Mclaren's Pantry - Edmond

If I had to use one word to describe McLaren's, it would be: UNDERWHELMING. Two words, you ask? OVER PRICED. A patient of the office I work at brought me a gift card for this place yesterday, so of course I went to check it out. I couldn't find prices atany of the places I checked online, so I wasn't sure what to expect. (Not to worry for all of you planning a visit, I'veuploaded a photo. I pulled in to a packed parking lot which is usually a good sign. The dining area was pretty full, mostly ofolder ladies chatting while having lunch. There was no line, which was nice. After glancing at the menu, I knew that if I waspaying with my own money, I would have turned and walked out, but since I had a gift card, I didn't. I ordered a spinachquiche, which says it comes with a side of fruit salad, and I also ordered a cup of the Wisconsin Cheddar soup. I was told tohave a seat and they would call me up when it was ready and I'd pay then. I was surprised at how small the quiche wasconsidering it was two quarters shy of $10. (That's right. $9.50 for a Banquet Pot Pie size quiche. The soup came the size Iexpected to see. And it also came with a mint. Once I got to my table, I realized there was no fruit salad so I had to go ask ifthat was a thing or not. The girl at the front quickly realized she forgot and turned to the mini fridge behind her and handedme a tiny cup of fruit. (See photo for entire meal. My order came out to almost $14. I kind of feel ripped off to be completelyhonest. The quiche was soggy. Like it was cooked over the weekend and then popped in the microwave when I ordered it. Tastedlike dog breath. You could tell that if it were fresh, the crust would be crispy and flaky, but it was incredibly wet. Icouldn't finish it. The soup tasted like an off brand canned soup you'd get at Walmart and I wouldn't be surprised if that'swhat it was. Sadly, the fruit is the only thing that tasted good and unfortunately that was the smallest portioned thi

When you walk into McLaren's it gives you a southern home vibe. All of the baked goods here are made from scratch, and let me tell you it is divine. Their chocolate chip cookies are to die for. I absolutely love the ladies that work here too. Everyone isalways nice, and they always get your food to you pretty quickly. They have good sandwiches, but I mainly go here for thedesserts.

The food and service were fantastic! They offer an excellent selection of sandwiches, salads, daily soups, and delicious desserts. This restaurant has a cozy, family-owned atmosphere with lovely vibes and wonderful aromas.

I have been dining here for over 35 years, and it remains just as fantastic as ever! The sandwiches are delicious, and the desserts? Oh. My. Goodness!!!

McLaren's is a beloved fixture in Edmond, originally founded by two Scottish sisters who were passionate about both food and people. Twenty years later, the Turkey Avocado Croissant remains just as delicious as ever. Their cookies are consistently popular, and the dessert bars are always satisfying. I highly recommend trying their no-bake cookies, snickerdoodles, and Scottish shortbread. If you enjoy peanuts, be sure to try the Highland bar, which is my personal favorite! Expect to spend about $10-$15 per person for food, drinks, and dessert. Most cookies cost around $1.00, while the bars typically range around $2.50.
