One. 💍

I recently stopped here awhile shopping at Nashville Farmer’s Market and was blown away by their cookies! The shop itself has such a cozy and inviting vibe, making it the perfect spot to satisfy a sweet tooth.The highlight was definitely their signature Res velvet cookie and Earl grey one - perfectly soft in the middle with just the right amount of gooey chocolate.The staff was super friendly and even helped me pick out a mix of flavors to take home. Bonus points for their eco-friendly packaging.Whether you’re a cookie connoisseur or just looking for a sweet treat, I can’t recommend this place enough. I’ll definitely be back to try more flavors!

Probably the best cookie I’ve ever bought from a specialty cookie shop. This little snack brightened my day in many ways. I had the Earl Grey Almond Cookie and a little carton of Melon flavored milk. The young man who was working the register was friendly and enthusiastic, making conversation. I saved half the cookie for when I got home, and it was still good. I’d love to try more of their flavors next time I’m over there.

I don’t ever leave reviews for places - but had to after visiting this spot at the Nashville Farmer’s market, especially seeing so few reviews for this shop already. Some of the sweetest customer service I’ve had in a long time. The cookies are beautiful, with both classic and unique flavors (if you’re like my husband and I, who love trying something unexpected!). And they taste. SO. GOOD. The staff person gave us one of the bacon chive cream cheese cookies (which typically wouldn’t be my thing) for free when we made our initial purchase, and it was incredible. Just before we left the market a few hours later, we ate the cookie we purchased. And immediately ran back to the shop to buy several more (they were closing but kindly paused to let us make our purchase 😅). For ourselves, for family to try, to shout from the rooftops. This all sounds dramatic - but these cookies are dramatically good. You really can taste the difference in the real ingredients & lack of added preservatives, the texture is perfect, the sweetness is perfect. My new favorite cookies, hands down. Only wish we lived closer to Nashville! No photos, unfortunately, because these cookies are all in my stomach.
