I really enjoyed this dessert place. my sister and I came here and really enjoyed the ice cream and cookies. I also got a brownie because I was really craving a brownie and now I really want to try more of the items. It is kind of expensive, but I’m sure that is necessary to keep places in business nowadays. This place would be great for dates and times with family. as always much love from Houston and the universe.

On a late night rides and we came across dessert. Open late it seem the line never dies down but it stay moving. There take one the classic cookies were on point, along with the deluxe, they did very well. Hope to see more unique cookies on the menu soon.

First time trying Insomnia in Houston. I’ve had the original in Chicago.

Vegan review: lines were long at 11:30pm on a Saturday night. I ordered one of each vegan cookie they offered: chocolate chip, double chocolate chip and confetti. My cookies weren’t fresh but warm and crunchy. The confetti has to be my favorite out of the three vegan options. The chocolate chip is good but has a weird, old aftertaste. Double chocolate chip was the smallest in size but tasted fine.

Would I come back here again? No. I’ve had better vegan cookies, which are definitely cheaper, fresher and larger in size. I’m not going to go out of my way to try this place again.

I think the price for these cookies are ridiculous but the cookies itself were delicious. This was my first time trying Insomnia Cookies. I bought 4 cookies for roughly $20🤯 Chocolate chunk, Chocolate peanut butter, S’mores, & Cinnamon bun.

Plenty of parking in front of the store, which was a plus for me. The restaurant was clean. I would eat here again & try different flavors but not no time soon lol.

Awesome customer service!
All the cookies were extremely fresh, I came in the afternoon.
The ice cream was very smooth and I could tell it's being frozen properly.
Very clean inside as well, no outside seating.
Can't wait to come back, every cookie we chose was delicious!

First time trying these cookies, and I didn't enjoy the experience. It was a disappointment because we wanted to come here for a while.
They didn't have some of the cookies in the menu available. We got the cookie sandwich with chocolate chip cookies and cookies-and-dream ice cream. The cookies were hard and not even warm. The ice cream was good, though.
We also got a Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup cookie, a White Chocolate Macadamia, and an Oatmeal Chocolate Walnut. All of the cookies were hard and too crispy on the edges.
The lady who took our order was not very friendly and didn't give us one of the cookies we ordered, so I had to go back and get it. She said that she thought we didn't want it.

For a first timer, my overall experience at Insomnia was great. The options they have on the menu is unique, The
customer service was very nice and welcoming throughout the ordering process, The establishment was very clean and
imple, and you know a cookie shop would be good when you a whiff of these fresh baked cookies - yes, the smell is
amazing, my brother and 1 ordered the On A Classic Cookie option, and it was very delicious. For the cookie, we picked
the vegan option ( Vegan Birthday Cake and Vegan Chocolate Chunk), and mixed it with Cookie Dough ice cream and Cookies and Cream. The cookies were warm and fresh, so taking a bite of it with the ice cream was outstanding. And the ice cream didn't melt too quickly(big plus). It was a perfect combination| And it wasn't too expensive as we thought like other places, the price value was perfect, especially for the quality of the cookie.

I didn't know the hype about it, but 1 can understand why this place is quite popular in the River Oaks area. With that
being said, parking can be a hit or miss, especially during rush hour. The area can be very busy so parking can be tough depending on the time you go.

Also, there is limited indoor seating, It may not be a bad thing if you're going there with one or two friends or
significant others, but be aware that it won't accommodate a huge number. But don't let that ruin your experience, as
the cookies were amazing

Overall, this is a must if you're at River Oaks. It's even better when you' re into sweets and late-night snacking. I would definitely be coming here again when I'm at the area.

FOR VEGETARIANS AND VEGANS: great customer experience and service. The staff member said we could have fresh cookies if we waited 10-15 minutes since the cookies we wanted ran out. the vegan cookies were very tasty - got the 6 pack (double chocolate, chocolate chip, and birthday cake)

A couple of seats to sit inside as well as great ambience. Would recommend the cookies 10/10
