Spread Bagelry

This is a really neat bagel shop! The atmosphere is relaxing, love the plant decor and was surprised to see them cooking the bagels in a wood fired oven. They had a large variety of bagels and the everything bagels are absolutely covered in flavor, you can get them in wheat as well as regular. They had some flavored spreads. I was there to grab a quick bagel and coffee but would like to visit again to check out their other options.

Bagels are good. Definitely the best in the KOP area. A little less salty than the NY Bagel but a little more dense + chewy with a bit of a crunch. Stays true to the 'Montreal Style' Bagel.

The reason I did not give this location a 4-Star rating is simply due to the operations of this location. We ordered (4) bagels and instead of the cashier ringing us up + also grabbing our undressed bagels, she handed off our order to another employee. We waited 15 minutes for what could have been just handed to us in the matter of seconds. Comes to find out our order was lost and we would have waited a ton more time had we not stood up + mentioned something.

Management definitely needs to take a closer look at trimming the fat here. There were about 8-10 employees working at once, all whom looked frazzled - except for the team working the flat top + team mate boiling the bagels. The cashier should definitely take responsibility of orders that require no work BEFORE passing off the work to someone else.

I would probably return, but only if I placed an order in advance. I don't think I could handle this type of frustration again that early in the morning + especially before I have had something to eat.

Tried Spread Bagelry a few times at different locations. The bagles are fine but not authentic. I'm frankly tired of businesses selling bread rolls that are NOT bagles but they call them such.

A properly made bagle has a crispy crust and a soft dense chewy interior. Spreads bagles never achieve these textures Iike so many others that fail this test.

Today I ordered a sausage, egg and cheese on a Toasted poppy bagle. The sandwich and ingredients were fine. I also had a hot Dirty Chai Latte which was yummy.

As a transplanted NY’er, I was excited and skeptical about a bagel shop opening in Town Center. Was walking my dog and decided to see if I can pop in. They were dog-friendly, which I wish other businesses in Town Center would be.

Staff was great. They greeted me as I walked in, they were engaged and friendly. Didn’t have to wait long for my coffee or food. Staff was 5 stars!

Got a SEC on a toasted everything and it held up pretty good. I’m looking forward to trying this place again.

Today was their soft open and it was good to see 15-20 people in the store. Upon walking in, the atmosphere is very sophisticated. Bagel display is very clean and easy to read. I'm a big bagel fan and Spread makes very delicious bagels. They cook them in a live wood fire oven that gives them a unique taste. I had The Cure on an everything bagel and it was packed with flavor. Highly recommend and wish the store much success going forward.
