Mille is a French bakery and café on West Alameda in Santa Fe, built around counter-service crêpes, morning pastries, and brunch and lunch fare. The crêpe batter is limited to five ingredients — eggs, flour, milk, butter, and salt — with a buckwheat version made from imported Treblec flour, naturally gluten-free with a darker color and slight sour notes suited to savory fillings.
Morning pastries — croissants, pains au chocolat, croissants aux amandes, kouign-amanns, danishes, cruffins, savory croissants, and morning buns — are made from scratch using French butter (Isigny Sainte-Mère) and French flour (Les Grands Moulins de Paris), with a slow fermentation process. The kitchen also serves baguette sandwiches like the jambon-beurre and pâté-cornichon, French classics such as salade niçoise and salade de chèvre chaud, and seasonal dishes including cassoulet, moules marinières, escargots, duck confit, chicken cordon bleu, and blanquette de veau. Brunch runs toward French toast and Croque Madame, and the dessert case holds eclairs, cream puffs, opera cakes, and fruit tarts. The wine list is entirely French, spanning Burgundy, Bordeaux, and Corsica.
Bread is homemade sourdough, served alongside lunch dishes and salads. Santa Fe Reporter named Mille to its 2025 Best of City list, and the café has built a following for its pastries and quiche among locals and visitors alike.
