Zoe G.

Very cute interior and staff were so friendly and helpful. I didn't get very much cereal milk flavor from the soft serve, maybe more of a milk soft serve. I wish they had more cereals as toppings, but the topping the employee recommended to me was delicious. I can say I've tried it now, but this trip mainly gave me inspiration to make my own ice cream.

This is definitely a must try dessert spot for one main reason: cereal milk soft serve. It was kind of difficult for me to decide what I wanted to try, but the simplest decision came down to haven't I had, which was the cereal milk soft serve. The simplest suggestion I say is get the cereal milk soft serve with the corn flake crunch or cocoa cereal crunch. Or do what I did where I got both toppings, cookies & cream soft serve on the bottom and cereal milk on top. The best way I can describe it is literally through the name. It is like the end of when you're done eating your cereal and the milk is all sweet from the cereal. The compliment to it is the crunchy topping that I believe may even have a little salt to make it taste even better. The area is spacious as there is plenty of room to enjoy your dessert. This place even has more room than most restaurants in New York. Simple dessert shop with a variety of desserts but you must try the cereal milk soft serve at least!

Such a lovely package came from a dear friend from Milk Bar! What a beautifully packaged gift box filled with sweet goodies! From cookies to cake balls to the Milk Bar Pie-every treat was more delicious than the next! Since I got this package delivered-I cannot review the ambiance and service but the car in the package has me to believe it's wonderful! Thank you for such a lovely birthday surprise!

I finally did the "Greatest Hits" run at Milk Bar, which includes the Birthday Cake slice, the Milk Bar Pie slice, a 3-pack of B'day Truffles, and a Compost Cookie. (Pro tip: don't try to be a hero and eat this all in one sitting unless you want a literal heart palpitation). I've been chipping away at it over the last two days, and it's the gift that keeps on giving. The Birthday Cake and Truffles are basically nostalgia in edible form, like the best possible version of Funfetti, but denser and way more addictive. The Milk Bar Pie is the richest thing I've ever tasted: it's salty, buttery, and gooey, so a few bites at a time is plenty. The Compost Cookie was the real MVP for balancing things out, though. The bits of potato chips and pretzels give you that salty hit you desperately need after all the cake. Overall, it's definitely a splurge, but everything keeps so well in the fridge that it's worth the haul. It's super sweet, so definitely have some water or black coffee on standby, but if you have a sweet tooth, this is basically the promised land.

It is over-rated. The original pie was delicious everything else was just soooo sweet. I am one and done on this one.

It was an easy experience to order a full cake for pickup which I appreciate -- it's also a very large cake for what you get, which was good for our large group. I can't speak to the ambience as we got the cake to-go, but it was a smooth pickup process and service was good We've had their cake before (I think a red velvet cheesecake?) and it was amazing, but their seasonal strawberry shortcake did not hit as hard unfortunately. It was a bit too sweet for me, and I wish there was more vibrancy in the jam. not bad but could have been better.

We got the cereal soft serve. The dessert hit the spot and you can see why this brand has become an nyc staple. Inside it's a little dirty, but we were there a little late into the night, so that could be why. I would recommend you swing by here or any of their locations to feed your sweet tooth

My husband ordered cookies from here and had them delivered and then we went while in NYC. Unfortunately, the cookies are very average and not even worth the order or stop in. They taste like basic soft grocery store cookies. The service in store was friendly and the space was cute and clean, but I have no reason to order cookies or visit again.

Always order direct ship online and happy to finally go in person. So much more delicious FRESH! The milk bar pie is dreamy and light. We snagged a warm compost cookie fresh from the oven! Gooey marshmallow brownie special was decadent.

I came here for dessert one evening and thought that it was a cool spot! The interior of the space is bright, spacious, and clean. The service was quick. I got their cereal milk soft serve with cereal toppings and it was good! It tastes exactly like how milk tastes after you eat cereal, and was definitely an interesting flavor to try. My friend said that it's a flavor that has to grow on you, and I can definitely see that. At first I was unsure, but as I ate it more, I started to enjoy it more. I also loved how they put the cereal toppings at the top of the soft serve as well as at the bottom!

I love this Milk location. This is their NY flagship location so it's alive, festive, & bigger than the other ones I've been to. Decent sized dining area, tons of seating available. They have a huge pastry case of their offerings. Soft serve / ice cream & coffee also available. They have all the products here since it is also where they ship online orders from. My favorites: Milkbar pie (crack pie for those that know it), the compost cookies, corn cookies, & the birthday cake. The birthday cake truffles are also a good option. Items range from $7-15. Tons of cookie bundles / tins / packaging options. Overall, pretty pricey for what you get. Flavors are good but nothing over the top. The crack pies are not as flavorful as I remembered and the slices definitely got smaller. But I still recommend trying this place.

Nisa J.

Overall, I had a delightful experience at Milk Bar. The individual helping me with my order was extremely bubbly and willing to offer recommendations as I mulled some options. Reason for a docked star is she almost forgot an item and also made me the wrong shake, but I did not complain because i knew it would still be enjoyable. Just be prepared to spend $$$ - this place is not cheap (which at least I knew going in!)

Cereal milk layer build: graham cracker, sprinkles, caramel, the soft serve, idk maybe few other things
Jason C.

$19 for ice cream, okay here we go: The good: Creative take on soft serve Toppings work well together The bad: The soft serve tastes too much like milk. I felt like I paid $19 for a cup of milk with sugar mixed in. They only offer 4 different mix ins for the layers, could easily offer 10 It was $19 Overall: The flavors work well together sort of. I want to give it a 3, but this $19 price is just too underwhelming. It's a 2. I'd say if you go to milk, try their cakes instead.

The pie really is good. I've only tried the milk bar pie, but yes it was yummy. I'll probably just get it again next time I go back.

I feel like I bought a truly ridiculous amount of petit gateaus here to try out and share with…read morefriends and we wound up enjoying most of them, some enough to buy twice. Went to the Flatiron store both times and didn't have to wait long to order. The staff were great and packed all of the little cakes nicely so that they survived the trek back to our condo. Mango--all around favorite, wound up buying like 4 of these cause half my friends preferred it and I liked it a surprising amount Blueberry--very mild, no tartness, not too sweet with good blueberry flavor Orange--fresh and orangey in the middle, loved this one Pear--reminds me of cinnamon apples (I guess this was cinnamon pears), which isn't my favorite flavor but others enjoyed Banana--made me sad cause I LOVE banana flavored stuff and this just... wasn't? It had old tasting banana paste in the middle assuming because it's real banana and not artificial, is tiny, and didn't taste good Yuzu--nice yuzu flavor and disappeared fast Cloud--forgot the actual name and apparently didn't take a picture, it had chocolate/hazelnut mousse with some sort of caramel and something crunchy, also delicious All of the petit gateaus were on the mild side which is a big plus for me. Appearance was top notch and the balance of cream to filling on point. I'd like to try some of the other pastries next time for sure.

Bread treats were decent not too different from other bakeries. The fruit and mushroom cakes were…read moredelicious, I enjoyed a lot more than I expected. Not too sweet and a good balance. Not too sure if I would say it's a must stop at but it's a great choice if you've never had these type of desserts before. The inside doesn't have many tables and it was pretty busy when I went, so I wouldn't expect to get a seat every time you come here.

Something with eggs, and meat, and a hot beverage as winter is fast approaching. Anything else would do fine, but the first two were an absolute must. Daily Provisions fulfilled those obligations. Though pricey, and probably why I will not return, they make one tasty breakfast sandwich. It might even outdo Panera! If only I could see how it is made rather than just wrapped and packaged for me, with me assuming they just took a pre-packaged sandwich and heated it up. I really hope they do not do that. The taste of it tells me they do not, but I have to surmise. I also got a hot chocolate, which is super rich. It is not super hot, but if you are not careful you could have an accident on the sidewalk because of the milk they use. Drink it slow and steady. Or pace yourself between sips. Do not let the body recognize this is full of the things that make bowel movements happen. Thankfully, I held my ground. They also sell crullers. I love a good cruller. Choux pastry donuts full of rich flavor, without all the density of an actual donut. This one may be too rich. It is also quite expensive. Nearby Donut Pub does a better job with them. I had to be careful eating this. Being careful and knowing how much it cost to get a breakfast here are what keep it a three star review. However, their offerings will keep you out of the cold and give you strengths on days you need to be picked up.

I will say that I didn't think I would like this cookie at all since usually I like thinner crunchier cookies. But holy cow!!

The Walnut Chocolate Chip Cookie was not too sweet as the walnuts were the perfect balance! I think this is for people who are not too big on chocolate chips in their cookie. The Coconut Caramel cookie reminded me of a Samoa! You can taste all the coconut in the cookie and it was delicious! The Sticky Bun was so soft as well! 10/10!
