Wolf & Company brings restaurant, market to the 606
With the opening of Wolf & Company at Western and the 606, serviceberries are no longer the tastiest treats on the Bloomingdale Trail.
Why it matters: The dual-level bar, restaurant, market and cafe with a handsome trail-hugging patio takes 606 enjoyment to a new level.
Dig in: During a recent media preview, we loved the wood-fire pizza ($20-$29), golden beets ($13) and spicy Buffalo wings ($17), but the dirty martini salad ($18) was missing some creamy balance. Roast chicken, steaks and ribs round out the menu.
Fans of sister spots, Gretel and Little Bad Wolf, will be happy to find a juicy, perfectly stacked cheeseburger ($24) that lives up to the family name.
Drink up: The bar offers a wide array of cocktails ($16) and pints of local and imported craft ciders and beer ($8-$10).
Cafe patrons can sip brews from Rare Tea Cellar, Rishi, Hexe and Big Shoulders.
Shop talk: The downstairs grocery store features food-centric gifts, deli items, local artisan products and even a butcher.
Watch out: Snag one of the comfy outdoor tables and take in some great people watching as 606 users stream past on bikes and feet.
