Information
Milky Bar is a typeface inspired by menu boards from Polish milk bars — those PRL-era canteens where letters were stuck to the board by hand, and when a specific character was missing, a similar one would do: Ź instead of Ż, M rotated 180 degrees instead of W, or an upside-down V instead of A. This happy accident became a defining feature of the typeface — Milky Bar includes contextual alternates for A, M, W, Ź and Ż that capture the spirit of the original boards. Letters and diacritics form a single unit, just like in the original. Available in four styles — Soft with rounded terminals and Sharp without, each with an Oblique variant — it's a narrow, sans-serif all caps that blends retro with modern. Built for display. Includes Latin with European diacritics and Cyrillic.
