womanatwomanat: Smoked salmon and cream cheese or ham, swiss cheese and eggs. They are simply delicious. In my opinion, it's better if it's toasted.

Ceres AnaSéline C.Ceres AnaSéline C.: It's not like I'm the biggest fan of bagels, but the toasted bagels w/ cream cheese or butter are great! If you don't want too much cheese, ask for less, because they certainly aren't stingy with it!

Christine Y.Christine Y.: WW bagel with veggie cream cheese! Plenty of seating and quick service.

Liz L.Liz Lesnick: Omelettes and bagels, lox and cream cheese are surprisingly delicious, and fairly priced.

L. T.L. T.: Lots of options here. They even have juices! And tofu cream cheese. The only outlets are by the Wall way on the back. Wifi works well but there's a 2 hour limit I think?

KarenKaren: Overpriced tuna wrap. $12. Although the bagel is also a tad overpriced ($4), it was very tasty because of the yummy cream cheese (jalapeño with turkey bacon).
