This is a great little breakfast spot in the Riverwoods. I like how you can choose what kind of bagel to put it on, and the carnivore is a great amount of food. I’m looking forward to coming back soon!

The everything bagel was good! But the avocado spread that I got for the add-on wasn’t seasoned at all. I added salt & pepper to make it more flavorful. I wouldn’t recommend the avocado spread. If I come back I would try my luck with the hummus spread which seems to be the only other vegan spread option. Price is pretty affordable for a bagel shop.

This place is fantastic. We went here once and came back the very next day. The hours are great, the staff is polite, and the food is fantastic. They also include sides in the meal instead of that annoying, add-on crap most places are doing nowadays. But the food… wow. I’ve ordered the club bagel on asiago cheese twice, and it just blows me out of the water. My boyfriend ordered the nox bagel this time and it was phenomenal; perfect amount of salt and complimented with some capers. They also offer toasted options. Their side options are great. The mac salad tastes amazing and the pickles are perfect. Their coffee is fantastic. It’s creamy and just the right amount of sweet. I ordered a mocha which was extremely smooth and velvety. My boyfriend got caramel macchiato which had the same quality. I’m pretty sure the owner took our order, and he was very talkative and friendly. He did frequent quality control checks with us and was always checking that the tables were clean. Also, the dining area is spotless. Overall a grand experience. Will be coming here often.
