Milk

Hands down the best ice cream please EVER! I had the fruity pebbles ice cream sandwich and omg it’s to die for. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water! Every time I’m in LA I’ll make a stop here. Please open up a place in Orange County!

Best ice cream macaron sandwich!
Good food, better service.

there’s practically no parking lot
I ordered the grasshopper when I came and it was average; it was around $ 5
I wouldn’t say that it was bland… but it kind of was
I could taste some of the mint flavor, but I’m thinking that the freezer that it’s kept in took the flavor away
maybe I’ll come back and try it gain, but as of right now, it ain’t worth the hype

Saw this on a food website as the best ice cream in So-​Cal… accurate? sure, if you’re down to pay for the excellence.
Their ice cream is good but not that different from other ice cream places. Definitely make a trip here for their Macaron Ice Cream Sandwiches! The macaron cookie shell is perfectly crispy on the outside yet decadently chewy on the inside and perfectly complimented by their ice cream on the THICK inner layer. They also coat the sandwiches with delicious toppings! My favorite is the Grasshopper (mint chocolate chip ice cream between 2 macaron cookie shells dipped in dark chocolate) YASS. The sweetness of the ice cream is beautifully complimented by the subtley sweet, bitterness of the dark chocolate on the outside. They also have other awesome, outrageous flavors like Thai Tea, Fruity Pebbles, etc!
Aside from their frozen desserts, they also have really cute looking pastries. I will definitely come back to try the blue velvet cake!
Parking is limited and mostly along the street as they are located on the corner of a busy intersection!

Macaron ice cream sandwich is my new favorite kind of dessert. Milk had anything from a red velvet cake to icecream to cookies. A place that people who have sweet tooth should stop by when you are in LA.
My favorite flavor is Thai Tea! It’s not horribly sweet, tea flavor is strong, it’s like eating a full cup of Thai tea. Just all around amazing!

I love walking here from my sister’s apartment who lives right by the grove. The line is usually crazy and there isn’t much space to sit which is the downside but their ice cream is really great.
The fruity pebbles flavored macaron ice cream sandwich with fruity pebbles ice cream and their coffee ice cream with toffee espresso chip and their thai tea ice cream is the best. They also have great dessert options like red velvet cupcakes and cookies and brownies.

Ice cream macaron is the only option why you would come here (: Why? You know why. Its soooo good! Been coming here for already 4 times, that’s a lot especially for a person who lives far.
California strawberry and the fruity pebble ones are the «must get» items. Macaron cookies are chewy which is amazing! Macaron is indeed hrs to make, I tried it myself and I still fail :/​
The ice cream is a perfect add ons to these chewy cookies.
There is always a line, so try to come in this place when it’s not busy. Pricy items, but totally worth it!

This ⁵⁄₅ rating is for the blue velvet cake.
Honestly, the blue velvet cake here is one of my absolute favorites! It is creamy, moist, and decadent. Your taste buds will dance once you eat this cake!

Wow. This place is great. I went in the late afternoon and it wasn’t too busy. There was no line or anything.
It was my first time there so I alarms for a recommendation. The cashier recommended the red velvet ice cream sandwich.
So I got the red velvety ice cream sandwich which was 6 $ it was a little small. I thought it was expensive, but after I ate I just understood why. It was 100% worth.
The macaroon she’ll was perfect a little crispy on the outside and chewy and delicious on the inside. The ice cream was fantastic. It wasn’t overly sweet, it was perfectly balanced.
Parking it atrocious. It’s impossible to find. Good luck
I will definitely be coming back and trying other stuff on the menu. I highly recommend this place.

Beware. Last time the bf and I went we found pieces of black rubber/​plastic in his shake. They blended in with the choco chips in his drink and we only discovered pieces after we took a sip and were chewing on them!
Staff did make a new one for free (sans pieces). I hate to write this bc I really enjoy what Milk does and their products and I hope this was a one time fluke accident.

MACARON ICE CREAM SANDWICHES. So much better than the ones you get from the restaurants. They are just so good. I really like the coffee toffee flavor. They have other ones, another favorite is red velvet. Be prepared to wait on a line, it’s not unbearable, it’s definitely worth the wait.
They have pastries as well. Their blue velvet cake is pretty good.
Parking: they have street parking, meter parking. Be aware of the parking signs. Parking enforcement is pretty strict in these areas from what I remember. They also have a lot available down the street, do not park behind the place, you will be towed.
Ambiance: casual dessert spot.
Seating: indoor and outdoor seating available. Self seating.

The macaroon sandwiches are worth the hype!
Definitely a good stop if your going on a food adventure. Located right next to the grove, it’s a cute little location with many different treats to choose from depending on whatever your craving that day might be!
I got the fruit loop ice cream macaron and it was the most flavorful desert I had my whole trip in LA, the ice cream itself had so much flavor that it was mind blowing.
Next time I need to try the blue velvet cake and the black cherry float for myself, but overall an amazing experience!
¹⁰⁄₁₀ would drive to LA for again.

I have to admit, I don’t come here as often as I did before because parking and their lines are horrendous but when I see those two align, I for sure stop by and take a moment from art supply shopping from across the street.
This time I kept it simple and got a strawberry macaron ice cream sandwich, half dipped in white chocolate. No frills, no hoops. Just plain delicious strawberry ice cream treat with nothing competing or being overbearing.
I do have to make a note that I am sad that they got rid of their lunch and dinner menu. I am going to miss their half roasted chicken with asparagus and bacon mashed potatoes, orriciette pasta, their cubano and their ceasar salad. =(
Still five stars for what they do specialize in.

Came here upon friend recommendation on a trip to L.A. with a group of friends. The place is pretty small and there was a line, but the staff was super fast and friendly which was awesome. We even found a place to sit.
My friend got a Sundae, it was pretty big and the icecream was really good. All loaded with fudge and bananas which was awesome.
I got the coffee toffee macaron ice cream sandwich and my friends got the one with coco pebbles and the birthday cake one. They were all honestly DELICIOUS. So much ice cream inside. Definitely a go-​to place.

Tasty Treats Tasty Treats!
This place has been one of our go to spots for years now. Great macaroons and also I love the toffee coffee milkshake! It stinks that it is like $ 7.50 for a milkshake now though which is why we don’t go so often now…
Good stuff but the prices have gotten high which is why I didn’t give 5 stars…
Not sure about the cereal flavored macaroons last time either… I miss the normal flavors…

I’m always searching for things that are simple and amazing. Like pizza with only cheese and sauce. Well when it comes to desserts I love vanilla milkshakes. The cashier was not in a great mood which was the first ding… I came in at 4pm they weren’t busy and I actually tipped to see if that would add a smile to the person when they served me my $ 9 vanilla milkshake… Nope… She still looked like she had an awful day.
The shake itself. Nothing amazing… For all the hype around this place I thought their ice cream would be unreal, nope… Just average. I’ve had great homemade ice cream so my standard is McConnell ice cream in downtown. That’s where my bar is set!
Inside it’s nice so they get points for that, plenty of seating inside and out.
Overall 3 stars and I don’t think I would come back. I like service with a smile it goes a long way. Especially when you pay $ 9 for a milkshake.

Before visiting LA, I always heard about this place. There was so much hype over it and it was all over social media so I decided to check it out. My mom and I went there around 9:15pm before it closed. The place was very small and didn’t have much to it. We went right inside with no line and quickly ordered. I got the fruity pebbles macaroon sandwich and she got the ooey gooey ice cream sundae. Her sundae was very good, it had coconut shavings on top, which really pulled all the flavors together and a warm cookie on the bottom.
I ordered a macaroon sandwich because I love macaroons and also most of the hype was centered around these little delicacies. It was good, don’t get me wrong, but it was very sweet. I didn’t really know what to expect, but I figured the hype around it would be well worth it. If you’re a fruity pebbles lover it tastes exactly like the cereal. So if that’s what you’re looking for then look no further!

Can I say worst customer service ever? I love MILK but the guy server was super rude and barely acknowledged my family and everyone else. People go to these places to be greeted with a friendly smile, positive attitude not rude customer service. When I asked for water cup he pointed to the water station and continued to talk to the other employee. LIKE NO SHIT I see the water where is the cups? I found them behind the fountain, yeah maybe I don’t have the best eyes but don’t need to be rude.
The place is great but customer service sucks!

A scoop of foodie heaven! The Milk Shop was the perfect dessert to end a perfect day adventuring throughout LA! Made it within 10 minutes of closing and witnessed an angry patron that didn’t make the line cut off– by like 5 minutes. And now I get it, I understand completely why she had a temper tantrum/​total meltdown on the corner of Beverly and Poinsettia! I might have done the same! The staff was super friendly, extremely patient, and offered great suggestions! I had a snickerdoodle cookie ice cream sandwich and when I tasted it, the heavens parted! The Milk Shop is the
! Can’t wait to come back!

Excellent ice cream and homemade cookies. They have very unique flavors plus other tasty pastries. Only downside is there is usually a line.

For you macaron ice cream lovers, this is the place to go! They have a variety of different flavors some of my favorites at the Salted Caramel, which they haven’t had the past few times I’ve gone! The cookies and cream and red velvet. They all are so yummy that you have to order at least 2 or three of them.
We also get a milk shake that is called the Coffee toffee shake.
We live in Arizona, but when we are in LA we go out of way just to get some ice cream macarons.
It gets really busy on the weekends, but if you come during the week it isn’t busy at all.

#60 Before going down to LA, I looked through my bookmarks to see which places I wanted to visit during my stay. I couldn’t remember why I bookmarked this place, but I decided to try it, anyway, since it was nearby.
Luckily, I arrived when there was no line. Only place to park is near the houses, so parking can be a pain. The shop isn’t as big as I thought it would be and there isn’t much of a selection among the baked goods. I didn’t see anything I was DYING to try, but I had to buy something since I was already there.
+ Blue velvet cake — Had to try this since it was BLUE. It was pretty good! The cake was dense and not overly sweet. Plus there were actual blueberries inside, which sounds weird but it actually works well together.
+ Strawberry shortcake bar — Strawberry ice cream dipped in white chocolate and topped with sugar cookie bits. I liked it, but I wanted more cookie bits.
+ MILK thai tea — It’s like a thai tea milkshake because they use thai tea ice cream.
+ Iced coffee — They give it to you black w/​ice. I had to dump some out to put cream and I had to ask for simple syrup since they only had sugar.
Overall, kind of disappointed. Nothing really excited my taste buds. Probably won’t be returning.

Every time that I come to LA, visiting Milk is a must for one sole reason: their Blue Velvet Cake.
I called 45 minutes before they closed to see if they still had anymore slices of the cake left & they did! You would think that at this time, they would be dead ready to close up. No, you & I both were wrong… There was a line out the door! Nonetheless, worth it!
Their pastries are delicious & their ice creams are delicious! They also serve food.
Blue Velvet Cake — Phenomenal! The cake is moist with a hint of blueberries. The cream cheese frosting is the best I have tasted! So smooth with blueberries pieces throughout. It is topped off with a chocolate covered blueberry on top. Seriously, this cake is so awesome that I have considered making this cake my wedding cake. Haha…
Ice Cream Macaroon Sandwich = Red Velvet — Ice cream is subtle, perfect to balance out the very sweet macaroons. This one is good but their other flavors, like the Grasshopper, is better.

I missed an opportunity to have macaron ice cream sandwiches on my trip to Las Vegas last year, so when my LA research turned up Milk, I just had to come here!
We found their ice cream sandwiches pre-​made in the side freezer for $ 6 each. The macarons were rather large and the ice cream rather thick — I was so glad we were going to be sharing it. Fortunately we agreed upon a flavor rather readily (coffee toffee!), and enjoyed our bounty at one of a number of tables.
I guess Milk could be considered green as they used real plates and utensils here.
Service with a smile!

The first time I went to Milk was about 3 – 4 years ago and I didn’t think it was that great. I recently decided to stop by again and give it another try. To my surprise, it’s changed a lot since the last time I have been.
I tried the fruity pebble macaron sandwich and the blue velvet cake. The fruity pebble macaron was delicious! There was a lot of fruity pebble toppings on it and it wasn’t too frozen/​too hard like the first time I went.
The blue velvet cake was super moist and had the perfect texture. It was really, really good. I am such a cake fanatic and I think it was the perfect amount of sweetness with a hint of blueberry flavor.
I would definitely buy a cake here. I’m a fan again!

First things first, they have their own parking lot a block over. Utilize it. I got lucky with street parking adjacent to the lot, but there were still spots open. Look for their designated signs.
Expect to wait. The line spilled over onto the sidewalk and they insist on keeping the doors closed (understandable).
You’ve got to have a serious sweet tooth to go here. To avoid any more time waiting, I ordered a pre-​made Red Velvet Macaron sandwich. It was a good palm-​sized ice cream sandwich, but wow, was it super sweet. It made me wish I’d brought someone along to share it and chat with me in line. Despite this being my first try at Milk, I see why it’s dessert heaven for many people. It’s all about the novelty of macarons, which is what brought me here in the first place. There are lots of other goodies and treats on the menu, I just haven’t tried them yet.

3.25 Stars
7:30p Pacific Time. We pull up to Milk, situated as a corner store and the line is literally wrapped around the corner and down the street. My anticipation was at an all time high. I’d heard of their homemade ice cream bars and wildly popular ice cream macarons. Milk also hosts decadent cakes, cookies, brownies and ice cream, of course.
I wanted to try everything, as any good Unilocaler would. So I had the strawberry shortcake bar (bars and macarons are pre-​wrapped and housed in a freezer located on the side of the main showcase, this provides easy access to items that do not need wrapping/​boxing/​filled), the blue velvet cake, and a black and white macaron.
The strawberry shortcake should have been called fading vanilla because it had no flavor. It was wrapped in white chocolate and sprinkled with cake crumbs, but it was hard and I couldn’t taste the cake. I was not impressed. I imagined it to be rolled in soft cake crumbs and actually taste like something… strawberry maybe… not something I would have to chomp into. This was a complete disappointment.
The macaron was was slightly better as I was able to taste the chocolate and the cookie was actually pretty good. The blue velvet, essentially blueberry-​ish cake, was rich and delicious. This was Milk’s saving grace. Thick sliced and iced with a cream cheese frosting, it took me three tries to finish it. This is not something you eat alone. I can imagine it has somewhere around 5000 calories :/​but is SOOOOOO GOOD.
Next time, I’ll probably stick to the cakes and ice cream, sans strawberry.
Notes:
–Go early
–Try the ice cream before you make a purchase
–keep the door closed!

I came here again with a Unilocal crew after dinner at Osteria Mozza for something sweet. The line was out the door and sprinkling outside. Inside was busy and tables full.
Glad I gave this place another chance. Best thing about a busy bakery is the good are fresh out of the oven. Unlike the first time, the goods weren’t.
The ooey gooey cookie out of the oven left melted chocolate chunks on my face. So good fresh out of the oven. The red velvet cookie was pretty good too. Peanut butter chocolate brownie had a Butterfinger crust on top. A bit sweet but good. Also took a tres leches to go. Pretty good even after a few days.
Definitely go when there’s a line out the door!

What keeps me coming back you ask?
Besides their infamous macarons ice cream filled with thai tea, cookies and cream, vanilla, strawberry, taro, etc. fresh gelato ice cream, yummy coffee, teas and drinks, fresh baked cakes, cupcakes and desserts. it is their strawberry shortcake ice cream bar.
Sometimes when I come, I’m lucky and there are still some more in the little freezer by the counter where all the yummy daily goodies are refrigerated and I treat myself to one of these yummy ice cream bar.
Very reminiscent of the Blue Bonnet Bunny Strawberry Shortcake ice cream we’ve all probably had, this one has a thicker shortcake crust which just breaks off in chucks and exposing the delicious strawberry ice cream underneath (and I’m not even a fan of strawberry ice cream!!); but for this ice cream bar, i’m going to eat my (short)cake and ice cream too!

I’ve been wanting to come to Milk for ages now. I had the great opportunity of stumbling upon this location while on vacation. It did not disappoint! My hubs and I both got the macaron ice cream sandwiches. Neither of our first choice flavors were available (blueberry and banana/​dulce de leche), so we settled on the fruity pebble and red velvet. Definitely delicious and indulgent. We will likely pass by again before we leave LA!

Been seeing so much hype about this place, I was in the area, so decided to give it a shot. It did not disappoint.
— Grasshopper & Strawberry ice cream macaron — both was very delicious, very great texture and visually beautiful!
— Blue velvet cake — crazy idea, excellent execution, it was delicious!
I would come back if I’m ever on this side of town!

I’ll admit, Milk was one of the sole reasons why I wanted to visit LA. Only having seen the insta-​famous macaron ice cream sandwiches on Instagram, I was surprised when we drove up to Milk and saw how small the store actually is. Fear not because there are plenty of macaron ice cream sandwich flavors to choose from! After moments of huge contemplation, I went with the Thai Tea macaron ice cream sandwich. I was shocked that all of the ice cream sandwiches are all pre-​made and just sitting in the freezer, but this didn’t affect the flavor. Just give it a moment to defrost a bit, but if you’re impatient like me, just bite right in. The brain freeze is so worth it.
Milk, can you come to NY please?

I’ve been a customer of Milk for years and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. Whenever I go, I always get a macaroon ice cream sandwich or I build my own ice cream sandwich. Just depends on my mood that day!
This time, I had the cookies n cream ice cream sandwiched between a walnut chocolate chip cookie and a snickerdoodle. Delicioussssss. It’s too bad you can’t really do half/​half of an ice cream flavor but the scoop that they give you is pretty big so no complaints about the portion size. After all, we are paying $ 6 for 2 cookies and a scoop of ice cream.
I’ve had the macaroon ice cream sandwiches before and my one suggestion is that you gotta let it sit for a little bit after they take it out of the fridge. Otherwise, you’ll be biting into a rock hard macaroon.
Parking can be a little difficult and I always manage to find street parking when I go. There’s a sign in front of the store indicating a lot nearby where customers can park. Not exactly sure where it is though. The parking situation and the price could improve.

$ 6 for the ice cream macaron sandwiches. Pretty pricey but pretty great too. My favorite ice cream place in LA.
Last time I went I got the chocolate covered strawberry. It was good, perhaps a little too sweet for some. I really liked that the chocolate part was thin and wasn’t overly strong. Otherwise what more can you ask for when you have ice cream and macaron and deliciousness and happiness on a hot day.
These sandwiches can easily be split between two.
Only downside id say is there wasn’t many choices when I visited last time, only what I ordered and Thai.
The ice cream by itself is delicious too.

Came here to get on board with the blue velvet cake hype!
The cake itself was considerably moist and each bite had adequate blueberry flavor. I wasn’t feeling the cloyingly sweet frosting though. I had to scrape most of the sugar frosting off because I couldn’t handle the sweetness. It was cool how the inner layers of frosting had bits of real blueberries.
No doubt interesting, but the blue velvet cake didn’t keep me hankering for more.
I also got to try their red velvet cookies and mini red velvet cupcakes… nothing spectacular and the red velvet flavor was lacking. I’ll reserve my sweet tooth for another place next time.

An LA must do! Worth the hype? Ahhhh. Well yes and no. I would say everyone should at one point try the macaron ice cream sandwiches, absolutely! Personally, I think getter a little too sweet. It’s definitely a lot of ice cream! Gets hard to eat without a spoon and napkins handy. For $ 6 I think it’s pretty worth it. But maybe just once if you’re not a sweets fanatic, like I am.
Be very careful with parking. Read the street signs carefully and head their earnings. LA takes their ticket giving seriously! Don’t want to pay $ 60+ to eat a $ 6 dessert!

4.5 stars! If you go here, you MUST try the macaron ice cream sandwiches! I got the grasshopper (mint chip ice cream) which was amazing. I ate the whole thing. Also, I have to eat gluten free (Celiac) and this particular sandwich was safe. Some are obviously not gluten free because they have cereal on them etc. You could also just get plain ice cream too which is gf. My husband got a peanut butter ice cream shake which he thought was just ok — why I knocked down a half star. While I think he should’ve definitely chosen something else on the menu (hello…sandwiches), but if a place is good everything should be good! All the baked goods looked delicious as well but couldn’t sample them. The place was crowded but the line went fast. Cute place!

I absolutely love this place. We came on a weekday so there was no line. I love that they make their own ice cream and all their flavors I’ve tried are exactly what you’d imagine. The Thai tea ice cream sandwich is one of their best sellers. Unfortunately, when I ordered one they were sold out. After checking the back to see if there were more, the girl apologized and offered to make me a Thai tea ice cream sandwich with the cookies of my choice. I opted to just get a blueberry pie ice cream sandwich and I’m so glad I did! It tasted just like a blueberry pie, crust and all. The strawberry shortcake milkshake was really good as well.
The only thing I don’t like it the price ($ 6 for an ice cream sandwich?!) but I only come here on a rare occasion.

Yum Yum Yum! I wish there was one closer to me. I love their ice cream macrons here. Every flavor is good, isn’t too sweet. Just be ready for a line when you are here but it’s worth the wait in my opinion. It’s a little hard to find parking but circle around a few times and I’m sure you will be able to find parking.
I wouldn’t suggest coming by yourself at night cause it can get a little sketchy but during the day isn’t so bad.
The homemade cookies are pretty good and you can make your own ice cream sandwiches here too.
I can eat one a day if this was closer to me!

Definitely had to make a stop to MILK when in LA and boy is this is where sweet dreams come true. Of course I had to get the macaroon ice cream everyone was raving about and it lived up to the hype. I enjoyed every bit and it was amazing. It was unfortunate that I came in a full stomach so on that note, really do make sure you leave room for some desserts.
My friend and I split 3 ice cream with each other: Fruity Pebbles, Thai Tea & Grasshopper.
Fruity pebbles legit taste like a fruity pebble. What I liked the most was how crunchy the fruity pebble cereals still were because it just got made. Amazing!
Everyone says the Thai Tea was the best so we Forreal had to get that no matter what and it really loved up to the hype. Never had a Thai tea ice cream taste so amazingggg!
Then lastly the grasshopper was like mint chocolate chip and one side of it was covered with chocolate which was a great idea. And I love mint chocolate chip ice cream so of course this was my favorite.
Can’t wait to visit LA again and eat at milk!

So this is what a great ice cream shop is like!
I was referred to this spot by a friend, whom hailed it to have mythical macaroon ice cream sandwhiches. I was beyond impressed by the quality of the treats! :)
They have a delicious variety of macaroon sandwhiches, ranging from a grasshopper flavor (mint and chocolate) to a fruitty pebbles strawberry vanilla combination. There were many more flavor selections, roughly a total of 10.
Now if Macaroons aren’t your thing, no worries! You can make a custom ice cream cookie sandwhich! Thats right, custom ice cream cookie samdwhich… they will pimp your treat with some tasty creamy sensations. You have many flavors to chose from, and they will allow you to sample any of them. Much of the textures on the ice cream reminded me of a nice soft gelato, rather then the thicker standard rite aid ice cream. My personal favorite was the banana dulce, holy moly was it tasty!
Prices will vary on the treats, but you will be looking at roughly 6 bucks and change. But all fair for the quality you get.
A final word of warning, be sure to be prepared for a line because there is always a demand for these bad boys!
Oh and P. S. they offer brownies and other treats in addition to cookies, and a full coffee bar. Also, you can buy pints of the ice cream to take home! :)
So stop reading, and get yourself to Milk!
P. S.S. Follow my donut blog on instagram! @thedukeofdonuts

Even on a cold winter night, they had a line outside. I love me some Asian-​inspired ice cream flavors. A lot of people love this place. The few tables they inside and outside the shop were all occupied. But why?
They have sundaes, ice cream sandwiches, floats, coffee, tea, shakes, baked treats anywhere from $ 3 – 7. I picked stuff I know I would like — my safe choices.
Thai Tea Ice Cream Sandwich:
Orange-​colored macaron shells and a generous thickness of Thai tea ice cream in the middle. I love anything Thai tea so, I was bound to like this. However, it might have been in the freezer too long or lots of water was used in making their ice cream — mine had signs of freezer burn. Sad. ³⁄₅
Iced Jasmine Tea:
One of my other favorites is Jasmine tea. Floral and aromatic. Simple but good. 3.5÷5
Milk isn’t horrible. I just think their products could be improved and not be so crunchy from ice bits.

I was excited to try Milk after seeing an array of photos on social media. It seems like there is always a line out the door, even when it’s cold in LA (aka 70 degrees). Parking is nonexistent, so be prepared to circle for metered parking.
They have a nice selection of pre-​made ice cream sandwiches to choose from ($ 6 each). The sandwich is made from two macaroons. Flavors I’ve tried are the red velvet, grasshopper (mint), and fruity pebbles. Not quite sure they are worth the hype. The macaroon is so frozen that it’s almost impossible to eat. Nearly cracked a tooth trying to bite into it. I think the trick is to let it sit for 10 minutes so it can soften up. While you’re waiting, you can snap a few photos for your Instagram.
All in all, I think this place is a little overpriced for the taste. Not sure I would pay $ 6 for their macaroon sandwiches again, but may try some of their other ice cream options on the menu.

We followed our Unilocal reviewers to this place in LA.
My red velvet cupcake was a little stale from sitting out… However it was still delicious!
The iced chai looked like milk so I wasn’t sure what the taste would be but I was pleasantly surprised!!! I was delicious.
My «date» had the sundae– which he was told was a winner! And it had a warm brownie at the bottom! Good choice!

Oh my heaven!!! I get why this is one of the top rated ice cream shops in LA, if not THE top rated. It was such a hard decision, but I ordered a peanut butter milks shake and it was pure bliss. I sucked that thing down in less time than I’m willing to admit.
What I REALLY wanted to try, and would have if the place we were staying had a freezer, were the ice cream sandwiches. They had a fruit loop ice cream sandwich! Apparently the flavours change daily, so if I lived nearby I’d for sure weigh 300lbs +. Good thing I’m a few thousand miles away.

1, 2, 3, 4… I DECLARE AN… ICE CREAM CRAWL!!!
Day 1, Stop 3
BACKSTORY: (Repeated on all ice cream crawl reviews. If you’ve read it once, no need to read it 20+ times :-p)
Thanks to social media and their ways to entice peeps, like me, to get out and about town, I recently succumbed to their power of suggestion and checked out ice cream parlors in the LA area. The goal? The goal was not to find the best ice cream parlor, nor the worst, and to see what was out there, instead the goal was to have a frame of reference when peeps or fellow Unilocalers ask, suggest, or check into places.
And so it continues…
PARKING:
Metered street parking. Read posted signs for restrictions.
INTERIOR:
Upon arrival, fellow helper and I took a spot in line that extended out the single swinging door. It was a very warm SoCal day, ice cream goers held the doorway open for those leaving, as well as seeking cool air from the air conditioned parlor, for themselves. Staff members kept shouting from behind the counter, «KEEP THE DOOR CLOSED». The inside was filled with little tables and many chairs where young patrons were milling around; on their laptops, cell phones, and partaking in friendly chit chat.
CUSTOMER SERVICE:
Several peeps scoopin’ heeps of frozen cream into cups and cones, while others were ringin’ up and sending customers on their way. In line so long, fellow Unilocaler and I had plenty of time to review the list of ice cream choices on the board above the prep area and decide. Btw, Milk offers much more than just scoops, they offer shakes, malts, and floats, cookies, cakes, and sorbets.
ORDERED:
The remains of my wee one year, ordering a scoop of pistachio took me back to the day’s daddy brought home 10 lbs. bags of pistachios in the shell. Sitting playing cards, board games, or working on homework together, while snappin’ dem shells apart and poppin’ dem green nuts into our mouths, I couldn’t see not ordering pistachio. I was pleasantly surprised at how subtle the flavor was, and it didn’t taste medicinal, which led me to believe they used real pistachios. Fellow Unilocaler ordered a banana dulce de lache and said it was smooth and creamy, not frothy and watery.
IN A SCOOP:
Street parking wasn’t too bad for a Saturday afternoon. Although the line was long when we arrived, from door to order took about 15 minutes. With ice cream in hand, we found a table for two and had a pleasant conversation while indulging in our ice cream. TMI – This was my third stop, I had been drinking a lot of water, and this was the first parlor that offered a «room» to make a straight return. Wouldn’t ya know it, the restroom was closed for cleaning. With the restroom in my line-​of-​sight, I waited until it was open for use. Although there was plenty of t-​paper, there were no seat covers, and the mop used to clean the floor was in need of being replaced. The restroom had that dirty mop smell, you know the one… ick. Experience was better than average. If I’m ever in the area, I’ll stop by for another scoop or two.
#LAICECREAMCRAWL

My friends and I came here on a Sunday night on a relatively chilly night I’d say for LA and there was still a line outside the door. This place is obviously very popular. We came with a mission to try the macaroon ice creams and succeeded by getting two to share between three girls. Their Macaroon ice cream sandwiches are huge.
We got the thai tea and coffee toffee. Both had good and bad elements to it for me. The good: the macaroon texture was great. It had a great chew to it which I thoroughly enjoyed. And again, the portions are big so that is always a plus. The thai tea tasted exactly like thai tea, nothing artificial about it. The coffee toffee had big chunks of chocolate toffee in it. As for the negatives: the thai tea, although very authentic in taste, was also way too sweet. I think the overly sugary taste came from the macaroon and not the ice cream itself. I couldn’t eat too much of it without getting a sugarache. As for the coffee toffee, although the macaroon was made and tasted perfectly well, I felt that the coffee taste from the ice cream could have been stronger. It was a bit blander from what I expected.
Overall, although definitely worth a try, I will have to give it three stars based on what I ate. However, I wouldn’t mind going back and trying their cookie ice cream sandwiches. Their cookies looked amazing from what I could see.

Having been to both this location and the Silver Lake one, I will say parking was way easier at this one (can you tell, I DON’T like battling it out for a spot). Lucky me, there was one right across and we put about 12 minutes worth of coins in.
I am not the biggest fan of the macaron ice cream sandwich because it’s very very sweet. Having tried that and the ice cream bar, I prefer the bar over the sandwich. So after our shopping day at The Grove, we drove by and decided to get some since we were here.
I wanted the vanilla bean bar but was told they only had it in the sandwich form so next best? I got the cookies and cream bar instead. Simply delicious! I can’t say it’s worth a drive just to get Milk but if you’re in the area, it’s definitely worth a trip! Lines are here and there. Sometimes you miss the line and sometimes you don’t. Seating inside out and outside. Parking is street.

Arrivé samedi soir car on était pas trop loin et on cherchait un petit dessert à manger, on a pu constater la bonne dizaine de personnes présentent devant l’établissement ! Après une bonne dizaine de minutes dehors (note: il né fait pas très chaud à LA le soir en avril), nous avons pu choisir parmi environ 5 goûts de «Ice Cream Sandwich». J’ai personnellement eu la chance de goûter le «Blueberry Crumble» et j’étais ravis ! Un mélange de saveurs très intéressant. Le macaron par contre n’est pas un vrai macaron mais une adaptation qui supporte probablement mieux la congélation. Seul défaut, le dessert était fort sucré dans son ensemble.
