Mornings here start with sunlight on old tile floors and the scent of bread cooling behind glass, while conversations drift between the counter and sidewalk. The lineup shifts from brisk takeout orders to folks pausing with a cup or plate, all under the soft clang of pans behind the kitchen door.

What to Expect:

    🥪 Big, brassy sandwiches on housemade bread—Reuben, pastrami, turkey, and more
    🍳 Breakfast classics and creative toasts, often packed until early afternoon
    🥦 Fridge case with market salads, pickles, and housemade pantry items
    🍪 Baked goods and desserts—think pistachio cookies, cakes, sourdough, and rotating pastries
    ☕ Mud coffee and strong cortados to fuel market wanderers

Important Information:

    ✔ Counter service only; order at the register
    ✔ No reservations—walk-ins move quickly but peak times are packed
    ✔ Wheelchair access is tight; entry has a step and space inside is narrow
    ✔ Indoor and seasonal outdoor seating; pet friendly

Haley's Pick 🍽️

You probably know her as @milehighandhungry. Each week, Haley shares the one place she’s obsessed with right now. From hidden gems to hot new openings, if she picks it, it’s worth the hype.

Haley's Review of Riot BBQ
Riot BBQ on South Delaware feels like a backyard cookout run by a Top Chef, because it is. Chef Manny Barella and pitmaster Patrick Klaiber have teamed up to blend Monterrey flavors with Texas-style smoke, and the results are seriously craveable.

The brisket steals the show: tender, deeply smoky, and finished with Barella’s bold spice rub. Get it solo or wrapped in buttery Raquelita tortillas. The pulled pork brings heat with ancho, guajillo, and morita chiles, and the al pastor ribs are sticky, sweet, and slightly charred in all the right ways.

Even the sides are insanely good! Think crunchy pepita-macha slaw and banana pudding served in a jar that tastes just like childhood (but better). Every bite feels intentional.

It’s barbecue with heart, history, and just the right amount of heat. Riot BBQ isn’t just a meal, it’s a moment worth lining up for.

Local Insights

🥯 Bread Drop: Fresh sourdough usually hits the shelf late morning—ask what just came out for the softest loaf.

🥚 Early Risers: Weekends line up fast after 9:30 AM; come before 9 or close to 2 for quicker counter service.

🧃 Pantry Finds: Don’t skip the fridge case—pickled eggs, kraut, and in-house condiments are real standouts for market shoppers.

🐕 Dog Friendly: Pups are welcome at the sidewalk tables, and staff usually have water bowls on hand.

What folks are saying

Based on the 50 most recent Google reviews
Guests are pulled in by the bakery’s homemade bread, inventive sandwiches, and a display of cakes and cookies that rarely last the day. Fast counter service and the line out the door speak to the popularity, especially at peak brunch hours. Baked goods and coffee are highly praised, and visitors often grab a loaf or treats to go. Service can feel brisk or unfriendly at times, and large groups may feel unwelcome in the tight quarters. Still, most agree Rosie General offers fresh, memorable food that draws locals and visitors alike.
