"Chef Terry Koval struck bagel gold when he opened B-Side bakery and cafe next door to his Michelin-recommended Decatur restaurant the Deer and the Dove. This is where to head for Montreal-style bagels. These bagels are first boiled in molasses and then wood-fired in an oven. Expect flavors like sea salt, benne seed, everything, and brown sugar and raisin here and a variety of toppings, including roasted garlic and chive schmear, smoked white fish, hummus, pimento cheese, and pastrami." - Beth McKibben
"Fawn will offer the same vibe as the early days at B-Side, adjacent to the Deer and the Dove, when the Sycamore Street bakery-cafe opened in the evenings for wine and bar snacks." - Beth McKibben
"Koval opened the Deer and the Dove and adjacent cafe B-Side in 2019 just off of Decatur Square." - Beth McKibben
"Chef Terry Koval opened the Deer and the Dove and B-Side bakery and cafe in the old Cakes and Ale space a year later." - Beth McKibben
"The casual neighbor to the Deer and the Dove, B-Side’s wood-fired bagels are good, but for a classic breakfast sandwich don’t overlook the egg on a roll. It’s simply a fried farm egg and cheddar cheese on a kaiser roll (option to add sausage, bacon, or ham) and hits the spot just right. Call to order for pickup." - Eater Staff
