Horrendous! Actually so nasty inside the actual shop. Yes it's spacious and you will have seating with cool decor, but service was so slow and the ice cream was horrible

Chocolate Chip Cookie
Anisha Y.

The soft serve was a bit too salty, but I really enjoyed the soft chocolate chip cookie - although it would have been better warmed up. Cute ambiance and very friendly staff!

I walk by all the time and finally stopped in for an afternoon pick me up. I got the cereal milk latte (iced). It was reasonably priced for $6. It was really yummy! Not too sweet. It came in one size and was a little smaller than I thought but I think the ratio of everything was good for the portion. You order at the counter and pick up your drink at the coffee bar in the middle area.

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!

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.

Milk Milk Bar Pie Slice and Birthday Cake Slice

've loved Milk Bar ever since I watched the Chef's Table episode featuring Christina Tosi -- it made me fall in love with her creativity and the whole playful vibe of Milk Bar. I'm honestly not a huge sweets girl, but I love thoughtful, fun desserts. If I'm going to indulge, I want to feel like a little kid in a candy store -- and that's exactly how Milk Bar made me feel. I got a slice of the Confetti Birthday Cake and it was perfection. Moist, nostalgic, and just pure joy. My husband ordered the Milk Bar Pie and was equally obsessed. I have the Milk Bar cookbook at home, and this visit totally reignited my excitement to try some of the recipes myself. Such a fun, happy little treat spot.

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!

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.

Lori C.

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

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.

Cereal Milk Soft Serve Cup

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

Antonia F.

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.

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.

This used to be my favorite Italian bakery. I haven't been to this bakery in years like ten years…read moresince I was a teenager. Today I decided to make a special trip to go here to grab a few goodies. I forgot how small the place was and how low the ceilings were. That wasn't an issue though. The place was nice and cakes were stacked neatly. What was surprising to me is that they don't have any cookies laid in the front display. It's all placed in the back almost hidden. I was deeply disappointed with their cookie selection. It was deeply surprising that they don't sell the butter cookies that had jam in the middle and dipped with chocolate on one side with sprinkles. I did ask the clerk and even showed him a pic of what I was looking for and he said they never sold them. They only had the linzer cookies and they didn't look so good. They also did not have the lobster tail. They did have the sfogliatelle which they also called a lobster tail. I thought they were not the same? Some bakeries sell both and they are definitely not the same. I did end up buying one of their sfogliatelle with cream and some rugelachs. The sfogliatelle was good but the rugelachs tasted slightly underbaked. It did taste fresh though unlike many I've had in other bakeries. However, for $28 per pound, I wouldn't get it again. For those not having lobster tail and not having the Italian cookies, I will have to give Veniero's a low rating. I never thought an Italian bakery would not carry staples. Very disappointed. I need to find another Italian bakery now.

Stopped by Daily Provisions to order breakfast on a Wednesday morning. There's seating indoors…read more(with low back stools) and seating out front (about four tables). I had to run to work after an appointment so I ordered for takeout. The person taking my order was friendly. I opted for the Lumberjack and a black cold brew. I received the drink very quickly, with a short wait for the sandwich. While waiting, one member of the staff stocking up supplies on the side started chatting with me and then she offered to check up on my sandwich. She came out with it shortly thereafter. She was very friendly and helpful. The sandwich held up well during my 15-minute commute to the office. It is a really indulgent sandwich, with each bite revealing the sweetness and butteriness of the maple crueller, the saltiness of the thick cut bacon, and the savoriness of the cheese and the eggs as the yolks popped. I sipped the cold brew in between bites to cut the richness. It was a very satisfying meal. The Lumberjack is not something I would recommend you eat every day, but it's good as an occasional treat. In the past I've ordered lunch from Daily Provisions via delivery (the "Chefy" salad and the chicken milanese with arugula salad are my favorites), but I might start adding other breakfast sandwiches to the mix.

I ordered doordash so didn't experience the place itself, but I tried the new salmon niçoise salad…read moreand I really enjoyed it. It was a very decent amount of fish and a very hearty bowl because of the other toppings. The anchovy dressing was great to top it off.

What a delightful surprise! After working late and attending an event after work, one of my…read morecoworkers suggested we stop here because they loved their cookies. I had never heard of the place before, but I was happy to give it a try -- and I'm so glad I did. From the moment you walk in, the experience feels special. The store has two beautiful double doors that create such a grand entrance, and once inside, you immediately feel the energy. The place was bustling with people, and everyone seemed happy and excited -- from the customers to the team behind the counter and the baristas. The cookie case was overflowing with so many amazing choices that it was hard to decide! I ended up getting the Rocky Road cookie, a Double Chocolate Chip cookie, a Two Chip Chocolate Chip cookie, and a blueberry muffin to enjoy for breakfast the next morning. The service was absolutely impeccable, and everyone I interacted with was warm, friendly, and delightful. When I got home, I had half of the Rocky Road cookie with a cup of tea, and it was incredible. The cookie was large and chunky but still perfectly enjoyable -- not heavy or overwhelming. It literally melted in my mouth. The chocolate was rich and smooth, and every bite was just delicious. The next morning, I tried the blueberry muffin, and it was just as impressive. It was light and airy, not overly sweet like many blueberry muffins can be. It truly felt like a breakfast pastry. The blueberries tasted fresh and burst with flavor in every bite. I will definitely be back for more cookies. This was such a wonderful find, and I'm so happy my coworker introduced me to this place!

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!! I was blown away by the crispy edges and the interior wasn't too soft gooey either. The chocolate and walnuts added to the cookie enhanced the flavor even more! For such a big cookie the middle was cooked perfectly. Very chunky and sizable cookie too so I ate it throughout the day rather than one sitting!!
