My wife & I love Rise. Coming here is a treat for us. If we both get bagels & coffees it’s about $20/person, so it definitely gets expensive quick, but we like it a lot.
We usually get the Artisan, which is delicious- eggs, bacon, (Gouda?) cheese, sweet mustard of some kind, and arugula. The gluten free bun was kinda mid. It was kind of dry and just broke apart. I feel like they used to have different ones or a gluten free bagel or something, but it was okay. Glad they offer a gf option.
My wife got an iced miel, which was good, but they mixed the honey in with the cold drink, which causes it to settle at the bottom like the picture shows. She was kinda bummed about that. An easy work around for that is mixing the honey with the hot espresso before putting it in the iced cup. 😊 then it’s blended much better. My hot latte with oatmilk was pretty good.
Our friend that we brought to breakfast with loved her strawberry matcha and her “classic” bagel sandwich.
Atmosphere is dope when it’s not busy- early morning or before close is usually pretty empty, but brunch and early PM can be super busy. Especially weekends.
