//The line

Schmackary's is a Hell's Kitchen cookie bakery known for a rotating lineup of oven-warm, inventive flavors, operating as a walk-up counter rather than a sit-down restaurant. Its shop on W 45th St sits in the Theater District, putting it in the path of pre- and post-Broadway-show foot traffic.

Reviewers describe the wait as generally reasonable — one Tripadvisor review put it at roughly five minutes for a cookie to come out of the oven — though it can run longer when a fresh batch is in demand or during busy evening and weekend stretches. With well over 2,300 Yelp reviews for the shop, it clearly draws steady walk-up crowds, but there's no indication of a formal line-management or reservation system; it's simply order-and-wait at the counter.

//When the line peaks
