On top of that it was 4 dollars for lukewarm coffee that tasted like water. Hairnets or hats definitely needed to be worn as well.

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 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.

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.

He used to pay your bill at the cash register but now you just pay it directly to the server. Parking can be a little difficult, especially on the weekends. Our server was very attentive. I did visit the bathrooms and they were very clean. This is definitely a place. I have on rotation for breakfast.
