    This business recently opened, and I think may be working out some kinks still but overall it was a good experience. The Sunflower Latte was good, and The Lox was truly delicious. Would definitely order that again. The other bagel pictured is the everything bagel with garlic herb spread and was tasty. Plenty of seating and an attached outdoor patio which is nice. I loved all of the live plants. I wish staff had been a little friendlier, but also understand that it's stressful opening a new shop and getting used to the flow. Glad to have this business in Upland and will definitely try it again.

    Stopped by 42nd Coffee and Bagel recently to check it out. It was pretty busy when I arrived, which is usually a good sign. Service was okay -- nothing particularly memorable, but things moved along. I ordered the Cali Bagel and an Americano. Both were just alright. The bagel was decent but not something I'd personally order again, and the Americano was a bit on the mediocre side for my taste. Some good tunes would liven up the atmosphere and add some extra vibes. Not bad, just not standout. One thing this place definitely has going for it is the location. It's right next to the Metrolink station, which makes it a convenient stop for commuters or anyone looking to grab a quick coffee, bagel, or wrap before catching the train. Overall, I'm giving it 3 stars. It's not a bad stop if you're nearby or commuting, but it didn't leave enough of an impression for me to go out of my way to return.

    Wanted to try this new bagel place for awhile. They didn't disappoint at all. Greeted upon entering. Nice big menu with different sandwiches and coffee drinks. Bagel bins were all stocked and labeled. Ordered The Lox on an Everything bagel with no tomato along with a Cold Brew. Cold Brew was perfect. Ice cold and a really smooth flavor. The Bagel was toasted well. Full of lox pickled onions capers and just the right amount of cream cheese. Presentation was beautiful. Definitely a new place to enjoy for bagels and Cold Brew. Music was chill and experience was really good.

    Nice indoor plants for calm ambiance

    The service was incredible! They happily answered all my questions about safe food allergy practices. I was a little concerned about the bear claws that had almonds on them being above the bagels so they offered to bake a new one fresh. Only took 12 minutes! Makes such a difference to feel cared for and not like a burden. I also ordered a jalapeño egg sandwich with avocado and bacon for my hubs which was incredibly stuffed with ingredients and flavor. The bagels were tender, chewy, and still warm. Check this place out! I plan to try the coffee next time I come.

    The Lox bagel is a work of culinary art: it's extremely delicious and beautiful too! Today I ordered a Lavender latte. I often order lavender lattes at coffee shops, but this is the best one I've had in my recent memory. So yummy! It's so nice to have 42nd Street Bagel back in Upland! The downtown location, right me next to the train tracks is turning in to a favorite breakfast spot for us.

    Such a great little bagel spot! we'll definitely be back! The food was the highlight of our visit. I had an egg sandwich with jalapeño cream cheese, and it was absolutely delicious. The cream cheese had just the right kick without overpowering the sandwich. We also all tried the chicken club with avocado spread, and that was just as good, fresh ingredients, perfectly balanced, and super satisfying. The coffee was the only thing that didn't fully stand out. We ordered espresso drinks, and while they weren't bad, they were a bit on the bland side. A little extra milk and sugar helped bring it together, though. What really made the experience even better was how clean everything was and how carefully our food was prepared. You can tell they take pride in what they do. Overall, a great spot for fresh, tasty sandwiches in a welcoming environment!

    I will expect some smile from staffs, but 8 AM in the morning. I totally understand that. So let's be appreciate people who made the breakfast Got the cold brew and the Lox with onion cheese bagel. The coffee is kind of strong for me, and the bagel is good. I love the sweet from red onion combined with cream cheese, salmon. Also, I like they give a piece of lemon which can add extra favor. I would say I am really satisfied at food. Why I gave four stars but five. The reason may kind of personal because I would like people wear a glove to prepare the food since it open kitchen (kind of) and I can see that . Nothing wrong with the taste, just don't like someone keep touching with bare hand and those foods are raw. Updated: they wear gloves now. They got the last star.

    burnt toasted bagel with thinned out cream cheese and crumbs from some unknown source.
    Marla W.

    I try not to post negative reviews but the food was below subpar. Recently the bagel recipe must have changed. Not chewy NY style- more like Vons bread style. Cream cheese was thinned out and had crumbs from something mixed in. They served us 2 burned toasted bagels. I guess I'll be looking elsewhere.

    The Lox and Cali dream bagel

    I got the Lox bagel and my brother got the Cali dream bagel (added bacon), they were both so delicious! I prefer this location opposed to the one in Claremont due to the foot traffic, this one wasn't overwhelming packed. So nice to see it right at the train station. I also got a teddy graham latte and my brother got the matcha latte, they were both perfect in flavor! The matcha was legit and lightly sweetened, my coffee was the perfect shade of brown! 100/10 would highly recommend and will be coming back after every hike I take
