Looking for some quick food and coffee, we were fortunate enough to come across this little gem. There was a display full of bagels and then another display of other tasty looking things. Being on a trip from Brisbane, Perths severe lack of lactose free milk (not soy or almond milk but actual lactose free milk) had disappointed but these guys had it. They also had soy and almond and rice and others I don't care to remember. They made a very tasty coffee and the bagel was very well thought out and tasty.
