Bagels Restaurants near Alexandria, VA

“Sitting in an alleyway, I can’t believe I didn’t try this place sooner. That was a good bacon bagel!“

“Despite the name, they serve more than pizza. Sandwiches , pasta, etc. interesting options like tandoori pizza or shawarma pizza. Friendly staff. I got a gift card so I just visited for the first time to use it, but I will definitely be back!“

“We ate there and everything was delicious. Tried new foods too. The kids even loved theirs“

“Finally a place that has a fantastic bagels, got a 1/2 dozen and ate 2 by the time I got to my car! Crispy on the outside and soft in the interior! Had the pastrami sandwich and Turkey Reuben for lunch. Also a big plus, they had Brown’s Cel Ray soda!“

“I'm from Long Island, NY and 100% a bagel snob. I've been to more than a few places here and this place is #1 when it comes to bagels and sandwiches. They used to make egg everything bagels on the daily (my fav) but stopped since I guess not many people bought them, which is the only somewhat negative thing I can say. However, they will make them if you ask for a dozen a day ahead. Either way, their bagels are always fresh and warm and delicious. Their egg sandwiches on bagels are amazing as well! This is the only place that is even slightly comparable to NY and I will stand by that forever!“

“Bagels were delicious and customer service was outstanding. I also witnessed the staff being kind to people in their community. It was a small act of kindness but it showed me the type of business it was. I will be back every time we are in town and I recommend everyone to visit here and support them.“

“Best bagel I ever had! Great customer service! I love this place! Hilltop!“

“they give you more than ypu need. fulfillment!!“

“This is a super small, unassuming little shop, but it is an absolute must-try. The bagels are incredibly delicious, chewy, and fresh. They have a brilliant selection of both bagel varieties and spreads/toppings, meaning there is something to satisfy every craving.

The only crucial thing to keep in mind is that they do not accept card payments. It is strictly a cash-only establishment, so make sure to come prepared. If you are looking for a top-tier, no-nonsense bagel in D.C., I highly recommend checking this place out!“

“I have been coming to Brooklyn Bagel weekly for over a decade. They have hands down the best bagels in the region, and also the best employees (I call them my bagel heroes)! Even with the recent growth of other bagel spots in the region, Brooklyn Bagel remains the best. Absolutely worth the trip! Be prepared for lines on the weekend and bring cash to pay and tip to make the experience better for everyone.“

“We came for a weekday brunch. We ordered a breakfast sandwich and a spinach omelet. The delicious sandwich was on a beautiful grilled bagel, and the egg portion was generous as was the cheese. The omelet was stuffed full of saites spinach, mushrooms, sausage and cheese. It was served with homemade potatoes and toast. We finished the meal with a generous fruit cup that was also delicious. The only thing that would have made it better was eating on a real plate and not paper. However, the food is totally worth making this a regular stop!“

“We thoroughly enjoyed the best bagels and coffee at this place! We had two different bagel sandwiches and both were delicious!“

“Sylvan Cafe has a quiet and quaint atmosphere with lovely jazz playing in the background. The staff is very kind and lovely and the food comes out fast.

The food is amazing and I mean really good for the price. 17 dollars for a veggie platter, is an amazing deal and the quality is out of this world it tastes delicious. Would recommend for anyone passing by in the neighborhood to stop by and support this small business.“

“Great bagels and staff. Having lived in Philly and NY, I came to DC with a high standard for bagels. Call Your Mother is the truth.“

“Great food and drinks! Lovely atmosphere! My favorite are the Belarusian and Ukrainian dishes like borscht and bliny. Also, love the light desserts.“

“Great buffet and grill that feels like home. The owners are like family! Chef does a great job!“

“This little cafe is extremely nice and cozy. I really liked how the employees treated me and how they helped me out with my order. And on top of all that the food was very fresh and delicious and of course the matcha latte. Thank you very much !“

“I love this bagel spot—it’s consistently good, and the staff is always genuinely friendly. It’s more of a grab-and-go place than somewhere to sit and dine, but they do have a small table inside and a couple outside.

They’re also pet-friendly, which I really appreciate. They’ve given my dog bacon before. It’s those small, thoughtful touches that make a place stand out.

Anytime I’m craving a bagel, this is where I go. The spreads are great, and the menu is well-curated—plenty of solid options without feeling overwhelming.

Also, a small but underrated detail: they usually have good music playing, which makes the experience and wait time that much better.“

“Great staff with the best bagels I ever had. The Oriole is delicious.“

“Best bagels in northern Virginia by far. The smoked salmon, the everything bagels, the vegetarian sandwich are the highlights for me. They’re right on the edge of what I’d be willing to pay for bagels but the quality is very good. The consistency has also improved since they moved from the food truck. Coffee isn’t that great at least for me.“

“One of the best bagels I’ve ever had. Most definitely would reccomend. I had an everything bagel toasted and was only $2.75. There is also free water there and honey, etc. Nice atmosphere with a window to see the cats at the next door cat cafe. Prettt aesthetic seating location and many options that are very reasonably priced.“

“Delicious, serious, fast, tasty. And they donate their day-old bagels to food pantries & shelters!“

“Wow! I’m mind blown of the quality of the bagels especially with the garlic & herbs cream cheese. The bagel was so moist and soft with essence of grandmas bake goods.

Great service and I’m so glad it popped up in my neighborhood. Yummm !!!!!“

“This is my second time coming here , the first time I was welcomed with so much hospitality by a worker named Marie Kepsu Simo , she is such a remarkable women with amazing costumer service and I’m just so grateful that u had that encounter with her , she truly made my day. Everything she makes is prepared with love and care!!“

“Wow what a great find. I came out this way to go to a nearby doctors appointment and stumbled upon this hidden gem. They have a great selection of bagels 🥯, salads and sandwiches. The raspberry-chocolate coffee and bagel were both perfect. Some places don’t get coffee and bagels right but this place does!!!!Lol I’ll make sure to see my doctor again here in McLean, VA instead of MD just so I can stop by this deli. To the owner: My only suggestion is to carry Scones. Also the ladies working behind the counter were very friendly and professional .“

“Wish there was one in Lexington Park ;) One on my way to work would be super sweet for everyone. *I share 😁“

“Leandra was amazing! From the moment we sat down, she made us feel comfortable and welcomed. Her energy was everything,friendly, attentive, and just an all-around great vibe. She really had the bar popping and brought such a fun atmosphere to the whole experience. You can tell she genuinely enjoys what she does, and it shows in the way she connects with people. Great service, great energy, and definitely someone who makes you want to come back!“

“Lol at the reviews here. We are not in New York. Understood. These are good DC bagels. This is also not a full service restaurant. It's primarily online orders. They will take your order in store, but it will take time if they're busy. Level your expectations, enjoy your bagel.“

“Amazing bagel/ breakfast and sandwich spot. Super fresh and reasonable prices. Tons of options.

Be sure to check your order before leaving; I didn’t check my bagel this morning and there’s a ton of bacon on it and I had to throw out the whole thing (I can’t eat pork).“

“We stumbled upon Baked by Yael when we visited the Old Town Alexandria’s farmers market and David was wonderful and helped us discover their cake pops and that our little guy could eat them! We then had the pleasure of speaking with Yael when we visited the shop in DC. We had a cookie bar, black and white cookie (divine) and more cake pops that our kiddo could have! Finding a place that understands food allergies and has items that we can eat has been amazing! Highly recommend!“

“Great staff with the best bagels I ever had. The Oriole is delicious.“

“The Chicken Avocado Wrap was really good, and seemingly a great deal at $10.90, but somehow when I added a Snapple tea, the total came to $15.84. That leads me to belive that unpriced drink was like $4. Moral of the story, those unpriced drinks is where they make up for the lower entree prices.“

“something quick, delicious and friendly staff.“

“Great sandwiches! Today I enjoyed the grilled chicken burrito. It was outstanding! Nice and fresh! The beef and chicken cheesesteaks are also delicious!“

“Got my order wrong once but other that it a cool spot.“

“stopped in while on vacation food was great nice friendly staff reasonable prices“

“I go to the Arlington location more, but you can’t go wrong at any of their locations. This is a great spot when I have business in the L’Enfant area. Cheeseburgers, hot dogs and French fries are excellent, but chicken sandwich is great as well.“
