Box of cookies with a note congratulating me on my new job
Cecilia M.

I just started a new job on the first week of November (yay!) and while it's been weird starting a new job working remotely from home my new team was kind enough to send me a box of Cookies by George. Their office called me the day before delivery, confirming my delivery address and preferred time. This was really nice but did spoil the surprise a little, which I don't mind! Now I don't have much of a sweet tooth, especially for cookies, but their Macadamia nut cookies are SO good! I especially LOVE how the cookies are the perfect size and are so chewy and soft! I received a box of 13 assorted cookies and ended up eating 2 on the first day. I eventually gave the rest away but those who I shared my cookies with raved how delicious the cookies were plus I also inspired one of my friends to send a box of Cookies by George to someone. If you're looking to treat yourself, or someone else, would definitely recommend Cookies by George. They are a nice alternative, especially during the Holidays, to the traditional chocolate boxes.

No clue why Cookies By George is getting so much hate, I freaking love them. I think they're better than Subway cookies, and that's a very very very high compliment from me. So...I'm trying to eat really healthy and avoid sugar. Yada yada yada, boring boring. Anyways, my mom came back with a pack of these cookies and I caved and had 2. Sue me. All their cookies are baked fresh daily. They're soft, moist, chewy, and melt in your mouth. I tried both the chocolate chip and the double choclate chunk. Both were delicious and full of chocolate goodness. After the gym I also had a nibble (yes really, just a nibble) of the lemon cookie, which was equally yummy. Whatever, I earned it. I usually don't have the biggest sweet tooth, but I would've eaten the whole box if I could. Thank the universe that there isn't a Cookies By George closer to my house.

Peanut butter chocolate and white chocolate macadamia :)

They're located in Royal Centre and I've tried a few different cookies now. They're always buttery, soft and fresh! They're not big but always delicious!

Cookies by George is the default snack that most of my teammates & I pick up to treat the team when we are feeling generous. Its location in Royal Centre mall is very convenient, since it is directly on the way to our office if we are coming from Burrard Skytrain Station. The cookies are freshly baked, thick, relatively chunky, chewy, and rich in taste (ie, very sweet). They taste good, but nothing particularly special to rave about. My faves are the white chocolate chunk & the white chocolate macadamia ones. A decadent snack that gives everyone on the team a sugar high to kick-start the day, but a bit of a splurge at $2 per cookie.

I love these cookies even though I know they are not healthy. Yes my mom always tells me not to eat these stuff. But they are good. A bit greasy but who cares. Used to come here more often when working downtown. Now its like a treat. They closes too early. At 5:30 closed and all good cookies might be sold out at even 5pm. I will never make it downtown. Also not open on weekend. Their cookies are not overly sweet too.

if you come later in the afternoon, there might not be many cookies left for you.

I thought the cookies were soft and tasty. You can't really have more than a few though, because they're real sweet and rich. Definitely taste like they're made same day. Smallish. Each cookie will run you about $1.50, but if you compare that to what they are selling at the Starbucks a few feet away, the price doesn't seem that bad. So decent, but no comparison to Blue Chip Cookies at UBC. Those guys are playing in a different league all together. If you come later in the afternoon, you'll find most of the cookies will be gone (see picture), so for the best selection come earlier. One thing that bothered me was that, on a recent visit, I ordered a half dozen cookies to have at home later (not just for me). The lady was stuffing the cookies in the paper slip bags when I asked if she could put it in a cardboard box. Nope. If I wanted a box for a half dozen, I'd have to buy one of the special red gift boxes that they put a bow ontop of as a gift. I pointed to the white cardboard boxes already assembled on the shelf behind her. Nope. I have to order 12 cookies to get the basic box, otherwse, all your cookies are going to be in a paper slip, that you could throw into a plastic bag. The cookies made it to their destination unharmed, but still, not cool that they would be so stingy about a cardboard box after I spent 9 bucks on pieces of dough that cost them pennies.

I love these cookies. Yes, they're greasy, much smaller than they use to be and "of course", the price has gone up. Today I purchased 3 cookies (you'll need to remember this, it's important); reverse almond, milk and classic. As the lady is bagging my cookies, I get out my wallet and my three cookie cards. Note: if you buy 12 cookies you get one cookie free but we'll get back to that. Only one of my cards had been stamped 12 times, yippee free cookie for me. I hand it to her she then tells me the price of 2 cookies. $3.91 please. After I get my change, I ask her to combine the two other cards. She does, then I had to ask her for 2 stamps for cookies I paid for. She stood there looking at me as though she didn't understand. I think once she realized I was serious and I was going nowhere until I got my 2 stamps, she took them and stamped them with a look of disgust! Why offer a rewards program if you don't want to honor it? To make matters worst there are all these rules around the cookie card. Note: if you buy a dozen cookies they will only give 6 stamps! Why? I suppose it's their policy but it's a crummy policy. I detest companies who offer a "rewards program" (rolling eyes) and then have ridiculous policies that only make you feel ripped off! Ever since the Metrotown & Denman locations of C by G closed, customer service went down the tubes. If I happen to be in Royal Centre, I'll drop in for a cookie, I WILL NOT be making any special trips.

Usually for last few years I've been ordering from Esther at Dipnsip & Unni Pastries. I was…read morereferred at my friend's wedding as I was looking for cakes and pastries for in-laws. Well it seems ownership has changed and the new owner doesn't give two craps about prior customers, honoring discounts, replying back timely or being more friendly? Was playing email tag and finally submitted the 39 flavors and didn't hear back until after another week and then told they won't deliver only in morning when they know our reservation was for 730pm and they're open until 9? I even replied back and nothing. We own and run several business in lower mainland and in United States and this customer service from Unni Pastries is trash. At least you can do is reply back and apologize? For wasting time when I specifically told you it's for family and friends flying into town for a funeral burial. Will never use their business again. I highly suggest Mello. They replied and helped me out last minute. Shame on you! Learn how to run a business and treat customers esp previous customers who were supporting the business and fellow Krn but it's clear the new owner doesn't care about the customer or quality it's all about quantity. Maybe my 39 donuts which I offered to pay extra for time and packaging wasn't large enough but money is money. Especially during this time and economy. You should've at least replied back and even tried asking us to do pickup as the restaurant is down the road. Do better! Go to Mello which isn't too far and they bake fresh daily better pricing and reviews and consistency!

Also a lot of red bean. For savoury, they have large paninis and lasagna. The service is friendly and there's sufficient indoor seating.

A very nostalgic old Hong Kong decor dessert spot offering many authentic Hong Kong style desserts…read more Their expansive menu includes traditional hot dessert such as red bean soup, black sesame and almond paste. And also the more modern cold desserts such as mango, ube sago and even grass jellies. We opt to order their ube trio and it was heavenly. It had an authentic and strong ube taste. The sagos were cooked just right with the perfect texture and most importantly, it wasn't too sweet. We also ordered their instagram worthy mahjong tiles which is essentially red bean and coconut pudding. It's very cute and definitely instagram worthy. It's not too sweet and I liked that it came with a side of red bean sauce which made it less dry. The money is also made of edible paper but we didn't touch it cuz it felt weird eating it. However, it wasn't anything special and we wouldn't order it again. It was quite busy when we arrived on a Friday night but it's much easier to go in a smaller party. We were a party of 2 and walked right in even though others were waiting because they needed a bigger table. The place is clean and service was fast. They don't have a time limit even though they are busy so it's a great hang out spot. We would definitely be back to try out other items they have to offer.

It's a nice place for Asian dessert. They also have some Hong Kong style snacks and Asian dim sum I…read morehave yet to try. I like getting their tofu dessert though. And right now (not sure until when) they have a giant sandpit installed in the middle of their store. If you spend $25, you get to play with their toy excavator. And if you collect over 30g of gems, you can spin the wheel and win prizes. (Big prize = $20 coupon) Great for keeping kids and adults that are still kids at heart (myself included), happily occupied.

Waaah I loved this place! Vancouver, how lucky you are to have Konbiniya!…read more Walking into this place felt a little bit like being transported into Japan. I'm from the Bay Area and we have our fair share of Japanese grocery stores (shout out to Niiya in Japantown in San Francisco) but I was very excited to see the selection here. Definitely came across items I've never seen before like a Takoyaki flavored Ramune. It was extremely discounted just fyi probably for good reason. They even had Japanese canned drinks stored hot like in Japan! The take away Japanese desserts also looked good. This place is right on Robson street so a great place to grab a snack, drink, pick me up while shopping. Prices seemed reasonable. One caveat is that it can get busy in here and the aisles are small so it felt a little crowded but that's sort of like Japan as well lol so not a big deal for me. Added to the ambience. Checkout was quick and easy!

Extensive selection of all manner of…read morecandies, onigiri (rice and seasonings wrapped in crisp seaweed), matcha-flavoured snacks, soy sauces, numerous styles of miso paste...you get the idea. It sounds crowded - and it is - but once you push your way to the back of the store, you'll find a tiny Japan tour travel agency and a shelf of clearance items at rock-bottom prices. Service is cheerful, personable and brisk. The store also houses a takeaway crepe and ice cream shop - the crepes are actually better than the ones I've had in Tokyo.
