    A nice breakfast bagel sandwich for a reasonable price. Stopped by on a Saturday late morning and it wasn't busy. The ambiance of the neighborhood bodega made it feel nice and homey. I ordered the B&B classic with bacon and it was ready pretty fast. It was loaded with egg, which I love in a breakfast sandwich. The bagel was nicely toasted, and there was a good amount of bacon in it. I'd come back here to try other things on the menu, since it seems like they have a wide array of different sandwich types.

    CHOPPED CHEESE

    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.

    Soooo excited when I heard there was a chopped cheese sandwich shop in the city. It's set up like a liquor store, similar to the bodegas in NYC where you can order a chopped cheese. The sandwich was good, but not exactly the same as NYC, it has a bit of a West Coast twist with lettuce and tomatoes. The bread could be better, and my only real complaint is the price. At $20 it's a bit steep; I wish the sandwich was bigger for that price. I can't say much about the service since you order at the cashier. Overall, it's a solid sandwich spot if you're in the area. There are a few picnic benches outside where you can enjoy your sandwich.

    New bodega style corner store that has sandwiches, wine, beer on tap, coffee, sandwiches and smoothies! Smoothies were amazing, very fresh. I'd prefer the Wild Berry over Palmetto berry drinks. The chopped cheese was a 10/10 ($19) I'll definitely be back when I feel like splurging. The sizes for both are big enough to share. Outdoor seating is super convenient if you're with a group of friends. *Catering is also offered*

    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.

    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.

    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 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!

    DO NOT PAY FOR DELIVERY…read more We paid extra to have our order delivered to our hotel and used the restaurant's order-ahead option. We scheduled the delivery for 9:20 a.m., but by 8:40 a.m. the app showed it had already been delivered. The problem? There was no food at our hotel room. I tried contacting the delivery driver by text, but never received a response. It was incredibly frustrating, especially after leaving a generous tip. We later found out the driver had left the food at the hotel but never told the front desk which room it was for, even though they had all of the delivery information. As a result, our food just sat there until we eventually had to go down and get it ourselves. In the end, I paid for a delivery service that I never actually received. Instead of enjoying the convenience we paid for, we had to track down our own order. Based on this experience, I would not recommend paying for delivery. If you're ordering from this restaurant, save your money and pick it up yourself. I paid for a service, but I did not receive what I paid for. Then to make it worse the breakfast sandwich was just OK. Nothing to write home to mom about. To say the least we will not be ordering her again and would not recommend this restaurant.

It seems like there's also an upstairs but did not get the chance to check it out. I got an iced latte with their almond macadamia milk, and they're also so nice to do complimentary cold brew! So we got an extra drink for free. Trying the iced latte, it was pretty disappointing lol. I thought it would be similar to like a Hawaiian style latte with macadamia milk, but it was a lot lighter than I thought. It was definitely very nutty, but it also just tasted like water down latte. Honestly not much going on with the drink, but it does taste lighter in general. Crazy have to pay $1.50 more to add on this milk. Overall, its alright. I do like the natural lighting coming into the shop, but nothing too special.

We traveled from San Diego to San Francisco, spent time in Santa Cruz, and made our way back down the coast, trying several highly rated coffee shops along the way. While we had some excellent coffee, The Coffee Movement was our favorite. I ordered the seasonal apricot-orange latte, and it was absolutely incredible. I honestly could have had five of them (not that I should have!). It was perfectly balanced, unique, and one of those drinks you keep thinking about long after you leave. We also grabbed a muffin that was just as delicious. The shop has a cool, low-key vibe while still delivering exceptional quality. Parking took a little patience, but it was well worth it. If you're a coffee lover, this place is a must-visit. The Coffee Movement absolutely nailed it, and it's a spot we'll make a point to return to whenever we're in the area.
