Milk Bar reviews and discussion

I tried Milk Bar for the first time when I visited Washington, D.C. for work. And then had to go back again the next time I visited! I'm very happy that there's a location in Chicago now, so I can get truffles whenever I want.

So yummy and aesthetic. Equally fun to get cake in the mail. Cake itself is very flavorful and isn’t dry ! Yummy frosting but is very sugary. Would recommend for long distance friend gifts. Can’t go wrong and it’s a fun unboxing.

My birthday cake arrived three days late, completely warm (the box and even the cold packs), and damaged. Definitely not safe to consume. Unfortunately for me, there was nothing Milk Bar could do, not one thing. After my terrible experience, I checked the reviews and learned that this happens quite often. It might taste good (dont know as I never got to try it) but the customer service is awful.

I've only tried the mini crunchy cookies from this brand, but they are delicious. Both flavors I tried were equally as good. I like that the bags can be resealed after opening.

Their gluten free products are so yummy! Buying their gluten free birthday cakes has been such a highlight. It tastes delicious and the little truffles hidden throughout the layer are delicious! I love their truffles and their marshmallow cookies as well! Definitely a fun and festive celebration. It’s fun to that you can order it online and have it delivered to your doorstep. Also their ice cream 🍦 is super yummy too! A fun day out at the mall and some ice cream as a reward! Must try! 😋

As of today, I have only tried the cookies, which were a kind and generous gift from the Thingtesting team. They are worth the hype. And now I know they sell cake and ice cream. I have a feeling I will be trying those soon too 😎

This is a vintage review as I don’t really buy their products much today (I guess I could visit them in a neighborhood I’m not in often but idk) even though I see them at work, but I am very fond of their products in other ways. I actually worked and frequented the area in which the original Milk Bar location opened (blocks from NYC’s Union Square and I lamented the day they opened their limited storefront across the street and the soft serve selection was never the same again) during 2009-2011. I spent many years cooking variations of their Blueberry & Cream Cookies with different mix-ins and different permutations of their layers cakes before they became available nationally, but not for a while. Yes, I baked the cake in the photo. Also, their banana cream pie is not to be slept on as it uses overripe bananas. Honorable mention: Ants on a Log soft serve with raisins.

Just ordered a gluten free cake for my friends bachelorette and it was so good. I’m not a gluten free person and have no need to be and usually can toast a difference but not with milk bar. Absolutely wonderful cake it was completely gone by the second day. 10/10. Given it was shipped too, in perfect condition!

I have mixed feelings about Milk Bar. There’s something about their products that’s very nostalgic and fun to have small amounts of. But beyond that, flavor combos are super mediocre and they are extremely and excessively sugary

Love Milk Bar! The birthday cake is so delicious, but very rich and sweet. A small slice per person is plenty. Their birthday cake and chocholate truffles are my favorite. If you can make it to a storefront, the cereal milk soft serve is amazing. I've interacted with their customer service about an issue and they're stellar as well.

Im obsessed with all things Christina Tosi and Milk Bar is no exception. Everything Milk Bar has to offer is interesting, delightful, and unique. Both in store and online order is absolutely worth it. The iconic Birthday Cake is familiar yet unexpected. All the cookies are absolutely delicious with my favorite being Blueberries and Cream. Can't forget the Crack Pie (literal crack with how yummy it is!), which in my opinion is their most underrated dessert they have to offer. You cannot go wrong with anything at Milk Bar!

I had their cookie ice cream sandwich and Omg that thing is so sweet and tasty. I am not a huge sweet person but I think whoever like cereal milk concept would love this stuff!

I enjoyed this product so much that I have multiple little tins around the house that I use for storage. The cookie tins are also a great gift that keeps well. It's always a bummer when someone is sent lots of treats on their big day and they go bad before they can get through everything. This isn't an issue at all with Milkbar!

I never knew I needed to build my own tiny little cake until they told me I needed to. Milk bar is the antidote to a bad day, with its bubble gum pink interiors to its delectable delights, and there’s even a slice of cake for us gluten-free gals. This place has it all.

Omigod, Milkbar! I first read about this confectionary/bakery in a magazine, which featured a recipe for their cereal milk cookies. We decided to purchase from them direct for a birthday, and we have now ordered from them three times. They're expensive and decadent. It's definitely a special occasion type package. First, a chocolate birthday cake set (with ice cream and truffles). I'm not a fan of chocolate, but it was for my husband, who devoured the truffles instantly and worked on the cake diligently for days. The cereal milk ice cream in nuanced and not too rich. The cake arrived in perfect condition the first time and was very pretty. The second order was tinned cookies for Xmas. The tin was very cute and the cookies were are intact and beautiful. It took us several days to get through them, as they're large. Also, yum. The third order was an individual cake (fruit flavored), which arrived in good (but not great) condition. Minor shipping bumps and imperfections, which were easily fixed with a cake knife. We will continue ordering from them.

I tried Milk Bar’s cereal milk soft serve at their flagship store in NYC - it wasn’t my favorite thing in the world because it had a salty taste to it. I also tried their confetti cookie, and this was super delicious!!

Milkbar is great. My experience started when I watched the docuseries of Chef's Table with Christina Tosi. I tried a few of their items in store in Washington, DC and ordered the birthday cake for my parter last year. The delivery service in NY was quick, arriving same-day and I would totally reccomend them. I cannot speak on the (grocery) store items but anything bought in official Milkbark store are great and if you happen to be in NY the delivery services won't disappoint. I have also received a delivery of assorted cookies that kept well and arrived in a branded tin. Loved it!

After watching the netflix series on the owner Christina Tosi, I bought 3 cakes for my Baby Shower! They were shipped all the way to Texas, and unfazed! They were a show stopper/ conversational piece as well . Each cake was just as delicious as the other and very affordable!

I personally love the cornflake chocolate chip marshmallow cookies but they were out of stock at my bodega so I got these candy cane cornflake chocolate chip cookies instead as a gift for my mom. At $5.99 its not a terrible price point. But I'm wondering if they're any good? Seems like a good batch to give out for the holidays. My mother seemed pretty happy with them.

There’s no denying that getting Milkbar delivered to your door is always a sweet surprise. The cookies are such a treat and cakes are pretty tasty. However, the price is just a bit too high in my opinion which takes my review from 4 to 3 stars.
