Bagels Restaurants near Chula Vista, CA

“I walked in and was the second person in line for lunch and I had to wait about 15 minutes. My two cents — I think your sandwich person or someone else can be crosstrained to use the register so that there are two people at the register especially for a busy lunch time, and especially if youre sandwich person doesn’t have anything to do. I saw two people walk out because the line was taking too long. Five stars because I always want to support Eastlake businesses, but I wanted to give some constructive feedback as a customer. Food was ready within 5 minutes, so it was pretty fast after ordering.“

“variety & delicious for a time to relax and enjoy 😉“

“Good morning 🌞 . Rise and shine ✨.“

“After coming here for four years, the service has consistently been great. When my brain is fried from being a college student and parent, the staff is always friendly and smiley even when I stall or forget half of my order. They are life savers and the support I never knew I would get. Food is excellent, ambience is calm and the service is fast.“

“When we visit San Diego, we eat here at least 3 times. We absolutely LOVE their bagels (they are heavenly and actually give you a good amount of cream cheese!)I love the look of their merch, my only complaint is that we visit yearly, every single year I try to get merch and they are always “sold out” 😔 I dunno how everything is always sold out every-time I ask the last 8 years. Online they tend to be sold out as well the few times I have looked. It is such a dang bummer. I’d love to support with wearing merch. Still hoping one trip I’ll get lucky and they will have something in stock 😅. Also, their lemonade is super super tart. So if you like it sweet like I do, dont get it. The sugar did not help it at all and I added a ton 😂 The other drinks are good!“

“Probably the best coffee I’ve had outside of Washington state since I’ve been here. Food was excellent and a good value also!“

“Me n my girls stopped in for açaí bowls and they were so yummy and filling. My daughters loved the suggestion to add Nutella. We will definitely come again!!“

“Your basic chain bagel situation. Very similar to Einstein bros bagels. I got a pastrami and egg and a corned beef and egg bagel sandwiches for breakfast. They were decent. I would recommend coming here for a quick cheap grab and go breakfast.“

“Apparently this doughnut shop has been around for a long time. I driven by here hundreds of time and didn't even know it was there. I stopped in for a maple old fashion and a cup of coffee.

The maple old fashion was very good. It had those good crisp edges and soft middle. The maple flavor was very good. The lady Chen, dropped a couple of glazed doughnut holes in my bag and they were good. The coffee was very good. It was of the drip variety and it was smooth with good flavor.

The owner Chen was very nice. She was a one woman crew when I came in, and with several customers, the handled it well with a smile on her face. The doughnut shop offers a variety of doughnuts, breakfast sandwiches, frozen yogurt, and ice cream.“

“BCB Bagels is one of those rare places that instantly becomes a non-negotiable stop once you’ve had it. From the moment you walk in, you can tell this spot is dialed. There’s a perfect balance of local energy, efficiency, and straight-up pride in what they’re serving.

Let’s start with the bagels themselves, because that’s where BCB separates from 99% of the competition. These bagels are legitimately elite — crispy, golden, and slightly blistered on the outside, with that chewy, dense, New York–style interior that most places try to replicate and completely miss. Every bite has structure, flavor, and texture. They’re not fluffy bread circles pretending to be bagels — these are the real deal.

Now the sandwiches. Absolute weapons. Perfect ratios every time. Nothing sloppy, nothing dry, nothing overdone. Whether you’re going classic breakfast, loading up on bacon/egg/cheese, or going full deli-style, everything tastes intentional. The eggs are cooked right, the meats are high quality, the spreads are generous without being overpowering, and the bagel never gets soggy — which is honestly impressive.

The cream cheese game deserves its own paragraph. Smooth, rich, and flavorful, with options that actually taste fresh and well-balanced. Not overly whipped, not bland, not clumpy. You can tell they care.

Service-wise, BCB absolutely crushes it. The staff is friendly, fast, and locked in, even when the line’s out the door. Orders come out quick, accurate, and with zero attitude — which matters way more than people admit. It feels like a place run by people who genuinely want you to have a good experience, not just get you in and out.

Atmosphere? Classic local gem vibes. Clean, welcoming, and buzzing with regulars — which is always the best sign. You’ve got surfers, locals, families, and people who clearly know food all in the same space. That alone tells you everything you need to know.

Bottom line: BCB Bagels isn’t just good — it’s top tier.“

“Good Bagel & ☕ Nice location“
