Good for GF - Edit
I have had a couple of baked goods from Melinda's and they are fine. They do have a good number of vegan options and I would recommend it if you're GF. If you aren't GF, go somewhere else (search out Sweet Bean Bakery if you want some legit delicious vegan pastries). Everything I've had here is super dense compared to regular breads and bakery items.

Best and only organic, vegan, gluten-free croissants & morning buns I could find in the Bay - Edit
Though not all items are vegan, they make the best vegan morning buns, everything bagels, buttery and flaky almond bearclaws (croissant-like) and chocolate croissants. And I've tried all the gluten-free bakeries in the Bay!
Read moreThey're so good I wish I could drive from SF to eat them all the time.
Their sourdough bread is way more affordable than other bakeries. And when I special ordered, they kindly put less icing so it could be lower-sugar.
And they let me save trees by putting their food in my own container. California has been allowing customers to put food in their own containers (leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB619)

Amazing vegan options - Edit
I have never written a review but I had to for this place! They were so so warm and welcoming and willing/happy/able to explain all their vegan options. Everything is gluten free too. The puff pastry sandwiches (vegan) are really crispy and rich and I’ve never had anything vegan and gluten free that was like this. I’d totally recommend and will absolutely be going back.
