★★★★☆ 4.0 Donna · Dec 2025

One of my favorite places to grab dessert, the honey ice cream and the affogato are both really good. However, I did get a boba drink from here once that wasn’t my favorite (there are better places for drinks in the area).

Such a cute spot with a cozy, playful atmosphere! The decor adds a fun touch! We tried the Milky Honey, Snow Drop, Affogato, and Black Pearl soft serves — each one had its own twist and tasted amazing. I especially loved the combo of honey with the creamy base in Milky Honey, and the Snow Drop was super fun with all the toppings. The Affogato had a bold espresso flavor that balanced out the sweetness nicely. Everything we had was delicious, and we’ll definitely be coming back next time!

★★★★★ 5.0 Naima Tillett · Oct 2024

This place is super cute! The decor is chill & cutesy! Prices are super reasonable. We had the cookies & cream & mango tree soft serves, which were both delicious! We also tried the guava milk tea & a honeycomb latte. The guava is yummy & not too sweet. The honeycomb latte, my husband enjoyed. Overall great experience & would definitely come here again when visiting!

This place deserves so much more hype, whole milk ice cream made with premium ingredients. What's not to love? 2nd time here and I will happily be returning to Millcow!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Anusha · Jun 2025

Cute spot, it looks like they intend on it being a study spot/cafe kind of vibe. Free WiFi is available. This would make a fun spot to catch up with friends. I would say the desserts run on the sweet side, more than what I personally would like, unless I just haven’t tried the right ones. The drinks themselves are pretty good. Ergonomically the chairs aren’t reallllyy meant for you to spend hours getting work done here, but they do welcome you that option if you’re feeling up to it. Fun place to have around here!
