Lol no kidding. It?s a ****ing bagel place that serves Italian sometimes. It?s not an Italian restaurant. It may be awesome. That?s not the point.

They should just reopen the burrito joint in coconuts gas station. That place made a damn gutbuster of a burrito back in the day.

Another Broken Egg would be perfect for breakfast.

Starkville needs a Cracker Barrel (Serves down home food that the locals love), A Pappasito's or Chuy's Mexican Restaurant, and/or a Cajun/Seafood place. I will say this, the morning after an evening football game it is difficult to find breakfast in Starkville.

I don’t even understand what argument y’all are trying to make. It’s literally called City Bagel Cafe & Italian Bistro. A Bistro is a small restaurant. Are y’all saying you enjoyed average to below average Italian at Old Venice because it was a bigger place that was decorated better? The best Cuban food I’ve ever had was on the corner of Duval in Key West from a stand connected to a corner Grocery. Is that experience discounted because it wasn’t a real Cuban restaurant? Ever eaten at the original Doe’s? How about Gibbes Grocery in Learnid?

I?ll probably get laughed at, but I miss Barnhills...especially their breakfast buffet.

I'm saying I'd like a restaurant because it's what they do and it's available every time the doors are open instead of a sometimes thing. Most people don't even know City Bagel does Italian anyway. I don't see how it's so difficult to see the difference between a bagel place that does some Italian sometimes and an actual Italian restaurant...

This post is so Mississippi State message board circa 1999.
Although it could come in handy if we continue to play the Egg Bowl on Thanksgiving.**

Name me a few top restaurants in Oxford & Hattiesburg (other college towns so we?re apples to apples) and tell me what they serve. Starkville has Tyler and Veranda is that realm. They both have their own distinct niche and flavor and there is room for another.
Another Japanese and Mediterranean to Starkville.... LMAO.
I agree with this.

Hell yea. Lived directly across the street for two years and ate 5 tines my fair share of those monsters. Would get a fountain drink to wash it down.

I travel a bit and I've recently discovered Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe in B'ham and Chattanooga. It's prob been around for a while, but they have great gyros and killer Salmon. That'd go over in S'Vegas.

Every single night they are open they are an Italian Bistro, not sometimes. The name of the damn place is City Bagel Cafe & Italian Bistro. The home page of their FB literally spells it out and the menu they show is Italian. Haha I feel like I’m in the twilight zone. What else do they have to do? A Chianti fountain and throw tomatoes & buffalo mozzarella at people walking down University?

Chianti fountain and thrown buffalo mozzarella - that's Hilarious!
I'm picturing the scene from one of those dating shows where the girl from small town USA asked the guy, who's last name was something like Rockefeller/Vanderbilt, a culinary question. The girl says she LOVES Italian and The Olive Garden is her favorite. She then asks her date, who says he also likes Italian, "Have you ever eaten at The Olive Garden? Isn't it the Best Italian you've ever had?

Nothing makes southern people fight more than food. Maybe football but definitely food.

Who is going to eat at these Resturants May 15 Through September 1st and December through February 13th?

It's amazing that people would complain that the authentic Italian place in Starkville isn't Italian enough for them. It's Starkville for crying out loud - not Nashville or Atlanta or even Jackson. It's actually pretty cool that a town as small as Starkville has authentic Italian food from classically trained chefs, and the fact that it comes from a Bagel cafe gives it and the town a bit more character and charm.

This is the only reason for Starkville?s lack of growth.
Maybe Starkville?s chamber of commerce should learn from another community and start paying magazines and newspapers to start naming it a top destination and one of the pretties cities/campuses in the galaxy. It?s brainwashed a certain gullible group into believing it. So this may work on a portion of our fab base.
