This place is a sleeper. Located right outside of Parc 55 they come stacked with coffee, drinks, snacks and dessert. We got bagel breakfast sandwiches and coffees and it set up back about $36. Not cheap, but also for the area the convenience is worth the cost. For the dessert lovers, this is the place to come to grab slices of cake or cheesecake. It's a STEAL. $7 per slice. That's unheard of and it's absolutely quality bakes. read more

"I remember breakdancin' to Melle Mel" (2Pac) Melli's is a sweet little neighborhood bodega on Ellis Street. We stopped in early today to grab some bagels to take on the bus for out wine tour adventure. They have a ton of options- bagels, sandwiches, smoothies coffee drinks, and surprisingly a very wide selection of yummy pastries and bakery treats. Our two coffees and two bagels with cream cheese were great. You can't go wrong at Mellis. read more

This is a quick and easy cafe for a breakfast in downtown San Francisco. I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on a Jalapeño cheddar bagel with an espresso. Please note that their menu says double espresso only. There is some seating in front, but I took it to-go to enjoy at Union Square. This was a great way to start the day in San Francisco, definitely will be back again. read more

This is in one of those corner stores that look generic but is a hidden gem. We stayed at the Parc 55 Hilton and Mellis is located right on the corner. We ordered a two bagel sandwiches, coffee and tea. The bagels went toe to toe with other famous bagel spots. I had an everything with bacon, egg and avocado. Seriously hit the spot! I went back later for a carrot cake and devoured it within minutes. Such a sleeper - so worth the stop! read more

Walking around looking for breakfast. We were going to go to McDonald's and looked across the street at this cute little hole in the wall breakfast and bakery spot. The bakery items were beautiful and the breakfast sandwiches we got were delicious. We got cream cheese, tomato and cucumber on a sesame bagel and a ham and cheese on a croissant. The staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. read more

customer service is good but the problem was just the overall pricing for a bacon egg and cheese sandwich/bagel about $11.60 with taxes and it's tiny and microwaved. For that price id just go inside a diner.Price should be like $8 max read more

The sandwiches were very good. The service was also very good, quick, and helpful. Although the drinks were not very good and the crepe was tough I do think it would've been very good if it was cooked less. But the inside was nice and we were able to sit in. Overall a pretty good place to go. read more

MOLD IN MY GRAPES!!! unbelievable. Also, everything was unbelievably expensive!!!! Good selection, but that doesn't really matter when all of it is sitting out all day in the sun. We got a ham and cheese bagel and it was standard. This is a small nitpick, but the top of the yogurt was dirty. I still ate it. read more

the ladies working there are very sweet and attentive. not to mention for a corner bodega, the food they provide is excellent as well as the coffee for a quick pick me up. thank you guys read more

I went to this little hole in the wall spot since it was close to my hotel. I just needed something to drink and substantial but quick bite to eat so I could do some work. The people behind the counter were not just nice but incredibly sweet and pretty much had a positive answer to anything I said. I asked if they could do a pastrami, egg, and cheese bagel (everything bagel) sandwich and they said yes without batting an eye. It took about 5 minutes for them to whip up. I also got an almond pastry and a vanilla iced latte with oat milk. For being such a small deli style establishment the vanilla iced latte was really good. Pastrami, egg, and cheese was still piping hot when I got back to my hotel and had an amazing flavor throughout. They did not skimp on the cheese like I liked. The pastrami was good but not great but it went well with the sandwich. Almond pastry was full of almond flavor but not really sure what it was because I asked the guy behind the counter to just give me anything he recommended that was sweet. read more

I stayed at a hotel that was around the corner of this place and I thought I'd give it a go. Firstly, I want to note how kind the staff was! Helpful with choosing and informing me on what the pastries were when I almost ordered the wrong one assuming it was something else. Got myself an iced coffee which was quick and tasty and coming from out of town I was shocked with the price of it! Such a cute little corner stop that deserves praise and recognition. read more

Quick, inexpensive, and just what you need for a meal on the go. Breakfast sandwiches & coffees were great.

I stopped by last night to try to order a sandwich at 10:50 and the woman behind the counter told me they were closed because it was 11 o'clock. If that was the case, she should have not been so glued to her phone and closed up. read more

Just cheap bodega with over priced deli food on the street. Don't try on your trip, waste of space in your stomach!!

This little bodega makes way better coffee and breakfast than I could ever have imagined. Great fresh baked goods and excellent sandwiches. Prices were great as well and the coffee was fresh and tasty! Limited seating but we were able to enjoy our breakfast while most grab and go. They've got a lot to offer for such a small place very impressive! Would definitely come back! read more

This shop was within walking distance from my hotel in Union Square and was my go-to coffee shop during my week-long stay in San Francisco. I highly recommend an iced latte with pistachio and an iced matcha with rose. Both phenomenal! Tons of pastries and breakfast items to choose from. The baklava is delicious! read more

I was excited to try this place however egg bagel taste was bland. When asked what vegetables they have cashier had attitude to explain. Said thank you, no response. Charged me for 2 coffees instead of one, when I explained I just ordered 1, cashier tried to argue, then after gave my money back. It was just black coffee for myself, I explained calmly. The portion sizes are good, but there's better places read more

No frills bagel sandwich coffee shop. The sandwich is only $11 and super filling!!! What a great spot to grab a quick easy delicious bite! The Dutch crunch bread is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Is a must get for the perfect sandwich bite. The turkey sandwich I got automatically came with mayo and mustard which if I had known I wouldn't have asked for it but honestly it worked so well with the sandwich I actually enjoyed those condiments! read more

This hands down was one of THE BEST sandwiches I've ever had! The flavor was such a great and perfect combination of fresh and savory. I had intended to go to a place across the street but they were taking forever to let me take an order bc a dinner rush had just come in. I was getting hangry and so I looked up what was nearby and saw Mellis Cafe and it had even higher reviews than the place I was at. I now know why! You can smell the tasty food from down the corner walking up to it. The baked goods also looked fantastic. I had a chicken empanada as well. The person serving me said they were Algerian. It was my first time having Algerian cuisine but I NEED to have more!! read more

I absolutely love this spot, this really is the cutest little bodega in San Francisco. They have bagels, coffee, sandwiches, and much more. Me and my wife got a turkey sandwich on Dutch crunch and the bread was the star it was so fresh and delicious! It's right by the trolly carts if you want to grab a bite before a nice little ride. My daughter ordered the Nutella on a bagel and a water, she was satisfied. It came out to 19$ for everything which is pretty standard for California anyways. They were super friendly, and that's a compliment coming from service in San Francisco lol. They have tables in the front if you like to sit and people watch or just take a break from walking. This place truly is a 5. I'll definitely come back again and again. Next time I'll try the coffee read more

Check your order to make sure they got it right before you walk away. Things are moving fast and communication isn't clear - they'll blame the customer for their mistakes. Food is good though. Desserts are great too. read more

This place is wack. You are all crazy. The bacon egg and cheese bagel was microwaved trash with raw chopped up bacon in it. The guy running the place was like a cabbie with an earbud in his ear. The americanos were horrible and weak. It was clean and the baclava looked nice. Anyway don't go here expecting a good breakfast. read more
