"Our VRBO was super close to this coffee shop and we picked it because they offered food (beyond pastries). Loved our bagels with turkey or ham and cheese. Really good! Service was friendly and fun. They dealt with our out of town longer decision making and questions. The space is compact. There's actually quite a bit of seating, but it's a popular place for gathering. We were lucky to get a table. As busy as it is with people and decor it is also cozy and you aren't on top of people. During warm weather they have a great patio space too. We enjoyed their shopping area and picked up a few buttons for book bags as well as notebooks. This space is all about inclusion and social justice. I appreciated it, including the names on various banners. A reminder that we still have work to do. And to take care of each other."
"Ordered the bacon jalapeño jam bagel and a plain bagel with cinnamon honey butter. The bacon Jalapeño jam bagel was good 8/10, and the plain bagel 7/10. Good bagels , but I found it a bit too chewy. The variety of cream cheese is lacking , I wasn't wowed by it like I was in NYC @liberty bagels 11/10. Maybe I just like variety but for me it definitely wasn't as good as New York bagels by far. I wouldn't be able to tell this bagel from a bagel from krogers . They tasted the same ."
"I was really craving a lox bagel this morning and looked which option was closest to me. This lead me to visit "Born 2 Bagel" for the first time. The craving was most definitely satisfied. Loved the bagel and the lox! Absolutely delicious. The service was friendly and quick. I will most definitely be back."
"OK, I've been coming here for a while now. It's nice to be able to get a delicious bagel sandwich and a very good cup of coffee for the same, or lower price of just a cup of coffee at the big name store.The service is great. Even though it looks like they get crazy busy on the weekends, everyone is friendly, and service is quick..And, I'm supporting a locally owned business."

My partner grew up in the neighborhood, so this place has always been a funky staple! He is a big fan of the Fred Espresso, while I like to try their many different interesting options! There is lots of inside seating, and picnic tables for enjoying nice weather. You order at the counter and while they make your order, you can peruse the gifts and eclectic items for purchase! In my many travels, I have yet to find a place like it! We always visit when in town, and highly recommend to many!

Still my favorite bagel spot ever! Had to stop in while visiting Lex from out of town. I am gluten sensitive, so I got a GF garlic bagel sandwich. Took me back to my college days. The gals at the counter were super helpful and patient as I contemplated what to order!!! I also got a French toast bagel for a camping trip the week after. Froze it and it tasted fresh when I ate it. Only wish they would open one up in denver!!!

Really enjoyed this spot- and so does everyone else! I came on a saturday morning and this place was PACKED. We were lucky to score a table but I think the food is worth it.We got the breakfast plate and a lunch sandwich, both of which were delicious. The quality of the bagels is good and you can tell there is love poured into everything they do here. Overall: I'll be back but I might get it to go!

Southland bagels was one of the first spots I tried out when I first visited Lexington and it's a fan favorite! The service is always friendly and fast. Their menu is full of great bagel sandwiches but even if you're not in the mood for a bagel sandwich their bagels taste great on their own with any of their cream cheese flavors they make in house! The ambiance is fun and has some great nods to science fiction and comic books on their walls! Overall, a great bagel spot!

'Ats what I'm talking about. Look at this beautiful platter. Tastes as good as it looks. Plenty for two. Micro greens under those tart pickles.

Obsessed with all the magic that Ouita creates, especially when it comes to baked goods! Love the seven layer bars, the lemon squares, the cookies, the sandwiches. All of it. Love this place and it's a definite stop by at least once (more, preferably) when I'm home.

If you're looking for some awesome bagels, this place has it. My brother went here and brought us some bagels and we were surprised how good it was. My husband and I came here and tried their egg sandwich on maple bagel and it was outstanding. As someone who lived in NY for 20 years, these are some good bagels.

Today's my birthday and I came to Frankfort to celebrate with a family reunion on the bourbon trail. I discovered this donut shop a couple of days into my trip and have been talking it up so this morning my hubby and brothers surprised me with my favorite breakfast back at the hotel. These donuts are FRESH! Happy birthday to me. Donut forget the coffee!

"I tried every bagel here and there was nothing short of 5 stars delicious, hearty, filling and fulfilling sandwiches! These are easily the BEST bagels and BEST breakfast sandwiches in Lousivlle! Each sandwich is more seductive than the other and the taste screams quality! You get what you pay for! Located inside the Logan street market so they're closed Mondays! It is family friendly and spacious atmosphere and good customer service, every bagel comes with complementary smile. Their hours should allow you to find easy street parking too! Don't sleep on this spot! Bon appetit"
"We learned that Midway Bakery made the desserts for Wallace Station so we decided to go straight to the source for dessert. Nestled right outside the darling town of Midway Kentucky Midway Bakery appears to located in an old school. The building houses both apartments and the bakery. Walking inside the bakery doors your senses are awaken by the wonderful smell of fresh baked goods. We had the cinnamon roll ( make sure to have them warm it up) oh my dripping in buttery goodness. Our second pick was the Wolford cookie, it looked like a chocolate type cookie but there was a surprise, not chocolate but a delightful spice. My husband said it reminded him of Christmas. The entire bakery is in sight of the counter and is immaculately clean. It is worth a stop."
"Bagels tasted just fine, but the odd way they have of displaying them - stacked on a rod - results in smooshed bagels that I wouldn't want to serve to guests. Surely they can find another way?"
"This is the best donut shop in Kentucky! They are so fresh, and everything you could want in a donut shop. YAY!!"
