I've also had their tater tots before and those are amazing as well. Many options for everyone, including sandwiches and other desserts! This place is quite popular so there definitely is going to be a wait. There's seating inside and spacious seating outside, (perfect to start your mornings) and parking in the garage that's next to it! They also have a $5 quick meal if you get there before 10am ;)

totally worth the hype!!!…read more we came on a Sunday morning and it wasn't busy! originally i was gonna try the garlic one but i chickened out last second because i'm not a fan of cream cheese. instead, i tried the pizza stuffed bagel and it was SOOO good. the honey garlicky glaze on the bagel was a whole nother level, yall need to try it for yourself. my bf got the breakfast becky which was also very good. it had bacon egg cheese arugula and gochujang aioli and i feel like all the flavors worked really well together. will be coming back to try the garlic one!!! they have ample seating inside :)

The quality of food is second to none. Not only are the workers and owners just simply fantastic, their food is too. Our favorites are the MCB (nova lox, tomato, onion, capers & plain cream cheese on an everything bagel) and the Loxsmith (nova lox, crispy salmon skin, radish, pickled fennel, dill & beet cream cheese on an everything bagel). The MCB shines above all the other sandwiches for me and it's our favorite breakfast in the morning. Every bagel has the right amount of chewiness that we all love. My family and I would walk and frequent this place every morning to start the day with their fantastic bagels when we lived in the area. Oh how much we miss the living in Highland Park with the awesome shops and restaurants this city has! They also do platters and we've ordered for pick up for our office meetings too and everyone loves it! You can preorder everything online and set a day and time to pick up.

5/27/2026 4 Stars -…read moreminus 1 Star for lack in parking spaces. First time at Belle's. PEC Got it on a plain bagel. The bagel was fluffy and had a nice chew! Herby mayo, hot sweet peppers had a hint of spice, pastrami was soft and not too salty, egg was fluffy. It was a good bagel sandwich. However, I don't think I'd reorder this. LATKE Crispy and savory. The sourcream and apple sauce together was delicious. Absolutely loved the apple sauce, which had a beautiful texture and sweetness that was addictive. The star was the applesauce! SALT BAGEL, EVERYTHING BAGEL, CACIO E PEPE, EVERYTHING PUMPERNICKEL BAGEL All of the untoasted bagels except the Cacio e Pepe, had a firm outer texture, a bit hard to tear apart with hands. Inside the bagels were dense, yet had a light chewy texture and not dry either. Toasted, they were even better. The outer crust was beautifully crispy and the inside bagel was soft and chewy. The beet cream cheese was delicious with all the bagels! Cacio e Pepe was soft all around, unlike the other bagels. Cacio e Pepe had a light cheese and black pepper crust. It wasn't full of cacio e pepe flavor right off the bat, but still enough to know what you're eating. If you ate only the top bagel, I think you'll get the best of this bagel. Still good all around, even toasted. I think it will be great as a bagel sandwich. Everything Pumpernickle had a good pumpernickle flavor in addition to the everything seasonings. They did not skimp on the seasonings! Every inch of that bagel was covered in seasonings! Favorite Bagels: Salt Bagel, Everything Bagel BEET CREAM CHEESE Delicious! Smooth, creamy, almost buttery! This is whipped cream cheese with roasted beet puree. Light in beet flavor, it had dill in it too. I was hesitant in getting a tub because it was on the pricier side. But it was so good, glad I got it! SEATS / AMBIANCE It had a lovely East Coast diner feel when walking in. But still, the space felt a bit cluttered. There were booths, counter seats and outdoor seats too. It was packed inside on a Wednesday lunch. Got there before noon. CUSTOMER SERVICE Overall good, friendly service. Staff was smiling and that's always a good thing! Went on a Wednesday before noon, but it was nearly packed. PARKING Horrible. Just horrible. Street parking only. There's a few spots directly in front of Belle's, but it's metered parking too and also it was full. It's parking that always makes or breaks your experience when driving to LA. After driving around to find a decent parking spot, I finally found one close to Belle's, but after parking, I realized it was a loading zone. So hurried to get my food to go and just ate in the car. Overall, I enjoyed the bagels here and would love to return for their bagels and lunch offerings.

Holy smokes, I'm so happy to have found this spot. What a local gem. Food is very yummy and…read morespecial, the entire menu has something for everyone. Nut free, gluten free is rare. This place is a hit. Try one of each and everything. I love that the sweets are not too sweet, the bagels are fantastic. No matter what you try you won't be disappointed. It's one of those that maked you wanna come back for more. Good quality oils, chocolate was super yummy. I wish they used dark chocolate in the "croissants " but still a big smile on anyone's face who tried them. Service I will say could use more smiles. I wish it was perhaps a bit friendlier but that's okay. Someone may have had an off day. Hopefully better next time. Ambience is cozy, even date worthy. Everything on display was picture perfect.

Massively disappointed…read more I had Modern Bread and Bagel saved in my Yelp saves for a while. I found myself nearby and decided to bring home a treat. I picked up the cinnamon roll slice and the strawberry donut. Both were ultra dense and flavorless, save for the frosting. Not sweet, not savory, just completely bland. We won't be returning.

The bagel shop is pretty small (maybe two small tables built into the side to sit at) but it smells like lovely fresh baked bread. I ordered online and the system said it would take 30 minutes but I came in maybe 10 min after ordering and it was already done. If you order online and live close, I would just head over because they might have your order ready then. To order your bagel online with spread, write the details of the bagels (what type of bagel you want, the type of meat, etc.) in the "notes" portion.

We got a sample of the sesame bagel with wasabi cream cheese and persian cucumbers with salmon. It was very delightful! Bagel was chewy and doughy and it was by far my favorite. I also bought a jalapeno cheddar bagel that I had for breakfast today and it was still soft. It was soo good. I'm bummed I only bought 1. If you are in the area, it's worth it!

Wonderful experience! Great, sweet, and helpful workers fill the place with positive energy!…read more Two plain bagels and two drinks were 20 dollars. Cute but limited seating outside.

He is honestly the best thing to happen to Boichik Bagels! He's so sweet, attentive, charismatic, and genuinely seems to care about both his work and the people coming in. I've definitely started coming by more often thanks to Chris and his uplifting attitude. He really makes the place feel welcoming. And the bagels themselves... WOW. The onion and garlic bagels are SO good, and the chive cream cheese is incredible. I'm absolutely obsessed. Thank you, Chris, for making the experience so much better every time I stop by!

Well, at least he is honest, but shouldn't you know the menu if someone is trying to order off of it? Also, Maybe they were having a bad day because I asked how they were doing twice, and both times I was ignored. Bagel was on the smaller side but moist. Very average. Not the Russ and Daughters experience I had last month. Much more superior there. For a good bagel in LA, try Bonjour Bagels..

They offer a few seasonal specialty drinks, including the Carrot Cake Latte, which was absolutely delicious--it really tasted like drinking a slice of carrot cake. The bagels are freshly baked with a great variety to choose from, and you can actually smell the bread baking in the back when you walk in. The blueberry bagel with blueberry compote was outstanding and one of our favorites. We ordered a large spread of bagels, heirloom tomatoes, vegetables, and accompaniments for a pre-wedding "getting ready" brunch with the bride and bridal party. Everything was beautifully packaged and ready for pickup on time, complete with utensils, napkins, and everything we needed to serve and enjoy the meal. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfect for our special occasion. We'd definitely order from Laila's again when we're in Santa Monica.
