Yup, still open

Transplanted New Yorker is probably referring to the 'Magnificent Muffin and Bagels' shop on Broadway, on the eastern (Davis Square) side of Teele Square (where Teele Square is defined as the intersection of Broadway and Holland). I believe it's next to, or a few doors down from, the Fleet ATM. Across the street from Tip Top Thai/Amelia's Kitchen/etc. And to address what plumtreeblossom said above, I think they make them in-house.

so is this within walking distance of the davis square T stop? i live on orchard street and just recently moved here, so these squares are confusing. i think i am confusing teele square with ball square (isn't ball square where soundbites is?)

To get to Teele you walk up Holland from Davis. That's the easiest way, anyway. And the Magnificent Muffin's bagels *are* pretty good. :)

The 2 subsidary squares of note by Davis are Teele and Powderhouse. To get to Teele, head out Holland St for about 1/2 mile. Teele is the corner of Holland and Broadway. You can also take the 87 or 88 bus.
(To get to Powderhouse, head out college for about 1/2 mile to the traffic circle with Broadway and a number of smaller streets. A number of buses also run this way.)

Ball square is down (southward on) broadway from Powderhouse.

I live in Teele and am also a bagel snob (though not of the New York/New Jersey variety - I'm just Jewish), and I found their bagels less than magnificent. They were too doughy, just like round bread, not properly boiled. I've had the same "where are the decent bagels" problem; usually I make do with Bruegger's in Porter, which is surprisingly good for a chain (assuming you avoid the square "bagels").

Want to start a bagel deli in Davis? ;)
