The bagels were absolutely delicious - soft on the inside, perfectly toasted on the outside, & topped with just the right amount of cheese. Every bite was rich, fresh, & flavorful. Highly recommend if you're looking for a satisfying & tasty snack!
& the coffee was excellent - rich aroma, smooth texture, & perfectly balanced flavor. It was freshly brewed & full of depth, giving a great energy boost. Definitely a must-try for coffee lovers!

Thanks to all the previous google reviews I found & tried out this bagel place. & I was happy I did as these bagels were heavenly!! The bagel shop is not that big & is located in a nondescript lane with hard to find parking. But the first bite into the bagel sandwich put all my doubts to rest. By far the freshest bagels & sandwich ingredients, super soft & flavourful. Every bite was better than the one before it. Coffee could have been better but again I didn't go there for their coffee.

Great taste.

But today morning, I ordered three bagels & three cups of coffee, & two bagels & coffee were served. I said that one bagel seems to be missing, & the staff seemed to recognize that. but it didn't come out for a long time.

So I said it again & it only came out. Even No Apology.. Am I sensitive?
