We love this place! Our closet company and kids stop in weekly! Staff is great, owner is fantastic. Personable and kind and we just love to support this family owned biz! Keep up the great work! We always get breakfast bagel with sausage and the "Kenny" turkey club bagel sandwich. SO GOOD! read more

I came in to try this place out and it blew away my expectations!!! Their bagels are freshly made daily from scratch and that helps give that hidden flavor! I got a Turkey club sandwich and it was so packed that I could only eat half and saved the rest for a few hours later. I bought some take home cream cheeses (garlic, jalapeño and plain) and each one is so flavorful. I told my whole family about this place and loved how friendly the manager was when I came in and he had great students working for him as well that were friendly. We cannot wait to go back! read more

Had to be the worst bagel I have ever ordered. Dry, no flavor with microwaved egg! Then the muffin aka Sam's Club special. Taste like cardboard. Never will i order this garbage again read more

Scott is an awesome small business owner! He's super generous in the community-- always sponsoring kid's events, sports, small schools, musicals, etc. He's super generous and frequently gives away free bagels and muffins. Chicago style bagels- super filling and delicious. My husband and I split a turkey havarti bagel for lunch. Thanks Scott for being a light in the community and working so hard! read more

The bagels are crispy on the outside but soft and airy on the inside. The owner is amazing and let us tour his facility. You can really see the passion! The bagels are made fresh and have a great variety! read more

I'm sorry to say I sent my Mother in Law to B.A.B. I had her order a dozen bagels. I've never ordered a bag (12 bagels) without cream cheese & had it be SO HEAVY! My MIL said "The bag is unusually HEAVY." I didn't realize what she meant until it was MY turn, to retrieve the bagels from the car. Omg! Inside the bag was JUST Bagels? Just like I asked.... Got home, opened the bag and felt the hard-( heavier than I've ever felt) bagel. Cut it, toasted it & as I was waiting for it to toast... my husband and son walked in & wanted one too! 2 toasted with cream cheese and 1 un-toasted with cream cheese. CRUSTY (which is normally good) undercooked-gluey, tasteless bite. All 3 of us tried twice & had to throw it out. Cooked fast, so outside is crunchy but undercooked & gooey inside. Nice service and ambience . read more

Just wanted to give a shoutout to Big Apple Bagel--I stopped in and grabbed a bunch of bagels and one of their sprinkle muffins, and wow... everything was amazing! The bagels were fresh and delicious, and that muffin was seriously the perfect treat. I never finish a whole muffin, but I actually ate this one all the way through! Also, the woman working there was so kind and welcoming--it made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area and craving something fresh and tasty! read more

Ordered a plain bagel with egg cheese and ham. After 15 mins. Of waiting (with one order ahead of me) they tried to give me a plain bagel with cream cheese, I had to return it. They finally got gave me my order and once I got to my destination, I realized they gave me an everything bagel instead of a plain bagel. I can't stand everything bagels so this whole thing went in the trash. I'm very angry that I wasted $11 on absolutely nothing and had to wait almost 20 minutes for the wrong order. I will never be returning here again. I genuinely don't understand how it's that difficult to make someone's order correct and on time. The eggs were microwaved, the bagel was dry, and the ham was so badly microwaved. It was burnt on the edges. All around horrible experience. Zero stars. read more

Great to start your day with their large delicious and amazing bagels. One of the best bagels in town. I definitely recommend them.

The family and I were running errands in Folsom and EDH. We were looking for something quick, tasty, and not a fast food chain. We Yelp'ed and found this place. We came in and were greeted with a friendly hello. The restaurant was very clean and cozy. Nice posters and a comfortable vibe. There were small tables, booths, and even some outdoor seating. I didn't see any high chairs but our two year old sat fine at the table. We let the person know that we had never been there before and they gave us a helpful run down of the menu and what was freshly baked. In addition, there were multiple kinds of cream cheeses. I should have asked if there were non-dairy or vegan options (I guess I'll have to go back ) . Anyhow we tried several things, a ranchero (eggs and jalapeños), ham and cheese, and my egg and cheese. Everything was so tasty. We will be back and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fresh and tasty bite! read more

A great bagel store with superior customer service. Every time I visit this store I am impressed with the positive, friendly and professional staff. The store interior is clean, organized and presents well. The bagels/spreads are excellent and in my opinion are way better than Noah's. If you prefer muffins over bagels, they offer a large selection that looks amazing. read more

Great service, yummy and fresh bagels. The bagels boxes are great for group breakfasts/potlucks and I will continue to support this local gem. read more

This place was delicious. A friend and I went here, and we both agreed that these bagels are top-tier. A fluffy and soft bagel served with some delicious cream cheese that tasted fresh and possibly made in-house. I ordered a tomato basil bagel with scallion cream cheese and bacon. It was delicious, the staff was great, and the drip coffee did not taste bad! The owner created a fantastic ambiance in this place and ensured it was clean. We will be back! read more

This Bagel Shop is such a gem. The Customer Service is always excellent from the Owner Scott and the other Employees whenever I stop in. They have a wonderful variety of bagel, bagel sandwiches, breakfast bagels, and baked goods. I was a Noah's Bagel fan for many years, but after trying Big Apple Bagels, I will continue to support them!! read more

Very good bagels here and many varieties to choose from. Excellent product for the price!

Scott and his staff are amazing. The bagels are great and the muffins are always perfectly cooked. Additionally, he consistently supports local schools and our community in any way that he can. I'm happy to give Scott my business! read more

Love everything about this shop! The owner, Scott, is super friendly and tells you to call ahead a reserve bagels if you can't get there early. The staff is professional, efficient and friendly. We come here twice a month from Pollock Pines jet to get a breakfast BLT! read more

Stopped by for a Swiss cheese capped bagel for the road. Met with a friendly good morning while she was cleaning the front door. Always a great sign!! The bagel was fresh, and a generous size but unfortunately the bagel had no flavor. It was not chewy like a traditional bagel. It was an ring of bread. I wish it was a better experience since it's so conveniently close. read more

Big Apple Bagels - Holey Guacamole - Sandwiches Near Me - El Dorado Hills, California

So good! I've worked across the street from here for almost 3 years and finally decided to walk in to place an order myself (I've had their bagels from other people who had shared them). I was greeted quickly and kindly (by I think the manager) bright and early at 7am on a weekday. I ordered a dozen bagels with two cream cheeses and he gave me a bonus bagel too :) There is a large variety of different bagels from jalapeño cheddar to Asiago and cinnamon raisin to onion chive. My favorites are the savory cheese ones but honestly they were all so good and fresh. The texture inside was fluffy and perfect. To top it off, their homemade cream cheeses are amazing. Strawberry was a hit at my office but my favorite was the veggie! I will definitely be back for more and look forward to eventually trying one of their delicious sounding breakfast and lunch sandwiches! Great service and high quality bagels :) read more

Absolutely LOVE this store and its employees. Employees are super friendly and you can tell they love their job. Quantities and qualities of the food is amazing and tastes delicious! If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. read more

Loved their breakfast bagels! But I was also impressed with the taste and texture of the fresh bagel! BUT, the very best part of this shop? The incredibly great service and efficiency of the owner and staff! Super impressed both times I have been there. It feels like a hometown bagel shop where regulars go and all are treated like valued guests! And boy those bagel sandwiches are yummy1 read more

These bagels were great highly recommend this place they also use a app called to good to go that they told me about where they sell all there left over bagels for the day for super cheap as well as found out that many other places are on this app. Please try them asap you won't be disappointed read more

GLUTEN FREE BAGEL OPTIONS- owners are such a sweetheart! They don't advertise their gluten friendly options but I've been going for years and have never been disappointed! I just wanted to let the gluten free community know about my hidden gem! It's the only bagel place I know of in the area that offers inclusive options! THANK YOU!!! read more

My husband drives all the way to EDH for his favorite haircut spot and this gem is located in the same shopping center. We came here about a year ago just to try and now it's our go to spot EVERYTIME my hubs needs a hair cut. It is a chain, I believe most popular in the Midwest? But it's first I've ever heard of it. They offer your typical bagels, a big choice of cream cheeses, lunch and breakfast sandwiches, along with original and mini muffins (lots of flavors!) My kids are a huge fan of their mini muffins. We've tried all the flavors and they're all good. Double chocolate and sprinkles are the ultimate favorite though! They love their bagels (they toast it for you too!) and they do not skimp on the cream cheese! (Our favorite is tomato basil!) Their breakfast sandwiches are tasty and fully loaded. Customer service is always great and they make things in a very timely manner! The owner is also a really nice guy and when it's not extremely busy, always strikes a conversation with us. Forever fan! Even though it's far, we always have an excuse to come when hubs gets a haircut. read more

I'll start by saying I'm a huge Noah's Bagel fan. Back home, if I carb splurge on a bagel, it's gotta be a Noah's lox bagel so I decided to get a lox bagel from Big Apple to compare. I have to say, even though this is good, it falls short compared to Noah's. Kiddo ordered the Turkey club and husband ordered the Turkey with havarti. We also got a cream cheese chocolate muffin as dessert. There was minimal wait for our food to be ready and we ate outside at the small tables. Total price $34.10 -- kind of expensive In response to owner comment: food was good but lacked punch. Since I would give Noah's 4 stars, and like Noah's more in comparison, then this would default to a lower rating. The 3 stars is also for the value of our meal. read more

Big Apple Bagels - BLT - Sandwiches Near Me - El Dorado Hills, California

One word, "expression" (in a good way) Why I chose this word... who knows. But what I can say is that for some reason Big Apple Bagels makes me feel that way. Personally I think it is the nice variation of quality food (bagles and other delicatessents like muffins etc.) available coupled with the very fair prices (especially considering today's economy). Overall a great place to go anytime during the day. I would recommend mornings as it is a good way to start your day with a happy "expression". Also! They have been around since I was in middle school (enjoyable then) and are still here today while I am in university (still enjoyable today). Stay healthy everybody read more

Big Apple Bagels - asiago bagel with sun dried tomato cream cheese - Sandwiches Near Me - El Dorado Hills, California

Its just a bagel shop can't expect much. A chain business at that. Red flag. Sometimes they are fast, sometimes they aren't. Red flag. I go here out of convenience personally since it's right off green valley. Have for years! Not anymore based solely on the Scottie boy's comment below. I feel bad for this guy. Called in a phone order 7.4.21 EARLY and dude on the phone seemed like it was a chore to take the order. Probably Hop.Scott.ch... Also said "we're really busy it's gonna be a while". Whatever. That's fine. Showed up 10 mins later it was ready idk what was up with that entire interaction. Was almost like dude was TRYING to get us off the phone and order nothing. Scotty Boi apparently can't read my review because i never said it would be ready in 10 mins. Red flag. Tried the double berry muffin. One n done see pic. Muffins are wayyyyy over priced too. Double Red flag. It's a decent place to go I guess I just don't care for the inconsistency or Scottoholic who can't take a sliver of criticism. Red flag. Thanks for justifying WHY it's just a decent place. Love when someone like this guy spews off on a neutral honest comment. There's also a reason this place has staffing issues. Red flag. Had to change my original 3 star review to a 1 star after losing count of the Red flags. Update: 7/9/21 old Scottie boiiii started harassing me through DM. Is this really the place you wanna go people? 7/10/21 he deletes his rude rant haha. It's all been screnshotted and will be sent to corporate. Nice try Scott. read more

Big Apple Bagels is as classic as it gets. The moment I walk in the morning the smell of bagels baking and coffee being brewed, I feel a sense of comfort. The bagels are made fresh daily which makes them more delicious than most other places. They also have a wide variety of options to eat which is also nice when you want to try something new. The Employees are excellent as well. They are always very friendly and easy to work with. Overall Big Apple Bagel is a great place for high quality breakfast foods. read more

10/17/2018: I knew I would be detained at Firestone all day repairing my truck: I plotted grabbing a breakfast sandwich, something giving me a sugar rush, and a cup of coffee from Big Apple transforming me into a nervous Chihuahua-Aaaayeeee! I felt obtaining the morning libation and satiating my low energy truly were the motive operandis for the morning lasting into the late afternoon. The coffee surely performed exceeding well due to the high test dark roast kept me wide awake rather than, feeling lethargic while the breakfast sandwich which I expediently wolfed down didn't even get a chance having a photo taken . . . And that chocolate cheesecake cup cake-I immediately inhaled it like a vacuum cleaner-LOL! The Millennial Dude who served my to-go meal was absolutely the three C's: Cool, cordial, and highly considerate asking me if, I needed more condiments. As Ahnold Schwarzenegger said before, "Ah'll be back!" read more
