    Sad coffee

    High prices they should have more sugar substitutes than sweet and low. Also I don't think they use real butter.

    This place caters to the college crowd at U-Del and it's on the main strip near the campus. The place is generally busy throughout the day. I've been here a few times and the bagels and service are usually good. The bagels tend to be rather large and doughy which is not my favorite. I like them crisp on the outside and fluffy and lighter on the inside. Being from NYC even there that type of bagel is not easy to find. This place reminds me of the bagel store that was around the corner from my old house on Staten Island (Bagel Bin) which I reviewed a few years ago. Again, the place does a brisk business and if you have a craving for a decent bagel, this will satisfy your needs. The service here is quick and even when there is a line, the orders come out in a short amount of time.

    Huge Bagel

    Slightly confused because the line was crazy this Saturday morning. We got bagels to go from a very kind cashier; which, didn't take long at all. As bagel lover our family is pretty loyal to Newark Bagels, today we passed hearts of students in route to this spot and had to see what the buzz was about, some actually pass Newark Bagels on the way here. Wow. Although the bagels are huge, the flavor was not. The everything had no salt. Gasp. The chewiness of the blueberry was on point but still only ok. Ugh. Sorry guys, decent bagel, but we're sticking with Newark Bagels.

    Love the breakfast sandwiches. I ordered the sausage egg and cheese bagel. Tasty, just need a little more sausage overall it was good.

    Black Russian (toasted) bacon egg and cheese.

    Very fresh bagels! I got a egg bacon and cheese on a toasted Black Russian bagel (pumpernickel w everything season) . First things first, I should go on record by stating that not every mom and pop shop uses the same "everything seasoning mix". I realized this here. At The Original Hot Bagel, the salt they use I their Everything Bagel seasoning is the salt they use on soft pretzels. What's the difference? It's saltier. A little different, but good to know in case you you're an everything bagel freak. Cheddar bagel is the bomb. Staff was friendly. Place is clean. Small shop with adequate seating. Would totally go again.

    Loveeee the BLT bagel. I get it toasted on a plain bagel with a hash brown. Like a diner that does sandwiches.

    Breakfast sandwich on cheddar bagel
    Jon T.

    Great bagels and breakfast. Local favorite that never disappoints. I love the cheddar bagel and usually get a breakfast sandwich. They open early and it's usually packed.

    I ordered a bagel for pickup online and it was not ready for 20 minutes after the quoted time. When I decided just to go in, it was unmade so they printed a ticket and did it quickly. I received my bagel completely un-toasted with the cheese just put on there.

    I remember this place being much better in the past. The menu was quite extensive and the service was quick. Food was ok only if you're in a rush. I would NOT recommend. If you have time to go elsewhere.

    Had to visit this very historic restaurant on my trip to Delaware! We had the corn and crab…read morechowder and the short rib grilled cheese. The grilled cheese was different than what other places offer and it did not disappoint- Both were great! We had a reservation and were seated immediately. Loved the atmosphere here. Had great service and it was a very relaxing evening. The place was full of college students and was a little noisy at times. Would go back to this restaurant again.

    Don't use the online ordering via their site. I placed an order at 5:43pm for a 7:15 pm pickup…read more Arrived at 7:15pm and was told the kitchen was jammed and that it was going to be a bit for the food. Waited 30 minutes sitting at the bar, no update or apology offered during the wait. I then asked how much longer and was eventually told a few more minutes, but they have a "new manager," so things were backed up. I've worked in a restaurant before, I understand mistakes happen. To not receive an apology stunned me, honestly. I asked to speak to manager and he told me that I needed to understand they received the order at 7:15pm and they were hosting a private event so it's not their fault. I was more stunned. I showed him on the receipt the 543pm placement time and the 7:15pm pick up time. He told me again they did not receive the order until 7:15 despite the website, receipt recording all this information. Unsurprisingly, some stuff was missing and needed to be added to complete the order. I was given an apology as I walked out by manager, but very poor experience overall. Avoid the online ordering.

    Subject: Formal Complaint - Unacceptable Staff Conduct and Management Failure…read more To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally report a deeply troubling experience I had at your Turning Point Restaurant location. What occurred was far below any reasonable standard of customer service and left me feeling unsafe and disrespected. During my visit, a male server verbally accosted me -- using profane language, making threatening remarks, and treating me in a wholly disrespectful manner. This behavior was entirely unprovoked and completely unacceptable in any setting, let alone a dining establishment. What made the situation worse was the response from management. Despite the incident taking place, the manager on duty took no meaningful action to address the situation, offer an apology, or ensure my safety and comfort as a customer. Their inaction sent a clear message that this kind of conduct is tolerated at your restaurant. I am requesting the following: 1. A formal written acknowledgment of this complaint 2. A full investigation into the conduct of the staff member involved 3. Appropriate disciplinary action against both the server and the manager who failed to act 4. A direct response to me outlining the steps taken I sincerely hope Turning Point takes this matter seriously. No customer should ever be subjected to threats or verbal abuse, and no manager should stand by while it happens. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely, Kwame

    Solo brunch after the recent Seahawk Super Bowl win…read more Anthony was a friendly, knowledgeable waiter that sadly let me know there wasn't anymore grits for my shirmp and grits so decided to take his recommendation. A nice spicy fancy tomatoes soup with egg. The sour cream cut down on the spice with the nicely toasted bread. Prefer the high top table as a casual spot to eat before exploring the chaos of the Christiana mall or Fashion Center
