    Went here for the first time a couple of days ago. I was so happy to see how easy parking is then the selection. We ate in the little courtyard there. The v staff was so nice and when I realized something was forgotten to be put in our bag, my son went in to ask about it. She gave us an extra bagel as an an apology for forgetting it. That was so nice..and delicious 😋! I appreciate it! Thank you so much. Everything we had was delicious. Pizza bagel, brisket sandwich on a bagel (hash brown toast) and a turkey cheese sandwich on a plan bagel. Plus a jalapeño cheese bagel. We will definitely be going back now that we know what parking is like and how easy it is to get there.

    Had the best experience at this location that I’ve had so far! Walked in and the store cleanliness was on point, I was greeted at the door upon arrival they had someone stamping for parking validation which was great because I had forgotten I had a ticket so thank you for that. Ordered an all nighter asked for crispy bacon and they did not give a hard time about that, everyone was very friendly and open to conversation with the customers which I appreciate. Will definitely make this location a regular for my breakfast in the morning
