I have been going to the New York Bagels & Deli\r
for a few years. It is the one on the corner of Falls of Neuse and Strickland. It is in the Kroger shoppping center. When I first started going there I noticed the rude workers and horrible customer service. Everytime I went in they acted as if they did not want my service or it was a hassle because I wanted to place a simple order (bagel with cream cheese and coffee). However, I bit my tounge and put up with the bad vibe because I really liked their bagels. \r

This morning I went in there to buy a bagel. The shorter balding guy took my order. It seems that he is the only one in there that doesnt have a attitude. Very friendly guy, I wish the rest of the workers were like him. Anyway, as I was waiting on my order I witnessed some very unsanitary actions. The older lady with frizzy blondish brown hair walked right in front of me and stuck her WHOLE pointer finger in her mouth and sucked something off of it ( Like a kid would do with cake icing). She walked to the back for 2 seconds, returned to the front touching the prep table and everything else. She then rubbed her nose like she had a runny nose and started caughing in her hand. She did not ONCE wash her hands. She just continued to work like it was normal. She did not have any gloves on either. She was touching EVERYTHING with her nasty hands. \r

I put up with the horrible customer service because I really liked their food. . I will not put up with such unsanitary actions. Im thinking about calling the health dept. I will never go there again and I urge anyone that does go there to watch very carefully while they make your food.
