On of my favorite things about this place is the service, the ladies and the owner always take care of me and make conversation. It’s nice to know when you walk through the door you’re taken care of! I also love their sandwich’s - I get bacon and cheese on a croissant!

Happy to stop in yesterday and grab a steak and egg burrito for breakfast and an egg salad for lunch later. Got to run into Tom and enjoy a conversation over a latte and it all made my day. Stop in and enjoy. It’s really a great burrito!

My husband, friend and I each ordered a different sandwich. We thought the food to taste fresh and the fillings were generous. With food prices going up and up, we felt our sandwiches were fairly priced with a generous portion. Nicely decorated, clean, soft background music, and friendly service. Definitely recommend.

Good coffee and sandwiches. At first I was shocked that the bagel place had changed into this, however, no offense but some of their sandwiches actually taste better on bread now than bagels...

Very sad, Greatest Anerican Bagels, are far n few between. So I drive a good distance there for a treat. They no longer carry them, Google says yes. It's fine not carry of course. But not for me to be told by Google yes as usual and go out of my way for none. Hard for employees for people who don't take it humanly, not a lot of humans left!

Today was the last business day for this location as great American bagel. Visit January 2 for an all new name, menu and experience. I had the opportunity to try the Beef bacon & bourbon panini today and will say it is a masterpiece of a sandwich. Roast beef, bacon, onion, pepper rings with smoked gouda and bourbon sauce served on a pressed baguette. Mmmmm! Let them know Brad Spitt recommended it.

The bagels were awesome, very fresh and moist. Great variety too. Just be prepared to pay. Our three bagels were over $13.00. We did not get cream cheese because a small container was over $5.00.
