Manhattan Bagel, Chesterbrook

I stop by the bagel shop a couple times a week, before and during work, to get something to munch on. I OC in the summer quite often, so when it started getting warm I OC'ed more often.

One of the managers commented one day: "What's with the hardware?"

I explained to him it's for personal protection but that OC was legal in PA. We had a few minutes discussion about OC/CC and he was a little off on the law.

Today I caught him going into work as I was coming out and stopped him right quick. Got a pamphlet out of the car and told him I thought he'd find it interesting. He glanced at it real quick, smiled and said "OK, ok!"

Never questioned my presence in his store and never once said anything negative. I will continue my business there

I know where I'm going for breakfast on Friday.

+1 for a locally owned shop

I go there often when I am working in the area, never once had a problem. Nice guy, always friendly.

Maybe there are other reasons to not go here. Ever seen the chap around our office?

Funnily, I was searching something else and came upon this post as a link, read it, and both know the store and also the poster. Small world.
