We went here because I was craving ice cream and it was the only place open late. I didn't know it…read morewas a vegan place but I went ahead to give it a try. Chocolate chip cookie: 8/10 this was surprisingly good, especially for being vegan. I've had plenty of vegan desserts and know how hard it is to make them. They actually did an incredible job of this. Ice cream: 2/10 they did not do a good job of this at all. It tasted mainly like artificial sweetener. I got cookies and cream but there were no cookies in it and it was just all grey. The texture was decent but that was about it Overall, good place for vegan cookies but they're pricey with mine being about $9

I wanted to check out the OG Bagel Uprising location in Del Ray before their second location opened…read moreup in Ballston, and I was pleasantly surprised by the pricing and the chewiness of the bagels. I stopped by sometime in the early afternoon last Wednesday to grab something for lunch and some bagels to go. SALMON, EGG, & AVOCADO - 10.75 I was pleasantly surprised that three very expensive ingredients in a bagel was only $10.75. I feel like most places charges $14+ for anything with smoked salmon on it. I chose the plain bagel for the least amount of mess (even though the sesame or garlic bagel would have been great). My bagel was perfectly toasted with the perfect chewiness. It was still really messy because this comes with an over easy egg, and the yolk got everywhere. Overall, great bagel sandwich. 1/2 DOZEN BAGELS - 10 The server who took my order told me asked if I wanted 10 bagels for $10 instead -- how could I say no? I grabbed some plains, sesames, poppy seeds, and a garlic. I've only tried the plain and garlic so far, and the garlic is a bit messy and leaves a lingering garlicky smell after I heated it up. I kind of liked it, but not for everyone. My friend enjoyed the sesame bagel! HOUSE MADE VEGAN CREAM CHEESE - 11 I was curious about their version of vegan cream cheese (made of coconut cream and tofu), so I bought a tub to try. It's not bad, but I don't love it. It has a very strong coconut cream flavor, which threw me off, and it melts really easily and does not hold its consistency well. Overall, good try, but I'll stick with regular cream cheese next time. Thankful that Bagel Uprising keeps their pricing more reasonable. I'm excited for their second location to open in Ballston, which is much closer to me.

Nice bagel shop located in Del Ray district of Alexandria. This business is tucked away in a nook…read moreof Mt Vernon Ave and is not as obvious as other street side businesses. They offer a large assortment of fresh made bagels, a large assortment of cream cheese varietals/spreads along with their fresh house made coffee. All of which are quite tasty. Aside from the bagels they also offer a large assortment of bagel sandwiches. This is a counter order operation with no inside dining available. Uncovered outside picnic tables are available if you want to enjoy your food on the premises which we did on this glorious spring day. Relative to staff they are super friendly and efficient in getting the food out which is important as this business is quite popular on Weekend mornings in particular. Overall if you like fresh bagels than this business should be right up your alley.

The breakfast sandwich would be the perfect hangover meal -- buttery and cheesy. But, it was way too much bread compared to the bacon, egg and cheese. The cinnamon roll was absolutely delicious!

I'm actually not the biggest fan of cream cheese either, because of how overpowering it can taste but thankfully I did not have an issue with my breakfast sandwich. I definitely had better smoked salmon, but beggers can't be choosers. Convenience won out this weekend. Solid takeout spot when you're on the move.

Came here to pick up loose bagels for a neighbor leaving the area. I was worried that the price of…read morethe bagels would be high, but I loved the deal of $2 each when you buy 6. Not bad vs. buying a single bagel around $3+. Service was so fast. But that was mainly because I got only loose bagels. I highly recommend the cheesy garlic bagel - really wish I did 6 of those instead of a variety. If I were to come back here, I'd enjoy the outdoor seating and people watch with a good bagel and some coffee on a nice summer morning or on a crisp fall afternoon right after work! Great place for bagels and happy it's in the water park!

I got a McLovin (Sasuage, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit), a New Orleans style coffee, a slice of PB Nutella Pie, and two cookies: one Oreo in a blanket and the other a PB Cup in a Blanket (which are basically chocolate chip cookies with an Oreo and PB Cup inside of them). I've had the pie and coffee before and loved. But the other items are new. I'll start with the McLovin: it's incredible! All the flavors work together nicely. The buttermilk biscuit is nice and fluffy and the sausage is well seasoned and egg was cooked to perfection with some melty cheese! The PB Cup in and blanket was yummy too! A stagger advised I heat it ijnthe microwave for 10 seconds and it was so gooey! The Oreo in a Blanket was also great! I really enjoy Bakeshop and I'm so glad I live really close to one! I've been to the Vienna and Arlington locations and the staff for both are really nice! Quick service too!
