Stone Milled, Locally Sourced

Hewn uses organic flour and grains.  We partner with several local farmers to source our ingredients.

Our Libertyville outpost offers a curated selection of items.  Certain items, such as cold sandwiches, ciabatta, almond and chocolate almond croissants, dutch crunch rolls, and canelés are only available in Evanston.

Challah is available every Friday at 9am for walk-in sales at both locations.  We suggest pre-ordering challah through our Tock site.  Baguettes are available in Evanston every day – they are usually out of the oven by 10 am.  Baguettes are available in Libertyville Friday-Sunday.

Daily Specials

Our bread selection rotates daily and consists of our country loaf, blonde country loaf, whole wheat seeded and rotating specialty loaves. Baguettes are available in Evanston and they are baked around 9:30 am. They are available on a first come, first served basis. Please note that this schedule is subject to change pending ingredient availability and/or certain holidays or events.
