No parking. Too slow. I waited forever for soup. Peoples sandwgiches were ready before my soup tgat i ordered before they even came in. I parked illegally cuz noone was in here and i just wanted soup. Not sure why 2 heated sandwhiches ordered after me were done before my soup. Dont come here in a hurry. 2 heated sandwiches and a toasted bagel order that came in after you will be served quicker than soup and 3 other customers. 2 stard because friendly read more

I ordered my bagels so I could enjoy then in the mornings. They did not make it past the afternoon. The fact I took them home means that I did not experience any if the issues I see in the poor reviews. I will agree that I was very confused by the ordering process and the person who took my offer was a bit unconcerned that I was ready. He made up for this by individually wrapping my bagels so that the different flavors don't meld in my bag. I was quite pleased by the bagels and will take more home the next time I am in the area. read more

Up until now, I have been unimpressed by the bagels in Chicago. They usually just seem like slightly chewier rolls with a hole in them. Brobagels, however, are REAL bagels, just like the ones I grew up eating on the east coast. I'm so glad that I made the trek up to Wicker Park to try them (despite the name). I'm really impressed by the bagels themselves, but also by the cream cheeses - the lemon dill (on the lox sandwich I had) was delicious, as is the scallion. If only they made an egg bagel (my favorite flavor), I'd be completely satisfied. read more

We waited 20 minutes for a bagel with cream cheese and a bagel with lox only to have them tell us unapologetically that they "just couldn't find the order ticket" and would have to start over. It's a bagel, people. The lack of efficiency for the product is consistently outrageous. Please fix this. read more

I've been here a few times with nothing but good experiences. The bagels are great - they're thick, salty, crunchy on the outside, and soft on the inside. My go-to combo is the garlic bagel with sriracha cream cheese. Minus one star for the mediocre coffee (the iced coffee tastes extremely watered down) and fairly high prices, but those won't stop me from coming back. It gets PACKED on the weekends and there is very little space in there to do anything but stand, so go on a weekday if you can. I haven't had any issues with service like some of the other yelpers have had. read more

FAIL. I ordered the VEGAN sandwich. It was missing the avocado. I mean it only have five ingredients. Then after I paid $8.89 I realized that it is only a $6.99 sandwich. I was robbed. These are just bagels guys.... fail. Sucks I was hoping for more. You know what they say... a good review gets spread to one or two people but a bad review gets spread to ten. read more

Brobagel - Bagels Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Went to brobagel this weekend on a recommendation from a friend. The wait in line was pretty long but not even 5 minutes after I ordered my food was ready! I got the bacon egg and cheddar on salt and it was delicious! The bagel itself was perfectly baked and plenty salted, bacon crispy and overall tasty sandwich! Staff at the window were very friendly and cheerful. Will definitely be back for more. read more

Outstanding spot!! Wicker parks best bagel joint. An all around staple. Handsome staff in the front, Alexis, and he always makes the food quickly and perfectly!! If you want to go to a spot with staff that treats you like you matter, go to bro bagel!! Coolest style on the staff too. Flavor combos rock. Try it out, you won't be disappointed!!! And ask for Alex! read more

Really just a bunch of millennials working slowly and inefficiently like I've only seen millennials do... Are there not a few brain cells to rub together here? I have never been to a bagel shop that takes over a half hour for two bagels and one coffee... I just sat there waiting and waiting...wondering when I would abandon this fruitless effort and head elsewhere. The bagels are good though. That's all I have. Is that worth it when there is a food Mecca all around me? No. Avoid this place if there is any kind of a line at all read more

We stopped in on our lunch break after having the first world problem of not being able to decide where to eat. The Brobagel is goddamn delicious and the brown eyed dude behind the counter that made them was fine as hell sooooooo 5 STARS. read more

Totally unimpressive. I tried again today after a weak bagel experience the first time. Today My lox sandwich barely had any Lox, the bagel was small and hard and the sandwich itself had few other (typical) fixins. (No capers, no cucumbers? For shame bro bagel, for shame) my everything bagel should have just been called "salt bagel" as this was more than just the overpowering flavor. Outside of my experience with subpar food, nothing stands out at all minus some interesting cream cheese. Typical menu. Nothing novel on the sandwich front. there are so many other spots better in the neighborhood. read more

The food is great but the fact that most staff have no customer service skills and you wait 1/2 hr for bagel sandwich is ridiculous. Just saying, I would wait and not complain if staff was friendly and acknowledged you will have a ridiculous amount of time to get a bagel toasted. read more

Totally amazing bagel anything's.. I work around the corner and their the best! Mmm mmm..

Loved the fast services they gave me today it was so busy My food was served in 10 mins I will highly recommended!! Brobagel read more

Bagels are terrific-- great East Coast style. Always good either in store or via postmates

best lox bagel i've had in chicago, must try. breakfast sandwiches were ok too, but i was very impressed with the lox

3.5 stars but I'll round up. I ordered an egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on a garlic bagel with sriracha spread (which I paid extra for). The good: bagel was flavorful and chewy. Eggs were delicious. Overall, a tasty sandwich. The bad: cheese was not very good; wish I could have chosen which flavor I wanted. Also, never got my sriracha spread. what's the point of eating breakfast if I can't have hot sauce with it! $4.50 was way too much for this. The one girl at the counter was very nice even though she forgot my spread. Another employee's boyfriend was hanging around and it was weird. I don't want to see you guys touching while you're working. Sorry :( but, I'd come back for lunch. I think the pricing is relative to the neighborhood and I'm glad to have the option of brobagel here. read more

The service was efficient and friendly, they ran out of cash so they made me charge it but I didn't mind. They were baking more Everything bagels when I walked in but they told me it would be 8 min and if have a fresh bagel-so worth the wait. I ordered the everything bagel with bacon egg and cheese. It was piled high with scrambled eggs, lots of bacon and cheddar cheese. It was magical. I will definitely go back for another.. Maybe even right away haha I also ordered a garlic bagel with siracha cheese cheese for my breakfast tomorrow-I can only imagine how good it will be since the first bagel was the best ever. read more

The garlic cream cheese didn't taste like garlic at all. I ordered some vegan bagel which was stuffed so full I couldn't eat it. Normally I wouldn't ever be one to complain about an overly stuffed bagel... although, their lack of forks caused some irritation. They also did not have salt or pepper. Who wants an unsalted vegan sandwich? BUNK. read more

This place was perfect! I just graduated from college and started living/working in the area. Seen this place a few times while walking around the neighborhood and wanted to try it. Walked in for a late lunch sandwich and ordered the Brobagel. Unlike many fast food bagel sandwich places (i.e. Einstein's) that reheat gross and rubbery bacon to use on your sandwich, these guys have very fresh bacon that they crisp up for you. Honestly it was delicious, and I'm not a huge bacon fan. They also loaded it with avocado, which I love cause most places totally gyp you on that ingredient. The garlic cream cheese was probably a bit much for my taste but it probably would have been fine if I hadn't got it on an everything bagel. A bit pricey at first glance but not really when you consider the quality and the size - I am stuffed after eating that! Service was very nice and the place was very clean and beautifully decorated. Loved the nicely framed photos of the brothers who founded it on the wall. I will definitely come back - with friends! read more

Brobagel - clearly I enjoyed my brobagel so much, I snapped it :) - Bagels Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Even from the street you can smell the fresh bagels and coffee. You walk in and typically it is very packed. There can be a long line, however they typically are very fast with fulfilling orders. I usually get the Mozz sandwich, and vary the type of bagel that I get it on. It is my favorite bagel sandwich that I have ever had. This past time I had it on the onion bagel and I think this is my favorite combination so far. The bagel was not warm, however not cold either. The toppings were very fresh and balanced out the onion flavor from the bagel well. The staff was pretty friendly, especially for being as busy as they were! read more

Brobagel - The Mozz on an onion bagel, delicious! - Bagels Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Best bagels in the area plus they offer vegan options. Fast service. Swing by Saturday morning to see what's it's all about.

Me and my husband were dying after a long night at lollapalooza and in the morning needed some revival food. Brobagel was a short distance from where we were staying so my husband got in an uber for me to go pick us up something. I called in the order and was on hold for a long time. I'm not marking down for that, because it was a Saturday morning at 9:30 AM, so I can imagine that they were slammed. I got an everything bagel with sriracha cream cheese and it was definitely flavorful but the bagel itself wasn't THAT superb. My husband got the atomic bagel sandwich and said that it definitely lived up to it's name and did the trick to hold him over for our brunch plans with friends later. I didn't see many bagel places in general with stellar reviews, so if your'e craving a bagel I would say give this place a shot. I probably would have liked the bagel better if it was hot and fresh at the location, but since we got it to-go it was a little cold by the time my husband got back. I'm going to steal the sriracha cream cheese idea and use it at home now though lol most definitely. read more

Hmm, I got an everything bagel with plain cream cheese. My jaw is still sore from chewing it! Maybe I shouldn't have gotten it toasted? Maybe I am not a true NY bagel aficionado? I don't like em chewy, give me fluffy anyday! Also, do everything bagels usually have salt? This one seemed to, which I didn't really like. I mean it was fine, but I don't know that I will be dying to go back. Bummer. Although, it might be for the best so I don't weigh 1000 lbs. I will give it another shot to try a sammich though, those looked really good! read more

Makes me feel better about cheat day when I'm having stuff on a bagel. Staff is friendly and fast. Definitely recommend to those who want a quick and somewhat healthy breakfast or lunch. read more

The person on the cash register this am could not finish one task before starting another, take an order correctly, or show any signs of hustle. The predictable chaos ensued during morning rush. The other person behind the counter was working hard to make up for the delays but it was an impossible task. read more

Excellent bagels! They are dense and chewy with a sheen on the outside. These guys know what's up when it comes to making the perfect bagel. They not only offer all the usual suspects for bagel flavors, they also have unique ones like beer bagels and walnut raisin bran. Where else can you get a beer bagel with sriracha spread (other interesting spreads include caramelized onion and garlic confit. Plenty of options for the bagel sandwiches as well as egg and cheese bagel sandwiches for the morning. Fantastic addition to the neighborhood! read more

Got the garlic bagel with the siracha cream cheese spread and it was fantastic. The spread was such a unique and delicious idea. Only issues I had was the bagel was cold and as delicious as the siracha spread was, they put way too much on it. Service was awesome- very nice and friendly people working here. I told them I was visiting for the first time from Dallas and the girl there made a list of the best places to go in Chicago- made the effort to make me feel like family here. read more

I recently went to Brobagel and got my usual, an everything bagel with plain cream cheese. It was tasty. I found a hair on it, who knows who's it was.. I ate the whole thing anyway. Pete Clancy read more

Stopped by on a Saturday morning and ordered one of their breakfast sandwich bagels and on of their regular sandwich bagels. Service was friendly and speedy, even though there were maybe 8 different parties in the small shop at the same time. Both the sandwiches were ok. Just a-ok. Nothing impressed me; in fact if you told me this was a sandwich from Panera or the next mid-range chain, I'd have believed you. Honestly, I think they were pricey for the size and quality of the food. Not disappointed per se, but I doubt I'll return considering the vast array of excellent options in the area. read more

I love this place! Great bagel sandwiches (especially the atomic). Staff working the cashier and making the bagel sandwiches were fantastic and delivered a great customer experience. They made my day :) Overall as good of a bagel run as I could hope for. Keep up the great job! read more

This place was great. They really came through in my time of need. I was craving a bagel all day but my girlfriend wanted a sandwich so it was a perfect compromise. The bagel was great and so was the sandwich. read more

I got the veggie sandwich on a poppy seed bagel which comes with veggie spread, roasted cauliflower (which they were out of), roasted fennel, radish, tomato, and mixed greens. Sounds delicious right? I really wanted to like it but it kinda didn't taste like anything. I don't know if the cauliflower would have made a difference but the sandwich I got was just aight. And probably not worth a second visit. But I am intrigued by other sandwiches on their menu, and the creative cream cheese flavors (sriracha, garlic confit) so maybe I'll come back if I'm in the neighborhood. read more

BroBagel is painfully close to my apartment. I love me some good bagels, and Piece has never done me wrong, so my boyfriend and I decided to try it out this morning. I was majorly disappointed, unfortunately. We both ordered the Club Sandwich on an everything bagel. We waited a solid 15 minutes for our take out order, which I found odd, considering there were 3 people behind the counter making bagels and only one person in line in front of me. We got home to find that the bagels weren't even toasted, and turkey wasn't warm, which was a little disappointing. The everything bagel was too salty for my liking. It was painfully mediocre. I would have considered giving them 3 stars, but they forgot the bacon on my Club sandwich. Maybe I'm spoiled after living so close to CBA for a long time, but I was pretty bummed out about BroBagel. I might try it again, just because it's so close, but I won't waste my time on the sandwiches. Probably just bagels and cream cheese from here on out. read more

Went there this morning - got 2 egg cheese and bacon bagels one on honey walnut bagel and the other on beer bagel. It was empty the employee was slow with service. The music was TOOO loud I could not hear the employee!!! Our breakfast bagels were edible BUT NOTHING I WOULD GO BACK FOR--both lacked flavor!!!!! read more

What a terrible experience! My fiancé and I came here after church to grab a quick bagel before we started the rest of our day. We waited over 30 minutes for a bagel with cream cheese and a simple breakfast sandwich. We saw numerous people that came in after us leave before us. The food was cold. The sandwich was greasy. The bagel was overloaded with cream cheese. Overall, it was a poor experience with even worse customer service. The workers were not friendly and they were slow moving. There were about 8 people behind the counter, but it took FOREVER to get two simple items. We will not be returning. Thumbs down Brobagel. read more

I love the bagels here but the service is unbearably slow. They will typically only have one person working during rush hour/ the morning commute on weekdays. For every two people that stick out the line and order, I'll usually see one sigh and leave to get to work on time. I don't know if the owner is too cheap to hire more staff, but they are losing a significant amount of revenue just from walk outs alone. These are people that went out of their way to come to the establishment and left, which is a huge loss and problem with their business model. read more

Brobagel is as good as it gets in Chicago for bagels. The staff are really friendly and always take time to answer my questions. I like to ask "what's fresh?". They tell me what bagels have come out of the oven most recently and I don't even think about toasting! read more

Took a trip here to compare against our all time favorite new York bagel and bialey on Touhy. We do traditional style bagels and order the fixins to make at home. The bagels were the right size for one. The exterior was the proper texture and the inside was cooked perfectly with great flavor. Loves the everything bagel. The salt bagel is fantastic we haven't been able to find that many places. Nice spreads great service. They will be a force to be reconned with in the bagel world. read more

If you don't mind spending 3+ dollars for a bagel and plain cream cheese, then go for it. The bagel was good but they didn't toast it enough for my liking, but it was still good. I tend to like a lot of cream cheese, but this was overkill. Overall, probably won't go back because that's just too much for a bagel. read more
