Best bagels in JC has me dumbfounded.

I will take a dozen don't skimp on the seasame please!

Park Tavern

Third! I was very happy with them.

hudson hound during weekend afternoons or weeknights. They also have wifi.

Dame’s on Jersey Ave has the best coffee.

I get that there are better out there… but I’m super happy with the Wonder Bagels on Bergen Ave.

Best coffee is Cafe Esme near Hamilton Park. I moved out of the area down to DC a few months ago, and I miss Esme every day. Nothing down here compares.

No that's a cloud kitchen I think

Best coffee in my opinion is Rabble and Lion.

The term for this is ‘virtual kitchen’ where an existing restaurant has multiple virtual concepts online. Unfortunately tons of restaurants do this

Yea. My former coworkers used to collect menus from places they ordered/picked up. You could browse the stack for that chunk of midtown. At one point someone noticed several had the same address. Searching on Yelp showed it was just aliases for the same place… and same deal: all crappy reviews.

Once their reputation is blown they just start a new one. They keep the existing name to not loose existing customers. Cost is basically a print order for some menus to throw in bags and a Google voice number.

Maybe this is OCD, but if I order from some place new, I put it in Google maps and see what comes up. Is it a real place?

It's 400 Newark St, not Ave, so I think it's Hoboken

Can I mention that I make my own bagels and have 2 Nespresso machines?

But yeah, sorry, if I want shop bagels I get them in Hoboken.

According to this sub there are no good bagels in JC

Paradise Deli, the bodega on Newark off Coles, has 3 or 4 listings in Grub Hub - one for sandwiches, one saying the specialize in Philly Cheesesteaks, etc. Funny thing is, if you’ve ever seen the place it’s not somewhere you’d ever order food from, all their GH reviews are awful (spoiled food, terrible product, etc.) and yet they push their food really hard - (misspelled) menus items plastered all over the storefront, pushing different “specials” every day, etc. It all seems so bad that they can’t be making any money from it and yet they persist.

I second this! It’s delicious.

Do you have a link? I googled but didn’t find anything and am looking for a good Nashville hot chicken place.

Ugh a Trader Joe’s

Oof!

No, but he could. I had that removed from another roof, but that roofer's work leaked basically immediately!

Yes use Imperial as they are in business to do business.

The scum at Capitol will make you sign a contract with a binding arbitration clause that keeps them out of court if any issues arise and you're forced to use their arbitrator i.e. they are scumbags.

A lot of restaurants operate as ghost kitchens for other brands as a way of supplementing income.
