  I tend to stop by this place once or twice a month, especially since it's on my way to work. The variety of bagels, cream cheese flavors, and coffee flavors rival a lot of the larger chain stores. And, they all range from sweet to savory. I have yet to be disappointed in a flavor combination that I have tried. My only real complaint is that sometimes the staff appears stressed out, and it comes across in their interactions with the customers. However, I've come to expect that at this place and the taste of the food and drinks more than makes up for that. This place has a homey feel, and is definitely a welcome addition to the neighborhood. I especially love the fact that they offer a frequent buyers program, and which they have Punch Cards for every bagel with cream cheese and coffee that you purchase.

  You can find better tasting food at Dunkin, and better coffee at Mary Lou's. If you're looking for a quirky small-town shop, this isn't it.
  
  Ordered a bacon egg and cheese with an iced coffee (~$7.60). The egg was the same scrambled eggs that you find at a hotel breakfast, the sponge-like white stuff that doesn't have any flavor. The paper-thin bacon was of similar quality and difficult to taste. They actually overloaded the sandwich with the flavorless egg mixture, so it was difficult to taste the cheese.
  
  Given the quality of the above ingredients, I doubt that they make the bagels themselves, but purchase from the same mass-produced food supplier. I wouldn't be surprised if they bought all their food from Sysco.
  
  The bagels where not terrible, but lacked any sort of flavorful crust, and began to taste a bit stale after a few chews. Again, I like Dunkin's bagels more than these.
  
  I don't mind cheap coffee from Cumberland farms, which I know is watery, but coffee here has even less flavor. When I closed my eyes and drank it I wasn't sure I could tell that it was coffee instead of water with sugar and milk in it.
  
  Manager seemed to dislike the job, which was reflected in the rest of the staff, who also looked unmotivated and unhappy.
