Once Upon A Bagel is a local restaurant that offers a wide selection of menu items, including the popular al pastor tacos and a variety of bagels. The location is adorable, with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. While the bagels may not be the main highlight, the deli foods are praised for their high quality, making it a go-to spot for many locals. The pretzel bagel with veggie cream cheese is a must-try, as one reviewer found the place packed with satisfied customers. The restaurant seems to have a mix of hits and misses, depending on the order, but it remains a considered option for a quick and tasty bite.
The restaurant is decorated with raw bricks and cute signs, and the people behind the counter are known for their friendly demeanor. The bagels are light and fluffy, though they differ from the traditional New York-style bagel with a crisp crust and dense interior. Customers can serve themselves coffee, and the establishment is fully accessible, with a ramp at the entrance. Vegetarian options include the vegan bagels, though there is no vegan cream cheese available.
