Bagel Hole — Restaurant in West Windsor

If I was asked to provide a title for this review, I would call it "Skimpy and Cheap."

I grew up in New York, so I know a good bagel and, more importantly, a good bagel sandwich.

Unfortunately, you won't get a good bagel sandwich here.

I am not from this area, but I had an appointment out this way and was very hungry when I got out of the office. So, I stopped in for an egg sandwich and coffee. Big mistake.

The bagel was not bad, but the sandwich was, as I said, "skimpy." Don't take my word for it, check out my photo of an egg white, cheese and bacon sandwich (photo). Not much there, right?

I had a small coffee, too and, was told it would be 9 dollars and change, but when I went to pay, the cashier woman said "no, it would be $11 and change. I see that another reviewer also mentioned the same fast talking woman. Hmm.

When I took the sandwich and coffee to a table to eat, I found nothing --- no salt, pepper, catchup, sugar or anything else. You have return to the counter to get some of those annoying packets of condiments that the same woman carefully counts out for you.

And, then, for the final insult --- when I ask for a refill of my coffee, she says...

I live locally and go to this place every now then. The lady at the cashier counter is pretty dishonest, which is why I am leaving this 1 star review. Last three times I’ve been there she has charged me for something different from what I ordered. She’ll make small changes so you may not even notice - like charge you for scallion cream cheese when you ordered plain cream cheese. Then she pretends like she didn’t know what you ordered, gets flustered because she got caught red handed and annoyingly makes the correction. Two other times I’ve paid cash and she has given me incorrect change and then pretended to forget how much cash I gave her - including one time where she told me the wrong amount making me second guess myself. Each time she is quick to correct the mistake like she knows what she is doing all along. If she has this level of temporary amnesia maybe she shouldn’t be working the cash register. My suggestion if you go here is to calculate what you owe for your order - I know sounds ridiculous, but the cashier is busy making a buck here and there. I only go in because I like their Jalapeno bagels, but I will have...

Seriously, some of the best bagels I have ever had... Oh Emm Gee, SOOOOO good, mmmmm... The hubs and I just recently moved to the area and this place has quickly become our go-to spot on weekend mornings. They even make a mean iced coffee - and expect that how you ask for it to be made is actually how you will receive it - Dunkin Donuts can't even do that most days and their coffee is like 3x the price. The staff is super friendly and it seems like an "everybody knows your naaaaame" kinda joint, which is really cool in this day and age. Go there and get any kind of bagel (our favs are sesame and salt) with whatever spread your little heard desires (our favs are cream cheese, butter, lox spread, roast beef and American cheese...), you will...
