Cookies
Carolina S.

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!!!

Cereal milk ice cream soft serve

I was so exited to try this place... I'm sorry but it's just horrid... the ice cream is a weird thick texture and it tastes like salted butter and butt paste. I have a weird Desitin taste/scent in my mouth. We couldn't take more than a couple bites.

Chocolate Wintermint Soft Serve & Cereal Milk Soft Serve with Cornflake Crunch
Lyndsay J.

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 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.

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.

Winter mint ice cream

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!

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".

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

Love Milk Bar Pie Slice
Alyssa B.

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!

Stopped in to settle the sweet tooth and was amazed by all the yummy goodness. Noticed immediately how clean and bright the place is. Cristina was awesome. She provided samples of ice cream and suggestions on food items. I ordered the strawberry shortcake shake and the confetti cookie. Such a delicious combo. The order was quick and easy.

Great service! Lots of options on the menu and so Yummmy!! Has plenty of seats inside and outside.!

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

I keep…read morepopping in to pick up a few things each week and am enjoying working my way through their plethora of options. The chocolate chip cookie with rice krispies "Summer Camp Chip" ($4.25) has delicious flavor and if you enjoy soft & chewy with a slight crisp, they hit all textural marks for excellence. This has become our absolute favorite snack to get here and I gots to have it every time I'm in. The chocolate pop tart is solid. We prefer the taste of this to the brownie cookie...we aren't big on that one. I had such high hopes because I love brownies and obvi love cookies, but alas, personal taste preference. The chocolate cake pudding ($4.25) is a rich and decadent treat that can be eaten right out of the wrapper it comes in! I was surprised I loved this chocolate cake soaked in chocolate custard with a few marshmallows and caramel on top. The Peanut Butter El Rollo is a tiny but cute little guy at $5.50. They make their own peanut buttercream for the inside filling and the chocolate is just wonderful. I like their bars One of my favorite things at Cake Monkey is the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cakewich. This mini cakes are just $5.75 and individually wrapped so make for great little gifts to bring to a housewarming or event. Plus it's gluten-free and vegan so all our friends can enjoy it! Cakewiches for the win at Cake Monkey Bakery! I've only tried the Matcha Latte in the drink department here and was satisfied with it. I'd like to try some of their fizzy drinks but they were out of tonic water this morning. Next time! And there will definitely be another time with Cake Monkey Bakery! They just have SO MANY options here, it's easy to find multiple baked goods you can enjoy here. I'm a fan.

It was extremely last minute and I was trying to find anything I could while also getting my sisters cake of choice. I found Cake Monkey Bakery online and they seemed very promising. I called and asked if they were able to do a cake within 2 days and to my surprise they said possibly! They asked me to send an email or to come in with an inspiration picture to see what they could do and they exceeded my expectations! First off, the place was lovely with the neon signs and beautiful pastries displayed. I was greeted very nicely by Esmerelda and Nancy and told them my situation. They told me it's no worries and that they were able do the design of the cake with the exact color in no time! They asked a few questions and showed me similar cakes they have done in the past and they looked great. They said they'll keep me updated if anything happens during the process. Coming back 2 days later was a breeze. They called me the day before to tell me I can pick it the time I requested. Again with a warm welcome, they showed me what the cake looked like and I was more than happy, it looked just like the one my sister wanted. Service, cake and timing 10/10, my sister was even more happy with it. So again, thank you so much Cake Monkey Bakery and especially to Esmerelda and Nancy! I appreciate you guys!

In LA, you should know how big of a deal parking is. If you have parking, you are among the elite. Anyway, the cupcakes, I got a standard for a pack with chocolate, strawberry, mint chocolate, and red velvet. To me, these cupcakes seemed even smaller than the standard mini size but maybe I was just already a little butt hurt that I caved on my promise to myself not to fall into the mini fad. I have to say, the highlight of these has got to be the frosting. The strawberry and the chocolate frosting were exceptionally delicious. I would probably buy the frosting by itself if I could. A real home run there and I was definitely wishing that I had A full-size cupcake to enjoy the full-size frosting. The cakes themselves were nothing to write home about, but that could also be because it is nearly impossible to get more than two bites out of a mini cupcake, so maybe I just didn't get a chance to really experience it. All in all, these were pretty solid, and I will definitely return for that frosting alone. Unfortunately, I cannot give this place five stars because again, mini cupcakes are a total rip off. For four of them I paid almost $10. Four minis equal about a regular-size cupcake which on average is $4 or less. It would be more realistic for them to sell them at two dollars apiece, or a dollar per bite.

I work in food service myself, so I understand the importance of proper sanitation: hair must be completely covered, hands must be properly washed and protected, and kitchen procedures must be followed at all times. The presence of hair in my cake shows serious negligence in your kitchen. What made this situation worse is the lack of response. I called your bakery and emailed with my receipt to inform you of the issue, but no one got back to me for a long time. When someone finally responded, I was told the issue would be handled -- yet I received no follow‑up afterward. This made me feel ignored and showed a lack of concern for your customers.
