Sean S, first to review Books and Bagels over a year ago, mentioned that the food looks really fresh.
That might have held true over a year ago… Books and Bagels aged like a chain-smoking, sunbathing, over-eating prostitute.
I stopped by Books and Bagels today because I was early for a meeting. I just wanted to get some coffee or maybe even a bagel. Boy did that bagel seem like such a good idea before I walked in!
And then I walked in.
There are flies. House flies. Fruit flies. Gnats, Everywhere. In the cream cheese display, on the cutting board and counter, in the cookie tray (trapped within the glass lid!!!!! WHAT THE HELL!!!) and finally, ALL OVER the bread and bagel baskets. Even all over the books on the bookshelf across from the food. Buzzing. Feasting. Flittering. Their filthy little skinny hairy legs. All. Over. Your. Food. And books too.
I was afraid there'd be a fly in my coffee. I didn't stick around long enough to find out.
Don't eat here. Don't drink here. Don't order out from here.
Brace for the health inspection, Books and Bagels. What I saw today was NOT kosher.
Was walking by this place today and stopped in. The food looks really fresh. It's a kosher cafe, with lots of sandwiches and wraps. I actually didn't order anything because I was coming back from Cafe Grumpy and already had a snack, but will definitely next time I'm through.
Note to the veggies out there, kosher places are great for us, because you'll always know what you're getting.
