    I can't believe I reviewed Kiwi Frozen Yogurt before I reviewed Brueggers. They're in the same strip of stores but I've been going to Bruegger's regularly now for a few months.

    They make a decent bagel, in some unique flavors that I've never seen anywhere else. I'm partial to the rosemary olive oil bagels.

    They have all sorts of sandwiches, but this is basically a morning stop for me. I stick to breakfast and (iced) coffee.

    They keep the egg patty and bacon/sausage in a plastic warming tray behind the counter. You may get the perception that they've been sitting around as you watch the employee assemble the various components and heat them up, but the resulting breakfast sandwich comes out just fine. The smoked salmon sandwich is nice too.

    It's a touch on the pricey side, but look where it is. It won't make or break you though.

    They have a nice selection of beverages and shmears.

    The staff are friendly and efficient. Many a morning have gotten off to a good start for me thanks to Brueggers.

    The coffee is definitely weak but the breakfast sandwiches are pretty good.  I definitely appreciate that they use shaved deli ham rather than a single slice of a ham-like meat.  The bagels are on the small side but fresh with a nice shell and soft interior.  I was disappointed that they didn't have any asiago bagels though.

    Bagel sandwiches are really good. The coffee is just OK. The reason for 2 stars is the awful customer service, especially from an assistant manager named Katie. Just dreadful crabbiness and attitude. Hey Katie we all don't want to work in retail but try a smile now and then and pretend to like your job. I doubt we'll go back here again.

    Brueggers is a bagel joint so keep in mind that the 5 stars is not for haute cuisine ...

    But what Brueggers does it does VERY well.  Terrific bagels with the right amount of chew.  Wonderful creme cheese spreads - not weak and over-whipped like some places.  Fabulous coffee.  Nice sandwiches and salads as well.  My daughter loves their special - a french toast bagel with sausage, egg and maple cream cheese.  I've ordered their bagels for functions - they always get raves.

    They also have great marketing and always friendly staff.

    Cheap ingredients make for a greasy, underwhelming bagel sandwich.

    The staff seemed nice.  It's just your average suburban place that blends into the landscape.  But I didn't come here for the staff, or even because it was "convenient."  I came hoping to get a delicious bagel sandwich and it just kind of sucked.

    Great bagels and coffee, but they also have great sandwiches and salads.  In the Main Line it is hard to find a place that is not completely overpriced and under whelming for lunch, but this is a sure bet.  The staff works hard and makes an effort to be nice, which is always refreshing!
