Here is a latest look at Gideon's Bakehouse, which is currently under construction in The Landing at Disney Springs.

The interior build out is fully underway, and on the exterior, some new distressed signage gives a hint to the backstory.

Lindwurm Bookseller, Curious Books & Antiquities appears to be the name of the building's former occupants, part of the Victorian design to the new shop.

No word yet on an opening date, but we understand the project is being fast-tracked to completion.

Huge huge fan of their cookies even though I've only ever had them secondhand - meaning brought back cross-country from someone else's trip or shipped to me. I've had them less than 2 days old (heavenly) and more than 10 days old (their chocolate blooms pretty quickly but the cookies are still quite good) and keep them frozen in my freezer for months at a time and they keep super well! I dream of someday having an actual fresh one but alas the budget doesn't permit the trip for the foreseeable future. So I'm grateful for secondhand Gideon's. lol Admittedly I've quickly become fond of the new Costco cookies, but they're still not in the same league as Gideon's - though thankfully they're easier to get! :D

I'm an Original Chocolate Chip Cookie and True Red Velvet Cake gal. :) The long line looks intimidating, specially on weekends and in the afternoons/evenings, but (in my experience), it usually moves fairly quickly. That being said, as much as I like their cookies, Idk if I'd wait in line for more than 30-40mins to get one.

I thought the coffee cake one was good, but I've never been back. That line is wild.

Agreed.

Way, way too many chips/toppings. The actual cookie is almost superfluous.

AylaMar 05, 2024

You aren't alone. Every cookie I've ever seen from there looks disgusting. 🤢

I remember the cookie having no flavor to it...after you get past the toppings

Theming = A+ Cookies = C-

It was a one and done for us. Very average and not worth the price, calories, or wait. They aren't even baked at this location.

I like both the theming, and their cookies.

UNCgolfMar 04, 2024

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of their cookies either.

I like the theming of Gideon's bakery more than its cookies. I wish more places at DS did theming like this, but I'm not sure how it works with DS's theming...
