    Service is genuine, lovely lady they have working behind the counter. First time here and I went simple with egg and cheese on a grilled, plain bagel.

    Chicken salad lunch special

    I order the chicken salad lunch special quite often. The special comes with a soda, bag of chips and a pickle. The chicken salad is very good. This place is very busy and sometimes the chicken salad is sold out It's a nice small business, that I will continue to support.

    Kudos for the daily fresh bagels. Bagels are soft on the inside but not New York style crispy exterior. Recently moved to Windsor, I have been seeking a bagel place west of the river that would be comparable to Steve's bagels in Manchester. Plan to eat in your car as based in a gas station next to a subway sandwich counter, there is no indoor seating and is entirely takeout.

    In mid 2012, the old Oy Vey Bagel Café on Mountain Avenue closed, then was re-opened and expanded as Isaac's Bagel Café. The name "Isaac" is well known in Bloomfield, it's the namesake of the very popular owner of Isaac's Convenience Store next door. Four years later, Isaac is at it again!. He just expanded to a second Bloomfield location, this time taking over Terry's Place - the former luncheonette inside the big Citgo station at that crazy busy intersection of Blue Hills Avenue and Cottage Grove Road. I stopped in this morning to check it out. The menu is exactly the same as the original location, in fact it's bigger because there is a fryolator station here and they can offer French fries with the sandwiches and wraps. The folks who work here are all nice, in fact I recognized a few familiar faces from the original location. Way to Go Isaacs- and congrats on your expansion and new place.

    I'm going to be a fixture at this delightful little gas station eatery -- it's been one of the best parts of moving 5 minutes away. For an unassuming little spot, Isaac's has an impressive menu of breakfast and lunch dishes -- including, of course bagels. They get their bagels delivered fresh from the original Isaac's location across town and they're pretty delicious. This little offshoot shares a space with Subway and an adjoining convenience store. We ordered a couple jalapeno cheddar bagel sandwiches with veggie cream cheese, lox, onion, tomato and capers - and they totally hit the spot. Takeaway is a popular option but there are a handful of tables to dine in as well. The employees are so nice!

    I have been craving for these bagels so long that I went yesterday and thank god I did. They are so fresh and delicious. Quick and very good service. Prices are very reasonable and a such a easy meal.

    Jalapeno Chedder Everything with veggie cream cheese.

    So since the Yelp weekly talked about bagels we ended having a hankering for a yummy eat worthy bagel. We stopped at the Isaac's II location since it was closer to home. The bagels served here are freshly made daily at the original Isaac's location and delivered just before 6am when the door open. We decided on half a dozen bagels. We picked 4 Cheddar Jalapeno Everything, 1 Baily, and the last Asiago Garlic. We also purchased 2 tubs of veggie cream cheese. We rushed home to toast up our bagels and smear them with cream cheese. So we toasted up one Jalapeno and the Asiago and cut them in half and each took a half. The bagel had a nice chew to it and texture. The Jalapeno Everything was good it didn't have a pronounced Jalapeno heat to it and the everything spices were missing the salt, the cheddar topping was very good. The Asiago bagel had a good amount of Asiago which lended it great sharp cheesyness and it topped with a lot of garlic which had a more caramelized garlic flavor to it which was quite nice. The veggie cream cheese looked be fresh in house made. You could see fresh shreds of carrot and pieces of green bell pepper and a think chives. It didn't have too pronounced of a veggie flavor to it. The bagels were very fresh and tasty that we both had two toasted and smeared bagels each so I would definitely go back for more.

    Good coffee. The meat lovers omelette was chock full of meat but devoid of any cheddar cheese. That was a big miss. The server never did the follow-up. They have a home brew house sauce that is very good and available for sale. The place is very clean.

    I have been wanting to stop and finally did with an EVERYTHING appetite. Nice small place, rather…read morequiet inside with one older gentleman who seemed like a regular. 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. No offense Sesame lovers, I was hugely disappointed my simple order got twisted. And to top off my dissatisfaction NO WHITE FISH SPREAD!

    Super nice owners and really nice space inside…read more I stopped by again recently and was warmly greeted. The person in front of me had a big order -- she loves the place -- but it moved quick and they were quick to fill my order. Got a fresh cup of coffee that was good. For me, the bagels here aren't my thing. I love a NY bagel, but these are just more like the type you'd get in the midwest (where I once was) or get from a grocery store. That said, they loaded it up with scallion cream cheese and price is right. Overall, it's a change from some of the other bagel places around here and there's definitely a market for it. As the person in front of me raved, it's her favorite place. For me, just ok.

They have storess in South Windsor, East Windsor, Manchester, Vernon, and Tolland, plus dozens of Big Y, Highland Park, Geissler, Price Chopper, and Shop Rite supermarkets. Their modern and very comfortable store interiors have the feel of an upscale bakery or café, so it's a great place to sit and unwind with homemade bagels, muffins, wraps, salads, lattes, frozen drinks, and more. The bagel choices have all your favorites (and a few more) like Blueberry, Cinnamon Raisin, Egg, Everything, Onion, Plain, Poppy, Pumpernickel, Sesame, Whole Wheat, etc. The bagels are pretty big -the one we had with cream cheese and smoked salmon last night was five inches across, so a half was enough. Yesterday I picked up a big bag of assorted goodies including an amazing looking Cheddar Bagel with tantalizing jalapeno slices. I have to seriously ponder what's going on that beauty! Any suggestions?

    Had a delicious egg sandwich made fresh. Still hot as I ate it. The prices are crazy high however…read more I do know I can get the same order for $4 - $5 less at another bagel shop. I did enjoy the piped in holiday tunes. I will stop in again soon to try a signature sandwich and soup.

There's always a little pressure when a dinner is part reunion, part catch-up, part "please let the restaurant be good enough to match the occasion," and Republic absolutely came through. The whole evening was fantastic. Shane took great care of us and struck that perfect balance of being attentive, personable, and making everything feel easy. He helped the night flow in a way that let us relax, laugh, catch up, and enjoy ourselves without ever feeling rushed. The dinners across the table were a hit, but my Moroccan lamb special was next-level. It was one of those meals where you take a bite and immediately stop mid-conversation because your full attention has been redirected to the plate. The flavors were rich, layered, and so unexpectedly good that I'm still thinking about it. Everyone loved their meal, the atmosphere made it easy to settle in and enjoy the evening, and the prices felt very reasonable, especially for how good the whole experience was. All in, Republic Gastro Pub gave us exactly what you hope for in a night like that: great food, great service, lots of laughs, and a dinner worthy of the reunion

The drinks in particular were very well balanced and thoughtfully curated. Ambience was cozy and upscale, with some prices to suggest this restaurant may be better suited for special occasions rather than your regular hang. Service was just-ok. No complaints but nothing special either, and the table near the door that we sitting at was probably near a heating vent because it was a little uncomfortably warm. Overall, yes, I would go back to dine here and I would recommend Republic Gastropub.
