Bagel Oasis

I love bagels from bagel oasis! I also love to buy their flavored cream cheese for use at home. Their food is tasty and delicious, but dining in leaves something to be desired. The space is mostly empty and when ordering in you still receive your food on a paper plate in a plastic container with the side and pickle individually wrapped- I was disappointed in the amount of waste generated from eating in. This space is better suited for a quick drop-in (ordering to-go).

Low key hurts me to give 4 stars as I used to live down the street from the place, went here easily over 50 times and my sister worked here, but it hasn’t changed in a decade and it definitely needs a change soon in terms of interior and vibe… the bagels are great though! And they recently updated the outside signs.entrance so there’s that too. I’ve heard many interesting stories from my sister about working there but none of them terrible to make this lower then a 3 star, and none of them too alarming. Although this is much closer to a 3 star then a 5 star I will say that. Just come here for the bagels, and eat it at a park nearby. The shared bathrooms are pretty disgusting and the space feels kinda dreary and dirty, so trust me when I say just quickly getting your bagel and don’t dine in. Also, don’t get anything else then a bagel…unless you really want it, but its a bagel shop, so don’t be that guy who gets the weird soup or whatever. (Again unless you really want it) After living down the street from this place for 16+ years, my go to order was a sourdough bagel and either normal cream cheese or strawberry cream cheese. That’s another thing, their cream cheese’s are homemade and very very good, try them. This is probably the longest review I’ve ever written and I could probably go on but I’ll stop here. Enjoy if you do go.
