    Iced latte
    Sharon M.

    We ordered a: 1. Bacon egg & cheese on an everything bagel, 2. Cinnamon raisin bagel w/ honey maple cream cheese, 3. Iced latte, and 4. Chai ! The BEC is a classic - can't go wrong w/ it! The everything bagel was good too, except maybe a little dry. The cinnamon raisin bagel + honey maple though? Fabulous combination! The iced latte was good (strong coffee flavor). The chai could've been better though (they unfortunately teabagged us). Fast service (walk in, walk out, but also space to sit). Highly recommend checking out this McLean classic!

    Walking into this bagel deli is like walking into 1995 and I love it. It's one of the few bagel places in the DMV that has rye seeded bagels and half plain/half pumpernickel bagels. Honestly, these aren't my favorite bagels in the area but the sandwich fixings they put on them are what makes this a great place. Their bagels are more dense like a Montreal bagel so that is why I gave them 4 stars instead of 5. I am a fan of the eggwich sandwiches because the eggs are super fluffy and all of the ingredients are fresh. They are generous with the portions sizes so it's a very filling breakfast or lunch. Cream cheeses: they have a nice assortment of sweet and savory cream cheeses . Also, I like that they don't offer too many sweet bagel flavors. I'm a bagel classicist- plain, sesame, everything, rye, pumpernickel, cinnamon raisin and egg are my bagel pantheon. Other menu items: they offer focaccia sandwiches, deli sandwiches and baked pastries which all look good from what I observed from others orders. Ambiance: it's not a big place with lots of small banquettes and 4 top tables. It feels very retro 90s with the green and white floor and flat tambour. No one is hanging out with a laptop here which is nice. Most people get their brown bag order and immediately sit at a table to tuck in. The line can get long at busy times but it's worth it. Great place when you want to just have a yummy sandwich and think of simpler times.

    Chesapeake will always have a spot in my heart as someone from McLean. It's an iconic spot and has been for my entire life. The bagels are always well made, but the prices have really increased in the past few years. It's really hard to get a bagel that has anything more than cream cheese on it for less than 7 dollars. Still a vibe and a nice spot though

    Here's a review from a self-proclaimed bagel snob (have the Long Island background to back this up): The bagel itself was decently sized which I appreciate. There was a lot of egg which was good. Bacon was crispy and nice. Sadly the bagel lacked anything special. It was all just decent and plain. I will continue my search for a decent bagel in the DMV. So far it's been nothing but strike outs on this endeavor. Nevertheless I will persist.

    I finally found a an amazing bagel shop in McLean, Virginia!!! The staff are always very hard-working and pleasant when taking orders. There are so many different fresh bagels to choose from every day. Come check out Chesapeake bagel bakery and Mclean. You will not be disappointed; this place is an awesome find!

This location was very busy on a Sunday morning, but we only had a short wait to get our food.

The interior has its signature pastel pink, yellow and blue colors, with a few tables for seating. I ordered immediately upon arrival and waited about 5-10 minutes for my order. THE ROYAL PALM - 12 The salmon lox is my go-to bagel order, and this is their version of it. Instead of an everything bagel, I swapped it with a cheddar bagel. Unfortunately, the bagel was a bit stale and hard to chew, which was disappointing. On the bright side, there was a good amount of smoked salmon. The onions weren't very pungent but added a nice crisp texture. I requested light cream cheese, but it wasn't spread evenly -- a lot of it was just stuck in the hole of the bagel. All in all, I wasn't particularly impressed with the quality of the bagel today. If I return, I really should encourage myself to try a different bagel other than the salmon lox to see what's out there. They also have a few melts on the menu that looked interesting.

They have different types of baked goods and loaves that you can purchase along with sandwiches and your usually coffees. This is connected to a restaurant right next door, and so it's a quick in and out if you're in a rush. Or if you want to sit around and have your baked good and then leave, there's seating as well.

The Avocado Toast with egg was good, but nothing particularly special. I enjoyed the English Sourdough bread and bought a loaf of it. We devoured the hand-cut fries. The 4 bite-size Ozzie Rolls were fun to try. The Chocolate Espresso Chew Cookie was moist and fudgey, sweet ending to our meal! Plain Croissant was standard. The Pink Drink with housemade syrup, coconut milk and strawberries was refreshing and tasty. It was my pick from the Strawberry Lemonade and Dragon fruit Lemonade. The Lemonades were a bit too sweet. I ordered the food to dine in and it was packaged to go. I wish the food could be prepared for dining in. It's a pet peeve of mine to see all of the grease oozing out of fries in a brown bag. There were also Styrofoam plates and plastic straws, wish there were more environmental-friendly products. Might be back for brunch if there's a dine-in option.

My daughter loves the chocolate croissants, cookies and flourless brownies, as I do the standard croissant. My review was more out of disappointment as I was excited to and looking forward to joining the club. And I was frustrated at my inability to join the club. What makes my updated review 4 stars. We do love the pastry items we get, when I ever order a pastry they always grab them from the fresh pastries from the rack and not the ones on display to give the customer the best experience. As for the latte, as I saw in other reviews and have noticed myself, and often in the times I have went, notice new employees on a few times. The person who helped me and made my lattes was very polite and helpful, she may be new to lattes, practice makes perfect. I use to drink lattes almost daily and have not had one in a few years and was super excited to have a latte again. Also walking in I noticed they remodeled and change the configuration of the counter to allow for a nice indoor seating area. Lastly I have heard of My Dads Chips and had wanted to find a place that had them. I have bought these chips here and these are now my family's favorite chips and we order them by the box from My Dads Chips. It's great to see restaurants using and supporting local businesses which is another reason I like coming to Fresh Baguette. I look forward to my next time coming here. I do recommend this place. -------- Went in today and was going to get lattes so thought I would join the club. Was happy to see first month free. I tried for over 30 minute. To join using two payment methods and app attempts were denied. I mentioned to employee I had been trying to join the club but all morning been getting a whoops subscription purchase failed on two cards. She said she would give me the discount and ordered an ice latte and hot latte. The speed the lattes were made I found surprising. As a person who drinks a lot of lattes I know it's a process that takes 1-2 min per latte. She had both done in 2 min. I didn't see if she used a milk frother or not. When o left I opened my latte and it had something o would not consider froth, it had large bubbles and had no smoothness. I asked for both lattes to have vanilla. She only did the iced with vanilla. The Iced latte, being in a clear container you could see the milk on the bottom it came up about half way. It was not mixed and all you could taste was the milk with a hint of vanilla. I would compare the hot latte to one that you can make in an office coffee machine that has packets. It was very weak. Your pastries are good but my god I am glad that I didn't join the club even if the first month is free. On top of that even though she said she would give me the discount, she charged me full price. I would have complained but I have a lot of fatigue as I have stage iv cancer and just completed 39 radiation sessions. Will be back for pasties and desserts, but your coffee products with the experience I had today was vending machine quality.
