What can I say? The staff are very friendly, and bagel sandwiches are something worth writing home about. They are also happy to customize. I got a veggie croissant sandwich with cheese and egg. So good. Every bite was like a revelation of freshness. Give them some business!

Love this place. Ive been coming here since i was like 6, now 20. Its just a bagel shop, nothing really special, but its good. I think the shop got bought so its less homey than I remember but I still come for a lox bagel on jalapeño cheddar and a thai tea, still tastes the same. The service is straight forward, tell em what you want and they make it. I like that, but its not for everyone.

The staff was very friendly and helpful but not too fast. This was acceptable because they were extremely busy for such a small place. The only reason for the 4 stars is the quality of the rather expensive doughnuts. While they were decent enough, they tasted heavily of the semi-burned oil they were cooked in. It seemed as if the dough was not cold enough when put in the fryer and was just soaked right up along with that taste. I am not sure if this is a regular occurrence or not, but I would like to hope that it is not, and so I want to give them the benefit of the doubt. A mixed dozen doughnuts with 9 regular, 2 apple fritters, and a cinnamon roll was 34$. Google says it is cash only, but they now accept cards with a 5$ minimum. It was pretty expensive for that day's quality, IMHO. Overall, it seems like they did more business with their breakfast sandwiches, which, based on the menu and from watching the staff prepare them, seemed as though they would be quite excellent. Truthfully, these were not items that I was really expecting to find at a bagels and doughnut shop, but they seemed quite popular nonetheless. I would give it another try, but from the doughnut perspective, I wouldn't yet recommend buying them there. Hopefully, that was just an off day.

The bagels here are the best bagels I've ever had. They are perfectly slightly crisp on the outside but fluffy and soft on the inside and always fresh. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the marinara cheese bagel, instead of actually having marinara there was a tomato flavored cream cheese on it that did not taste very good. Their plain cream cheese was absolutely amazing though.

Used to come here years ago and their food was always good. I had not been back until today, 5/29/25, and I think new people own the place? I ordered two croissant sandwiches (one sausage and one ham) and they weren’t good at all. I also got a Asiago bagel and it was okay, I’ve had better. It was not fluffy and it was pretty dry.

This is a good place for a donut however the bagal......not so much. I always am greeted with smiles and they truly are nice but I got a "cinnamon raison" bagel that had only 3 raisins and no cinnamon flavor and the look of shock when I brought it back to ask them if they could put just a few more raisins in them next time was almost to the point of how dare you... I didn't ask for a refund or make a big deal about it, I even was going to wait till the customers in line were taken care of first. I replayed the scene from casino about the blueberry muffin....I could have but I didn't. Good donuts but the bagel needs flavor

Went on a mystery car run today, we met up near the doughnut shop. Of course me being a doughnut lover I decided to stop in and get a maple filled bar. The inside has plenty of seating, a refrigerator for drinks and a counter "doughnut rack" I ordered a maple bar and asked if I could get it cream filled? "She said yes" Ok now for the doughnut: unfortunately it was dry and the maple did not taste good. The cream filling had kind of a tang to it "like it was spoiled" so the service was ok 3 stars but the doughnut unfortunately for me it's one and done. Sorry I can not recommend them :C

Quality is okay. I had pesto bagel with cream cheese. Bagel was very chewy. We also had almond croissant which wasn’t the best either. Service was okay, I wish they were nice to the customers. We went there since we live right across but I may not go there again. It’s not worth it.

Watch for hidden costs. $3 Apple Fritter on menu board cost $4. Reason…it’s a little bit larger so charging me $3.50 (not stated anywhere). And $0.50 for warming it up (20 seconds in microwave and not stated anywhere). After 25 years, with zero caring attitude for customers, not going there anymore.

I have mixed feelings about this place. The actual food: Almost everything I’ve had has a weird aftertaste to it. It’s a bit subtle but it’s there, and once you notice it, it’s hard to get it out of your mouth and mind. No complaints about the texture. The bagels are soft and fluffy and donuts have nice glazes and aren’t overly dry or sickly sweet. Atmosphere: surprisingly roomy for a small bagel & donut shop. Decent seating room. It looks like it hasn’t been renovated since the 90s but I won’t hold that against them. Parking: tons of parking nearby. The service: I’ve been here a couple times. Sometimes the service is good. Sometimes it’s really bad. Last time I went, I got 2 donuts and a bagel, and it was about $9. That seemed kind of high, so I asked to make sure I wasn’t charged for cream cheese and the guy freaked out on me and swore at me as he went to help the next customer. I wasn’t being rude or short with him. I was pretty sleepy at the time and if anything was rather sedate and calm when I talked with him. The lady that actually helped me get the food in the first place was very nice and helpful. Other times I’ve been here, no issues. Maybe the guy was just having a bad morning. Maybe he thought I was going to dispute the bill. I don’t know. Obviously I paid up but I definitely didn’t leave a tip after being sweared at. If I wasn’t hungry I just would have left out of protest for being treated so poorly. And for that level of rudeness I won’t be going back. O’Henry’s is about 2 miles away and is about the same price, definitely never had an issue there with the staff and definitely a better quality of food. It’s farther from me than this place but I just don’t want to deal with drama and rudeness over asking basic questions. Cannot recommend this place to anyone. Whoever that guy is, he needs an attitude adjustment or at least a stern talking to from the owner, assuming he isn’t the owner.

Insensitive customer service. Never coming back. I support small businesses but all they care about is making money and not the satisfaction of the customer. I wanted a plain bagel with cream cheese and they asked 1.75 just to put it on. I’m not satisfied with my order or my trip.

Every time I come in here the ladies have the worst attitude. And if you’re not ok with something they give you the mean look and start speaking to each other in a different language that makes people feel uncomfortable. The food is ok but the customer service is terrible

All Chocolate covered donuts at this shop taste like cleaning chemicals ever since the new owners took over. They will make you sick. When I tried to return the cleaning Chemical tasting tainted food they said "oh, it's just the ingredients, we bought this shop and that's the ingredients we got" they refused to refund me for a nasty donut and made a huge scene because "you took a bite". Well yes, I took a bite and that's how I know it's tainted with cleaning chemicals.
