Store: Old school store, unique box-style bagel hampers that could just as easily contain puppies for sale. Very limited quantity for so early in the hour, almost didn't get an everything. Delivered on it's hot promise though, so possibly a turnover strategy. 4
Bagel: Large, served hot. If you like crunchy and crusty bagel shells, this is the spot for you. Roughs up the mouth but it hurts so good. Only detraction are the toppings don't contribute enough. Light, standard, low density, little salt. 4.5
Cream Cheese: Icing soft from the bagel heat. Rich, fresh. Just the right amount as to not be sloppy, so long as you dance the overflow around the shell as you eat. Scallion lends good flavor, texture neutral. 4.5
