Love this bagel shop. The bagel and cream cheese was delicious. I had a cinnamon sugar bagel with plain cream cheese. They give more than enough cream cheese. The service was great. I ordered online and everything was ready to go when I arrived. They have a small seating area. A couple small tables and counter seating. read more

Gotham Bagels - Magnificent Mile - Cinnamon sugar bagel with plain cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I went to Gotham Bagels with very high expectations. We went in on a Sunday morning, and there was a short line to order. The bagels themselves were super disappointing: very tough to bite into and tear. I'm a big fan of NY bagels and have been trying to find good bagel spots in Chicago. This one really broke my heart. It was fairly expensive, too. I had a bagel at a NY airport today just to get over the sadness, and it reminded me why I love bagels. I did like the cream cheese and lox at Gotham, but the bagels are the whole point. read more

I was really looking forward to trying Gotham Bagels, but my experience was just okay. The Bagel itself was disappointing and a little too tough to bite through.The Sausage in the sandwich was excellent. It was really tasty and had a great spicy kick. There was a bit of a crowd when I arrived, but the staff kept it moving pretty quickly, so the wait wasn't bad at all. Overall, the flavorful sausage saved the sandwich, but the bagel texture needs improvement. read more

Gotham Bagels has a couple of locations around the downtown Chicago area. My husband and I happened to stop in for a hardy breakfast before exploring Michigan Avenue. The inside connects to the Gino's East next door but had enough seating for about 15ish people. The staff takes orders quickly and turns over food within 5-10 minutes. I ordered the Bacon Egg & Cheese sandwich on an Asiago Bagel. The egg was definitely the most prominent flavor. I wished the bacon was a little more evenly laid out and a bit more included. The sandwich itself was a bit more greasy than I was expecting as well but portion was huge! My husband got the Everything bagel with lox spread and thoroughly enjoyed his. This was a nice bagel stop and while it doesn't rank in my top choices, it was still great to enjoy! read more

Great NY style bagel! The line was pretty long but they had a kiosk to order from as well, and the wait wasn't too bad, but because it's a very small little storefront, it felt a bit crowded. Extra seating upstairs too. I goofed up and thought I was getting an egg sandwich, but all their ingredients are written out, and so if it doesn't say egg, it doesn't come with an egg hahaha. Despite no egg, the sandwich was incredible! The bagel had a great bounce and chew to it, and was very fresh. All the ingredients inside were so fresh and clearly high quality. I would 100% come back, though I think because of how busy it was, it might be better to order in advance and just pick up. Staff was kind and it was fairly clean inside. read more

Gotham Bagels - Magnificent Mile - THE YELLOW C.A.B. - Bagels Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

if I could give a 0 today, I would. Order #292. Ordered 2 bagels non toasted and a tub of cream cheese at 10:08 am. Order came out 10:40. Looked in bag- single bagel, toasted with cream cheese on the bagel. I informed the staff that the order was incorrect. The response was that they could re-enter a new order and it would be 15 min. my response was can you just go in the back and toss 2 bagels in a bag with a Tub of cream cheese. No was the response. Gotham bagels, you clearly have a customer service issue and as I manage a customer service team- this location is in dire need of training. I took 10 min and Walked over to Cory's to grab my bagels Vs wait another 15 min and not sure that my order would be correct the 2nd time Around. Telling a customer No when it was your error is why companies lose customers. read more

Stopped by here for a quick breakfast while near the Magnificent Mile and it was solid. The cashier was friendly and made the experience easy from the start. I ordered the traditional tuna fish on an everything bagel, and they were definitely generous with the tuna, the portion was great and the flavor really hit the spot. The bagel itself was good, though I do wish it had a bit more of that everything seasoning to really bring it together. It also came with a spicy pickle spear, which was a delicious bonus. Everything came out quickly, which was perfect since I was on the go. Overall, a tasty and convenient breakfast stop! read more

The restaurant is very small and filled with wall to wall people. The bagels were honestly some of the best I've ever tasted from a bagel spot before. The raisin was full with golden raisins but they were not sweet which loved . The honey wheat everything bagel was a nice spin on the everything bagel. The Asiago cheese one was ( perfect ) . The service was very quick for the amount of people that were waiting . My only gripe is this location is small but convenient to the mag mile . Definitely check it out when in the CHI. read more

A pretty damn good bagel if I do say so. Not the cheapest in town but actually large enough and really fresh enough to make it work the roughly 17 bucks I paid for a breakfast bagel. Fresh out of the oven bagel and quality ingredients on the sammy made it worth the price. It was quickly prepared too. Even the bagel and a smear i tried on another day was fresh with a huge smear and worth the 6 bucks. Sorry I have no pics of my sammy to post it really was so good i ate it all before I had a chance to take a pic. Try them out they're worth it. read more

What a lovely spot! Stopped in after a doctors appointment since it is so close to all the medical facilities in Streeterville. Was amazed at the vegan choices and I had an everything bagel with vegan scallion cream cheese that was delicious. The staff was delightful. One commented about my dress and another was dancing around to the music and everyone was smiling and happy. How wonderful after you just had a brutal doctor appointment to experience this. read more

Definitely found my new downtown lunch spot. read more

I got the sausage, egg, and cheddar bagel. Got plain bagel with it. The sausage is a thick patty. It's sooo good! Well seasoned and got that little kick of spice to it. Bagel has a really nice chew. It came with a pickle. Very sour and a little salty for me. But I def would go back to get other bagel options! read more

Gotham Bagels - Magnificent Mile - OMFG Bagel sandwich on an Everything Bagel. - Bagels Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Gotham Bagels is such a gem right off the Mag Mile. It's a cute, cozy shop with just enough indoor seating and a super quick in-and-out setup--perfect for busy mornings in the city. They've got a huge lineup of bagel sandwiches, tons of bagel and cream cheese options, and a full range of drinks. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, even when the weekday morning rush hits hard! I ordered the spicy sausage, fried egg, and cheddar on a toasted Asiago bagel with a smear of veggie cream cheese and... WOW. The bagel was perfectly done--crispy and well-toasted on the outside, soft and fluffy inside. The sausage, egg, and cheese combo was phenomenal, and they didn't overdo the cream cheese, which I really appreciated. The size is massive for the price too--total NY-style bagel vibes! Definitely one of my go-to spots when I'm craving a legit bagel in the city. Highly recommend! read more

Big bagel sandwiches. I got the bacon egg and cheese on an Asiago bagel with veggie cream cheese affected. These are very filling and well made, but could've used a bit more cream cheese in my opinion. It was very busy on a Friday morning. They have limited seating, friendly staff, and no public bathroom. read more

Stopped by for a breakfast bagel. Picked up a coffee and pastrami & egg bagel. You can choose your bagel (I got egg everything) and doneness of the fried egg. There was a bit of a line at 8a on a Thursday but orders were taken fairly quickly and sandwiches came out fast. The pastrami was nice and salty, though the bagel was also a bit salty too. It paired nicely with the hard fried egg though so I felt satisfied. The pickle closed it well. read more

While Chicago isn't known for its bagels, you can find the exception to the rule at Gotham Bagels. I ordered two Brighton Beach sandwiches. One on a standard everything bagel and one on an egg everything bagel. Both were great, but the egg was by far my favorite. It had enough textural integrity to hold the ingredients, but still soft enough to not ruin your mouth! The quality and freshness of the ingredients provided the perfect breakfast! If you're looking for a good bagel, make sure to stop by Gotham Bagels. read more

Stopped by Gotham Bagels after seeing it on my TikTok and really made me hyped. I went for the Lox and Cream Cheese bagel and my girlfriend got the Egg & Bacon sandwich. The staff were super nice and fast, so points for that. But... for the bagel itself? It was just a little dry and kind of bland. It was sad as I really wanted to love this place, but I've had plenty of other Chicago bagels that hit way harder. This was certainly one of those Tik Tok hype vs reality situations and the reality is to skip this place. read more

The interior is pretty small and there are some seats, but I assume this location is primarily for takeout. The line went by really fast even though it went out the door. I found my bagel to be 18 dollars, even though it had a lot of fillings, I didn't think it was worth the price. The cream cheese was too salty. The bagel itself was really good though, next time I would just stick to a bagel and a schmear read more

I've heard about Gotham Bagels and finally had the opportunity to try it as one of their locations wasn't far from our hotel. We were lucky to have arrived when the line seemed to die down and some seating was available. I ordered an iced vanilla latte and two bagel sandwiches because I couldn't pick between them. Loved the OMFG but definitely felt like my favorite was the Lox bagel with cream cheese. I would 1000% come back again for more of their delicious bagels. The iced latte was decent too! Also honorable mentions to the team working hard to keep bagels coming out. They were busy but never let their stress turn into rudeness. It seems like everyone was working well as a team to get food out as efficiently as possible which was amazing imo. The dining area was small and limited but perfect for eating a bagel read more

Great spot for a New York style bagel in Chicago. I have come a few times for a basic toasted bagel and spread and all the flavors have been delicious. This time I opted for a bigger sandwich. It was delicious! Definitely one of the more expensive bagels I have had, but it had great flavor and was HUGE. My only complaint is that the fried chicken on it was lacking in some flavor and was steamed in the bagel so it lost its crunch. Service was quick despite the line and there is some seating inside, but you may have to wait for a table to open up if its a busy morning. Definitely has a coffee shop busy atmosphere. read more

A delightful little bagel spot in the heart of the north downtown area in Chicago. I loved in the city for 15 years and had never been here until now. A lot of bagel options and sandwich selections. I got the one egg on and everything and they let me add avocado to it. They make their own hot sauce and dill pickles. They gave us a sample of each with our bagels. Hot sauce was perfect for my bagel but the dill pickles it was so vinegary it was a bit jolting. read more

We were craving breakfast bagels and decided to go to Gotham for some. In entering, there was a huge line inside but it was fast moving. We ordered the Asiago bagel with scallion cream cheese and the everything bagel with scrambled eggs. We ordered was called out pretty fast. There's a bit of seating the restaurant but it gets full quickly. Most people come here for grab and go orders. The bagels were scrumptious!!!! They come packed with schmear and the schmear is very creamy too. The egg bagel sandwich was very yummy too. I will be back. read more

On a cold blustery morning a bagel sandwich sounded appealing. Gotham has all different types of bagels, but I stuck with the old faithful everything bagel. Holy moly that was the best bagel ever: soft, chewy, and perfectly seasoned. The eggs tasted freshly scrambled and the bacon was crispy. The only downside is now I will compare every bagel to this one. read more

When I go to Streeterville neighborhood in Chicago if I'm looking for breakfast, I usually stop by Gotham bagels, which my friends from the north east sat is an authentic representation of New York bagels. I'll take their word for it as I don't discern on my carbs :) Great options all around . Can't go wrong with Everything bagel. Breakfast bagels come with an incredibly tart pickle :) loved the energy of the staff as they were singing along to the music playing which was a cool vibe. #Bagel #Breakfast #QuickEats read more

A whole in the wall kinda place with New York inspired bagels. The Avocado Bagel was really delicious and so was the Brighton Beach Bagel.

The service was good too. read more

Gotham Bagel was my first choice for breakfast. It was located right off the Magnificent Mile, quite close to my hotel. The bagel shop is very small with limited seating, so I decided to get breakfast on the go. The staff is friendly and patient, and the service was quick despite being extremely busy! I am obsessed with bagels, but I have the appetite of a bird. So, I chose an Asiago bagel with chive cream cheese, while my husband got the same with lox. I devoured the bagel. It was just as it should be: dense and chewy with a generous amount of cream cheese. I had no complaints. However, I have had equally good bagels before, and considering the cost, they were a bit steep. read more

Great little bagel place in the middle of the city! Walking in here, I was surprised by the following: Loud music, no available seating, and a long line. This is not a bad thing at all. This tells me that: They like to listen to music while working/eating, people like to stop and eat vs. take food and go, and people really like the bagels here. We ordered some Everything bagels and some Sesame bagels and as a bagel lover, these did not disappoint. I did sneak a view at some individuals actually eating here and the cream cheese to bagel ratio was pretty spot on. I mean, you can always add more schmear, but I was not upset at all. I also like that they have free cups of water too. read more

The only bagel shop we got to try on our trip and I'm glad it was this one! I subbed the bacon for turkey bacon and got a side of cream cheese to add.

Also really enjoyed the side of hot sauce they threw in the bag. read more

Gotham Bagels was a great find just off the Mag Mile, right next door to our hotel. Tons of choices for bagels and shmears! I ordered a toasted onion bagel (scooped) with scallion cream cheese--super fresh, perfectly chewy, cut in half wrapped in paper and a solid portion. Easy to eat in the car. The iced cold brew had a chocolatey taste and was a surprise hit--smooth and hit the spot. There was a bit of a line, but it moved fast and the staff kept things friendly and efficient.
