Warning, the following article contains details of chewy, chunky, and deliciously thick cookies.
While cookies are never a bad idea, the best cookies in Sydney/Eora are in a league of their own. Homemade, freshly baked in small batches, and with infinite attention to detail in the flavour creation process, these bad boys truly leave nothing to be desired.

Various Locations

What started with the crew at ButterBoy keeping the Northern Beaches fed has now expanded into an unparalleled Sydney-wide cookie empire. Their specials are to die for, with new cookie flavours (including GF and VG picks) hitting the shelves at their Manly, Chatswood, Broadway, and Brookvale locations monthly, as well as stocking cafes all over Sydney. Honourable mentions? We still haven't recovered from their Golden Gaytime-inspired brownie sandwich—you'll be finding creative ways to make it last a week.
Insider Intel:
- Their Brookvale HQ has expanded into cafe-style drinks—including cookie milk matcha. Enough said.
Kuki

If you are tired of the same array of trendy cookie flavours, and you aren't a fan of anything loaded or stuffed, Kuki should be the next spot on your list—simple, innovative, and damn tasty. These sweet treats take on an Asian influence, with flavours like taro mochi and black sesame with white chocolate; alongside home-style baking comforts like apple pie, almond honey butter, Earl Grey, and a classic brown-butter choc chip. Simple pleasures that, in their words, "bring you back to a time when life was much simpler"—starting with a fresh-baked cookie, of course.
Insider Intel:
- Pair your fave cookie with a healthy dollop of matcha, vanilla, or Earl Grey soft serve.
La Maison Cookies

This homemade cookie delivery service has been a saviour through times of lockdowns past, curing our 3pm sugar cravings and delivering choc-chip cookie goodness to the people of Sydney. La Maison is baking up a storm with her decadent and gooey choc-chip cookies, all of which are handmade fresh to deliver over the weekends (just make sure you give 48-hours notice).
These babies are no usual cookie affair—they’re big, chunky, packed with bits of melted choc goodness and go perfectly with a big scoop of good old-fashioned vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce, if you want to go all the way.
Insider Intel:
- While home deliveries are only available online, La Maison is available in your local Barrel One Coffee Roasters, with multiple locations across Sydney's North Shore and Eastern Suburbs.
Master Baker

If you’ve got a knack for the saltier things in life, then you need to get onto the cookie affairs at Master Baker. A bit of a cookie enigma, to manifest these perfectly pancaked bundles of joy you’ll need to slide into the mysterious master baker Maria’s DMs. Keep an eye out on her Instagram for pre-orders and dedicated pick-up dates from Maria’s HQ in Villawood.
Flavours here span the likes of Maria’s uber-famous miso choc chunk, a Valrhona chocolate, toasty macadamia, and finally, a dark chocolate and toffee cookie. As if that wasn’t enough, she also makes a standout truffle burnt basque cheesecake that needs to be seen to be believed.
Insider Intel:
- These highly-sought-after cookie drops only happen every 3-4 months, so turn on those post notifications—we promise it's worth the wait.
Bennet Street Dairy
73 Bondi Road, Bondi

Is this Sydney’s most famous cookie? We’d back that. Bondi’s Bennett St Dairy, home of the enormous, unbeatable pizza cookie, has been slinging rolls of its famous choc chip cookie dough (for your baking at home pleasure) since 2020. Now, this famed cookie is even more of a cult hit—baked fresh, add on a scoop of soft serve and choc to make it their signature BSD cookie fudge sundae.
Insider Intel:
- Not a local? Head to your nearest Coles—their chilled, at-home dough is sold under the name Bondi Dairy Co., with flavours like original choc-chip and salted caramel white choc.

Chris Sheldrick is a man of many talents. As well as being one of the co-founders of new Sydney bakery, Banksia Bakehouse, he’s also the guy who brought thick, New York-style cookies back to our radar. What started as a weekend market staple has now turned into a delicious online bakehouse, and one that has already stirred up a cult following.
It’s known as Thicc Cookies and, as the name suggests, you’ll find nothing less than perfectly chewy dough creations here, all of which can be ordered straight to your door (Australia-wide). Flavours range from Biscoff Lotus and red velvet, all the way to pandan coconut and berries and cream.
Insider Intel:
- In general, these bad boys can barely be held in one hand, but if size is no issue and you’re keen to go hard on that sugar hit, they also come in a whopping 1kg. The beast gets delivered to your door in a foil tray, alongside instructions on how you can reheat it in your oven.
Baked Box Cookies

You won't know cookie greatness until you order up a fresh batch of the good stuff from Baked Box Cookies. The sling of flavours here will no doubt get you drooling (think cinnabon, brookie, biscoff and birthday cake), so it’s best you order by the box and get an assortment. As it’s best to always judge a cookie factory on its OG, we think you are safe with this one. The classic choc chip honours a crispy edge, chewy inner ring, and seriously soft centre, loaded with a mix of dark and milk chocolate chips and a sprinkle of sea salt.
Insider Intel:
- The Baked Box also lets you turn any of your favourite chocolate bars into a one-kilogram cookie—you can request a monster cookie with the likes of Kit Kat, Mars, Snickers, Twix, Milky Way, Turkish Delight, Caramilk—you name it. We'll let that sink in.
