My favorite place in Fargo. I love trying the amazing flavor and texture combos. Check out changing menu items daily egg bake!, daily greens salad, daily knish (savory puff pastry with roasted veggies), veg soup, and new pastry items. Try the shakshuka (eggs poached in tomato broth) My fav regulars are chicken matzo soup, coffee and black and white cookie. Bagels plain or seeded (yum!) with variety of shmear to choose from (horseradish dill or maple bacon thyme). read more

Came here on an overcast morning, just looking for a quick breakfast. I decided to walk in and check this place out. I was helped quickly and decided on the Lox/Egg. Everything was flavorful and just as I'd hoped. Next time I'm in Fargo, I'll make sure to come by again. read more

Love the bagel and lox. Downtown and busy, but got right in and served quickly. Reminds me of my college days. Will come back again.

Exquisite flavors. I truly regret for not coming here earlier. I ordered Nordic Lamb cause the employee recommended. The balance between meatloaf, pickled onions and lingonberries is beyond imagination. I tried to have the sandwich in the most etiquette way as possible by using fork & knife, but soon gave up and used my hands instead. That tender juicy flavor in the first bite... you won't regret. The sour pickles in the side goes really well with the flavor, no wonder they have pickles in the jar for sale. I devoured the whole sandwich in 2 minutes.... In the end, you don't feel greasy or heavy. It's all perfect experience. Can't say much about Lox + Scrambled Eggs since I didn't try it myself. My friend loves it though. My compliments to the chef. Please recommend a new dish for me next time read more

Bernbaum's - Nordic Lamb $9.99 and Lox + Scrambled Eggs $11.49 - Bagels Near Me - Fargo, North Dakota

Practical: Great bagels. I ordered the "Iceland" bagel plate and it was tasty. Poetic: The Iceland bagel was flavorful in a way unlike most bagels I've encountered. It was reminiscent of Iceland, which conjures up visions of refreshing - though often chilly - summers with smoked fish and micro greens. read more

Bernbaum's - Iceland Bagel Plate - Bagels Near Me - Fargo, North Dakota

Meh. $30 for a brisket sandwich that was 3/4 bread, chocolate pecan pie that was mostly chocolate chips, and a knish that was really good. But not good enough to make up for the lackluster sandwich and pecan-less pie. read more

The food is great, the service is fast, and the coffee is creamy. They have free WiFi, a fun atmosphere, and the staff is super friendly. We got the egg salad, lox, and plain bagel with cream cheese. I would definitely stop again if we're ever in Fargo, ND again! read more

Delicious bacon, egg, and bagel sandwich. Really nice staff as well! Cool downtown vibe for brunch.

The bagel & lox were as good as what I've had in New York. I would highly recommend you try the bagels, lox & cream cheese.

Wonderful Wonderful place! Closest thing to a "Jewish" deli that I used to go to in NYC.

Friendly and helpful staff, clean shop, and great deli environment. I went with the Icelandic bagel plate. It was a great combination of flavors... excellent cream cheese, sweet pickled veggies, salty capers, and rich salmon. All of the compliments to the dish were delicious. Where I was less impressed was with the bagel. A bit too chewy and dull for me. To be fair, I grew up on the east coast, where a quality bagel from New Jersey or New York is hard to beat. Definitely a gem in Fargo, it was packed with locals enjoying lunch. read more

Best egg salad sandwich my husband and I have every had. Get it with the everything Bagel. Love the casual vibe and the service has been good every time. read more

Skip. Stodgy chewy bagels and dried out baked goods. Also owner is rude and unapologetic about prices that are listed incorrectly.

Wow. The vegan egg scramble was the best vegan breakfast I've ever had. I might need to make another trip out to Fargo strictly to come to Bernbaum's. So good! read more

Bernbaums is our go to for brunch. I am hooked on their Egg Bake Of the Day. Their bagels are the best and their are a number of choices for anyone's taste choices. read more

Everything was delicious and the vibe is unique- the wait is what will get you, especially on a busy weekend. Thank goodness for the self serve coffee station. Adorable place! read more

Amazing food every time in Fargo. Highly recommend the tuna melt. I've never had a bad meal

Very tasty food and a cute atmosphere. We got the porridge which was incredible. Lemon cake was also very tasty.

I loved the matzo ball soup but found the cold chicken salad rather lacking in flavor. The service was prompt and courteous. The ambiance was just like a quiet New York delicatessen and I enjoyed it very much! My friend said his pastrami was also a bit bland but we both agreed that the hummus and bagels were incredible! I'd recommend it! read more

Great mid morning/lunch bistro. The vibe is very laid back, which we like. They have things on the menu that you can't get anyplace else in Fargo-Moorhead! read more

Delicious unique stop in Fargo! I had the vegetarian Rueben. It was really good. The aesthetics are unlike any place you will find in North Dakota. You know it's good when people are lined up out the door! read more

What a fun place for Sunday brunch. Lots of good vibes and great deli food. Prices are mid tier. Had the latke and brisket. Presentation was brilliant with horseradish sauce grated carrot and the best latkes I've had in years. Service was deli order style. read more

Quite a hidden gem! I discovered BernBaum's this morning and wasn't disappointed. Got the Iceland bagel with Lox, the best I've had in Fargo! The team is super sweet and you get your food quickly. I wish they played some coffeehouse music as well as it gets pretty quiet in there. Awesome place to grab a coffee & breakfast/brunch. Will definitely go back, highly recommend! read more

This a really great local breakfast and lunch spot. I'm a fan of the Chicken Walnut salad sandwich and the salads look amazing. Good coffee and beer to boot! read more

Such great food, fun experience every time. Service is good, walk up deli order style, downtown atmosphere always busy.

Hipster vibes AF. I feel as if I just walked into a colder, more humid Portland of North Dakota. Only bagel choices are sourdough: seeded or plain. Seeded looks amazing! However, the sourdough bagel is just plain tough. There's no getting around it. Its so chewy, our jaws were tired after eating. Delicious? Yes. The maple bacon thyme cream cheese needs more maple and less thyme. Chevre goat cheese spread was amazing. Staff are friendly. A bit unsatisfied overall, considering we were highly advised to visit here before we got back on the road, but at least our tummies are full of sesame seeds!..? read more

We were driving through town and found this gem through Yelp. I absolutely love bagels, so I knew we would get that. But the menu looked so delicious that we ended up ordering a smorgasbord of food. Definitely a feast for two ppl. I chose all the faves from the lady helping me: lamb meatloaf sandwich, smoked trout cold sandwich, and the classic latke. Feeling FOMO, I also got us the potato knish and the sweet oatmeal...o, and an everything bagel with Lox spread. Lamb: This is the best lamb dish I've had in recent memory if not ever. The meatloaf was flavorful and moist. The bread was buttery and toasted perfectly as to hold up to the sauce. And the pickled onions were a nice touch. My husband does not eat most red meat, but he took a few bites. He might have eaten more, but I devoured it. He says the lingonberry really topped it. 5/5 Smoked trout: Sorta reminded me of a tuna fish sandwich. This was my first time trying this. My husband grew up eating this stuff, and he said it was one of the best he ever had. 4/5 Latke: Best latke ever. What did it for me was the Apple compote. I think they added salted butter or something. I normally eat latke with just apple sauce, and this really elevated it. 5/5 Knish: Average. 2.5/5 Sweet oatmeal: Calling this oatmeal is really understating things. They added wild rice and a touch of creme fraiche along with some homemade matzo granola. I thought the granola was fun, but really loved the combination of (local) grains and the maple syrup. I could eat an entire tub of this stuff, but the baby wanted it, and she fights dirty. 5/5 Bagel: Ok, the lox spread was legit. I could actually see the fish. It was not just pink cream cheese. Unfortunately, the bagel didn't have the right bite and chew. I think there wasn't enough middle to it, and that threw it all off. 3/5 I am so happy to have tried this incredible restaurant. We have been on the road for four days; rarely ordering from restaurants. This was a worth it stop. Note: Seating area closed, bc you know, covid. read more

Best knish we've ever had and we've had many. We got take away, but service was fast and friendly.

This is my absolute favorite place to eat in the morning. Love the matzo ball soup, and the chicken walnut melt is too good. Like, I can't stop ordering it good, even though there's other stuff worth checking out. I have yet to have a meal that wasn't awesome. Staff is super friendly, and the table markers... the table markers will make you laugh, unless you don't laugh at funny things. They also do coffee-type stuff which isn't my thing, but I'm weird like that. It's there, and is probably awesome too. read more

Friendly staff, always busy when I come in the morning, nice breakfast place. Not all food was good but that's just up to tastes, I find it enjoyable. I was ordering here three days in a row (trying out their lox) by the third day I got tired of the taste. Don't have a variety of options but it's a cute breakfast joint. Recommend read more

Outstanding Turkish-inspired chicken salad on focaccia. Bees were terrible outside but easily moved indoors. Love the vintage kids ovens decorating the place. Would have loved to try the apple pie, but at $8/slice just could not justify the calories. read more

Very average at best. Sorry long wait for seating and for food to arrive. Service was extremely slow / took an hour and 10 minutes to get the food we ordered. read more

Amazing food!!! Visited Fargo for a weekend and had to come to this place twice! The bagels were fresh and delicious. The variety of sandwich flavors was soo good. We ordered a couple to share and I loved all of them. The Israeli lamb, the brisket and the chicken walnut salad melt were the three we had and loved. The horseradish potato salad had enough horseradish for flavoring but not to be overpowering. The beet hummus and baba ganoush were my FAVORITE! read more

Bernbaum's - Hummus platter - Bagels Near Me - Fargo, North Dakota

I usually like going here to grab a lavender latte or meet friends here for lunch. I like a lot of the menu and atmosphere although the wait time for food can be long. Some delicious options. However, I did have a negative experience at one of the special seasonal evening dinners they had. Never got some of the courses and waited a long time for each. Got dessert before the main course. Way overpriced and disappointing evening and service, yet charged a mandatory tip ahead of time. Turned me off from going there for a long time but I have since been back for lunch. read more

Five stars again! Bernbaums never misses. I was unable to get over to Fargo during covid so I was very excited to come back after getting vaccinated and eat at one of my favorite places in town! And it just doesn't disappoint. I adore the potato knish and the mustard absolutely makes the dish! I tried the strawberry frangipane tart - so good! Glad to see bernbaums is as amazing as ever. read more

Food and service were great. Bagels are sourdough and make a prefect breakfast sandwich
