Wayne’s Bagels

This morning I ordered a plain toasted buttered bagel — seemed like a safe bet. I was surprised at how quickly she toasted it, but when she handed it to me it was warm, so I went with it. It was not toasted, just warmed. It was terrible, not a good texture — doughy and unpleasant. I have had better bagels from a store package. I took a few bites and then tossed it — yuck.

Hungry late Superbowl Sunday and at the Calgary Farmers’ Market. What to eat?
With so many good choices, I decided to give Wayne’s Bagels a try.
The lady was friendly for sure. She even free samples!
After 5 minutes of pondering, I chose the Tuna Melt on an onion bagel (you choose your own bagel such as plain, onion, blueberry, cranberry, etc.). It comes with tuna salad and melted cheddar cheese. Simply put, simply delicious!
I want to try the blueberry bagel next but they do not have strawberry cream cheese (they do have Winnipeg cream cheese though).
Would love to see more beverage choices and more options for cream cheese.
Next trip, it is the Egg Mac Bagel. See attached photo of the menu; prices may vary.

I stumbled into lunch wondering what to eat. Rather than nosing around through each vendor and peeking my nose in their food, I decided to ask the first person I see what they’re eating and if they recommended it. I ran into a lovely table of ladies giggling through the bevy of food they have before them.
«Ladies, what do you got there for lunch? Anything you can recommend to me?»
…so you can see where this is going. One of the places they pointed out was Wayne’s bagels. When I came here I met two more lovely ladies who were very chippy and were all about bagels. They recommended I try the LOX which was smoked salmon, capers, and cream cheese. They served it over a bed of chips and my meal came to under 8 bucks, which is a rarity for farmers market lunch item these days.
