"Valley Bagel Deli isn’t a bad spot, but it’s tricky to find using GPS apps like Waze or Google Maps. They guide you to the front of a small plaza, where the deli isn’t visible. I almost left before my curiosity pushed me to check the back of the plaza, where I finally discovered this small gem. I grabbed some hiking fuel—a bacon, egg, and cheese on a delicious bagel—early in the morning, and it was great that they open at 8 a.m. The wait wasn’t too long since there was only one person ahead of me, but as more customers arrived, waiting times increased significantly, and I could see how some might get frustrated. During my visit, there were at most 5-6 customers, with some waiting far longer just to order. However, since this is the only place open so early, they seem to get away with the slow service. There’s no indoor seating, so it’s really a grab-and-go kind of spot."
