Starting the day off right is just around the corner with the best breakfast in town.

In our inaugural "Best of Patch" contest, 432 voters cast their ballots for the best place to get the most important meal of the day.

And the winner is: Bagel Works.

The Bel Air shop receieved 81 votes, closely followed by Double T Diner with 80 votes.

Backing up the numbers in favor of Bagel Works were positive comments from the community raving about the delicious food and reasonable prices.

The eatery serves breakfast dishes, lunch specials and bagels from 6 a.m. until 2 p.m. Monday through Friday. On weekends the restaurant is open from 7 a.m. until 2 p.m.

Terry Pezzella wrote the following in a comment:

Since I've visited Bagel Works, it's hard for any other place to measure up. The pancakes are huge and fluffy. The coffee, and even the specialty coffees are terrific, and I love the staff. It may be a little wait to get in there, but always well worth it. And may I add reasonable...

Pezzella's sentiments were echoed by a number of other commenters and clearly reflected in the votes. Be sure to click through the slide show to see more of what people had to say about this local breakfast spot.
