    Turkey and Cheddar on Asiago bagel breakfast sandwich
    Angie O.

    Stopped by on a Monday morning around 10:30am as this sounded like a great place to get a quick breakfast before the journey back to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It was so much busier than I anticipated for the time of day. As I waited to reach the counter to place an order, I saw others orders being taken to tables. It all looked and smelled incredible. Sadly, there was a problem. The menu is posted behind the counter, like how it is at Panera or fast food restaurant, is approximately 15-30 ft away, depending on where you are standing....in size 14 point font. Maybe it was 16 point, not sure because I couldn't read it. I couldn't even read it when I got up to the counter. Now, my eye doctor did say I might need readers soon, but this was a challenge for my distance vision and I just changed my contacts. Once I realized I couldn't read the menu, I looked up the website to read it from my phone. There were only very specific sandwiches listed, which was not helpful as it clearly did not reflect the menu posted. Everyone around me must have known the menu by heart and had no issues ordering. The line went quickly, Too quickly for me to even ask someone else how the whole operation works. Then I had to become *that* customer, the one who has to asks several questions and hold up the line because they are clueless. I noticed customer after customer going through the order line beside me and I just started panicking, so I spit out "turkey and cheddar," then the dreaded question: on which bagel? I could barley make out the signs posted on the bins with the bagels, and Asiago it was. Because I'm from Wisconsin and I like cheese. Tables are fairly close together, so not an intimate setting and not a place for personal talk. I felt far too involved in conversation taking place at the table beside me. It took a few minutes before the bagel arrived. It was massive, it was delicious, it was much better than I anticipated! There is a reason this is a popular spot. Highly recommend as long as you are not short on time (if ordering in person), but have an idea of what you want ahead of time. Apparently it's a BYOB - build your own bagel [sandwich] - but I'm not really even sure what is all offered. Hence -1 star. Also, I apologize to everyone behind me on that Monday morning.

    I built my own breakfast Sammy with an everything bagel, egg, cheddar cheese, sausage, cream cheese, and avocado and it was AMAZING!!! Super messy to eat but so worth it. I also got a vanilla iced latte and it was great. Only 4 stars instead of 5 because of how expensive. $40 for 2 sandwiches and a large iced coffee. But it was one of the best breakfast Sammy's I've ever had.

    I wish we had Third Street Bagel where I live so I can try more bagels. They had so many options which is overwhelmingly exciting but terrifying because which sandwich do you choose! This was my first meal of the day before going on hikes so I chose the Middle Eastern bagel. This included fresh hummus, tomato, cucumber, and sprouts on a garlic bagel. Refreshing yet divine!

    Sausage egg and cheese

    I walked in and instantly loved the shop because it was very clean and organized. The dining room has a good amount of seating for the size of the shop. The cashier was very polite and was happy to share her favorites with us. The wait was quite long, and I was the only one there. However I could easily plan for the next time to expect a longer wait. The looks of breakfast sandwich made me very excited! The bagel is large, and the size of the scrambled eggs was proportionate to the bagel. The sausage was quite small compared to the bagel and egg leaving a good amount of bites with out the meat. I had to take mine Togo and realized there was a large area that the bagel was over toasted, slightly burnt, but it made the bagel very dry and hard. I was surprised to find a lack of flavor because I had "The Works" bagel similar to an everything bagel, however some salt and pepper could have helped.

    I've been here a couple of times. I like that you can order breakfast all day and that there are vegetarian options. The bagels have always been fresh, but if you go for lunch they are always running low or out of certain varieties. The inside was recently renovated, and it looks very nice and modern. They definitely need to hire more people

    Hour and ten minutes for a bagel with cream cheese. What was once the epic breakfast spot of town, is now just a washed tourist trap

    Java Bay - Breakfast burrito with a side of bacon

    Java Bay

    Small dining area. Order and pay at the counter. 7 tables. Small place…read more There is black duct tape on the floor, their cobbled stone linoleum is coming up. Why is this place even called Java Bay? They only have regular coffee or decaf. They give you a mug if you would like their coffee here. We took a pass. My husband prefers lattes or mochas or flavored coffees. The staffer at the counter suggested we go across the street to Velodrome Coffee, since they have no good coffee options. We will have to stop by elsewhere to get a decent coffee for the hubby. Ordered the mushroom omelet, side of rye bread and the hash tag. No berries for the sweet oats & berries - can't order that then. I wasn't able to get a physical receipt. I was told I will get an email. It's been over an hour and no email so far. Would it be so hard right print out a receipt for me? At the moment I am regretting our choice to come here immediately. Our order decreased by their unavailability of key ingredients for the oatmeal. We could have gotten hot oatmeal for free back at the hotel and wild berries at least. They have no non-pork sausage or non-pork options at all. Just eggs as a substantial meat option. :( Not an extensive menu for sure. There was a short blonde, light brown wavy hair at the bottom of my omelet, found it after two bites into the omelet. It was sadly at the bottom of the omelet, so, I didn't see it until I cut into it. Gross. I brought it to the staffer's attention, she couldn't see it. I had to pull it out in front of her to see it. She didn't manage to apologize and instead asked if I would like her to remake it, or what, eat the omelet contaminated with hair in it? This breakfast experience gets worse by the minute. I had to wait for my redo of my food, she informed me it would take 10 more minutes. Thinking it was because the skeletal cook in the back has other orders to do for the folks that arrived and ordered after us to get their food. Another table of food out for another group of guests that came after us. I got to eat my omelet about 15 minutes after my husband finished his breakfast hash tag. The hash tag was okay. Oh good. I finally got my redo mushroom omelet 15 minutes later and after two tables that arrived and ordered after us got their food before my redo food due to a hair. I see they have their priorities in disorder. Good for them. My second mushroom omelet has no hair in it. Yay! The only flavor is pepper on top of the egg, which is wrapped over the eggs, tomatoes and mushroom. Mushrooms are good, lack luster as far as flavor though. At least they use fresh mushrooms. The rye toast is soggy from the omelet. And they placed two butter packets on top and over the toast. I am sure many hands have been on these packets. This breakfast trip has extended over an hour of our life. I am left thoroughly disgusted and disappointed in the abominable service of this place. Not super comforting hearing the cook in the back sneezing, twice. Hope it's just allergies. I am glad I can't see back there at all. Given the output of the food so far. Cleanliness and good customer service doesn't seem to be a thing here.

    Waited 34 mins after they opened for this. Nope. Not coming back. We were just the second order…read moreright after they opened. All three cook and wait staff keep running the mouth talking about their weekend so hence the long wait time. The omelette egg quality was under par, not enough cheese, the toast not even hot enough to melt butter. No milk or any hot chocolate to order. Very little coned beef in the corn beef hash. Just crap.
