MILK TRAIN:
DESSERT CAFE
By CAMS
Milk Train is Central London’s fancy Dessert Cafe. It offers a range of ice creams, milkshakes and hot drinks… with funky and creative twists! It’s particularly known for its very ‘Instagrammable’ candy floss, ‘cloud’ ice cream cones.
Price: Around £5 per cone
I visited Milk Train before its much-needed move to a bigger location. When I arrived, there was a massive queue of people spilling out of the Cafe and down the street eagerly waiting to get in.
When I finally got inside, of course, I had to try the most popular dessert – The ‘cloud’ ice cream cone. The ice cream used is ‘soft serve’ from a machine, and you choose your flavour and toppings. I opted for the salted caramel and popcorn topping (yum!). The candy floss is an additional £1.
Next to the counter was a small flower wall. This was routinely used as a cute background for everyone’s ice cream photos.
The experience definitely brings out your inner child, but I have to admit it looked a lot more glamorous than it was! As there were so many people gathered at the tiny doorway waiting to get in, it was much easier to stay and eat in the cafe. But it was so warm in there, the ice cream started melting down the cone immediately, along with the sauce and popcorn and the ‘cloud’ slid down the cone! (Lol)
However, if you want some pretty photos for the Gram and a quick sugar rush, Milk Train Dessert Cafe is definity worth the visit!
