Cassidy's Corner Cafe has expanded all over Long Beach and Lakewood - there are now four locations in the area. Of the four locations here, this is the first one that was in the Long Beach-Lakewood area. As you can see from the reviews, it's a local's favorite.
They have bagels, bagel sandwiches, glazed donuts, and coffee. Also popular are bagel bombs, which are round bagel bites that are filled with a hefty amount of cream cheese. This is not the best for me because it's guaranteed that I'll get the white cream all over my clothes. It tends to be a messy proposition for me.
When I have their bagels with cream cheese, I don't really get as much of the characteristic chewiness that I personally look for in a boiled/baked bagel; however, I do appreciate that they bake their bagels in house daily and if you get a flavored bagel (eg: everything bagel, garlic, sesame, etc.), it's generously topped with the key ingredient(s). I find that the bagels at Cassidy are A-OK. I'll eat it without hesitation if I want a solid, filling breakfast sandwich or bagel on the go! I'm happy that they're expanding and I wish them the best. They just opened a location with drive thru on south street and woodruff!
