Our Father's Day Breakfast: Bohemia's Little Bagel Shop

Hi Everyone!

On Father's Day, we visited Bohemia's Little Bagel Shop in Bohemia!

Bryan ordered a well-toasted sesame bagel with cream cheese. Rebecca ordered a sesame bagel with cream cheese.  Here's how we rated it:

Taste: 3 1/2
Atmosphere: 3
Service: 3 1/2
Cost: $4.98

We both enjoyed our bagels!  Rebecca especially was pleasantly surprised.  All of the sesame bagels were dark, which she usually doesn't like, but the bagel she had didn't have the taste that often accompanies the dark color of a bagel.  The store was very small.  There was NO seating area and very little room to wait.  We happened to arrive at a crowded moment and it was very tough to find a place to wait as people jostled to pick up their orders and new customers constantly entered.  Our server was very nice.  We received our bagels quickly and they came the way we had ordered them.

Overall, we were satisfied with our experience, but wouldn't rate this bagel shop among our top picks.

Hope all of the fathers out there had a wonderful Father's Day!  Thanks to dads for all you do for your children!

See you next week!

6/12/16: First Class Bagel Cafe East Northport

Hi Everyone!

Last week, we visited First Class Bagel Cafe in East Northport!

Bryan ordered a toasted bialy with cream cheese.  Rebecca ordered a light-colored sesame bagel with cream cheese.  Here's how we rated it:

Taste: 2 1/2
Atmosphere: 4
Service: 3 1/2

We were not impressed with the taste of our bagels.  We found them sort of dry.  The store was very nice, with ample seating area.  However, it was very confusing about where to wait once we had placed our order.  Our server gave us very quick and efficient service.

Overall, we were satisfied with our experience, but wouldn't highly recommend this bagel store.

Don't forget to check us out next time when we head somewhere new!

5/29/16: Lina's Tasty Bagels

Hi Everyone!

Sorry about the late post!  Just getting to post now after a busy week!

Last week we visited Lina's Tasty Bagels in Centereach!

Lina's Tasty Bagels
2065 Middle Country Road
Centereach, NY 11720
Phone: (631) 467-6045

Bryan ordered a toasted bialy with cream cheese.  Rebecca ordered a light-colored sesame bagel with cream cheese.  Here's how we rated it:

Taste: 3 1/2
Atmosphere: 2 1/2
Service: 3
Cost: $4.80

We liked the taste of our bagels!  While Bryan definitely liked his more, both of us agreed that they were, as the name of the bagel store implies, tasty.  The store was very small with extremely limited seating area.  In addition, it was very confusing as to where the line began, with a very confusing arrow sign that no one could quite understand.  Our server was nice, and our bagels came the way we ordered them (although Rebecca's bagel could have probably been lighter).  However, we received slow service, and did notice that some customers repeated their orders multiple times to different servers before they received the bagels they had asked for.

All in all, there were some things about this bagel shop that left us unimpressed, but the bagel tasted good and the price was low.

Don't forget to check us out next time when we head somewhere new!
