    A delicious bagel that should've been cut
    Alexxa S.

    I came to get a bagel for a friend and I to share. I requested it be cut in half. It was not. Small, I know but I'd rather not eat then have someone's hands all over my food to cut the bagel in half after I've left thinking I had a cut one already. Just annoying. Hoping this review can serve as a reminder to cut the sandwhich when requested! It's not for funsies I swear

    Feeling like Cheers, where everyone knows your name!

    I have been coming here since I moved to Fairfield, about 3 years now. At first, they were pretty slow. Things have improved so much and the employees hustle to get food out. Food is always correct and delish. I'm a regular on Saturdays, to a point they know my name now. Be kind to workers, dealing with the public ain't easy!

    I stopped in to take advantage of a bday offer from their rewards program. When I arrived I was the only person there, with 2 employees. I was not greeted as they were talking and it took them a bit to acknowledge me. When they did it seemed as if I was a bother to them. They took my order and was surprised it took a bit just to make a bagel with cream cheese. The food was ok. This location has a spacious dining room, although at the time of my visit it was closed. They also have a small outside patio, as well as a drive thru. I love this brand, but this location lacks on customer service.

    Are they open for walk in? They seem to awesome that they were with this sign in the entrance!

    I went on a Saturday morning. The drive through was long But a few customers in the restaurant I almost did not go in because of this sign as I entered So I asked what appeared to be the person in charge can I order from the App. Instead of saying, we can take your order now .. she said yes Then people came in and ordered, I asked about my order and they said the set time because I ordered on the app I said,the sign says drive through for app because of short staffing The the workers said,, that sign is not in front of the store! I said the sign is in the entrance of the restaurant! The number of peple that same after me looked and the sign and walked away, got intheir care or went to the register and said ... can I order here! Ridiculous workers ... move the sign or turn it around The sign read: Due to lack of staffing We are drive through only

    The bagel with a chunk of unspread butter

    Bagels good but someone tell me why i waited ALMOST AN HOUR for a single bagel??? Like i ordered a bagel with cream cheese and it took a good 45 minutes to get it. I would understand if they were making these bagel from scratch after I ordered it but all they had to do was take it out of the display rack, heat it up, and put a reasonable amount of cream cheese on. One of my friends got a huge amount of cream cheese that was squirting out the sides and the other got barely any and then the other friend got a single chunk of BUTTER in the middle. Like they just didn't spread it out?? And then my friends mom ordered a bagel sandwich with an egg and they just didn't out an egg on it. Like what how do you forget that??

    "Can I take your order". No "good morning" or even "hello". But waS a decent tone. Not a fan of people talking to it they co workers (like background noise) when they should hit a mute button first but oKay. She found two of the last packets oF Splenda that they had. Not a good mental picture of adequate mgmt ordering food supplies but another okay. My check in photo of the Lox said no caper disappointing but their were three rolling around in the tray. Forgot to show how they stick better in the cream cheese. Lox was not out on evenly and way too much. Red onion was big coils mostly off the sandwich. Toasted Sesame bagel was very good for its size and density but agin was overpowered by too much Lox, onion and not enough capers. Better than McDonalds. Young, new girl handed food was timid but nice and thanked me for coming. Better but would have liked that with have a great day. And a smile. No one lives up to the Chik Fil A service standard. People crave it and will come back for it. Hint hint hint.

    Foods very good! Drive through line takes awhile to get through! If you in a hurry should probably go inside instead

    Slow service. Bagels are over cooked and burnt with very little taste. Go to Panera instead. Worst bagel I have eaten. Blech

    We stopped for a quick brunch. I ordered a bagel, with an egg, and a side of fresh fruit…read more Let me tell you, the freshly made, warm, "everything" bagel was so tender! The cream cheese spread easily and the scrambled egg was perfectly cooked. The fresh fruit salad was so delicious. The combination of pineapple, cantaloupe, melon and sliced oranges were so fresh. Free parking just outside the door.

    I have been going to this bagel shop for over 25 years. It…read morewas owned by John Marx. It was great. He sold the store to a new owner and at first everything seemed OK. But then slowly everything changed. He reconstructed it to where you order at one place and pick up at another. Ok. New staff, one or two of the original people are there.M The new staff have NO customer service skills. Consistently, always have an attitude when you go to the cash register they look at you like they hate you. They have no training in Customer Service greeting, smiling thanking you for your business. None whatsoever and if they were trained, they're not using the skills when no one's watching them. Slowly the prices went up and up and up, which is true of everywhere , but at one point their prices for their tiny baked goods were insane . It appears maybe they lowered some , but you can't walk out of there without spending a lot of money. Also, they changed the tuna recipe which was their classic number one signature tuna. They're now using a cheaper fish or tasting brand. It's more liquidy and it's a completely different taste. Fishy It's not good. I might as well make it at home I can use albacore instead of their cheap tuna. Their pastries are *tiny and overpriced. They have raised prices ok but they drastically cut the portions they give you . It's half the amount of food that Marks is is known for . Marxx is known for its overstuffed Bagels - no more but they are charging more for much less food. If you're going to charge a lot, at least give the same amount of portions that people who have been loyal customers are used to. Also, they bought bigger containers, but they put less in them. It's so obvious when you buy loose tuna or loose cream cheese it's in a different bigger container with less food in it. Overall, I feel the place is completely gone down downhill! the things that were known for like the tuna the over stuffed sandwiches being able to feel like you got a good meal with a nice portion. All of that is gone. They're inconsistent with the portion sizes they give you and sometimes it's just not even enough. I had ordered containers of cream cheese with salmon in it and tuna and I had company over and what normally lasted did not because there's so much less food in the containers. Unfortunately, the tuna does not taste good anymore and he's probably buying something other than albacore to save money. People notice what you're doing they see that everything is being cut, and that the taste is changing the bagels are much smaller but are higher in carbohydrates . I go to Skip's now as well, and Skip's has much bigger softer. Bagels and their food is actually improved and I still like the salmon cream cheese and a lot of of the food at Mark's and allow myself to go there, but I don't go there as often.

I soon discovered there is always a line, not necessarily bc it's good- but because you order yourself via tablet at a station and people are generally slow & not very efficient at that task so ordering just takes a long time bc of customers- anyhow- I ordered a sesame bagel with turkey veggie cream cheese, lettuce & tomato and a can of Coke Zero. My total for a bagel & drink wad $21. I will not be doing that again. Was it edible, yes. Was it worth $20, absolutely not. The bagel was bread. It was NOT a bagel. It was bland and boring. It was not toasted. The turkey was thin and barely there. The veggie cream cheese was nothing. I mean it was mildly taste-able but goopy and not savory at all the produce was blah (I mean- we are in a freakin farmers market and you can't offer quality products- c'mon man) - I only ate one half bc I didn't want to waste the calories on something so not enjoyable. I did waste my money though, so you don't have to.
