After living all this time in JC, I can't believe I didn't try Wonder Bagels til now. I've been missing out. The lines are quite long weekend mornings. I went two times around 10:30am and waited an average of 20 min, but the wait is worth it.
The bagels are very fresh and soft but still retains a crispy outer edge. You can actually see them churn out the bagels fresh in the back as fast as people are buying them. Their bagel machines look pretty awesome. They offer the following kinds of bagels: pumpernickel, oat bran, salt, cinnamon raisin, whole wheat, poppy, sesame, everything, plain, egg, sun-dried tomato, onion, and garlic.

The woman definitely made up for his rudeness or bias. I wont ever go back to them though, I got the...
Read moreThe bagels are not bad. But the service was, staff is not friendly at all, and always pretend that they haven't seen you to take your order ! When they finally decided to serve you, I ordered a NY style bagel for takeaway. I wanted it toasted (I'm pregnant, so I can't eat raw smoked salmon, that's why I needed it toasted), with a sesame bagel and a flavored spread cream cheese (scallion), which is an extra $4.55. I had none of those options !! I just wasted my money. If you order there, make sure to check that it is aligned with what you originally ordered, especially if you have allergies or are...
