If you like bagels, this is the place. Good variety. Quick, friendly service. Will visit again soon.

Just paid $7 for the absolute worst coffee of my life.
Will concede I am a bit of coffee snob, however when you charge $7 for a cold brew then you are opening yourself up to criticism.
Bagel was okay. Skip the coffee

Bagels are okay, unfortunately they have No Blueberry and a lack of selection.

Had to get on my 2nd account to really emphasize how horrible this place is. Against my better judgement I gave them another shot and oh my god — do not waste your money please. Bagel was somehow untoasted but tasted burnt, half a jar of jelly poured on top, leaked all over the bag before even opening. Lazy staff that can’t even make a bagel properly.

Just had the best service here. The guy behind the counter was so kind and helpful!

If you’re able to go to the other location, go to the other location. I love great bagel but this location is constantly dropping the ball. If I didn’t live 30 minutes from Woodland I would’ve gone there. More often than not my bagel is untoasted and freezing cold. Today was the worst bagel I have ever eaten in my life- butter piled on top of it as if it was 1/2lb of cream cheese. Again freezing cold despite me being there as it was bagged up. It’s disappointing and their prices for bagels is way too high for this mess.

*Beware!*
*Coming here you’ll be buying overpriced bagels and drinks, while also paying 5% of the total cost towards their employee health insurance.*
I used to come to great bagel a lot but as prices increased I’ve came a lot less.
Today I stopped by to get one of my favorites (Omelet bagel with ham and bacon) and noticed a new surcharge on the receipt…..
A 5% tax for their employee health and wellness. This is not mentioned in any way except in tiny print on their menu which I didn’t even see until I read other reviews on here while going to post this one.
This is far from normal as both the business I own we pay for insurance ourself and don’t add a surcharge to our customers. I hope ownership can recognize this problem and pay for their own employee insurance.
Best of luck great bagel, just lost another customer.

Buyer Beware .... they charge an additional 5% for Employee Heath and wellness on every order. What type of business plan is this ? If your prices don't cover your operations cost, you need to raise them ! I invite a response from the local owners on this matter.

Prices don't match what's on the menu. Only after you get to the checkout do they tell you that they've tacked on an extra fee hoping that you'll just go with it.
They have wonderful gluten free bagels but they only offer them on Saturdays and Sundays (bc why would people with gluten intolerance want to eat on other days?) and even though you’ve had to wait all week for one, you can’t get them after 10am usually bc they have sold out (bc why would people with gluten intolerance want to sleep in on a weekend?) Perhaps look into increasing your quantity??? If they’re sold out every day before 10 they’re obviously in demand

The food is always good here, I love their everything bagels and fresh oj (very expensive, but great nonetheless) I rated it a one star due to the 5% employee health & wellness surcharge they added to our price. They mention it in little bitty print on the bottom of their menu, but it's not obvious unless you're looking for it. I shouldn't have to pay an extra 5% for their employee health insurance. Great Bagel as an organization should already provide health insurance and PTO, the customer shouldn't have to pay an extra 5% for it.

Second time this month I drive 10 minutes to the bagel place and they are out of bagels hours before they close. Make more bagels, y’all! They’re good but not good enough to waste my time.

asiago bagel with cream cheese tastes like a wet pretzel with butter. was my first and last time there, teenage cashier with hair in his eyes and bad attitude was zero help with the menu and when I asked if they have any pesto (like panera) three out of the four employees turned around and laughed at me? do yourself a favor and make your own bagels from kroger, i promise they will taste better. not to mention they charge a 5% fee for “employee health and wellness”
