The Row 7 Seed Company Koginut Squash Eclair is the perfect autumn bite, with layers of textures and flavors.

Our eclair starts with choux made with rye flour and baked with a vanilla craquelin. It’s then filled with a Squash Amazake made with squash, koi, and sushi rice, and topped with a whipped ganache of Norohy vanilla, Valrhona North America Satilia White Chocolate, and mascarpone. It’s finished with white pepper and toasted pepitas for crunch.

We are three days away from our new dine-in menu and we’re thrilled to partner with Row 7 Seed Company founded by Dan Barber for two autumn specials featuring their organic cross-pollinated squash. These items will be available at Milli with Row 7 produce starting this Friday, October 23.

Our Squash Tartine is bright and colorful with peels of Row 7 Koginut Squash, known for its rich nutty flavor and velvety texture, paired with whipped goat’s milk ricotta, roasted eggplant, buckwheat honey, pickled daikon, and pepitas on toasted house Durum Sourdough. Our new Squash and Pepita Brittle Eclair starts with rye choux, and is filled with Row 7 Honeypatch Squash amazake, spiced molasses cake, vanilla whipped ganache, and spiced pepita crumble for the perfect crunch.

Our iced Vermouth & Strawberry Creme is perfect for the lingering late afternoon and early evening hours that are meant to be spent unwinding with friends.

We’re proud to serve on draft behind the bar. Their Vermut Rojo is made from a blend of Garnacha Blanca and Airén grapes, and it’s warm and gently spiced but cut with citrus and light bitterness. The strawberry creme can be mixed in for a boozy cream soda effect. We’ll meet you at the bar!

A glimpse of a day in the life at Milli! There’s always the option to stop for a moment and enjoy a plated pastry and coffee, or to swing by the to-go room on the weekends. It’s open every Friday- Sunday from 7am- 2pm with pre-orders available online through Toast.

These pastries have remained on the menu since opening. The canele is a signifier of our pastry program: it’s elevated and classic, yet made with attention to detail so that the cultured butter and rum flavors shine through. Our Paradise Bun has the unique warming spice flavors from Grains of Paradise, but the jam and compote rotates seasonally, so it always feels new. Our Valrhona North America Pain au Chocolate and Salty Rye Chocolate Chip Cookie are classics for a reason.

✨Our To Go Room and Toast Pre-Order is Open! ✨

It’s a small shift with a simple purpose, to make things move a little more gently for everyone. If you’re grabbing coffee and a pastry to go, you’ll now have a dedicated space, quicker ordering, shorter wait times, and a clearer path through the morning rush. You can pick up your to go orders at the Kedzie facing entrance to the side of the main entrance. Your pastries will be waiting for you and your drink will be made as soon as you get here.

Inside, this also opens us up to something we’ve been moving toward for a while, more attentive service, a shorter line.

Alongside it, we’re adding things you can take with you, loaves of bread, overnight oats, parfaits, food made to hold you through the day, now available on toast for pre-order Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

We’ll meet you there.

Friends!

We’ve started pouring vermouth on draft. We want it to become part of the rhythm of this place, something woven into afternoons and conversations, poured generously and often. A small glass beside a flaky pastry, something crispy, something rich.

There’s romance in rituals that don’t require an occasion. In aperitifs before dinner, in bitter things made soft, in treating vermouth less like something forgotten on a back bar and more like something alive, herbal, meant to be shared. It’s a philosophy we carry into our coffee service too, intentional, curious about the story behind what’s in the glass.

Our Vermouth & Rhubarb Creme has quietly become a staff favorite: cold herbal vermouth softened with a cloud of vegan rhubarb creme, both refreshingly bitter and lush, an ode to spring.

Come let us pour you one.
