I walked in The Baked Bear early afternoon on the 3.24.2026 wanting a cookie....a real good cookie. But as I approached, the signage screamed Ice Cream, no mention of cookies...but the sign said baked! So I went in and was greeted by Karli. I quickly told her I had no clue what I wanted as I gazed at what seemed like hundreds of cookie choices but was only 10-12. They all smelled good and looked good. Karli was both patient and informative and guided me to my 4 selections---they didn't survive the trip home. Cinnamon toast crunch, Cookie monster, Funfetti and Nutella chocolate chunk. Summary - Karli was absolutely gracious and fantastic to work with. The cookies are to die for, all soft and melt in your mouth delicious. Each had its on flavor burst in your mouth and each leaves you wanting to try more. The good thing, this is a I can't go wrong with any decision. I frequent downtown more often and now I have a new guilty place to stop. No real good pics of the brownie (Karli's favorite)....it just looked like it would send me over the top with goodness!!

I was so excited to finally try this super cool and fun experience. I passed months ago and they were closed. They have a variety of freshly baked cookies with hand made and unique ice cream flavors. You can mix match the top and bottom cookies along with an enormous scoop of ice cream. I can’t wait to go back, and there is also a location here in Austin.

First time here. Great place! Everyone very nice and welcoming. Delicious ice-cream 😋 Thank you, we'll come again soon on our next vacation.
Always drove by curious about this place. Luckily, was able to try it on their free scoop day and I was impressed on the flavors! So good. We tried the s’mores ice cream and blackberry crumble. My bf and I both agreed to definitely come back for our next sweet treat. Thank you!
The girls working were amazing and helpful. I got the bear bowl, hot cookie and ice cream. Sat outside and enjoyed it on a sunny day. Great place, great staff and amazing environment to chill out and relax. Stay awesome Baked Bear.
