Store: Colorful, compact, lots of appealing signage. Fast, efficient staff. Well priced. Fresh squeezed juices a plus. Lacked a wide array of pastries. Bagels were stacked - no bueno. 3.75

Bagel: Medium-large. Toppings one side only, flat bottom. Standard toppings plus salt in good ratio. Stiff for the relatively early hour. Good flavor from the topping; in fact, most of this score rising to decency comes from the topping ratio and density. 3.25

Cream Cheese: Served deli case cold. Well and evenly applied. Smooth, not clumpy. Nice sized scallion chunks. Not overly cheesy. Not particularly noticeable, either. 3.25
