About The Bagel Authority

The Bagel Authority is a popular spot for bagel enthusiasts. Their bagel sandwiches, including the highly praised "number 6," are a highlight of the menu, which also features a wide selection of unique flavors like French toast. The restaurant's coffee and drinks are well-regarded, though there have been some issues with delivery orders.

Recent reviews praise the delicious and well-presented "The Local" bagel, served on an everything bagel, which many customers say is exactly what they need to start their day. Visitors enjoy the welcoming and friendly atmosphere, noting that the place has a big city vibe. The staff, including the owner, are friendly and professional, making customers feel at home. The bagels are described as super soft and amazing, often steamed or boiled to perfection. Customers appreciate the affordable prices and the quality of the bagel sandwiches, with some mentioning that the place is a great spot to visit, especially for those seeking good bagels and a friendly environment. However, concerns about cleanliness have been raised, with some reviews mentioning dirty tables, floors, and unclean surfaces, along with burnt or unappetizing coffee. Overall, the restaurant is appreciated for its good bagels, friendly service, and lively atmosphere, but it may benefit from improving cleanliness to enhance the overall experience.

I'm pretty sure it's the owner working in the mornings and he is incredibly rude, inefficient, lacks time management and leaves a lot to be desired in terms of service. I can't even say customer service because there is zero. no greeting just instant complaints and deflections about why your order is going to take twenty minutes. it's also filthy. I can't believe this place is in business.

This place (Spokane) hasn’t been cleaned in over a year. Very unsanitary. Where is the food inspector when you need him 🤢

The bagel was wet, the the establishment was incredibly unsanitary. I requested a refund and left the bagel there. I have never done so at an establishment in my life. I would absolutely never eat anything from here, yes, it was THAT bad as far as cleanliness is concerned.
