🍎🍂 Fall flavors have arrived at Café Benelux!

Warm up with the new Salted Caramel Apple Toddy, featuring hot apple c***r, salted caramel, whipped cream and a cinnamon stick. Looking for something with a little more energy? Try the new Lowlander Momentum, a caffeinated, fizzy drink available in Yumberry Red or Starfruit Yellow! ⚡

These are just a few of the new drinks on Café Benelux’s seasonal menu, available now through spring.

Plus, 💕 Sip for a cause this October! In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Café Benelux and Ansay International are donating $2 from every glass of rosé purchased throughout October to After Breast Cancer Diagnosis, an organization supporting those impacted by breast cancer.

Cheers to good drinks and a great cause! 🥂

🍎 We might be halfway through October, but there's still plenty of time to treat yourself to a fresh, housemade caramel apple from Freese's Candy Shoppe!

Made right here at Milwaukee Public Market using locally grown Wisconsin apples, these sweet seasonal favorites are one of our favorite signs that fall has arrived! 🍂

🫒 We joined Ben & Bryan for a taste of world-class olive oils and balsamic vinegars at ORO di Oliva!

If you haven't experienced a tasting at Oro di Oliva yet, we highly recommend it! Their knowledgeable team will walk you through a variety of incredible olive oils and balsamic vinegars, sharing a little about what makes each one special.

The best part? Tastings are completely free and available anytime they're open! 🫒

📸 If you don't know Market regular Eric Halvie, you may know his alter ego, Bert Lauderdale!

A familiar face around Milwaukee Public Market, Eric has become something of a Market fixture. Whether he's behind his camera capturing photos of the Market, sitting at the Foltz Family Market Wurst Bar, or discovering a new favorite from one of our vendors, Eric always seems to find his way back.

💬 As he puts it, “I always find myself here. I teleport here. I wake up and p**f, I’m here.”

We caught up with Eric to learn about his favorite Market stops, go-to meals and the one Market experience he still has on his bucket list.

👉 Swipe through to spend a little time at the Market with Eric!
