Horrible service.. I understand that some of the workers don't want to be there, but you could at least put on a smile or at least get rid of the FU look.. Food is overpriced as well, nothing special about the place. they really need to invest some time into training.. read more

Cute place. Great bagels. Fast service with friendly staff. My only complaint is, I order a bagel with four things on it and it came to over $9. There was a cheaper way to do it with substitutions on a bagel sandwich listed on their menu but the employee wouldn't do it for me. This was a rip off. My friend got a BLT with avocado, which had way more stuff on it, and her bagel sandwich was cheaper. They need a better system for orders like this. read more

Came here for the first time here today. The staff didn't know how to multi task. Many of them moved super slow. I ordered the avocado toast and an iced carmel macchiato and did not like it. Avocado toast was very plain. Could've made that at home... and better. Iced carmel macchiato was not even iced and was very watered down. We tried to sit down to eat and found out every single table was dirty. Staff was nice but will never come here again. Thank you. read more

I had their pastrami bagel! It was heaven. I was really hungry after spending 25 minutes in the near by gym.

The staff where nice and the place was busy but for a $17 bagel I was so disappointed.

Turkey Nightclub sandwich is amazing! Get lots of napkins, you know it's good when it's messy

Food is great, employees' attitudes always ruin it. They are short and seem annoyed no matter how polite you are.

So far my favorite little breakfast bagel stop when I'm out that way! My boyfriend and I visited this place based off the reviews and we both enjoyed it very much! The staff was very friendly and everything came out tasting great! I will definitely be back and refer my family and friends to this place :) read more

This was my first time here. We were around the area for an event and thought we would come here for breakfast. The bagel sandwiches were good and I enjoyed it. I never had a bagel sandwich so I can't say if it was a good price, but I think it is. One main issue I had was.. They have an order here sign on the ceiling by the bagel area. I was new to the place so I didn't look up at the ceiling when I went inside. My eyes went straight to the bagels and up to the cashier area to order (which is a good thing right? You want someone to want your bagels and order ASAP). I didn't see anywhere by the cashier that says order elsewhere so we were standing there for a bit and NO ONE ever told us to order in the front and I know they all saw us standing there because when we went in, there wasn't many people and whoever was there, already ordered. We stood there and other workers would ring up customers and didn't acknowledge us at all. I made eye contact with a worker and he just looked at us and let us stand there lol Eventually I was looking around at the ceiling and saw the order sign. Kind of annoying knowing that the workers saw us and didn't say anything or approach us asking if we needed anything, there were about 5-6 workers, if there was 1-2 workers I would have understood, but out of everyone working no one opened there mouth to direct us (do you want my money or not!! Lol). This might not be their fault because maybe I could have walked in and look straight at the ceiling (which I normally don't do) but maybe they could have had some signage lower saying order here. If they did, my bad I didn't see it at all. I came in hangry af so this really irked me. It made me have a bad first impression, luckily the food was decently good Lol okay I'm done ranting. Overall, I would come back the next time I'm in the area. I think it's worth a try, if you want a good breakfast and if you never had a bagel sandwich. read more

Delicious bagels with a wide selection of ingredients. You can't beat this quality bagel sandwich for $5-$6.

I brought my family for breakfast this past Friday. I immediately noticed most of the employees (mainly all three males with tattoos) had blood shot red eyes along with a strong smell of marijuana. Definitely not family friendly place but food was okay. I would recommend the Bagel Bakery instead (down the street), a lot more professional. read more

Don't get me wrong, the food was delicious but after ordering we waited over 30 minutes for our order. Several people behind us received their order and when we asked about our order they told us they had forgotten about it. Not the best customer service. read more

Went in hoping to get some work done and enjoy breakfast. The wifi was out, and the bagels were not great. Luckily they are heavy on the avocado which saved the day. Coffee is ok. It's quiet inside, but this place is more aesthetically pleasing online than in reality. Skip it if you can! read more

Solid bagel spot, make your own and wide variety of bagels. Nice place for breakfast.

I went to this establishment to order breakfast food, as the restaurant's name implies that it serves breakfast food. I placed my order at precisely 1:30 at which point I was informed by the staff that they stopped serving breakfast food at 1:30, an hour and a half before they close. They've lost a customer permanently. If you like breakfast food there are plenty of other options in the area nearby. First Awakenings is great, Wild Plum is also delicious, and the Victorian Corner is right down the street. read more

Love coming here when I'm in town- best tasting bagels, love the atmosphere. The service is friendly and quick.

Staff is super here. Bagels are excellent have a great chew. 3rd time here it's always a stop when I'm here. It's an obvious favorite of the locals read more

I just want to say that the bagel kitchen is one of my new favorite spots.. farrrrrr surpasses the bagel bakery in my opinion.

Great food, even better people working here! Great customer service! My daughter, my mom, and I came here for breakfast. I had the breakfast burrito with sausage. Who knew you could get a burrito at a bagel place? Anyway, It was sooooo good!! Very filling...ended up sharing with my daughter. Bagels are good and they put a generous portion of cream cheese, which is the way we like it! Give this place a try. You won't even disappointed!!! read more

Terrible breakfast bagels. The Loks was paper thin. My wife's egg was tasteless. Nasty food not to be experienced again for any reason.

Reallyyy not one to leave bad reviews but damn was I disappointed by this place. The space looks great and tries to cater to all the ~~hip vibes~~ and then you look behind the counter and they're putting your bacon and eggs into the microwave. I mean come on. You can't be charging $6 for a bagel sandwich with MICROWAVED bacon. Just no. My wrap was completely inedible and my friend's croissant sandwich was drenched in this foul smelling orange mayo sauce to the point that we had to chuck both. Just awful. read more

Love this place! Came out to Monterey and felt like breakfast before doing the 17 mile drive. The bagel was super yummy. There's different types of sandwiches and you can choose which bagel you want as your sandwich then they make the magic happen behind the counter. I got a sandwich with no ham with chai tea. Their chai tea is perfect. They sadly didn't have boba but it's okay. The staff was super friendly and they helped me pick out what to get because of my dietary restrictions, and I was happy. If you're in the area and want a simple breakfast this place is definitely the place to be. They even have waffle sandwiches! Which is what my boyfriend got and he was very very pleased :) read more

Will likely be going here every time we're in the area. So good! Great selection, very nice staff, food quality is excellent.

My husband went here for the first time to pick us up some bagel sandwiches. I got the Reuben and the person making it was halfway through making it when he stated they were out of sauerkraut. It was the lunch rush and the line was super long, so my husband felt pretty obligated to go ahead and buy the reuben sans sauerkraut out of respect for all the people waiting. A reuben without sauerkraut is just a pastrami and cheese sandwich. Pretty boring. I'd be happy to try this place again because the bagels are very good and perfect for a sandwich (they are tender so you can actually bite through them without everything falling out or shifting terribly). But kind of stunk having a reuben without one of the key ingredients. Dressing was tasty, I had it on the side. read more

Yumm! This place is busy, and has great bagel sandwiches. My turkey club was huge. They were also very nice about substitutions, friendly service despite huge lines. read more

Super yummy sandwiches! Great atmosphere- would definitely recommended. Friendly staff, lots of choices. The veggie sandwich was fantastic, also loved the variety of coffees (Thai ice tea, chai lattes, espresso shots..). read more

This is our go to for breakfast in the mornings when we don't want to cook. We can walk there from our place. Always a crowd pleaser, everyone is always full and happy after one of these bagel sandwiches. Clean and comfortable interior. read more

Cute interior. Great bagels and mochas! I enjoyed the breakfast bagel, while others in my party enjoyed the salmon with cream cheese bagel and the tuna melt bagel sandwich - all were delicious. read more

Beware of this place if you're not attractive! We were clearly in line and it was taking a notable amount of time for anyone behind the counter to notice us. All of a sudden, another girl walks up next to us and gets helped immediately. Yeah I'm good not to go there again. read more

Amazing place, tasty bagel, great veggie options, prompt service, reasonable prices! A must visit on way to 17 mile drive

I debated giving this place one star, but I settled on two because their lox tasted pretty good and fresh and their design/brand aesthetic is pretty nice. Otherwise, stay away. Bagels are nothing like good chewy NY bagels, but I kind of expected that. There were worse offenses: our Meet me in NY bagel was missing the capers and sprouts (I was really looking forward to those capers!), our egg and cheese bagel was prepared by pouring eggs into a plastic dish which was then microwaved, and my Mocha tasted like watered down coffee mixed with Swiss miss. Also, the people preparing, serving, and ringing us up were all over the place and disorganized (4 servers trying to make hot drinks at the same time). Wish we had chosen a different place for breakfast. read more

BEST BAGELS AROUND!!! As a lifelong local, I'm really stoked on what the owners have done with the place. Straightforward menu, fresh ingredients, tasty combos. And super awesome staff- friendly, helpful, no snobbery. You can tell everyone that works here cares about what they do, that it's more than just a day job to them. Really good vibes. Oh, and local acme coffee!! winning on all fronts. Bagel Kitchen has my support, I'm telling everyone i know about 'em. read more

I love this bagel spot tucked in the corner all the way in PG. wish it was closer towards marina maybe, cuz I would be there everyday! Service is fast and bagel sandwiches come out hot and is super filling. Also loved that they serve authentic Thai iced tea as well as their honey green iced tea, so refreshing. The space to dine is open and roomy. Outdoor seating available as well. Great selection of bagel sandwhiches to choose from you will leave happy read more

So great! Came here based on other yelp reviews and was impressed. The good looks and taxes as good as what you'd expect from other pictures and the staff is friendly and helpful. A nice, easy place to grab a quick breakfast bite that I'll definitely return to :) read more

Visiting from out of state, and stopped in this morning for breakfast. Very nice interior and clean as well. Owner was pleasant and patient while we studied the menu. I had the lumberjack on a pizza bagel, and another lumberjack on a bacon cheddar bagel. Delicious ! Washed it down with a nice iced coffee and shot of espresso. Would highly recommend this place to anyone not from the area. (Assuming all locals know about it !) read more

I love their chorizo breakfast bagel on asiago cheddar so much that I have yet to explore the menu any further. This is a good place to get work done, as they share their WiFi code. It is crowded during breakfast hours, as can be expected, but the wait is not long. Delicious bagels and breakfast food!! read more

This is the most legit bagel around! Great friendly service too. i get different custom bagel sandwiches all the time.

Really friendly staff even if it was early in the morning. Cool place and good food got the big sur on whole wheat and green tea latte. read more

Bagel Kitchen - The Big Sur (on whole wheat) - Bagels Near Me - Pacific Grove, California

Im always surprised that it can be so hard to find a great bagel, so thank goodness bagel kitchen has arrived! Its so consistently good, and convenient. Our bagel prayers were finally answered, please don't ever leave us bagel kitchen. read more

Asked if they had thin bagels, and they didn't but they suggested scooping out the insides. Yay! Less carbs! Smoked salmon bagel was delish.
