MOLTN Cookies Set To Open In Ashburn After Delays

ASHBURN, VA — After months of delays, MOLTN Cookies is ready to open its new facility in Ashburn. The location, inside Eataliano in Broadlands Center Plaza, will open on Monday, which is also National Cookie Day.

The facility has seen several false starts and missed anticipated opening dates in October and November. MOLTN founder Neal Miglani told Patch that the delays were caused by a defective oven and supply chain issues.

"We are thrilled to bring the MOLTN Cookies brand to Ashburn and beyond. The excitement around our new location at Eataliano signals the start of an even more exciting phase for us as we plan to expand across the DMV area," Miglani said. "Soon, more communities will be able to enjoy the MOLTN Cookies experience."

MOLTN Cookies started in Arlington at AllSpice Catering before spreading to Dupont Circle in Washington, D.C. at Teddy & The Bully Bar. The Ashburn location will be the third MOLTN Cookies operation. The facility bakes its cookies in ghost kitchens.

"The path from Arlington to Dupont Circle, and now Ashburn, has been deeply fulfilling. We have received so much love and support along the way that words can hardly express our gratitude,” Miglani said. “Now, we’re beyond excited to become part of Ashburn’s vibrant community. We can't wait to meet our new neighbors and share our passion for creating the freshest cookies possible."

To celebrate the grand opening and National Cookie Day, MOLTN will give customers a free cookie-scented candle with any purchase of $75 or more on Monday. The candles are available in Sugar and S'mores scents.

The Ashburn location will operate from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day after it opens. Cookie orders can be placed on the brand's website or through Uber Eats, DoorDash, GrubHub, and Postmates.
