Finally a great bagel shop in the area! I’ve been here a few times already since they opened and everything has been so good. Their matcha and coffee are actually like a craft coffee shop’s, the bagels and sausage egg and cheese are delicious, and the service is friendly and amazing. My new go to!

I came with my family for a quick and light breakfast on my way to work. Even though it was a Sunday at 8:30am, they were still pretty busy. We got a large coffee, a latte with oat milk, an egg on cheese on a bagel and lox bagel for a little less than $30. Which I thought was pretty reasonable. Bagels are super soft, which I know is a good thing, and I enjoyed, even though I like my bagels a little chewier/toastier. Everyone was super pleasant and friendly. And the place is very clean!

Stopped by this new bagel shop and it absolutely delivered. The bagels were delicious, and the pastries were excellent. We tried the chocolate chip cookie and the crumb cookie, both were outstanding. They also have a deli, which was a great bonus. I was able to grab deli meats along with drinks and bagels in one stop. The vibes are great, the decor is really nice, and there’s plenty of seating with lots of outlets if you want to sit and get some work done. Highly recommend checking this place out!

Finally a delicious bagel place in our area. The cream cheese is INCREDIBLE. So many great options! Incredible staff. TRY THE MATCHA IT IS DELICIOUS

★★★★★ 5.0 Nicole Altman · Feb 2026

I can confidently say the Bagel Bar deserves all of the hype it’s getting! The variety is amazing! From freshly baked bagels to delicious, well-crafted sandwiches, plus an incredible selection of cookies, muffins, and house-made pastries that truly taste homemade! The space itself is cozy, clean, and modern, making it a perfect spot to sit and enjoy your food or grab something to go. Everything is high quality and thoughtfully made! Their matcha latte is one of the best I’ve ever had, and clearly made with high-quality matcha. And the absolute star of the menu is the house-made vegan tofu cream cheese. Even if you’re not vegan, it’s unbelievably creamy and flavorful and honestly one of the best cream cheeses I’ve ever had. You can tell this place was created with so much care and intention
