Popular Gourmet Cookie Company To Open In Darien Friday

DARIEN, CT — Chip City Cookies, the gourmet cookie brand with over 30 locations on the East Coast, will open its newest storefront in Darien on Friday, Jan. 26.

The new store is located at 112 Heights Road Unit R325 in Darien Commons, and will be open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday.

Darien marks the company's second Connecticut location, with the other in Fairfield.

"We are excited to open our second location in Connecticut," Chip City co-owner Teddy Galias said in an email to Patch. "Darien Commons is a fun development with lots of great retailers and a vibrant neighborhood."

To celebrate the grand opening, the first 100 customers will receive a free cookie with purchase.

Cookie flavors include peanut butter & jelly; the everything cookie; oatmeal apple pie; blueberry cheesecake; s'mores; lemon berry; the cannoli Cookie, and much more.

"We have 44 classic flavors that rotate every week. All the flavors were hand-crafted and created to be as ooey and gooey as possible to satisfy your tastebuds," Chip City says on its website.

The menu changes each week to offer classic flavors and seasonal varieties.

With Valentine's Day on the horizon, Chip City is introducing a special Valentine’s Day-themed tin available at all locations, which is an add-on of $12.50.

The tin fits at least six cookies for your loved one to enjoy.

Chip City was started in Astoria, Queens, N.Y., in July 2017 by two childhood friends, Peter Phillips and Teddy Gailas, who were looking to recreate tastes from their childhoods.

A fun challenge to see who could create the best cookie eventually turned into Chip City and a small storefront.

The brand now has over 30 locations across New York City and Long Island, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, Maryland and Massachusetts, with plans to enter into new markets in 2024.
