A Bagel Revelation at Calic Bagels! I just had what might be the best bagel of my life at Calic Bagels, and I'm already planning my next visit! I dove into their Signature Calic Garlic Bagel and the Bacon Scallion Calic Bagel, and both were bursting with flavor. What truly set them apart was the meticulous attention to detail: the cream cheese was perfectly distributed, ensuring a delightful bite every time. The bagels themselves struck that elusive balance of being beautifully soft on the inside with a satisfying crispy exterior. The creaminess was pure perfection, a definite 10/10. Beyond the incredible food, the staff provided amazing service, the space was immaculately clean, and finding parking was no issue. Calic Bagels, you've officially won me over!

The lox bagel from Calic Bagel was out of this world. I’ve had bagels from all over, including New York City, and let me tell you, NYC officially has some serious competition. This place knows what they’re doing.
My boyfriend and I stopped by because I was seriously craving a good bagel, and Calic Bagel absolutely hit the spot. The bagels are fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. Honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, everything looked amazing.
We’re from out of town, so unfortunately we won’t be back anytime soon, but if you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and check this place out. Highly recommend!

Ordered a delivery.
It was out of my expectation, and delicious.
I loved the coffee too.
That mini garlic is cute, and yummy. Why 4 stars? Because the bagel is a little hard to bite, and quite hurt my mandible. But I still liked it, and will come back for breakfast for sure. The bacon scallion garlic is rich in layers and diverse in flavor.

My server was very helpful especially when ordering. He was very nice. I recommend all to check this place out.
Parking: Ample room for handicap parking in front of escalators
Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of room everywhere and restrooms are very clean
The bagel is made from pizza dough bread I believe… idk… it doesn’t matter as it was the best thing I’ve put in my mouth in a minute. They also have a selection of really tasty cream cheese. Cookie bagel was interesting as well.

There are a lot of people during holidays, but there are fewer people on weekdays, so you can make more use of on-site reservations to pick up your goods. The first time I ate a sesame bagel and a garlic bagel, I was amazed. The aroma of sesame and garlic are both strong and the texture is very elastic. It is also very delicious when paired with blueberry cheese sauce. The second time I bought the signature garlic cheese and pizza garlic cheese, maybe because I arrived a little later than the scheduled pick-up time, the bagel was a little cold, so it wasn't that amazing when it arrived. I also tried the yuzu cheese sauce and I really like this Korean style.
BEST BAGELS !!! Came all the way from New York to try these !! Amazing customer service as well

There are no humans taking orders. Instead you order on a touch screen and you can only order regular bagels in multiples of two. Meaning a single person cannot order a single regular bagel. And there are no substitutions or customizations. Our order took forever and then it was stolen so had to be remade. The neighborhood is overrun with people so parking is a challenge. The bagels themselves were good and the garlic butter was good. Not even close to worth the hype.
My review is based solely on the one bagel I tried, their classic and most popular “Calic Bagel”. I was really excited to try it because I typically like garlic, I love bagels and trying new things. However, this bagel was waaaaay too oily and garlicky for my liking. I felt that my breath smelled like garlic for the entire day, I could scare away vampires if they existed in a 500 mile radius. Even then my biggest issue was that the bagel was just way too greasy. It is possible that there other spreads and bagels are better, but I never want to go back. Atmosphere was decent, the place looked pretty, and service was okay as I just used the self checkout machine and the people were nice.

Habanero stuffed bagel is AMAZING. Maybe the best bagel I've ever had. The cream cheese filling is sooooo good. I wanna try pizza and signature next time.
Egg and cheese sandwich on everything bagel was decent -- I'll stick with the stuffed bagels and skip the sandwiches from now on.
Came right before they closed at 2pm on a Thursday and there was zero line, and still stuffed bagels available.
Super friendly staff.

Delish bagel! 9/10 [not as fresh as I hoped for but still amazing]
