Literally the best bagels in the area, the only bagels that would satisfy my family from New York, there is a reason why they'd often run out of some flavors of bagel and spreads later in the day, the spreads were fresh and fantastic I always took one home, I loved the breakfast sandwiches, they'd require the spread though to really make them stand out, my favorites were the lox spread and the garlic and herb spread. My girlfriend loved the Ruben from the hot sandwich list. You couldn't go wrong with the pizza bagels as a snack. The workers were always kind to me they always remembered name actually, they often were just focused on their work which is totally cool, it's a pretty straightforward process to order bagels, some people seem upset at them in some of these reviews I'm just surprised people would need so much assistance at a local corner bagel shop. Their coffee game was simple, big containers of "Dietrich's" coffee, one specifically for iced coffee, honestly though it always tasted noticeably good and fresh I would often happily drink it black, like they actually seemed to take care when brewing it, it's the only reason why I remember the name of the coffee, I think they sold bags of it too off to the side. I'll miss them if they don't come back after the fire. I hope they do

Was a good place for breakfast. Great coffee and good selection of bagels freshly made! Unfortunately the strip mall where is located was recently hit by fire and the Bagelry is no longer there. Sure hope they can reopen or relocate somewhere near by!

Been coming here every Monday at 6am, for almost 2 years, for a dozen bagels for the office. In the past, I have gotten 6 salt bagels (our office fave), and an assortment of others. A couple months ago, I was told that I would have to pre-order if I wanted more than 4...even though the basket was full? I took off a star for being told I had to "pre-order" 2 more bagels. The bagels are good. The service isn't with a smile, but it's early.

I had a great time.Very tasty lox bagel, very fesh.The place looks a bit old, but the tasty bagles make up for it.I will definitely come here again.*the lox bagel is a bit pricy in my opinion

While the lady behind the counter was very kind, overall I did not have a good experience. Iced coffee is just a cup filled with ice, you have to go pour piping hot coffee over it to end up with Luke warm coffee. No dairy free milk options or milk itself, just half and half. I got a bagel with Lox spread for about $4.65 only to realize that Lox spread is just cream cheese with tiny, microscopic bits of Lox. I guess I should have been more suspicious of real fish at that price. They don't have a large bagel selection, particularly for savory lovers. I got sesame and saw they also had salt & garlic (didn't look very appetizing). No cheese, Parmesan, everything, or jalapeño bagels. They charge an extra $0.50 for using any kind of card instead of cash. I won't be back.

Geez these ladies are so pathetic, again I was ordering multiple bagels and they continued to walk away in between me ordering. So rude, like let me finish ordering. Get another job if you hate your life so much.

A solid, reliable, neighborhood spot with repeat customers and regulars that are friendly with the staff. There's such a huge number of bagel options that can be combined with hot or cold sandwiches or just regular cream cheese. There's a nice, quiet ambience and delicious food. I'll be back for my rare but likely bagel craving :)

I've had 2 different non-onion bagels here, and they both tasted like onions. One of them was a cinnamon bagel. It was like they took a Panera Cinnamon Crunch bagel, washed off most of the good cinnamonness, and then sprinkled on just a touch of inexpensive onion powder. Should have known better after the egg sandwich I had a few months ago, but onion flavor in that is kind of the chef's choice.

Really soft and fresh bagels. A good variety as well. Price was not gouging at all. I'd go back for sure.

The bagels are great, but the service is poor, Slow service on the weekends is the normal for this place.

Being from NY it is hard to find begals that remind me of home. This is my go to place. Friendly quaint place to sit (or takeout), have a bagel, cup of coffee, & chat with friends inside or outside. The girls are friendly and efficient. I recommend this place over neighboring places.

Double toasted palm springs bagel is the best of the bestest.

I love the bagels here. I usually just get the plain bagel w/ jalapeño spread. However, I do not like the customer service here. The ladies here are very rude and basically rush you when you order. And they will cut you off when you talk. And if you don't respond to their question right away they will make the decision for you. Honestly that was the only issue I have with this place, but other than that their bagels are good.
