He said that AAA sends notices out to the shops and whoever gets it first gets it. His boss regularly sends him out to change flats and stuff really far away. The guy was like but again I was like wtfffff bro people are the worst

The problem with this area is that each bagel store has extreme bad components and if I took the good qualities of all them, I’d have a great bagel store.

One has good ‘sandwich’ bagels and tasty eggs, but the service is painfully slow and often gets our order wrong (even if they’re not busy); another the eggs are great, but the sausages are halved links (unacceptable); a different one has crappy hard NYC style bagels, but great juices, shakes, and nice people. 🤷‍♀️

I miss Palisades Park bagels, but it’s out of the way now. I also like Lodi and Bob’s, but haven’t been often enough to really judge.

Bratek Deli in Garfield is my new favorite. Used to be an Adam’s devotee (and I still do love it), but Bratek has an incredible selection of kielbasa, baked goods (especially around Christmas), and cooked foods.

Piast is great too.
