"The bike theme runs deep at this Richmond cafe—but you don’t need to ride up to this all-day spot on two wheels to enjoy it. There are espresso drinks and pastries for a quick refuel before a walk in Golden Gate Park, plus great breakfast plates and wraps filled with fried chicken or hummus and vegetables. The sleeper hit is their tuna melt, a saucy and slightly sweet panini that’s designed to be taken away and eaten during a sunny lunch. Food Rundown photo credit: Julia Chen The Ullrich Tuna Melt Charred grill marks, salty-sweet tuna salad, and a swipe of dijon—Velo Rouge keeps it classic with their tuna melt, and the commitment to simplicity pays off. This sandwich is fantastic, and it also comes with a generous side salad. Merckx Wrap The components of this wrap—fried chicken, red onion, and mixed greens—are great on their own, but it's overdressed and ends up tasting mostly like honey mustard." - Julia Chen
