Bagels Restaurants near Reston, VA

“Long time lover of Call Your Mother ever since I lived in DC, and very excited it is in Reston! However, while theyre usually on point about getting food orders correct, getting the right drink feels like a crapshoot. Three times in the last 5 months I've ordered a matcha latte and just gotten a regular coffee latte, and a separate time they forgot to finish my husband's coffee until i reminded them the cup was just sitting there. Very nice people but I have never had any other place be this chaotic with drink orders so I cannot give more than three stars.

Edit: updated because they were great with customer service response on this!“

“Matin and their manager (I think?) made my morning! They were so sweet and even gave me an extra bagel on the house! I usually don’t come out this way but I stopped on my way to church from Aldie, VA and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Great, speedy service with a smile!“

“Bagel delicios I recommend“

“Just moved to Virginia & decided to check out this bagel shop. Their bagels are fresh. I’ve tried the nova lox which was delicious also a classic plain cream cheese with poppy seed bagel and a ham, egg and cheese on an egg bagel. All were delicious. My new favorite place. Service was great friendly and quick.“

“Wow. Incredibly impressed with this place. The coffee tasted amazing. The latte was fantastic (get the vanilla cream) with a perfect amount of foam on top. The Nutella acma and the egg sandwich were a perfect start to the day. And everything reasonably priced. Better than reasonable- I haven’t seen a $5 breakfast sandwich in years. And a flavored latte under $5 is almost unheard of. Bathroom was clean. This place was great and I can’t wait to go back.“

“I was shocked at how good and real these NY-style bagels are. If you’ve had a fresh NY bagel, there is a distinct consistency of the outside and inside of the bagel that makes it enjoyable to eat untoasted. This place more than scratches the itch for a craving for NY bagels. I find myself just having a meal or a single bagel and cream cheese, taking a bite and applying a small amount of spread to savor each bite.“

“I've been coming here since 2021, and something has definitely changed recently.

The only way I can describe it is that the bagels seem to have lost their soul.

They used to be crisp on the outside, airy on the inside, and just imperfect enough in size and shape to feel genuinely handmade. Those little variations were part of their charm.

Now, they taste more processed and mass-produced. Every bagel looks and tastes exactly the same, which reminds me more of a chain sandwich shop than the distinctive bagels that originally made me a loyal customer.

The service is still excellent, the store remains welcoming, and I even like the newer logo.

But I genuinely miss the old-style bagels. If possible, I'd love to see a return to the baking approach that made them stand out in the first place.“

“Nice omelet; large bagels; good coffee. Appears to be very popular … line forms to the right 😂“

“Fairfax Deli never disappoints! The food is always fresh, delicious, and made exactly how you want it. The staff is friendly, fast, and welcoming, which makes every visit a great experience. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or something to go, they consistently deliver top quality. Highly recommend!“

“TL;DR: solid bagel sandwiches

Finally got to try this place as they continue to expand around the area. We arrived in the late morning/early afternoon and there were still a decent amount of people inside, as well as coming and going. They have seating indoor which is limited, and they have several tables outside.

FOOD:
~Ice americano (3.5/5): solid. On the lighter side for our preference.

~Pastrami Sun City (4.5/5): This sandwich was really good! Complex and non-muddy flavors.

~Jetski (3/5): Personal preference. It had good flavors, but it felt a little one-note for us in terms of texture.

~Pretzel bagel (2.5/5) with garlic and herb cream cheese (4/5): The pretzel bagel was a little too soft/not toasted enough for me. The flavor was okay. The cream cheese was PACKED with flavor though.

Overall, will definitely hit this spot up again.“

“The bagels are made every morning and delicious!!! When I go to Long Island, they asked me to bring some …“

“Thank you Nisha and Bobby’s Bagel Cafe for a superb charcuterie board for a family birthday party. It was a beautiful centerpiece and was so delicious - everyone loved it! Thank you for customizing it and adding a special treat for my favorite Taylor Swift fan 💚 she loved it!“

“What a magical place the Great Falls creamery is!!! Back in better ways! It always puts a smile on our faces. It is so much more than just an ice cream shop - it is an experience! The products are delicious, the staff is friendly and accommodating to reasonable requests. Have you tried the ice cream sandwich yet? You can customize your own! Can’t wait for the coffee and juices.“

“Stopped by with my twin girls and we had such a great experience! The staff was friendly and everything tasted delicious. My kids got the rainbow bagels with cream cheese and were absolutely thrilled. I tried the lox, and it was hands down the best bagel I’ve had in the area- fresh & flavorful! We’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!“

“This is my go-to for lunch when I am at the office and I've been going for 5 years. Family run business that makes the best sandwiches in Tysons. It's in the basement of an office building and is a very utilitarian space--you don't come here for the atmosphere. That said, it is always clean and well stocked with non-alcoholic drinks. Breakfast and lunch sandwiches are both great. You can eat there, or grab and take back to your office if you are nearby. My co-workers and I think the prices are on the low side, but that may be the economics of their location. A typical sandwich there is anywhere from $3-$5 cheaper than what you would expect topside in the Boro or Galleria, and the portions are actually bigger.

The owners are the best of best. Always welcoming and friendly.“

“I was hesitant to stop here because I wanted a sit down restaurant for breakfast, however I am very glad I did!! I ordered Breakfast #1 (2 eggs, meat, potatoes and toast) for $6.99 and devoured the eggs before I thought to take a pic.
Very clean. Ladies behind counter are very nice. Food was excellent. Will be coming back if in Fairfax.“

“Great food and beer, but the coffee shop that is supposed to open 8am doesn’t open sometimes despite the webpage and doors saying 8am“

“The food here is really good, and my kids love it, so we come here pretty regularly. I’d definitely recommend the food. The prices are on the higher side for a bagel shop, even for Ashburn, but that’s not really my issue.

The one thing I think could really improve is the customer service from the owners. The ladies who are usually making the food are always friendly, smiling, and upbeat. Once your order is ready, they bring it out, call your number, and hand it to you, and they’re always pleasant and moving around taking care of everyone.

The gentleman who is usually at the register is almost the complete opposite. He rarely smiles, doesn’t really engage with customers, and even when you say thank you or try to be friendly on the way out, you usually get very little response. The woman who I believe is also an owner is a little more personable, but overall there just doesn’t seem to be much effort from either of them to make customers feel welcomed or appreciated.

I grew up in the restaurant and hospitality business, and something as simple as smiling, saying hello, or acknowledging a regular customer goes a long way. The food is already good, and the rest of the staff does a great job, so I honestly think just a little more effort from the owners on that side would make the experience a lot better.

One other tip if you’re ordering: if you want something specific like a ham, egg and cheese or sausage, egg and cheese, I’ve found it’s better to just tell them exactly what you want on the sandwich rather than ordering one of the named sandwiches off the board. A few times I’ve ordered by the name and ended up with different or extra meat on it. I’m definitely not complaining about getting extra food, but if you want something specific, just spelling out exactly what you want seems to work better.“

“Good food !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“
