I LOVE Levain Bakeries. I've been to a few in NYC, and happened to see the one near East Hampton on the way to Montauk. Had to do a double take, since I wasn't expecting to see one out this way. The cookies were fantastic (as always). Tried to go back with more friends another time, but they closed so early (3 pm). We'll try again another time!

There is no point in trying the rest when you have found the best.

I finally got my hands on these delicious little well errr maybe not so little treats. Man oh man. Upon walking into the shop I was surprised to see I was the only one in the shop but that didn't deter me. The girl was super helpful, kind and patient while I made my selections of treats to bring home. The ambiance is your typical bakery where I could see the workers working with the ovens and the large mixer. I will definitely be back for more goodies. 5 stars for Levain!

Yummy bread and pastries but I don't think the staff is capable of smiling or being socially friendly. I'll visit again because of the tasty treats

Made the drive for one of their famous cookies. It was a little hidden but for reference it's close to the Home Goods. Parking is behind the building. The chocolate chip cookie was so good I forgot to take a pic before obliterating it. I ordered a vanilla latte but they said that they don't carry any flavors. Overall it was a cute little shop.

The Wainscott location is full of roaches and employees were visibly sick and coughing / sneezing on food. Stay away

You can just walk in and enjoy the fabulous smell of baked goods or you can purchase a treat and taste a little bit of heaven. The cookies are big enough to share but good enough to eat alone if that's how you roll.

I was so excited to finally try the famous Levain after years of hearing about it. Unfortunately the experience was a huge letdown. I ordered 3 different cookies, 2 of the flavored brioche and a pizza.Starting off with the worst, the pizza was completely inedible. It was so crisp and dried out it must have been cooked 5 days prior. The entire thing - not just the crust - had the texture of a potato chip and just crumbled as you tried to bite into it.The brioche was mediocre. It was quite dry, not a the fluffy, flavorful brioche I was expecting. It also seemed as though maybe these had been baked the day prior.Now to what they are famous for... the cookies... they were just ok. So many competitors have replicated the Levain cookies now but frankly... the competition does it better. If you like a very semisweet forward cookie then maybe you will like it. However all 3 flavors I tried lacked balance, in my opinion.

You best know what you want when you get there as they move fast and no time allowance for browsing. Hubby enjoyed his fresh baked cookie.

It was fine but nothing like the NYC shop.I went to the city a few months ago and tried Levain. Basically, it was life changing. When I found out they had a store in Wainscott, I knew I had to try it the next time I was out there (which happened to be this past weekend).It's tucked in a small area of other stores and it's pretty easy to miss as it's not facing the street. I was worried the store would be just as crowded as the city but it wasn't. My husband and I were the only two patrons in the store.I guess I lucked out at the NYC shop when my two chip chocolate chip cookie was handed to me warm. This wasn't the case here but I was still excited to try when I got home.A bonus: there was one banana bread slice cut too small so they offered it to us for free which was very nice.My husband said the banana bread was pretty good but not like a traditional banana bread. It had raisins inside.When we got home and heated up our cookies, they were pretty good. Again, not like the original. Filling for sure - you probably can only have a half without feeling sick.Still, I would get Levain the next time I'm out East.

Their cookies are famous for a reason! They are just ridiculously delicious. It seriously takes me about five sittings to finish just one of the cookies. I stopped in here on a Sunday morning on my way to the ferry. They were busy, but had plenty of employees working to help keep the line moving. My only complaint is I wish the cookies were showcased a bit differently. I quickly ordered from the cookie plate and didn't even seen the other cookies scattered around it in the case. My favorite cookie was definitely the chocolate peanut butter. It was just spot on. None of the cookies disappointed though! I also tried the chocolate chip and double chocolate. Friendly staff, plenty of tasty baked goods, and solid coffee options. You can't go wrong!
