Ben’s Cookies is a chain, but you might not realize that if you stumbled upon this tiny little store. They do one thing well and that cookies! If you are like me and prefer slightly crispy and flavorful cookies then this is the perfect place for you. They also have very cheerful service and prices are reasonable. It’s only for take away so don’t plan on eating your cookies there!
Visitors to Edinburgh should add a trip (at least one!) to Ben's Cookies to their top five must do/see list. Seriously. These cookies are amazing. I bought the dark chocolate chunk to sample and went back a day later to try a couple more. One of the staff offered me a box of seven that were a day old and discounted. My taste buds and stomach were thrilled. Loved the milk chocolate chunk, double chocolate chunk, orange and milk chocolate and found the matcha and white chocolate chunk and the praline and milk chocolate better than I expected. Found the white chocolate chunk tasted like, what Americans would call, a sugar cookie. Still plan to try the peanut and milk chocolate and the triple chocolate chunk.
May 10... several return visits later I wanted to note that the triple chocolate chunk is good and the peanut and milk chocolate is my favorite. Also just tried a scoop of their chocolate ice cream, and it is damned good.
Great service and some of the best cookies i have ever had. I recommend their Triple chocolate and praline cookies!!
Place also smells amazing
