Bagels Restaurants near South San Francisco, CA

“Stopped by on a whim for a quick lunch to-go after a trip to Costco. Got an Italiano sandwich with garlic sauce. It was very fresh tasting and LOADED with meat! I could barely get my mouth around it. It was so big, I saved half for lunch tomorrow. Excellent tasting and a great bargain!“

“A friend recently introduced me to Laundromat Bagel & Cafe on Balboa Street in the Outer Sunset, and I'm so glad they did.

The cafe immediately stood out thanks to the irresistible aroma of freshly baked bagels drifting onto the street. Inside, the space felt airy and inviting, with a thoughtful blend of wood and metal accents that created a warm, modern atmosphere. What impressed me just as much was the staff. Everyone was welcoming, smiling, and genuinely friendly. Their warmth made the experience feel personal and memorable.

As for the bagels, they are hands down superior to most bagels I've had in San Francisco. Even without toasting, the exterior had a satisfying crunch while the inside remained light and fluffy. The flavor was wonderfully balanced—neither sweet nor grainy, but pleasantly nutty. Most remarkable of all, the bagels weren't overly chewy, allowing their texture and flavor to shine.

The cream cheese deserves special recognition as well. The best way I can describe it is New York meets Bay Area style: dense and creamy, yet somehow light and fluffy, with just the right amount of tanginess.

I'm thrilled to have been introduced to Laundromat for its exceptional bagels. Now I have every reason to return and see what their pizza and beer are all about.“

“i ordered delivery. i got the turkey avocado on an everything bagel, and just their daily special scallion-sesame bagel (wednedays). they do not skimp out on ingredients for their sandwiches. i appreciate that. also the bagels themselves were a lot bigger than i expected! the only note i have is that the bagels were kind of tough. wish they were softer i guess, and that’s counting both toasted and untoasted bagels.“

“Stumbled upon this place and loved it!“

“Great little find while touring the city! Had to stop by three times in two days. Fantastic sandwich’s and great pastries.“

“I’ve been coming here for years and it has been my favorite. I work across the street so my colleagues and I love coming here for breakfast or lunch. The owners are so kind and sweet and always in the happiest mood. I highly recommend their open faced lox bagels and their hot link bagel dogs .“

“Cafe International is a welcoming cafe in Lower Haight. The delightful owner, Zahra, is inviting and warm. The food is as outstanding as the coffee, making it the perfect spot to checkout. Be sure to stay for the live music.“

“Love the cozy atmosphere here.“

“One of the best bagels I’ve had in a long time. I got an Asiago bagel with chive cream cheese and a glazed donut. Texture, taste and toasted to perfection. The donut was also very good (similar to Stan’s Donuts in San Jose. IYKYK) I also got an iced vanilla latte and it was okay.“

“Absolutely delicious!! I took a bite before taking a picture. The bread tasted so so fresh, cream cheese was locally sourced from a James Dairy Farm, and there were so many veggies in the smear. You can tell a difference from Holey Bagel that this place has fresher ingredients.“

“great service, delicious sandwiches“

“Solid! I got an egg, cheddar, and sausage sandwich on a sesame bagel for $10.95 and took it across the street to eat in the cute Noe Valley plaza. The workers were friendly and the service was very fast. Great spot for a hearty midday snack.“

“Coffee is amazing and the food was great! The couple that owns and operates this cafe are so personal and go to every measure to make your experience the best! I highly recommend this place!“

“I tend to forget to take pictures sometimes. But by far, my favorite bagel spot in the bay. Warm toasty bagels. Delicious sandwiches. Always great customer service. You want a nice thicccccck bagel sandwich you go to docs. The rolled hotdogs and hotlinks are delicious, too!“

“Great 👍 🔥🔥🔥🔥😜😜🔥😜😜😜😜😜😜🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“Temo's Cafe - the place, the people, where you find good coffee, a smile, understandig and, if needed, helping hand. Lamea is an angel...was our angel... long time ago. We never will forget you, Lamea, and your open heart... And your nice, lovely family ... A kiss and a hug from Petra and Anna“

“I love this spot! My sister used to work here while I was growing up as well as a few friends while I was in my teens. It has always been a peaceful place to draw, read, catch up with a friend, and sip coffee with a snack. They have changed ownership a number of times and always retained good quality! From time to time a man will come in and play piano on the out of tune wooden one. Mostly 60s-early 80s music, he knows all the lyrics too! The landscape artwork by Pam Anderberg is really phenomenal and matches the coastal energy of the cafe. Couldn’t speak higher of a cafe in Pacifica!
The line can be a bit overwhelming on weekends if there is an event. When there was a running event I think it took 20 minutes to get a coffee and muffin.

Reducing a star because of a female barista here that gave terrible service. I asked if I could order two separate single shot espressos, instead of a double shot to which she responded “take your scam somewhere else this is a small business etc.” and generally took a harsh tone. I still ordered and just got a double shot. When I gave her cash for this, she tossed the change back across the counter from my purchase which slid onto the floor. This interaction has stuck with me as I’ve never had a problem visiting this cafe before. Anytime I see this barista behind the counter I decide I’ll just have coffee at home instead.“

“Good for a quick bite. I like the local feel of the place but it can get very crowded, especially on the weekends so I'm glad for the outdoor tables. I like to stop by when I'm going to hang out near Ocean Beach. The food is tasty!“

“clean place, great emoyees, and great food!“

“We stop Here every time we go through San Francisco. Their coffee is marvelous and the pastries we have tried are delicious. The atmosphere is definitely San Francisco neighborhood welcoming and the mural Inside reminds me of an Italian village. Don’t miss this stop.“

“Super strong Americano lovely place sandwiches were good. More meat on pastrami would have been nice all in all look forward to returning“

“Great experience at the The Bagel Bakery Cafe. May was wonderful and super friendly. My manager and myself were on a work trip and decided to stop in for breakfast. Being from NY we have a high standard for a good bagel and I will say those standards were surpassed! - Marcin & Matt“

“Great ambience and a nice smell. There is a cool are in the back with blinds and lots of nice space in the front by windows too. I love the plants! The Barista was very nice and had a warm aura. Also!! While neither my Brother nor I tried the baked goods they looked delightful and I LOVE that they were locally made and had a 100% plant-based option! ❤️“

“Great friendly cafe, right on Pacifica’s beach. Lots of whale watching and hang gliders nearby. Super music on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am until 4pm.“

“Visited Martha’s with a friend who lives in Bernal Heights. In order the Masala Chai hot tea, which I thought would be just hot tea and then found out it is a latte. It was delicious, although it wasn’t what I was expecting! Cute little shop with more seating than one would expect in a small coffee shop.“

“195 years ago a gentleman named Hansen Gregory was born in Rockport Maine. He was an ambitious Scottish lad that took to the ocean to become a captain. He enjoyed fried dough cakes but didn't appreciate the undercooked greasy center that they often had. He is usually credited as the origin of ring shaped donuts by punching out the center with a pepper box lid. If Gregory was alive today he would be fascinated with how many wonderful and creative ways you can produce this circular delight. I may not be a captain of a ship but I am happy to make ML Donuts apart of my voyage!“

“I cannot sing the praises of earths coffee enough. Remarkable prices and incredible sandwiches and smoothies, and even more astounding is the service and community care from the owner Lang. Lang knows every person who works through the door“

“Wowsers — awesome bagels, Italian style, and a must-try addition to SF’s excellent bagel scene. I stumbled across this gem by serendipity, via a bagel craving enroute to work downtown. And BOOM! Tony Gemelli delivered, with truly exceptional bagels and other baked goods on offer starting 8am. I like the everything with smoked salmon/CC, and usually take a few loaves of the terrific breads home. Tucked away a little out of the way, but SOOO worth it. Thank you Tony, you are a genius and a gentleman!“

“A Burlingame sweet American donut story pass on from a Polish Jewish immigrants- Philip Kares who open the shop in the late 1970’s; sold it to the Chows in the 80’s, to the Lu’s and now passed on to the Choi. Special memorable thanks to Philip and his family, the staffs—Kathy, Alversia, Alfonso, Mike, Ray, Steve, Genie, —and the many wonderful customers who help made this place specials...“

“I love this cafe. Food delish and space relaxing to write in.“

“Best bagels and cream cheese in the city! I've been to their Fillmore Street location several times, but this is my first time at this specific location. The employees were fun and friendly. There isn't a spot to eat inside, but there are many tables to eat at outside.“

“Stopped by on a Saturday morning and there was no line, and I had my food within 5 minutes of ordering. I went with a custom everything bagel with egg salad. Both were incredibly fresh and made for a very satisfying meal. The shop has a lovely, open atmosphere where you can watch the bagel making process. This does seem like a takeout spot as there isn’t really any dining space. It is a bit pricey, but given the quality and freshness, it felt well worth it. Great bagel spot in general.“

“Yum… Can’t get enough of P-Town Coffee n Tea.“

“Easily a 5-star spot. The owner, Santos, is one of the kindest, most attentive people you’ll meet and truly cares about every customer and the community.

Service is always quick, warm, and thoughtful. Ordering online and picking up in-person is always a breeze.

Menu offers both classics and creative spins on favorites; the avocado toast, served open-faced and loaded with fresh arugula, is a standout! And don't miss the great selection of fresh juices and grab-and-go snacks/beverages in the fridge.

So grateful to have a place like this. It’s an absolute neighborhood favorite.“

“The horchata French toast and is sooo good. I also love the florentine Benedict is also amazing. Parked at the mission Bartlett garage.
Service and ambiance were also great. As much as I want to gate keep this place they deserve to blow up.“

“Ordered online & picked up at the front of the store at this time of social distancing. My daughter & I ordered mushroom bisque soup & sandwiches. Hazel's did not disappoint! We will be back 💜“

“Woke up with jet lag and starving in the holiday inn around the corner. Skipped the boring hotel breakfast and walked 2 minutes down the road to this absolute gem. Exactly what it says on the tin, perfect New York style bagels. I had the lox on everything and a coffee, cost me $9.25 and it was delicious. Have sat here for half an hour watching the old lady serving customers without uttering a syllable. What a legend. Love her for it, I hope this place never changes.“

“Came on a Saturday late morning - around 10:30am. There were only two people manning the store, but my god they were so enjoyable to be around that it made the wait actually worth it. The bagels were amazing, sure, but I would come here every day if I weren't from the East Coast just to be in the presence of these two very funny, happy workers. Would 100% recommend.“

“Love this place, they have a surprisingly extensive menu and the food is great. And it’s quick, like the food comes out crazy fast.

It’s a tough neighborhood sometimes but the folks here are kind to everyone and there’s a warm vibe. Prices are reasonable as well. Thank you!!!!!“

“I love wise sons! From the bagels to the french toast and latkes…everything on the menu is absolutely delicious. Very festive and calm atmosphere. Excellent service, including Coco at the front desk. They were so helpful and a delight to talk to. 5/5 recommend to everyone who visits the area.“

“Wow. What a delicious cake 🎂 we ordered. Everyone should try their desserts, they are absolutely amazing!“

“This being one of the few breakfast options on Castro I decided to try it. I ordered the Lox sandwich because I’ve been craving a lox bagel. I got it with the jalapeño bagel and I liked the bagel part but with so many cucumbers and tomatoes in between it was messy and fell apart easily, I would’ve preferred less veggies and a little more salmon. For $14s I was disappointed. If I ever go back I’ll just get a bagel with spread.“

“Highest quality bagels! Incredible service.“

“I got the California as I usually do. It's so good hot and so juicy. Highly recommend coming here“

“Cafeto coffee shop is amazing. The barista was very nice and made our drinks and sandwiches very well. The spicy chai was authentic and delicious as well as the iced mocha. The breakfast sandwiches were perfect! Would definitely recommend :)“

“I had the power egg white sandwich, which was both nutritious and delicious. I was disappointed that i could not get hot green tea.“

“BEST coffee in a week! Thank goodness. Excellent bagel and sandwich. Friendly service at reasonable price.“

“wow!!!! i couldn’t believe the quality of the cake donuts here!!!!! Such an amazing hidden gem. This incredible family establishment deserves so much credit…..amazing quality bagels AND ive actually never had a donut i truly loved until here. The maple is amazing but really any flavour :)“

“Pretty good bagels and variety of smears. Love the Cali Lox but make sure to ask for extra smears on whatever bagel you order. They also serve salads and lunch bagel sandwiches.“

“Service was awesome. Great job Joel. Sandwiches were delicious and oh yeah coffee hit the spot. Cool spot I agree for some great food.“
