It all started with the purchase of a dozen mixed bagels, a container of strawberry cream cheese, and a sample of blueberry cream cheese spread. OMG, there was just the right amount of chewiness that screamed freshly made and not doughy like those made from pre-packaged frozen dough. It has been decades since I have eaten a bagel that took me back to my days in Greenwich Village to the Potbelly Bagel Cafe on Christopher St. NYC. It wasn’t just the bagels and cream cheese...read full review
Delicious food and friendly owners/staff with fair prices. Bagels are perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Plus, they freeze and defrost better than any other bagel I've found in the area. Cream cheese spreads are high-quality and homemade with a wide variety. Deli sandwiches are well-made with fresh ingredients and they don't skimp on the portions. This has become our go-to bagel spot and we're really glad they opened. They don't disappoint.
Always a great place to stop for a bite!
