Santa Stops at Half Baked Cookies

Santa Claus is flying to select locations all over the 716 area to meet the great people of Western New York, and for the next two Saturdays, he'll make his first stop at Half Baked Cookies!

This Saturday, November 22nd, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, Santa will be visiting Half Baked Cookies at 5091 Day Rd. Lockport, NY 14094, and next Saturday, November 29th, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, he will be at their 5407 Sheridan Drive, Williamsville, NY 14221 location to spread some Christmas cheer and pick up his favorite cookies!

This event is part of The New 96.1's Santa Stops event. We've partnered with Adam's Nursery to bring Santa to select locations where kids and families will be able to meet and get free pictures with the big man, along with other special gifts.

Both Saturdays at Half Baked Cookies, there will be:

• Free pictures with Santa
• One free fresh-baked cookie for each child made by Half Baked Cookies
• Free Candy Canes
• Fun activities and prizes
• Families will be able to sign up for a chance to win a family-four-pack of tickets to see The Nutcracker presented by the Greater Niagara Ballet Company.

Half Baked Cookies is a delicious bakery with locations in Lockport on Day Road, Williamsville on Sheridan Drive, and Buffalo on Elmwood Ave. At each location, cookies are made from scratch using locally-sourced ingredients. Half Baked Cookies creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere where people can unwind, grab a treat, and share a smile. Open every day, they offer fresh-baked cookies, Perry’s Ice Cream, and seasonal drinks.

Half Baked Cookies says, "We don't just make cookies, we make little moments of joy, and that's why every cookie comes with a sprinkle of love." Angie, the founder, of says their values are: "Warmth in how we treat people. Hard work in everything we do. Craftsmanship in every cookie and every detail."

While you're at Half Baked Cookies this Saturday to meet Santa and refill your holiday cheer, make sure you also check out the tasty treats Angie's and the team are baking!
