I want to love 158(Pickett St Cafe), I really do. Its small and funky and the outside area is great in the summer. The tall guy at the front counter is one of the friendliest restaurant people Ive come across. They serve Scratch bagels which are flawless and the menu is fresh and local. Heres my problem: Every time Ive gone, regardless of how many people are waiting it takes at least 15 minutes for my bagel sandwich. This past Saturday I went in for 2 sammies. One with sausage,egg,cheese, one- bacon, egg...I waited for 25 minutes and took them to go while holding onto a toddler whos patience had since left the building. I get home and find that theres no sausage on my $7 meal and my husbands was blah as well. They get cool points and nice points in a town that is overrun with moody-hipster servers who are too cool to care about customers. Just dont be in a hurry and hope your order is right if you want to check this place out.

This place, the hippie on an everything bagel, is just divine intervention. I have so many great memories of this place for the 5 years i lived in Maine. I wish I could go back every day. The vibe is just so cool I am very uncool, but dont feel out of place squaring up the joint. But seriously i cannot believe these bagels they make me cry when I eat them because they are so divine. It really transcends words.

Such a cool little place. Ive tried pretty much all of the bagels on the menu by now, and all are excellent. Add in the friendly staff, and the awesome back yard to sit out in and enjoy your tea/coffee and bagel.......just heaven. In fact, no - its horrible, dont come...........I want to keep it all to myself. Muahahahahaah.

Incredible! Low key vibe with the focus on serving you up something delicious and interesting. Bagels are phenomenal. Unique mix of college students, locals and people in the know from across the bridge. Outdoor seating in the summer.

A great spot to grab a coffee and breakfast. If you hit it at the wrong time parking can be tricky and the line at the counter can stretch, but dont shy away - service is quick and the bagels are great.

Very good bagels!! They also make great breakfast sandwiches!! The only downside for students at SMCC is that they dont have student discounts.

Nice people, but the service is slow. I did not care for the bagels, better options in Portland. The coffee was fair.
