fortune cookies near me

Here are some easy ways to get fortune cookies near you, plus a quick “trend” scoop.

1. Easiest way: delivery apps

Open any major food/delivery app in your area (like Uber Eats, DoorDash, Deliveroo, Just Eat, etc.) and:

1. Enter your delivery address.
2. Search for “fortune cookies” or “Chinese”.
3. Check:
   • Chinese restaurants that include fortune cookies with meals.
   • Grocery/Asian markets that sell boxes or bags of fortune cookies.
4. Filter by:
   • “Snacks” or “Dessert”.
   • Open now / delivery time.

Many apps even have a dedicated “Asian snacks” or “Pan-Asian” section where fortune cookies often show up with other treats.

2. Places locally that usually have them

When you’re out and about, your best bets are:

• Chinese restaurants (especially takeout-style spots).
• Buffet-style Asian restaurants.
• Asian supermarkets or international grocery aisles.
• Party supply stores (they sometimes stock bulk or novelty fortune cookies).
• Big-box grocery stores with an “Asian” section, often near soy sauce and noodles.

If you want to be sure, you can call ahead and ask:
“Do you sell fortune cookies separately, or only with meals?”

3. Online custom & fancy fortune cookies

If you’re okay with ordering online (for a party, event, or just for fun), lots of shops let you:

• Buy:
  • Chocolate-dipped fortune cookies.
  • Colored or flavored fortune cookies.
  • Giant single fortune cookie with a long custom message.
• Customize:
  • Your own messages for birthdays, proposals, office events, or inside jokes.
  • Packaging (company logo, wedding theme, etc.).

Search phrases like:

• “custom fortune cookies”
• “personalized fortune cookies”
• “giant fortune cookie gift”

4. Little “Quick Scoop” on fortune cookies (fun bit)

• Fortune cookies are more of a modern Chinese‑American invention than a traditional Chinese dessert.
• They’ve become a kind of mini‑social‑media moment: people post their fortunes when they’re weirdly accurate or hilariously wrong.
• For trends: custom “salty” or brutally honest fortunes, and themed fortune cookies for Lunar New Year, weddings, and corporate events are popular right now.
