A new flavor has FALLen 🍂 🍎

Meet Apple Cinnamon, a returning seasonal scoop inspired by one of our beloved Creamery classics: Ricanelas. Creamy cinnamon ice cream is studded with soft, caramelly apple bites for a scoop that tastes like a true San Francisco fall. 🍦

An apple a day, Creamery style! 🍎

Malted Vanilla has entered its farewell era 🥺

One of your favorite limited-time flavors is heading out soon to make room for our holiday flavors.

This creamy, malty scoop with peanut brittle and milk chocolate has had quite the run, and we’re going to miss seeing that little face in the case. 😭

If Malted Vanilla has a special place in your heart, now’s the time to get one more scoop before it’s gone. 💔

P.S. Malted Vanilla isn’t the only one saying goodbye! Strawberry Swirl and Pistachio Raspberry Celebration are also here for a limited time, time to stock up!

🥣 A cozy curried veggie soup, alongside cheese bites, caramelized pecans, and peak-season apples.

🧀 An elevated take on Lunchables, stacking maple ham, vintage Cheddar, and rosemary crackers, along with lunchbox peppers.

🥗 A cool bean salad (inspired by , of course!), tossing together chickpeas, veggies, salami, and pepperoncini.

🌯 Chicken Caesar wraps, rolling up grilled lemon chicken, little gems, and a sprinkle of Parm.

🧆 A chubby turkey meatball that plops perfectly into a compartment, along with cukes and pita chips for dunking in dip.

Some Bi-Rite stories span generations. ❤️

Antonio joined Bi-Rite in December 2007 as a dishwasher at 18th St. Nearly 19 years later, he still enjoys his work at Bi-Rite Market and couldn’t imagine himself anywhere else. Now our Butcher Department Manager at Polk St., he’s one of the many team members who have helped shape Bi-Rite along the way.

Food has always been a big part of Antonio's life. Growing up in Honduras, his mom cooked for their community, and Antonio helped her sell tamales on the school bus. Today, he says, “I love working with food,” and his passion for it has taken him from the dish pit to the butcher department, where he now enjoys sharing what he's learned.

Now, Antonio gets to share his experience a little closer to home: his son, Jefferson, joined the Bi-Rite team three months ago as a dishwasher at 18th St., and he's already excited to grow within the company. Did you know that Bi-Rite hires about 90% of manager positions from within?!

“I am really happy that my kid has the potential to go up and learn.”

This National Food Service Workers Day, we're celebrating Antonio and the rest of our amazing staff who bring their skills, stories, and passion for food to Bi-Rite every day. We’re grateful to have each and every one of them on our teams, from our Markets to our ice cream scoopers to our chefs in the commissary kitchen.

If you see Antonio at Polk Street, ask him about his favorite way to cook skirt steak. He’ll be happy to share his tips with you! 😉

You may think of pumpkin spice as basic, but we beg to differ 🎃🍦

Especially when it comes with pumpkin cheesecake ice cream, housemade graham crackers, and warm fall spices.

A seasonal favorite is back: Pumpkin Cheesecake with Graham Crackers. Consider this your official invitation to embrace your pumpkin spice era. 🍂

Pumpkin season is officially here. We’ll see you at the Creamery. 👀

Dear Salted Caramel,

Where do we even begin? 💌

You’ve been with us since day one, and somehow, 20 years later, we’re still falling for you every day. It’s no wonder you are so popular, with that creamy caramel richness and that perfect hit of sea salt. It’s honestly embarrassing how much we love you. 🍦

You’ve seen us through two decades of scoops, celebrations, and countless happy customers. We hope you know just how special you are to us.

Forever yours,
Bi-Rite Creamery 🩷

Happy Chef Appreciation Week to the incredible team behind so much of the food you know and love at Bi-Rite. 👨‍🍳💚

Behind every housemade meal in our Markets, every catering spread, every freshly baked cookie, and every pint of ice cream packed by hand is a team of talented chefs, bakers, cooks, and kitchen crew bringing it all to life.

From developing new recipes and preparing ingredients to cooking, baking, packing, and putting the finishing touches on every dish, so much care and craft goes into the food that makes its way from our kitchen to your table.

Some have been part of the Bi-Rite family for decades, and together they bring an incredible amount of skill, dedication, and heart to what they do every day. Their commitment to making truly delicious food is a big part of how we deliver on our Certified Delicious promise to our guests.

This Chef Appreciation Week, we’re celebrating all of them. Thank you to our entire Commissary Kitchen team for everything you do.

Want to know what our Catering team has been working on for the past 18 months!?

Today, we’re beyond excited to announce that (almost) all our Catering packaging is now compostable! 🎉

From our platters and bowls to the tape and serveware, we’ve been carefully testing options that meet our food safety and presentation standards while creating less waste.

And we have more amazing Catering news: Bi-Rite Catering is now available on Sundays, too! That means gatherings, celebrations, brunches, and last-minute hosting just got a whole lot easier, 7 days a week! 🥗

Thanks for joining us on our journey to become a Zero Waste company. 💚

Our newest sundae is bananas! Or shall we say, Coco Bananas 😋🍌

Meet Coco Bananas, the winner of our guest sundae contest, inspired by the creator’s favorite banana and coconut cake recipes. After a very delicious round of judging by our pastry chef team, Coco Bananas came out on top! Three scoops of Roasted Banana get topped with toasted coconut, whipped cream, Marcona almonds, and of course, caramelized banana.

Coconut + banana = a pretty a-peel-ing combination, if you ask us. 🥥🍌

We loved seeing all your sundae creations and getting to turn one of them into the real thing. Come by the Creamery and give Coco Bananas a try!

What’s up, Jimmy Nardello! This Italian-American pepper has a fun name and a devoted fan following. The peppers are super sweet, so they don’t pack any heat and char gorgeously. Did you know that they’re named after Jimmy Nardello, whose family brought the seeds from Italy and helped preserve this heirloom variety for generations? A quick and easy way to get a taste of their delightful heritage is to grill them, pile them on top of burrata, and scatter with anchovies, parsley, and lemon zest. Just dig in with crusty bread.
