The Mission District in San Francisco is a worthwhile trip solely for a taste of the Reuben Sandwich –a mouthwatering creation of house-cured pastrami, sauerkraut and swiss cheese on rye – at Wise Sons Jewish Deli. But even the exceptionally lazy can experience some of this deli’s outstanding Jewish eats at Wise Sons’ other outposts, within the Contemporary Jewish Museum and the Ferry Plaza’s Farmer’s Market.

With a menu rich in deli classics, from dill pickles and corned beef to smoked trout salad and bottomless drip coffee, Wise Sons Jewish Deli is a much-loved choice for breakfast and brunch. After all, what’s not to love about pillow-soft scrambled eggs with sustainable (for that extra feel-good factor) smoked salmon, and a bialy with rich cream cheese, washed down with a mimosa? But with a selection of wines and beer on tap, and later opening hours six days a week, the dinner service at Wise Sons Jewish Deli attracts the punters in droves, too.
