    Cookies, cookies, cookies!
    Jay S.

    Good cookie spot, but the only cookie they really stood out was the TriplePB (3x peanut butter), the the kitchen sink was just too many different flavors. The service was very friendly and fast, and the ambiance was very cool, especially in the party area. I'm calling it the party area because it seems to be a spot where they teach classes or have some kind of cookie parties? Seems like it would be a great thing for teens or a fun friends group birthday type activity.

    This place is over hyped, I wish I would have read the reviews before spending $60 on awful stuff! The girl at the register was not friendly and really just kind of angry! We got 6 cookies (assorted flavors) and a birthday milkshake. The cookies were either stale or overcooked. They had this awful saltiness to them. The milkshake was just as bad! Awful place, rude staff! Sorry, not sorry!!!

    The good: delicious Milk bar pie, buttery, chewy, oat crust. Rich, dense cookies with lots of flavor. The pint ice cream they have is decadent. Very thick swirls of caramel. The BAD: $50 pie. One single thin slice is $7. Each truffle is like $4 with tax. It's really overpriced. Service was not amazing either. We asked the guy what he recommended, what was good and he said said. " no, it doesn't work like that." Um what? So yeah, kind of weird. I think this is a nice occasional treat but no pie is worth $50.

    Chocolate Wintermint Soft Serve & Cereal Milk Soft Serve with Cornflake Crunch

    I've been coming to Milk Bar for a few years now! The and quality of desserts here are amazing, and I love introducing my friends here when they're new to LA or haven't explored much of the dessert scene here. The baked goods are definitely on the sweeter side, so if you're sensitive to sweetness I'd be cautious. However, I personally love heavy sweets so this is def the spot to be! My usual order is their cereal milk + cornflake crunch soft serve ice cream, it's the perfect balance of sweet and salty that scratches my brain just right lol. Some other items I really enjoy is the Milk Bar Pie (SUPER sweet and rich, fyi) and the Kitchen Sink Cookie (amazing if you love texture variety). My boyfriend ordered the seasonal feature Wintermint soft serve, and it was delicious. Definitely a must visit if you're in the area, especially if you're already a fan of their truffles sold in grocery stores. Even better in person!

    The staff was very friendly and helpful, ordered a chocolate wintermint cup with corn flake crisps and it was delicious, they seat you outside or in the classroom if it's not in use( as they teach classes here) but the decorations and everything are very cute!

    I love milk bar! It's probably one of my favorite cookie shops. I have gifted various items via their website for friends over the years. I stop into the Melrose location whenever I'm in the area which I was a few days ago. I went in to try their strawberry shortcake soft serve which was good. I wouldn't say it's my favorite soft serve out there but it was a unique flavors. Of course their crack pie is always the winner. As odd as it sounds, the corn cookie was our favorite but they didn't have any, I hope it hasn't been discontinued. If you ever get a chance to try their holiday flavors like peppermint, it's a must! They have an adorable area where you can sit and relax...the room looks like it could've been part of their kitchen at one point. I don't think there's any seating outdoors. Milk is located in the same small shopping plaza as Winchells. There's about 10 parking spots onsite and street parking via meter or in the neighborhood but be careful and read the signs carefully.

    We celebrated my daughter's 13th birthday on melrose with some fun shopping and landed at Milk Bar with ten 13 year old girls. We ordered the classic cake and when we arrived, we were greeted by Mahalia at the register and Matthew in the kitchen. They extended such generosity and hospitality to us by allowing us to sit inside and get the girls out of the heat. It was the highlight of my daughter's day. Thank you for employing such warm hearted staff, it enhanced our experience exponentially. Mahalia and Matthew, we are indebted to your kindness.

    I hate this place, I hate their desserts, I hate what the business represents, and I hate that they are successful. When I tell you that the ice cream here tastes like a mistake I fully mean it. The claim to fame "cereal milk ice cream" legitimately tastes like spoiled wheat germ, it is shockingly unappetizing and and equally shocking is the fact that it's more than $3.99. This garbage should be free, I should be paid to get rid of it. I asked a very friendly staff member, "Is this what it's supposed to taste like?" she took a sample out of the machine and tried it herself. "yes." I stared in disbelief and she added on, "I know." The cookies are abhorrent, they're sweeter than walmart lofthouse pucks and 10X the price and actually have less depth. Sugar sugar sugar sugar sugar. That's it, it's all sugar. Save yourself the money and buy straight corn syrup and drink it, you'll enjoy that about as much as the birthday cake cookie from this soulless void of a dessert shop. The mere concept that they also host baking classes in here is what I would call culinary terrorism. An affront to desserts as an artform as much as the desserts are an affront to taste as a sense. If you care at all about food, you should be angry that this place is in business. Would rate negative stars if possible.

    We tried the soft serve, the build-a-pint and the cookies as well. Service was great, and the ice cream was fantastic. They only had two flavors of ice cream and I went for the cereal milk ice cream one and completely loved it. I also paired it with a chocolate chip cookie and it went well. The flavor reminded me a bit of vanilla with a hint of salt caramel ice cream for some reason. Would definitely be back if I'm ever in the area again.

    Milk should be called "spoiled milk " honestly great atmosphere but we're not there for the setting. I had all these desserts that looked amazing but they had no flavor. Felt like I was eating a cardboard box. Nothing made me feel like the day I signed my divorce papers. Honestly just skip not worth the hype

    Oh my gosh! I can't believe I've never had the ice cream here. I ordered one with cornflakes and it was so sweet and salty with the cereal milk ice cream. I am definitely coming back. The ice cream is $7 and an extra $1.80 with the cornflakes. The people there smile when they serve you and the place is clean and inviting to sit and eat your desserts. They had samples of the milk bar pie and my hubby got a slice of that. My daughter had the cereal milk ice cream and couldn't finish so she took that home. There are places to park in the lot but this place gets crowded so "good luck".

    Love Milk Bar Pie Slice

    Always a staple. The ice cream is to die for. The bday truffles are a yes and I don't even like truffles. Miss the corn cookie. Sad!

    Cereal Milk Soft Serve Ice Cream $7.00 + Chocolate Cereal Crunch $1.50 = $9.31 total.
    Melissa W.

    Cute little spot off of Melrose! A friend recommended it for dessert, and as an ice cream girly, I was excited to check it out. They usually have two soft serve options -- a rotating flavor and their classic Cereal Milk. This month's special was lemon, which I was hoping to try, but unfortunately, they were out. So the choice was made for me. I went with the Cereal Milk Soft Serve for $7.00 and added the Chocolate Cereal Crunch topping for $1.50. After tax, it came out to $9.31. The soft serve itself was a bit saltier than I expected, but the Chocolate Cereal Crunch totally saved it. It added the perfect texture to break things up. I definitely recommend adding a topping. From the display, I thought the topping would just be basic cocoa krispies, but they were way better. It tasted like they mixed in some butter, cocoa, and sugar to make them extra tasty and unique to the shop. I also picked up an Oatmeal Cream Cookie and had it with coffee the next morning. It was soft and not too sweet. Overall, it's probably not a place I'd go out of my way for, but I'm glad I gave it a try. It's always fun to explore new spots!

    Ask the Community - Milk Bar

    Are items baked on-site? We are are considering driving up from Long Beach to visit for a treat, but don't want pre-packaged goods.

    All your goods are keto/low carb friendly?

    No!!! They sell cookies, truffles cake and ice cream - I don't think they sell anything low-carb or keto friendly

    Do lines form before opening?

    I don't think so.

    It's probably a long shot, but are there dairy free options?

    Yes! They had a vegan chocolate cookie 🤤. Not sure if it's always there tho 🤔

    How's parking? Is there parking available? Is it free?

    Yes, but parking is very limited. When I went it was a busy day. I suggest go early, or you'll park in the street.

    Can we walk in and just buy a birthday cake with writing or does it need to be pre-ordered?

    You can buy the cake without writing there. With writing requires ordering, but you can try asking and you might get lucky.

    Is there places to sit inside or outside?

    Yes to both seating. Both spaces are limited and on a first come basis. Plan your visit according due to overcrowding especially on the weekends.

    I was wondering, when ordering here on yelp, it says $6 for birthday truffles. Is that for multiple? Because a dozen is $25. But there's no option to buy the dozen here.

    The menu says a pack of 3 for $6 and a dozen gift box $24. Same price either way.

    Holy shiiit how did I miss this. When did they open!?

    Several weeks ago!! Def worth a try if you like sweets

    I noticed some items were prepackaged. Are they baked somewhere else or at the Melrose location? Milk Bar management, care to answer this question?

    Some of the prepackaged items are labeled as distributed from NYC. The other items such as the cakes are baked onsite.

    Do you have gluten free options?

    Yes! We have gluten free Birthday Cake and Birthday Cake Truffles, and two GF cookies - the Perfect 10 and the Best Freaking Cookie!

    How much are their cake slices?

    $9.00

    Once I found out there was going to be a Kuromi themed collab here I had sure to mark my calendar,…read moreso I've been looking forward to this! The collab started today and will last until the 31st. The store opens at 7am , but even though I got there around 8:30 and there was no line they still managed to sell out of a majority of the limited edition Kuromi themed pastries. Which was a little heart breaking, but also understandable. I ended up ordering the Kuromi Berry lemonade and some of their more popular items like the D Tia Blue (blueberry/cream cheese filled pastry) and the Japanini. Everything hit the spot as expected, but the highlight of my visit was definitely that berry lemonade! It had the perfect sweet to sour ratio and it looked very whimsical with its purple hue. I'll definitely be back to order that again and maybe I'll have better luck next time with the availability of the limited edition pastries. It wasn't as busy as it typically gets so took advantage of the opportunity and I dined in. During my visit I adored the Kuromi decor around the story. It was definitely picture worthy. They also have the cutest merch available for sale and of course I bought a sticker sheet to add to my sticker collection. The workers also wore pretty purple Kuromi hats and aprons, which is also included in their merch for sale fyi.

She took me here. The place was very clean and tidy with a lot of different types of sweet treats. I was there for one thing only. I did ask the gal working if they were made that day and she said yes. We ordered a raspberry, an orange, a coffee bean and the popular mango. This was my 2nd time trying these and our hopes were high BUT the raspberry was just awful the filling was strange and it had just raspberry jam inside,I dint eat it. The mango was okay so we shared that. The coffee bean was just awful as well so we didn't finish that either. The orange was the best of the group but overall just a disappointing experience once again because these are not cheap. I'm starting to think I might just have to give up my journey to find these although there are some places in Vegas that look promising. I don't think Reno has any bakeries that make these. They look so beautiful but the taste is a let down.

I asked, "Was this made today?" and was told yes, so I bought it. I was very disappointed when I got home and cut it in half. I understand that a handmade dessert won't look exactly like a photo, but this was far from what I had expected. I called the bakery to explain my concern. The person I spoke with did not let me finish explaining and insisted, "That could never happen." She also asked why I was saying that and told me to bring the mochi back. I had gone out of my way to visit early that morning, so being told to make another trip was frustrating. The phone conversation left me more upset than the mochi itself. This was my second visit.

"오늘 만든 거예요?" 하고 여쭤보니 그렇다고 하셔서 일단 사 왔다. 그런데 반으로 잘라보는 순간... 실망, 대실망! 아주 그냥 실망실망 대실망이었다. 가게에 전화해서 설명하려는데 내 말은 끝까지 듣지도 않으시고 "절대 그럴 일이 없다", "왜 그러냐", "가지고 오라"는 말씀만 하시더라. 아침 일찍 일부러 찾아가서 산 건데, 이걸 바꾸려고 내가 다시 거기까지 가야 하나? 모찌도 아쉬웠지만 전화 응대 때문에 더 속상했다. 이번이 두 번째 방문인데, 첫 방문 때도 대파빵인가 마늘빵인가를 샀다가 별로 좋지 않은 기억이 있었다. 이번에는 인스타 사진을 보고 기대하며 다시 가본 건데... 완전 대대대실망! 이제 인스타 사진만 보고 달려가서 사지는 말아야겠다. 아침부터 괜히 기분만 상했네~
