Milk bar was my aunts favorite and my mom loves it. I also love it. They have such a nice variety of sandwich options that are so different than regular sandwiches. Service is always friendly and efficient. The restaurant is clean, inviting and nicely decorated. I love the pictures focused on different countries/regions. I love PoBoys, but it's nice to have Milk Bar as a. Option in New Orleans. read more

Love the Milk Bar!! We visit usually at least once a week for after school treats. Their croissant sandwiches are hands down THE BEST and a great, affordable option for a quick bite. The staff are always super friendly and welcoming. And if you have little Littles who aren't ready for an entire milkshake they are happy to split the shake. This week I tried their new okey dokey artichokey and it was AMAZING! Definitely will be trying some new things from them soon. Always quiet, clean and cold water available for free! read more

Shrimply the best is an amazing sandwich. Just do yourself a favor and order it! Shrimp and cheese combination was perfect.

This place has cows everywhere! It seems like they've gotten some new ones recently. Such adorable decor. Service was fast even though they were busy. I had a go bananas milkshake and my honey had a caramel carumba milkshake today they of course were amazing. We have never had a bad milkshake at this place! It is right on the St Charles line of the street car. They've got a clean bathroom and paper towels. There's free water out on the counter. People next to us are eating sandwiches and they look really good. They have fun names too. See the menu below. read more

Most amazing staff ever! My favorite sandwich in the universe is Christmas in July Sammy. Talk about just emotions and goodness in a bite!! Well I ordered one for pickup and on my way was hit by a truck at Claiborne and S,Carrollton. I called them to tell them it'd be a couple hours bc of Mardi Gras and a police unit under staffed. What did they do??? Drove me the best present ever to my car and didn't charge me. Just prayed my day got better. Yall.... this place is the BEST!!! read more

The Milk Bar never misses. I love their sandwiches! Always fresh, flavorful, and made with quality ingredients. The bread is perfect and everything tastes homemade. It's one of my favorite lunch spots in the city, quick service and good vibes every time. read more

Been here twice; the sandwiches are delicious (had Shrimply the Best & I Dream of Abergine), and the people I was with loved their sandwiches too. The staff is friendly and the place is really cool read more

Milk Bar was so yummy! I came with a friend and we were looking for an easy meal and stumbled upon milk bar. There was a ton of people inside. It was kinda hard to find a place to sit but spots cleared up pretty fast. I got the Christmas in July sandwich and it was great! The sandwiches are huge too, so I had enough left over for another meal! My only complaint is that it was pretty hot inside the building, but I think it's worth it to come anyways. I can't wait to try another sandwich from here! read more

If you're looking for a great salad, come to Milk Bar. It's rare that I can find inventive salads at a lunch spot but Milk Bar offers seven amazing salads. I tried the Mediterranean Lamb Salad which comes with these cubes of roasted eggplant that really make the salad interesting. The balsamic vinaigrette is something you have to try if you're a fan of vinaigrette. It was the perfect mix. My coworker for the Chicken Parm Sub and loved it, as well. read more

Service was amazing. Food top notch. I had the shrimp sandwich. What a perfect balance between all ingredients. Not heavy on anything. Bread was soft but not over bready if that makes sense. The shrimp was fresh and not overcooked. Pesto was delicious but not overbearing. Thin sliced tomatoes didnt soak the bread. But the main thing that popped out was the cheese. Thats where the name of the the restaurant makes sense for a sandwich place. Cheese was sooooo good. And the cheese pull was entertaining and exactly what excites you when you divide each half of the sandwich. I wish i lived in NOLA so i could have this weekly read more

The Milk Bar did not disappoint. The sandwiches and milkshakes are excellent, and there are veggie options in sandwiches and salads. The staff was super friendly. This is well worth a trip. Our suggestion would be to take the streetcar. I am always skeptical when Yelp says a restaurant has the best sandwich in the State, but I think they may be right. To top everything off, they gave us each a sucker that matched the flavor of milkshakes we ordered. The Milk Bar will be on my must-visit list for any future trips to NOLA. read more

I've had Milk Bar on my radar for months. Not bad, but didn't live up to my expectations. Clean little strip mall setting, with one table outside and 6-8 inside. The cow motif is homey. Friendly, quick service. Tried two sandwiches, the George Clooney and the Occidental Oriental. Both were fine, and may even be considered excellent in other cities, but in this town, we're used to more flavor. We've got a dozen sandwich & poboy shops that are way better. The Clooney was just boring. The oriental was a bit more flavorful, but nothing that I'll be craving or making the trip back uptown for a second visit. read more

very cute inside, the workers were very nice and polite. good selection of chips to choose from, sandwich came out in 10 minutes. great place for a quick lunch. very tasty and i would recommend ! read more

This very humble sandwich shop is the bomb! Funny, that's their signature sandwich too. My friend had da bomb and I had a poboy. I doubt you can go wrong. Did I mention the milkshakes, sweet, cold and delicious. Definitely will visit again when I visit next. read more

Great food, great service and a great atmosphere. Will be back to try more of the menu.

Saw an article stating that this place is the best sandwich shop in the state! I got here on Saturday noon to find out, but it was packed. Ordered what is considered the sandwich to order: Occidental Oriental. They seem to specialize in coffee and milkshakes though, looking at the decor. The store is part of a corner plaza in the edge of east Carrollton. The sandwich came hot with melting cheese, but it was just toasted banhmi. Bun was light and crunchy with peanut sauce and same trimmings just with chicken slices. It was good, but not best in state. For best bahnmi with half the price, go inside the Hong Kong market in Gretna. 3.5 stars, next door seems promising, Cheers! read more

Milk Bar - Inside, couldn't avoid people - Sandwiches Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Absolutely delicious! I'm not sure if it's just me but the bread is almost kind of sweet, reminded me of a donut, maybe because it was really soft? Not as sweet as donut though. The staff are great. I came in on a Tuesday around noon and it took about 5 minutes for my sandwich to be ready. They offered me a cold water while I waited. After 5 minutes, 9 people came in to get in line so be prepared to wait s little. This place is always booming. I got the clooney's choice and it was great. The toppings and cheese melted in my mouth. This place is located off S Carrollton Ave nearby Walgreens with plenty of parking. read more

My new go to place. Had the psycho chicken sandwich. Really good. And the banana milkshake was as good as a shake as I ever had! Definitely the best I've had here in New Orleans. Really great/fair prices. Very friendly staff. read more

Holy Cow! I've been working near this place for the past two weeks, and kept meaning to try it, but it closes at 5 PM, when rehearsals end. Today, though, I came out early to ensure I had a chance to try it, and it was very much worth it. It was hard to choose from a selection of sandwiches that all looked so good, and just as I finally decided on a chicken parm po'boy, I saw the daily special, a pork banh mi. I couldn't resist and I'm glad I didn't. This was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. The bread to filling ratio was perfect. The bread was wonderfully crusty, but not too dense. The meat was tender and flavorful. The sauce was delicious, and just the right amount. I didn't eat in, as I was ordering just before closing time, but it had a relaxed, funky vibe that I really liked. I am one of those possibly unhelpful people who only writes a review of it was AWESOME or AWFUL and this was the former. If you are looking for a good sandwich, I have a feeling you won't go wrong with anything here. read more

Clearly Milk Bar turned this location around since my last review (in 2014). When my first lunch choice was unexpectedly closed, I was hunting around for a new spot and this popped up in my Yelp search and I immediately started thinking about my favorite sandwiches. I had the always yummy Shirley Valentine AND a cup of the soup of the day which was tomato basil. The SV was delicious and filling as always and the soup hit the spot. I need to get back over there for a Shrimply the Best soon. I miss having them closer when they had a spot over on Prytania, but then their milkshakes were dangerously close to my house. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Most folks take out but there are some tables to dine in but don't plan to linger. The parking lot for the strip mall usually has spots but there is also off street parking. read more

My brother and I opted for the Ocidental Oriental Ciabatta Sandwich, containing chicken, peanut satay sauce, mozzarella, red peppers, cucumber, carrot, cilantro, and shredded lettuce. The pros: it's a very big sandwich, very dollar friendly. The cons: the flavor was lacking, just mid par. Also the strawberry milkshake was acceptable but I've had much better. read more

Grabbed lunch to go and boy was this place hopping. Had to wait a bit so I ordered a chocolate shake while waiting. That was gone in about a second. Yum! Fun moo cow art decorates the walls and a good amount of rotating self seating. I ordered the Aubergenie and Occidental. On this trip I added, chips. Both sams came bagged individually with an added lolli for dessert, it was perfect for my impromptu picnic. My sandwich was so juicy and big that I shared it with another friend and was more than full on just 1/2 a sam. Take advantage of calling ahead or online if picking up, it'll make things ho much faster. read more

The sandwichs were amazing! Its a small,cute place, with the bulk of their efforts going into the food and it shows. The bread in the sandwichs is a knockout. I recommend the "Clooney's Choice". read more

I had the Thai lamb sandwich. It was a great sandwich big enough for two meals. I'll try something else there soon.

So, I have a story for you. This place used to be downtown- by Tulane's Tidewater building. I went in one August afternoon for a sandwich. Got it wrapped up and took out my wallet to pay. Credit card machine was down and I had no cash. Guy behind the counter said- 'get me next time.' Two days later, Katrina shut NOLA down. We moved away, but we have a college student who decided to go to NOLa. I'm driving around and I see 'The Milk Bar' on Carrollton. Can't be. I go up, see the menu on the door- it is. I'll be danged. I go in, order, eat- sandwich was fantastic- and the place starts filling up. They start running out sandwiches and there's the guy. I go up to him, $20 in hand and tell him the story. He won't take my money. He just laughs. I leave it on the counter and start to go and he says, 'Wait, I'll get you a shirt.' Ignore the strip mall location. This sandwich shop is one of the best uptown. The bread is made in house and the different kinds of sandwiches- all are good. They even offer poboys- but their signature sandwiches are the bomb. read more

A really great spot for sandwiches! They have a great selection, with my favourites being the Sweet Thai Chilli Chicken and Christmas in July (pictured). The portion is quite large so it can be split across two meals, and they accept NOLABUCKS, which makes it a really great option for Tulane students. Also, the candy is a nice touch. :) COVID-19 Response: they've been operating under take-out only, and you can call ahead and pick up at your convenience.

A cool, rustic neighborhood vibe in a small strip-mall storefront. Buzzing with several customers at 2:00 in the afternoon. Must be a good sign. Nice variety of unusual menu options- sandwiches with roasted lamb, roasted veg, various cheeses, chicken, roast beef, shrimp - all on good, chewy, crusty ciabatta rolls. Counter service is quick and friendly. Nothing fancy here but the sandwiches and salads, and for less than $10. Can't go wrong. read more
