These cookies are amazing!!! 🍪 🍪 🍪 If you come from 2 to 3 they give you a warm cookie with ice cream on top! 🤤 Also each cookie weighs a pound! Each month, they change their monthly cookie to something different, which makes you want to keep coming back! My personal favorites are coffee cake, cookies and cream, and the original chocolate chip! If you ever come to Disney Springs, DEFINITELY stop here! It’s life changing!!!!!
Pros:
Monthly cookie, tastes AMAZING, collectible cardsCons:

Above average cookies, I would say 1 cookie per 2 people as they can get sickly eating them on your own

Good tasting cookies, well priced and good portion sizeCons:

Love the theming of this place! I got the lemon poppyseed cookie & it had a lovely lemon flavor. Not too sweet, but also not too tart. The lemon flavor was real lemon not the weird artificial junk that tastes how dish soap smells.
Pros:
Travel well, huge portions!, unique flavor options, well done classic flavor optionsCons:
Long wait, but I plan on waiting for these cookies every trip nowReviewed by lyricrains Review Date: 05/03/2023

Ordered 5 cookies for family of 3 along with pistachio bites in a ready to go bag. Split one cookie for dessert following a meal at DS and took the rest of the wrapped loot in a zip lock baggie in my carry on back to CA. These cookies served as the consolation prize after our trip was over and tasted even better over time. Maybe because that’s all we had tangibly left of our trip. They traveled well and made me want to go back!
Pros:
Huge portions, great check in/call back system. Tastes unique for a cookie.Cons:
Entire concept (must try multiple flavors) encourages gluttony.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 01/24/2023

Delicious, thick and hearty cookies. However after the first bite, you get a cloyingly sweet after taste. Its sweetness hits hard.
To me, the chocolate banana bread cookie tasted like it had fake banana flavor added. I’m assuming real bananas were not used.
The January 2023 butterscotch and biscoff cookie was good. The butterscotch is more in the background and the biscoff cookie in the foreground. The combo gave it more of a gingerbread cookie vibe. Which isn’t a bad thing if you’re a gingerbread lover. I personally think gingerbread is just ok. But nonetheless it was a good cookie. The ultima tree winner was the coffee cake cookie. Omg! Better than most actual coffee cakes I’ve had. The streusel/crumble baked on the outside. Divine. perfect crunch, perfect flavor. I’ll dream about that cookie.
Lastly, I was excited to try the peanut butter cold brew and it was way too sweet. I threw it out. I should say, this is coming from someone that doesn’t put sugar in their coffee and doesn’t like overly sweet coffee drinks. I guess we all have different tastebuds. Anyway, I barely tasted peanut butter and coffee. Just an overly sweet milk drink that kinda had coffee and peanut butter flavor. Kinda…
Pros:
Delicious, hearty cookies Creative flavors The COFFEE CAKE COOKIE both the night and day one Great for sharingCons:

Full disclosure: You need to LOVE chocolate to love these cookies. BUT THEY ARE INCREDIBLE! With their size, they are perfect to share or save at the hotel for multiple days (in the fridge!), and worth every penny. Every flavor I have tried has been complex and unique with high quality ingredients.
I am not a cake person, but I gave their Peanut Butter Cup cake a shot... wow. Very dense, rich, quality cake. I couldn't finish it before I had to leave for the airport, but the size alone would have made it worth the price, let alone how flavorful it was!
Even if members of your family don't want sweets, make sure they go inside! This is one of the best themed places in all of Disney springs, and the employees are fun and kind. Worth the wait whether you are in the virtual queue or standby line.

Got into the virtual queue (4.5 hours) during the Christmas Holidays and those cookies were worth every minute .. .. Have been back 3x since (long flight from LA), making sure I run to get in line @ 9AM when the Garage opens and love all the cookies!
Pros:
All the cookies are dreamy (especially fresh)!Cons:

OMG!! It was a 5 hour virtual line. We left and were eating at Steakhouse 71 and I had to come back... and I wasn't even mad about it. The location was really cool... I scored and got there during hot cookie hour... which was awesome because we were there during a freezing cold and wet week so the hot cookie was nice. I got one of each of the cookies and a slice of cookies and cream cake... holy smokes... what a treat! They are living in my freezer now and I enjoy a little chunk at a time. The cookie bouncer had a Slytherin name badge on... the lady behind me said... ofcourse a Slytherin would stand between us and the cookies! haha it was so fun, everyone was in a great mood even on that cold cold Jan night.
Pros:
The vibes and cookies are next level!Cons:

Gideon's is absolutely amazing. Every time we are in Disney springs we will go unless the wait is absurdly long. The half pound cookies are all amazing, as well as the cake slices and coffee. The seasonal flavors are also very fun.
