Golden Gate Fortune Cookies Co

"Follow your nose down Ross Alley to this tiny but fragrant cookie factory." Full review

"Dimly-lit business in the oldest alley in SF. A bag of 40 cookies is a bargain at $3, or buy the "unfortunate" flat disks."

"A whiff of vanilla leads you to this cramped shotgun space. Workers deftly pull warm, golden discs off the spinning machines, then flip and fold them into fortune cookies." Full review

"This San Francisco staple is one of the few remaining places in the country where fortune cookies are made by hand." Full review

"Watch the golden fortune cookie wafers coming off the machine, pancake like, before being bent into their traditional shape." Full review

"The smell of the cookies being freshly made will draw you in. You'll get a free sample and be able to buy then in various-sized packages and flavors. " Full review

"The oldest handmade fortune cookie maker in the Bay Area. To keep the business evolving, third-generation owner Alicia Wong added intricately decorated cookies to the mix" Full review

"Workers sit at a conveyor belt, folding messages into thousands of fortune cookies—20,000 a day—as tourists line up to watch the cookies being made...they can create custom cookies." Full review

"The fortune cookies at the factory far surpass what you usually get at Chinese restaurants: they’re extra crispy and have a nice vanilla scent." Full review

"In addition to offering factory tours, where visitors can see the lucky treats being made on cast-iron griddles, the shop can also make cookies with personalized fortunes right on the spot."
