Bagels/food are the best around !!! However very disappointed in the flow of the Agawam store. Too tight in the area of the ordering window and unless you're standing/facing in front of that window, you can't see the wall menu, it should be visible for those lined up on the "red carpet" waiting . Southwick setup much nicer in general. Biggest flaw for me as a heavy person: Booths are WAY too tight, 2 big people can't fit comfortably. No its not your fault I'm fat, but Americans are Big these days, and the booths are simply too close together. I understand you have limited space, but I'd rethink the setup in there. Just feedback, its not a catastrophe, but the place just did not have a good comfortable intuitive flow, tight bottleneck near order window, and both experiences so far were at very slow time of day, I can't imagine how it is when its busy. I'd turn the order window around facing the front windows/door people walk in straight, wait in line, place order ahead of them, then move right to fix their coffee/wait for orders etc, ....and loosen up those booths!!

When we finally finished eating and I went to ask for a refund, suddenly the frozen coffee was “ready.” The entire visit felt disorganized. Pickup orders were piling up with no one helping customers. When an employee finally came over, he didn’t even ask who was waiting or check names — people ended up sorting through the bags themselves.
Overall, the place was chaotic and uncoordinated. It’s disappointing because the food could have been decent if the experience wasn’t so...
Read moreIt’s so nice to have a new place to stop for coffee and a bagel or sandwich with friends. The atmosphere, food quality and service was great. The bagels are generously sized and delicious and there were several coffee varieties to choose from - everything is reasonably priced! I loved that there were plenty of booths for larger groups of 4-6 and comfy sofas as well. The place is very clean and new. Highly...
