Great American Cookies

We used to come here all the time especially since the one in the mall is no longer there. We had been going since the old owners were there. However, since ownership has changed so have the cookies. Unfortunately, the last few times we have gone, the cookies have been stale and hard. We went today and our double doozies were hard as rocks, like barely could be eaten. It's like they had been sitting there and were old. It's tasted similar to this before, but these were the worst. We miss the way the cookies used to taste, but maybe we just haven't gotten lucky the last few times we have gone. Will always give it another try though.

Got a cookie cake for son’s birthday, had it done in 30 minutes and it was fresh!

I had never been in a Great American Cookies store. While waiting for Dillard's Department store to open at Pier Park, two of us decided a pretzel sounded good. Looking at the directory, Great American Cookies was close, it offered pretzels, we we made the short walk to the store. It was a delightful experience. The pretzels came with a variety of options. Despite the various options, we opted for a regular cup of the plain pretzel bites. These are small, big bite sized pretzels. They are different than the regular pretzels commonly seen in grocery stores and they taste better. They were very fresh. They were soft and cooked to perfection. One cup does not sound like a big order but the two of us split the cup and a coke and we were very satisfied. The pretzels were worth thinking about and returning because they were served hot and fresh and almost melted in the mouth. The staff was very friendly. Other options included a variety of cookies and cakes. The restaurant was very small but very neat, clean and attractively decorated. A small place, a limited menu with food that was perfect, and the atmosphere was enjoyable. It was worth a visit. I am looking forward to going back again!

Need a quick round cookie this morning. Hutchinson Blvd would not do it. Wouldn’t even ask details !! Thank goodness pier park has it in the oven now. It’s a good day!

Holy moly, a Double Doozie and one of their slushees is where it’s at. Great location with plenty of other things to do nearby. We ate across the way at San Marcos recently and I treated myself to a Great American Cookie for dessert. No regrets.
