AMAZING cookies! They were not kidding when they said they stand behind their craft. I've been on a cookie streak recently and have tried many different shops in the area with over 4.5+ in ratings. Most often than not, I left feeling disappointed. Cookies would either be stale, too hard, too brittle, too sweet, or pretty good but not worth $5-6. This is one cookie shop worth talking about. They carried all the exotic flavors, with the right texture and sweetness. I look forward to trying other flavors next time I visit. 1. Guava Cheese (9.5/10) - I love guava, and I love cheese but unfortunately for me, I can't do goat anything. Though there's only a hint of goat cheese, it's still there and you can taste it, if you are sensitive like me. Otherwise, it would've been a 10/10. Amazing texture and flavor. You will love this if goat cheese is your jam. 2. Matcha Strawberry Yuzu Mochi (9/10) - it's ALL there! A melange of different flavors that blend quite beautifully. Mochi is a little gritty (don't expect Japanese mochi texture here), but the cookie itself was so good and that touch of yuzu was exceptional. 3. Mango Sticky Rice (8.5/10) - Again, another unique flavor mix that was really nice. Sticky rice on top tends to get a little hard over time, but if you're a mango fan, this would be a flavor for you. They did not skimp on the ingredients and there's enough dried mango chunks for you to enjoy with every bite!

I've been here a few times and tried several cookies -guava and cheese, passion fruit and strawberry (?), cardamom and brown butter chocolate chip, and fruity pebbles. Guava is my favorite by far. Reminds me of a Porto's pastry. Very friendly staff and a lot of options to choose from. I did t think I'd pay $5 for a cookie but it's well worth it!

I love these cookies so much! The husband and wife team - Jay & Leilani - of Leid are so sweet. There are so many cookie shops around town but they're unique flavors make this worth your stop. They also have rotating new flavors being introduced each month. There's a cute little gift section and beautiful crystals for sale if you're on the way to a birthday party. Parking can be a little tough, but so worth it to taste these delightful ingredient and homemade flavors For instance, their mango, sticky rice has real strips of mango. I'm not talking tiny pieces I mean large strips. You just don't find cookies like these anymore

First time visit yesterday based on recommendation. Hands down best cookies in LA. Tried 4 different flavors, all great. Will definitely be going back. Wonderful presentation and unique flavors. Large cookies that are worth the cost.

Stopped by to pick up half a dozen of cookies for the first time and I am happy that I did! Lei'd Cookies is located at the shop that Coolhaus Ice Cream formerly resided at. With a fresh new look, Lei'd stands out with the beautiful orchid mural giving the front a tropical feel. Inside, is a map of the world, which highlights one of the many aspects as to what makes it unique- cookies are inspired by flavors from all over the world. The cookies are priced at around $5 each and they are large (I was pretty full after finishing one) and for flavors you won't find anywhere else. On display, you will see samples of the cookies they have for the day as well as the country of origin. The cookies are moist and dense full of flavor but not over the top. I don't have a favorite yet but the ones that stood out for me in my box was the Hawaiian, the Smores, and the cardamom pistachio. The shop also carries items from local artisans from Flyplant, Rikki's candles, just to name a few. I picked up some Be Bright "Sojourner" coffee beans while I was here. Customer service was awesome. I believe one of the owners greeted me and he was pretty friendly when I was picking up my order. He gave me a bit of a background story as to how the business started and how it grew. This is definitely a small local business to look for and look after. Adding Lei'd Cookies as one of the local businesses to pick up gifts for friends and family from.

Saw this while driving around Culver City and I'm so happy that I stopped by! Such a wide selection of unique cookies, it was tough to decide which ones to take home to try however, my friend and I practiced some self control and ordered a box of 4 to share. I really enjoyed my Hawaiian Cookie & Brown Butter Chocolate Chip. I enjoyed the slightly crisp edges and soft center. Plus the cookies are huge! So worth it. Can't wait to stop by for another visit and try something new. Highly recommend!
Straight up some of the best cookies I've ever had. Excellent service, dude was very nice and passionate. 5/5 can't recommend enough!

Absolutely ridiculous how good these cookies are. The owner is lovely. The variety of delicious options is something you have to experience for yourself.

Absolutely the best cookies. I became a fan of Lei'd cookies when they would pop up at events. It's great to see the store front and walk into the building which smells AMAZING! The owner was inside and is so friendly and even through in an extra cookie for our friend who was in from out of town. Must Try: Make sure you visit regularly because the seasonal cookies change. I got the following: - Guava Cheese - Smores - Strawberry Passionfruit - Fruit Pebble Cereal - (Chocolate) Brown Butter Highly recommended for all your cookie desires.

We came by here tonight and tried the guava cheese and the mango sticky rice cookies and both were amazing! I love the unique flavors. The mango sticky rice was our favorite because it was soft gooey and perfectly lightly sweet. The guava cheese reminded me so much of Porto's! The person working tonight was very friendly as well. We will be back!
