Sebagel could not be in a better physical location! About three miles from the turn onto State Park Rd heading into Sebago Lake, you're going to want to stop here before heading to the beach for the day: the bagels are fresh! the coffee is great! the service is outstanding!
While the space is obviously new and sparkling clean, they've done a good job making it still feel somehow like an old Maine cabin. Always appreciate a map highlighting all the local vendors a business uses, and currently Sebagel is supporting a whole bunch from literally one end of the state to the other!
I've had the Everything and the Rosemary-Sea Salt:
1) THANK YOU, Sebagel, for adding seasoning/flavor to both the top AND bottom of the bagel. Why don't more places do that?!
2) The Everything bagel is more onion-y than others I've had. Not a bad thing! It's fun that everyone's Everything is unique, but a heads-up in case you're onion sensitive.
3) My partner loved the bagel texture, he thought it gave "pizza dough" vibes. Do with that info what you will.
4) They currently are offering an unflavored Kite Hill as their vegan cream cheese option for non-dairy folks. It would be nice to see them invoke the old Maine Bagel (RIP) approach and offer plant-based cream cheeses that they themselves add flavor to: a chive, a veggie, a chili crisp, etc.
5) Skip the cream cheese per bagel, and order it by the tub if you like your spread embarrassingly thick (... I do, so no judgement). It's a better deal anyway.
Pretty good bagels, friends. read more
