Milkbread
1431 Central Ave, Charlotte, NC
Crema's Take
“Milkbread draws a devoted crowd with genuinely creative comfort food—think crispy, perfectly seasoned fried cauliflower and Instagram-worthy cinnamon rolls—paired with both traditional and specialty coffee drinks, though consistency can be hit or miss. The vibe skews casual and late-opening friendly, with a menu that spans from light salads to excellent baked goods, making it worth visiting when you're after something more adventurous than your standard coffee shop fare.”

Hello, I was offered a fried cauliflower to taste hmm that’s DELICIOUS. I took another and another. The breading seasoning taste were simply marvelous. I let her know if you’re ever in that area again please remember me. That was two weeks ago. I couldn’t wait so I ordered a double order of fried cauliflower and citrus slaw. I pinched off it all two days. IT WAS MM GOOD. The slaw has a great flavor and was not mayonnaise based or vinegar based, the slaw was just perfect. I am a new customer and can’t wait to visit in person to dine in. Thank you.
I came for the cinnamon roll I saw on instagram. LOOK what I got. Seems to be false advertising - not to mention the extremely rude order taker. Beware! You can do better than coming to this business. Trust me
I’m sad because I love the food here. It is a bit pricey, but I swing for it every so often because I love their salads, fries, baked goods, etc. However, today I ordered the “Momo” salad. I paid for an extra side of dressing and requested no bacon, as I’m currently vegetarian. My salad came with only one side of dressing, which is not a huge deal, but it also came with some mystery meat on it. I’m not sure what this is, but I don’t believe it to be the bacon, which I would’ve understood a bit more…
The product they are delivering is awful. I got a doughnut and a chocolate croissant. They were so stale and hard. Even though I was there just after noon and the croissant I saw the employee just dumped it into the bag out of a little plastic bag under the desk. It would be zero Stars, but the employees were genuinely very nice. I enjoyed speaking with them. And the bathroom also was not the worst I’ve ever seen, but definitely unkempt.
I have been a Milkbread supporter since they came to the old Dairy Queen on Central Ave. Unfortunately today is my last. I ordered from Ubereats. I got the cauliflower. It is one of my favorites. Well it had a few extra ingredients that I wasn't expecting, reddish blonde hair fried into a few pieces. DISGUSTING!!!
