Total Score
Ranks & Awards
Store: Smaller space with rectangular length. Lots of spreads on display with intention. Clean, modern bagel store aesthetic. The staff seemingly enjoying being there, showing pictures of cars to each other on the phone while serving me. Pleasant enough in their interactions with me to be endearing rather than abrasive. A bagel crew. Limited drink selection. 4.25
Bagel: A medium-sized, tall bagel. Double sided toppings Sesame dominant. Salt crystals present but minimal. Served warm. Nice crispy brown shell. A tough chew, but fair. Rewarding. From the school of bagels that seeks to evoke crusty bread. 4
Cream Cheese: Brought to neutral temperature by bagel warmth. Even application. A fresh, quality spread with an unobtrusive scallion component. Above solid, below spectacular. 4
