Jonathan LSeptember 4, 2017The cereal milk soft serve usually has a second seasonal flavor in circulation, so see what it is and swirl it with the original for a sweet treat. Don't forget the cereal milk affogato either!
Yes, get the crack pie, and the compost cookies, and the bday cake truffles, and the cereal milk soft serve... you probably waited 2 hours in line, so you deserve it.
Ghada AlhayazaJuly 29, 2018Loved it! Cereal milk soft serve is delicious, too salty tho so add the chocolate fudge on top to add a little sweetness to it. Birthday cake truffles are way too sweet for my taste buds.
Behrad EatsJanuary 20, 2016Need a cure for a case of the Mondays? Grab a latte with the addictive Bagel Bomb and Egg & Cheddar Bomb!
Richard RevillaJanuary 30, 2016All your NYC favorites here. Cereal Milk ice cream is the best in earth. Enjoy the Milk Bar DC.
Matthew ShannonNovember 28, 2015Cool spot. Go for the soft serve items or cookies over the shakes. With the mix, they come out tasting overly salty. Also, make sure you are in the right line if you want Milk Bar over Momofuku.
E 馃June 23, 2016Birthday Cake balls good but not great as for the Cereal Milk Soft it looks cute but the taste not like what I imagine. Overall if you have a sweet tooth this is a good place for you to have a snack
Melissa ChaiDecember 28, 2015Get the birthday cake truffles if you want a ball of happiness 鈽�锔忦煂�/div>
Laura LaussadeJune 17, 2018Always wanted to try this place. The crack pie and cereal milk soft serve live up to its hype.
Nicole StahleckerNovember 19, 2015The food was amazing - spicy cucumbers were my favorite. The Brussels sprouts also good. The service wasn't great, a little snobby.
Ashley RoseMay 2, 2016The line is long but sometimes you just need a cereal milk shake. $12 for the cookie combo: bread, cookie, and drink is a tasty option for lunch.
HarrisonNovember 8, 2015The Thanksgiving croissant is super tasty. And you can get cereal milk with the meal deal!
Obsessed with the cereal milk ice cream and the crack pie
The lines are long but the cereal milk ice cream is something to try at least once.
Tha铆s SoaresFebruary 14, 2019The cereal milk ice cream is amazingggggg (and better than the crack pie, in my opinion).
Justin GrimesJanuary 31, 2016Get the excellent yuzu parfait - yogurt parfait w/ yuzu jam and Thai tea granola
Alex CalicMarch 5, 2016Cereal milk with cereal crunch tastes exactly like the bottom of your cereal bowl. #yum
Courtnee DavisDecember 23, 2015Go for the birthday truffles! The perfect amount of sweet in one bite.
ChrisNovember 1, 2015If you don't mind waiting in line for 50 minutes for soft-serve style ice cream that vaguely tastes like soggy breakfast cereal, this is the trendy-trendy place for you to be seen at.
It's not called crack pie for nothing. Worth the insane two-hour opening day wait.
Melissa MonsalveFebruary 10, 2016So glad Momofuku is now in DC but the milk bar location is extremely small.
Allison AbbottFebruary 21, 2016Cereal milk ice cream is a little salty - not bad, but not my style. Likely not going to revisit.

"Great ambiance, good service and tasty food. However it does not worth the price. Tried the zucchini ravioli. It was normal. The mushroom croquet was delicious! Highly recommend it!"
