Stopped here twice in a 36 hour trip to Lexington and had a 5/5 experience both times. The everything bagel was soft and chewy and the scallion cream cheese had the perfect bite. Based on reviews, I tried a different bagel place when I was visiting Lexington a few months ago and DEEPLY regret that I missed out on this place back then.The staff was also very friendly at 7:10 AM on a Saturday morning and my bagel came out within 30 seconds. If I ever find myself visiting Lexington again this will be a must stop for me.

The food was decently good but extremely overpriced. I paid 24 dollars for a bagel and a juice. Overpriced for mediocre food.

Their name says it all. Just a great bagel. Traditional with a soft , slightly chewy center and nice crust on the outside. Definitely be back!

If you want to start your day right start it at The Great Bagel on Woodland! Kristen sets the tone and all of her staff are so professional and friendly! I'm from up North and GB could hang with any in NYC! They know my order as soon as I walk in the door and their coffee is my starter fluid. Don't miss them if you're in Lex and want the best.

Came here on a whim. Loved the atmosphere. I ordered the Kentucky Hot Brown on an Asiago bagel. Incredible.The coffee though was undrinkable. Hard pass on the raspberry mocha. Incredibly overpriced ($8.90). I wouldn’t have cared as much if it was good. But it was so bad I threw it away. Would come back for the bagels but not the coffee.

Great bagel is consistent and delicious - great coffee and bagel sandwich's. The staff is always very friendly and helpful with questions. Only reason I knocked off a star is price - for a counter order bagel shop it feels very expensive

I had the omelet on a bagel sandwich and they let you add the ‘fixins’ that you want. Very good.

I absolutely loved this place! I ordered the American breakfast sandwich with the Egg Bagel. It was perfectly cooked, made to order, everything tasted so fresh and delicious. I also tried the hashbrown and an iced vanilla latte. I would recommend everything. Stick to the Woodland location, I tried the Boston Rd. location and it was not as fresh.

So first I'm from New York and love BAGELS; But I wanted a lox and bagel and man did they deliver. The ladies behind the counter were kind, fast and quickly got my order and recommended coffee. I ordered a NYC breakfast sandwich on an everything Bagel (the lady taking my order recommended a chive spread) and it took less than 4-6 minutes for my order to be ready. I sat down and enjoyed my time as well as the atmosphere in the place(was job searching while eating so wi-if helped) I would gladly come back and recommend anyone come thru. *side note they add in a Employee health and welfare fee which I 10000% agree with as people who cook food and deal with people deserve better wages.

Bagels are pretty alright, wish they had more cream cheese options. I can't speak for the drip coffee, but that lattes were over priced for the burnt taste of the espresso, wouldn't recommend.

Great food and atmosphere. The American Sandwich is excellent (but just a bit pricey).

Amazing bagels! And they mill their own flour

Food was decent, and I do love a good bagel, but was highly disappointed and confused when I found it was paying a 5% “Employee health and wellness” fee. I was not informed about this prior to making the purchase, and was not given an option. On top of this, I was also asked to tip when ordering. I refuse to support any business that takes advantage of paying customers like this.
