Well, talk about a hidden gem. I had this place bookmarked but could not tell you where I heard…read moreabout it. It is basically a little luncheon oasis dropped right in the middle of a gigantic industrial park. On the drive over I was seriously questioning my Yelp choices. It is that kind of location. But trust Yelp and sometimes you are handily rewarded, which we absolutely were. We came after a few hours strolling around at the Botanical Gardens, so we rolled in around 1:30 and there were still plenty of people there. I can only imagine at noon this place is packed, and honestly it should be. My biggest complaint is the menus. There is one above the counter that does not include everything, and then a different, more complete version if you scan the QR code at the table (But 2 different navigations even on the website with slightly different menus). Do yourself a favor and look it up ahead of time so you are not standing there making panic decisions. There is a half sandwich and half soup combo (Not on the board but online menu), which is definitely the move. I got the pozole, which you should absolutely order, and a half grilled cheese on their housemate sourdough. Normally not my go to, but I was trying not to be completely stuffed since we had dinner plans. And they bake their own sourdough, so I had a strong feeling it would be great, and it delivered. Toasty and melty, American and cheddar. My husband got the southwestern wrap, and my friend went with the half club and half tomato soup. She immediately regretted not getting the pozole and the half birria sandwich, which tells you everything you need to know. Also need to mention the snickerdoodle. Not much to look at, kind of humble, but it completely makes up for it with flavor and that perfect soft texture. Go ahead and get the cookie. You are not here to make responsible decisions. Bottom line, it may feel like you are driving into the middle of nowhere, but keep going. This place is worth it.

This is exactly the kind of hole in the wall lunch spot you'll miss if you're not paying attention…read more I literally drove past it twice before realizing it was right there. It's also one of those "if you know, you know" places, and clearly people know, because the to-go orders were nonstop. The second you walk in, you're hit with cases of fresh baked bread, and pastries. The almond pistachio croissant was the biggest one I've ever seen and had me drooling before I even placed my order. It is counter service, and I went with a Mediterranean sandwich with chicken while my lunch date got a classic BLT. Both were incredible, super fresh ingredients, excellent flavor, and next level fresh bread/ flatbread. Try the sourdough ! You can tell this place is legit because you see everyone in there from construction workers, people, in scrubs, law-enforcement, executives, all grabbing lunch. When that many hard-working people trust a spot, you know it's got to be good. If you're in Garland, add this place to your must try list. It is an excellent lunch spot.

I will warn y'all, it was packed on a rainy Saturday morning. There was really nowhere to sit so we got our coffee and breakfast to go.

I had the ol dirty, my husband had the one with avocado and our friend got the mcbagel. Hella good food.

Even my boyfriend, who's been to France, said it's the best croissant he's ever had... and honestly, I agree. I ordered a latte, and while the presentation was beautiful, the taste completely stole the show--smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. The whole place has such a welcoming, family feel with gorgeous aesthetics that make you want to linger. And we did. Toward the end of our visit, a musician was setting up, and when we asked if we could stay a bit longer to hear her, they kindly welcomed us to. Not only that--they surprised us by bringing out fresh coffees for both of us. That level of hospitality, combined with truly exceptional food and drinks, made this such a memorable experience. We'll absolutely be back to try more of the menu.

We happened to be nearby, so I called to check if they had corn dogs available (they had 9 left), so we drove on down. Location is easy to get to. You can pull up and turn on your hazards for service, walk up to a window, or eat inside the small dining area. We opted for car service for the vibes. Had my order taken by a really friendly kid, seems like a family owned and run place. We got fries, onion rings, 3 corn dogs, chicken strips, and a classic bacon cheeseburger, plus a large root beer. Fries are crinkle cut, good and basic. Onion rings are beer battered, very good. The hand dipped corn dogs are good if you like your batter heavier with corn meal, it lends itself to a very crispy corn dog (I liked it, the picky people with me did not like the texture). Chicken strips were picky kid approved, allegedly "frickin good". Bacon cheeseburger was a solid basic burger. Root beer was alright, think it would be great to get the float option. Now, here is where I need to just throw in that my niece got a corndog and fries... Some time into all of us eating our lunch, she told me there was hair in her fries, and I didn't believe her, so I took them from her and then I thought maybe it was just like burnt little strips of spices or anything other than hair, please, but no...thick, wiry little black hairs, and when the count was higher than 3, I threw everything away. Put me off from coming back, honestly, and it's a shame because I'm sure it was a one off. Other than the hair thing, everything else was great, or at least decent.

It truly feels like you've stepped into a legit Italian market. It's packed--in a good way--but be prepared to rub elbows while you shop. If you don't have social anxiety, it's all part of the experience. We met another couple there for sandwiches, and they absolutely delivered. I had the Italian beef, which was delicious--but definitely spicy. I even asked for light peppers and it still brought some heat. So fair warning: if you're sensitive to spice, you might want to pivot to something else. My wife has been missing New Orleans, so she went with the muffaletta. Let's just say it was a much cheaper solution than flying her to the Big Easy. No gumbo on the menu, but the sandwich hit the spot. After we ate, we did a little shopping and grabbed some fresh Italian ingredients imported straight from Italy--which is always a win in my book. Great food, great vibe, and a true Dallas institution. We'll definitely be back.

There are many reasons that made us interested in this place: - Walkability from the bus station to/from the destination (Arboretum); - Option for outdoor seating on a nice day; - A, simple, healthy, and fast breakfast; - Low key vibe, nothing fancy. We like that we can "grab and go" if we want; - Affordability; - Good reviews from other customers! Bagel Bros did not disappoint. Bagels were freshly made on site. I had a fresh blueberry bagel with honey almond apricot cream cheese, which was very good! I wanted to get the whole tub, but given our long day ahead of us, it was not feasible.
