This is my first time coming here. I was in the area and it was Saturday morning and I thought I…read morewould try out this place. 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.

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.

Crestline Bagel Co is a nice little spot just off the beaten path. I grabbed an egg, sausage, and…read morecream cheese bagel sando and it was thick and hearty... exactly what you want when you're trying to justify a carb-heavy morning decision. Best part... they are NOT stingy with the cream cheese, which I deeply respect. If you're going to commit to cream cheese, commit. I also snagged a chocolate donut that was light, fluffy, and topped with just the right amount of frosting. Fully worth the calories and the mild shame that followed. The staff was a little underwhelming, but to be fair it looked like a squad of high school students who would rather be anywhere else... including arguing with their parents about curfew. If you're here for food and not Broadway-level customer service, you'll be just fine. Solid bagels, good sweets, and plenty of cream cheese... which is really what matters.

I visited this place with a friend around 10:15 on a Saturday morning. When we arrived, the parking…read morelot was relatively empty, but quickly filled soon after. We ordered our bagels and then sat down to wait. The reason for the 4 stars is because we did not get our bagels until 11:05, and with an apartment tour at 11:15, this did not give us much time to enjoy our food. It seemed crazy that it took so long to put cream cheese on a bagel, and I feel like their system for preparation could be improved. Despite having to eat fast, those bagels were phenomenal. They were fresh and coated in the seasoning. Both of use got veggie cream cheese, which was surprisingly light and tasty. Neither of us felt heavy after this meal, which is normal for me when I eat cream cheese. All in all, this place was quite good and I will be back for more. Just remember to either come here early, or to not have immediate plans after the visit.

Ordered the Turkey panini on Asiago Rosemary bagel. The bagel was fresh and stacked with good amount of cheese and meat. Turkey and bacon had a good smoky flavor. It needed a dressing or condiment as the sandwich was a little dry. It was tasty overall, but maybe a little on the pricey side. The other downside was no chips or sides. Definitely need to try it again for breakfast sometime.

We were greeted by the owner himself on arrival and were thanked that we came! And was also curious of how we heard about this place. Staff: The staff he has working for him are professional, super polite and knowledgeable about there items they sell. Facility: super clean and tidy Bagels: fluffy and dense with a smooth soft bite. Great flavor. If I'm being picky, I like my bagels with a little more crunch on top and a little tougher bite. The wife for a salt bagel, deff needed some more salt on it. Cream cheese spreads: assortment of spreads with great flavor. Cream cheese is a little more dense than my personal liking. Our orders: steak, egg and cheese bagel with sun dried tomato cream cheese spreads on Asiago bagel. Con's: wasn't much steak in it and it was more small pieces of cheesesteak style meat cooked into the eggs. Sausage, egg and cheese on salt bagel. Con's: lack of salt on bagel and not much sausage. It was also cooked into the eggs. Jalapeño cheddar bagel with plain cream cheese. Overall: I would recommend to any bagel fan! Also, I forgot to snap a pic of the bagels but I can assure you they did not last long. The man himself said these bagels were good and we were certainly not let down!
