I’ve been holding off going to this place for a while since I used to live farther away, but now I can walk by to visit! When i first saw it opened a while back, i didn’t really get the theme, (there were like… bored ape artworks on the wall. NFT bagel place? Huh? Not my kind of scene…) but now I THINK I get the idea. Its supposed to be like a wall street, stock market theme. Which is kinda… cool? Its original, thats for sure. Today i really felt like trying something new, so i visited. First impression, the staff was very inviting and recognized I was a new customer. He didn’t rush me and let me take my time to decide. The bagels were pretty sparce by 10:30, but I ordered an everything bagel with cream cheese.
I sat around waiting for an order. There’s tons of board games to play, wifi, a printer… seems like it’d double as a great internet cafe. The other girls here were having a great time playing games.
I did notice that it looked like some online orders came in and the staff had trouble helping new customers ordering while trying to complete that AND my order. Felt a little long, but maybe it was just too busy.
I was called up and got my food. It was super tasty!! I’m not sure if the bagel was actually fresh… but it was good, and good for the price.
My notes to the owner: I don’t really like the interior design. I like the original idea, but its too grey, black, drab… the games, theme, staff, and printer is all awesome, but the color scheme, design, and furniture doesn’t feel great. Especially if you want to have people stay around, use wifi, and play games. I’d invest in some cushions at the least, maybe a fun print on the wall… the tv’s on the wall were more distracting than fun. I think there’s a better way to use the theme in a more interesting and inviting way.
I’ll definitely be coming back, and invite others to try! I hope the space becomes more comfortable and cuter/cooler.
