Menu Highlights

Wedding Chicken - Wild-rice-stuffed chicken breast comes with glazed carrots, gravy, cranberry conserve, and tossed salad. The savory-sweet combination makes this substantial special feel like a complete home-style dinner.

Thanksgiving on a Roll - Turkey, melted cheddar, stuffing, and cranberry mayonnaise create a creamy, savory sandwich with a bright sweet-tart finish. It stands out by packing familiar holiday flavors into an easy deli lunch.

Chicago-Style Deep Dish Pizza - A thick, hearty slice topped with meatball, sausage, and pepperoni delivers rich flavor and a filling texture. Its generous trio of meats makes it one of the more indulgent recent specials.

Meatball Sandwich - Tender meatballs, tomato sauce, and melted provolone are tucked into a roll for a classic combination of tangy, cheesy, savory flavors. It is straightforward comfort food with broad appeal.

Shepherd’s Pie - This traditional comfort-food favorite is served with a tossed salad, balancing its hearty character with something crisp and fresh. It is particularly suited to diners wanting a satisfying hot meal rather than a sandwich.

Lobster Bisque - Smooth, creamy, and seafood-forward, this soup offers a richer alternative to the deli’s sandwiches and lighter selections. Lobster bisque is also specifically identified among The Wheatmarket’s menu highlights.

Turkey & Cranberry Sandwich - Roasted turkey paired with cranberry flavors creates a pleasing balance between savory meat and fruity sweetness. Variations of this combination have remained a well-liked Wheatmarket choice over the years.
