If you are craving a good bagel, you should go and check out blue sky bagels! I was having a get together with friends in the morning and I got a dozen bagels. Felt like I needed a little more to start the morning so we got a couple of breakfast sandwiches, which gave me the fuel I needed to start the day. They did a surprisingly great job on the latte and mocha as well. The staff was so nice and made my latte just how I like it. All of my friends were very happy with the bagel options. I definitely recommend getting the honey walnut cream cheese and trying it out. I've been having it every day since because it's so delicious. Plenty of places to sit down and eat as well or can grab and go if you need to. I will definitely think the blue sky the next time I need a good morning treat for a group of people. read more

Great service and good chew on the bagel. Typical microwave eggs and bacon. But great service and kind!!

Everything was really good except two things. One, I ordered a toasted bagel with extra butter. It dripped all inside everything inside the bag and my car when I pulled it out. It had a great amount of butter, but needed double wrappers. Second, I ordered two containers of SALMON CREAM CHEESE (Lox). They were placed at the bottom of the bag and stayed cold. When I got home I unpacked and found they were PLAIN. These were for my wife and I went out of my way to Blue Sky for the Salmon cream cheese. I got an email with the receipt and it showed plain. I know I mentioned both salmon and lox while there. This is quite frustrating coming from Star. read more

Whenever we are here in Boise, Blue Sky is always a must stop! We discovered this place a few years ago when we came to visit family who had recently moved here. We were staying at an Airbnb nearby and stopped to pick up bagels one morning. I was back in Boise recently and told the family that I was bringing breakfast! Stopped at the Meridian location and ordered the bakers dozen along with four different flavored cream cheeses. I love their personalized service but was sad that by the time I came all the sesame bagels were gone! No worries because it really doesn't matter which ones you get, they all are perfectly made and cooked and offer you that great tug when you bite into the bagel. Their cream cheeses are fresh and flavorful and I had gotten the bacon/scallion this time around and there was nothing left! Everyone who had it loved it! I also ordered a cold brew coffee, without ice...which did throw everyone for a loop at first but I had ice out in the car so just needed the coffee! Great experience and yes...will be back on our next Boise visit! read more

I just got a bagel at the Boise Airport. The worst Bagel I have ever had. First, they gave me the wrong bagel. Not that big of a deal except it was doughy and hard. Tasted terrible. Bring back Einstein Bagels their bagels were great. Will have to find a new go to when I fly now. read more

Line was out the door on Friday morning, but it went fast! We were 10 deep and they got all the orders correct and in a fast manner. We ate 'em all up and really enjoyed them. Everyone who works there was super sweet and friendly. Our coffees were delicious too. It was warm inside and very welcoming. My sesame seed bagel with egg, cheddar and bacon was insanely delicious! read more

Can't be bothered to clean the knife off from the previous order, so get ready for onion and chives on your plain bagel. Every time. Poor customer service. read more

First time and only time I went in I ordered a breakfast sandwich with a plain bagel. Employee tried to force me into an "everything bagel" which I did not want because it had several ingredents that would have upset my very tender tummy. I had to threaten to not pay for said bagel, was ignored. Forunately Manager heard the conversation and asked if everything was ok. Employee said "nope just fine here!" To which I had to correct the record and explain to Manager. Had to explain that I had a very long day planed and that I, the driver/owner of the vehicle I was going to be in and the TWO other passengers would all be very appreciative if I wasn't constantly vomiting and having diarrhea in a confined space on a long daytrip to the Sun Valley area. Manager told Employee to go into the back, Employee refused, Manager had to state "that's an order, not a request." Finally got bagel made correctly. Never got anything for my trouble, just an insincere apology from Manager for Employee's poor behaviour. There's an old saying that goes "you never get a second chance to make a good first impression." Exceptionally poor first impression was made. Haven't been back since. Probablly won't be. read more

This bagel joint never disappoints! Been coming here for years and haven't liked a bagel I have ordered. My go to is any sandwich with jalapeno cream cheese. Jalapeno cream cheese is a must! The staff is friendly most of the time. I love that all the locations are consistently the same. If you're looking for a good hot breakfast or just a snack, this place is your go to for that fresh bagel sammy. read more

Genuinely one of the worst bagels I've ever eaten. The bagels are always hard, extremely filling (not in a good way), and extremely overpriced. I am so serious when I say the bread to cream cheese ratio is criminal. I don't know whether people have been hypnotized or paid off to write good reviews about this place, but from someone who is a bagel connoisseur, do not fall for it. read more

At the downtown location I had ordered a week in advance for a bulk order, the girl on the phone was incredibly rude, and when I arrived to pick up the bagels they were uncut to which I would assume they should still be cut. read more

New airport location - tastes like a day-old bagel. Dry. Blueberry bagels without any blueberries. . I fly out of BOI a few times per month and would always get an Einstein bagel. Hard pass on Blue Sky in the future. (And I like all styles of bagels). read more

Blue Sky Bagels is a Boise staple. If you're looking for a classic bagel sandwich look no further. With a variety of different bagels and cream cheeses, you're sure to find something you'll like. I got a bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on the Asiago bagel with herb garlic cream cheese. It tasted great! I gave it 3 stars because while it's a good bagel shop, I've had great bagels elsewhere! read more

Bagel breakfast sandwiches with all the fixings at no extra cost! Delicious! We called 10 minutes ahead and our two breakfast sandwiches were ready to pick up when we arrived. Soo many bagels and cream cheese combinations to choose from. It's a fast/casual place with some seating if you'd like to eat there. I'd highly recommend trying a breakfast sandwich and loading it up!! read more

What a perfect local spot in Boise! It was walking distance from Boise House where we were staying and the food was delicious! The people working there were so kind for so early in the morning especially during their rush, and made great suggestions to us tourists. Definitely put this on your list when you are in the area, you will not be sorry! read more

Love love love, I just love this place! Try to avoid the rush hours but other than a long line they are fast and friendly and have the fresh goods. They do a traditional salmon and lox and it's always perfection. Don't forget your punch card and give this place some regular love! Day olds are right inside the door as well and a steal! read more

I have to start this review off by saying that I am originally from New Jersey and can be quite the bagel snob. New Jersey and the New York City area of New York (there's a huge difference between the New York City area and the rest of New York) has some of the best bagels (not to mention pizza, delis, hot dogs and Italian food) so my standards are kind of high. So with my review of Blue Sky Bagels, I will try to take into account that to paraphrase Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz," we aren't in New Jersey (as opposed to Dorothy not being in Kansas). I will say that the exterior is attractive and inviting. Walking in, I found it similarly inviting and a pleasant place to grab a bagel and cream cheese. Service was relatively friendly and the pricing was fair. I opted for the everything bagel with the jalapeno cream cheese. I found the bagel to be ok, nothing spectacular, but nothing despicable and terrible. Again, I understand it is not New York and/or New Jersey, but I was hoping for more. Also, they were rather light on the cream cheese. In New Jersey and New York, a bagel with a schmear of cream cheese usually equals the bagel with an inch or more of the cream cheese, here they put way too little on. Again, I understand I am not in New Jersey or New York, but I just expected a bit more. Food has crossed state lines and you should get at least a decent version if what was once a regional thing. I have found great sushi in Vegas, great Italian in Florida. I was even shocked finding good barbecue up in Jersey. I remember twenty years ago when I lived up there, we had a place that we thought was good, then I moved to the south and found out it was terrible. On my last trip home to Jersey, I found some wonderful places. Sadly, this place just did not rise above mediocrity. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't anything special. I give it three stars (), not terrible, just not exceptionally good. If you are dying for a bagel and are by here, well, it will probably satiate that craving, but will leave you feeling a bit sad afterwards, missing the greatness that a bagel and cream cheese can be. read more

The customer service was very friendly and fast. I got a very solid bacon egg and cheese. Would recommend!

Blue sky bagels are the best! Highly recommend Asiago bagel toasted with veggie cream cheese chicken onion tomato cucumber and sprouts. Hits the spot every time! Great service too! Even when they are busy they work as a team to keep the line moving. Get some extra bagels to go! read more

Still not a hit for me. Line moved very slowly even though there were quite a few employees, who were pleasant and helpful. Glad for the parking! Still not a very diverse selection of bagels, smears, add-ons, and wish a breakfast sausage was available. Bagels are okay for Boise, I guess, but the bacon-scallion cream cheese had very little flavor and imperceptible amounts of bacon/scallions. Coffee was extremely weak and watered down and only regular milk provided, no cream, no skim, no milk-alternatives. The ordering system is worse than Starbuck's. I placed my large order with modifications at the first counter, where they wrote it all down. Great! Now on to the register where I had to repeat every word again. Listen, I haven't gotten my coffee yet, why are you making me do this again? I know they are trying to get everyone through quickly, but there needs to be a better system, perhaps the first person can type or have a copy for the register? I agree with others that Sarah's Bagels is much better. They will have all of my business now. Fly away Blue Sky! read more

Oh, a good bagel. Is there anything better? I love the bagels here. They're chewy and dense and delicious. They're freshly made throughout the day which is important for quality. They offer a large number of options of bagel types, so you can choose savory or sweet or plain depending on your mood. I'd you don't want just a bagel, they offer sandwiches. They have both breakfast sandwiches and lunch types. I love that they have a veggie sandwich. I normally just get a plain bagel, because I'm a Plain Jane in general. If I want something more substantial, though, I can get the veggie sandwich stacked with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, hummus, and mustard. Even if you're vegan you can get something substantial which is hard to do in these parts. They also offer soup and salad, and you get a discount for a bagel on the side if you'd like something to round out your meal. They also offer sodas and coffee. The cafe has plenty of seating and is generally pretty clean. I really appreciate that at the end of the day they bag up the previous day's bagels and you can get them for half price. You can purchase a big tub of their cream cheese to make yourself breakfast at home if you'd like. The servers often look pretty tired, honestly, but I don't blame them. I think they have trouble finding staff right now and I'm sure they're not paid well enough for their time. They are always polite and efficient and I encourage everyone to tip them for their service. Overall Blue Sky is a good place for lunch. Prices are a little high, but it's a quick place to stop by and offers a convenient and healthy option. read more

Very nice staff. Good selection of food. I just did not think the bagels were that great. Everything bagels tasted mostly like an onion bagel if anything. read more

Lovely little spot! The lady who helped us was very friendly! Got an egg cheese sandwich that was really good

Ordered two bagels, one missing bacon, the other missing veggies. Too long a await to get it remade!!! We had come in and had our sandwiches made after the two people who came in after us. Pleasant service but majorly lacking detail!!! read more

Nostalgia with a side of cream cheese? Yes, please! Good little bagel shop with nice views. Dawson Taylor coffee and fresh bagels. The everything with cream cheese add bacon is my favorite. Other good items include a variety of kombucha in a variety of flavors. Loads of shmears and tasty bagel options. Sadly, the couple times I have come in here, the staff is always kind of stand offish. Today, they were being catty with each other and it was weirdly uncomfortable. If they had better service, it would be 5 stars for sure. read more

By far the worst bagel I've ever had in my life. Do yourself a favor & go anywhere but here. Bagels from the grocery store bakery taste better than this, bagged bagels in the bread aisle at the grocery store taste better than this. Absolutely no flavor bagel or cream cheese. The cream cheese had this weird grainy texture. Not to mention, there was only cream cheese on ONE SIDE of my bagel, I know this because I asked for a slice of tomato. There was no cream cheese on the bagel that was on top of the tomato. I asked for the bagel to be double toasted for flavor because from the counter they looked stale & flavorless (it wasn't double toasted I watched them only toast it once). Gosh I'm so annoyed I wasted $4 on this. If you want to go to an all around phenomenal bagel shop visit Freedom Bagel in Meridian or Good Times Bagels in Boise. Blue Sky has potential but first they might want to start with better bagels & cream cheese. read more

I have had a few bagels in my day but these are the best! I remember many people around Boise telling me that Blue Sky had the best bagels and I would roll my eyes into my head. I thought, they are just bagels how good can they be? Well, well, well, let me tell you I am now addicted to the asiago bagel. No really, I am! When I order a bagel to go, I dig through the day old bagels in hopes of finding a bag of asiagos to take home ($2.00). When I don't, my day feels sad. I did go out on a limb and bought parmesan day old and yup, they are good too! Someday I will try a sandwich but for now, asiago, toasted with a smear of cream cheese please! read more

amazing bagel sandwiches! lots of ingredients to choose from and they're ALWAYS fresh and delicious! good prices too!

Poor service and locking doors before their service stops. Locked doors before 2:50pm.

Affordable, tasty bagels. Good bang for your buck. Great food for its price. Have stopped by twice and both have been pleasant experiences. It tends to be busy but good doesn't take long. Hummus and Veggies is a great sandwich, add to make it better, always a choice. read more

Who doesn't appreciate a tasty bagel shop? This one is by far the best in Boise! The bagels are always fresh, and the cream cheese selection is full of variety. I LOVE the sun dried tomato! If you go on the weekend, you will most likely have to wait a bit in the line, but the staff really moves through it quickly, and is friendly while ensuring the speed! I've ordered them via DoorDash also, and the freshness and quality is consistent. I recently had guests stay with me from out of town, and pre-purchased a dozen bagels and a few containers of cream cheese a few days before their arrival. The bagels stayed fresh for an entire week, and the guests very much enjoyed them. Compliments all around. read more

Pros: - good service - plenty of bagel & cream cheese options - even when the line is long, it doesn't take too long to get my order finished Cons: - I have yet to have a bagel cooked properly. Each of the 4-5x I have been here in the last few weeks, the bagels are severely undercooked, and under-toasted. Even when I ask for extra toasting, it's always extremely soft even if I eat the bagel right away. Today my bagel mushed between my fingers upon picking it up, and I ate it immediately after it was toasted. For this reason alone I don't think I can continue to buy here. - toppings on the everything/onion bagels taste very salty - the trash can being used as a door stop causes many flies to circle around the store which seems unhygienic Please try baking your bagels longer! read more

This place is one of nostalgia for me. Morning bagels on the weekend with my mom for years. It's a great, unfancy place to meet up and talk. There's space to spread out and spreads to try out. The food is not out of this world, but it's good. The memories of this place are ones made there. They know there place and that they are the space for really great things. Give them a visit. Taste the memories. And keep going back. read more
