reimagined dining.

Down home food. Family vibes. Gathering Space.

THE roots

“Several years ago I was inspired by a dear friend to chase my long time dream of being a chef. What started as pop-up dinners in back yards turned into an actual brick-and-mortar restaurant, named after my home town, Millport NY (population 300).
Opening in such unusual times gave me the unique opportunity to do things differently. To think out of the box. To make my own rules.
Over the last 4 years I have slowly cultivated this thing into a new business model for a new age of dining:
Weathering the fragility of post-covid & family restaurant life with my kind of food; plentiful & rustic.
A new culture: respecting life balance and finding creative ways to be profitable in a time when it is nearly impossible.
We believe in family, community & caring for our planet… All while honoring the memory of my late friend Susan.
With fierce values and abundant ambition, I am proud as hell of how we have survived & thrived.
Millport is home. Welcome home!”
Chef Alynn

cafÉ/market

For several years before the corner of 13th & Donax was Millport, it was a breakfast spot loved by many. We knew we had to offer something special for those long-time patrons.
After 3 years of grinding all week, we realized we needed to find a more sustainable and less traditional business model. We decided to pivot Millport Cafe to be a weekend hotspot to allow us more flexibility for our private events and gluten free bakery.
Millport Cafe is now open Friday-Sunday, 9am-2pm or until sold out. We prepare a limited amount of food daily to reduce food wasted. Millport is working hard in 2026 to be zero food waste. And, occasionally we close for private events as they are more lucrative than eggs & bacon.
On the weekends, come enjoy delicious pastries baked in house daily (all gf).
We proudly serve the freshest roast by Visitor Coffee, a small local business we are thrilled to have teamed up with. And our seasonal menu features sandwiches, bowls, sweets & a couple of Millport faves. And get this…. everything is or can be made gluten free!
We also created a little market with things we love: cards, novelty items, pickled veggies, hot sauces & more. Many of which are made by local artisans within our community.

GF PASTRIES

Emmi is the mastermind behind our pastry program. She has spent countless hours creating an amazing lineup of sweet treats that you would never believe are gluten free.
Scones, Tarts, Muffins, seasonal pastries & Cake are a few of our popular morning delectables.
All pastries are baked daily and
available until sold out.
Custom orders welcome.
Breakfast & lunch

Alynn’s plentiful rustic breakfast will leave you delighted & full. Incorporating color, fresh herbs & her bold house seasonings, these dishes pack beauty & flavor, while maintaining a down home vibe. Try one of our open-faced Avocado Toasts. Our popular Veggie Bowl is loaded with local produce & a delicious curry aioli. And the Fisher sandwich on a Big City Bagel has NY written all over it.
COFFEE

We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Visitor Coffee Roaster to bring you an other-worldly café experience. Visitor roasts fresh beans in National City by the owners, our good pals, Will & Seth. Both Imperial Beach natives.
Pop by and grab a cup of joe. Or choose from our espresso drink menu. All our drinks are available decaf! Also grab a bag of beans from the Millport market.

cafe MENUS

bakery

When we opened Millport we never imagined becoming a go-to spot for gluten free pastries, but here we are!
A few years ago Chef Alynn turned to a gluten free lifestyle. It didn’t take long to realize that dining out is scary. The options are limited and forget finding baked goods that aren’t like cardboard. We saw an opportunity.
Emmi, baker & co-owner of Millport, went on a mission to create amazing pastries that no one would recognize as gluten free. And so, our pastry counter became filled with huge chewy cookies, moist bundt cakes and s”crumb”diddlyumptious cakes.
Hop ahead 3 years to the best gluten free cakes you’ve ever tasted.
Our bakery is now open and taking custom cake orders for your next event. Inquire at 619.884.8096.
