Reply to comment by HurricaneCarti in Where can I get a good bagel sandwich in this town? by u-turnsonthehighway

Can someone please explain the refusal to toast the bagel? Not trying to start anything but that was the weirdest thing to me. Like yes it’s fresh but bagels are better with a slight crunch?

If you've ever been to bodos on the weekend you'd understand. Literally was out there today, line was out the door and past the end of the building into the bushes, yet I was in and out in 20 minutes flat. The bagels are so fresh that they're warm without toasting, and adding a toasting station would destroy the methodology of the business.

Bodos is a lot like chickfila, the food is better than average but what makes it elite is the speed and the service.

I’ve never been to Bodo’s and I’m not a local, but I never toast bagels. A fresh bagel has the perfect texture already if it’s made properly

I agree. I like the bagel fresh, warmed, but not toasted.
