MEET PUBLICAN QUALITY BREAD

Each One Off Hospitality concept is fueled by the desire to use the highest quality and most responsibly sourced ingredients - produce, meat, you name it. In 2014, the One Off team brought on Greg Wade, an experienced and innovative baker who previously helmed Little Goat Bread. Collaborating with Executive Chef Paul Kahan and our Chefs de Cuisine across The Publican family of restaurants, Greg and the entire Publican Quality Bread team now have a dedicated place to explore how whole grains and thoughtful fermentation can yield ridiculously good bread. Greg and his team now oversee the bread program for all One Off Hospitality Group concepts, creating new breads that fit with each restaurant's distinct menu. Additionally, Publican Quality Bread has a burgeoning wholesale division that currently supplies to over 50 restaurants across Chicago.
