Handcrafted with imported Italian flour, time-honored recipes, and ingredients that taste like home. Your neighborhood bakery, right here in Franklin Park.
Il Mulino Di Valenzano Bakery has been a fixture in Franklin Park for years — a place where the smell of fresh bread greets you at the door and every pastry is made with the same care your grandmother would approve of.
We import our flour directly from Italy, use traditional methods passed down through generations, and bake in small batches throughout the day so everything you pick up is as fresh as it gets. No shortcuts, no compromises — just honest Italian baking done right.
Every item on our menu is baked or prepared in-house, using recipes that have been perfected over years of honest work.
Ciabatta, focaccia, multigrain, and classic Italian loaves — all baked fresh each morning with imported flour and a whole lot of patience.
Cannoli, sfogliatelle, biscotti, and more — made the traditional way with quality fillings and real ingredients you can taste.
Expertly pulled espresso, creamy cappuccinos, and rich Americanos — paired perfectly with any of our fresh pastries.
Birthdays, weddings, holidays — we bake custom cakes to order. Tell us your vision and we'll make it a delicious reality.
Hearty Italian sandwiches on our fresh bread — filled with imported meats, cheeses, and vegetables. A satisfying lunch done right.
Pull up a chair, enjoy a coffee, and watch the world go by. Our café area is the perfect spot for a quiet moment or a catch-up with friends.
