Crema's Take
“Brookside Bagels makes bagels that actually taste like bagels should—light and tender instead of dense and chewy—which explains why regulars drive out of their way to grab half a dozen at a time. The place gets slammed during peak hours, so call ahead, though be prepared for some inconsistency with made-to-order items and pricing that skews high for what you're getting. It's ideal for a quick breakfast run if you time it right, but don't expect anything beyond solid bagels and traditional coffee drinks.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Quick-grab spot. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
