Finally came to eat in-store and it's just counter service... the food is so good and delicious-- especially the egg-white salad !!! Bagels are almost as good as ones from NY, definitely worth a visit

Best bagel place in highland park! Literally have every &any type of bagel one could ever think of. Great deli meats too. Usually crowded on weekends throughout the morning but still great service.

NY Bagels at 1.5x the price. To be fair , Pretzel Bagels are a great option you don't often get in NY.

Be prepared for a mountain of egg if you order a breakfast sandwich . Not a bad thing, in my opinion, I just want you to be ready.

Refurbished at the end of July 2011, richer colors, big table for mini meetings, and the Clover brewing system so they can make your drink from a choice of beans. Thankfully, the great staff remains. - getmejeff Jeff Arena
