I have been wanting to try this bagel shop for a long time but it is always so busy. Turns out this place must be owned by the same people who own my favorite bagel shop, Bagel Love cafe! I’m super happy to say that this place had excellent bagel sandwiches! Can never go wrong with a bagel egg and cheese with pork roll.

A decent place if you want to have a tasty bagel every once in a while. It is a bit overpriced. The staff could be more proactive when the order is not completely satisfactory.

Best bagels in State College. Breakfast sandos and burritos are awesome. Asiago bagel with chive cream cheese FTW.

Everything bagel here really excels: possibly the best Everything bagel in town. Plain is good too, but other bagels are disappointing. Asiago and everything is just an everything with a couple shreds of burnt Asiago cheese on top (nowhere else in the bagel). Cinnamon Raisin bagel had all of the raisins and much of the flavor sink to the bottom, so the top half is just blah. And the worst is the Blueberry bagel which is 100% comprised of imitation blueberry pieces, along with that nasty, artificial blueberry taste too. If they had a genuine Blueberry bagel with real blueberries and an Asiago bagel with cheese baked inside, then I'd buy bagels here a lot more often. Also the butter they use is unsalted, so a heads up for those who want a regular, buttered, toasted bagel: you might want to ask for a little salt on it.

Toasting of bagels is perfect, but different bagel sandwiches are just ok. I only tried lunch-oriented sandwiches, not breakfast ones. And cold cuts are nothing special, even if the food seems pretty fresh. I can't say anything about the coffee since I haven't tried it.

Service is a hit or miss. Sometimes they don't get my order correct, especially if it's different than just the regular way they prepare something. I've never encountered rude customer service, but I do get the feeling that they really don't want to be working there. No smiles, no apologies for mistakes, and only the bare minimum communicated verbally. I'm fairly easy going, yet this customer experience is a bit raw. And I'm all for favoring and supporting local businesses who have the courage compete with the chains. However, to do so you at least have to make some effort to make Toasted a welcoming experience. I mostly just stop by to break up my morning routine, as there are better options in town. Perhaps they're nicer to regulars?

Finally, this place does offer a pretty chill, relaxing locale in which to grab something quick or hang out with some coffee. Sometimes the music is a little off-putting, but at least right now not as bad as some other reviewers mentioned. And I love the bagel handle on the front door. When entering I noticed that there's always a slightly off-putting burnt smell. May be this is just from the toasters that haven't been cleaned? Regardless, don't think they have a proper hood/vent for those toasters. I love a bit of a toasted smell, but draw a line when it just smells like something burning.
