Victoria could be such a much nicer pedestrian street if they only tried to make it better. It is treated like an alleyway.

Years late, I know, I finally got around to trying Andrea's Cookies.
I don't have that sweet a tooth and they are a bit out of my way.....
But over the weekend I popped by their Bloor outpost and fetched Buttered Pancake (Maple), White Chocolate Macadamia, and Ferraro Rocher.
Then summarily found a friend who was working downtown, and split them, as I knew 3 of these cookies would be way too much for me.
A review of each, then overall comments:
Review: The consensus favourite. As with each of their cookies, uber-rich, and quite sweet, but well balanced and gives what it promises.
Review: I liked, my friend, who is less keen on nuts in cookies was less enthused but also thought it wasn't bad; for me, it was a bit out of balance with a bit too much white chocolate relative to the nuts, but still quite decent.
Review: Really quite good, the cookie itself has a maple vibe, and then icing atop has a very rich buttery vibe but also mapley.
Overall. Very good quality of Cookies, but at just over $5 a pop for a complete sugar/butter bomb.......not more than once every six months for me. I truly felt like 1/2 a cookie was a serving.

Huge fan of her cookies - been enjoying them since she first opened the store on Bloor Street (near High Park).
Also noticed she's opening in Oakville soon!
