About The Cookie People

The Cookie People is a vibrant independent bakery based in Scunthorpe, known for its handcrafted cookies, cookie dough, bars, and “muffies.” With two locations—Ashby High Street and The Hatch in Central Park—the business has become a local favourite for sweet treats and artisan coffee.

Each cookie is baked fresh and delivered across the UK, with vegan and dairy-free options available. Seasonal specials like Frozen Lemonade and Actual Hot Chocolate add variety to the menu, while 200° Coffee is served hot or iced by trained baristas. The Hatch location also offers pup cups for visiting dogs, reinforcing its dog-friendly ethos.

The Ashby store features a small seating area and stocks Doughpe Clothing, while The Hatch is open seven days a week and often closes when sold out. Both venues are known for their friendly service, creative flavours, and community engagement. Customers can also join the Cookie Club for weekly discounts and updates.

Whether you’re grabbing a quick snack, relaxing with coffee, or picking up a gift box, The Cookie People offers a warm and delicious experience. It’s a must-visit for cookie lovers and a standout in Scunthorpe’s food scene.
