Good bagel but the egg sandwich lacks the good 'ol off-the-griddle flavor from NY bagel joints I'm used to. Would love it if they could really toast their bagels and melt the cheese so its ooey-gooey.
Laura WongJuly 16, 2015Great place for breakfast/brunch. Doesn't just serve bagels, but unique sandwiches on bagels, pastries, and smoothies. Good when you need a hearty breakfast to go- Joshua LivecchiOctober 20, 2015Great bagel sandwiches at a good price! But don't pass up on the sweet dessert crepes! They are to die for!!!
- Hudson crepe was fantastic. Their iced mocha was nice. Bagels looked on point. Great overall
Learned that you can Text your order for pick up. Place is popular and busy, really good if@you are in a hurry.- Paul SapianoAugust 26, 2019Bagels of course. Buy a bakers dozen, take them home and bung them in the freezer.Boom! Bagels for the week.
¦ I've been coming here since they opened. The bagels are huge, the cheeses delicious! Try the ctream cheese melt on Everything. :p
Luh dis place. Literally go every morning. Sylvia and Maria are the best
Order the veggie bagel with whole grain everything, ask for as many veggies as possible. Absolutely wonderful.
Christinamarie DrakeJune 28, 2011They are super flexible and offer both veg. And vegan options. They really work FOR the customer. Excellent shop!
- A really great family and kid friendly place..everyone always has smiles here
Moira SheenJune 16, 2012Never ask for extras on to-go orders. They ALWAYS forget to add them but NEVER forget to charge.- They have a GREAT Crepes station...had a couple this morning...so fresh
Use Zingle to text your order in. You get in and out quickly.
- Use Zingle...especially on weekends. Sales heaps of time!
Atom AJuly 11, 2011Don't go here. The service falls short. They create a false sense of stress and panic.
