Blue Moon Bagel Cafe

Coffee and sandwich were both great! Fast, friendly service! Nice, large indoor seating area.

I grew up in the area and have lived abroad—mostly in Europe—for the past 15 years. Over that time, I’ve become very aware of the differences in ingredients and food quality between Europe and the U.S. When I come back each year to visit family, I often find that a lot of American food leaves me feeling bloated and uncomfortable, likely due to additives, dyes, and lower-quality ingredients that I’m no longer used to. Blue Moon Bagel Cafe is the one wonderful exception. I’ve been coming here since high school, and it’s the place I genuinely look forward to eating when I’m back in town. I truly trust their ingredients: the food tastes fresh, clean, and well made, and it doesn’t leave me with that heavy, uncomfortable feeling I get elsewhere. The sandwiches are delicious, everything feels t

This is the second time I’ve been here. The first time was with my mother and the coffee we ordered was delicious; we couldn’t stop talking about it. This time I ordered a sandwich on a croissant and some tea. The coissant was delicious, flavorful, and flakey. I’m a pickle person so I was very happy to see two pickle slices with my sandwich.

Busy, forgot my order, then acted annoyed when I asked for my money back. I would say this was ok...people make mistakes, but both times I went this happened. I did successfully manage to get an overpriced tub of chicken salad that had so much tarragon it was inedible (the bagel sandwich I ordered apparently disappeared along with the boy who took my order, but after trying the chicken, I think I probably was better off). Frankly, they aren't doing anything special, other than the atrocious chicken salad, people have told me the food is ok, but I can't go back to a place where I am apparently invisible except when handing them money. 😘

Great place to eat. I went with my family and we were served by Ana Paola, who was very kind and had a gentle smile. She helped us with our orders and took great care of us. We ordered some sandwiches; the chicken pesto is my favorite. Thank you Blue Moon, thank you Ana Paola.
