    It’s a big milk! They serve food, including soft serve - and it is definitely overpriced lol. But you certainly don’t have to buy any of it - still amusing to look at this simple attraction.

    Believe it or not- one of several “giant milk bottles” across Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The others aren’t Hood but other companies and some are abandoned… but there was a day giant milk bottles were a fad. This milk bottle in the Seaport has become iconic and you’ll find it in the plaza in front of the Children’s Museum

    As we were leaving The Hard Rock Of Boston, I insisted to get a few pictures of the famous Hood Milk Bottle of Boston MA! I actually captured those photos while at a light , had to open the car window & take the pictures from a distance. Unfortunately, there's no parking to my knowledge. If there was I'd love to get a real close- up of the actually Hood Bottle. Still so glad that I'd finally got a chance to take a few great pictures. Theuly actually do have a tour , I don't know much about the tour, I would love to go on the tour. They also, sell food , today they were closed early due to the weather. This is such a unique thing, I'd had to capture the moment & share it with everyone!

    This is the tallest milk bottle in the world. It is a cool attraction to check out and get some ice cream if you’d like. The location is also perfect. It is in one of the most highly developed neighborhoods in Boston.

    What is amazing landmark in the middle of Boston! This is right by the children's museum and the Boston tea party museum. Of course it's pricey because of the location but it's definitely a novelty. Make sure you have cash because they only deal in cash or Venmo. The Italian ice was yummy as it melted.

    Quick and efficient service! Generous size for soft serve. Kid size is more than enough :)

    Ice cream was not good. Not what I expected for soft serve cone. It's very pricey for a cone. I just wanted to try ice cream since it's on a good location. If you are looking for ice cream around this area, go somewhere else!

    A cool little place to visit even if it's just to see a funky little milk bottle on a pier. 100% recommend visiting

    Ran an hour across the city with 3 small kids because it says it closes at 5:30 on the website. Got there at 5:10, and it closed at 5.

    Cash only... Walked all the way over there from a nearby hotel to find out the hard way :/

    A must see while in Boston and at the Tea Party museum. Get some soft serve.

    Worst milk ever. It expires way more than written date on it. And it’s not happened once, I am finally writing this review after experiencing it for more than 4 5times. It’s happening with everyone around us. Waste of money, health damaging product should be ban. Sharing photo and video. Date written of expiry is 28th of April and is video is of 23rd April.
