Reviews Summary
Appalachia Cookie Company is celebrated for its warm, delicious, and generously sized cookies, with unique flavors being a major draw. However, some customers have reported issues with cookie quality, particularly when ordering for delivery or if they appear overbaked, and there have been concerns about customer service and value.
"We have been coming here since our first born went to college. They have moved to a new bigger and updated location. They now offer canned & bottled drinks as well as freshly made hot & cold specialty coffees. The main attraction is their soft delicious cookies. If you’re getting a dozen then be prepared to wait 20 minutes…..it is so worth it! The cookies are made fresh in house and they come in various flavors. Our favorites are the Cheesecake & Snickerdoodle. The new place is cozy and warm with indoor and outdoor seating. It is very inviting and relaxing. Since school is not I. Session it was not terribly busy. Staff is super friendly and attentive."

"Dry, crumbled frozen cookies wrapped in a plastic bag. Not edible, expired, gross. Maybe where they are naked they are good, but obviously they Re shipping frozen crap to Chicago and distribution thru doordash."
Rodney Zeedyk
"We ordered cookies through DoorDash for the first time. Appalachia Cookie Co was very quick! The cookies came very well packaged and the presentation of the cookies was super aesthetically pleasing. I’m sure the freshness from in store would’ve been a different experience, but our personal experience is that the cookies were kind of stale…even after heating. We were pretty sad. Other than that, a good experience."
