It’s time to get your final slices (or whole pies) from E&F Pizzeria, the sister restaurant to Egg & Flour Pasta Bar at Crossroads Collective, 2238 N. Farwell Ave.

The fast casual pizza concept will observe its final service on Sunday, Jan. 22.

The micro-pizzeria, which opened in December of 2020, was launched as a pilot of sorts for the Egg & Flour brand. But Chef Adam Pawlak says that, while the pizza concept thrived during the pandemic, his time has since been divided in too many directions to continue to give the concept the attention it deserves. 

“Thank you to anyone who has come by and gotten a slice or a whole pie,” Pawlak noted in a farewell post today on Facebook. “And thanks to the amazing staff that kept this place going and helping me live my dream of my own little slice shop.”

Egg & Flour Pasta bar will remain open at the East Side food hall.
