Bumsan Organic Milk Bar

The 13 Best Soft Serve Spots In Los Angeles

"Located right on Western Ave. in Ktown, Bumsan makes their ice cream using products from their organic farm in Korea, and the result is a light, airy soft serve that’s unlike any other version in town. They have a tight menu that includes matcha, chocolate, and pineapple-mango, but their nutty taro milk tea flavor remains our favorite. If you feel like getting a bit wild, go for the taro/chocolate twist, you won’t regret it. " - brant cox, sylvio martins

"If Bumsan’s organic soft serve isn’t enough of a draw, then its cereal-encrusted cones might be. Select from flavors like pink guava, pineapple mango, and taro milk tea before customizing cones with Fruity Pebbles, puffed rice, and the like." - Eater Staff, Mona Holmes

"Following a feast of pressed sushi, caramelized pork necks, and grilled sweet potatoes, a cool swirl of soft serve is just the thing to finish out the night. Budonoki’s only dessert is made from organic Straus milk and comes in fun flavors like coffee, coconut, or black sesame depending on the night." - Cathy Chaplin, Eater Staff

Since I discovered this place, I go here twice a week. World’s BEST milk ice cream. Highly pure and organic. You used to get this stuff decades ago due to purity of milk. And that’s it - the milk comes from Korea and is not American fake milk. I love this place. Please keep going!

Ordered the Croffle SoleMate with Taro Milk Tea and Pink Guava ice cream, with chocolate crumbs. The Croffle is a cross between croissant and waffle, served hot on top of your ice cream which I opted for in a cup. The croffle is served hot, which is the best way to enjoy the warmth of the pastry and the coolness of the ice cream. The taro milk tea and pink guava flavors are blended together creating a very pleasant and not too sweet, ice cream. I could taste a bit of both flavors combined, the milkiness of the taro milk tea and the sweetness of the pink guava. You can choose one included topping and I opted for the chocolate crumbs. I would recommend the croffle if you haven’t had it before and are curious. Otherwise, I recommend sticking to just the cup and cone options. It can get a little messy because the chocolate topping crumbs would scatter on a table anytime. Location is busy throughout the day and night, lots of foot traffic coming about. The employee there was very nice and patient while I got my order down and through paying. Atmosphere is quiet on slow periods but loud during a rush. Hardly any parking so consider street parking and walking over OR just walking over from a nearby area.

True milk is really good. I got the True matcha swirl with an oreo cone. Really enjoyed my Time with my kids. Looking forward to continue to explore my new home town, Koreatown, Los Angeles. Try it, enjoy it, take your best company and you won't regret it. Enjoy.

I went to check out this place on a Saturday evening. Unfortunately one of the machines was down, so one of the few flavors they had left was the True Milk one. And LET. ME. TELL. YOU. I consider myself an ice cream enthusiast and have tried my fair share of ice cream shops, from Cold Stone in Miami Lakes, FL all the way to Salt & Straw in Anaheim, CA. If there is ice cream, I have probably been there, and tried every flavor you could imagine. AND YET. This place blew me away just with one thing: The ice cream is as close as perfect as it gets. It is not too cold, not rock hard and difficult to eat, it is just plain and simply a delicious frozen treat. The amount of sweetness is perfect. The taste and texture is perfect. The softness is perfect. The shop is small and the clerk was super friendly and nice. It is also a clean establishment and there is a nice set of a few chairs and tables outside. AND YET. What stayed with me was none of that. It was how incredibly good the plainly-named and plain-looking True Milk was. Also, the sugar cones come in different flavors. I had the Oreo one with some crushed Oreo crumbs as a free topping. AND YET. None of that truly matters. Go and experience True Milk for yourself. I had been ingesting FAKE MILK my WHOLE LIFE apparently. because True Milk is a truly remarkable experience in of itself.

Bumsan is a dreamy treat spot! I got the strawberries & cream in a crispy waffle cone. Perfection! My fiancé had the True Milk with sprinkles, and it was just as delicious. Despite the crowd, service was fast and friendly. We grabbed a croiffle to go. Light, sweet, and super tasty. 10/10 recommend for a fun dessert fix!

Long lines but they move along fast, got Korean coffee with chocolate in a chocolate sprinkled cone and it hit the spot. Surprisingly not too sweet either which was perfect. Parking is very difficult so again uber or get dropped off here. Next time ima try the waffle cone for sure.

Excellent ice cream in a cute shop. Only limited outdoor seating, but there's a parking lot right next to it. We got Korean coffee and chocolate which was great, and the croissant waffles have been good as well. Also would recommend their Matcha and milk ice cream swirl

The Asian guy working today was so rude. If you don’t want to work in customer service, just go home and sleep. Also, the matcha ice cream was way too sweet it didn’t have that nice tea aroma at all. The milky flavor was okay, but nothing special.
