For those who do not know me, my name is Jaeth and I am one of the owners of the Udon Thani branch of Wawee Coffee.
I'm glad that those who have tried my bagels have enjoyed them. I love eating, and I do my best to offer a tasty treat for bagel lovers out there. The bagels are not a wawee creation. They come from my own kitchen. I got tired of not being able to find decent (any) bagels here, and decided to remedy the situation. For those of us who know what bagels are, we cannot be appeased by a piece of bread with a hole in it.
For those of you who are not happy with my shop for any reason, I wish you the best. It is impossible to create a location that will appeal to everyone, but I do my best to please as many as I can. Fortunately, there are enough places in Udon Thani that we should all be able to find a place that we are happy. I hope you find such a place to call your own.
Yes, our coffee is a little more expensive than many other locations. However, those places do not focus all of their attention on quality coffee, and do not have bills associated with creating the atmosphere that we try to provide (triple air conditioners, comfortable couches, etc...). If you would like to have a bagel but think that 65 baht is too much to pay for fresh ground espresso based coffee, we do have free iced filtered water available for you to enjoy with your bagel. Another option is to contact me directly for bagels to take home with you, which will also be a little bit cheaper than buying them in the shop.
As far as toppings for my bagels go, I currently have the following varieties:
Jam: Strawberry
Butter: plain, garlic
Cream cheese: plain, garlic and green olive, jalapeno, and occasionally I have tomato pesto.
I will have new varieties of spreads in the near future, and will also have flavored bagels soon (such as onion and garlic). If anyone has special requests, feel free to let me know, and I will make an effort to accomodate.
Thanks for your time and have a wonderful day!

i congratulate you on both your endeavor and your success. i feel that my criticism of the coffee price mischaracterized my complete feelings about wawee and may have caused you to feel compelled to write what you did above. your atmosphere and environment is very pleasant and very comfortable. your staff is always smiling, competent and appreciative of tips. the climate and the furniture are a step above, and the wifi certainly makes it attractive for those who plan to get some work done. i have used your establishment often to meet friends over a cup of coffee, but because i am a 3-coffee guy in the mornings, i've had to pass on enjoying my coffee there every morning and had to look for a less expensive venue (and i do understand your overhead issue).
once again, i congratulate you on your endeavor and success, and i will be back occasionally.
