I was honestly a little skeptical at first. I usually don't go for cookies that are really thick. Most of the time they look better than they taste, and I've had enough of those to know. I'm definitely a chocolate chip cookie connoisseur, so I'm picky when it comes to this kind of thing.
I only tried them because Starbucks was closed for renovations and I needed something to hold me over. I have to say, I was impressed. The cookies were actually really good. Great flavor and texture. They changed my mind.
The only downside for me is the price. Five dollars for one cookie just feels a bit too high. It's not that I'm being cheap, it just doesn't feel right for something like a cookie. I'd buy them again, just not as often as I would with Starbucks. More of a once in a while treat.
One thing that would definitely take them to the next level is if they could lightly warm them up when you order. A warm cookie just hits different, and it would really bring out the flavor and texture even more.
All in all, definitely worth trying. I'm glad I gave them a shot. read more
