Came by for a pickup order the other morning, and everything was great as usual. The employee was super nice and was able to give me a tray and straws for my drinks, and it was a very quick in and out. I really appreciate that they wrote on the lids of the two drinks that looked the same, so I knew which was which. I also got a bagel and crumb cake - both were delicious! Sometimes parking here can be a little rough, but I came by at about 730 on a weekday and was able to park in their attached lot with no issues. read more

Picked up some delicious bagels from Blondies! The bagels are a little on the smaller side, but they more than make up for it with flavor and super generous cream cheese. You can tell they don't skimp on quality -- everything tastes fresh and well made. I got the pork roll, egg & cheese and it was so satisfying. Perfectly cooked and well-balanced, with just the right amount of melty cheese and crispy pork roll. Friendly service, quick turnaround, and a cozy little setup with multiple sit-in tables inside and out. read more

The sandwiches are always good and reasonably priced! The service is excellent. A strong thumbs up.

Very disappointing. I understand take-out orders are for that but to walk in-girl standing at register-grab water and she refuses to sell the water but instructs me to "get in line!" No one in front of me, behind me, and it was a 10 sec ring! Lost me as a customer. read more

The bagels have definitely gotten expensive over the years, but the staff is so kind and the food is fantastic, so you can't go wrong with blondes! I'm not the biggest fan of their coffee, but I think that's personal preference as many people I know love it. Seating can fill up, especially on weekdays, but it's a great spot to have a meeting or sit and work a bit. read more

We came here for a quick breakfast stop and we were not disappointed! It was busy when we walked in but we did not have to wait long to put our order in! They also do pick up orders! I ordered an egg and cheese on a wheat bagel and my husband got a bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel as well! We enjoyed our breakfast sandwiches! I got tea and they have different flavors to choose from! The bathrooms are clean and they have tables inside and outside. There is parking out front and parking in the back! This is truly such a cute breakfast spot! read more

Located conveniently on a Daniel Island, Blondies Bagels provides consistent quality in both food and service. The bagels are delicious as well as the sandwiches they prepare. The coffee is always on point. There is plenty of seating inside and out and it is always gathering the locals from Daniel Island. A nice vibe. Even serves ice cream in the summer. Definitely recommend. read more

Great little cafe with delicious bagels and decent coffee. Both my husband and I enjoyed our meat, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich (Asiago/sausage/egg/cheddar and everything/bacon/egg/pepper Jack). Basic but good, and we may have been able to add lettuce, tomato or a sauce but I wasn't looking as it was the first time there. Decent amount of seating inside, and saw some outside spots as well. It did become busy while we were there, but they seemed to keep up. read more

My favorite hometown bagel shop! Always tasty and quick. The portions can sometimes differ based on the day but the flavors are always excellent! Love it! read more

Blondies Bagels & Cafe - Meat, Egg & Cheese Bagel Sandwich Bagel With Flavored Cream Cheese (Everything w/ Scallion) Latte - Iced (One Size) - Bagels Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

The ladies inside were very nice and the place was relatively busy. But as soon as I opened my chicken quesadilla, I clearly saw hair. I also got a cream cheese bagel that wasn't bad but nothing crazy. Despite their being hair in my food, I would consider trying this café again. read more

Online ordering for the win- this place gets SO busy on the weekends but their bagels are great. Super fresh and so many options. Online ordering allows you to customize a TON - light toasted, no onions, garlic bagel with poppy as backup option, etc etc. Counter service is good- polite and fast. Seating is utilitarian- not super comfy but it works in a pinch. Water cups are mouthwash sized Dixie cups - that's annoying. They are open in the summer for ice cream which is lovely and the patio is great for messy eaters covering the floor in sprinkles and gobs of ice cream. Go here for breakfast and enjoy the smoked salmon sandwich on a toasted bagel- yum! read more

I don't recommend the scrambled eggs. I ordered scrambled eggs for my toddler. They look and taste horrible. Our doggie wouldn't even eat them. I also got a cinnamon roll. It was large but cold. Just basic. The cinnamon sugar bagel was tasty and they gave lots of cream cheese. My husband got an everything bagel breakfast sandwich and he says it was too salty. He never complains about salt content so it must have been pretty salty. He also ordered American cheese on his sandwich and was given cream cheese. Next time, I would just stick with the cinnamon sugar bagel, lightly toasted. read more

The Asiago bagel with horseradish bacon cream cheese was quite passable. Not sure if it will be up to the standards of all the DI New Yorkers but I enjoyed it. There is a great aesthetic here and I got some studying done. The service was solid too. The staff actually recommended the Asiago bagel to me. read more

I didn't get to order because the cashier rudely ignored me because I didn't realize that others were in line. I have never experienced this on DI and felt so embarrassed. read more

This is my tenth review of this place! Don't worry, last couple of times, I gave them five stars. To celebrate the fall season, I wanted to try the pumpkin cream cheese and leaving a review for this only. The pumpkin cream cheese went really well with the cinnamon bagel. However, it was fairly runny. The consistency was not thick at all. The flavor was great, but I was disappointed in the fact that the cream cheese was melting all over my hands. Sadly, I won't be there, but I hope this gets fixed for next fall! read more

I love bagels, and I really want to love Blondies but I've been a few times now and it just keeps missing the mark for me. I always get a cinnamon raisin bagel as I don't like savory bagels and without fail it tastes like onion/everything. Not sure if it's from toasting in same toaster or from cooking? Last visit I ordered half a dozen sliced bagels ( which costs a small amount extra) and they weren't sliced. Just small things that keep me from wanting this to be a regular stop for me. I wouldn't recommend their espresso drinks, but the drip coffee is nice and I do love the vibes! read more

Wow! What a wonderful cafe with a great selection of savory and sweet food, and beverages. A thick slice of their chocolate chip zucchini bread is simply--good. Their bathroom was clean for such a busy cafe. Would 100% be returning on a regular basis. read more

Put "bagels" in your name + I'm there. Snagged a cold brew, a hot seasonal PB latte + a bagel with schmear. The cold brew was good, exactly what it is. The workers gave me a heads up that the latte is quite sweet, so I snagged a small because I had to try it. I did not have a problem with the sweetness level, and I am glad that they told me it was sweet, but the issue I had wasn't the sweetness, it was the chunks of peanut butter. If it's a beverage that is not smoothie or bubble tea... should not have any chunks in it. Bagel was okay, exactly what it sounds like. Nothing that made it stand out, but not bad either. read more

Ordered a dozen bagels this morning. I wanted one left out of the dozen for myself. Gentkeman behind the counter kept telling me he could not do that. I had to order and be charged for a separate bagel for myself. Odd right! I keep trying to explain what I wanted. Gentleman raised his voice and was rude! Bagels weren't even that great! read more

Their bagel breakfast sandwiches were very nice and served Evan quickly in a crowded store.

Best bagel in Charleston. A family owned shop with a friendly community atmosphere. I make special trips from Richmond Va for the Lox sandwich on a salt bagel. read more

Visited after services this morning. Have been here dozens of times and this was a bit disappointing. The service was efficient and pleasant. Coffee was very good. Our breakfast sandwiches were lackluster and bland. Ordered an egg with pepper jack cheese bagel, egg with cheddar cheese on sourdough and cheese and meat bagel. For the two egg/cheese, the cheese was nearly nonexistent. When the sandwiches were opened, there was little evidence of cheese and I could imagine the slice would have been a thin sandwich slice. For the other, the turkey sausage was the size of a silver dollar. When placed in a bagel sandwich, it was quite surprising. As a result, there was very little flavor to any of the 3. This is not being picky. I know the delicious sandwiches I have had here through the years. None of these measured up. Would far rather pay a bit more and have a flavorful sandwich. read more

Great spot. Quick service. Got two bagels with cream cheese and 2 coffees for a little less than $25. Ambiance is great with a clean space and plenty of seating. Came around 8:30am on a Sunday and no line! Street parking out front but there's also a small parking lot behind the building. read more

Really cute and accessible bagel shop. Great coffee and genius portions. The bagels and large and they give you loads of cream cheese on them. Service is ok. Not overly friendly but not bad or rude. Worth a monthly pick up or if you're visiting DI for sure go! read more

My all-time favorite place to have a bagel in Charleston! Expect long lines on the weekends but the bagels are worth the wait! Blondie's also offers a selection of yummy pastries and a decent variety of coffees & beverages. Items are reasonably priced. If only the lunch items were available on the weekends too! read more

Blondies Bagels & Cafe - Toasted onion bagel with sausage and cheddar - Bagels Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

I had some work to do and time to kill and found myself at a local coffee shop. The restaurant was clean and inviting. Staff was helpful. I started with my usual boring black coffee, solid. There were lots of breakfast sandwich options (almost anything). I waited for lunch. The counter attendant suggested the chicken salad and it was delicious (no fruit in it - yah). I built my own sandwich on sourdough. Perfect light choice after 3 days of over indulging. Service fast. Wi-Fi strong. Would have liked to see a few more lunch options (if I had to pick one thing to improve). read more

Blondies Bagels & Cafe - Chicken salad on sourdough bread! - Bagels Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Yummy breakfast items, very friendly and fast service, very cute vibes. This place was pretty packed on a Wednesday morning so it must be very popular. There's lots of seating inside and a little bit outside. It's well lit inside and just cute like a typical cafe. They have lots of bagels and homemade cream cheeses, but also a whole assortment of baked goodies in the window and lunch sandwich/salad/wrap options. I got the September special- the sourdough French toast with a side of bacon and cinnamon crunch caramel latte (iced). The bacon is thin and crispy, just how I like it. Both were good although nothing fantastic or mind blowing. My friends got a toasted everything bagel with egg, white cheddar, and bacon, a toasted everything bagel with veggie cream cheese, and a slice of crumb cake. Everything was very yummy. The cashier was really nice and friendly. The food came out very quickly. They also have bags in case you don't finish all your food and want to take it home. Overall, good service, food, and vibes! I'd come back for a good bagel and cream cheese. read more

The bagels are consistently "okay". They do tend to burn them or barely toast them, just properly toasted seems to elude them. One thing you can always count on without question is being treated rudely and as if you are an inconvenience. Not sure if the person doing the hiring is only looking for this skill to make sure every customer is given this special treatment. Every time this seems to fade in my mind I find myself giving them another try only to have all the memories come flooding back why I should never give these people a dime. read more

Blondies is a staple on Daniel Island. The interior is comfy and there's a great shaded courtyard-esque area for outdoor seating too. The employees are kind and helpful. The lattes have always been delicious. The lunch menu is tasty but I'd love to see a few more options for sides than just coleslaw. Their March latte special is a must try! read more

Stopped by here for iced coffees and breakfast sandwiches after a hot visit to Daniel Island Park last Sunday morning. Glad we showed up when we did because the line was out the door as we were leaving. I barely noticed how busy it got because people were cruising through the line. We received our iced coffees within just a couple minutes and then our three bagels only a couple minutes later. The iced coffees were strong and yummy and the bagels hit the spot. The employees were friendly despite the rush they were rushing through. They also had a little water station where I was able to get us waters to rehydrate. Will return! read more

Very reasonably priced and soo good! I got the egg salad wrap and chicken salad wrap. Both were amazing. I don't eat breakfast foods so I was able to get it at 8 am , they were very accommodating! Very cute hang out / study spot and dog friendly read more

Their bagels are okay . Not as good as Ruby's but I live on the island . Problem is they have absolutely stupid hours ! Closed at noon on Sunday ? Not cool all other bagels stores are open until 2:00 . I can't go back but looking forward to the new bagel shop opening on Daniel Island soon ! read more

I held a weekly book study a Blondies throughout the summer and the service/quality of product was consistent every time. The lines can be extraordinarily long, but I think this place is worth it! I've ordered sandwiches, lattes, iced coffee, bagels, and each item I'd order again. Blondies gives a family friendly environment while also providing a place to relax on your own. read more

Blondies Bagels & Cafe - Wheat bagel with egg, cheddar cheese, and ham - Bagels Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

There are at least five places to get a cup of coffee on Daniel Island: Blondie's, The DIME, Starbucks, Refuel, and Circle K. Each coffee shop and/or gas station, has its own set of plusses and minuses. But from most of the coffee drinkers I speak to, Blondie's food and baked good and things-other-than-coffee stuff tops the list, but its coffee is not the best. That said, for On-Daniel-Island coffee, Blondie's is probably the best nexus between hours open, location, and companion food. That said, if you read the reviews, there can be a bit of a service problem here. The staff is generally well meaning, but it gets busy. If you're in a rush, or are easily irritated by standing around waiting for coffee, do yourself a favor and use their online ordering system. Take a deep breath, enjoy your life and gain some perspective about the kind of life you lead where you get to go to coffee at a place like Blondie's, and then, when you are done reflecting, your coffee will be there waiting on you, and you will have saved yourself from having to stand-in line for what can be a rather long time sometimes. They are very dog friendly. The courtyard usually has a dog bowl for water in it, and if it's not there or empty, just take it inside and get it filled up. That whole courtyard patio area they have is quite lovely and open year around. If you're strictly looking for the *best coffee you can get* and are not looking for food to go with it, you can probably do better going to the DIME. If you're in a rush and want decent coffee quickly, drive across the street over to the Circle K. Yes, it's a gas station, but a lot of high end coffee drinkers here on DI swear it's the best coffee on the Island. That said, if you're looking for a place to maybe have a cup of coffee with a friend, and maybe split a muffin or something, you can't go wrong with Blondie's. Just, for the love of god spare yourself from standing in line and use their website. read more
