Calling all cookie lovers.

A Washington bakery was named the best in the state for its cookies, according to Yelp.

Bell’s Cookie Co. in Seattle landed a top spot on the Nov. 23 list for its “delicious and gooey” freshly made treats.

The company opened in June and serves up all the classic flavors — or what the owners call “nostalgic tastes.”

Think red velvet, chocolate chunk, snickerdoodle, confetti, Colombian corn and triple peanut butter and oats, among other flavors.

The shop also serves up a vegan and gluten free double chocolate cookie with almond flour.

Although their business opened in June, husband-and-wife owners Tomas and Brooke Perez got the idea to start a cookie company in 2019, according to their website.

But it wasn’t until the COVID-19 pandemic that the couple decided to officially launch their business. They named the cookie shop after their daughter Isabella, who was over a year old at the time, Tomas told McClatchy News.

Customers can order cookies from their store in the Green Lake neighborhood in Seattle, or orders can be shipped nationally.

Yelp identified the best cookie spots in every state by reviewing businesses in the bakery, dessert and cookies categories. Then it reviewed ratings and the volume of ratings on each business between Jan. 1, 2001, and Oct. 17, 2021.
