They bake on the premises and have good bagel fillings - cream cheeses, whitefish salad, etc. A bit more expensive than David's and closed on Saturday (they're fully kosher). Until recently, the area also had Dizzy Izzy's at 14th & 2nd. I live on 15th betw. 1st & 2nd, and one block in almost any direction had a very good bagel shop.
