I loved the variety of bagels they offer, the service is incredible, the service in general was very satisfactory, we didn't wait long for the food, they actually brought it out quickly; The fact that they produce their breads themselves makes the difference, the flavor is original and fresh to the palate, and the natural juices are also very good. I recommend this place. I liked it a lot.

I've finally found my go-to spot for the perfect bagels, and I couldn’t be happier! I can't even begin to express how much I adore Top of the Bagel! From the moment you walk through the door, you're greeted with the warmest smiles and a local vibe that feels like home.
The bagels here are nothing short of extraordinary. Freshly baked to perfection, they have the perfect balance of crispy outside and chewy inside. I personally can't get enough of the everything bagel, but the blueberry and jalapeño cheddar are also delightful surprises. Each bite is like a little piece of heaven! What really sets Top of the Bagel apart is their incredible variety of homemade toppings and spreads. The herb and garlic cream cheese is my absolute favorite! So light and fluffy yet bursting with flavor. Customizing my bagel here is always a fun and delicious adventure.
If you're in the mood for something more substantial, their turkey pesto panini with avocado is simply divine! I love that they only use the freshest produce and Boar’s Head deli meats.
I am not a big coffee drinker, so I really love that they offer a selection of fresh juices and smoothies in addition to coffee, making it easy to find the perfect drink to match your mood.
What impressed me most is that the service here is truly top-notch! The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Rosio and Karla are always eager to help me with recommendations. Even during busy times, they manage to keep everything running smoothly and make you feel like a valued guest.
I can't say enough good things about Top of the Bagel. It's a gem in the heart of Carlsbad, and I look forward to every visit. Whether you're a local or just passing through, you have to stop by and try their bagels. Trust me, you'll be hooked!

The bagel sandwich was, as expected, not the best in the world, but perfectly satisfying. What got me was the friendliness of the staff. Daniel was incredibly accommodating to me and everyone that came in. I would eat here again.

The food here is all freshly made early in the morning, and you can taste in the food. The service made me feel like I was part of the family and I was picking up a homemade meal before heading to work.

Ordered through a delivery service. The egg on the New York style bagel sandwich was rubbery and dry. The asiago bagel tasted stale and my drink order was incorrect. The lox on the other bagel tasted off, like it was going bad.

I watched the guy as he was making my sandwich add an ingredient and thrown in micro for 34 seconds
Adds another ingredient then right back in for another 34 seconds
And continues with all 4 ingredients for a combined 3 minutes for a microwaved bacon egg and cheese
The egg was complete rubber I could bounce it on the ground and for my cream cheese bagel I got the most disappointing shmear I was overall not impressed with my visit
I love Top of the Bagel! They have delicious food at great prices. Their bagels are all made fresh and are very high quality.

Underwhelming spot. Got a bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast bagel. Threw away half the bagel (dry and doughy, not chewy) and forced myself to eat the egg (very rubbery). The bacon was okay, but the cheese had a glue-like consistency. Staff was nice, spot was fine.
