    Creme Brulee Milk Tea

    Super cute little place! Amazing drinks (the creme brûlée milk tea is my favorite) and very kind staff. Was not expecting my favorite bagel place on this side of town to be a boba shop! Great place to come and do work/homework solo, or paint tote bags with friends. Also love that they have a stamp card!

    Such a nice atmosphere! I loved the little games they had on the tables, and they also have tote bags you can paint, which I found so cool. They have a stamp card too and once you stamp it 8 times, your 9th one is free. Definitely worth a try the drink was super sweet if you have a sweet tooth! :)

    The best in town! I just found out about them on Monday and have been back 4 times already. The only place I ever went back to for milk tea.

I absolutely love bagels and this place definitely did not disappoint. I was boring and got the plain bagel with extra cream cheese. The cream cheese was so good and they put just the right amount on there. I also got a caramel iced latte which was equally delicious. It's a small little shop. They did have a bathroom. There is some seating in there, but mostly people were picking up is what I saw mostly. I will definitely be back to taste one of their other bagels.

I promise, Crestline Bagel is as good as anywhere in NYC, and Homewood Bagel seemed to be following that program as well. However, upon entering Homewood Bagel and sitting down today, I noticed that the table had clearly not been cleaned since the breakfast orders had ended. This should be automatic for any food service establishment, yet no one came to assist even though they saw me sitting there cleaning their table. I'm going to assume that the owners or manager will address this promptly and I will return. But I used to be a lawyer for the county health department, so I will be looking closely to see if this hopefully temporary problem is resolved.

    What a charming bakery/coffee shop in a super cute almost European nook in town. If you're…read morevisiting, I definitely recommend taking a drive to this area. Progressive area - Seems to be... There wasn't line when we got there but the crowd usually follows us for some reason so by the time we left there was standing room only and a line out the door. The bakery items were very fresh and tasty. I loved the Swedish gingerbread cookies - light and crisp. The lemon bar was delicious. They also have sandwiches that liked really good. Coffee - I got a vanilla latte extra sweet (no lavender) and my daughter said it was one of the best. I thought it was pretty good. I would go again when back in Birmingham!

The young girl making the coffee was loudly talking about someone who messed up their coffee order this morning and how frustrated she was. The only other employee was occupied with what seemed a large order of bread etc. When she finished what she was doing she looked at the now five customers, claustrophobically waiting, and said I'll be right back and disappeared. Leaving the one guy serving the one customer. It was 11:30 am on a rainy day. Figured I could do without a cream cheese croissant and coffee and left. Had already waited 5 as the only other person in there and did not want to wait another undetermined amount of time. I know one of the bakers. It's a shame the front has been so bad these last two times.

    I do not frequent Einstein Bros on campus often, as it is out of the way of my classes, and their…read morehours are quite limited. However, I headed over there to meet a friend for breakfast today. When I visited in the past, I was met with annoyingly long lines, but I got lucky today and didn't have to stand in line since I missed the breakfast rush. They have a menu with a wide variety of things to choose from, but they're mostly known for their bagel breakfast sandwiches, so I ordered the bacon and cheddar egg sandwich. The employee at the counter was nice and put in my order quickly. My food only took 5 minutes until it was ready for me to collect. My sandwich was not the most flavorful, but it was hot and neatly put together. I got the Santa Fe breakfast sandwich the last time I was there, and I loved it, so I'd recommend that instead of mine today. The seating availability was fine for such a small building, but I don't like how they arranged the tables really close together. Overall, I had a pretty okay experience, and I'd recommend this place for a quick bite in the morning.

    This week, I went to Einstein Bros. Bagels on UAB's campus. This restaurant has been one of my…read morefavorites ever since I was a freshman and lived in McMahon Hall right above it. I got the All-Nighter sandwich, which has an egg, bacon, cheese, and their sauce on a cheesy hashbrown bagel. This sandwich is my favorite. The sauce really sets this sandwich apart form a normal bacon, egg, and cheese bagel and the cheesy bagel makes such a big difference. The sandwiches are always made right when you order them, so they are always super warm and the cheese is perfectly melted. It can get kind of busy, and you can be waiting for a good while but overall it's not bad. The staff is friendly and they have a great variety of breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, bagels with cream cheese, coffee, drinks, pastries, and more. Einstein is always my go to when I want a warm, delicious breakfast.

My friends also said the Expresso Martini was way too strong. The staff was amazing and accommodating. The problem we had is that we had a group of 12 on Saturday at 10:30 for brunch. We called on Thursday for reservations which they don't take. They did tell us to have 2 or 2 people come in at 10:00 and they'd work to seat us. They knew we were coming and had a phone number if there was a problem. I received no call. We were provided a table for 8 at 10:30 with 2 two seater tables. This was not ok. The manager did work with us to scoot empty table to our large table so we could all sit together. Water was promptly provided and drink orders taken. Then food orders taken. Food came out before drinks. I know it's hard when there's a large group but I felt it should have been staffed appropriately knowing we were coming. Our group had a good time because we weren't rushed and we got to visit. For people that need to know, there's no handicap parking at all and we needed a spot. Parking is quite challenging so prepare for that.

    I have been wanting to try this restaurant ever since they opened the one in downtown but have not…read morebeen able to make it until today. I am in a women's group that plans various brunch's lunches and dinners in the BIRMINGHAM area. One of the ladies made a reservation weeks ago so they knew that we were going to be at least a party of 12 to 14. It turned out to be about 12 when they got the tables together. There was just one full table of about eight people and then two other tables which weren't close to us so they ended up putting an extra table in so we could all sit together. Since it was a Saturday morning, it was pretty busy. Parking is a bit cumbersome. I pretty much had to make my own spot so that was a bit frustrating. I don't think I saw any handicap spots. I arrive there about 1015. We had to wait 15 minutes to get our table which wasn't too bad. When they came around to take our orders, we gave them our drink order and our food order. Several of us got some alcoholic beverages. I was a bit surprised that we didn't get our drinks until after we got our meals. I chose to get the vanilla French toast which came with spiced peaches, but I did not want that. I wanted strawberries which they told me they were out of. My friend next to me got a breakfast board and lo and behold. She had strawberries on there so I asked again for strawberries and the young man said they didn't have any and then I pointed to her board eventually I got strawberries and was charged five dollars for them, which I wasn't told before hand. I did get the espresso martini, which mostly tasted like vodka. It was very strong and not very tasty. Also, the glass was very small. It looked like they only had two bartenders if that you could definitely tell they were behind. All in all my experience, there was not very good. I don't think I will be back. I had a brunch plan there next month that I decided to change to a different location. Rachael was our server and she did you the best she could. She had no control over the drinks. I also asked for extra napkins, which I did not receive. It seemed like it wasn't very well staffed for a Saturday rush.

I enjoy the Teriyaki Chicken/Broccoli rice bowl, and then for my second option the chicken tikka masala soup. It comes with a baguette that is usually toasted. The loaded lemonades and teas are also pretty darn good, esp if you have the SIP Club! The Sip Club is something I got during their free for a few months period, and I enjoyed it! The pastries are always good, and usually hot. The best bagels are the Asiago Cheese bagels with cream cheese. SO good! I used to get them when I was a young teenager, and the love has carried on! It's been several years of enjoying these bagels and I always think they are delicious. I have had the meal I listed about a couple times, and it's fairly pricey but very filling. The prices are a little confusing as you may think you're paying for a "Pick two" when you *are* but you're also getting upcharged the meal of choice, so it's a tad confusing. The second time I went and got this meal, the manager at the front tried to talk me out of getting the Chicken Tikka Masala soup as I enjoyed it before, but she thought the Chicken and Wild Rice soup is better, and asked "well, have you tried the masala?" I said yes, that's what I want. I appreciated her honesty, but I didn't ask for the opinion of which one was preferable. I think that this was a bit odd. But otherwise, i enjoyed my visit at this location. it's in a really good part of town, in the middle of a very family oriented location. i will definitely be returning.
