Bagels & More

Stopped by on a farmers market Saturday. What a cool place! The line looked long but moved super fast. We were pleasantly surprised. We ordered the salt bagel and avocado toast. PLEASE order the whole wheat sourdough bread. INCREDIBLE. Some of the best avocado toast I've had in a while. Especially in south central WI. The iced vanilla latte was perfect and tasted exactly how I would have expected. My friends got the breakfast burrito and it looked HUGE. Overall would recommend for a breakfast/coffee stop while downtown Beloit :)

Cute cafe in downtown Beloit. You stand in line to order and get a number and find an open table. I ordered by bagel to go and sat outside. Waited about 10min in line and then about another 10min for my food. Bagels were yummy. You could also buy a 6 pack of beer, packages of coffee, and other pastries and snacks to go. Seemed like a popular place on a Saturday morning, but also not much else to do in town in the morning. Parking easy to get

This is the only authentic bagel place close to Rockford Illinois!! Luckily, it is very very good!You can see from my reviews. I've had bagels all over the country, and these are pretty good! Considering the dearth worthy competition they are a 10 out of 10! They give you the bagels, and then you toast them yourself, which is great with me, because I like mine double toasted. High-end grass fed butter too.I can't overstate the importance of having access to a good bagel place. Before my wife excepted a job in Rockford, I made sure that there was a bagel place nearby. Sure I have to go to another state but it's worth it.Bonus: the unsweetened iced tea is very good, if you are a real tea drinker, you will appreciate it!Double bonus: terrific rice crisp treats!Fun fact: the nice artwork on the walls is for sale!

Ordered 6 Asiago cheese bagels to go. Gave me 6 wheat bagels. Didn't realize it until I got home. Called three times to complain and no one answered the phone. Bad service.

Rude Manager!! Refused to acknowledge that the only raisin in a bagel does not make a cinnamon raisin bagel. Sheesh!I asked for and was denied a replacement or a refund.All previous visits over the last 5 years were terrific but, this time was inexcusable.

Went here on a Saturday for lunch and were surprised that there were actually bagels available to try. In the past when we had been here at 10am, they were all sold out. It was a pretty calm environment for lunch with options of tables to sit at. Someone was quick to take our order at the counter, and the food was ready by the time we paid! Highly impressed for ordering a hot sandwich. We ended up doing a make your own sandwich on the multigrain bagel with turkey, gouda, and lots of veggies. It was a very impressive stack by the end that I felt like I had to unhinge my jaw to get my mouth around. It was quite tasty however. The only thing I wish is that the bagel could have been toasted and the cheese a little melty. It also came with a pickle spear and an M&M oatmeal cookie. We also got the ultimate chicken bistro sandwich. There was a lot of pesto on it, but it shockingly wasn't very oily. There were also nice chunks of chicken and vegetable, but was surprised by the cauliflower and broccoli. Overall, it tasted very good and it also came with a pickle spear and cookie. Then, to try more of the bagels, we got a cranberry, multigrain, and the new apple cider bagel which seems more like a donut. Hoping the sweet bagels will be just as good as the savory.

There's typically a cloud of confusion when talking to these workers, all but the older blonde who seems to be the owner or manager, so customer service isn't bad but it's not great either. I once got a grilled cheese that literally took them 20 minutes to make and wasn't completely melted when we got it. When I ordered it, the girl looked at me like I was silly and actually asked me if I wanted it hot or cold. WHY WOULD I WANT A COLD 'GRILLED' CHEESE?! Another time I ordered a BLT & the bacon was so hard and chewy it was painful to eat. Today we got egg salad sandwiches, hence finally writing a review. There's almost nothing on this, and one side of the bread was soggy. The other side was a weird sized end piece. This sandwich is like $8! Do better. (The sweets & Mac N Cheese are literally the only reason to come here until they up their game a bit.)

We stopped in twice. Everyone was friendly & helpful. Cute little place.We had a bagel & cream cheese and a butterfinger frappe drink on the 1st visit. Our 2nd visit we had an everything breakfast burrito and a caramel apple vanilla chai.We enjoyed everything.

Love this place. So busy on Saturday mornings when the farmers market is going on. Bagels are so fresh, you can order one or one dozen. One Saturday we took advantage of the buy one get one fresh baked bread. We got the rye. So so good. They even sliced it for us. Hold me back!!!

Jennifer the manager is so rude!!! Before my husband & I could even say a word, she was passive aggressively informing us to only order food and to wait until we get to the counter to order drinks. Jennifer had a poor interaction with some customers before us, but that doesn't give her the right to take it out on my husband and I. The rest of the staff is so kind...their manager could learn a thing or two about customer service from them. This was a very disappointing experience as the food is really good.
