The Bagelnaitor - 3.67/5  
  
Store  
A unique merging of bagel store services with fast food Chinese restaurant aesthetics. Brown tile floor, cracked and taped deli cases, tables and bikes piled in a corner. Contrary to being off-putting, I'm drawn to the atmosphere's honesty. It comes at a price of amenities: limited drink selection, extremely limited pastry selection and a sad collection of several cream cheese dishes. On the other side of things, an impressive bin of the longest flagels I've ever seen. The end score is 75% character.  
3.5/5  
  
Bagels  
Medium-Large bagel. Very large center hole filled with cream cheese. Toppings on one side at an uneven density, no salt crystals or salt flavor. A soft bagel with very delicate crackling. Without the salt, the end result comes off boring.  
3.25/5  
  
Cream Cheese  
Served deli case cold. A strong amount of spread, not overwhelming or messy. The flavoring goes in the direction of yogurt. While I wouldn't go as far as to call it minty, there's a freshness present that's aligned with the typical rubric for what makes a fresh cream cheese. A saltier bagel could have complimented the experience well. Instead we're left wondering what could have been.
