Sandwiches, burritos, and coffee with local ingredients
"This cozy little neighborhood spot has been a Buckman standby for more than a decade, with customers stopping in to enjoy its sandwiches, burritos, and coffee. There’s no real bad move at Meat Cheese Bread, which goes far beyond its name with all kinds of hot and cold vegetarian sandwiches, often changing seasonally. Still, basics like a turkey with bacon, fontina, and lettuce on sourdough can always be found. Its breakfast burritos are also a major hit." - Alex Frane
"While the compact and rustic counter shop is known primarily for its somewhat eponymous sandwiches, Meat Cheese Bread is a hot spot for its breakfast burritos in the mornings. The burritos are pretty straight-forward here, with scrambled eggs, hash browns, a green chile salsa, and cheddar, but the high-quality ingredients and lovely charred tortilla, plus the relatively reasonable size and portability, make it a popular choice for those in the neighborhood. For those who like a meatier morning meal, the best move is to add bacon, which is thick-cut and sourced from local purveyors." - Ben Coleman
"When a restaurant’s name is the exact description of an item in question, it’s generally safe to assume it makes that product well. This instinct will be rewarded at Meat Cheese Bread, a cozy hole-in-the-wall in the sleepy Buckman neighborhood, which offers sandwiches and breakfast daily. The steak, egg, and cheese is a standout for its lovingly smoked meat and delicate, fluffy bun, as is the ham sandwich which is transformed into a breakfast special by adding an egg for $2. Stop in or call ahead for orders." - Ben Coleman
