Cute little shop and will def be back to try some more.Pastrami VERY yummy!Bagels were good (but small) and cream cheese tasty. Perhaps just not my style of bagel.Nova Scotia very flavorful and sliced SUPER thin!

Visited in person around 9am about a week ago and ordered one plain bagel and it was hard as a rock.However the pastrami looked amazing so will give it another go soon just in case it was a fluke (since the other reviews seem great so far).

If you looking for something fresh, you should come to this shop. They’ve many things yum. I love everything bagel with smoked salmon and scallion cream cheeses.

Scallion cream cheese, tomato, and onion on a sesame cost $4.50 which is cheaper than a lot of other places in the area. Bagels are on the smaller side but I didn’t mind. Perfect amount of cream cheese on it. I liked it and am glad to have another shop near me.I didn’t eat the smoked fish bagels but four of my friends got bagels with fish and they were absolutely raving about it. I even noticed when slicing it how delicious and fresh it looked!Service was slower on a Sunday around noon as to be expected for a new business. I liked the old school number system to keep things organized. The people making the bagels were very sweet and made the best of having a ton of people in the store. Tip them a few bucks when you come at peak time, they work hard!

We have yet to try the babka, but the bagels, coffee & pastries were all top notch. Reasonably priced, as well. Looking forward to trying more of the many items offered here

Their babka is fantastic!! Super chocolaty and moist. Don't let the fact that it's a bagel place fool you. They also have a great selection of cookies, baked goods, and premium preserves - the tuna belly is yummm.

Went today (Jan 27), seems like it just opened. Had an onion bagel with scallion cream cheese and Scottish salmon. $16 and change. Best bagel I’ve had in the neighbourhood. Will be back.

Really nice staff, insane selection and tasty bagel with cream cheese. Can’t wait to try everything on the menu! (They’re open as of Jan 27 even though it says temporarily closed currently)

Just finished my Nova Scotia sandwich on rye and it was a smooth perfection! Salmon is tender and flavorful, the bread was the softest and their house-made horseradish cream cheese added a zesty twist. Salmon roe turned out to be equally high-quality (take it from a Russian). Excited to try their pastrami, babka and other sweet goods!

Can’t wait to visit this new local bagel and smoked fish shop! Here are some photos of the menu I snuck before it being open.
