Bagel Bin & Deli II

The most apathetic and rudest employees in Ballantyne. Everyone here is having an awful time.

Upon the glowing recommendations of many, I ventured into Bagel Bin II, my heart set on a New York-style bagel experience. Spoiler alert: my taste buds were left in a state of mild bewilderment. Firstly, the bagel. Envision a bagel that’s been daydreaming of being a crouton. That level of dryness. Yet, there’s a plot twist! One side of this enigmatic bagel was generously slathered with cream cheese - a lopsided surprise that brought a semblance of moisture to the otherwise arid terrain. Now, let’s talk about the lox. It was, indeed, present. A respectable amount, not too shabby. The lox was the silent hero of this culinary adventure, trying its best to uplift the spirits of its dry counterpart. The price tag? $11. Not a bank breaker, but for a bagel that’s having an identity crisis, one might pause. It’s the kind of price where you go, “Eh, I’ve paid more for worse.” In conclusion, Bagel Bin II’s bagel and lox is like getting a “C” in a class you thought you’d ace - acceptable, but you can’t help but feel a tad let down. Will I return? Maybe. Will I lower my expectations? Absolutely.

I keep going back for the Cab. I can't resist it every time I'm in town. Very nice people and great food. First time to this place and it was great! I had The Cab on an egg everything bagel. Just a quick follow up, add breakfast and lunch here again and they are still crushing it.

Went in on Thursday morning around 9am, not too busy y. This place is a hidden gem in Ballantyne that should be talked about. Bagels were fresh, toasted perfectly & not too expensive. They have a large menu so you can do breakfast or lunch. Will definitely be back to support this local business.

Good fresh . Forget the chains. Go here.

Long line, Longer walt. No prices at all on the wall, no menus to look at while waiting. When you ask questions, they act exasperated. They have a laminated list of their food items on the wall but no prices. All they need is a dry erase marker to change the prices. She said, We don't have that system. Last, I checked a whole pack of dry erase markers is $9. I offered to buy them for them... I really did. They are all tripping each other and everyone here acts like it's their first day. I drove here to support a local business. I normally go to einstein or brueggers for convenience. I'll go to Manhattan bagels next time in Arboretum So sad because this could be a jewel.

Had the Egg Everything bagel with chipotle chicken and jalapeño cream cheese and it was pure bliss with every bite. Me and my coworker come up here a minimum of 3 days a week and it never gets old. This place is consistently good and the staff are awesome.
