Collegetown Bagels is a local bakery/bagel place owned by Ithaca Bakery. They have all kinds of coffee-type drinks, sandwiches, bagels, sweets, etc. Though the variety of items is huge, it bothers me that they are supposed to be a bagel place and they don't know how to make a good bagel. I think they are trying to be a NYC type place like Au Bon Pain, but they fail miserably. Bagels that are supposedly fresh are hard and stale. And good luck getting one that isn't like a hockey puck anytime after the morning. But since this is the only bagel place in town, the lines are always long and the store is always packed. Their sandwiches are OK, but somewhat expensive.
