Also they have other food and we really enjoyed coming by and getting something to eat. I highly suggest looking at the manual prior to going there because it could get busy and so you want to be prepared when you are up next in line.

I was only recently introduced to Uncommon Grounds so I was excited to try another location. The…read moreline was so long but it moved pretty quickly. Friendly service. Seating was a bit of a wait. It seems like people like to hang out there. We did get a seat. We both got the Mediterranean sandwich. I got mine on an everyday bagel and my friend got it on a rosemary bagel. My friend was very disappointed in her bagel. She said it was very "bready" and lacked flavor. Mine was just OK too. It didn't taste the same as what I usually get at the other location in Delmar. It was just as big and had the same ingredients but it just didn't taste the same for some reason. It actually had an overwhelming amount of avocado on it and it kept falling out. The vanilla chai latte was delicious!

Cheddar Parm Bagel toasted with Salmon Cream Cheese is outstanding! Good combo…read more Glad I did not order my usual Everything Bagel because Cheddar Parm was perfect. Crust is crispy with natural cheddar flavor and hint of parm. Plenty of places to sit on a Tuesday at 10:30. Sipped my Columbia Decaf coffee and people watched. Service as usual was efficient and fast.

Solid bagel shop. From a Brooklyn Ahjumma…read more Line moves quick, thankfully, but always a line. That always means, they have good offerings. We came early, around 9am... and on a weekday. Long line - lots of regulars, lots of workers picking up a bagel before heading to work. We dropped off our son for college move in and picked up bagels for breakfast. Got 3 bagels - plain toasted, w/ cream cheese; plain toasted with avocado, egg & cheese; sausage egg and cheese. All very solid. Bagels were soft inside and chewy, with crispy outside. Just like the city. Wish there were more seatings, it can get packed easily and with the line, can be overwhelming. The smell will be infused to your clothes. Ah well, smelling like a toasted bagel, not the worse scent. lol

There's a big ordering and waiting area, so even when it's busy there's plenty of space. Local art on the walls, a variety of seating options downstairs, and one relatively clean restroom. Upstairs is the computer lounge, theoretically, except that the advertised WiFi doesn't work. There is no network with that name. Friendly baristas, some food options, although not a lot for vegetarians. Great location close to the park.

The new location is nice but I feel it might be to big and actually prefer the smaller orginal location.

I got great service here today. Unfortunately, great service can only go so far when the inventory…read moreis depleted. I came in after lunch, and at least half the bins for their varieties of bagels were empty, and others didn't have enough to get a half-dozen loose bagels of the same type. I hope they can replenish the bins a bit more frequently. Fortunately, I was able to get a half-dozen bagels of a second choice - didn't realize that the size of the bagels had changed either. This is still a good place for things like bagel sandwiches. If you want loose bagels, I guess you either have to come in early in the day, or settle for whatever is left. I do see that some id of a business manager, named Robert but with a woman's image, provides a reply. I hope this is an actual person and not some app scraping my text and generating a reply.

This place (finally) replaced a previous vendor in the same location that sold coffee, baked goods,…read moresandwiches, drinks, etc. It seemed to take forever for this place to open and we anxiously looked every day as we walked by for progress. Finally, it is here! I don't drink coffee but I do occasionally need a rush of sugar in the afternoon and I missed the cookies sold here. So my friend bought me a cookie on opening day to try out. It was huge, very thick, and just so-so. It was very dry, and I suspect that they baked a LOT of cookies in advance of their opening day and this one got stale. To preserve the integrity of my review, I thought it prudent to try another cookie a week later which would probably better represent their "normal" offerings. It was much better, though still way too big for one person (yes... I can't believe I am writing that). So I split it with my friend. This place usually has a line out the door of about a dozen people, but we have timed it and discovered it cycles through in about 10 minutes or so. So don't worry about the wait.

Stopped in today at Village Square and the store was filthy-tables and floors. But the bagel was amazing. They are concerned about reaching goal of 80%. My advice- strive for 100%. You're sure to get 80% for the food and another 20% if you work on cleanliness. P.S I bussed my own table.
