Poker Chips and Chocolate Chips: Finding Cookies On The Strip

Peanut Butter, Sugar, Snickerdoodle, Oatmeal Raisin, you really can’t go wrong. But the best of the best, the favorite amongst the favorites, the Vegas bakery “go-to,” is the adored Chocolate Chip Cookie. While visitors likely don’t think of Vegas as a “cookie destination” there is no shortage of scrumptious cookie factories along the Las Vegas Strip.

Bellagio Patisserie at Bellagio Hotel & Casino

3600 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
702-693- 8865

Hours: Monday to Thursday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Friday to Sunday 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.

To be honest, even though they’re delicious, you’re probably not visiting this one for the cookies. You’re heading this was to snap a picture or two of the ‘gram worthy chocolate fountain.

Fun Fact: Reminiscent of Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory, over 2,000 pounds of melted white, dark and milk chocolate cascade down the chocolate fountain from 27-feet up.

The patisserie itself is known for edible art and the desserts showcased feel more like sculptures than food. But don’t get distracted, you’ve come for the cookies. Enjoy classic French Macarons in various colors and as Instagram-worthy as the fountain itself.
