Cookies are delicious, but for such a small shop it’s pretty uncomfortable to have to listen to all three people behind the counter vent about customers. I completely understand the need to release some steam, but there’s a time and a place.

Some of the best and move creative cookies in the greater Boston area! Their coffees are great too, but there is extremely limited seating inside and expect there to be a line to wait in to order your coffee/cookie order. Worth it for the creative drinks and seasonal items though!

The half cookie new location in Winthrop is unreal! The inside is beautiful and feels cozy to just hangout in and have a sweet treat. The cookie butter latte was so so good and the cookie options were even better. My favorite was the red velvet, so soft and warm packed with flavor. The owners were personable and make you feel as if the have known you forever. Will be back for sure.

One of my favorite places for coffee!! Recently tried the cinnamon bun and it was delicious (definitely best to eat it when you get it because it’s nice and warm). They are known for their cookies and I always try to grab one when I go in but I will never leave without an iced latte from this place.

I’ve been here a few times in the last year, and I’m a big fan of the cookies and the lattes! (I miss the evermore!) However, my experience yesterday was not great. I totally understand it was valentine’s day and it was busy, and mistakes happen, but maintaining good service when things get busy is what makes a place great. I ordered a few cookies and lattes, one of which being the salted twix (and it was rung up as such, so I wasn’t misheard). Later when I went to eat it, I took a bite and discovered I had instead received a sea salt nutella. In many cases this wouldn’t be an issue, but unfortunately I am allerg...

In my opinion, very average tasting cookies. Definitely a good variety of flavors to choose from, I got a few different ones and they were all average. Not very warm when I got them. The guy behind the counter though was very nice. He offered us some free day old cookies, that you can purchase, since we were from out of state. We were told to microwave them for a few seconds to warm them up. I feel like a day old cookie shouldn’t be as hard as they were. $36 for 6 cookies is a lot I think. I feel like these cookies have the wow factor for how they look and advertise rather than for the taste.

The cookies are soooo good and come out nice and warm. The restaurant itself is a tiny bit small but it’s good to eat a quick cookie and coffee then move on. My favorite cookie was the matcha special cookie and the brookie!

I just had the evermore latte and it was easily the best coffee beverage I’ve had in the Boston area. Also the barista, Maria, was so lovely and inviting. What a cute establishment. I can’t wait to bring my friends here!

Seriously the best latte and cinnamon roll we’ve had in the greater Boston area! We tried the cookies and cream latte. They have some amazing flavors and so many different options to choose from! Absolutely adore the heart shaped straws as well- such a cute touch! I’m not much of a scone person but fiancé loved the maple bacon cheddar scone as well!

The MOST delicious cookies ever and the owners are amazing. I first had the pleasure of trying these cookies at Snowport in the Seaport. My favs are the funfetti and their thin crispy chocolate chip. Sooooo yummy!! Wish I was closer to their other location.

Went to the holiday market in Boston and bought 4 cookies. Went home and wished I had 14 more cookies. I bragged about these cookies to my family and decided to reach out and place a mail order. The cookies arrived, fresh, perfectly packaged and better than I ever imagined them to be. I buy a chocolate chip cookie everywhere I go, these are the absolute best cookies I have ever had and yes, my family agrees 🫶🏻

I think the Half Cookie is so great. I've gotten cookies here once before but since then I've come back again and again solely for their lattes. I absolutely love their fun creations that they come up with every month and I typically like to try to make it in-store at least once a month to try one! But they always have their permanent menu which includes their Cookie Butter Latte and their Chocolate Chip Cookie Latte. I would recommend this spot for anyone who loves a good sweet iced latte. For anyone planning on trying it soon, their space is kind of small so only about 2-4 parties can fit inside at once.

This place is amazing! I work in the building and my team loves The Half Cookie. The coffee is delicious (I still don't have a favorite because they all taste good) and its so freaking cute. I love the heart shaped straw! The cookies are to die for! The nutella cookie is a dream. But my favorite part of this location is the service. Alex and Danielle are so sweet and it is the cherry on top of the whole experience. I highly recommend this place!

OMG the coffee here is SOOOO good. Today was my first time ever trying a coffee from here. I tried a signature latte (can't remember the name) but it was soooooo delicious and sweet just how I like it. I will definitely be going back! :)

Staff was friendly. The cookies were ok, nothing special. My latte had no flavor whatsoever, just tasted like milk.

Love the cookies, specialty iced coffees, and the atmosphere in the shop! We tried the sea salt Nutella and the Twix cookies.
