These are probably the best bagels in West Hartford, but given the lack of high quality…read morecompetition, that isn't saying too much. Maybe their reputation leads to overly hyped expectations, because my breakfast sandwich was just decent. There's nothing bad about the food, but also nothing too exciting. To be fair, I ordered some straight forward breakfast bagels and haven't yet tried their more unique menu items. The bacon egg and cheese was not very cheesy. Egg and bacon were both good. I asked for chipotle mayo, which as an additional $0.50 add-on, was a half-hearted portion. The bagel itself (went for an everything) was fine. Again, to be fair, I'm a born and raised Montrealer so coming from the home of the best bagels in the world (come at me, New Yorkers) it left something to be desired. But I don't blame Goldberg's for that- as I said, it's probably the best in the area. I also got a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese. I appreciated that my request for well toasted was listened to. The bagel itself had nice flavor, sweet enough without tasting like a dessert. Could have had more raisins in it. The amount of cream cheese was satisfactory, even for my husband. I believe the biggest turn-off about Goldberg's is that you can't just roll out of bed and head over to grab a bite. They suggest you place an order 45min before you want to pick up (this is probably only true on weekends). You can order online, which is helpful, but if you're just trying to cure your hangover with a hearty breakfast, you probably don't have the foresight to plan so far in advance. All in all, I wouldn't give up on them. I don't think the basic breakfast sandwiches are worth recommending to others, but I will be sure to go back and try some of their other more interesting sandwiches. Stay tuned.

The Bagel shop is in a newer developed space along Route 4 (aka busy Farmington Avenue). The odd thing I couldn't get through my head was how the site was designed. The back of the shops face out to Farmington Ave and the store fronts and parking are in the rear? Usually it's the other way around. Terrible advertising for the businesses. Just the same, I managed to stop, ordered two Everything bagels with White Fish spread and a large dark roast coffee. I was met with "...white what...". I repeated and added, "...its Jewish thing, which is delicious on a bagel. " Sorry we don't have that." Hmmm . Well I'll have a thin smear of creamed cheese, which they had plenty, on my two toasted Everything bagels. I prepped my coffee and in a flash the bagels were packaged and bagged. I was given a "have a nice day". Get in my car, unwrapped the First bagel, ahh an Everything. Later the second was unwrapped back a my home office and a Toasted Sesame Seed jumped out at me.

Their iced London Fog was also very good. Wasn't as crazy about the bagel I took home, but I'm biased because if it's not a kettle-cooked, New York bagel, it just isn't the same for me. But this is West Hartford, not Westchester or Fairfield County, and there's a different expectation there, so I'll let it slide. ;)

I say this so readers will consider that my perspective may not be the same as those that live in the area. So with that caveat, I must provide this disappointing review. To begin with, Sally & Bob's is located in a very busy area with very limited curbside parking so that even getting there can be an inconvenience. Once we arrived, the staff was slow to seat us and slower still to take our orders. I'm not talking about a place that isn't rushing you to order, more like somewhere that could care less about their customers. The food was decent, but nothing special. I will not be returning or recommending it. Candidly, my impression is that it seems to be a place that caters to locals who know: 1) not to wait to be seated, 2) what they want to order as soon as they sit down, and 3) know the staff consider them "regulars". If this is you, it may very well be what you're looking for as there is no "hurry up, eat and leave" approach.
