I came in about 2 weeks ago and got the same order I almost always get. I take a sip of my coffee and it tasted oddly sweet and a little cloudy for a black coffee (we’ll get back to that) but I let it go assuming maybe it was just brewed wrong or they gave me a different coffee by mistake. I get to work and start eating my sandwhich and I find myself chewing on the longest piece of hair possible. I know it wasn’t mine because my hair is a completely different color and length. I wrote an email to the store regarding it. About an hour passes and the ice melts in my coffee, and the condensation goes down and I finally see what I’m tasting in my coffee.. I see this white stuff floating in my coffee. A lot of it. Not bottom of the barrel coffee grounds. White fluffy stuff. I wrote a second ema

I had my mom order online today, as we usually go to drive thru, but we had four sandwiches and drive thru has a limit of three— it’s been like that for as long as I can remember(like 8-9years maybe?) and unfortunately they didn’t have my bagel flavor. They substituted for plain as it said on their website when she was ordering so it wasn’t what I hoped for, but still delicious. I decided to get a dozen bagels in the express line when I picked up my order, and was pleasantly surprised by the sign that I could also get my coffee I forgot to order. The staff was really working hard and I don’t know how they do it all!!! Tips for drive thru- Friday through Sunday three sandwiches only, including bagels with cream cheese, something about the town police making them do it(?), order online (send

I visited after reading several Reddit posts exclaiming that Bagel World offers some of the best bagels in MA. The service was quick, prices were affordable, and they offered several interesting flavors like french toast, asiago everything, and more. Overall, the bagels were solid. I’m not quite at the best bagels in MA, but definitely really good. I would definitely visit again. They also have a drive thru!

The food is amazing but the drive thru system doesn’t make sense. Why do you have two lanes when you only have one speaker? So what is the point to be in line for 10min when someone can cut you on the right because there’s a “second lane”? Now I understand why bagel world is not busy as they were.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Camille Riley · Feb 2026

Average bagel sandwiches. Ordered a poppy bagel, received bagel with no poppy seed. Drive through and pickup logistics are a nightmare. No signs telling you pickups are inside only. Two drive through lanes that converge to one. People parked cannot leave because of the two lanes blocking them in. Feel fine waiting half an hour to get a toasted bagel? The this is the place for you. Has anyone been to Beyond Bagels in north reading? Just as good. And no line. Only reason I came here was because it’s open on Sunday.
