Wolfe Pack Company Bar is located next door<br />
to the popular breakfast spot Little Bird. In<br />
the middle of Wortley Village it is accessible,<br />
welcoming and convivial with inspired cuisine<br />
such as house-made charcuterie and seasonal or<br />
artisanal items in limited quantities, in order to<br />
maintain a high level of quality. The resto seats<br />
about 60 customers, and will include two patios,<br />
one seating an additional 45 patrons, and another<br />
30 seats at the front of the restaurant. The menu<br />
is reminiscent of the best of the former Wolfe of<br />
Wortley, but scaled-down and more accessibly<br />
priced. 145 Wortley Road, 226-663-4567<br />
Above the new Wolfe Pack Company Bar in Wortley<br />
Village is the boutique Bake Shop Studio. You<br />

scratch. If you can’t come during retail hours, or<br />

vegan cupcakes are offered across the street at<br />
the new Wortley Café (formerly Fire Roasted.) 145<br />
