Sadly disappointed . We both got the chicken sandwich (I got the spicy one) and although it was a huge chicken breast, it was too thick and I think the chicken felt dry because they were trying to make sure it was cooked through. Mine wasn't that spicy either but the texture combination was there with the pickles & coleslaw. However, the latte with chocolate milk was actually very good! There's street parking and a parking lot behind as well (part of Harris Teeter lot). read more

Went back today & got the hot chicken sandwich & the chocolate milkbread doughnut. I've now found "my order." The dip on the chicken has just the right amount of heat! I was able to eat it & not sweat or feel like my mouth was going to spit fire. The coleslaw was perfect & the potato roll was soft. So much yumminess. The chocolate was sweet & the doughnut was so soft. These doughnuts are amazing. Quick & easy order & fast pick up. read more

Overall very cute place to sit and meet with people. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating available. Adorable vibe inside, very clean and sleek. However, VERY limited menu. That was a bit disappointing. I ended up getting this morning bowl when I came for lunch which had a lot of variety and was pretty good but still wish they had more for those midday meals on a lunch break. read more

One of my favorite takeout places at the lake. Whether it's the chicken sandwich, chicken bites, crispy cauliflower, or grain bowl, I'm happy with any of it. I am usually one of those people who order the same thing from the same place but not at milkbread. I like trying all there new items, because I haven't had a bad meal yet. When it comes to the desserts, I like the cinny roll best or like snagging a seasonal donut. read more

The menu photo is nothing like what I received. Ordered an original chicken sandwich and for $15, I received under cooked tenders on a bun and fries....before tip. I used to love their food but the quality keeps sinking. read more

The iced matcha latte with lavender is my favorite thing on the menu. I always add in strawberry. It's so good. I still haven't found my favorite thing to eat but I will keep trying. Some of the food can be a bit dry sometimes or even too messy. read more

We love to come here for lunch! Their salads/bowls are all incredible! We also love their hot dip sandwich and crispy cauliflower (make sure to add a side of ranch to dip it in!). And Grandfather's Pickles - just typing that makes my mouth water! We always have to get an order to go to enjoy at home - they're a salty, spicy, old-timey tasting pickle. The downside is it is pretty pricey for a counter service restaurant. They have quite a few outdoor tables that allow canine friends. read more

Wonderful food. Great customer service. The prices are high. I would encourage about a 20% reduction in menu items. The fact this place does not take cash is very disappointing and in my opinion not proper at all. How is it legal not to take legal tender? I asked and was told it was a security issue. I don't believe that at all. This place is located in a very safe town. It's a boutique chicken place in one of the most expensive and nicest towns in North Carolina. Lower your prices and allow cash please. Again the food is delicious and the staff is friendly. The place is always very clean as well. read more

I wanted to love this place. Great reviews both on Yelp and from personal local recommendations but I was very disappointed with the biscuit and the sausage. Biscuit was extremely dry and crumbled at first bite. The sausage patty was thin, dry and resembled a frozen patty. The "jammy" egg was fine but could not overcome the lackluster co-stars. My wife had the chicken biscuit. Similar result although the chicken was excellent. Unfortunately the breast had to be eaten by hand as the biscuit disintegrated and could not hold up as a sandwich. read more

The bowls were quite pricey and were not filled much. The menu was also a little confusing to follow, and when I asked the cashier to explain what was in a bowl, she just restated the name of the bowl. The donut was absolutely amazing and the seating is elegant. Such a nice atmosphere in the morning! read more

I randomly found this place, and I'm glad I did! The restaurant is super cute and simple; I really thought the design concept was nice. I got the fried chicken sandwich with a side of mac and cheese and a chocolate chip cookie. It was all around 25ish dollars. The sandwich was good and fresh; I'm thinking they make them to order. Wasn't heavily seasoned, but it had pickles and mayo, so that added flavor. The mac and cheese was ok, but I would try a different side next time. The chocolate chip cookie is one of those that aren't very sweet, and the salt added on top added an additional layor of flavor. If you want something a little different than Chick-fil-A, I recommend this place. They are super friendly, and the food is tasty. read more

If your a fan of the milk bread at kindred you are going to love these donuts. Donuts out of the milk bread, genius idea. Such a neat little place too. Huge space inside and a nice big outdoor seating area, I'd come work here if that's what I did! Nice coffee bar menu, also serving wine. Nice menu for breakfast, bowls, toasts, not just sugary donuts! Also a lot of crispy chicken sandwiches! We went end of the day for a sugar fix after dinner, the server behind the counter was really sweet and talked us through the menu, and everything sounded so delish! We settled on getting a 1/2 dozen, 2 original, 2 seasonal strawberry frosted, and 2 milk chocolate covered. I've read so much about these I can't believe I'm actually trying them....the original, yep amazing, brioche type dough, glazed with lovely sugary mess. What's not to love. The chocolate was really good too, I have to say I didn't really get any strawberry flavor from that one, but other than being pink, it still tasted great. I'm a Krispy Kreme fan for life, but if in Davidson I would get these for sure. Just different, but a great sweet treat, can't wait to go back and try the milk bread mini cinnis....cinnamon rolls out of milk bread . Great location too right off I-77...this was a great end to my day read more

As much as I wanted to love Milkbread, I don't. I waited excitedly to try the much anticipated Milkbread donuts and found them, though freshly made, heavy and oily. My work occasionally brings them and we're 50/50 as a group about them. The menu is limited and I realized at todays visit that I just don't like the arrogance here. Stopping in at lunchtime with only two occupied tables, I asked if I could replace the jammy egg on the Green Goddess Cobb salad $14 with avocado. I was not only told "no substitutions" I was also told I could remove the egg with no price reduction and then be charged an additional $3 if I wanted avocado which would then make the salad $17. Restaurants prefer no substations because it's easier on the kitchen but at a restaurant with two tables that had already been served, they wouldn't have been too taxed to swap those out to meet a customers allergens. And as a jammy egg and an avocado are both $3 upgrades and therefore a wash, the restaurant was just being difficult for the sake of being difficult. I have always gotten takeout here but we stayed in this time. I was asked for a tip when signing the receipt and left $5. I realized after sitting down that I tipped $5 for ordering my meal at the counter and someone walking it over to me when it was ready, aka never to be seen again. I poured my own beverage and bussed my own table when done. Not sure why I was asked to tip anyone. My tablemates' salad did come with a jammy egg and she said it was cold and unappealing, she'd assumed it would be warm and fresh. Milkbread is a no for me. Our salads for $11 and $14 in their small disposable bowls were unspectacular and we did our own bussing. That snippy "no substitutions" comment lost my future business today. read more

One the best chicken biscuits I've ever had in my life ! Awesome crunch and texture on the breading of the chicken is super moist and tender. Donuts aren't half bad either try both flavors. A menu for all to be had here you can get avocado toast or the standard southern biscuits. Easy 5 stars. Music playing in here ranged from Charley Crockett to Nirvana. Pretty chilly in here so make sure you order coffee. read more

MilkBread is sure to become a Davidson staple. This is a donuts and coffee kind of place. They're super active on IG so be sure to follow for hours and updates. The inside is trendy, bright, and beautiful. Table and bar height seating is spread out and open. You could easily meet here for a casual conversation or with a group for lunch. I stopped in for a to go order today because I've been dying to try them! The donuts and coffee are incredible. The classic donut is perfect. Cinnamon forward flavor and pairs so well with their coffee. Incredible and a really nice treat. Chewy, warm, and a glaze that cases it all inside. My Avocado Toast was ok. Honestly when I opened it, I had thought, "is this for a bird!?" It was smothered in seeds and salt. Just a tad heavy handed for me. Prices are VERY fair. $15 for my coffee, tea, and toast. I think that's great for homemade REAL food. I am looking forward to trying more of their sandwiches and treats in the future. read more

Best mini cinnamon buns ever... plus the coffee is delicious too. My new favorite little spot.

I mobile ordered my meal. I got the Whole-ish salad and the classic milk bread doughnut. I thought the salad was really good. The dressing was nice and tangy. My only complaint is that I wish their were more greens. As for the doughnut, it was out of this world. The hint of apple cider in the glaze really elevated it. The doughnut itself was nice and fluffy. read more

I had never heard of milkbread, but my wife suggested we try it on our way home from an appointment.I was a little apprehensive at first since she said it was a doughnut/coffee shop, and we were going for lunch, but I can say that was somewhat of a mischaracterization. The food options varied from doughnuts to chicken biscuits/sandwiches, to salads, so it is more wide-ranging then I thought. I had the Hot Dip (chicken sandwich with the breast tossed in hot sauce) and fries. It was a good sized sandwich and very tasty! Not as hot as I was expecting, but I'm not going to deduct anything for that. The fries were very good as well and everything came out piping hot. My wife got a chicken biscuit and an original glaze doughnut. The doughnut was excellent!! I did not try the biscuit as I had chicken of my own. I do not travel up to Davidson often, so I am excited that a new location is opening in Plaza Midwood in the coming months!! read more

Disappointing doughnuts. Yelped the area and saw these and drove specifically for them. Have to say my kids and I did not care for them. They were more like baked bread with icing rather than a doughnut. Probably will not return. read more

This place is bright, airy and clean. They take pride in their product and their restaurant. The coffee is good, strong, fresh and flavorful without being too sweet. The milkbread...what can I even say? This puts all other donuts to shame. They are fresh, with an excellent texture. It managed to have some density while also feeling airy. The homemade quality will carry you back to a simpler and happier time. The avocado toast is on a sourdough bread and is a good sized meal. And the flavors hit just right. I'm not a fan of curly fries however here they are cooked crispy and I found them to be the perfect blend of crunch and salt. The chicken tenders are cooked well, tender and moist with an appropriate about of breading that does not dominate the chicken. The mini cinni's have a whipped cream cheese icing. While my son doesn't love whipped icing or cream cheese icing he said it was still decent. The Cinni itself had a even, airy texture that paired well with the airyness of the icing. Top to bottom this place is a 5 star for us! Check them out!! read more

I was very happy with our entire meal! The plain glazed donut is the best I've had in the area so far!! We all had different food items at our table and not one person had a complaint.

Another great review in Davidson, this place is chill at a great location. The morning bowl is an explosion of taste from start to finish. Fresh labdeh, dusted with sea salt and pepper, enhance the flavors that are waiting in the bowl - fresh grapefruit, blueberries, granola soaked in turmeric, mint, etc... Amazing!!! Coupled with Summit coffee and that's a great way to start any day - not too little, not too much, just right. read more

Everything I've always had here is delicious! Add pimento cheese to a chicken biscuit is probably my favorite thing. I would suggest a couple more kid options that are very simple. My kids never eat what I get them because it's too "fancy". Like a parfait with just yogurt, granola and fruit. read more

The fried chicken sandwich is really good, it's probably the best food item on the menu. The grilled one is decent & didn't love the salad that I tried. I was super excited that they had a matcha latte with a milk substitute option. The original glazed donuts are pretty good too- wasn't impressed with the chocolate ones. The cinnamon rolls are tempting, but I haven't tried them yet because I haven't been able to justify the price. read more

I'm a firm believer that Krispy Kreme has the best donut and always will, but these are definitely a very close second on my list, they are sooo good. Dislikes: The bread on the nutella toast was a little hard, but the flavor was really good! Bubble Juice is just slightly flavored sparkling water, I had to get it because of how cute the can is.
