So somewhere in the center of the corporate bagel universe the baker demigods got together and decided that some bagel chains would be better priced for bagels with just a basic spread- like cream cheese or peanut butter, while others would get the price break for bagels with, aka the breakfast sandwich.  Why else would a some bagel shops charge $1.50 for the bagel with spread, while the others go for $2.00 plus?  And still others charge $4.00 for a bagel with egg and cheese, while other do it for $2.00?\n\nBrueggers, as a chain, was blessed with the breakfast sandwich advantage, and they do it well.  Not only can you get an egg o'bagel for under $3.00, but you can also add spinach, mushrooms, and other fresh veggies to it for just a few shekels more.  This is not possible at your other corporate bagel stops.  If a bagel with a spread won't do, Bruegger's is a better bet.  \n\nAdd to that the fact that this store is just a doorway away from a Carribou's Coffee and this is breakfast made in heaven.  Sadly, though, I am not alone in this assessment as both sides can be quite full on weekend mornings.  This even holds true for the outside patio tables during warmer weather, where people watching is at a premium.  Sadly this can making parking a challenge too, though CMC's lot next door has helped out.\n\nThe other challenge is, as mentioned by others, cleanliness of the place.  Staff are apparently too busy serving new customers and ringing them up, as late mornings look something like a post-locust plague landscape in terms of trash and spills left along table tops.  A little gross, but easy to fix.\n\nWeekday mornings can be just as tricky with parking, but folks are so much sitting around and drinking in the morning.  Great deal on a baker's dozen bagels on Wednesdays, which always makes you popular back in the office.
