After somehow walking blindly past this storefront twice on Thursday afternoon, a more eagle-eyed coworker snapped this photo of the upcoming Insomnia Cookies that is landing at 108 South 16th Street. Insomnia Cookies, for those who didn’t go to one of the fourteen colleges with a branch, offers cookies, brownies (and, of course, milk) for takeout and delivery.
A quick chat with a gentleman at the UPenn location revealed that Insomnia was hoping to open today but they were thwarted by the city. Now the earliest the new shop can open is Saturday–or definitely next week.
Insomnia Cookies was started by a University of Pennsylvania undergrad back in 2002. The business now has 19 locations from Syracuse, New York to East Lansing, Michigan.

Dig it: We’re giving away free cookies. Why? Because we love you. And we love cookies. And in this month’s issue of Philadelphia magazine, Christy Speer went out and talked to some of the best pastry chefs in the city (from 10 Arts, Parc, Le Bec-Fin and elsewhere) and gathered from them their most favorite-est holiday cookie recipes, all in anticipation of a winner-take-all cookie contest which will be taking place on December 9, from noon ’til 2pm (or until the cookies run out), at the rotunda at the Shops at Liberty Place. The chefs are all bringing their cookies with them. All you need to bring is your appetite.
Oh, and maybe you want to drop a couple bucks on some coffee at Saxby’s while you’re plowing your way through the free treats, because the pastry chef with the best cookies (as decided by you), will be getting all the proceeds collected from coffee sales between noon and 2pm to donate to their favorite charity.
