Very pleased with this new bagel shop in the highlands! Great selections of bagels, spreads, sandwiches, and pastries. The staff was friendly and the space was very open, sunny, and cheerful with places to sit. I got an egg everything bagel with cream cheese and a French toast bagel and it was delish. Ill be back :) I have one suggestion, maybe to add some fresh squeezed orange juice to the menu 😊
