Dino's Cookies — Restaurant in Lakeland

We saw this booth at the Lakeland market today. Overall, we bought two cookies from the older man, but my problem is the way we were greeted by the younger guy. We were excited to try a new market and support small local businesses just to be greeted with "well you look hungry." Because I am plus size, I must be hungry? I'm sure I looked just as anyone else walking past their booth, but since I am plus size, I was judged from that first moment. Think about what you say before you open your mouth. He had no idea of my situation and was probably equally as ignorant as to how those words would tare me down, but he could have also just greeted me with "would you like a cookie" like he did the girls before us in line. Usually people cook or bake because their creations bring joy to others. Not here. While the cookies looked great, I wouldn't know if they're good or not because I was so disgusted by being judged in the first 5 minutes of the event that I threw them away. Very...

Wednesday night, 7 friends and family members and I went to Dino's Cookies & Eatery for dinner before a nearby movie , and we found it to be GREAT !

In fact, we all enjoyed our dinner so much, we even returned to Dino's after the movie for some of their delicious desserts - Gelato, Ice Cream, and delicious huge Cookies - all home-made ! Looking forward to going back to Dino's again next week for...

I ordered three kinds of cookies and didn't like any of them. I agree with other reviews that the cookies seemed undercooked and almost raw in the center which made me uncomfortable, but the taste was my main problem. The chocolate chip cookie had a difficult to describe, somewhat artificial flavor that kind of reminded me of pre-packaged soft cookie brands like Grandma's Cookies. The sugar cookie icing had a terrible flavor reminiscent of cherry cough syrup flavoring. The white chocolate macadamia cookie was the best of the 3, but i didn't care for it either. Finally, the price was outrageous at $6 per cookie (i used for Door Dash, so maybe the in store prices are more reasonable.) I don't recommend these cookies and threw all 3 of mine in the trash.
