    CHOPPED CHEESE
    Nick N.

    The social media posts about the chopped cheese here are 100% true! It is so good! While not listes on their inside menu, they post about it on their window. Jam packed with meat and cheese. The sauce/spread blends so well. Bunch of lettuce for freshness. Nice kick from the peppers. I would get that all the time. Super friendly. Nice little corner bodega.

    Love the concept of this place!!! Especially because everything else in this neighborhood is all these fancy little coffee shops or açaí bowls, etc and sometimes all you need is a good simple bagel or wrap without all the extra fluff and trendiness. The basic!!! I tried the chopped cheese which I thought was really good, but thought it was odd that it came in a round bun instead roll. It is a little on the pricey side as well in addition to their overall menu on the pricey side, but it is somewhat expected in this neighborhood. Staff is super friendly and great people.

    After escaping to the east coast (New York City, Jersey, & Philly), I returned to my roots and visited my hometown of San Francisco just a few weeks later. This is where I visited a small hole-in-the-wall deli that gives you a taste of New York and is none other than "Bottles & Bites". Located on Union St (and adjacent to Octavia St) in the heart of the Marina District (my old stomping grounds as a kid), this place has been serving up a variety of sandwiches, salads, breakfast options, coffee, smoothies, and much more dating back to mid-2025. Even on their menu flyer, they are dubbed "A New York Bodega with a San Francisco TOUCH & LOVE". I came here during the afternoon on Saturday 11/15/2025 at around 2:45pm. Since it was the tail-end of the lunch rush, I was able to walk right up and place my order. Keep in mind that this place is quite small and can accommodate seating for a maximum of 6 customers. However, there are a couple of outdoor tables and chairs on the more comfortable San Francisco days. They do have quite a bit of sealed drinks, snacks, and even a ton of non-food items; much like what you'd find in an actual New York bodega. The hours are quite reasonable as they are open Mon-Thu from 7am-9pm, Fri-Sat from 7am-11pm, and Sunday from 8am-8pm. Since I was starving, I decided to go with one of their fully loaded sandwiches, the "Eat-aliano". This consisted of mortadella, Italian salami, prosciutto, provolone cheese, mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and onions. Since I was in the city, I had to go with sourdough as my bread of choice. My lady ordered their "Chicken Caesar Wrap" as her meal. Within 5 minutes, my sandwich and her wrap is brought out to us. I will say that portions are quite huge but the real winner is the bread. It was made to perfection while all the meats & veggies were packed in nicely. The only drawback is that this was a bit pricey (at nearly $18) but you are in a popular touristy area of San Francisco. I will say that "Bottles & Bites" has a lot going for it; a huge variety of menu options to choose from as well as prime location in the Marina District. Since they just opened only 4 months prior to my visit here, we will see if they can withstand the test of time and be here for the long haul. With above average customer service, delicious sandwiches that left me feeling full and happy, I am giving this small business a respectable four-star rating.

    It's really late on Halloween night and me and my girl were bar hopping in SF! We stopped in to get sandwiches because the signs in the windows said they were famous! Think like a bodega but better! Lots of sandwich options and tons of drink choices like a mix of a gas station and bodega minus the gas! The sandwiches were expensive but HUGE! Check out bottles & bites!

    I was so excited about this place but was slightly disappointed. The sandwiches themselves didn't have enough meat or fixings in them. I got chipotle mayo in mine which was really good, however, nothing else about the sandwich stood out. On the other hand, the place was really clean, the staff was nice and they had a great drink/chip selection. I will be coming back to try again, but overall I was a bit disappointed because I feel that it was hyped up on social media.

    Writing this review is a bummer but something has to be said - you can't call yourselves a bodega and serve a BEC as lackluster as these. Store bought Thomas bagels don't cut it, the bacon is always undercooked and the eggs are always overcooked - it's just flat out not good. I've tried three now, same result every time. There is a proper way to make these, east coast style, and this just isn't cutting it. It's a bummer, because everything else is wonderful! Super friendly staff, quick service, open late, and other menu items are solid. But man - the BEC needs to improve, stat. It's the most important menu item. I'm rooting for you guys, but something's gotta give!!

    Had a great experience here! It is expensive ($19 for a chopped cheese!), but my partner and I split one sandwich which they kindly put on two separate trays for us. The menu is a good size and there are 4 bar seats inside with two outdoor tables. There is a fun array of snacks and drinks for purchase and it is a clean place with kind employees.

    Unfortunately very disappointing. I was excited to try the chopped cheese, which everyone seems to get here, and was let down immediately. The price for this sandwich is absurd ($20). I'm aware things are expensive in San Francisco, but this is honestly just crazy. Their other items were much more reasonably priced. The chopped cheese was the messiest thing I've ever eaten, definitely best eaten in privacy... It immediately fell apart when you picked it up and was a bit of a disaster. I could've excused this, but it had very little flavor and left a lot to the imagination. The bread was stale and hard to bite. Despite the food, the staff were very, very nice. All big smiles and extremely friendly.

    My husband came here yesterday and got the chopped cheese and wasn't disappointed. He said it was one of the best sandwiches he's ever had. I can't wait to try it myself! He also mentioned how clean the place was and how kind the employees were!

    Al's Special on Dutch Crunch

    My boyfriend and I were in the area looking for food on a Tuesday afternoon. We looked inside and was immediately greeted by the workers. The place was very clean and organized. They provided great service and had a lot of sandwich options alongside snacks and drinks! We got the Al's Special and Eat-aliano. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. The workers were very kind and polite. The store just opened two days ago. Let's put these guys on the map!

    I was excited to try this place because I saw Festus Ezeli's post. However, I was disappointed with the overall experience. For starters, my Breakfast Burrito wasn't grilled (pics below), like one often sees at other eateries. I thought maybe this was normal, but when I looked at their IG, I saw the wraps were grilled and an influencer's post showed her Breakfast Burrito was grilled. I ended up taking it home and grilling it myself. I also had to add salt since it tasted like none was added to the mixings. We ordered our food for pickup since we were running errands in the neighborhood, but when we went inside, there was no pick-up line. You had to wait along with the other patrons who were making fresh orders. I think it would be helpful to have a separate pick-up line like other eateries do, since that food is ready to go. Making those pick-up orders wait in the same line will only guarantee lukewarm or cold food if it's really busy. Once we got to the cashier, she was handed a finished sandwich by the cook for another customer. She tried calling out said order, but the music inside was so loud, the patron didn't hear the callout - and this person was inside, maybe 10-15ft away. The cashier went outside, then inside before finally tracking her down. This is telling because the store itself is not very big. It's comparable to an intimate cafe, size-wise. Playing music is fine, but if patrons inside can't even hear their order - forcing the cashier to walk around, which in-turn delays all the people in line, then it's probably too loud. Even the people standing around waiting were shouting at each other just to conversate. I'd like to try their other sandwiches, but my first experience was a let down, unfortunately. Hopefully they polish things up, because I'd like to give them another visit and update my rating.

    Great breakfast sandwich! I got the B&B classic with bacon. The store was also very clean and had a lot of options.

    I love this little grocery store tucked away in North Beach. It has a great variety of foods,…read morebrands, and even a good assortment of personal care products (if you're needing something in a pinch). The guy working on the weekends (employee? owner? not sure) is nice and polite and always has a smile when we're there. We enjoy picking up unique beer and ciders from the wide assortment in the fridges in the second half, as well as finding interesting cheeses. It's also great for the one or two things you might need that evening or snacks for later. My only complaint is I wish I lived closer so I could go a bit more often!

    This convenient little shop has an excellent wine selection and lots of upscale consumable options…read more Their wine pricing is also often less than the average prices listed on Vivino. It's a grocery store, but has a bit of a boutique and rich vibe. It's one of the few places to get Mary's Chicken in the area and I have to get chocolate every time I go in there. The ambiance seems very hygienic to me, so I feel drawn into the place when I walk by. The Nature Stop has nice stuff, but my review has to be in earnest... maybe 2 or 3 stars? It's annoying that through several iterations of ridiculousness, you have to expect encountering some unnecessary and incompetent problem during each transaction. Two different cashiers didn't seem to understand the concept of tare weight. They weighed the meat with the packaging and attempted to charge me for it, despite the fact that the weight of the meat was printed directly on the packaging. I've worked in a meat department before and I have never seen that kind of inept behavior. It's insulting to the customer. So at the present time, the 2021 Domaine Bousquet Malbec is $11.99 here. The cashier scanned it and it came up as zero. He joked that it was free, but then had the audacity to offer me the obviously more expensive reserve price of $16.99, like the reserve one right next to it, and laughed in my face. I passed as I knew that Trader Joe's has the exact same thing for $9.99. Tonight, the Elysian 'tiger beer', listed at $13.99, rang up at $17.99, the same as their space dust. I passed, but they should at least have offered to have honored the price they had printed out for customers to read. The Space Dust IPA at S&S Market, one block away, was $15.99, so I bought it there and got to pet their cat too. It's a bit of a first world problem, but I didn't notice until being at home that my $6.25 chocolate bar, which is more than I made hourly when younger, was comprised of the wrong variety. I grabbed the chocolate bar behind the front one, to avoid the most touched one. It is a berry chocolate bar instead of the ginger one, and it's great, but still, the employees should be better at recovery. I was one of about two people in the store and it was not busy. I recommend going to this place to get ideas. Double check all the prices and shop around, but they have great merchandise. My suggestion to the owner is to install a self-checkout. The guy stocking merchandise was very helpful tonight with my bags.

This location is really close to my work, which was great. I stopped by on a Tuesday at 1:30pm and there were only a few customers inside. I like the simple decor and the big menu on the wall, it reminded me of Hawaii. I ordered the original gangster and waited less than 5 minutes before it was ready. The açaí was not too sweet (just how I like it), and I loved all the toppings that came with it such as the granola, banana, blueberry, coconut shavings, and honey. The strawberry was a bit too tart but other than that, everything was great. I think I've found my favorite açai spot in the city. I can't wait to try other flavors next time I stop by.
