#29 in Brooklyn #87 in NYC

Store: Clean, intentioned space. Moderate drink selection, variety of pastries and many cream cheese options. Staff seemed a little overwhelmed despite the lack of business in the store. Wary of the service, but the amenities cannot be denied. 3.75

Bagel: Fresh bagel, not hot. Large. Double-sided toppings, standard plus oat. Light salt representation. A pleasantly soft bagel, easy to chew. Virtually no crackle to the shell. Missing saltiness. The freshness is commendable, particularly at the advanced AM hour. 4

Cream Cheese: Served at room temperature, well applied. Very dairy apparent. An exceptionally whipped appearance is validated by its fresh constitution. Solid yet unspectacular. 4
