I was excited to try Dough & Arrow, it was a surprise for me to come here and one thing I can't resist is a good chocolate chip cookie. I wouldn't say the customer service was the best just because the girl did not greet us upon coming in and seemed like she was in a rush to take our order and was a bit irritated that I was not fully sure on the flavors I was choosing for my 6 cookie options. When we arrived, we were the only customers, but people trickled in after. The store is really cute and very picture worthy. The packaging was super cute and for 6 cookies it was 19.00 not including the tip. I took the cookies home, and we heated up the cookies in the oven. Surprisingly, the best choice for me was the smookie cookie. It was very delicious, my least favorite was the Sea salt chocolate chip, it was a little too salty for me personally. It's worth checking out and tasting the different options.

Mid cookie. Wasn’t warm. Hard.

Dough & Arrow is a cute bakery that offers some really creative flavors. Their creme brûlée cookie somehow was able to capture the flavor of a creme brûlée, with its caramelized sugar top and custard in cookie form. They even have a creme brûlée cream latte which my daughter fell in love with! The cookies are on the pricey side, just under $5 each, though you get a price break if you buy them in multiples. I also tried their Ube Toasted Coconut which was good, but not as good as that creme brûlée cookie. I can see why it's their signature flavor and why the LA Times said it was worth the multi-freeway trek. Their Smookie is a cookie version of a S'more, with graham crackers, Nutella and marshmallows is also supposed to be great. I'll have to come back for that one! I'll be keeping an eye out to see what new flavors they come out with next!

These cookies were quite good. They are thinner chewier recipe. The Grown Up was my favorite personally. Great coffee flavor but not overpowering coffee taste. The fish sauce was more butterscotch caramel. The staff is nice, but Im still scratching my head at why they limit you at 4 cookies for one flavor. I honestly thought I was in an episode of Curb and wanted to start an argument. When my cousin tried to order 6 of just regular chocolate chip which is the only kind she liked, the gal told us the rule. So she decided to order just 4. Then the employee realized she was going to lose out at selling 2 cookies and said "you can get just get 6 and try 2 other flavors." Lol obviously...? I understand if they arent trying to sell out i guess but even really popular bakeries dont do this semi-absurd rule.

Super delicious latte and amazing Ube coconut cookie. Staff were great at recommending options and service was fast. Love the Cookie Monster theme decor with ample tables and chairs. Highly recommended and can't wait to go back and try other cookies and drinks!

Calling all "Cookie Connoisseurs": If you have not had a cookie from Dough & Arrow, this place needs to be on your list! Thank goodness I don't live close by because I probably would be here weekly. Y'all these gourmet cookies are soooo yummy! They have various, creative flavors. Cookies are baked to perfection- soft and moist and crunchy around the edges. You can grab a 4, 6, or 12 pack of cookies. Cookies are a bit expensive- $18 for 4 pack, $28 for 6 pack but worth it if it's your cheat day or want to treat yourself to something sweet.

Best cookies I've ever had - every event we take two dozens. The store's decor is very creative as well. I met the owner Jennifer this past Saturday and you can see why the store is top notch after meeting her, from the service to the great cookies they maintain excellence. Highly recommend grown up chocolate chip.

First time I had dough and arrow I was skeptical because raw cookie dough as a standalone dessert was slightly intimidating. But I am solidly a fan now and am so happy to see dough and arrow continue to be in business even after the nations cookie dough trend has waned in recent years. In addition to raw cookie dough, they also serve beverages and baked cookies (try the vegan Oreo). Staff is v sweet, and the founder (Andy Nguyen) has also started other successful dessert ventures like Afters. They definitely have the blueprint and recipe for success!

Still one of the best cookies I've ever had, but they are definitely smaller now. Used to be I couldn't finish it in one sitting. Time before when I was in they wouldn't give me a box even though the cookies were a gift for someone @ Xmas and their boxes are adorable! $5 a cookie ,That's now smaller, will become a sweet experience in the past.

This was my first time here and I came specifically for Jasmine Pak's Lunar New Year collab: the pineapple cake cookie. It uses the regular base but it's topped with crumbled pineapple cake and drizzled with Rooted Fare's pineapple cake butter. I'm not someone who always reaches for cookies since it's always so sweet but this was the definition of the perfect level of sweetness. It's enough to satisfy my sweet tooth but also addicting to the point where I keep reaching for more. I also had one of their signatures, ube toasted coconut, which is now one of my top favorite cookies ever, along with the first one. The texture of both cookies was irresistible since they were chewy and soft.
At 8:40pm they were already cleaning up on a Saturday when they close at 9. Mopping and chairs were already put away. A family standing outside mentioned they had already been cleaning up for some time.

We came in later in the day to try the pineapple cookie and creme brulé cookie. They were both so delicious and the gal who helped us was so helpful and friendly. Well worth dropping in!

I wish there were one closer to me, these cookies are great! As a big creme brûlée and s’mores fan, they did not disappoint, especially the creme brûlée cookie. Definitely worth a try, I haven’t been able to find another like the creme brûlée cookie.

I have spent too much money buying cookies here throughout my time living in orange county. If my dentist knew I bought a box of cookies after every visit in the same shopping plaza, he would be livid.

Cookie was just okay but the iced chai was absolutely awful, it was like a cup of water with hint of chai. Not worth going here.
