MAYA’S COOKIES ARE AMAZING!! I cannot stress this enough, these cookies are possibly the best I’ve ever had. The cookies were great! They even lasted my family a few days! As someone with nut allergies I was happy to see that I was able to have some of these cookies because many mainstream cookie stores use almond flour or have cross contamination. If you have nut allergies, are vegan, or even just want to try a great cookie, I recommend this place!!

Clean restaurant, kind employees, and heavenly cookies. When I saw my total...my frugal brain about exploded. THEN, I tasted my cookies. WHOA. Worth every penny. I can't believe they make cookies that taste just like my Nana used to make. I will ABSOLUTELY be back and definitely recommend.

Vegan Series, Part 3
So what do you do if you have a sweet tooth and your search for Vegan gourmet cookies has left you with an empty cavity deep inside your heart? Well if it’s 2015 and you’re Maya Madsen, you trail blaze a path to develop and refine your own recipes, of course!
The cookies we sampled were crispy on the outside, chewy and soft on the inside, and packed with flavor! You’ve had that before you say? Well was the cookie you’re thinking of produced with plant-based ingredients? If not, then we’re talking apples and oranges here (or is that celery and radishes? I’m new to the Vegan experience, so you’ll have to forgive my lack of knowledge regarding the nomenclature. I’m clearly not Vegan fluent yet.). Whatever your views on this subject, you gotta give it up for Maya’s commitment to use “no eggs, no dairy, and no animal products…ever!”
I hope that Maya would view this as a compliment, but her cookies are so good that had I not already known they were Vegan I would have had no reason to guess that. 🤤
And that’s…Henry’s Take.

Maya's Cookies in San Marcos is a nice find in the vibrant new area. As someone who enjoys exploring new shops and restaurants, stumbling upon Maya's Cookies was a nice surprise. My first visit left me impressed with the overall experience.
Customer service played a significant role in enhancing my visit. The server was not only friendly but also highly knowledgeable about the cookies and the shop itself. She patiently answered all my questions, providing an abundance of insightful information that added to the enjoyment of the experience.
Now, let's talk about the star of the show – the cookies. As someone who was initially unsure about what to expect from vegan cookies, Maya's Cookies exceeded my expectations. I sampled the S'mores and Wheat-free Coconut Chocolate Chip, and both were a treat for the taste buds.
The S'mores cookie was soft and indulgent, with a generous dollop of marshmallow nestled in the center. While it boasted plenty of chocolate chips, I couldn't help but notice a slight absence of the distinct graham cracker flavor that typically accompanies S'mores. Nevertheless, it was a delightful treat.
The Wheat-free Coconut Chocolate Chip cookie, on the other hand, was an absolute delight. It was impressively large and offered a perfect balance of sweetness, coconut flakes, and rich chocolate chips. The fact that it was wheat-free added to its appeal, making it an inclusive option for those with dietary restrictions.
One aspect that particularly caught my attention was the Happy Hour offer on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 4-5 pm. This intriguing promotion piqued my curiosity, and I couldn't resist the temptation to return and experience it firsthand. I'm eager to discover how many customers flock to Maya's Cookies during that single hour of discounted bliss.
In conclusion, Maya's Cookies is a must-visit destination for cookie enthusiasts in San Marcos. With exceptional customer service, delicious vegan treats, and enticing promotions like Happy Hou

Accessibility: parking is very far. You can park in front of the store in parallel spots, but most likely you won't get one, so you will have to park in the parking garage and cross the street to get here. The doors to enter are pull doors, usually propped open, and the store is all one level. There is one wheelchair accessible table inside, no others, then there are a few tables in the grassy area outside the store. No restroom here.
Experience: coming inside, I was excited they weren't busy on a Friday afternoon! The store is cute with a pink style on almost everything. There was a woman working behind the counter that greeted me and was very helpful! I tried the Smores cookie (she warmed it up for me), and it was delicious! I cannot believe it's vegan! So many places can't get the taste of vegan sweets down, but this place has got it! I highly recommend. I'm so excited to try the Snickerdoodle next.
Note: this is a cashless store, so you cannot pay with cash, and they do not have any cash to give.

We were able to attend an event this past Tuesday hosted by Maya, Mulk, and Yelp. Three words... crazy good cookies!!!!! "Share the Love" is Maya's motto and let me say you feel the love from the moment you walk through the doors and into the storefront up through every delicious morsel of cookie. The store itself is bright and cheerful and just looks happy. The staff is amazing, they were super helpful and very friendly. Smiles are great, they are contagious, it is hard not to smile when other are smiling. We were lucky enough to meet Maya, what a warm, friendly, overall welcoming awesome person she is. You can tell that Maya and her staff care about their customers just as much as they care about their amazing cookies.
On to the cookies. WOW, simply put WOW! Thank you to Maya and her team we got to sample the Obama, the Lemon Chiffon, and the Chocolate Chip S'Mores cookies. Shout out to one of our favorite local vendors as well from the Mulk Co for pairing the awesome Mulk products with the cookies (the pairings complimented each cookie perfectly). Each cookie was uniquely different but equally as tasty. It is hard to choose a favorite. The lemon was light and refreshing and perfect for Spring and Summer and the Obama had a hint of chocolate mint which was reminiscent of the holidays (and I loved this cookie!).
I bought a variety dozen to try at home and every cookie was amazing. The Drunken Grandma was packed with flavor and had the perfect amount of rum soaked raisin's and the Brown Sugar Butterscotch was the perfect sweet, not too overpowering (just enough to curb my sweet tooth), and the Tennessee Whiskey Chocolate Chip left me speechless.
I take my sweets very seriously, it is literally my favorite food groups. Maya makes amazing and unique cookies and she does so with good ingredients. I am not a Vegan but you do not need to be to eat these cookies. Whether you are a fan of chocolate, butterscotch, lemon, or even rum raisin Maya's has a great variety with

COOKIES ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD!
I've never been to this location but we ordered the Cake Collection Cookie Box to be sent to our house. Very fast shipping, seemed liked it was overnight to arrive in the PNW. We followed the instructions and placed the cookies in the freezer immediately and then warmed them up individually to eat.
Our favorite was the carrot cake cookie. Yummy icing and chunks of carrots and walnuts. We also really loved the Texas sheet cake cookie especially the thick chocolate frosting. The blueberry lemon was also delicious. These were definitely fancy cookies and felt well worth the price.
We will definitely order the Cake Collection again! YUM!!!
