Where morning espresso meets midnight cocktails — a dual-concept space on East Lake Street crafted for every hour of your day.
Milkweed lives on East Lake Street as a place that transforms with the light — bright and bustling in the morning with freshly pulled espressos and house-baked pastries, then shifting into something warmer and more intimate as the sun sets and the cocktail program takes over.
We believe the best neighborhood spots are the ones that earn their place in your routine. Whether you're grabbing a quick pour-over between meetings or settling in with a negroni and good conversation after work, Milkweed is designed to feel like yours.

Every detail at Milkweed is designed to make you stay a little longer.
Warm materials, low lighting, and a soundscape that shifts with the time of day — designed for conversation or quiet focus.
Every cocktail is built from scratch — house-made syrups, fresh juices, and spirits selected for balance, not markup.
Community events, local art on the walls, and a team that knows your name — this is your spot on Lake Street.
We're right on East Lake Street — easy to find, hard to leave.
