They were able to split my order into two boxes, split the cream cheese into four small containers, and provide me with all the coffee and supplies I needed. Also, the bagels and Chai latte were delicious and so was the cream cheese! I'm definitely glad I swung by! I will certainly be back to try a muffin later. These guys made a great morning happen at work for a lot of people this morning! Thank you!

I would recommend pre-ordering the week leading up if you can't get there early. We went with the BEC on a cheddar everything, spicy boy on a cheddar jalapeño bagel and a hash brown on the side - YUM. The bacon egg and cheese was our winner, but each item was delicious. The everything cheddar might be my new favorite bagel in Grand Rapids! The spicy boy did pack a punch and did live up to the name, with a lingering heat. Those who love spice would be big fans. Set in such a cute area and the interior is a very cute, inviting space. Service was wonderful and inviting as well. Can't wait to be back to try more bagels!

I was finally able to walk here this Saturday morning to try Blacklist Bagels! It's run out of Chef…read moreShack, which is a small storefront that rents out to local chefs/businesses. They are only open on Saturdays 8-1pm, and I used to live farther away and it would've been difficult to make the trip to Eastown, but currently I'm walking distance to Lake Dr. It's a small store with about 3 tables inside, so mostly for takeout. I was expecting a line at 9am, but there were only a few people ahead of me! They do open advanced online ordering, which may help with the foot traffic. I ordered 3 bagels - everything, asiago, and za'tar ($8 for 3). They were out of sesame, and I got the last za'tar bagel. I wanted to make my own breakfast sandwich at home, so I didn't try their sandwiches or cream cheese this time. I also ordered a vanilla oatmilk latte from Toro Coffee (~$6), which had a pop-up stand inside as well. The bagels almost look "overbaked/overcooked," but they really just have that nice crispy exterior and fluffy inside that bagels are supposed to have! Being from the East Coast, I've complained a lot about there not being good bagels in Grand Rapids - but this is easily the best spot I've tried! I will come here again to pick up bagels for a special occasion!

They do some limited holiday themed desserts, have their everyday offerings like different flavors of croissants, breads, cupcakes, cookies, cake pops and sooo much more including sandwiches also! The people working the counter are always so friendly! I always have a pleasant conversation with them. Some of my faves include their chocolate cupcakes, carrot cake (which is gluten free!) and their biscoff cronut. I try to get something new to me every time I'm there. They have a nice large parking lot so there is typically no trouble parking and people are coming and going quite quickly. Pricing is very fair for the quality you get. This will always be my go to bakery :)

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. The customer service was extremely disappointing…read more Whatever happened to treating customers with respect? I was charged an extra dollar for butter without being told, and when I asked if they could correct the order, my request was refused. I then spoke with another employee at the drive-thru (Mars), but unfortunately the experience was just as unpleasant. It's a shame because they have lost a loyal customer over something that could have easily been handled with better communication and basic customer service.

As a few others mentioned, it's not the fastest service. We waited on average about 10-15 minutes each day for food/drinks to be ready. Overall it was a really positive experience and I'll definitely be back!

I'll be honest- our experience here was rough…read more Was the food good? Yes. The coffee? Also good. The issue was how long it took for them to fulfill our orders. We ordered 3 hot beverages... a hot chocolate, a breve latte with sugar free vanilla and a normal vanilla latte. We sat inside the cafe for nearly 30 minutes before our drinks were ready, surrounded by other grumpy customers. We overheard the shop saying they were closing early because they cannot handle the load of orders... the place was busy, but nothing different than your typical coffee shop on a Saturday morning. (See photos for reference) Overall, if you're in a hurry this isn't the place for you. But, if you can afford to wait 20-30 minutes for your coffee then no harm in trying them out.

Then the show goes sideways, no it sinks quickly with no hopes of recovery after trying on my side. For the record, the musicians on Friday were entertaining and filled the evening with good tunes. Store does live music Thursday night thru Sunday night. Slept on this review to try to be kind, even the song last night told me to be kind. Waited in line and watch some Barista Ninja make coffee orders and then vanished on our turn. Let's be honest to customers, if you are not the coffee maker warn them!!! Ordered and then he grabbed a bakery item from the chilled case, he was done with me. Then looked at me and said "anything else?". Yep, sure is, he just took my order and forgot, .... was just waiting on my drinks. Then had to tell him what drinks, he then read from a printed off instruction sheet like it was a calculus quiz. On 2nd drink he literally pulled an ice cold cup from the pastry case, which from my view I hoped it came from under it. NOPE. He handed me drinks and as I walked my knuckles were chilled by the cup. Hopeful, I asked husband to tell me if his was hot. NOPE, so mine was a iceberg and pretty sure he royally messed it up as it now is my worst latte in my life (100% coffee could not ever be worse). Yes, worst. I walked back, he looked at me like I was lost, told him they are cold. He stood firm on looking at me with no apologies and I said again they are cold. Still, a look of what you want me to do lady. I put my finger in my drink and said these are cold, just microwave them. They were busy and felt that was fair. Think microwave setting on my chilled cup was 15 seconds. I took them to the table and one sip and blah, chilly and worse latte ever, pretty sure it was 80% milk and a splash of flavoring. The tall male faux barista should be banned from the coffee area. *believe your customer *if you can't make something - don't *coffee cups should not be kept chilled *apologize when you get it wrong
