Bagel Café — Restaurant in Camden

We had breakfast there with our family. There were six of us.

Two of us had coffee which we mixed 1/2 Dark Harbor and 1/2 French Roast which we enjoyed with some almond milk.

Our order: Grandchildren shared a Salt Bagel toasted, with Garlic Herb cream cheese

Mini Muffin,

The adults (who keep to a vegan diet) got:

Medium Iced

A "Hummus and all the Veggies" on a toasted Sesame Bagel
