Holy smokes. Rockstar Bagels has moved into the top spot.
Arrived at 1:20 on Sunday. They close at 2pm, I knew we were a little later in the day, and was expecting later in the day bagels, but they were still pushing out orders to-go and at to eat there.
The menu is a little confusing.
They have a BYO lox bagel for $11, but you pay 50 cents addt’l for veggies, and I added tomatoes, red onion, capers.
But I realized they have a Diamond bagel for $9 that lets you pick your protein and comes with up to three veggies.
So maybe I over paid for what I got? I asked for clarification on the menu differences. If anyone knows why those two variations exist let me know.
Ok taste profile.
This was my favorite bagel so far. The chew was great. Good flavor, not super dense, and the ingredients inside all meshed well together with good proportions. Mine was a little pushed because it was cut through all the way and I smashed it trying to separate, but my wife got the same thing and it was stacked beautifully.
At this point I’m really comparing the texture of the bagel, the quality of the internal components, and how it all works together, and this one was really good.
Staff was friendly, decent parking, though I bet during peak times it’s a little hectic, but according to the sign, they do prioritize online orders, so place that order ahead for pickup and just grab and go unless you want to eat there and enjoy the view of Chicon.
The iced coffee was not good. So I’d skip that entirely. Haha.
