I’ve purchased bagels from BagelManea for many years. Recently, a group of us decided to do a blind taste test of bagels from BagelMainea, Sunrise Bagels and Sand Hill bagels. With our eyes blindfolded, we each sampled a toasted sesame bagel with butter from each place. The vote was 5-1-1, with the highest vote count going to the Sunrise bagel. The consensus was that the bagels from BagelMainea, while having a good crust, were too doughy. We hope that BagelMainea can get back to a crustier, more chewy, less bulbous bagel.

Cute little place. First time coming here I got the sausage breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel and my girlfriend got 2 different bagels with raspberry cream cheese on one and cinnamon raisin cream cheese on the other and it was all delicious and not bad prices either. Safe to say next time were in Augusta we'll be stopping here!

2-17-24 8:20 amMiddle aged lady of short stature was a contamination problem. We watched her with our own eyes shove chips in her mouth (like some do when eating popcorn), placing palm against mouth to push clump of chips into mouth. She kept the chips to her right of the register along with a drink. She did this several times, then we watched her press a lid onto a beverage cup with the same hand for a customer. Never washed her hands. This employee had each finger nail painted every other color. Tattoo on neck. I did not catch her name. Anyone handling food should not be eating themselves in fact handling money and serving food and beverages is not sanitary. Perhaps a worker only working cash register would solve the contamination problem. I want to add she laughed at us to another customer cause we were looking over their menu and we invited people to go ahead of us. (Not in a nice way, as rolling her eyes and with an irritated demeanor was done at the same time) It appears that she is intimidated but the young beautiful girl with me and only cares to be friendly with male customers. The other staff was super nice and did a great job with our bagels. Please see to it she receives some training in food safety and customer satisfaction. Those bagels were yummy.

I LOVE this place. This was our spot in high school and I always make sure to stop by when I'm visiting home. It's so cozy inside and there the service is always very friendly! There are so so many bagels to try and a lot of different sandwiches to order. My go-to order is the Honey-Avo-Turkey on a salt bagel. It's super delicious and it's what I always order when I stop in. Definitely stop here if you're in the Augusta area and need breakfast or a sandwich for lunch.

Got a turkey BLT on sourdough and my friend got one on an onion bagel. The number of selections was fantastic, the inside of the shop is beautiful, beautifully decorated, plenty of quiet places to sit, the staff had a christmassy twinkle in their eye. I effing love this place. Thanks guys!

What a great little Find! My hubby and I are moving to the area. After clearing trees and brush on our land, we were famished and hoping to find a good, quick meal. This spot checks all the boxes! Fresh, well-made bagels in a variety of flavors - and I'm a huge bagel snob, originally being from NY - great service, lots of interesting sandwich options too! And -- wait for it -- jazz on the weekend! They even have cans of wine and Prosecco to round out your weekend brunch plans. We look forward to being neighborhood regulars!
