    Cherry Cola Pie Slice
    Adam M.

    I stopped in to try Milk Bar's new Cherry Cola Pie. The sign out front really got me. First off, the two people working there were very kind and welcoming. It felt like really good vibes. The pie itself was good but a little unbalanced. Each section tasted wonderful but when eaten in one bite, the chocolate cookie crust dominated. Will I be back for other Milk Bar items? Of course! I don't go often but I don't remember being displeased with anything I've ever gotten there.

    Small spot. Ordered a slice of the B'Day Cake and one of the Milk Bar Pie. Both were so delicious, but the pie was the unexpected hit.

    Celebrations abound at milk bar! Excellent location for a birthday or just a quick treat. The decadent creations not only look good but taste good. Great service from our server however she was the only one on duty and this place is very popular so it got crowded very quickly Not a lot of space to sit so it is great for grab and go .

    The cake was moist and arrived on time from my Uber delivery. It has a great taste and very sweet, however it's not what I expected. The Birthday Cake is not even nearly or remotely close to Birthday Cake flavor, in fact both cakes taste as if they're made with way too much cream cheese. I was definitely not expecting a cream cheese taste. Had I wanted cheesecakes I would've ordered somewhere else. The cakes are also very small for the price. It was great to try but it's a no for me. If you're looking for chocolate with buttercream or Birthday Cake flavored cake, this is NOT it. These cake slices definitely have a cream cheese type frosting as if you're eating a cheesecake. Not bad but not what I ordered or wanted.

    $11 Pumpkin Coffee Cake Slice
    Olaedo E.

    I stopped by this little hole in the wall location and got the pumpkin coffee cake slice that I've been seeing all over instagram. Upon entry, I notice it was dimly lit, and really tight inside. There were 2 people ordering and then after I joined the line, two other people came inside and the store became packed. The girl at the counter was really friendly. The slice of cake itself was $11. It wasn't the biggest slice, but it was tasty. The pumpkin flavor really shined through and I get why it's really popular on social media. I probably wouldn't get it again until it comes back around next fall, but it definitely satisfied my craving.

    I've been to Milk (Brooklyn) on a couple of occasions and decided to try the pumpkin pie bar. I highly anticipated trying this limited offering and upon trying it wasn't what I expected. I could taste the pumpkin and the spices but nothing warranting me to give another try. It wasn't anything special in my opinion. I cannot wholeheartedly recommend this specific dessert.

    I haven't been to a milk bar in ages. I'm glad that this place is opened so late. I was searching for a spot that doesn't close when the clock strikes 9 or 10pm. I really wanted the strawberry shortcake cake truffles, but it's seasonal so couldn't get it. The new seasonal truffle that will come out so they said to wait for that one. However, I did get the make your own or build your own pint. Really cool what goes in it! It was tasty! I don't think you can go wrong with what goes in your own ice cream pint. I will definitely go back and make it again.

    I was exploring in Williamsburg and came across this cute ice cream/cookie shop and had to check it out! It wasn't busy at all so I was attended by a nice gentleman who let me sample both the Cereal Milk & Toasted Marshmallow ice cream before deciding which one I wanted. I chose the Toasted Marshmallow ice cream with torched mini marshmallows. What a yummy combo! I also got the Cornflake white chocolate chip marshmallow cookie which was both interesting and delicious.

    Birthday cake

    Cake was ordered in November for a set birthday in January. Cake arrived on time packed with reusable gel ice packs. It was wrapped and sealed nicely to preserve its shape. Cake tasted fresh and was a great surprise to have on a special occasion.

    Birthday Cake
    Emily C.

    3.5 stars. I've actually never had Milk Bar cakes before and have always wanted to try them. I got a slice of their classic birthday cake as well as a slice of the chocolate birthday cake. Honestly, I think it's overhyped. Both were too sweet and the cakes itself weren't very moist (although it wasn't necessarily dry either). The cakes were very crumbly and the frosting was definitely on the sweeter side, which I was already anticipating. The birthday cake slice had small pieces of crunchy crumbs that I actually thought was a bit too much. The chocolate cake had chocolate chips within the cake and had the same frosting. Definitely need to try yourself to judge the flavors and I'm glad I got to try it but be prepared for some sweet cakes. They also have cookies, ice cream and other popular items that I've tried and enjoyed in the past but definitely on the sweeter side.

When I asked the staff, they regretfully informed me that they did not have slices that day, so I went with the next best option... an 8" cake! I didn't get any writing on the cake, as I already had a Happy Birthday candle, and I didn't want to add extra icing to the cake. I liked how well they package the cake. The box was large enough, and they line the bag with a thin piece of cardboard to stabilize the box. I'm not a big sweets person, but I enjoyed the chocolate-y richness of the cake. The cake itself was moist and the pudding held everything together well. I would be back to try their Strawberry Shortcake and other desserts.

We each ordered our main, after which they bring out an enormous tray of all these lovely nibble salads, pickles, dips, and pita. I don't eat wheat, and haven't my entire life, so I usually don't say anything about it if it seems to me the place doesn't cater to that sort of restriction.

Hubby had the steak shishlika which was perfectly tender and charred at once. I had the chicken shishlika which was good, but not the wow of the steak.
