Gideons cookies

[sha9]

We passed by yesterday and enquired about how the virtual queue worked. As it happened they had a last minute cancellation and let us in straight away. The cookies were nice enough but as a previous poster said, not sure why they need to be salted? As with a lot of things at Disney I think it’s over-hyped. I’m glad we tried it but wouldn’t have stood in a massive queue for them.

There were a few sprinkles of sea salt but nothing overwhelming to me. Of course it's fairly expensive for a cookie but they go far, we split one 3 ways and was plenty! I wouldn't buy one everyday but worth a splurge on holiday. As we went in the morning queueing was minimal. Nicer than any treat I bought in the actual parks anyway!

We love their cookies - we have just come back from our trip and we did drive out to their other location which was a fun drive and there was a nice noodle restaurant for lunch - we ordered online the day before and were able to just walk up and collect the order with no wait.

I thought it was underwhelming. I have a major sweet tooth but I thought it was too sweet with too much going on. Just a big mouthful of sweet stuff with a sharp saltiness every few chews. Fine, tasty but not worth the money or a long wait. Levain Bakery in NYC is still the best cookie I have ever tasted. They are also huge and pricey but every bite is pure delicious cookie rather than pile of sweet stuff.

To be honest I knew that I wouldn’t particularly like them before I tried them but everyone raves about them so thought I would try. To me the is just far too much chocolate chips and not enough cookie. I had one bite and that was enough for me. I really don’t understand the need for the salt either

Queuing for a cookie. Think I’ll
Pass on that one. Is this the latest hype or are they genuinely the best cookies money can buy?

What about the cakes?
They look more appetising to be honest, so I'd probably be more likely to queue for those lol. Has anybody had any of those?

In my opinion it’s hype but that’s only my opinion.

My parents did and the word my Mum used was “vile”. She said the cake was ok but there was far too much icing. I didn’t taste it myself.

Ahh see I like a cake with a lot of icing, so they may be the right choice for me!

I imagine my mum will have the same reaction as yours though! 😂

It’s always difficult giving an opinion on food. We’re all different and things I like other people would probably turn their noses up at.
