Says Josh:

Perfect location. This place will be slammed.

Adds Bobby:

Fantastic news. This building has been a condemned eyesore for my entire life, it seems like. So excited to see a great business moving in.

Notes unheckingbelievable:

Bagels were not overhyped. Everybody who works there seems to be happy. Big fan of this news.

Offers boulevard:

The black & white cookie is a revelation! Haven’t had such a tasty one since I lived in NYC!

Observes jepadgitt:

The In-N-Out Burger of bagels! Always a long line of peeps at the Tennyson location, but they have a great system for moving people on through.

Wonders Solodabz:

Why support great, locally owned restaurants when you can support a crappy, out-of-state chain?

Responds Casa Colorado:

Because the “great locally owned restaurants” are dogshit. Not a single one knows how to make an actual bagel.
