Always fresh, always friendly, always delicious. Also feels good to support a local independent family business. The bagels here are made with 100% wood heat, unlike others in the west island who use gas. Lovely family and great service every time. This is a take-out only place, but you can order a bagel sandwich, latkes, knish, etc. to eat right away. My only complaint is no Liberte cream cheese, but I'll live. There is an assortment of Philly as well as smoked salmon frozen for take-out.
