I live locally and will always find a reason to enjoy a fresh OJ, mango juice, blueberry streusel muffin, or an “el sunset” bagel; all of which are well under $10 and therefore a STEAL in SF- tip them well!"
"We were on our way to a state park and grabbed some bagels and coffee to-go before our drive. Staff were attentive and kind, prices were excellent, and the menu selection was great for everyone to get something good. Favorite was the egg and cheese with ham!"
"Love the food, coffee, and music was delightful and cheerful, awesome place to take a break and rest! I had a house made sun-dried tomato cream cheese bagel with a large coffee while taking a break from work- it was great! Came back here in April 2025, sunny afternoon, had a quick lunch with a Yummy Salami sandwich and a cup of coffee- delicious and recommend!"
