This was one of the best bagel sandwiches I've ever had! Came on Saturday morning and they were busy, which was a good sign, but took my order and got it out to me quickly. I ordered an everything bagel with plain cream cheese and a bacon and cheddar bagel with egg, bacon, and cream cheese. I will definitely be back!! It was soooo good read more

Good food, service is slow if you go in the morning, very small place and lots of Customers. Been here twice and it is consistently good.

This may just be the bagel holy grail! Fresh toasted bagel, sesame seeds loaded on each side top and bottom, perfectly flavored chipotle cream cheese, served in mammoth proportions. Nice decor, clean. Employees were very busy filling lots of door dash orders. We will definitely return. Thank you! read more

Good bagels, easily accessible location, friendly service. Very limited indoor seating, and a few tables outside, so get probably best if you are getting breakfast to go. We all got various flavors of bagels, and enjoyed all of them. The breakfast sandwiches and muffins looked good, but we didn't try them this time around. read more

Great bagel shop. Weekend rainbow are a treat, but they run out fast. While a nice place for bagels, what really sets them apart is the service. Cesar is awesome; friendly, always has a smile, attentive and fully engaged in your satisfaction with a "Hello" and "Thank you". read more

I love coming here, service is always amazing :) I always get the bacon, egg, and cheese bagel sandwich and it's always so good!

Ordered today through Uber Eats after a hiatus. Delivery was quick and the egg sandwich was still warm. The bagels seemed fresher this time. I switched from sesame to plain. Ordered extra cream cheese and it was a good amount. No complaints this time, hopefully things stay this way, because they really were my favorite. read more

I recently used Bagel 21 for a catering order for teachers at children's school. They were super accommodating with the order with just one days notice. I arrived shortly after they opened and my order was already completed! The variety of bagels and cream cheeses makes it easy for anyone to eat there! Can't wait to go back with my family on the weekend! read more

I completely love how quick and nice the staff is, there bagels remind me on the ones from home. Which is back in NYC, I would definitely recommend here anyone and everyone! The place maybe be small but I love the cafe look with the chairs outside of the store. The pricing is even reasonable! read more

Love this place! I order their pistachio muffins and they are delicious when i warm them. I recommend getting their lox sandwhiches with jalapeño cream cheese and an English muffin. I always order before I head to my 9 to 5. read more

Bagels were cold and stale Out of a lot of options at 10 am Service was slow Order was wrong Total fail.... Will not be coming back or recommending read more

Great little bagel shop! Consistently great bagels. The deluxe lox is my favorite. There are a few small tables inside and outside.

It's freezing outside, and I just finished a treadmill workout. Driving home, I pass this place and swerve in. It's my go to pick-up a toasted bagel and cream cheese spot. No real space inside. Only about 3 tables. Ordering is easy. Choosing a bagel is hard. The rosemary one is delish. Treated myself to Asiago and garlic and herb cream cheese, I demolished it the minute I got home. Picked up some extra sesame for the house as I may not go out again for a while. Are these the donuts I grew up having when I visited my grandparents in New York? No, but they are good. Service is good. Give it a try. read more

Bagels and muffins are delicious. My family goes multiple times a week for breakfast or lunch. Coffee is great, matcha is great. The customer service is excellent. We love love love this place! read more

I'm not sure how this place has a 4 star rating when places like Shug's bagel exists. I originally wanted to dine in, but seating is extremely limited so I ordered to go. Second thing I noticed was the bagels here are huuuge. It can be a plus when it comes to wanting a bagel w/just cream cheese, but as a breakfast sandwich option it's just too much bread. For food I ordered The Hasher on an everything bagel & got an apple juice (total $10.89). I never thought I could eat a bad everything bagel, but this place proved me wrong lol. Idk how it's possible that an unburnt bagel could taste burnt, but somehow it has an overdone taste to it. I tried to go back inside and ask for some jelly to maybe offset the flavor a bit, but not only was I ignored when I walked in by the staff, once I got help the gentleman inside told me it was $1.68 for a SIDE of jelly. For that much I could run into Tom Thumb and get an entire bottle. This is where Bagel Cafe 21 struck out for me. The only good thing about this place is their price point, but that's not enough for me to come back. read more

It was my first time at this bagel shop, and I bought 3 bagels total, (wastes $30) mine specifically was the western subbed with ham and it honestly tasted horrible and had a really weird taste to it..the bagel itself is what threw my taste buds off. It was upsetting for me, considering the reviews and photos look great! My bacon bagel was burnt and i couldn't even finish half of a half of the bagel !! It was sloppy made and got no greeting walking in.. I won't be back here read more

Always happy to be back in this area & 1st stop is always here. I normally can't finish a bagel but these are too good. Lots of flavors, sooo hard to choose. Cesar was amazing & made me a skinny bagel sandwich. I kept the middle slice & it worked out perfectly as a snack later that day. Can't wait to be back! read more

These arent close to New York bagels, but these are still a good choice if you are in the area. These are a notch up from the bagels you can get from Tom thumb or even Central Market. Ive tried their fruity bagels, everything bagels, jalapeno bagels, and the rainbow bagels. All of them are good for their own reasons (the rainbow bagels are enjoyable from the aesthetic). They have wonderful house-made cream cheeses that you should not pass up. Their breakfast bagel sandwiches are constructed in a way that seems like something I could do at home, but it just hits the spot at a reasonable price. This place can take some time to process your breakfast sandwich so don't expect to be in and out. Its also fairly bus yon the weekends, and the closer the closing time, the less bagel varieties they will have available. read more

My favorite new bagel place! They are busy though and run out of bagels so get there early! The bagel was delicious. The cream cheese was also great. The price was very reasonable for the quality and size of the bagel. The employees were all very friendly. There is plenty of parking out front. Definitely recommend! read more

Finally found an awesome bagel place that's comparable to NYC bagels! I've been craving a lox bagel so my fiancé and I decided to check this place out over the weekend. I also ordered an iced chai latte. Next time I would probably ask for extra salmon. The latte was good, it honestly tasted like horchata which I'm not mad about! read more

Bagel Cafe 21 - Lox Ken's Favorite - A BAGEL Cafe 21 FAVORITE - Bagels Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Once in a great while a new place comes along and knocks it out of the park...Bagel Cafe 21 is one such place! I am picky about my bagels having grown up close to the legendary (and now gone) Bagelsteins, I have always had a pretty high bar on bagels. Longtime Dallasites who remeber Bagelsteins will understand that comment. Bagel Cafe 21 is probably the closest to the legend I have found. The bagels are made in small batches, always fresh and served by a helpful and friendly employee. The bagel sandwiches are delicious and they have a HUGE variety of menu items to choose from for such a small place. They handle the busy times well, so don't be dismayed or give up if you see a line. read more

I'm from out of town(Fayetteville, Arkansas( GO HOGS!)) and was up early driving around and this place caught my attention. Got the everything bagel with the lox spread, it is very very good. This will be my go to bagel place when I'm back in town. I'm a sucker for a good bagel(still trying to find a good place) and this satisfies my craving. Can't wait to come back. read more

Bagel Cafe 21 is a solid 4.5 stars so I rounded up to 5. The bagels are the all-stars of this establishment but the flavored coffee and some of the smears could be better. I recommend any of the bagels but the everything bagel is my personal fav. The rainbow bagels are truly an artful creation and delicious to boot. The other bagel flavors are everything you want a bagel to be; chewy and fresh plus they last for days. As for the house smears, the jalapeño is good but I would like the peppers to be mixed in better so you get jalapeño in every bite. However, the bacon and chive is fabulous! read more

This place smells amazing! Customer service is phenomenal. They are very patient and helpful when explaining the menu and helping you choose what to get. read more

Bagel Cafe 21 - Rainbow Bagel w/strawberry cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Love the food from here, always yummy when you get what you ordered. Bummer because I was having people over and ordered egg bagels and I was delivered plain because they were out of egg. It would have been nice for someone to have asked me what I would have liked as a replacement rather than just assuming to give plain. read more

My husband and I really wanted to try this local shop because it's close to our house, but we both left disappointed. The service was friendly but the space was crowded and is better suited for pickup only since there is minimal indoor seating. Although the shop experience wasn't ideal we hoped the bagels would be worth the trip. The cashier mentioned it takes up to two days to make their bagels and I definitely don't believe this because the bagels were tough and flavorless. You can essentially get better bagels at Costco or Central Market. The best part was seeing they use freshly cracked eggs, so I commend them for the efforts. Not sure how it has the highest reviews in the area, but we will not return. read more

Bagel was just ok but there was something wrong with the cream cheese. It was so thick it was more just cheese and no creaminess. It was plopped on one side of the bagel, almost none would transfer to the other side even a fork had a hard time pulling any off the other side. read more

Always delicious and always the kindest employees serving the deliciousness! Kids love the rainbow bagels that are available on the weekends. 10/10 spot. read more

Great Service! Very friendly and patient. These bagels are a FANTASTIC start to the day. The ambiance of the cafe is very home feeling. I immediately felt at home when I walked in. Shout out to all the workers there who worked hard to make my bagels. read more

I would like to consider myself somewhat of a bagel connoisseur - to me it's the perfect breakfast, snack food there is. I'm so glad Bagel Cafe 21 is down the road from me, there bagels are simply delicious! Bagel Cafe 21 & this other bagel place in The Colony called Bagel Fresh Deli look oddly similar from the interior design, to the menu, but hey I'm not complaining they're both great & this one gets two thumbs up from me for being so much closer! So far I've only had the Ken's favorite which is one of the best things I've ever eaten, & their rainbow bagel which was just as good as it is beautiful, but I will say it doesn't add any specific or extra flavor it is purely for aesthetics. They do sell out fast though so probably best to come early on the weekends if you want yourself an Instagram-able bagel. I can definitely see myself becoming a regular here! Staff is very friendly & patient as well. Probably my new go-to bagel place. read more

Was looking forward to this place because of the hype.. instead our whole family dealt with terrible food poisoning. The honey pecan cream cheese tasted a bit funky to begin with but I didn't think much of it until we spent hours on the toilet. When I called to report the matter the manager was dismissive and rude. He told me it couldn't possible be due to anything at their restaurant and all but accused me of lying. I would not have left a negative review if they acknowledged the matter, however, because they are now putting other patrons health at risk by dismissing my claims they leave me no choice. I see other people have dealt with their poor attitudes, so this seems to be a pattern. Avoid at all costs. Saw the managers response, again deflecting any responsibility! Because food borne illnesses can only possible be spread through expired foods and not improperly handled ones? Even my doctor said my symptoms correlate with food poisoning. They're just making their establishment look worse with all the arguing and deflecting, and now everyone on Yelp will see too. Thankfully I'll never be back so this is the last time I'll have to worry about it. read more

Did I drive 45 minutes for bagels? Yes. Do I regret it? Absolutely not. I was a little on the fence looking at the reviews. They seemed a little mixed. Personally I had a great experience. The bagels are a little pricey however they are HUGE. The texture is beyond perfect. Super fresh and has that typical bagel crust but the insides were pillowy soft and amazing. I had the harsher sandwich on egg and it was perfect. I also got a rainbow with blueberry cream cheese. I think my only negative is that the blueberry cream cheese was pretty bland and nothing special. But that's okay the bagels are they real star here. I also got a half dozen of mixed bagels and ate on them for a few days. Even a few days later they were delicious. I really enjoyed the rosemary garlic parm and the rosemary olive oil. They were unique flavors and would make great sandwiches. The French toast bagel was incredible and definitely my favorite out of everything. I will definitely be back. Wish this was a bit closer to me in Fort Worth. read more

Good bagels, eggs were great too, I got the harsher and I enjoyed it, great breakfast spot.

I'm ABSOLUTELY obsessed with this place! Finding good bagels in Dallas is so hard so I was so excited when I found this gem. Their bagel options are absolutely delicious and so fairly priced. Their drinks are also amazing I could not choose which one to get. My go to order is the hasher bagel with an iced matcha latte. You literally can't beat it!! read more

The bagels were amazing here! We had the lonestar and the lox bagel. Both were fresh and flavorful. Loved their selection of bagels, sandwiches, and cream cheeses. The bacon chive cream cheese was so good. Took one star off for the wait which was ~30 mins for 2 sandwiches and a coffee. Definitely ordering ahead next time. read more

Friendly staff, great food. They get pretty busy so it will take some time to order and get your food. Definitely worth the wait!! read more

Bagel Cafe 21 - The Western on Asiago - Bagels Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Sorry, I wasn't impressed with this place at all. The staff was nice enough but the bagels were very underwhelming. There were no blueberries in the blueberry bagel, no raisins in the cinnamon raisin and approximately 5 chips in the chocolate chip. I can maybe understand one bagel having this issue but not all three. I don't have the calories to waste on La Croix bagels. read more
