Milkbread
525 S Tryon St, Charlotte, NC
Crema's Take
“Skip this one—Milkbread's execution is wildly inconsistent, with orders routinely arriving late, cold, or drastically smaller than advertised, and their pastries (like the infamous $6 cinnamon roll) are overpriced for the quality you'll actually get. Even the few reviews praising the staff acknowledge that kindness can't make up for a 30+ minute wait on a sandwich that arrives soggy and incomplete.”
What to expect
Cold brew standout. Quick-grab spot. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

This milk bread location is terrible. Nothing on the staff - the ladies who work here are very kind. Anyways, I went once a few months ago & ordered an iced vanilla latte, but it was too bitter for me & also was $7 or $8. I went again today and got a hot vanilla latte & their…
Ordered online - have been to Milkbread once before and ABSOLUTELY LOVED the Original Sandwich which looked just like the picture from the menu ordering site. What I received was 3 small chicken bites that did not taste very good at all. The cauliflower was tasty but greasy.
