For food, we shared the fig and Brie toast and the Standard Sandwich, which came with cheesy eggs -- and you really can't go wrong with cheesy eggs for breakfast. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience at Gryphon Cafe. The food and drinks were great, the atmosphere was welcoming, and there was plenty of space to sit. Definitely worth checking out if you're in West Chester!

The kicker is that after all that waiting, I bite into my sandwich to be surprised with the crunch of broken egg shells. Yuck!

Used to come here all the time. The bagels are good, but I can't bring myself to support this business any longer. If you want to eat here: The wife of the owner, Valerie, is very kind, funny, and efficient. Rob, the owner, on the other hand, did not create a comfortable environment. He would often talk down to his wife and the other employees, sometimes swearing and yelling, making a scene in front of customers. They microwaved the meats and eggs there, which wasn't the best. I had a friend who worked here, who said that they had to cook them in disposable styrofoam bowls, which often melted into the egg. Unrelated but also concerning, I saw two instances where a bagel fell onto the floor, and it was scooped up and thrown back into the basket for sale. If you want to work here: (According to my friend), Rob started out as a fair boss, and it was a pretty good job, as long as you can handle early shifts. You can keep tips too. His main issue was Rob's lack of flexibility for student workers. He does not understand or accept sick days, nor mandatory college conflicts, even if told far in advance. If he's in a bad mood or overtired, you can be sure he'll take it out on you or other employees, regardless of whether or not customers are present. He is also inconsistent with what he wants with each sandwich. He'll tell you to build a sandwich one way, then give different instructions the next day. This would be fine, except he got mad when my friend asked for clarification, but also got mad when the sandwich wasn't "done right." He kept the job for as long as he could because he needed the money. If you can handle miscommunications, inflexibility, and borderline verbal abuse, apparently it pays well. In short: eating here won't leave you terribly disappointed. Bagels are fresh, everything tastes good (even though the place apparently microwaves everything). If you're looking for a job near campus, though, keep looking. Not worth the stress. read more

I must agree with Katie B.'s review. I ordered a bacon, egg & cheese on a bagel and was so disappointed, I could not even eat it. The egg was bland, the bacon was all clumped together and on 1 side of the bagel; cheese barely melted. read more

A wonderfully fluffy bagel, toasted perfectly, with manifold flavors garnishing its top, and richly luscious cream cheese, with real bacon (not bits or soy) spread throughout.

I waited a bit in line because the customer in front of me was taking a while with a flying solo barista. Another barista noticed, and stepped in on the second register. Order was placed and everything came out within minutes. This turnaround is what I expect for a very uninvolved order. Get me out the door!!! They added a few sitting tables in addition to the awkwardly installed fixed bar stools around the perimeter bar. I wish they'd get rid of those. They're proportioned for people with the anatomy akin to NBA basketball players. As I was heading out, the parking lot was totally full and another car was circling about for a spot. The bagels themselves were fine, and not offensive by any means. I'd eat them again. I don't think they're out of this local Western Philly burbs' world special though... My taste buds didn't see the fuss and expectations set for this place by the business, and if this is how NYC bagels taste, I'd go to NYC now. Get it? Tasted like more like a different kind of NYS (state)...Wegmans bagels on their best days. Never the less, it's GOOD to have a bakery that focuses on bagels in PXV's rotation, versus having to head to Chesterbrook or the Main Line for a bagel. Hope they'll continue to improve their craft within the confines of local traditions and make locals see what they're missing without a NY-style bagelry around. With current state right now...not missing much. Edit: Appreciate the business's response and openness to continuous improvement. At this juncture, there wasn't anything WRONG (bagel burnt, not enough shmear, bagel odd, etc) with the bagels I recently purchased, but there isn't anything SPECIAL worth all of the commotion, either. The special is what the business was promising and setting expectations for. Up to the biz to bring their expertise here as table stakes operational issues are ironed out. Not sure what to ask for or provide feedback on. If shooting to bring NY style bagels, go to industry events or bagelries that offer teaching extensions to cross train/knowledge share. Look for mentorship.
