The woman taking my order was very nice and fast getting everything ready. There's tables and chairs inside to eat. We took our food to a nearby park to eat by the water. I got a Garlic bagel with lox, tomato and cream cheese. The amount of smoked salmon I had on this sandwich was unreal. Stacked high and delicious. I would definitely get this sandwich again

I ordered the pizza bagel with cream cheese and the cinnamon crunch bagel--both were excellent. Each had that perfect balance of a slightly chewy exterior with a soft, doughy interior. The cream cheese was applied just right, not the excessive amount you often get elsewhere. At only $7.50 for two bagels, the value is hard to beat. I'm so glad to have finally found my go-to bagel spot and can't wait to come back!

The melted cheese in the middle had me sold. One morning I even had the bagel fresh out of the oven and I think I heard angels sing. Their hash browns are also very yummy! My cousin got the great bambino and he was obsessed with it. I don't eat meat so I didn't try his, but I trust his judgement with food. The service was always good! The morning we got hot bagels from the oven, they said it would be a five minute wait but it was more like twenty. They did apologize, and we weren't in a rush any way (always wait for oven hot bagels). The place has some seating which is nice. Highly recommend Asiago herb bagels from here!

Apathetic, rude blonde woman maybe in her forties, could give a crap about customers. I walked in…read moreat 2:25om I specifically checked online to find they closed at three before I went in. Door is wide open with no screens so the place is FULL of flies feasting on all the food - gross, but I haven't eaten all day and was so hungry. She doesn't say hello, though she gave me a look when I entered, so I'm waiting for her to acknowledge me while she wraps up food to get ready to close. I finally have to say hello to her she just looks doesn't answer, clearly I'm a bother. I said hi do you have any egg everything left - she replies 'we have what's out there' - thanks SO friendly! I said ok I'll have a egg bagel with tuna salad 'we have no tuna' ok I'll have a egg bagel with turkey, she said I don't know if he is still slicing meats. I said oh sorry, I thought you were open till three.. she walks in the back - I guess whoever 'he' was, was indeed still slicing meat she came back and rang up the sandwich - I live down the block..I open a hard crusty, old bagel with turkey - I'm most definitely a NY Bagel snob but I can suck up a crappy bagel if need be but this was so hard I might break a veneer - no thanks, I ended up throwing the bagel out and just ate some turkey.. Trust me, I don't make up reviews, don't waste your money - there are so many better places that WANT your business. The only reason I gave two stars is that 'he' sliced the turkey for me and it was not skimpy so I was able to eat some turkey.
