I love this place. It's got great vibes, friendly staff, delicious bagels, and good coffee. I work…read morefrom here usually once a week, and have tried several bagels/sandwiches on the menu, and I really do think they are the best bagel in Philly. Doesn't hurt that they are also located in the best neighborhood in town too. I'm currently addicted to the Avocado BLT on a toasted everything bagel, add a friend egg - highly recommend.

Mean and ableist. The bagels taste good when fresh but the staff are horrible. My mother used order…read morethem all the time, but stopped because of awful way the staff treat her. She has serious arthritis, so she needs the bagels cut. Every time she asks, the staff roll their eyes at her, make her feel horrible for asking. They HAVE a bagel cutter--sitting right next to their mean, strawberry-flavored bagel faces. So it's extra weird. Especially when they snap at her, "WE DONT HAVE TIME FOR THAT!!!" Even without debilitating arthritis, it's extremely messy having to cut a whole bag of bagels by hand at home, especially when they're covered with stuff. It's dumb. Like I wouldn't ever make a catering order because of they refuse to cut them--and we have lots of occasions to. Last time I checked, no one's dying over bagels, so, yeah, you do have time, to be kind kind. Time to be a good neighbor, time to not be ageist and ableist, and time to act like a normal person. Anyway, we love bagels. But since it just bagels, I'm fine with going somewhere else.

Maria's Bread Sandwiches is one of my recent awesome discoveries while walking around Collingswood…read more There are two separate entrances: one door you can order drinks ( coffee, latte's, etc) to go and the other you can sit down in the cutest little shop to order food to eat in. Everything was good! But that hash brown was delicious! Crispy with the perfect amount of salt! I will be back soon to try a sandwich.

If you find yourself in Philly and you have a hankering for a great bagel... this is the place!…read moreIt's a small Independent shop near Washington Square. They have bagel sandwiches and the like but I opted for a single black sesame bagel. Never had a black sesame before. It's different from my normal white sesame but had a heat flavor. The bagel itself was just amazing. Soft, with a great chew. Yvonne helped at the counter and she was terrific! Great service!

Nice bagel cafe close by to Washington that is open breakfast and early lunch hours. Has a few…read moresmaller tables here to sit and eat. The staff here are lovely and welcoming. The menu has various bagels and spreads, and sandwich options. Also various beverages as well. The bagel types are interesting. I tried the fennel seed one and it had good flavor. Had the Mediterranean tuna bagel sammie with a side of pesto pasta. Also came with a drink with their lunch special. Bagels are on the smaller side! Fillings were tasty though.

Love seeing a positive face in the morning! I orders a BEC on sea salt rosemary-- my goto. Bagels were out in ~5 minutes, and it was a delicious bit to eat with coffee later on. The shop here is pick-up only, and on some mornings when I've visited especially in the winter, it's kind of painful to wait inside because it started to get a bit cramped. More just a heads up but not a piece of feedback though since their lot is pretty small. If you're grabbing breakfast in the Rittenhouse area, this is nice option for you! Just know that you'll have to take it to-go and eat it elsewhere.

Clearly we needed a new local source for bagels! I ordered two plain bagels and upon getting them noted that they look and smell exactly how great NY bagels should. Even the texture was absolutely spot on. Service was excellent. Once home, I properly topped my purchase with schmear and salmon and braced myself for the moment of truth. Verdict: Excellent; just like you'd get in NYC at one of the best bagel places.

I would definitely get this again. The bagel on the other hand was unimpressive. It was a little too bread-like. I mean it is bread but it was as if I was just eating a dinner roll. Anyway the sandwich is a 4/5 but the bagel is barely a 3. I'm interested in trying other sandwiches but probably wouldn't get a dozen bagels here. P.S. No seating inside. Only takeout counter.

Unfortunately, I did not enjoy this bagel sandwich in the slightest. The egg tasted fake. The bacon…read moretasted very strange. I ordered a cheddar jalapeño bagel and it looked like cinnamon raisin and had no cheddar jalapeño flavoring. I was very disappointed. I am from NJ and was visiting for the weekend and heard great things about this spot from my friend whom I was visiting. The service was great and the shop itself was adorable. However, the bagel was not great. I will stick to eating cheesesteaks when visiting Philly.
