Always a little bit of a very polite mishmosh of folks standing waiting for their orders. I guess that's part of the charming atmosphere ?

Took my grandson here for lunch recently. We waited in line quite awhile for our bagel dogs. After eating we approached the coffee counter to purchase some coffee. The gentleman behind the counter said we would have to go back and stand in the lunch line to be waited on. Then as we were waiting a fellow said he could help us at the coffee counter. I asked him if he could recommend a certain kind and he responded in a grumpy tone that he did not drink coffee. That night I woke up very ill, suspect food poisoning. Very disappointed. I used to love Hermann’s Boy. Will not be returning

Just an old world shop. Great coffee, fun menu and old decor which is just awesome. So much fun walking around looking at old coffee cans from all over the country, unique bbq gadgets and all kinds of home made food. Worth the wait when you go during busy hours.

Old school coffee shop and bagel place with amazing food for insanely good prices. They do specials occasionally like shepherds pie that actually have loads of meat in them unlike so many commercial places.But you can't argue with a $4 bacon egg and cheese bagel with many more options. Coffee smells good but haven't tried it much. Definitely going back. Also 1.5 cinnamon rolls. It's like going back before companies got greedy from the pandemic.

Bagel sandwiches are pretty good. The coffee leaves a lot to be desired. Unfortunately the only roast they do is a full city roast. Cool homemade goodies to choose from. The cinnamon rolls are good! A place that is decent overall but I usually see it as a means to an end vs a place that I go out of my way to visit. Lots of potential, just more left to be desired. The one really nice thing is it is has good prices for the quality of experience.

I actually ordered their flavored coffee. Delivered in a very timely manner. Like the song says, "nobody does it better."

This place is great. I always get barbeque pulled pork on a bagel and a deluxe bagel dog. You cannot go wrong with that combo. The service is friendly and the prices are fair. I've been going here for ~10 years and am never disappointed.

This place was so overcrowded. I went during lunch time to buy some gift certificates for my mom and the line was so long. Also the parking lot and entrance/exit was very hard to maneuver. The staff here is very friendly and helpful. I wasn't able to get any coffee cuz I didn't want to wait in line even longer but I did get a cheesecake brownie which was so delicious! I highly recommend it. I would avoid this place at lunch time tho, especially if you are in a hurry.Parking: In front but very small

They were pretty busy and made our bagels first and it was a decent wait until we got our coffee so the bagels weren't the warmest. The bagel was okay but the coffee I got wasn't very good. The building and style are
