There are simple pleasures that brighten up a day, and a good cookie, still warm and melt-in-the-mouth from Elis Cookies, is certainly one of them. What sets Elis Cookies apart is the fusion of the American cookie tradition and Belgian chocolate expertise. Eli, a trained artisan chocolatier, carefully selects his ingredients to offer authentic and intense flavors. Far from industrial production, each cookie is prepared on site, in an open workshop where the aroma of chocolate and fresh butter welcomes you as soon as you walk in.
Revisited classics and hybrid creations: a temple of indulgence!
The menu offers generously revisited classics. Among the must-haves, the famous N.Y. cookie with walnuts and dark chocolate stands out for its texture, which is crispy on the outside and incredibly melt-in-the-mouth on the inside. It’s a sure bet for all purists in search of the perfect cookie.
But the real star, the one that has all of Brussels running, is the unmissable Crookie. This hybrid creation is the perfect marriage of a pure butter croissant and a chocolate-rich cookie dough. The result? A delight that is flaky, soft, and crispy, redefining the codes of pastry. An experience not to be missed. In fact, you might be interested in a quick taste while strolling down nearby Avenue Louise, known for its elegant boutiques.
The place to go for a gourmet break in Brussels
Eli’s creativity doesn’t stop there. The workshop also offers original creations such as the Brookie, which combines the melt-in-the-mouth texture of a brownie with the crunch of a cookie.

Each visit is a new opportunity to discover sweet treats prepared with love and a touch of originality.
