Previously loved the roasted veg bagel but they discontinued it. My now go to is the breakfast bun for the sweet onions, so delicious. Wish they had more vegetarian options. Lovely breakfast on the go, just make sure you have time to wait

The quality of their food has definitely changed since the past. They're following the recent trends to stay alive, of cheaper quality ingredients. Still good though
