   Used to be very good but service was bad. No initiative to learn about the cheeses and wines and relied heavily on 2 staff members. More training definitely needed for staff. We were served flat sparkling wines, they changed it for us after we requested it - we felt that there was no quality control. In the past this place was worth the money but sadly for the price they are not anymore. Hurts me to say this, I wouldnt recommend this place (St Kilda brunch). Sorry.

   Very disappointed. We had a gift voucher for a Large flight wine and cheese for 2. Wed heard so many good reviews and we were looking forward to going. The drinks or cheeses were placed on our table without any explanation of what we were experiencing. We were told the head person was away sick and that's why. At the end we were charged an additional $31 fee as apparently the costhad increased. I thought vouchers were meant to be honoured in good faith. I'm not impressed and very disappointed in the overall experience such a huge let down!

   We had heard Raving reviews about it so wanted to try it. We were seated immediately, however despite being 1 of 2 tables there, noone came near us for a long time considering there were 5 waiters walking around. A friendly waiter did approach us and take our order but unfortunately had very little knowledge of the names of cheeses. We ordered a chutney that was specified would accompany the cheese board but it didn't arrive and when we brought it to his attention,he said it was because they had ran out. They turned down the lighting so much that the table beside us had their torch on their phones to look at the menu. The food was lovely and we would return for that but the service needs to improve.

   Amazing place to be if you are a cheese and wine lover. You will be in heaven! It's an experience where your taste buds are jumping for joy. I can't believe how much a cheese can change when introduced with wine.

    The food and the service was great, we had an amazing waitress and was guided by her in our food and beverage choices, all were amazing, a must try is the fondue. A great place for a drink after work, a date or a catch up with some friends.

    Such a bad experience never again. This was not the Milk the Cow we knew from pre lockdown. It appeared that there were only two slots left so we met early. However, it was apparent from vacancies at most other tables that the subsequent booked slots was blocked out time, it didn't result in other diners. We met a friend there, and this was an anti-service experience! 1. We were seated directly beneath a speaker in the wall, in a corner. The waiter refused to turn the sound down, citing that she was new and would get into trouble. It was hard to hear her. We had to give our 9yo NC headphones. We decided to order a cheese platter as fondue could not be served until 5pm (as it is a hot food). We were encouraged to try a blue cheese. In spite of 5 separate people behind the counter appearing to be very busy, it took 3 reminders to receive the cheese platter. It came 40 mins later, 4 remarkably bland cheeses, including an American one (?) and no blue cheese. There was no description given, but then we couldn't hear the description even if we wanted, (even though there were two other diners at front of venue.) I requested a description. No attempt at engagement by the 'cheese knowledgable' person. 2. We cancelled the fondue which also never materialised and got the hell out of there. By this time it was 6.15pm.

    Great cheese and wine! Service was very slow even though it wasn't crowded. The waiter was also quite rude. Overall I would recommend because the cheese platter was wonderful and I decided not to let 1 bad waiter spoil my view of the place.

    Booked a table - no table ready for us. so we were seated outside (in the Melbourne rain on a 6 degree night) with a free mulled wine. Got to our table some 15 mins later. Once inside, the service was fab and the poor guy tried his best, we ordered three different bottles of bubbles - all being told they were out of stock. Funny how the only bottle in stock was the $180 vintage! the flights were ok, however, the cheese portion was very small. Delivered the wrong cheese, they were quick to deliver the correct one, free of charge. Pricing is $$$$$$$$ Glad to have been and experienced, but this place is certainly ticked off my list of places to go.

    This is a lovely spot but sadly was let down by poor service by the majority of the staff. We asked what the wines were in the sparkling and the person said they’d just started and kept standing there until we said understand that but we’d still like to know what the wines are so they went off and brought back a staff book and plonked on table and this still didn’t have sparkling in it so eventually they went and got another member of staff. Some of the staff were good and clearly had a passion for food and wine but sadly in the minority.

    Found out about this venue from ABC program called "A Movable Feast" when they visited the St. Kilda area. Decided I just needed to treat hubby to a wine and cheese flight. I just Love, Love, Loved this place and will be back to try some of the other delectable delights on offer. We had booked in at a hotel walking distance away so we could wine and dine without worry of drink-drive, so we also shared a bottle of our best pick of the wines The Champers and another full round 180grms of our favourite Cheese. It was worth every cent.

    We had terrible service, and I had to talk to our waiter about his attitude and service standard. He made all the guests at our table uncomfortable, and ruined the evening. This was very different to the first time I had been to Milk the Cow.

    Milk the Cow - St KildaResponded on May 19, 2022Thank you for your review and we’re sorry to hear your recent experience with us was not up to our usual standard. There seems to be some confusion about which flight package was selected as the returned form had the Cheesemonger’s Choice selected (mixed wine flight option) instead of the Vintner’s Pick (French flight option). As for the service, we have spoken with the waiter and wish to sincerely apologise for his attitude and behaviour - this is definitely not the service we strive to give!

    I had a great time, in all honesty, I wish I could live down the road to pop in whenever I can Tall, dark/long haired fella pointed me in the direction to a convenience store which was super helpful Service was quick and casual, yet the food was to die for I'm a gin and cheese person and this exceeded my expectations on a night out by myself So thankful for the friendly nature of all the gents on the floor, I'm shocking with names, but koodos to Marcus for his professional manner when telling me my partner had paid for my bill via phone earlier that evening Excellent work all around from front to back, not a single complaint coking from me, I only wish I could have more
