My first visit to LuLus was not a great experience. They had almost no bagels or pastries or bread and there was only 1 worker in the place. In LuLu's defense, it WAS 3pm. But I was still sorely disappointed at the utter lack of baked goods a Bakery had to offer.
So I decided to give it another shot at redemption and decided to go for a morning visit. I was pleasantly surprised to find they had ay least 25 bagels in every type and flavor and there were tons a pastries and loaves of bread.

All the other employees were extremely kind.
Hopefully the other employees can provide her the...
Read moreGreat bagel place!!! I knew it was a popular and delicious place when the line was almost out the door 10min after the shop opened. My group each had a bagel sandwich, which was made fresh and was piping hot when we got it. One of my group members orders was incorrect and when he notified staff, they rushed the correct order at no charge. The wait was a little on the long side as they only had one person making the food, one cashiering and one as a barista. I am assuming they were short staffed like every other restaurant so this really should be a 4.5 stars cause they can't help the staffing. Lulu's is a fun little place in Fairbanks with great bagels and other baked breakfast pastries (chocolate cranberry...
