    I never leave reviews but I just wanna start out by saying if you are charging $20 for one lox bagel not even face up I better get a pound of salmon and not 3 pieces. Employees were nice but $20 for a bagel, guys what are we doing!

    Seasonal pumpkin bagel with cream cheese ($5)

    I've never had a bagel like this! Based on the other reviews, it sounds like I've never had a real east coast bagel... until now. I walked into this no frills shop, greeted my friendly employees, and tried the seasonal pumpkin bagel with cream cheese ($5). They did not play with that cream cheese! The flavor was distinctly pumpkin but not overly sweet like you might find elsewhere. The bagel had a nice crispy outside and soft, fluffy yet moist inside. I would definitely come back and enjoy another flavor or breakfast sandwich (posted for under $9).

    Put this bagel shop at the top of your bagel list. The line was long but moved quickly. The bagels come out fresh and hot. They are also as big as Frisbees and trust me, I'm not complaining. They are soft and chewy and delicious. No preservatives, either. They have just about every flavor of bagel imaginable. I am more of a traditionalist. A nice onion bagel with chive cream cheese makes me happy but you do you. The owner was working the register and has charisma for days. I felt like I made a new friend after a 30 second interaction. And here we are, enjoying the bagels 24 hours later, and they are still soft and chewy and delicious. Excellent bagels at reasonable prices and wonderful customer service.

    The bagels are amazing, and the owner is probably the nicest guy I've ever met. If I could give 10 stars, I would.
