Fixing a broken login or a stuck A/B test shouldn't mean signing out of every other site. Here's how to wipe just the one, three ways, from quickest to most precise.
Heads up: clearing a site's cookies logs you out of it and clears anything else stored server-side against that cookie (like a shopping cart). It won't touch your saved passwords.
With the site open, click the site-information icon just left of the address bar (a padlock or tune/sliders icon, depending on your Chrome version and the site's connection). Choose Cookies (or Third-party cookies), then Manage cookies and site data (wording varies slightly by version). You'll see the cookies set by the site you're currently viewing, with a delete/trash icon next to them — click it, then reload the page. This is the fastest route when you're already on the problem site and don't want to dig through Settings.
This list is organized by site, and removing an entry clears everything Chrome has stored for it, not just cookies (also local/session storage, cache and similar). If you only want the cookies gone and want to keep the site's local data, the DevTools method below gives you that finer control.
Open DevTools (F12, or right-click the page → Inspect) → Application tab → Storage in the left sidebar → Clear storage. Untick everything except Cookies, then click Clear site data. This clears only cookies (leaving localStorage, cache, etc. alone), scoped to the site you have open.
Alternatively, still in the Application panel, expand Cookies in the sidebar, click the site's entry to see every individual cookie in a table, and delete rows one at a time (select a row, press the delete key, or use the toolbar's clear icon to remove all of them at once). This is the only built-in way to delete a single named cookie rather than everything a site set.
A site's cookies aren't always all set on its own exact domain. A page on app.example.com can be sent cookies set on .example.com (a parent domain), on other paths, and, for some embedded content, cookies scoped to a partition tied to the top-level site (CHIPS/partitioned cookies). Clearing "the site" in Chrome's Site settings list groups things by registrable domain, which usually catches parent-domain cookies too, but the DevTools per-domain cookie table shown in section 3 lists rows by the exact domain string a cookie was set on — so a stray cookie set on a parent domain can be easy to miss if you're deleting rows by hand rather than using "Clear site data."
If you do this often — testing logins, clearing a stuck session, checking what a site sets — a cookie editor extension does it in one click from wherever you already are. Cookie Crate, which I make, has a Delete all button that removes every cookie that applies to the current site: its own, parent-domain, other-path, and partitioned cookies together, in one step, without opening Settings or DevTools. If there's one cookie you don't want swept up with the rest (a login you want to keep while clearing tracking cookies, say), you can mark it protected so "Delete all" skips it — that part is a Pro feature (€7 once); the "Delete all" button itself, and listing/editing/deleting individual cookies, is free. It only asks for access to the site you open it on, not your whole browsing.
