Minor Figures earns strong reviews for creamy, café-level oat milks and canned lattes that often froth into silky foam and elevate coffee, though opinions split on consistency and taste. Reviews praise the barista blend’s smooth texture, fun branding, and simple-leaning formulations, while noting variable frothing at home, occasional watery or bitter notes, muted matcha and thin chai, and gluten cross-contamination concerns.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
I enjoy the oat milk barista edition, but oat milk isn't actually a healthful drink due to the high amounts of rapeseed / canola oil! Regardless, great to mix with flat whites. I don't really find a significant difference between this and the similar variant of Oatly. I also tried the Chai concentrate which is just okay -- not something I'd buy again. I expected something creamier, more flavorful, less watery, but I suppose that's something that you can add more of in your beverage if you're inclined. As it is, the amount they recommend to add is not satisfying enough. Glad that at least the products are more readily available in Singapore and Hong Kong where I found them. On another hand, it's my friend's favorite oat milk.
Minor Figures is a standout in the world of plant-based beverages. Their oat milk is velvety smooth, perfectly creamy, and blends seamlessly into coffee, enhancing it without overpowering. The commitment to quality and sustainability shines through, making it a go-to for baristas and casual coffee lovers alike. Plus, the quirky branding adds a fun, modern touch. It’s a product that feels good to buy and even better to enjoy.
It's the packaging for me! I've tried their ready to drink chai and it was really flavorful. I don't think their oat milk, for example, is worth the pricing but I think their RTD products are great.

A cold brew would be awesome!

Barista oat isn't as frothy as I would like
If you know me, you know that I'm a fan of the underdogs! Minor Figures decided to enter a crowded place of plant based milk, and I think they've succeeded because I'm a fan. The milk froths as equally well as whole milk and has even better ingredients than Oatly although the pricing can tread above waters depending on the oz and flavor. I love that they have their own canned bevvys like chai, oat, and matcha lattes which can be found at your Erewhon's or cafes.
Their coffee in a can is amazing. And their long life oat milk, also really good. It's my go-to oat milk.
Love the oat milk and canned coffees. I’ve worked several years in coffee and this product is worth the hype.

My roommate buys their oat milk in bulk. I don't particularly like oat milk, but a splash of this in coffee sometimes hits a scratch I didn't know needed itching
I tried their Chai and it left a lot to be desired - tasted watered down and not what I wish from a morning chai. Their packaging is super cute though and the ingredients are not super complicated.
Quite simply, Minor Figures oat milk will make your coffee experience better- especially if you're partial to a flat white. Stay clear of the light version, though. Having discovered this whilst in London, I was very sad to bid it adieu upon leaving, but what do you know, you can find it at the local grocery stores here in Australia as well!

Not as readily available as other milk alternatives.
One of my favorite oat milks. Tastes great in matcha, isn't loaded with fillers, and they have fun branding, too. I'd like to try some of their canned matcha & chai drinks.

I wish the oat milk came in a larger container.
I've only tried the oat milk, but I really enjoyed it. It's sweet and creamy, and could be used in coffee as well as in cooking as a dairy replacement.

I wish it was slightly thicker.

First of all I love their branding. So distinctive and artistic, the illustrations on the carton are minimalist yet hip. Love that there's a light option of their barista oat milk for days when I want my iced coffee to be a bit lighter.

This stuff was pretty bad in my opinion. Like no real body and fat from cheap oil. I tried to make it in a drink but it made the drink worse. I get that they are trying to be edgy but the packaging is weird too
It is a treat to grab this oat milk on occasion when it's on sale. I think the branding is cute and the oat milk has a great flavor and consistency. It's not consistently in my rotation but I've had good experiences whenever I try it.

The barista oat milk is great to add to any coffee drink.
Smooth taste - would recommend!
really didn't like the oat milk when i tried frothing it for coffee by myself (too watery/slight bitter flavor), but i haven't had any issues with it when coffee shops have their oat milk as their oat milk of choice. maybe the barista oat tastes different and has a different consistency?

I am typically not an oat milk fan, but I do like the taste of this one! I have used it with cold brew made at home or in lattes. I also have tried their single serve lattes and matcha drinks and I have enjoyed those as well for a quick on the go caffeine boost w/ a milk alternative.
Only tried their oat milk. Haven’t tried any of their other products. Enjoyed the scandal though wheatpasting their ad on artwork in Philly and then pull the ‘do better’ act. Hire Dahsar for wheatpasting opportunities.
