Bethesda Bagels

Wow, what a bagel. Had the smoked salmon and creme cheese and it was phenomenal. They messed up my order though so im knocking off a star.

Always a great bagel and sandwich. Beloved by locals, and open very early. If you need a breakfast sandwich on the move in Dupont, or driving along Connecticut before dawn, look no further

It's hard to screw up a bagel and cream cheese, but Bethesda does it better than most in terms of taste and variety of menu options. 3 stars because their "iced coffee" machine is pretty lame and service has been marginal in my experience, perhaps because they're so often decently busy. A good spot but not what it could be, given how good their food is.
