I had the turkey and bacon sandwich for my first go because I was in the mood for something close to a BLT. The bread was the star of the show, but all the ingredients were great quality. You can taste the difference in the fresh homemade bread with Panes. I've also had the Roast Beef sandwich and another home run. (Minus the spicy mayo) I've never had to wait a long time for an order and the staff have always been pleasant. It's a small place inside, but wholesome and cozy. The sandwiches come with Lay's chips, so not a dealbreaker for me. Would be nice to have some other chip options, but again the smallest of small things to notice. The sandwich is a decent size and fills you up for lunch. I can't wait to try some of their other foods (pastas and pizzas).

They have a nice selection of optional toppings that you can add on to your sandwich ... next time I'll add some arugula for extra texture. It took approx 10 minutes for the sandwich to come out which was very reasonable during the lunch hour.

The inside is super hero themed and had comics on the walls which was pretty cool. While they do have some indoor seating They have a few small tables outside so we sat outside since the weather was so nice! I got the 6inch mama Mia which was a great sandwich! First off the sandwich was really large and much bigger than I expected. It was great the bread was fresh and not dry or too crumbly like some can be, the condiments weren't too much or little and the meats were stacked high! I feel the cost was worth the sandwhich! The service was great the girl working the counter was very sweet and helpful! The guy that ended up bringing out our order was super nice and ran back into grab something else we requested. Overall a good place for lunch!

It was lacking flavor overall and think they should have tossed the arugula in some lemon juice and olive oil to enhance the sandwich. When I asked for some garlic mayo on the side, they said they would bring it out, but never did. Two of the people I was with asked for a side of their mustard and they charged one of them for it but not the other which was weird. I did like the bread it came on and how it was pressed like a panini. I also loved all the chip and drink options. The inside is cute and small with a few large picnic style tables. They also have a few outdoor seats for when it's nice out!

I went to Gotham New York Bagels and Eat in Chicago and honestly, I loved it. The bagels were super…read morefresh, packed with a ton of filling, and had the perfect texture. I ordered the salmon bagel with onion and capers and it was incredible, really delicious. We also tried the cinnamon bagel with cinnamon sugar cream cheese and it was amazing, seriously one of the best I've had. They also had some sliced and toasted bagels that were really good too. Every bagel came with a pickle on the side, which was a nice touch. The place itself was amazing. There were plenty of tables to sit, a cozy bar area where you can eat or have a coffee, and the overall vibe was super friendly and comfortable. It's not a huge space, but it feels really inviting and there's enough room to stay for a while, you could even bring your laptop and get some work done. In the summer, they also have outdoor seating, which makes it even nicer. The service was great, the staff was friendly, and the menu had a wide variety of options for everyone. The only thing is that it's a bit pricey. We ordered two filled bagels and one plain bagel with just a small side of cream cheese, and it was almost fifty dollars. If all three had been filled bagels, I would totally understand the price, but since one was plain, it did feel a bit expensive. We also got the strawberry cream cheese, which was good but not my favorite. I definitely preferred the cinnamon sugar one. Overall, I would absolutely go back because the bagels were fantastic, the space was cozy and welcoming, and it's a perfect spot to relax or grab breakfast, just a little on the expensive side.

I ordered a sandwich at 9:40 PM while the posted hours clearly showed they were open until 10:00…read more From the moment I walked in, it felt like they were already closed -- every chair was up on the tables, creating an unwelcoming atmosphere. The cashier still charged me nearly $30 for a meal after tip, but while I was eating, the bartender began cussing me out for sitting in an area he had already cleaned. Apparently it was acceptable for the three patrons at the bar to continue drinking beer, but not for me to quietly eat the food I had just purchased before closing time. If customers aren't welcome during posted business hours, the restaurant should either stop serving earlier or adjust the hours. I would rather eat on the street than spend another nickel here.

They lack the fluffiness you want, and you can see it in how they flatten out. But it was the fake cheese (liquid Kraft singles? cheese whiz maybe?) and fake processed egg that sunk it for me.
