My mom and I visited Barry's today to get lunch for a group of people helping my sister and her family move. We had no idea how many bagels we wanted or what kinds. The employee waiting on us was super helpful! She was very patient in talking us through our options and efficient at getting the bagels sliced and packed to go. We ended up with a Barry's dozen (14 bagels), a large tub of cream cheese, a bunch of apples, and one small coffee (it was early I needed some caffeine). The total price was $25 which was extremely reasonable. The bagels were absolutely delicious!! My favorite was the sun dried tomato bagel, the asiago cheese came in a close second. I was also a huge fan of the hazelnut coffee. I will remember Barry Bagels for the next time I'm in Ann Arbor. Definitely recommend! read more

I used to go to this place every Sunday for a few years, with good reason. They have an awesome setup. They do bagels and coffee, and also have a full deli. This makes for a wonderful breakfast experience. They do a whole line of breakfast bagel sandwiches, as well as cold pasta salads, deli sandwiches, and anything else you could think of that comes out of a deli. I've had just about everything they make, and it's all amazing. But the breakfast bagels still hold a special place in my heart. Someone from Mc D's must have had breakfast here once, and then tried to copy Barry Bagels' breakfast. These are inspiring bagels stuffed with egg, cheese, and whatever else your heart fancies! And I'd have to give them full stars based on the fact that they were always cheap breakfasts. Even when I ordered two breakfast bagels, two sides, and coffees it was never more than $12. I'd spend more than that at a coney! And that's never good... It's a five minute or less drive out of downtown, and well worth the effort. Give it a shot; you'll be pleasantly surprised and ready to go back to sleep! read more

Terribly slow service. No atmosphere inside, mayne some music would help. Employees truly look like they hate their work. Doesn't look the cleanest either. That all being said, the bagels are awesome and worth the wait. Egg and cheese was fantastic and ole ry of cream cheese served on bagels. This llace has the opportunity to be something special but won't be until they fix the things listed at top read more

You know, there are those kinds of breakfast places that you go with your in-laws, and the ones that you goto every Saturday with a newspaper and your favorite baseball cap. Well, there's one more kind. The reliable place you can get through in 6.5 minutes and end up with a good breakfast sandwich, a scrumptious lemon-poppyseed muffin and coffee that will make your hair stand on end. This is the latter... everytime we need something reliable and quick as we're out the door somewhere, this is our place. Good bfast sandwiches, strong coffee and reliably good bagels and muffins. THAT's what I'm talking about! read more

This is the most amazing bagel place! I usually get a breakfast sandwich (with meat, egg, cheese) here on the everything bagel. If you ask, they can warm it up for you or toast it. You can only get 2 toppings on the breakfast sandwich though, but that is usually enough for me, and it is cheaper than a regular sandwich with meat. I suggest, if you don't want to stand in line, placing an order in advance. They have a pick-up counter that I make good use of. The line tends to get long, and making a bagel sandwich with quality takes a few minutes, so be prepared to wait if you don't place the order within 25-30min in advance online. The people here are always really friendly, too! I admit, I am addicted. I work too close to this place :P read more

These bagels are the best in Ann Arbor. The place has a hard working freindly staff and has been providing great service to Ann Arbor residence my whole life and has never changed! I recommend the sandwiches (I like turkey, a toasted onion roll with jalapeño cream cheese, or a pizza bagel. Also the classic lox with capers and all the fixin's! Yum! read more

Barry Bagels - Turkey and chedder sandwich from Barry's Bagel Ann Arbor! Must I explain this further or does the picture speak for itself?? - Bagels Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

When I used to work on this side of town, I'd eat Barry Bagels once a week, either on my own dime or when co-workers would bring in a bag for everyone. I like their wide selection of bagels, and the coffee is good here, too. The store is always packed with regulars when I come in around 8 a.m., but they always manage to serve everyone pretty quickly. My favorite is to get their "Eggel," which is a bagel with a scrambled egg. I always got mine with cheese, but you can also add sausage. I liked that I could mix and match bagels and cheese varieties and never eat the same sandwich twice. One time I might get the sun-dried tomato bagel with havarti, and another time I'd get the dark pumpernickel bagel with swiss. They're delicious but a little greasy, so have plenty of napkins on hand if you plan to eat one of these. read more

After all of these years it's still a local favorite and it's easy to see why: 1) High quality and wide selection of bagels, soups, and related foods. There are too many types of bagels to list here, but throw two random ingredients that could possibly be related to bagels, add "bagel" to the end of the two ingredients, and they probably have it. 2) Service. The person who takes your order is the person who creates your order is the person who takes your payment. You have a SPOC (single point of contact) for your entire experience, minimizing misunderstanding and optimizing your enjoyment. I'm very happy to see Barry Bagels is still doing well after all of these years. It's an example of a local establishment that has resisted the chains. read more

Awesome service from wonderful people! Whenever I visit the service fast and friendly. I make it point to visit whenever I'm in Ann Arbor.

This is, hands down, my favorite bagel shop. I've been going here since I was a little kid and it's always one of the things I would look forward to when visiting Ann Arbor. Now that I spend most of the year up here, I can eat at Barry's whenever I want and it's just as good every time. It's a nice place inside, always very clean, smells like bagels being cooked, and not too loud. You wait by the counter for someone to take your order, so be prepared for a line. Even if the line goes to the door, it will only take a few minutes and is definitely worth the wait. There is a very wide selection of bagels and just as many choices of toppings. There are flavored cream cheeses, sandwiches, and eggels to name a few (an eggel is a toasted bagel with a grilled egg, cheese and optionally meat). There's really nothing there I wouldn't eat, everything is great. The only complaint I have about the menu is the cost of a sandwich. My sandwich (which has no meat, a little cheese and what should be free toppings) costs close to $8. That is the ONLY complaint I have here though. You can get a dozen bagels (14 to be specific) for the same price. There is a wide selection of juice, milk, soda, coffee and flavored water as well as a good selection of sides like chips, potato salad and macaroni salad. These aren't the thin, tasteless bagels you'll find at Panera, but thick, flavorful bagels that are often right out of the oven. Whether you're in Ann Arbor for the day or if you live here year-round, Barry Bagels is a must. I cannot recommend it highly enough, no other bagel shops can compare. Bring your laptop or iPad and enjoy the free WiFi and the delicious food, you will not be disappointed. read more

I love this place. i've going here since as long as i can remember, and miss it dearly since i've moved away! these bagels are what bagels should be - fat, soft, fresh. mmmmmm. Honestly, I would give my right arm to have a Barry's near me, they are the best. the atmosphere leaves something to be desired, but i actually love that it hasn't changed since i was a kid. This is a must-go! and eat a cranberry bagel for me. read more

I love you Barry Bagels! There is not another place for bagels in the Ann Arbor area that stands close to you. Your Bagels, shmears, and bagel sandwiches are great! I have seen people get excited for the teething bagels and lunch specials. read more

Can you say delicious? I love their turkey sandwich on rye, their bagels, their Cole slaw and their pickles. Highly recommended!

Serving a good variety of quality bagels. We like ours toasted with schmear (cream cheese)! read more

I've been going to Barry's Bagels for years. I argue with New Yorkers that Barry's are as good. i've had bagels in New York City and at Barry 's. Barry's are excellent and just as good as New York City's. They are fresh, great toasted, I love their sandwiches, my favorite is corned beef and Swiss cheese with hot mustard. The staff is always great. And I have not bought a bagel at the grocery store since I discovered Barry's when it first was established as a business. read more

Bagels of your childhood? They don't exist any more. Deal with it. But you can get some good modern bagels (the huge fat kind), salt sticks, bagel or deli sandwiches, muffins, and not-bad coffee or soft drinks here. Better than Panera bagels IMHO, but of course bagel quality is as contentious as politics. Also, Barry's offers a nice area to sit and talk with your friends -- in fact I think maybe they have new chairs. Then you can browse Nicola's Books or the library or T.J.Maxx and have a nice little shopping day. Also there's free wireless access in Barry's. All in all, it's a pleasant little mall: not pretentious, no excessive expectations, just pleasant. read more

I remember when a dozen bagels at Barry's was $3 (.25/ea). Well things have changed, but the bagels are still the best. Whenever I am in Toledo or Ann Arbor it is a must have. I believe they are opening two more locations in the Sandusky area to cater to the Cedar Point crowd. Note, their salt bagels are the best anywhere period. Add some cream cheese and enjoy. read more

This place had the best bagels, great service, and even though it may seem crowded they move fast

Hooooolllllllllyyyyyy fuckkkkkkk this is the slowest establishment on planet earth. This shit has been happening for years covid has not a damn thing to do with it. I waited 33 minutes for two bagels toasted with cream cheese. It's hard to even try to be this slow. Seriously if you think your gonna be able to run here real quick before work or on lunch think again. If you do go here and want to test your patience order at least an hour in advance. Even if you just want a dozen bagels. read more

Good bagels, even better customer service. We get 3-5 dozen bagels delivered from Barry Bagels every Thursday. Two weeks ago, for the first time as far as I know, our order was wrong (one flavor had been swapped for another). I shrugged it off, mistakes happen. Well, it happened again this week, so I called them about it. The guy on the phone was very apologetic, and said the missing bagels would be there in 20 minutes. A delivery guy came exactly 20 minutes later with the bagels... AND a dozen free cookies (the s'mores cookie is AMAZING). Not only that, but they called me a little later to make sure I got the bagels, apologized again, and said they put a note about the mistake on our standing order so it hopefully won't happen again. Above and beyond! read more

The bagels are definitely out of this world :-) and anyone else who hasn't tried them should. And for those liberals/wannabes out there who have to complain about everything there and mine this place is been on the map for years and even though the employees are slow sometimes they get your order very right. Every time I go in there I have never been disappointed. And of course there's always room for improvement but for the most part everything is really awesome compared to Zingerman's down the street where everybody is overpriced. read more

What a great place. Came for the bagels and liked the variety. Staff was very helpful. Intend to return next time I'm in town

I found out about Barry Bagels through Doordash a little while ago, and I've been obsessed ever since. I've ordered delivery for lunch at work a handful of times, and I've been inside the restaurant a few times as well. Everything I've tried has been absolutely delicious. My go to is a turkey pastrami on a pumpernickel bagel, but as I said previously everything I've tried has been amazing. This past Friday, a coworker and I ordered lunch from Barry through Doordash, but with the coronavirus pandemic we're currently going through, Doordash was overwhelmed and the app stopped working. About an hour after I ordered, I didn't have any updates from the app so I called the store. They said my order had been received and made, but they hadn't heard anything Doordash. I tried to contact Doordash through the app, and the customer service number but both were unavailable. About 15 minutes later, I got a call from Laura, the owner of the store and she said she would delivery order to the VA hospital where I work. Shortly after, Laura showed up with my order and I got to enjoy my delicious lunch. This is 100% the best customer service I have ever experienced and I'm not being hyperbolic at all. Thank you Laura for your kindness, words really cannot express how amazing my experience was. You provided me a ray of light on an otherwise crummy day. I created this Yelp account purely to share this wonderful experience. I will be a Barry Bagels customer for life. Thanks again! read more

Barry -- can I call you Barry? First, I love your bagels. They're delicious! Fresh and perfect. Wonderful, friendly staff. It's fun to watch the bagel-making in the back. I have just one simple tweak of a suggestion: When a person takes your order, they should ask for your first name and let you know that they'll call you when it's ready. This signals to the customer that you can have a seat, relax, and that they're done at the counter. Badda bing, badda boom! The system today works like this: 1. A friendly person takes your order, and walks away. 2. You stand there, wondering if you're supposed to pay now (you're not, not yet, you pay when your order is ready). 3. You shuffle forward towards the cash register wondering if you're still in line. 4. You feel a little anxious about whether or not the cluster of people ahead of you are in line or not. 5. Once you arrive at the cash register, you try to make eye contact with a different friendly person. They engage and ask if you've been helped. Kind of? You've been 50% helped? 6. You now shuffle around in a loose cluster by the cash registers waiting 5-10 minutes for your order. Other people step in front of you to be rung up. No big deal, but causes a bit of anxiety your first few visits: Are you in the way? Are they cutting you in line? 7. Finally that first friendly person from #1 reappears with your order, hands you your food, and rings you up. So! Just taking each person's first name and calling them once the order is ready would allow folks to relax, have a seat, and chat with their friends / family for a few minutes as they wait patiently. Thanks for listening! Love those bagels! read more

Barry Bagels is a place I grew up with in Ann Arbor. I've been there so many times when I was younger, it was always an affordable option for good food. Times have changed. Money over. everything seems to be the motto. Prices are quite high, while what you get for your money is very little. I ordered a veggies hummus wrap and received literally half a cup of food in a wrap the size of a smart phone. This place is ridiculous now. Maybe the ownership changed. I could never recommend this place now. read more

So delicious! I love the spinach feta bagel, and just about everyone of the sandwiches. The garlic stick bagel things are amazing too! Must try out the place if you have not yet! read more

Quick and efficient Barry is my go to spot for bagels when the mood hits. Because when the mood hits, it can't be ignored. Blame it on my being from New York. Big selection, always properly staffed, very friendly. What your corner bagel shop should be. My only complaint? I have to remember to tell them to chill on the cream cheese on the rare occasion I get it because they go over the top. read more

Always great service love the food and smile's very clean awesome crew :):) I like the freshness of the food they're always busy but keep up the best the bagels are always fresh too read more

I am in total agreement with the other reviewers. I haven't been to Barry's in a long time and I went this past week...then it hit me again why I stopped going. Unfriendly service from a female employee, tired and dated atmosphere, dirty tables and tasteless sandwiches. The big gross out was reserved when I saw the line manager pop food in his gullet not once but twice! Come on! I am going to contact Environmental Services soon. read more

nice people, friendly cozy atmosphere, has free wifi, very toasty inside which was nice cause cafes are usually freezing. i just wish they added more cream cheese to the toasted bagel but i like insane amounts of cream cheese (from ny) read more

The bagels are too soft and fluffy, the coffee is bitter and dark. And the service is grumpy & incredibly slow. You get precisely the opposite when you visit Zingerman's Roadshow in the SAME parking lot. read more

I didn't really want to like this place. The service as others have mentioned is not spectacular. That being said, they make a fine sandwich. The bagels are really good. Something about this place, if I'm on this side of town with 7 or 8 bucks to blow I don't mind blowing it here. I say the sandwich is a little overpriced but the fare is unique and well executed to the point that I just don't care. I'm going to have to get a couple of onion styx next time I'm there. It probably comes down the fact they use high quality ingredients. I had a wonderful turkey pastrami sandwich on a toasted garlic bagel with hot mustard, mayo, and lettuce. I know others will hate for me this, but its kind of like zingermans light. Everything is toned down including the price but you still get high quality eats. read more

Tasty, quick, best bagels in town! Staff are always friendly. My only complaints are it can get messy from time to time and mid-day parking can be a pain! read more

Tired, dirty, dated 1980s decor and often rude staff. The bagels are good, nothing to write home about, but really the food is okay at best and the atmosphere makes it not worth my time. read more

Terrible, terrible service. It takes 2 minutes to cook a bagel and you end up waiting for 20. Ridiculous.

These bagels remind me of those you can find in Skokie, IL (suburb of Chicago). I always get a Barry's dozen with a mix of onion and egg.

You know it's a good place when there's a long line as soon as you walk in! I was looking for a bagel shop off the highway while driving down I-94 on a Saturday Morning. I got an Everything Bagel with veggie cream cheese. It was delicious! The Cream cheese had nice chucks of Veggies. The coffee was delicious as well. Highly recommend! read more

Only had breakfast here but the selection is great, love the Asiago Cheese bagel...so good! I got the Cafe Mocha which does take a few minutes to make.Plenty of seating room, the inside was much bigger than I expected. The staff seems friendly and helpful, Barry has some good bagels!!! Overall I love this place and will be back. read more
