I’ve been wanting to try this place for awhile and boy did it not disappoint. We got three different bagels and all were equally delicious. Thunderbird is a great sweet salty (a better version of McDonald’s McGriddle). Queens point had a perfect amount of spice and cream cheese. The suns city was your classic breakfast bagel that’s a little elevated with the pastrami. Everything was well balanced and delicious. The service was also very kind and patient with us as we asked a billion questions and took forever to order.

Call Your Mother didn’t miss. The bagels and sandwiches are awesome, easily some of the best I’ve had. I got the Sun City w bacon and swapped the honey for garlic cream cheese and it was right up my alley. The latkes were also good. The whole place has that “you’re about to eat something amazing” energy the second you walk in. Absolutely worth the stop.

Visit Date: 29DEC2025 Time: 0900 Cashier: Megan (I apologize for the misspelling of her name) Order: BYO: •Every Bagel •Turkey •Avocado Spread •Egg Whites •Tomato •Cucumbers My experience was PHENOMENAL! Megan was super sweet, inviting, supportive and patient! She helped me build my dream breakfast sandwich. The bagel was toasted to perfection. Will definitely go back and bring friends with me. The aesthetic of the place was beautiful as well! I absolutely loved the wall art. I was slightly disappointed by the fact that they don’t have almond milk for a lattes but the food and atmosphere made up for that small in convenience.

Fun bagel shop offering massive portions of handmade fresh bagels. They're super busy but the wait wasn't too bad and they have good music and decor. Comfortable clean seating and friendly staff. Pastries are good too, shame I missed the babka muffins!
