The Maine sea salt bagel is world class, I’m not sure it can be beat. People laugh when I say the best bagels are in Portland but I never hear them talking after picking up a dozen on the way north. Only noms..

Very good local bakery, and while the bagels are indeed good, I would take issue with the folks throwing superlatives around like these are the best bagels of all time. I went twice on a recent visit to South Portland, the line Saturday morning at 730 am was already down the block. Coffee and other pastries were also very good. Very much a must if you are nearby.

Went for first time this AM. Couldn't believe how long the line was down the sidewalk....then I tried a bagel and realized why! Best bagels & scones I've ever had, hands down! And their system moves customers through very efficiently.

Some might say the bagels are too bready but I love them. The new space is set up well, so the line moves quickly. I haven’t seen as many vegan baked options recently but there’s always something.

Great sandwiches and food bread. My kids devoured several chicken salad sandwiches, which is an unusual miracle. They're very good at what they do.
My one complaint is that the pretzel bread had a strongly phenolic (look it up) flavor that was off-putting enough that I wouldn't order it again unless it's addressed. I don't know if it's a lye bath process problem or sanitizer left over from dishwashing, but it's not ok.
I would go back.

Most unique, soft and flavorful bagels I’ve ever had. The sea salt bagel is perfectly coated in a light crust of salt. We also tried the hot pepper, ham and chive scone and the ham and gruyere croissant. We are up visiting family in the area and when we return, we’ll be here for breakfast everyday! Everything looks scrumptious.

One of my favorite places for lunch or sweets. Great array of delicious sweets here! And, they make a mean Cuban. Some sandwiches and alternating soups. Amazing salads with fresh veggies!

Great place, friendly service! Go early though, it gets busy quickly
