I don’t need to be from Seattle to know this is the best bagel in the city. The salt and everything bagels were so dang delicious. Add some spicy scallion schmear to that equation and you’ve got a true breakfast solution.

Bread donuts are interesting but why they call them bagels...

If a place can make a plain bagel that I can eat and enjoy without cream cheese, that's a pretty damn good bagel place in my opinion. The inside of the bagel was perfectly soft and fluffy, with a nice chewy outside crust that did not feel like chewing through leather. Amazing service, too. Added bonus is that their chocolate chip cookies are amazing.

Best bagels in Seattle. No spreads for vegans, sadly. But take 'em home and doctor them by yourself--it's worth it.

This maybe technically the best made bagel I've had. Unfortunately the first one I bit into was the garlic one which has the unmistakable flavor of burnt garlic. Might be harsh on it but $3 a bagel is a lot for something fundamentally flawed.
The everything bagel is excellent crisp without needing it to be toasted.
I don't get what new Yorkers are on about but this apparently is one of the few acceptable bagels to the in the city. But it's not life changing to me.
Interesting enough the chocolate chip cookie is amazing. Maybe the best I have ever had with sea salt and brown butter carmelization most similar to kenjis chocolate chip cookie recipe.

We just moved into the neighborhood and we were so excited for a great bagel place within walking distance but what a disappointment. After paying $20 for three bagels and some cream cheese, there weren’t any compostable utensils or a slicer for us to use to cut the bagels open and when I tried to use one of their metal utensils before going to the arboretum, we were rudely told to leave because somehow it was a health code violation… definitely won’t be back to this odd establishment. Bagels are not worth the price and the staff’s attitude.

Excellent bagels. The perfect combination of chew and fluffiness. The store operations could be improved. It would be faster if one person took and bagged the order and prepared the drinks while another person did the payment. Having one person do everything slows down the line.

Super nice homemade bagels 🥯 Even the day after, the bagel (toasted) was still really good 😋
Scallion cream cheese was also very delicious.

This is hands down the best bagel in Seattle. Personally, I think the perfect bagel should have a chewy texture without being too hard—and even when toasted, the inside should stay soft. That’s exactly what they do here. They don’t toast the bagels or serve bagel sandwiches. They simply bake and sell bagels.
Even around 10 a.m., there’s usually a long line, but thankfully, they still have plenty of bagels available. The shop is tucked away in a residential area, so you might be surprised there’s even a store here. It feels like a beloved local gem—and it truly is. Next time, I’m definitely getting a dozen.
I got garlic, onion, and everything bagels. So far, I’ve only tried the garlic one, and it was incredible. There were bits of minced garlic on the crust, which gave it an amazing flavor—and it’s the kind of bagel you can’t find at most places, so it felt extra special. I imagine the onion one will be even better. The inside is super fluffy, the outside is crisp, and they’re nice and thick—each one is quite big.
Each bagel is $2.85. Totally worth it.

Best bagels I have tried in Seattle. They will not slice, they do not make sandwiches, they won't even give you to go utensils. Come prepared or go home to fix it up.
