Store: An old school spot, fairly compact, with unique offerings: baked soft pretzels, cannoli-flavored candy bars, etcetera. Compact. All spreads are showcased in large, circular bowls with doilies underneath. Great signage and staff shirts. Some unique bagel types, including a seemingly unique everything option with different types of seeds. A classic, high quality store. 4.5

Bagel: Large bagel. Double-sided toppings at moderate density. Standard toppings plus sunflower seeds (uncommon) and flax seed (encountered just one other time). Salt crystals present at a decent ratio. A strong example of the 'doughy' bagel type. Fresh but not hot. In addition to its strong fundamentals, admirable for including unusual toppings that actually contribute. 4.5

Cream Cheese: Served deli case cool. Good amount applied and even coverage. Fresh, with no sense of overcheese. Scallion supports the well, adding texture and flavor but not dominating things. A professional spread 4.25
