| - A bagel a day keeps the doctor away. That's the saying, right?
I have been going to Gotham for years. I used to work right across the street and I would frequent this shop regularly. I love this place so much!
I get how some people who have to drive would be upset about the parking around the area, or about the no frills staff members, but as Bruce Hornsby would say, "that's just the way it is."
I find those negatives to be positives. Gotham has a New York feel, and while it may not be as authentic as a bagel shop actually located in the Big Apple, it is as close as it's going to get in Madison, WI.
Different from other bagel shops in the area, whose only requirement is that the college girl working behind the counter knows how to type in :30sec on the microwave, Gotham actually makes their bagels in house. They have a range to cook up food like eggs, sausage, bacon, etc. All of these things lead to an amazing breakfast sandwich. They have salads, soups, and other sandwiches that make you want to come back for more.
I have met the owner multiple times, and while he is a straight-shooting kind of guy, he is nice and set out to create a quality product that gives residents of Madison a little taste of the big city.
