After my early morning annual physical, I treated myself to a breakfast bagel sandwich from Bagel…read moreFair. Someone got up early to make the bagels. The cases were filled with hundreds of freshly made bagels when I walked in. It was hard to decide, so I selected my standard Everything Bagel with egg and bacon. There is no dine-in, I took my bagel to eat in the car. My bagel, wrapped like a present, was warm and perfectly chewy. The service is friendly and fast. Bagels are reasonably priced. Tubs of flavored cream cheese are available in a case. They even sell the tee shirts. I found lots of parking in the shared lot. It would be nice to have a little table or bench outside to eat (hint, hint).

I recently tried the slug-o's bagel which has corned beef, cheddar, horseradish, lettuce, tomato, onion, and mayo. So good! And, the bagel was so warm which I loved. I also got a side of chips and a drink to complete the perfect lunch. It took about 15 minutes since there were a few people ahead of us, so not too bad. Great spot for a quick lunch! They have a handful of tables inside if you want to dine in, or you can take it to go. My colleague got a veggie bagel stacked with all the fresh veggie goodness. She absolutely loved it - definitely a great spot if you're a veggie lover.

I love Ripple Bagel & Deli! I've gone through phases where I was coming here constantly, so I've…read moredefinitely tried my fair share of the menu. My usual orders are the biscuits and gravy or the Dee La Wee with avocado. I also appreciate the little things with their to-go orders, like making sure plasticware is included in the bag. It's simple, but it definitely makes carryout more convenient. Lately, though, it just hasn't been hitting quite the same for me. I honestly can't tell if something has changed or if I just burnt myself out on it because there was a point where I was going almost every day for what felt like forever. One thing to keep in mind is the parking. It can definitely be a pain, and the parking nearby is limited and paid, so depending on when you go, finding a spot can be a little annoying. Overall, I still really like this place and would definitely recommend giving it a try, especially if you're a bagel or breakfast sandwich person!

So, we had fresh bagels for dinner and they were delicious. The bagels were coated on both sides with a perfect blend of carmelized onion bits, aromatic garlic, sea salt, sesame and poppy seeds. I could taste that the seasoning were freshly prepared, as were the bagels. We purchased the bagels from the "Bearded Bagel" chef at the Westfield Farmers Market. He is a regular vendor and was friendly. Bagels range from $10-$12 /pack of six. I was excited to learn that the Bearded Bagels can also be found at their store on 96th Street. I'll be checking the store out soon!

Why did it take me so long to get here? I honestly can't answer that but I had free time to kill…read moreone Sunday afternoon so I popped in for bread and a brownie. Honestly, the employees were not very friendly. I don't care that much about that in this instance because the baked goods made up for their demeanor. The brownie was nice and chewy. Very soft and even though it's super dark, it's not bitter and the salt flakes make it the perfectly balanced sweet and salty combo. Bread was insanely good. I got a half loaf of semolina and the spices on the outside are adjacent to Side Door Bagel's everything bagel seasoning. It's perfect and I wish I lived in Fountain Square so I could get a loaf whenever I need it. Haha. I enjoyed stopping in here and will be back.

I ended up getting several pastries and some bagels (as why would you not), as well as their broccoli salad, cheese sandwich and some cherry pie. Yum! We sat for a few hours to chat and I love how it feels like you are in the middle of a community endeavor. Like everyone here is a friend and you can chat and meet up and feel at home. She wanted to take a Rueben home to her husband but it was a flight away, so the staff let her buy all the fixings and then make it at home. Amazing! It traveled well that way and got to be enjoyed by others. Will always go back to this spot as it has a special place in my heart as my Dad loved it, and it is an I su classic!

Good luck stopping in here for just one item. I tried the croissant cinnamon roll, cheese Danish,…read moreand a sub they had (I forget what was on it!), and every single thing tasted fresh. The croissant cinnamon roll was buttery, flaky, and perfectly glazed, while the Danish had a rich, creamy filling without being overly sweet. Don't sleep on the sandwiches either because the bread alone is worth the trip. The Stutz location is bright, cute, and there's great outdoor seating scattered around. The staff was friendly and helpful, and everything in the pastry case looked as good as it tasted. I have an allergy and they were able to easily answer questions. My only advice is if you want a specific pastry you should go early. The best items sell out fast, and for good reason. Easy 5 stars.

I come mostly for the breads and the cinnamon rolls made from croissant dough. I do have to say I preferred the 'old' way these were made which was with a lot less icing. But I get that the change was probably done on request as folks generally prefer the extra sweet things here. Don't get me wrong, I will still continue to devour my fair share of these delicious works of art. And you cannot go wrong with the bread around here. I tend to freeze quite a bit of it since I don't live near an Amelia's. I have to say it does freeze well, especially if you toast it a little after thawing it.

Grab a seat by the windows and you'll have a front-row view of the city walking by while you sip your coffee. I grabbed a cup of their Santa Lucia, picked up a bottle of Topo Chico (bonus points for opening it for me), and couldn't leave without taking home a bag of ARC whole beans. They'll even grind your beans for free if you need them ready for your brewing method at home--a small touch that's always appreciated. The bakery case also deserves a warning label because saying "I'll just have coffee" becomes significantly more difficult once you're standing in front of it. The atmosphere was exactly what I look for in a neighborhood coffee shop: friendly staff, people working on laptops, quiet conversations, and a relaxed pace that makes it easy to lose track of time. Whether you're looking for a quality cup before exploring downtown or a cozy place to settle in for a while, Tinker is absolutely worth the stop. And if you're anything like me...don't be surprised if you leave with beans for home, too.

There were a lot of different style seating options, so we picked outside. Got the cold brew flight, which today was cereal flavors. I was skeptical because I don't love super sweet coffees, but they were all delicious. The shop did a nice job of balancing recognizable flavors with coffee and not being over powered on the sugar. I also got the Som In Law sandwich, which is egg, chorizo and some other delicious things on an Asiago bagel. It was warm, crispy on the outside, perfect chewy on the inside of the bagel. The bagel to topping ratio was solid. It was a great savory treat to go with my coffee. Overall an awesome stop for a lunch hang out. Will definitely be back.

The young man who waited on me was extremely busy and pleasant at the same time. I love to see people actually working versus taking forever to make drinks because they are catching up on what's going on outside of work. Everyone meshed well together. There are seats available inside and outside if you want to stay around and drink your beverage or eat your food. Will I be back? Probably! Is it worth trying? Yes!

Between the cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and overall vibes, I completely understood why this place is so loved. If it hadn't been 10 a.m., we absolutely would've grabbed some ice cream too because the flavors looked incredible. Safe to say Foundry Provisions has earned a permanent spot on my list, and I can't wait to come back!

Spoiler: The regulars and staff alike made us feel immediately at home, which says everything about the culture of a place.

The food just needed a little fine-tuning to really shine. The catfish seemed to have a beer-battered coating that felt a little soft and held onto some extra moisture instead of having that classic light crunch. I would love a bit more flavor baked right into the waffle and biscuit dough--though the gravy flavor was definitely a win! Also, the grits lean heavy into jalapeno notes rather than a creamy, cheesy base. It's such a cute venue with great energy, and a few little kitchen adjustments could make it amazing!

Food: lame Price: expensive!…read moreService: not friendly Atmosphere: SUPER WEIRD... dimly lit, Deer-butt wallpaper and clowns??? My husband and I had never been here before and the lady at the counter was less than friendly. She did tell us the menu was on the other wall. My husband got a Diet Coke that came in a can and we both got a classic plate minus the toast. 2 eggs, 2 sausage patties... nothing special including the presentation. The price for each plate was $18 plus a $2 can of coke and a tip they didn't deserve brought our total to a little over $40. The eggs were flavorless and literally had no seasoning. I did appreciate that the sausage patties weren't greasy. That was about the only good thing. The decor looked like they took whatever thrift stores couldn't sell with no particular theme. Funny enough, we went out for breakfast a few days later to a DIFFERENT PLACE and for the SAME PRICE got way more food, better quality food, better presentation, full table service, friendly service, great atmosphere, and an overall wonderful experience. Overall, I would not recommend this place. We left feeling like we got ripped off and I could have made the same thing better at home.
