Collegetown Bagels

When we visit family in Ithaca every year we come here 3-4 times. Huge selection. Very consistent food. The coffee is enjoyable. Pastries are very good too. This location is pretty clean and somewhat efficient. The ordering system is outdated and a bit cumbersome, but the employees are quick and efficient. Here is my knock: the ventilation here is absolutely terrible, it is honestly a complete joke. At any given time you walk into this place you will be welcomed by a smoky interior. Your clothes smell like the place when you leave. Please please invest in some real ventilation it is almost unbearable.

Great place to go in the a.m for bagels and coffee. Make sure you get there early, it does get packed. The menu seems endless

Decent environment. Not crowded like the one in collegetown. Ordered one of these "CTBowls", Texicali to be exact, from east hill location. I am not sure why they thought it's a good idea to serve everything cold "fresh" from the fridge. It was pretty bland, and I felt like I was chewing grass the whole time I was eating it.

Food is very good here, but the prices have gone up over the years.

Nice cozy place with great selection of food and drink. Ordered a panini with the cayuga cocoa on a cold rainy day that made lunch so good. People watch and do some reading!
