Cons:

• "Not enough chives or garlic! Basically tasted like plain cream cheese."
• "I don’t think the chive and garlic cc stood out a lot."
• "The vegan 'schnitzel' was or tasted like a breaded piece of cheap celeriac, with a lonely piece of lettuce and seemed really empty."
• "Awful bagel. Ordered vegan cheddar and tomato bagel and it came out completely untoasted, no butter, literally just two slices of cheese and a tomato."

Service and Staff

Pros:

• "Was served by the staff member Francesco C and as per his advised toasted seeded option was the best and not to mention amazing customer service too!"
• "Though busy, the queue went down quickly and the lady serving me was friendly and already put my student discount on before I asked!"
• "Surprisingly great coffee despite its a bagel shop, bagels also amazing especially the sesame toasted salmon and cream cheese. Staff really friendly."
• "Wanted a quick bite so my husband and I popped in here and grabbed a bagel. Was really quick and tasty! Kenicha who took our order was really lovely and helpful as well."

Cons:

• "Very sad experience overall. Entered this shop around 6pm with the joy of beautiful interiors and I ordered a plain bagel with some chicken filling to try for the first time. However I was very disappointed by two workers on the shifts."
• "I must have visited B Bagel in an alternate universe because I don’t get the positive reviews. Very average toasted but cold bagels, wasn’t given side salad as advertised on the menu. Tea was undrinkable."
• "Stood waiting to be served, when the girl behind the counter finished who she was dealing she just completely ignored me and walked away so I just walked out."
• "Food tasted good. Shame the customer service was so poor. It's like the staff didn't want to be there, and that I was ruining their day by trying to order food and coffee."

Price and Value

Pros:

• "The classic salmon & cream cheese, and pastrami & pickles bagels were reasonably priced and very tasty."
• "Part of a small chain of bagel joints serving all the classic styles of bagels with different fillings. Portion sizes are big with bagels filled to the brim and prices are affordable, ranging from £4-7."
• "Excellent fast food bagel restaurant. It may seem pricey but the filling is sumptuous."
• "Bagels are delicious and reasonably priced as well."

Cons:

• "Overpriced, under seasoned and overcooked."
• "The toilets in this place is very filthy! Bagels were delicious but three bagels cost £40! Really disappointed with hygiene!"
• "Really good bagel, but overpriced. Charge extra if you’re sitting in rather than doing takeaway."
• "I bought onion bagels in bulk but they were rock hard after two days. I don’t see the point in buying them in bulk if you need to eat them all in one day so they’re still fresh."
