    Read about the new ownership and hadn't been to the shop in a while. Stopped by for a breakfast bagel. Toasted sesame seed bagel, buttered, with with egg, cheddar, and bacon. Was delicious !!. I'll be going back to try the lunch bagels - they have soups, salads, and cookies and brownies too.

    So sad. I miss the old great American bagel. Bagels are not nearly half as good. They put a thin amount of cream cheese on the bagel. When you ask for extra they charge over $2 for extra on the bagel. Such a shame on the new owners… pic of bagel with the extra $2 cream cheese…. This is the amount every bagel should have for the price you’re paying for the bagels. Lol

    This place absolutely didn't disappoint. As soon as I walked in I was greeted. The variety of bagels and cream cheese was beyond my expectations. I order the Sunrise bagel on Spicy Tomazzo bagel. They bagel was simply a pizza bagel with Jalapeno. I got it toasted and on the bagel was Egg, cheese, bacon and sausage. It was beyond delicious! I wanted a second but had to contain myself. Definitely will be back for the same order very soon. My daughter got a jalapeno Cheddar bagel with plain cream cheese. She definitely enjoyed her bagel but she took a few bites of mine and instantly regretted not getting what I got.

    One of the very best GAB’s around the Chicago area! Very clean, well-decorated, and a warm, friendly, and welcoming staff. Manned by adults, not nonchalant adolescents. That east window is tough to cope with as the morning sun ☀️ can be overwhelming.

    If you’re in the mood for a change, try their bagel sandwiches! Amazing! Customer service was excellent & my sandwich was made quickly as I was on the go for work!
