Mataix's favorite bagels are those of the whole wheat variety, but customers tend to favor the shop's plain bagels. In addition to bagels, the shop offers sandwiches, salads, chips and a variety of beverages, including Tropicana, Gatorade, Coca-Cola products, v8 Splash and Nestea.</p> <p>Bagelman is accessible from either the front entrance on Franklin Avenue or by the back entrance, conveniently connected to the free parking lot.</p>

There's one line at Cafe Express and no seating. The line, too, quickly wraps outside of the door into the hallway of…More the lobby for yogurt parfait, quick bite sandwiches and other snacks that are easy to munch and easy to carry back to medical assisting class.
