Breakfast is my favorite meal to eat out, actually, and Martha and Mary's does an amazing, consistent job! Their staff is so friendly and the owners are gracious and great to work with! We do a lot of our catering through them at our school and our staff can't rave about them enough! So happy to have them in our community!

Bubb's Deli happens to be on par with some Michelin star restaurants. Their bacon, egg, and cheese bagel can compete with anything the iron chefs could ever deliver!

I don't know if it's fair to consider them because they only do brunch on the weekends, but a nod should definitely be given to The Grille at Harryman House. They're one of the only fine dining establishments in Reisterstown, and the culinary expertise that they lend to their breakfast items is refreshing in comparison to a lot of places around town.

Also it really seems like a bunch of these posts and votes are by fake people... I feel like someone that feels the need to cheat in a pole like this must be pretty insecure about their awful bagels and poor service.

Kevin,
I have a bit of a problem with your accusation. I am a part of the family of Bubb's Deli. I don't mind if you don't like our service or bagels (which come from New York, btw) but I have been busting my hump to get people to vote for us. Every person that comes in, I have told them to vote as well as through our social media outlets. So I apologize if we are winning and you are not a fan of us, but I do invite you to come back in and try our food. It's the best, just like the poll says.

Martha and Mary's!!! They have that great hometown feel. The food is ready in a timely manner and I'm out the door! They are a welcome addition to the neighborhood. I'm slowly going to the poor house, but we get pizza, old bay wings, funnel cake fries, brownies, quesadillas, salad and their Big Breakfast with french toast from there at least once a week :)

Lenny's :) and even though the food is great my favorite part is the friendly staff that have been there for years! I have been going to Lenny's since I was a little girl and many of the same cooks and staff are still there today! It's nice to go to a delicious local place that really makes you feel home :)

It's pretty amazing that Martha & Mary's was down by more than 100 a half hour ago when I looked at the poll. Looks like someone kept refreshing and voting...i think that's crap... Bubb's had a HUGE lead and I don't think that is fair at all!! I voted for Bubb's and believe they should win.

I was in for Breakfast all week at MM's. They only shared the link for voting today.
I bet all their breakfast go-ers were voting this morning. Go MM's.

There were 100 people in for breakfast in the past 45 minutes? I don't think so.

Martha and Mary's asked their guests this morning to vote for them. A little late to the game, but certainly not unfair. They took a lesson from Bubbs in using social media, as the results show, it really does work! I hope everyone can appreciate how nice it is to have 2 great choices for breakfast right here on Main Street Reisterstown! Congrats to Bubbs AND Martha and Mary's!

Wait, what? I see nothing on their facebook page asking for votes. It seems shady. I don't beleive for a second that they served 150+ people this morning. I have enjoyed many a meal at M&Ms, so I take nothing away from them. I just think that someone messed with this poll IN THE LAST 45 MINUTES!!!

I don't mind calling out people when they're up to no good. I call it like I see it. It got so shady in here around 8:30 that I had to remove my spectacles made for blocking UVA and UVB rays. I enjoy Bubb's and am a Reisterstown resident and believe in fair games.

So am I supposed to believe that Ja Rule was in reisterstown and ate at Bubb's deli and them went online to spread the word? Did he eat with dave drinkwater and Sally sandwich? Its a shame that any company would feel compelled to ruin an innocent survey like this. Gives a great sense of community. Bravo to all who participated in turning this into a farce.
