Momofuku Milk Bar has seen better days. I’ve had it in Toronto and also my previous visit to New York at their East Village location. Since it was our first night in New York on this particular trip, I wanted to show my friends how delicious it was by ordering the cereal milk soft serve and the crack pie.
Since the Financial District does die down, the area was deserted, but Momofuku Milk Bar was still open. This particular location has a take out window.
Cereal Milk Soft Serve
This was a good portion to share with my friends, but it tasted really bad. It was reminiscent of the milk at the bottom of your cereal bowl. It was more tart and creamy like yogurt. Not sure what happened there. We’ve had this before, but this time it really tasted very different.
Crack Pie
The crack pie was the redeeming factor. It does look a bit different due to the while stuff on top. Back in 2012, they didn’t have that but they must have tweaked the recipe. It has a toasted oat crust and a delicious centre made of butter, sugar, brown sugar and cream.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the quality has definitely gone downhill. I don’t know if it was just this location or if its across the board, but I really didn’t like it enough to return.

You realize that the cereal milk ice cream is supposed to taste that way right?
Maybe being from Vancouver you don’t understand this kind of American style comfort food (which was probably most popular in the north east)? I grew up on the east coast and now live in vancouver and tasting this reminds me of my childhood.
Writing such a negative review with hardly any information and without doing any research is extremely irresponsible. Also just because you don’t personally like the taste of one of their dishes doesn’t mean they get 1 star. Such lazy and destructive writing.
yumyum is absolutely right.
Yeah it’s like the time I ordered Vanilla Ice Cream and it tasted like vanilla!!! Whats that about?? So I guess he really nailed the flavor then, I call that a win. You liked 1 out of the 2 things you tried? That’s like 50 percent, don’t know how you got 1 out of 5 for a rating. You need your internet privileges taken away.
