All of the ones I know of still exist, although the external signage was changed to "McDonalds Cafe"

That is because you are pret-entious

hahahahahaha.

sorry.

The mugs you posted on the previous page do look rather nice actually, was afraid they were going down the cup and saucer route. Is it just me that hates those glass cups that Costa give you for a medium latte?

You get a cup and saucer for a flat white I believe.

I think you'll find the correct way of clapping on this forum is in the following way:

Millie's Cookies have also changed their logo from...



to...

I like that new Millie's Cookies logo. The chunky white outline on the 'cookies' component is a little amateurish - creating a strange illusion of poorly kerned characters, and with some very unsatisfactory rendering around the S - but I think as a whole it comes together reasonably well.

The website is better in concept than execution, but I get a sense that they've only half-committed to working with the idea of making the brand seem a bit more 'homely' - as if these were actually cooked by 'Millie'. The logo tells me that that was part of their thought process, as do some of the components of the website design, but as it stands it seems to be stuck in an uncomfortable limbo between the boutique 'baked by Millie' retro style, and the 'we want to be hip and cool'.

It would have been nice to see an identity that more convincingly sticks with one strong branding concept. The mix of retro style, modern font (as used on the website for shout-outs), and decidedly contemporary 'down to earth' copy ("tasty stuff"/"worky stuff"; "assisting the head honcho" etc) makes it all a bit too schizophrenic for my tastes. Still, even with these failings, it's better than the identity system it replaces.
