Chubba’s Bagelry

This is a bagels /​sandwiches /​salads place that serves breakfast and lunch from 5:30am (that’s early!) to 5:00pm M-​F. They have eight different types of bagels: plain, poppy, sesame, everything, multigrain, honeywheat and cinnamon raisin and a variety of cream cheeses, including olive or seasonal pumpkin or blueberry. There are also muffins, croissants, pastries, and breakfast sandwiches. For lunch you can get wraps, sandwiches, or salads.
I work close by and the office orders lunch from here just about every week. I usually bring my own lunch but today my boss treated so I ordered the chicken cutlet salad with low fat Italian (don’t judge. this is not what I would typically order but I had a very carb-​tastic breakfast, namely a bacon egg and cheese on a jalapeño bagel from Goldberg’s Bagels in West Hartford, for breakfast this morning). The salad was superb. For the price (five and change) it was a big salad with extremely fresh vegetables: romaine, thin slices of tomato, thin slices of red onion, thin slices of cucumber, shaved carrots, and black olives. The chicken cutlet was lightly breaded and was delicious. I expected to be disappointed by the dressing, assuming it would be bottled dressed (i.e., not housemade), and perhaps it was bottled, I am not sure, but I was not disappointed at all. It was very good and did not taste low fat. I could eat this every week.
Other menu offerings sound equally tasty. Pepper Turkey with Swiss Cheese, Spinach, Bacon, Tomato, and Cranberry mayo. Oh my word! Chicken Salad with Spinach, Bacon, Tomato and Honey Mustard. I want. Actually, the latter is my boss’s favorite. I may never bring my own lunch ever again. I have been missing out!
