Rover Bagel

Did I drive almost two hours away to try these bagels? Yes, I did. Was it actually worth it? Without a doubt. Rover bagels are hands down the best bagels I’ve ever had. And I’ve had a lot of bagels, including the few years I lived in Brooklyn!!!! Don’t tell them. Damn. The texture, the flavor, I’m literally just eating an entire bagel straight out of the bag and feel like I’ve been living a lie—never knowing bagels could be THIS GOOD. PS my iced blueberry matcha was also delightful and not sweet. It was perfect. 10000/10 will make the drive again!

Only a take out window, but what you take out is awesome. Quality, taste, flavor, level of doughiness and char, perfect dare I say. Im not a huge fan of wood-fired but this has changed my mind. They are also a bit thinner and less chewy so better for any kind of sandwich than some of the larger versions around. Maine is not known for its bagels of course but this place has el eated the state of bagel noshery in Maine. Thanks team! ps use the online tool to order in advance. And turn on your GPS if you want to find this hole-in-the-wall (still a few detours in downtown Biddeford these days)

I highly recommend the "Take a hike"; while its ingredients are unknown to me, its flavor is outstanding. The staff's friendly demeanor and constant smiles are notable. This is a frequent destination for me during work.

A very very special thank you to the staff who worked 1/11/26. I noticed after I got home a credit was added to my order for the price of what I paid. After a particularly difficult string of shifts (overnights) in a busy hospital, I desperately needed a win. This is the best one I could have gotten. Thank you!❤️

I have gone about 4 times and every time it’s so good! Like other reviews say, the texture and crunch of the bagels are great. I like picking up a few bagels to make/prep at home too. Also, the lemon+thyme+honey cream cheese is so yummy!🤤 I’ve personally had no issues with order pickup times like some of the other reviews mention.
