Larry's Cookies & Ice Cream

I know it's early but, when I see ice cream my eyes get big. The sign caught my eye when I saw Larry's Cookies and ice cream. I didn't even entertain the cookies. I just had to have cream. No one else was in line for I've cream at ten a.m. Lol. The lady who waited on me was ok. Not talkative at all but, maybe it's just too early. The place is located in the food court. It's a well lit place. I enjoyed my praline pecan ice cream in the very well lit dining area. My ice cream was delicious.

Larry's was a really good find on you trip to DC. They offered several ice cream flavors and the service line moved quickly. Very good option for a quick stop when you need a little refreshment.

I tried the chocolate chip pecan and macadamia nut cookies and they were "eh". My daughter seemed to like the ice cream though.

It's almost 100 degrees out and you decide that you want something chocolatey that hasn't been done before near your building. You're at Metro Center, you yelp "chocolate" and you see "Larry's Cookies" come up. You think to yourself, "hmmm a nice chocolate chip cookie could be good right now. But I'm not going to the Old Post Office Building, maybe it's time for a mini adventure!" So you walk out in the heat, you walk towards the allure of a fresh chocolate chip cookie and you wander and review the directions on yelp indicating between 8th and 9th street. You finally find this plaza in between said streets and you wonder, "where could this cookie sanctuary be?"You put your Nancy Drew hat on and decide that it must be in one of these buildings somewhere so you walk into one that says, "Food Court Downstairs." You walk down the escalator and you see a sign that points you to Larry's Cookies on the right. You make a right turn and what do you see? Why, the shiny, white interior of little Larry's Cookies AND ICE CREAM! "Well then." You think to yourself, "I guess this is it. Let's see if this journey was worth it." At 2:00 in the afternoon you are left with a minimal selection of cookies, many muffins, ice cream and coffee and tea beverages. You choose to stay focused on your cookie mission and you choose the pecan chocolate chip cookie for $1.35 (including tax). You take your large cookie in it's white bakery bag and you go back into the heat. You take a bite while in the plaza of K street towards Chinatown and you think to yourself,"Was this worth it?" It's a nice cookie, but not the best. It's a little dry, it's a little bland, but it's ok. It is not worthy of another journey in 100 degree heat from the tourist haven of Metro Center to the wildnerness of lower K street. To paraphrase T-Pain, "It's two o clock in the pm. Work day got boring. You said you're eating dessert soon. So I snuck off to K street..."

Nothing spectacular but definitely worthwhile. The cookies are fresh and plentiful for a very reasonable price. The ice cream selection is very basic but not bad - roughly 16 flavors like your basic cookies and cream, Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, mint chocolate chip, vanilla, etc. The cookie selection isn't bad either - I personally liked the M&M cookie myself!

ice cream is good, but not amazing. cookies are huge and look very good. the place itself is confusing to find, you need to go inside trade center-through security-down stairs- into food court

Large cookies for the price and location. Service was quick. Ambiance was that of a food court since it's located in a food court

Nice big cookies, very tasty. I don't understand why I need to have an 85 character review.

I got an iced chai latte and IT WAS SO GOOD S O G O O Dthe oatmeal raisin cookie was really good too

I would recommend this to anyone. I came to D.C. from out of town and ended up eating at this food court. I got the birthday cake ice cream and red velvet cookies. The cookie was to die for. Although it's on the pricier side you get a huge cooke for a fare price. I loved this and would eat again and again if I return to D.C.
