    Best bagels in Ashland, MA with nice assortment of types (savory and sweet); also offered variety of plain and flavored cream cheese; bagel sandwiches; baked goods; coffee; other beverages. Indoor seating available but no table service. If you arrive a bit after opening (6am) the bagels are just out of the oven and so good with a cup of their French roast coffee.

    This is a hard review for me to write as I’ve been coming to this place for over 20 years. Over those 20 years, the ownership and priorities have shifted. I also live out of state now, so when I come home, I notice changes more abruptly as I don’t slowly get used to things changing, if that makes sense.

    Look, if your options are a supermarket or Dunkin Donuts bagel, these are miles better. However, by east coast bagel standards, they’ve gotten worse.

    I’ll use the bialy as a case study. Bialys are supposed to be thin but puffy treats with caramelized onions, garlic, and poppy seeds. And they used to be from here! But now they are so big and puffy, they feel like unboiled bagel dough. And on top of that (no pun intended), they have clearly dried granulated onion/garlic mixed with poppy seeds. Gone is the beautiful caramelized mixture. And the bialy is as thick as a bagel. Did the person who re-designed these lose sight of what made a bialy a bialy? Just try to run a cafe instead with carbs? Super sad.

    Not sure what else to say besides I hope this place keeps an eye to being a bright spot in the area as opposed to a race to the bottom of commodification of breakfast and cost. I know it’s hard these days with inflation, but people can get puffy carbs across the street at Shaw’s, or honey dew, or Dunkin. Why should they come here instead? Think about it, owners, and don’t forget.
