I have Celiac Disease so bagels are out for me. I met someone there and I had coffee. It was fine, but a little pricey. Not starbucks quality, but same price I guess they really wanted to lock up at "closing time" as they were very rudely were putting the chairs on top of the tables all around us. I was not time to close yet, They had about 15-20 mins before they were to close but they decided it was perfectly fine to walk to the tables all around us and put the chairs upside down on all the other tables. I have worked in restaurants for many years, from fast food to sit down to diners and I have never seen this before! Yes, you need to put chairs up to clean the floors. But you do not do that until the people who paid to eat or drink have finished up. There are many other closing activities you could work on instead! If you want to try go mid-day. Who knows what it is like when they are opening, you may have to pull your own chair off the top of the table?

Looking for a good, standard breakfast bagel place? This will hit the spot. Cafe Bagel is not pretending to be a fancy brunch spot or the next Starbucks, but is instead a good value (for two good sandwiches and two coffees we paid less than $17) with quick service and a good amount of variety. My mother got a corn jalapeño bagel with a crab cake filling that was startlingly strong. I went more simple and got an Asiago cheese bagel with ham, cheese and egg. My bagel could have been a bit cheesier, as the Asiago flavour was far from overwhelming, but it still tasted fresh and had a good chewy crust. There was both cold and hot pre-brewed coffee available. The next time I come I would like to try some of the impressive looking sweets - there were cookies about as big as my head! Give Cafe Bagel a try :)

My wife and I moved around the corner from cafe bagel and were excited to have a bagel shop close to home. The food here is not bad, but the service is unfortunately awful. We got home recently to find our bagel was missing lox, and when we called they said well you could come back. We passed on this figuring the next time we were in wed reference this and theyd make it right. Unfortunately the manager today thought he was in a spot where he couldnt be heard when my wife sent the cashier back to ask about this. He responded what the hell do they want me to do about it? Done with this spot and Id encourage anyone who goes to check your food before you leave because once youre out the door and youve paid, they couldnt care less about if youre satisfied.

I have been going here for years. Until today. Today, after eating I filled up my coffee (one refill permitted as per the sign) and left, only to be chased down and grabbed by the owner and told NO REFILLS IF YOU ARENT EATING IN. Well, she hadnt seen me in the place because she was cleaning in back, but when I went back in, several staff confirmed I was in the right. She chased me down and grabbed me. Bloody insane. I have been going there three or more mornings a week, but no more.

The food isnt bad, when they can get it right. Unfortunately, that doesnt happen often. Worse still is that Ive been in this place when it first opens, when theyre about to close, and throughout the day and it is NEVER clean. Truly one of the dirtiest restaurants in the area, which is a shame, because its a cute little place. Weve been disappointed for the last time.

Food is good, but its staffed by well intentioned kids. So sometimes you wait 25 minutes for two salads. Staff us usually friendly, unless their moody. Place is often run with no sense of urgency. Coffee is good, and they serve Boars Head meats, which is a big bonus in my book.

Bagels are good. Teenager help is nice. Owners, not so much - not friendly. They recently plastered a sign above the soda machine basically saying not to drink so much soda because it costs them a lot of money... Sorry, but Im taking my business elsewhere.

Great bagels and breakfast food. Itd be nice if they had some more mature employees besides all high schoolers.... its nice for them to try n give them a job but I think there needs to be some more experienced supervisors at least .... food is still good tho

They are a simple bagel place but their food is delicious, especially their BLT on their everything bagel. The service is good, the staff friendly. My family loves their bagels and we drive 20 minutes out of our way to get their food all of the time!

I love my Cafe BAgel because I am a coffee sipper and live alone. I usually take an hour to drink 1 large cup and the place is great, and since Im the only one drinking it, making individual fresh brewed cups of coffee are the best way to go.

Nice place. Very clean. Service is quite good considering the amount of traffic they get. Good selection of food and, though not cheap, not too pricey either. We go occasionally to get out, and because its close, easy and good.

They only have plastic stirrers for the coffee. Havent seen those in a while - sends a message of cheapness and lack of safety concerns to their customers about plastic leaching. Food/coffee nothing to rave about.

They messed up our order and then the High School kid behind the counter would not even fix it. They refused to give us our money back. We have never ate there again. Just terrible service from employees who dont care.

Quick service when ordering a breakfast bagel sandwich. Good flavor, but it was not the most fresh bagel Ive ever had. Decent variety of sweets/pastries. $5 minimum on debit/credit card purchases.

Its a moderate priced lunch...no more then a panera. Food tasted great, Bagel was nice a fresh. Service was fast and friendly. Will return if I am back in the area around lunch time.

Quick and friendly service. Boars Head meats. Good deli sandwiches and bagels. The pastries look great but I havent tried them. They serve breakfast too

Only giving 2 stars because they had previously given good food. My omlette today was partially burnt and chewy. I wont be returning.

A decent bagel. The best in the area, but thats not saying much. They have chocolate chip bagels which are my kids favorite

The lady in the back is really rude. If you want better service, drive 5 - 7 minutes to Bagels n Grind by Arundel Mills.

Great bagel breakfast sandwiches. Dessert items are questionable in terms of freshness. Good coffee options.

Food is overpriced but decent quality. It gets expensive for 2 people to eat breakfast.
