The Sansglu take
The place
Ghost kitchen doing full gluten-free from the ground up. Housemade baked goods, trained staff, carryout only. Michelin legacy behind the operation.
The gluten-free setup
Entirely gluten-free kitchen with dedicated fryer. Staff trained on celiac protocols. Separate prep and cooking throughout, no shared equipment or flour on premises.
What to order
Go for the popovers, pancakes, or a breakfast sandwich if the menu has it that day. Wheat's End is the place to scratch the cafe itch without asking whether the toaster is shared.
The move
The important update is that Wheat's End is takeout and delivery only now, not a lingering brunch room. It is still a dedicated gluten-free kitchen and a successor in spirit to Chicago's older dedicated cafe scene, so order ahead and plan it like a pickup.
