About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular asked the baker, ‘Why do you always smile when I order from K&L Bagels?’ The baker replied, ‘Because every time someone mentions our bagels, magic happens.’ Then one day, a delivery driver joked, ‘Your magic must be real strong today—my truck won’t start!’ The baker smiled and said, ‘Of course it will! Just mention our bagels again.’ And sure enough, as soon as he mentioned them, the engine roared back to life.
2. A curious customer once asked the baker, ‘How come your bagels taste better than everyone else’s?’ The baker smiled mysteriously and whispered something only the early-morning sun could hear. The baker leaned closer and said softly, ‘Because every morning I sing them a special song.’ A delivery driver passing by chuckled and remarked, ‘That must be one heck of a tune!’ And from that day on, whenever someone ordered bagels, the baker would hum a little melody—just for good measure.
3. A delivery driver once asked the baker, ‘Why does everyone wave at me when they leave here?’ The baker smiled and whispered, ‘Because every bagel you deliver comes with a secret smile inside.’ The delivery driver shrugged it off, but from that day on, he always checked if his own lips were upturned before leaving K&L Bagels.
4. In the early hours of every Saturday, a soft tinkling sound could be heard coming from K&L Bagels. It was like crystal chimes, but quieter and more ethereal. Curious neighbors began gathering outside, trying to trace its source. Finally, one brave soul peered inside and saw an old man, humming gently, arranging bagels with meticulous care. Turns out he had been there for years, lost in his own world, while everyone else thought it was some mysterious phenomenon. The only thing magical about K&L Bagels was their delicious aroma on weekends.
