Ben's Cookies
The Ben's Cookies store in South Kensington, London is only one of less than nine Ben's Cookies stores in the UK. Although the store is very small, it is very popular and it is not surprising since apart from being located right next to the South Kensington underground station and also for the quality of the cookies. The cookies are a lot more expensive than any cookie you can buy from a supermarket, but with the large selection of freshly baked delicious cookies, they are too good not to try. I was skeptical about the quality of the cookies, since they cost over £1 each if bought separately, but I tried them, and they surpassed expectations. I believe that they are far better than the famous Krispy Kreme doughnuts and am sure I am not the only one who thinks so. I tend to buy them in a box, as it is a better deal. Last time I visited the store, the offer was something like 12 cookies for £15 which does sound like a lot, but they make great gifts, and from experience have been enjoyed by everyone that eats them. Apart from cookies, Ben's Cookies also sells drinks as well. The store is very small so only has a couple of staff there, but they have been very reasonable to me, even offering discounts when a particular cookie was unavailable. The opening and closing hours are very reasonable as well.
