White or Wheat: Open or Closed?

By: Mr. Wilson on January 4, 2012
I can't figure out White or Wheat, the sandwich shop near Russ's on 70th and Van Dorn. For one thing, I've never directly run across anybody who has been there. Yet when I ask people about it, many have told me that "a friend" or family member loves it. White or Wheat has never had a proper sign, instead settling for a hodgepodge of window decorations and temporary signs that I would think would embarrass the landlord and its neighbors. And just yesterday as I passed on my way to Oso I noticed that the storefront featured both an "Open" sign and a "For Lease" sign. You don't see those two together very often. Do any of you know anything about White or Wheat? Have you eaten there?

I have not eaten there in a long time. FWIW -  A coworker of mine goes there occasionally. He said as of a couple weeks ago they were still open.  He thought that they had an additional seating area on one side of the store that was underutilized and that is why there is a for lease sign.

That’s a possible explanation. The storefront is such a disaster it’s hard to tell what’s going on with that place.

We have gone once for breakfast - we tried to go another time but the cook overslept and missed his bus so they opened late.  The biscuits and gravy are ok - not the world’s best as advertised =) We never tried lunch.  Not sure what direction they were really trying to go.  If it was the breakfast lunch thing they probably needed to open before 8!
