Best Bagel

So much smeerrr!!…read more Stopped by for some bagels and they had a variety of fresh bagels to choose from except and everything bagel. You can order you bagel roasted with any of their specialty cream cheeses. I got their Lox cream cheese with a marble rye bagel. The bagels are a good size and they were not stingy with the cream cheese! It was loaded! The cream cheese was very creamy and smooth! There is not much seating so we ordered our bagels to go. The workers were very nice and worked very fast. The shop also offered coffee and cold drinks to go and they also had some goodies to buy such as coffee beans,/T-shirts. This place is super cute and cozy and perfect for a quick yummy lunch.

Shame on me for not taking photos of the spacious outdoor seating. They have additional narrow…read morecounter seating on stools inside. That's a huge plus and easy to miss if you're just skimming reviews. Now onto mine. Counter service with self serve coffee and tea. Good selection of bagels (they have rosemary, which not everyone has) and spreads (they have whitefish salad, which not everyone has), plus breakfast sandwiches and more ambitious lunch sandwiches. I found the service excellent, the pricing more than fair, and the bagels pretty good. Even though they're not cracking my greater Boston top 5 or my New England top 10, the bagels have a nice texture to them: chewy, but a lighter brand of chewy, kinda like a biscuit. That texture grows on you as you try more of them. The pumpernickel bagel was a little light on flavor but the onion bagel made up for it. The rosemary salt bagel was much heavier on the salt than the rosemary, but still good. I'd go back.

My wife and I saw their current monthly flight offering and knew we needed to try the flavors. Was the perfect time of the year to visit this location. Not too cold but before the busy tourist beach season started. Just like their other location great vibes overall with friendly staff who greet you and wishing you a good day when leaving as well. Some great window seats or outdoor seating to do some people watching. Lots of flamingo decor and just an overall welcoming space. Also if you are a fan of flavored coffees they absolutely nail the flavors so well! Their current flight included Strawberry Cheesecake, Butterfly Chai (lavender & honey), key lime pie, and raspberry lemon tart! My wife loved their chai the most while I enjoyed the raspberry lemon tart most. After the flight my wife got a larger sized chai and I got a s'mores latte! The s'mores flavor was phenomenal, best s'mores flavored coffee I have ever had! No food this visit but they do have a good variety to pair with your drinks. If you are looking for great vibes at a coffee shop for your Hampton Beach visit check them out! Flights are the perfect way to sample a variety of flavors.

The person running…read morethe register made me feel like I was bothering her by just ordering, no customer service, she seemed completely disconnected. That's not the worst part of the experience. After I ordered I waited as my sandwich and other customers orders were being prepared in front of us. I watched in disgust as flies were crawling all over their open containers of cream cheese, jams, and other sandwich ingredients. I was then shocked as a fly landed on a customers sandwich and neither the two people preparing the food, the cashier, or the manager seemed to even try to shoo the flies away. Finally I saw a fly land in my sandwich, again no reaction from either of the cooks, they continued to prepare the ingredients as the fly was in my food. There were about 5-10 flies buzzing around all over the entire duration I was there. They gave me my food, I took it, and immediately tossed it when I got home. I will not be coming back here and I suggest anyone going keep a keen eye on the environment their food is being prepared in. It's a shame because their product looks good, but the sanitary conditions are shockingly poor.

That being said there was a very long line when I got there- there were only 2 people I could see working.

Plenty of street parking right out front so no issues on that aspect. Stepping inside you are welcomed to a lot of art on the walls and an overall rustic feel to the space. They have a good amount of space for you to sit and enjoy your drink and food which we did. Service was friendly and quick by staff who made it a welcoming space. They have a huge menu so everyone will find their drink and possibly flavor to make them happy. Including a variety of seasonal special flavors. My wife and I both ended up going with their iced gingerbread mocha and both got their breakfast sandwich The Works. The sandwich was a sausage egg and cheese with spinach and tomato. A well made tasty sandwich, although some may find it has too much spinach on it. I think despite already being a sandwich with a lot some avocado spread would be a perfect addition. Drink wise they had good flavor and you can taste the high quality of the coffee used. First time stopping here but look forward to revisiting in the future and will search for their beans for coffee at home for sure!
