Blazing Bagels has been on the list for awhile. I decided to try the Waterford location. It was early on a weekday morning but there were a few other customers coming in and out. The man working here was pleasant and eager to serve. He told me he had been here for many years and I will enjoy the bagels and apologized for cash only. I am not sure why he does not accept credit but luckily I had enough to pay. The other customer agreed the bagels were good. It is a very small shop that does not carry much else, there were the bagels in bins and a list of cream cheese flavors. Everything was moderately priced and I did want to try their lox but it was the priciest sandwich so I went with a dozen bagels and a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. The man microwaved the toppings and added it to the bagel but did not cut the sandwich in two. I was a bit suspicious of the cooking method but the sandwich was fairly decent, but pretty thin. The bagels themselves were pretty tasty. They had the nice shine on the outside and chewy on the inside. I have not had enough bagels in New York to actually compare but very comparable to the ones you might get at the smaller West Bloomfield shops. But the bagels themselves are tiny. Shockingly small. Really you could eat two to be the equivalent of one bagel from yesteryear. I paid $11.50 for a dozen, so not bad, especially since one is listed as $1.25. Would I go back? Probably. I did enjoy the taste, texture, and style of the bagel. Might I try a different location? Yes. There is one in Commerce that appears to be bigger and offer a larger selection. I am not sure if they are related, same company, same recipe...a franchise? They are not listed together online but have the same menu. The prices online are slightly different in Commerce and I am not sure if they take credit cards over there. But the ones here did taste fresh. read more

See all

These are REAL bagels. There is nothing fancy about the store and they don't take credit cards.,.but REAL bagels are hard to find

I love this bagel shop! So far I have had the Vox bagel 3 times. It's delicious. I wish I would have known about this place before!!

Hands down best BAGELS in town! Great service & pure tummy comfort! Fresh, clean and family friendly!! read more

Stopped in today and was pleasantly surprised with the selection of bagels, friendly staff, and delicious Asiago bagel with tomato slice I ordered. I brought salt sticks home for the family and they were gone in minutes. Blazing Bagels is going to be a regular spot for me, so happy I stumbled upon this place. Prices are so reasonable-just make sure you bring cash as this is the only form of payment accepted. read more

Some of the best bagels ever. A small shop but the man behind the counter was friendly and patient with me. It was my first time in the shop and did not rush me. read more

A small place with good prices, but needs counter help as he can't keep up with the business in the morning. Only has seats for 5 so best take out. Place is clean with no atmosphere but that's fine. Locals seem to enjoy. It's worth a visit as the bagels are good! read more

Blazing Bagel - Made right here! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Waterford Township, Michigan

This place has the best tasting bagels I've ever had. They're a bit smaller but thicker than average. I love the way they taste and they're made fresh right there. It's cash only but be aware they don't have any sweet bagel flavors (apple crumble, chocolate chip, etc.). This place smells amazing and has a great value and fast service. read more

This bagel store has finally earned their 5th star. Blazing Bagels is under new ownership now and not owned by Mr. Personality anymore (him being gone is reason for 5th star). The staff is so friendly, bagels are awesome, and they may get a credit card machine soon! read more

I try and support local mom and pop places such as Blazing Bagels. However, my first visit will probably be my last. I had an everything bagel with bacon, egg and cheese. It honestly was pretty bad. The eggs are those cheap, run of the mill, $1.99/dozen eggs that are bland and rubbery. The bacon wasn't crunchy but it was flavorless. The bagel itself was just "meh" not nearly as good as New York Bagel on Woodward. Unfortunately these small places never seem to change so I won't return read more

The Bagels are not as big as those in the grocery store, but have more FLAVOR! And, the price is comparable.

The older man (owner) was very grumpy!! Lacks customer service. The bagels are small. It's CASH ONLY! You would think now a days every establishment takes cards. The only reason I'm giving it two stars, is the taste of the bagel is just ok. New York Bagels in WB are much better! read more

Amazing bahguls! Great customer service and wonderful staff. Highly recommend. Local is the best way to go.

Amazing experience here - great food. We ordered sandwiches, smoothies and coffee. We came in at closer to closing - and the owner was great. Would definitely make this a stop in the future. read more

My boyfriend and I have been here 3 times in the last month, and we absolutely love it! The bagel sandwiches are amazing, and the bagels are just as delicious on their own. The man who runs this place is so kind, he makes genuine conversation with us every time we see him. He deserves a vacation! read more

Guy in there is rude every time I go in. He doesn't deserve our business. Let's his friends cut and has no respect for his regular customers

It's amazing how terrible customer service is here. Grumpy, disrespectful and whiny young woman who cares more about her cell phone then she does her customers and work area. I'd suggest hiring someone who takes pride in what they do and smiles even when you might be having a terrible day. Leave your feelings at the door and bring great customer service and skills instead. Hopefully the owners know their worth read more

The bagels are amazing!!! The owners are very friendly! They have great customer service. I love stopping here on the way to work to pick up a treat for the office ladies! They also have a few giant muffins which are really good. I recently bought their broccoli cheddar soup and it is soooo soo good! Way better than Panera's soup! read more

These are real NY style bagels, not the 'glorified muffin with a hole in the middle you get at the big chain restaurants. Bagels are always fresh, as they close early if they run out (so get there on the earlier side!), and if you get there in the first couple hours, you'll be treated to a warm bagel. Also, be sure to try the flavored cream cheese - it seems a little pricey, but it's homemade and delicious. read more

Cool little bagel shop. Great Bagels

The BEST bagels around. They are always fresh and delicious. Pretty sure everything including cream cheese is made in house. Just FYI, they do not accept credit cards so make sure to bring cash with you. Owners are amazingly nice and friendly. Been here a few times and I've never had a bad experience. We will continue to go back again and again. read more

This place is hard to see off the road but I stopped in for a coffee and bagel and it was great. It's just a small place but the bagels are fresh and the coffee is great as well. The older gentleman (not sure if he is the owner) is very friendly. I've been back twice in the past few weeks. Same great service every time. read more

Owner is not friendly, terrible customer service. Admittedly, I haven't tried the food simply because they don't take credit cards. I came in about a year ago and didn't have cash so they didn't get business from me that day. Walked in today thinking maybe they came to their senses since it's 2021, but still no credit card machine. Owner said "I don't have a credit card machine, haven't had one for years." Only reason they're getting two stars and not one is because the bagels look delicious, but I haven't tried them. But with the attitude I received from the guy, I won't be trying them in the future. read more

We LOVE bagels! We have tried bagels from all over and I would say these are the best! If you love bagels , don't miss this place ! Go on the earlier side for a larger selection. Make sure to try their homemade cream cheese , you can get little side cups to try the different flavors . We find ourselves here , buying a dozen and two tubs of cream cheese most weekends. read more

My wife places an online order for 4 bagels 2 toasted and 2 not toasted and four cream cheeses. I received a confirmation on my phone that our order was placed and would be ready. I arrived 10-15 mins later. When I walked in and told the guy behind the counter I was there to pick up a carry out order, he become rude. He told me I should have called to confirm that the bagels we wanted were available and that since it was the end of the morning he probably didn't have what I wanted. I explained that this was our first time ordering with his shop and that the website didn't say they weren't available. So they had only 4 kinds of bagels left, I agreed to just take 4 of them of a different flavor. When he asked what 2 kinds of cream cheese I wanted I told him we ordered 4 and he disagreed and said we only ordered 2. Not wanting to deal with him further I told him what 2 kinds of cream cheese would go on 2 bagels. He mixed them up and I didn't realize till I get home and the wrong cream was placed on both bagels. I was charged for 2 cream cheeses I did not get. I ordered an Asiago cheese bagel that was $2.00 and since they were out I took a $1.00 everything bagel and not offered a refund. I had to scrap the honey cinnamon cream cheese off my bagel and swap it for the jalapeño that was on my wife's plain bagel. We didn't not enjoy the mix of cinnamon and jalapeño mix of flavors. I was going to give this guy a break for being rude from the second I walked in but since our food was wrecked, and we were over charged The combo was too much. First time customer and last time. read more

nothing worse than looking for some fresh warm bagels and walking in to empty bagel bins with only a few left over from yesterday. Why would you open and not have product ready to sell? this place is a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!!!! from when it used to be California Bagel years ago read more

Friendly owners and bagels are $1 or $5.50 for a half dozen. Was a pretty good bagel too, will be back! read more

Blazing Bagel - Plain bagel - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Waterford Township, Michigan

This is by far the best place to get breakfast in waterford. Awesome bagels and a welcoming friendly staff. We got a dozen bagels and two sausage, egg, and cheese bagel sandwiches which were perfect. Great coffee too. :) read more

My wife and I were looking for a quick place to grab breakfast this morning and were very happy to find this place! We both got the bagel breakfast sandwiches (with bagels fresh out of the oven) and they were delicious. Agree with all of the other comments on how great the service is and would definitely recommend giving it a try. read more

Very friendly employees who serve up freshly baked bagels with several flavored cream cheeses. Try the olive jalapeño cream cheese! There are some cold drinks in a cooler as well as fresh hot coffee. The bagels are great because they make them right there. Come early because they close around lunchtime. read more

Just found this place for the first time last weekend. Their bagels are delicious. Beat my other local options by a mile.(Tim Hortons/Dunkin) Cheese, everything, salt and onion were all very good! read more

Great place for quality food and a good conservation with Stewart. They still make bagels the traditional way, and Stewart always takes care of his customers!!!! GO SUPPORT PLACES LIKE THIS! Will be coming back here for years to come. read more

The best New york style bagels in town. Much better than the chain stores and grocery stores. Worth the trip! They make bagel sandwiches for breakfast and lunch also. read more

This place is tucked away in the corner of an L shaped plaza and it's one you don't want to miss. There are a variety of bagels to choose from as well as a variety of creme cheese. The bagel, toasted, had just the right amount of crisp on the outside yet had a soft and delectable interior. I will definitely be back to support this fine local business establishment. read more

The best bagels and cream cheese I've had in a long time. I was looking for a bagel shop that sells fresh bagels like Bruegger's does and this is the place. I got my friends hooked so that every time we get together I bring some over. read more
