The Millie's Story

Lauren was cool with it (mostly cuz she looooves ice cream) but she made a deal with Chad — it must be paid off by the end of the summer.  So Chad began to trial ice cream recipes in their home kitchen to sell at restaurant pop-ups around Pittsburgh (thanks Bar Marco!). After some buzz, the two of them started a CSA delivery service and every weekend, they’d pack pints, load up their cars, and drive around Pittsburgh talking to ice cream lovers. The support was so incredible and they were often invited into people’s homes to talk ice cream – and drink beers, of course. Lauren finally kicked out of their home kitchen (there were freezers everywhere!) and together they have now built Millie’s Ice Cream Works™ in Homestead, Penna. to make a little more ice cream with their growin’ squad – and, we may be biased, but it’s truly the best squad in town.

We believe the best things in life are real. No artificial relationships, no artificial ingredients – just naturally perfect ice cream, proudly hand-crafted from start to finish at Millie’s Ice Cream Works™. Every batch of ice cream starts with fresh milk from Twin Brook Dairy Co. and is churned with the best, in-season ingredients we can find. Our dairy-free gelatos are made for ice cream lovers. Thick & creamy, dense & indulgent, without a trace of science-y additives. This is real food. And Real Is Delicious™.
