Yeah the Bergen Ave one is always super fast. Sip Ave one is run by morons.

Man I must be going at the worst times then because the one on Bergen always takes forever. Breakfast, lunch, whatever. Only thing they do that’s fast is taking my money at the register before getting me my order.

Maybe, I guess I'm generally there like 9, 930 which is probably after the morning rush. But even on weekends there aren't insane lines like downtown. Honestly crazy to me that downtown doesn't have another bagel place. There was that short-lived NY Nagel Cafe on Newark Ave that had grocery store bagels. Giant disappointment.

Place is still there but I think they go by International Cafe now.

Quite a hot take. The Sip Ave location is the only one I trust. They make a slammin’ vegetable foccacia and I love that they do a whole roasted turkey for sandwiches on Sunday. Been a while since I’ve been there so I hope they still do both of those things…

I say they're morons because the one time I went there and tried to get a bagel with chive cream cheese the lady looked at me like I was speaking a different language. After a couple tries and literally pointing to it I said scallion cream cheese. No dice. Green onions! Nope. Had another lady come over with no luck until a manager finally figured it out. Also they were out of egg everything bagels and that's my jam.
