    Vanilla milky swirl ice cream w/ Cinnamon Toast Crunch + Teddy grahams + Liliko'i drizzle
    Ruby S.

    Five out of six people craved for a sweet edible treat after 12:15 p.m. Cold and inclement weather didn't stop us. This establishment was three-fourths full with patrons enjoying a milky swirl or milky cup. Available in two sizes - mini or regular. Choice of milky swirl which is soft serve mixed with your choice of cereal or milky cup similar to milkshake consistency. My CIL wanted coffee drizzle for the milky swirl; however, worker informed her they're out of that flavor. Instead, my CIL opted for chocolate drizzle. I inquired with worker which flavors were available for milky swirl. I was surprised there were only two flavors available - vanilla and strawberry. I didn't want my dessert to be too sweet so I chose vanilla. I initially wanted to order A Perfect Matcha without bananas. Unfortunately, the worker informed me they're out of matcha. Majority of the cereals offered on that day contained chocolate which my body shuns these days. I decided to come up with my own concoction of regular size Vanilla Milky Swirl ice cream with Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Teddy Grahams and Liliko'i Drizzle. I adored the creativity - five pieces of teddy grahams tucked in the Cinnamon Toast Crunch soft serve. Liliko'i flavor of the drizzle complemented this dessert. Enjoyed every spoonful. Help yourself to a free complimentary cup of water. Thank you for offering this to customers. I would love to return, see more variety in milky swirl flavors, try their matcha and/or ube milky swirl with non-chocolate toppings and drizzle.

    Such an interesting concept for a soft serve. If you like cereal and ice cream, you'll love this place. There are so many different types of cereals you can choose from to mix in. It gives it a crunchy texture also. There are also a lot of options for toppings. The people were really great and patient with us in choosing since it was our first time. It was also very spacious and clean. Fun place to try out!

    Clean open seating. Located at kamakana at the Christmas tree entrance side. The ice cream has surprisingly good concept of fresh ground cereal into the ice cream based on the toppings or preset options they have. The machine they use allows every bite to have a crunch of cereal or topping. Great choice and open late for after dinner time.

    11/5/23 a Sunday. At about 2:35pm I had gotten a gift card I'm not gonna say how I got it, and I will not say who gave it to me, but I did have a very good amount on this card so I decided to take one friend with me out to this place and it was my first time. Seeing it was my first time for me and my friend. I decided to sit for a bit and kind of look over the menu. There are a good valuable amount of choices on the menu. It was truly a hard thing to choose. Between the swirl or the cup. I did get a great sample from the workers. I asked about the Thai Tea flavor. And they gave a great sample.. I can actually compare that experience of getting a sample from this place to when I got a sample from the Cook behind the counter at Katz deli in New York City. That experience can be compared to this. The sample I got from these workers is terrific. It was over the moon. I was shocked that they gave me a size that was at least 3 ounces in a cup. That was great. I even had to ask for another spoon because I wanted my friend to taste it. That's how much of the sample they gave me. Fantastic on the hospitable service in samples. The location is prime spot I felt- easy to find and they have a corner location on the ground level of Ka Makani Ali'i. The place inside is spacious- it's clean and very comfortable. The staff was very gracious. Even if there was a generous giving of samples I think there was a feeling of slight disappointment cause they ran out of Ube flavor ice cream. They didn't have Mochi balls, and they ran out of Macadamia nuts. So for my "regular" sized cup I got Capt Crunch (pB) cereal, fruit loop cereal. Toppings: Strawberries with Condensed milk drizzle. And my friend did the shake (regular sized) with Mac nut ice cream. "Oh's cereal" and honey drizzle. Everything was great and then my friend and I noticed that everyone else after us got their ice creams made Very pretty.. the realization was that they ordered a named made entrée that had all the fixings in it. It was one of the menu specials and not with one's own choosing of toppings or drizzle like what my friend and I got. Would've been nice to know that I had of time before ordering. I would've picked one from the menu instead of create my own. Otherwise everything was great. I still have a few more dollars on the card that I got as a gift and maybe I'll use it in the future I'm in no hurry to get there again but I know where it is this time so maybe y'all follow up in a couple of months and write another review.

    The "Batch Made in Heaven", consisting of Cookie Crisp cereal, Oreo, and chocolate drizzle.
    Jessie Ross N.

    The place has lots of space for seating with friends and it's a fun, streamlined ice-cream parlor aesthetic. I always have an appreciation for puns so I do enjoy the colorful names of the creations they have. They have popular combination choices but you can also custom-create your own flavors. I'm a big chocolate and cookies n' cream-type of fan so I decided to go for the 'Batch Made in Heaven', which essentially caters to the cookie lovers, consisting of cookie crisp cereal, oreos, and chocolate drizzle. It hits all the right spots for that craving of sweet and creamy, with a nice texture combination of the soft serve and the crunchiness of the cookies. The downside is that it can be overwhelmingly sweet and rich after several bites, so I'd recommend sharing with a partner. I imagine 10-year old me would love to come here every day so it's a great place for the family to bring their kids after the movies, a hot day, or dinner at one of the restaurants nearby.

    Cute shop located inside of Kamakana Ali'i. The color scheme/branding are nice and cohesive to a dessert shop. The names of their products are also cute and catchy, love a good pun. As for the visit, it seemed like there were so many workers (4) but none of them really helpful at the same time, if that makes sense. We were briefly greeted as we walked in through the door. There was one family before us and one more family that came in after us. It was our first time there, so a little overwhelming as to what was going on. The cashier briefly explained what was going on and how to order but we felt very rushed. So we got back out of line to see how it all went down. Finally, when we were ready, we ordered A Batch Made in Heaven (chocolate) and a Feelin' Frooty (fruity). It took a good ten minutes or so to get our order. Both items were yummy to start and then it just ended up being bland at the end. It was a bit pricy too, for about $10 per cup. I'm not sure if I would drive all the way out here for this again, but it was worth a first try.

    The ice cream here is cute and they offer a lot of toppings. I was surprised they had banana ice cream as it's not really common. It was really good! Worth a try but I'm not sure if I would come back. Maybe I'll try the milkshake version next time.

    I found them through various foodie videos on Instagram, and their Ice Cream and Cereal make for a perfect combination - a sweet foodie's dream and the shop being super aesthetic too also pairs well. Stop by if you're ever in the area - Miguel Morales Photography

    A clean, spacious, and a cute yogurt spot! A great place for a cold sweet summer treat! Love how they blend the flavors together. I had the kravin for you, and it was delicious!! Love how the banana and cereal blended well together, the perfect amount of sweetness and texture (crunch)! Glad I stopped by to give it a try.

    Milky swirl - mini size. Vanilla ice cream and frosted flakes with macadamia nuts topping and coconut drizzle

    Cereal lovers dream. Milky Cereal Bar is located at the new shopping mall - Ka Makana Ali'i in Kapolei, a 30 minute drive from the city. It has the makings of Christina Tosi's Milk Bar which popularized cereal soft serve. The difference is the ice cream base. Tosi uses corn flakes infused milk so the ice cream itself already tastes like it. Milky Cereal Bar on the other hand uses this badass machine, and with one hard pull on the lever, it combines and squeezes out the freshly scooped ice cream and cereal of your choice. The combination is up to you. The product cohesively comes out of the machine with the cereal crushed into tiny pieces yet still retains its crunch. I still like Tosi's soft serve better in terms of flavor but Milky gives a whole lot of combination options outside the usual cornflakes and milk combo.

    Located in Ka Makana Ali'i in the corner by HI Finest. Cute store front, and once you enter, there's all the toppings to choose from on display. The menu is posted big enough for all to see, and the ladies greet you right as you enter. Great customer service! We had like 4 kids with us, and each one of them got to choose their type of Milky dessert and cereal, so of course it did take some time for them to make their decision. The ladies were super patient and kind. I checked in on Yelp, and was able to use a 5% discount, so make sure you do that. We got our Milky desserts super quick. Everything we got was kid and adult approved! The Milky wasn't too cereal-y where it overpowered the vanilla iced cream. It was just the right amount of cereal flavor. I got the Captain Crunch milky cup with banana and blueberries. It was soooo yummy! We ended up grabbing covers, which was perfect to take on the road - super convenient! We will most def come back here when we're on this side, as we all loved it here!

    I've seen this place a few times but always walked by wondering why people go eat cereal, then I went on Yelp to realize it wasn't a place selling bowls of cereal!! It's like a milkshake with cereal and other toppings and syrups on top. Friendly staff and a decent amount of options to make up your own concoction or they have fan favorites to choose from. There is a small seating area inside and you can always sit outside in the walkway. Note: there is a set of doors to enter and one to exit.

    We stopped by after dinner to get dessert and then stroll around the mall and I'm so glad we did. It is super cute on the inside! They have fun Neon Signs with cute quotes and a mirror that has a quote to hype you up. We saw lots of teens taking selfies in the mirror with their friends and the atmosphere was just so lively and fun. Service was okay, I think the girl was tired of working and she seemed to be alone. She wasn't very talkative and just kind of dead faced you, but she got the ice cream done nice and fast so I guess you can't really complain. As far as the ice cream goes it was pretty good. The kid in me who loved cereal growing up would be sad to know that I'm not much of a fan of cereal anymore but it was nostalgic and fun. The cereal wasn't stale so that was a huge plus. Overall I probably wouldn't come here again but it was fun and I'd recommend it to other people, especially if you're a cereal lover.

You can even make it a pre-Costco shopping delight stop. The menu is always changing but it feels like there's always something delicious to be had.

Let's just say this place changed A LOT over the past years. Service: 3/5 Waited about 5 minutes to get my order taken. There was a couple in front of me and the worker was chatting with them only. I was not aware of what she was doing until I realized I was waiting for a bit so I looked for myself and saw she was making a waffle cone. Would have appreciated if she told me "Be right with you!" She at least said thank you for waiting. Service used to be a bit more efficient from what I remembered in the past. While we were inside and eating our ice cream, 2 parties came in. They were waiting for about 3 minutes and I saw one of them looking around for the worker who went to the back. All we did was just shake our heads at this moment... Food: 3/5 Holy, these scoops though too. My sister and I paid $11 total for these tiny kid looking scoops. Ice cream tasted good but tastes mediocre now. I wanted a fruity flavor so I got the honeydew flavor that tasted like a melona without the stick. My sister's peanut butter and strawberry one was pretty good. However, I remember when they used to have flavors that I could not get elsewhere but it feels pretty basic nowadays. They give bigger single scoops at Baskin Robbin's for the same price or even a couple cents more. Ambiance: 5/5 I say there's ample enough seating and it feels clean and comfortable. I like sitting near the window but I just don't like that their one and only trash can is right next to that table. Verdict: I am not sure if I will be coming back. I noticed their flavors don't change as much as they used to. I remember being excited to see what's new but after today it seems like they been keeping things the same for awhile now. Between the size of the scoops, service, and the flavors I am not sure if I want to come back.
