I don't know if I'd usually give this bagel place four stars, but I thought the other review I saw here was unfair so I had to balance it out a bit. This is exactly what you'd expect from a bagel place in a strip mall in central NJ. The place is small, smells great and has an open counter and cooking area. Their bagel selection is pretty solid--nothing too fancy like you'd see at The Bagel Tree or some of the other places I've visited in northern NJ. Their onion has a nice snap and their cinnamon raisin isn't too sweet. Unfortunately like every other place, they've succumbed to the "gigantic bagel syndrome." Puffing bagels up with air to make them seem huge loses their depth and chew and leaves you wanting more. But, this is the case with most bagel joints lately, so it would be silly to punish them in particular for this. You can also get egg sandwiches cooked on frying plates--not microwaves which is a nice. This place is worth checking out.
