    Bacon Bacon, Egg, and Cheese on Everything bagel
    Evelyn M.

    The bagel was really good. I got the bacon egg and cheese and for how filling it was it was priced pretty fairly. The shop is pretty unassuming when you look at it, but it's tasty. Service is fast and really nice.

    I found this bagel shop walking near south street Amtrak stop, and decided to go in to get me a bagel. Quality has gone downhill since the last time I ate from here two months ago. I ordered a toasted bagel with creamcheese and my friend got egg and cheese on bagel. We waited about 15 minutes with three other people in front of us - fine, I understand it's busy during lunch time. However, upon receiving our order, the order was such a disappointment. My bagel wasn't toasted, was small, and was just ok. My friend's sandwich looked premade. He tossed half of it because it tasted like plastic and wasn't even warm. He said the eggs were the most disgusting thing. I would love to like this place, but overall can't justify ever paying $17 for two bagels ever again. And to think some of their bagel sandwiches go up to close to $20! I just think for the price, the quality is no longer there The staff were nasty and didn't care about customers coming in to the store. You're better off getting something from Dunkin' Donuts!!

    Plain bagel with butter
    Francesca L.

    Quick service which is surprising given how busy they are with corporate orders. $5 for a plain bagel seems expensive and it certainly is for how chewy the bagel is and how little butter they put on it. Disappointing. They also didn't cut the bagel- I had to rip it in half as you can see in the photo. Decent location. Close to south station and plenty of offices. Looked clean inside but nothing special in the interior.

    Bacon, Egg, and Cheese

    For what it is, this bagel place gets the job done. Now getting into it, don't get the bagel toasted, leave it how it is so you can have a doughy, good experience. The egg and cheese were great but they really feel short with the microwaved bacon. Flavorless and small. The service was quick and the people were friendly, the bagels are made in house and are delicious. I can't give it more than three stars because of how much the bacon held it back.

The blueberry bagel I had that day was absolutely superb, probably the best blueberry bagel I've ever had in Boston. A few days later, I craved that same blueberry bagel and made the trip back, which is a considerable drive for me. Upon arrival, I was told that blueberry bagels are not offered every day and are only available on Thursdays. I returned the following Thursday, but the experience was very different. I got blueberry, poppy, and a few other bagels to take home. Unfortunately, all of them were absolutely disappointing. They tasted extremely off and very different from the blueberry bagel I had previously. At home, my family ate about half of what we purchased, but none of us had any desire to finish the rest. Overall, the experience was unpleasant, and the bagels were not enjoyable at all. The blueberry bagel from my first visit looked and tasted amazing and was completely different in quality from what I received on my second visit. On top of that, the person behind the counter seemed careless with hygiene, touching the screen, bagels, and other surfaces without any apparent attention to cleanliness. It felt like a completely different place compared to my first visit just a couple of weeks earlier. Overall, I'm extremely disappointed.

They have free wifi so if you come during slower hours, it's a convenient spot for studying. Despite the usual long lines, the staff are always friendly & efficient. I highly recommend their Classic Lox! They always load up their fresh bagels with generous amounts of add-ins. Definitely getting your moneys worth. If you're feeling experimental, their menu has a ton of other tasty options. Their Pesto Turkey is also a delicious choice. Cannot recommend them enough.

Texturewise, an airier, less-dense bagel, closer to Bagelsaurus consistency than Rosenfeld's or Rebelle consistency. -- Coffee: Very good. Was hoping to buy more bagels to take home for further exploration, but on weekends they have a limit of 1. Even though it doesn't make my greater Boston top 5, Black Sheep has its charm and is destined for a return visit. To be continued and I'm hoping to bump up the score.
