As far as cookies go, this place takes the cake. Tried three: peanut butter, white chocolate macadamia, chocolate chip almond. It came to almost $19...which gave me pause because it's just four cookies. But everyone I shared them with immediately said these were the best cookies they'd ever eaten, so I guess they were worth it.
They're soft, chunky, even days later if you wrap them up. I can imagine they'd be even better fresh out the oven or warmed up. -

I could only give Le Gourmand 3 stars because I only grabbed a coffee here during a quick meeting. I've heard a lot about the Le Gourmand cookies, but didn't opt to grab one. But I will say based on the show case they looked amazing. A hefty palm sized cookie backed with chocolate chips and walnuts. It really reminded me of the cookies I had in NYC at Levain cookies. Just thick and gooey!
Walking in, the place has a very eclectic hipstery vibe mixed with an old school Italian bakery. The walls were stacked from floor to ceiling with dark wooden shelves. Boxes of oat, soy and almond milk are on the shelves, packages got a drip coffee. Of coffee and other decor. The few tables for seating were close together and all full. They're super small but because of the area it looks like people come here for meetings.
I grabbed a drip coffee which I was excited for since drip is usually stronger than conventional brewed coffee. I believe a small was $2, but honestly it was kind of weak. They have 3 different roasts so I'm not sure which one I got so maybe ask for the dark roast? Lactose free milk, agave and simple syrup are notable mentions for add ins.
Overall, this place is v accessible since it's right on Spadina. Grab a cookie then tell me about it. -

Delicious. What else can I say?
In the summer they have a soft serve with half a cookie and cookie crumble. It's a whopping $7.
Did I buy it? Yes.
Did I like it? Absolutely!
The cookie was warm, the soft serve was cold. Ah, best combo.
The soft serve isn't like McDonald's, it feels so bougie. So European. Ugh, now I want to get some this afternoon. -

My coworkers introduced me to this place and the cookies from here have officially become our special occasional bet prize whenever we get over sports.
Chocolate walnut and regular chocolate chip here are delicious. I can never finish an entire cookie and usually just split it with my team. Super moist, chocolatey and indulgent. Always wish I have a huge glass of milk to balance out the sweetness.
They're pretty serious about their cookies here. (Awards to show for too!)
