| - I've been in this place a handful of times, most recently to get a bagel and a coffee for breakfast. The market itself gets a couple stars for being clean, well organized and having most of the basic essentials one might need - the overpriced, organic health food version, but the essentials none the less. There's a also decent selection of cold beverages - both alcoholic and non.
The breakfast experience drops this from a 3 star to 2. There's a take out and seat yourself dine in area for breakfast and lunch, but don't think that you can just pop in here quick for a coffee and bagel and be on your way.
To get a bagel, toasted with cream cheese, you must first pick out the bagel from a self serve case, then bring it to the cashier, explain that you want it toasted with cream cheese, then the cashier hands it off to the cook. 20 minutes later someone elses bagel arrives, with melted butter all over it and a small amount of cream cheese. I didn't want to wait 20 minutes for another, so I just ate what I was served.
To be fair, it was messy, but tasted decent. But if a basic chain coffee shop can get the bagel I ask for, toast it without smothering it in butter, give me a decent amount of cream cheese and get me out the door in a minute or two, why can't this place?
