This place looks unassuming from outside, but the adventurous bagel and cream cheese flavors will NOT disappoint. And their coffees and espresso drinks are arguably the best on that bustling block! The woman who runs it is sweet, friendly and feisty. I recommend an everything-jalapeno bagel with egg and cheese, along with a large iced latte!

Generally a little crowded on Fri/Sat nights, but pleasantly busy if you get there a bit early, or go on an off-time. Great selection of beers on tap, as well as full bar. BONUS: right next door to Seva Indian restaurant! (Our favorite.)
