Recently, Dave decided to try his hand in the nonprofit sector where he worked for Community Health Charities of Maryland.

Peruse the menu while you sip on a cup of local Rival Bros Coffee or Groothie: Get Real Get Raw, organic and local smoothie made with banana, spinach, kale, pineapple and apple. Schmear It offers a variety for both the sweet and savory palette served on South Street Philly Bagels (gluten free bagels from The Greater Knead also available).

The Dragon is very popular, made with cream cheese, jalapeños, walnuts, scallions, red peppers. The Veggie Delight is made with cream cheese, scallions, peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots (make it vegan and try it with hummus instead +$1). Egg sandwiches are elevated with signature schmears in sandwiches like The Mexican with jalapeños , tomatoes, onions, cilantro, cheddar and option to add a layer of jalapeño schmear. We also love a classic mix on a traditional egg and cheese bagel like the G.O.A.T. made with goat cheese, spinach, mushrooms, and onions.
If you like your bagel sweet there are also cream cheese schmear options and others with Nutella and peanut butter. The Stuffed French Toast becomes handheld with cream cheese, strawberries, bananas, walnuts, cinnamon, and maple syrup. We also love the Monster Miler with peanut butter, granola, and bananas its perfect after a workout. The Nutty Naner makes us nostalgic for the childhood days when we packed a lunch box. Its loaded with peanut butter, Nutella, and bananas.
