    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
    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!

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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 also tried the pistachio croissant and asparagus danish this time round and both were extremely good as well. I would have no qualms with re-ordering either. The only note is the pistachio cream is pretty runny, so it's hard to cut and share, as the cream just oozes out. The workers there are super friendly and kind. The drinks are also very good if you're looking to get a little extra treat as well.

I got a sausage bbang, a chocopie, and a dalgona latte. The sausage bbang was soggy on the bottom and honestly tasted like it was from the day before. The chocopie barely had any filling, just a thin layer of marshmallow and jam. It honestly felt like they used most of the marshmallow for their Dubai choco cookie because it's probably more profitable, instead of properly filling the chocopie. If that's the case, it's better not to sell it at all than serve something like that. The dalgona latte was also disappointing. With ice, the drink only filled to the bottom third line of the cup marking. Clearly, they skimped on the milk. There was also a weird moment when I paid. My total was $15.25 and I paid cash, but I was given $4.75 in change. When I said it should be $5, she seemed confused and asked what I meant. I told her I literally gave you a quarter right now, and she questioned it before eventually giving me the correct change. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and assume it was a mistake. I understand times are hard, but charging more for products that clearly had corners cut doesn't sit right with me. It just comes across like there's no integrity. Clearly the quality and portions are going downhill. I wasn't even planning on writing this review. I was going to stay quiet, but the chocopie really ticked me off.

And I know that vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting is pretty easy to make, but sometimes I'd rather just buy baked goods than make them for myself, especially when I'm driving past what I thought was a popular (and presumably good) bake shop. I expected a high-quality cupcake. The cupcakes looked cute, but they were as dry as the Sahara. They should have been labeled as white cupcakes as I didn't detect any vanilla in them. I suspect that the "buttercream" was made with milk and margarine and powdered sugar.....so much powdered sugar. It was sickeningly sweet, and it was dry too. And a true bettercream doesn't even use powdered sugar. So not only were the cupcakes terrible, they were not even what they purported to be. This is like calling a cut of meat a filet mignon and serving a hamburger. Von's, Ralphs and Albertson's make better cupcakes than this for a fraction of othe price.
