Worker Attitude
by bananabelle
Recently I have not appreciated the attitude from the workers, which is a shame because I am not sure if I will go back unless the attitude changes. By attitude I mean the workers seem to make it clear that they are entitled to being tipped. I understand tipping is important for wait staff who rely on their tips to make at least minimum wage since they only make ~2 bucks an hour. I also understand tipping at any place is proper when the service is good specifically during very busy business hours. Plus, with the economy being bad, I understand that we can all use as much as we can get. However, Star Bagel is a bagel/coffee house where workers are making at least minimum wage based on their hourly pay. Further, the past two times I have been to Star Bagel (& observed this newly developed righteous attitude from the workers) it has been practically empty. For example, the 1st time I experienced a worker's bad attitude was when I did not tip & immediately noticed a dramatic change in the worker's behavior from welcoming & friendly to indifferent and annoyed. The 2nd time (~ a week later), a different worker explicitly (& rudely) commented to me that I could just leave my change on the counter (hence as a tip) after I had dropped it & was apologizing for the mess and inconvenience. The overall attitude of the worker's that they are entitled to being tipped turns me completely off from this restaurant I have enjoyed so much in the past. Though the economy is bad, it is bad for everyone around, including the customer, who should not feel compelled to frivolously tip not so amazing service to workers already getting paid minimum wage during non busy business hours. I would have written this complaint on Star Bagel's own online web site but it turns out they do not have one. Instead, I just hope their business owner reads these reviews & inflicts a change on their worker's attitudes and service soon so that I may have confidence in going there again.
- Pros: Food is good.
- Cons: Service Workers explicitly expect tips and change their attitude if one is not given.

great morning stop
by ahennig
the bagels and cream cheese options here are amazing. they have a great selection of salads and wraps as well. i love stopping here in the morning to sit down and grab a bite to eat with a friend or a date. the service is pretty quick so it won't take a ton of time out of your morning.
- Pros: timely service, good food

My new favorite place!
by kmills554
Star Begal is definitly my new favorite place with hot and cold sandwiches served on your choice of delicious bagels or a sourdough bread much like Scholotzsky's bread you can't go wrong. They also have salads, great soups, homemade muffins and pastries. My favorite so far is their fruit tea and pizza bagel. It's in a cozy little area across from McCabe's golf course with a out door seating area. The only thing bad about the place is limited parking, but I always seem to find a place I can squeeze into.
- Pros: Menu and fruit tea.
- Cons: Parking.
