Chip City

Chip City makes giant, gooey gingerbread cookies that feel like holding a small holiday moment in your hands. The Gingy Crunch is warm with cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, and the spices hit your nose before the first bite. Soft pockets of white chocolate melt into the dough, while the crunchy Biscoff topping adds a cozy, satisfying snap. They bake everything fresh each day, and the shop feels playful and bright.
