Cookies By George

I ordered Cookies to be delivered the next day, they were prompt (even made it before lunch) and so delicious!!!

Make sure to read the fine print on deliveries! Cookies by George delivered my Valentine’s Day package a day before the date I requested and paid for. I assumed it was an error, but after digging through the depths of their website I eventually found the fine print in their shipping policy that explains they will deliver outside of the date that you request and pay for. Had this info been easily visible on their website, I simply would have ordered the same products from one of the many vendors offering the same service in my area. I won’t order again.

If I am going to have a cookie, it will be Cookies by George. Duh! Best cookies around, they are yummy, gooey and yummy, and gooey and I heard low in calories!!! *sigh* I wish!
However they are worth the extra hole in your belt!

I ordered the «THE OFFICE TIN $ 84.95: 55 gourmet cookies gift wrapped in an extra large shiny red tin with cellophane, ribbon, and a gift tag» to be sent to my fiancé for his 30^th birthday in his dental office in Sylvan Lake, AB. I am from Toronto and was really impressed with the great customer service I received from the CBG staff. Before I ordered I emailed asking about sizes and received an informative reply helping me select which arrangement to go with. I also called customer service today to ask about the status of my order in the afternoon as I became a bit worried. I believe I spoke with Lauren on the phone where she reassured me and even called Purolator and left a message on my phone after to let me know the cookies were just delivered.
My fiancé and his office staff loved the cookies! I will definitely order from Cookies By George in the future! Great customer service and super yummy cookies!!!

Excellent cookies, baked goods etc. The M&M cookie and Nanaimo Bar are my favourites, but you’ll hardly go wrong with any of the other choices. It’s more expensive than a Tim Hortons, but it is totally worth it. Staff is always friendly, patient and helpful. Avoid getting a milk from the fridge there though, mine has been frozen on a few occasions. Perhaps just turn the temperature slightly up? A small quibble for an otherwise great place.

These bad boys aren’t as good as mom makes but their right up there.
I know cookies. These cookies make me feel like the cookie monster!
No matter what kind you get you’ll love everything about em exept for the lonnng lineups that stand between you and more cookies.

FLASHBACK:
Scene: 7:45 AM, Monday morning, HUB Mall. 2006. Subway stage right, Cookies By George stage left. A queue about six students deep has formed at CBG.
Enter our protagonist, a twenty-​something woman, looking remarkably fantastic given this ungodly hour of the morning. She wears a cardigan over a tank with a patterned A-​line skirt, super cute shoes, and a messenger bag, NOT a backpack, duh. She joins the line-​up for cookies.
The line moves quickly and she digs through her purse for her coffee stamp card and cookie stamp card, both half-​stamped. She reaches the front of the line.
WOMAN: Extra large coffee and a peanut bu -.
CASHIER: The usual, eh?
She hands over a carefully-​counted amount of change, drops an extra quarter in the tip jar, exchanges her stamp cards, then picks up her coffee cup and peanut butter cookie. Moves to the self-​serve coffee station.
She fills her cup ¾ through with a flavoured roast, then pumps in hazelnut creamer to the brim. She shakes three sugar packets, rips them open, and dumps them into the cup. Her coffee has turned a pale beige colour. She’s about to bite into her cookie when —
Enter a second woman, around the same age, glistening from the gym, hurrying past the line-​up. She sports all Lululemon, from her bag and her leggings to her headband.
WOMAN 2: Hey Britt! See you in class?
WOMAN: Huh? Oh, hey — yeah, I’ll, uh — just getting coffee for a friend…
The second woman continues down HUB. The first woman looks at her stamp cards.
Words flash across the screen:
FRIENDS DON’T LET FRIENDS GAIN THE FRESHMAN FIFTEEN, NO MATTER HOW MOTHER-​EFFING DELICIOUS THOSE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES AND COFFEE CREAMERS ARE.

Without a doubt, the best cookies I’ve ever had! Ask for the Classic Chocolate Chunk.

When I attended the U of A, there was a year where I actually came here for breakfast and coffee EVERY DAY. It was my guilty pleasure. I would usually get a large coffee and a poppy seed scone. Even if there’s a lineup, they are pretty efficient.
If you have an 8 am class like I did, you know how important it is to have motivation to go… my motivation to go was that if I got to class early, I would treat myself to breakfast and a coffee.
Overall, it’s better quality than Tim Hortons, in HUB (which is important if you’re an arts student and never leave Humanities/​FAB like I did), and you won’t spend 25 minutes in line like you will at Starbucks. For that reason, I give it 5 stars.
Oh, and I’m not sure if this location does this… but try the «Georgewich.» It’s an ice cream sandwich/​mouth orgasm that consists of 2 cookies of your choice with vanilla ice cream in the middle. SOOO GOOD!

Always have good cookies.
I would like more diverse cookies, where are the hermits.
I can always settle for peanut butter.
the traffic is not that bad, everyone is in a rush.

I love Cookies by George with my whole heart, I don’t think I would be able to get through some days at the University without it! They have the best flavoured coffee and delicious cookies. I’m a huge fan of their scones as well. The cookies are best when they are still warm and fresh from the oven! The only thing that frustrates me is when they run out of Hazelnut or French Vanilla creamer… that and when they close early, which happened a few times last year during exams (not a good time to play with a students caffeine intake). Other than that I love CBG, they have a really great loyalty program (buy 6 coffees get a free one!), a lot better than many other coffee houses in Edmonton. I wish they would open up more Cookies by George’s around the city, as I would definitely take advantage of them. I love Cookies by George and will forever be a regalar.

Great cookies, awful service for delivery. I must admit, I love these cookies but after my 2^nd attempt at trying to share my love for these cookies via delivering them to friends, I give up! The first time I used their online system to deliver cookies, they didn’t deliver on the date required, resulting in me missing my best friends birthday! On 2^nd attempt, I called the HUB mall location to deliver to the UofA hospital. No delivery made, no attempt to contact me and let me know. It’s just too bad they can’t get their act together. Why buy flowers when you could have cookies??? Because they will get delivered!

My quality of life at university would be seriously diminished in the absence of Cookies By George. I visit here once or twice a week for coffee and delicious soft gooey cookies. Never a disappointment! The coffee club and cookie club cards have gotten me tons of free indulgences too, so I really appreciate that little reward :) Buy a box of a dozen assorted cookies for your coworkers and you’ll probably get promoted.

Everytime i am around I «need» to have a chocolate cookie. I love how the chocolate are still hot when you eat them. Amazing place and definetely a must visit.

I think I now know what heaven must taste like.
I ordered a chocolate chip cookie from Cookies by George and it was out of this world. They were warm too so the cookie just melted in my mouth. It felt like there was a chocolate chip orgy inside of my mouth.
Good thing I don’t attend the University of Alberta because I would have gained at least 30 pounds by being anywhere near this horrible (for all the right reasons) place.

If you need a sugar boost or your sweet tooth is acting up, go to Cookies by George.
These guys have the best cookies in the world! Well, at least in Edmonton. Their cookies are big and fresh all the time. Somehow they have mastered the art of the cookie, making it perfectly crunchy on the outside and concealing all the warm, chewy goodness on the inside. Each cookie is a work of art as far as I’m concerned!
Yes, you will pay more for one of these delicious and delectable hybrid cookies, but it is worth every penny. YUM!
I’ve stopped for a coffee and cookie here so many times and I’m never disappointed. My only quarrel with this location is waiting in line. I often get impatient and frustrated in lines. However, every time I get my cookie, it’s worth it!

I hate Cookies by George! By that, I mean I cannot walk by it without eying down one of their many delicious cookies and using all of my willpower to pry myself away. Their cookies sizes are nothing short of large, they have plenty of chunks inside, and their taste is guaranteed to cheer you up even if you’re having a horrible day. Everything here is baked fresh and their cookies are always moist and tender.
I personally love the Macadamia Nut Chocolate Chunk– white chocolate chunks with bombardments of macadamia nuts line this cookie. You won’t find any better cookies in town. The fact that it’s on campus right where I study make this an even more irresistible treat. I don’t know how residents of Hub can sleep at night knowing this is around the corner.

The cookies are soft and they melt in your mouth. I’d like to meet George and shake his hand because he has done well. The chocolate chips in the cookies are HUGE, it’s like 3 chocolate chips fused into 1. I guess that’s why it is called chocolate chunks.
I haven’t had the coffee here but I have heard good things about it. I have had the hot chocolate with whip cream and let me tell you it is amazing. It is obviously really sweet so if you can’t handle that don’t try it, but if you have a sweet tooth you will die.

Cookies by George have the best cookies you can purchase commercially, as far as I am concerned. This location serves a lot of students needing a sugar and caffeine fix, so no doubt the lines are usually long. The cookies are chewy on the inside, crispy on the outside, and always fresh. The pieces of chocolate are large chunks that are about five time as large as standard chocolate chips. The cookies are a bit on the expensive side, but really worth it. The coffee here is pretty good as well, certainly on par with any of the major chains.

My freshman fifteen can be traced all the way to one source of evil known as Cookies by George, and particularly this one at HUB mall. It doesn’t matter if you’re running late for class. Heck, it doesn’t matter if you have an exam! The intoxicating smell of George’s cookies will devilishly lure you towards them, and before you know it, BOOM! freshman fifteen, baby!
Their cookies are — dare I say it – even better than Tim Horton’s (I’m sorry, Timmie’s!). They’re gooey and soft, with each warm bite melting in your mouth. I can’t even say which is my favourite, they’re all sinfully delicious. If you’re not allergic to nuts, give the macadamia nut chocolate chunk a try. And then tell me if store-​bought cookies still taste the same.
George also whips up a mean latte to go with your cookie (s). Bring your own coffee mug and receive a discount too at this location.
I don’t know who George is, but he sure knows cookies! And don’t say I didn’t warn you!
