The tuna melt was perfect. I as a little on the fish side but I'd order again. Service was what it could be being there seems to be a school nearby and is definitely a popular spot for kids. It's everything you'd expect from a good local cafe that serves pastry's bagels and sandwiches. Not enough space to sit if you're there during the lunch rush. Only complaint would be timing. If you're in a hurry know that it's most likely packed for school lunch M-F from 12-1. I knew better but the ratings were high enough for me to wait and partake. I'd sit in the lunch rush again if I had time. Sandwich and service were well worth the wait. read more

My husband stops by here and says the staff is always super friendly. Muffins are delicious! We recently tried the banh mi. Also good, loved the bread they used. Small shop and there is always a crowd. read more

I've had this place once and I literally can't stop thinking about going back. I was in the area and was persuaded by the five stars, and it did not disappoint. They have a wide selection of bagel sandwich options and bagels to choose from. All of them are made right in front of you and the staff is super kind. Additionally, the sandwiches are well- served and super filling. I got a club on a garlic bagel and it was a 10/10. The garlic bagel isn't overwhelming and adds the perfect touch to the sandwich. It's a small place with a couple of tables and chair for seating. I'd say it's definitely more of a grab and go place, perfect for breakfast or lunch!! read more

What a pleasant surprise! We've been passing by this place for some time and during our morning walk we decided to finally try this place and so glad we did! The space is so clean and well equipped. The staff were so kind and welcoming and provided us their favorite recommendations based on our interests. We ended up getting a breakfast croissant sandwich and a pork chop banh mi with an iced Vietnamese coffee. Everything was delicious! I'm so glad all of my favorites are in one place and this will definitely be a staple of ours. read more

Bagel Cafe - Turkey sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Pleasanton, California

My 4th time here. The bánh mì was perfection again--buttery baguette - crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, fresh crisp veggies, and just the right kick. THE BEST BAHN MI in the East bay hands down. Paired it with an iced Vietnamese coffee that was bold, sweet, and dangerously addictive. Service is top notch and just as lovely as the food is delicious. I cannot recommend this spot enough. Skip Starbucks. Skip Jersey Mikes. Support this wonderful small-business instead. read more

The best bagel shop in the entire Tri-Valley. The best service, the best ingredients, and the best flavors. I honestly feel like I could live to 100 if I get to eat your food every day. Starting my morning with your delicious croissant sausage egg sandwich makes "working hard for a better life" feel so real and achievable. Every time I walk in and hear "Welcome back! What can I get started for you? No rush, take your time," those simple, caring little phrases fill my whole day with kindness and good energy. Thank you for being such a wonderful presence in our community. read more

Came for a quick bite with my dad. The sweetest lady greeted us with a smile and "hon" and made us the best California Club to share. I was just expecting a good sandwich based on reviews, but it was fantastic and made with such love and care! She seasoned the avocados, loaded it with veggies, and the bread was perfectly toasted. Even made the bacon extra crispy per my request and went light of mayo. My dad enjoyed each bite and said "now that's a good sandwich". We'll be back whenever we're out this way. Thank you! read more

Bagel Cafe - Oops pork banh mi, half way point! - Sandwiches Near Me - Pleasanton, California

I love this place! It's a family run business run by two sisters and their family. Amazingly they remember almost everyone's name when they come in if you're a regular customer; they are so friendly and genuine but the food is great on top of that. Bagels are delicious and their sandwiches are outstanding, especially their Banh Mi I've been taking my youngest son there for years every weekend for breakfast and he loves their food too! read more

Wow, so this is long overdue but Bagel Cafe has some of the BEST bagels I have ever had! I am a bagel freak and always on the hunt for a good one and this is definitely at the top of my list right now. My sister and I stopped by on our way to the bay during Memorial Day weekend and I am so glad she found Bagel Cafe. It's located off Main St in a plaza that is easy to miss if you're not from the area. We had to loop back but there's plenty of parking which I'm always a fan of. The inside of the cafe is clean and spacious. There are many options on the menu to pick from but I always stick to my go to unless I'm really in the mood to try something new. The service was wonderful, the owner was there and it's definitely true what they say - she always has a smile on her face! Our bagels were brought out rather quickly and after we tried our first bites, my sister and I were so content and happy. I say this often but I will definitely be back when I'm in the area! read more

Bagel Cafe is an Isla Vista classic that never disappoints! I have been. couple times and am surprised that I have yet to leave a review! I try something different each time I go, but I would have to say one of my go-to orders is a toasted garlic bagel with chipotle smear! SO GOOD! Service is super quick and the people working are always so helpful. The Emma and a classic BLT of pesto bagel always hit the spot too. A chill, laid back spot to hit the get your day started or for an afternoon pick me up! read more

It's always a pleasure to support and dine at Bagel Cafe. The ladies that work here are always so friendly and hospitable. The sandwiches are HUGE, so my Nana and I shared it. We ordered a turkey sandwich with all the fixins' on a croissant. The turkey and proteins are so fresh. The croissant is so light and just perfect. I think it is baked fresh daily. We enjoyed our turkey sandwich. Also available is a big assortment of bottled sodas, juices and teas. This place is frequented by locals and the ladies always remember their regulars by name. I will definitely return. I love the food, freshness and hospitality. read more

My sister's favorite bagel spot! She's become quite a regular and I tag along with her a few times :) I've really enjoyed each experience going to this bagel cafe. I typically get the salami sandwich on an everything bagel - they definitely give you the most in these bagels!! They make sure to stack it so you're really getting your fill. I think the bagel is soft on the inside and a little crispy on the outside which is perfect. All of the ingredients flow really well together, as the ratio is great, and I love eating these bagels every time. The customer service is absolutely so wonderful and sweet! So friendly every time we go, and they are just so fun to talk to! I always feel welcomed right when I put my first step through the door. They have a few seats and the interior is comfortable. Parking is not an issue as well, since they have a lot. Definitely will be coming back! Excited to try even more bagels :) read more

Not even surprised that this place is 5/5 on yelp because IT LIVES UP TO THE HYPE!! Menu is endless with many pastries, sandwiches, and fresh food! My personal favorite is the croissant sandwich with egg, provolone, and sausage. All pastries there are homemade and taste amazing! The people who work here are super sweet and make the environment very welcoming. If you are in the area, this is a MUST TRY! read more

I have been coming into this amazing shop every day for the last two weeks sometimes TWICE A DAY! Everything is so fresh and full of flavor not to mention filling. I am so spoiled to come into this shop to be greeted by the sisters who say my name with the biggest smiles on their faces. I love all the freshly baked sweet treats, especially the cherry sticks and the beautifully baked banana walnut muffins. My family is big fans of their special sandwiches and teas. read more

Super friendly service, nothing like a smiling face to start off your day. Real bagels, croissants, muffins, cookies, fruit turnovers and other pastries made fresh every day. Their buttery croissants are out of this world. They also have a good assortment of bagels. My favorite is their jalapeno bagel (has chopped up jalapenos inside the dough). They also have huge assortment of sandwiches (chicken salad, Bahn Mi, salami, ham, turkey) and many other varieties. Also have fruit smoothies, milk shakes, soda and have a wide selection of coffee and tea drinks. read more

Everything is awesome from the sandwiches to the coffees. Forget the chain stores with the drones working behind the counter. This is a family owned/operated business with a lot of good, fresh food. read more

The fact that they have an egg bagel when Noah's bagel discontinued it has changed my life! This place seems to be the closest to an egg bagel I can find that was similar to Noah's. The inside is always super clean and offers many drinks and breakfast options! You can get a Thai iced tea, boba, coffee, milk, juice, or energy drinks. For food you can get a bagel of any sort toasted or not with a lot of options. You can also build your own breakfast sandwich. The staff is super friendly and are always fairly quick. Bonus they are 4 stops down from a Starbucks if you're a fan. read more

I absolutely love this place. There's nothing on the menu to complain about. Everything is so good. The ladies there are fantastic human beings that truly care about their customers and the community! When you visit often enough they'll even remember your name and order! I wanted to retake photos of their menu because the ones currently on Yelp are difficult to see. When you visit this place, you must get your sandwich with their freshly baked croissant, which is huge! read more

We eat here a lot and they always make my food amazingly! They are fast and a great place for lunch!

My favorite bagel spot :')) I always get the lox bagel on either a jalapeño cheese or everything bagel, and it's perfect everytime. There's not a lotttt of lox, but everything else is 10/10. The bagel itself is dense and soft on the inside, the lox has a nice smoky flavor and isn't too salty, and there's a good cream cheese ratio too! All of the veggies are really fresh and crisp, and the onions are sweet The customer service is absolutely amazing and the ladies are so friendly and welcoming to everyone :') Parking can be pretty difficult because it's in a small plaza that's almost always packed, but 10/10 would recommend ! read more

This was my first time coming to Bagel Cafe and I will absolutely be visiting again. We had croissant breakfast sandwiches and the portions are GENEROUS. The service is amazing, super friendly and easy to customize orders. Food was delicious and I was so very satisfied after. It was prepared really fast as well. The shop is small, but there is plenty of space to sit and eat in. But really, I can't overstate enough how friendly the service is. Truly, I would come back time and time again to support this wonderful local business. read more

STALE breads. This place could be 5 stars if they just changed out their breads! I ordered two sandwiches in the last two months. One sandwich was on a bagel, and the other was on a sourdough roll. Both breads were stale, dry and tasteless, which ruined the sandwiches. Other than that, customer service is wonderful. The ladies behind the counter are so friendly and cheerful. The contents of the sandwiches were flavorful, including the pork banh mi. Generous servings. Just needs fresh bread. read more

I had to bring my son to a track meet at Amador Valley High School early on a Saturday morning. I found that this place is just a block from the school and they open at 8 AM on Saturdays. Perfect. I picked a bagel sandwich for breakfast and I got change back from my $5. The two young ladies behind the counter were friendly and efficient. I paid and got my sandwich in about 2 minutes. I expected a bagel from Costco or US Foods or where ever the other places get their bagels. But NO! This was a FRESH bagel and it was delicious. The rest of the sandwich was fine, but the bagel made it spectacular. I see in other reviews that I need to try their croissants too. (I'll check them out next time.) read more
