    Southern Tradition with Bacon on a Jalapeño Cheddar Bagel + cream cheese added
    John L.

    Best bagels in the area hands down. Great selection and super friendly owners. Go early if you want Onion!

    Super cozy little shop! The ladies at the shop were super patient as I decided what to get and they helped give suggestions. I love lox bagels and the sandwich really hit after volunteering. I do wish the bagel was toastier tho, but i'm sure I could ask for extra toast next time.

    Souther tradition with Asiago bagel

    Best bagels around!!! They're fluffy and delicious and make amazing breakfast sandwiches. Have a large variety but make sure to get there early before your favorite flavor is gone.

    Muffins and bagels oh my!

    *Iced matcha latte with oatmilk unsweetened - had a nice hue, oddly couldn't really taste the…read morematcha, the oatmilk is on the sweeter than I'd prefer *Iced latte with oatmilk - the beans have pleasant fruity notes, but again the oatmilk is too sweet so it threw it off a bit for me. I walked in and said hi to the crew, no one said anything (wondered if I was not loud enough? ) Took no joke 15 min to finally get my drinks I was on the run and just passing through Aurora so i was somewhat inpatient. I like the industrial vibe with a plenty of natural light and seating options. It's a place conducive for computer work or a social meet up. Drinks are average.

    Came here with my family when we were in the area today as my sister recommended it! I was excited…read moreto see they had a bunch of in-house made syrups which is a coffee shop green flag for me. I got a decaf espresso tonic which was seasonal and had orange and mint. My sister had a lemonade, my mom had a chai, my dad had black tea, and my brother in law had a strawberry matcha. My son got a butter croissant which he was kind enough to share some with us haha. They brought our drinks out to us which was nice! Everything we got was delivered fairly quickly and was SO good, we all really enjoyed our drinks. Nice vibes in here too. And clean bathrooms. Glad I got to try it!

    Breakfast was excellent, service was great, if you're looking for a great breakfast give it a go.read more

    Terrible. Go elsewhere or you'll be sorry!…read more I was in the area early one morning with my mom and sister so we decided to go for breakfast. I wanted to go to Cracker Barrel, but my sister wanted to try something new so we ended up at this restaurant. There was only one other patron eating when we arrived. Looking back, that should have been our first clue that this wasn't the place to be. Our server/hostess was nice but she literally only took order and brought us our food. I opted for the hash browns, turkey bacon, scrambled eggs and toast. First off, the toast was Texas Toast which was odd... it was much too thick, but it didn't matter because it was burnt. They also didn't put butter on it right when it came out of the toaster so it was dry and cold upon arrival to the table. The hash browns had no flavor, but the ketchup and salt/pepper helped make them edible. The eggs were okay as well, but the turkey bacon was gross. It tasted like rubber. I have no idea what brand it was, but it was obviously some cheap off brand. The orange juice was so bitter that I had to exchange it was apple juice. My mom had hash browns, eggs, sausage and pancakes. She didn't care for her food much either. My sister had the corned beef hash, eggs, hash browns, and toast. She loved the corned beef hash and thought everything else was okay. Ultimately, she agreed that we should have gone elsewhere. The restaurant was clean and quiet except for the noise from the television. The bill was about $50 for the three of us. The quality of the food is obviously lower tier. IHOP would've been a better choice and that's not even a place I'd ever even consider visiting.
