My daughter and I finally made it over to Rainy City Bagel Shop yesterday! I've been wanting to try…read morethis place for a long time and finally did. It didn't disappoint. The bagels were great! Easy to eat...meaning not hard or super chewy. Toppings were fresh and the bacon was crisp (although I wish the bacon serving was bigger). The fresh squeezed strawberry lemonade was really good! Obviously low sugar and tasted so fresh! Service was good and the owners are friendly! The place also has a nice atmosphere. Price point seemed a little high but the food and drinks are super fresh so I'd still go back. We paid about $40 for the two of us with a tip added on. Definitely check this place out for yourself! It's worth it!

Looking for authentic and delicious bagels, challahs, focaccias, tarts, and other sweet treats?…read moreThere is a fairly new vendor addition to the Mcminnville Grange Saturday Farmers Market that could go toe to toe with many of the more widely known metro bakers. The husband and wife team showed up several months ago and they are a welcome addition to the diversity of offerings available right here in the Willamette Valley. We sampled the bagels for the first time today and they could not be more perfect. Bagels are meant to be chewy and Cat and the Fiddle describes their bagels as "unapologetically chewy" and we applaud their honoring that time worn texture! Last week we sliced the Brie stuffed challah, which is round, toasted it in the pan and served a poached farm fresh egg on top - magnificent taste and texture. Finally for dessert the chocolate rugelach is a rare find anywhere, because it is labor intensive and the goodness lies in the quality ingredients and the skill of the roller. The Cat and the Fiddle serve to elevate these Jewish baking traditions. A worthy Saturday taste adventure!

Needless to say, I could not recommend this with more enthusiasm than in this writing

I bought cheese from Jacobs Creamery at the Woodstock farmers' market a few months ago and was…read moredisappointed to find it was frozen when I got home. It was especially disappointing because I literally asked them to recommend a creamy cheese to have with the bagels I had just bought. Why would I want frozen cheese to put on fresh bagels? Also, there is no reason to freeze fine cheese! The whole point of spending money on expensive local cheese is to get something fresh...freezing it completely defeats the purpose and basically ruins the cheese. I tried messaging them on Facebook months ago to address the issue privately, can see that they saw my messages but received no response. Lesson: Don't buy cheese here unless you want weird frozen cheese!

The women didn't hear her and went on about how she can't understand her, because she was mumbling so badly. My daughter is super shy. I should have walked away, because she was so snippety to my daughter, but went ahead and bought their overpriced cheese anyway. When I got home, I ate their cheddar cheese and there was something on it that tasted spicy and burned my lips - it actually made my lips chapped over the next week. I sent a polite email to them to give feedback and asked them what was on the cheddar. I was concerned it was some sort of chemical. It has been over 10 days and they haven't responded. I guess they don't care about their customers. I don't recommend doing business with them.

Bagels by the Sea - Review…read more We stopped into Bagels by the Sea while visiting the area and had a mixed experience. Food & Drinks I ordered a cinnamon raisin bagel toasted with a side of cream cheese and an Americano. Unfortunately, the bagel came with the cream cheese already spread on it and was wrapped up in a bag with other hot sandwiches. By the time we opened it, it was a bit of a soupy mess. My Americano tasted decent enough, but it was only lukewarm when it was served. I drank about half before it got too cold to enjoy. My husband ordered the Eggle Bagel with bacon and a white chocolate mocha. He said the bacon was good, but overall the sandwich didn't have much flavor. It was okay, but not something he would order again. The coffee was decent. My grandson had a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese and a hot cocoa. His bagel ended up being a soupy mess as well because the cream cheese had melted after being wrapped up with the hot food. He did say the hot cocoa was delicious though. Atmosphere The atmosphere was cute, eclectic, and overall inviting. It has a fun little seaside café vibe that we enjoyed. Service Service wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't particularly welcoming. Staff weren't rude, but there wasn't much warmth either. One thing that puzzled us was that they toasted the bagel and immediately spread the cream cheese on it before wrapping it up, which made it pretty messy by the time we ate it. We also ordered our food to eat there but were given everything in a to-go bag, which added to the feeling that maybe dine-in wasn't really encouraged. Pricing Prices were about what you'd expect for a seaside town. Overall, it was an okay stop, but with a few small improvements in food prep and service it could be a much better experience. Would we return? Probably not. We would just look elsewhere for a better experience.

They make them in house!

I'm so sad to write a negative review because I was so excited to try this place since we hadn't…read moreeaten here since the new larger location. My husband and I arrived 1-1:30 today and we both ordered burgers. My husband ordered a bacon blue cheese burger with steak fries and I ordered an impossible burger with Swiss with shoestring fries. My husband's ordered arrived first and the fries were normal fries not really steak fries, but they were hot and tasty. The waitress said that mine would be coming shortly and that they were waiting in the fries. Upon my husband's first bites of his burger he discovered it was totally cold. He took it up to the counter and then my dish was dropped and it was the same issue. The waitress took mine back and dropped his plate again and told us if it isn't ok then we could get a refund. This was when we discovered the burger was microwaved (still had his bites taken out of it), and the fries sat out while the burger was in the microwave. Yes, now we have a microwaved burger and cold fries. Knowing this how they handled his cold burger we decided to just get a refund and go somewhere else for lunch. I think this issue arose because they served the food for a table of 5 or 6 people that placed their order after ours. The big table got their food before us. Knowing what happened to our food and seeing them eat before us made the conclusion pretty simple, their order should have never been processed before ours. This is why the waitress said the kitchen was backed up. It was just a big fail. I think the problem is that everyone working there was very young and I feel they were very inexperienced in having the skills it takes to work in a kitchen, serve food or deal with customer service. When the cashier did the refund of my husband's meal, she only refunded his. I asked if she also refunded mine since they had it back for the same reason, she asked, "oh, you want yours refunded too"? I'm not sure how this refund is going to work with doing two separate refunds on one ticket. I checked our bank and the charge was pending so I will have to follow it for the next couple of days to see where it puts us. Honestly in my opinion, she should have refunded it all, including the tip. They kept the tip. We will give this place another try in 4 to 6 months to give them time to work out their issues. Hopefully someone will see this post and work on additional training.

Not enough toppings on the bagels, and definitely not enough cream cheese. Bagels had a nice crust, and soft interior, but were more bready than bagel dense, and a little on the dry side.
