Auth::user() and Auth::check() will return null/false (respectively) in two situations: if you're not logged in at all (for obvious reasons) or if your route doesn't have sessions or API token authentication enabled.

In a default install, the web routes get session-based authentication, and the api routes get token-based authentication. Ensuring the route has the proper set of middleware (or custom middleware, if you're rolling your own authentication criteria) does the trick.
