| - Darn good cookies, tea, and people!
The Coyote Oaties folks had samples at the Food Truck Festival and my wife, girls, and I wandered into their nearby store for a drink. All the drinks we could find at the fest was just short of pure sugar water!
The store is a cool throwback: shabby-chic décor with lots of knickknacks, sit down spots, and ordering in the back of the long, narrow space. We ordered two iced teas and three cookies. Talking with the store person (owner?) amidst the business, she shared how they had been cooking since 4 AM for the event and needed to call someone to help man the samples station outside. When she found that they were out of the cherry oatmeal cookies, she leaned back and asked her mom about when they would be ready, to which "2:40 seconds" was the immediately reply.
On the food, they serve large cookie "wads" and are delicious! Our little girls loved them; soft, sweet, buttery, and large. The teas are also hefty and good for the money. No weak serving sizes with Mom in back!
Seriously, these folks have something great going. I'll look forward to visiting again the next time I'm near Glendale City Hall.
