    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.

    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.

I was meeting a friend here yesterday who's visiting from California, and when deciding on a meeting place, we realized a bunch of the Gastown coffee roaster places were closed on Sunday, so I mentioned Breka , knowing it was opened 24/7. (LOVE this!). Plus, this site is close to Waterfront Station, and my friend had a busy day planned, taking the Seabus to N.Van and doing a lot of sightseeing. So this Breka was perfect. I was there early at 10 am-ish, and from the outset, I was impressed: exposed brick wall, long counter and display case, fully stocked with the most beautiful pastries and tarts and cakes, and lovely looking sandwiches, too....Just lovely. I ordered a tea from the guy taking the orders. At the check-out, the woman working the cashier was the most unfriendly, aloof person I have ever encountered at a Breka. She was downright dour. Never looked up, never smiled, said I owed X for the tea I ordered, gave me a receipt and said I was "number 3", no "thank you" (despite my saying thanks!), nothing. She looked really unhappy and bothered to be there. (I sat at a nearby table, waiting for my number to be called. I saw her interactions with all the people behind me - and there were quite a few, as it got suddenly busy in the cafe. She was cold and unfriendly to everyone in line as she rang them all up. These are mostly tourists! Why have a dour, borderline-hostile woman at the check-out counter of a busy cafe in a touristy part of our city? I just don't get it). Anyhow, I waited 10 minutes to hear my number called, but I never heard it. I walked up to the take-out area and there was my tea, on a receipt that said "number 3". Did they call out my number? I honestly don't know. I was seated at a table a few feet from the area and listening for my number and I didn't hear it called. I was not impressed with this set-up. Not at all. My friend arrived and got a chocolate concoction which looked amazing, and he loved it, so there's that. I still love Brekas but I probably won't return to this site. Between the cold experience at the cash and the prolonged waiting for my order (a cup of tea!), and not being sure if my order number was ever called, it just all left me with a bitter taste in my mouth.

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!
