For the longest time, my husband and I spent every Sunday morning doing the same thing- stopping off at Gloria Jeans for coffee, and then to Western Bagel for bagel sandwhiches.
This bagel place is always packed. They not only have a huge offering of various bagels, but they also make really good sandwhiches- on bagels, of course. With smoked turkey, cheese, eggs, etc. They're very inexpensive, but tasty. And they're also quite filling.
One of the cool things about this place- for parents coming in with very young kids, they will give the kids free mini bagels, for no cost.
If you're looking for a hopping bagel joint, with great prices, great selection, and good eats (and I hear their coffee is good too!), then I definately recommend Western Bagel!
