    If I could give "0" stars, I would. The guy is always rude, so I have avoided having him make my order. Today I had no choice because the lady was too busy. I had asked him to make it a certain way, the ladies have done for me plenty of times, and he was very upset. He only ever wants it to be done his way because it might take an extra step. He was mostly mad because I asked for it to go on the panini toaster instead of the microwave. The microwave makes it rubbery. If I'm paying almost $10 for a bagel sandwich, I think asking for it toasted instead of simply warmed up, is not too difficult. I will never go back because I simply don't want to deal with that guy ever again.

    Great service and addictive Cuban Panini! Fresh flavorful sandwich made to order in 5 min!. I also like the frozen/ blended spicy chai... perfect for a hot day! Update- two items actually. 1) Spicy chai is alsogreat HOT. 2) I really appreciate the cleanliness. When work slows they mop and wipe... floors cleaner than kitchen counters in some places. I am asthmatic, and have never found the cleaning smells to be an issue... Stop in and check it out!

    The store charges a hidden fee $1.50 which is named CUSTOM ITEM. I didn't find the item name from the store menu. Please see the attached photo which is receipt.

    I walked into this place, excited to get a bagel, but walked out when I saw that none of the workers were wearing masks. I will not support a business that does not follow the law or respect the people who have suffered from this pandemic.

    Website hours say open till 6. No. Hand written sign on door now says 4. Be great if they were actual open till 4. Been there 3 times when they closed before 4 and the doors were locked. Even if there are customers in the shop they won’t acknowledge you. Today they added a written sign saying closed for Easter so I guess they’re closed on Friday. The purpose of having business hours is so customers know when to patronize you. Very aggravating.

    Cute bagel shop with excellent service. All the people working there were so nice and warm! Very welcoming and friendly. Although, it's a chain, seems like a local mom and pop shop The bagel was amazing and so was the cream cheese. Bagel with cream cheese and coffee for $7!

    They are wonderful people! I feel like I have a family member making me food! I highly recommend this place.

    Bagels were so soft and chewy. Lox was the perfect ratio of ingredients. Staff was super nice.

    Great food and selection of sandwiches. Coffee was good, and the service was quick and friendly.

    Would give 0 stars if possible. Ordered half a dozen bagels and all I got were plain. Not worth the money for plain bagels. Could have went jewel or Walmart or any grocery store and got 6 plain bagels for way way cheaper. And if that's all that was left then maybe reach out to someone and let them know. I definitely would not have ordered. Now I will never order from them again. Because they would rather make money then take care of their customers. Extremely disappointing

    Their website advertises false pricing information. I went to buy the corporate party pack for a work party and the price was $10 more than listed online. They refused to honor the price they were advertising online.

  • 5/5 Nicole T. 2 years ago on Google
    Stopped in while my son was at day rehab. I had the Italian trio on Asiago bagel. It was the best bagel I’ve ever had. I’ll be back for lunch again and to get the kids some bagels to have at home!! Very friendly owners.

    Garbage food. Cheapest white bread and chicken tasted like it was cooked last week.

    Got a bagle sandwich which was the Italian trio. Wow the bagle was soft and delicious I wish my local American bagle have the peak quality as this location. There was a good amout of meat and toppings. If I'm in the area I'm definitely coming here again!

    These guys are great! They are very efficient, friendly and helpful. Bagels and breakfast sandwiches are always good. Their sandwich tray looked nice and the coffee box to go was so convenient. Happy to have such a great go-to place!

    Amazing customer service. All of the staff is super friendly and helpful. They got me my order fast and the bagels taste delicious. You can definitely tell the difference between store bought bagels and these handmade bagels:) always worth the trip from chicago to this location.
