There is a new, up-and-coming restaurant poised to become a must-visit destination and neighborhood staple in Bucktown.
The team behind the acclaimed restaurants Little Bad Wolf and Gretel is set to open Wolf & Company—the only space in Chicago with direct access to The 606 trail.
Wolf & Company will be a full-service restaurant and cocktail bar, an all-day café, a specialty market with an in-house butcher, and one of the city’s most distinctive patios—all under one roof.
Co-owner Sol Ashbach said:
After years of building concepts that people return to again and again, we wanted to create something with even more depth, a place that’s part of the everyday.
Wolf & Company is more than a restaurant. It’s a gathering place designed to meet you at every moment of your day—whether you’re coming in from The 606 for coffee, meeting friends at the bar, or stopping by the butcher on your way home.
The restaurant’s layered format caters to a range of needs, from morning espresso to weekend dinner service.
Wolf & Company Restaurant & Bar
The ground floor of Wolf & Company features a full-service restaurant and bar. Led by Executive Chef Graham Akroyd, the menu will feature a reimagined version of the group’s cult-favorite burger, as well as pizzas and pastas made from housemade dough, hot and cold appetizers, vegetable-forward sides, steak, and fish.
Market, Deli & Butcher
The market at Wolf & Company will serve as a neighborhood resource for thoughtfully curated, high-quality food.
Whether you’re organizing a dinner party, assembling a charcuterie board, or simply picking up lunch, the market combines chef-driven convenience with locally sourced products.
Café & Lounge
Upstairs, guests will find the café, which features a rotating selection of coffee beans. Other options include classic and specialty drinks, crafted syrups, teas, cold brews, cold-pressed juices, made-to-order smoothies, and a menu of housemade pastries and light breakfast fare.
The second floor also houses a 20-seat bar and lounge space that opens directly onto the patio overlooking The 606.
When does Wolf & Company open?
It officially opens June 23.
