Needed some breakfast enroute to Vermont and we found this place. Prices were very reasonable. Food was just ok. One daughter got a bagel/lox/cream cheese, and it was quite good. The rest of us got egg/meat/bagel sandwiches. while large they were really bland. We only ate 1/2 of them, not really wanting anymore. read more

The bagels were fresh, but the sandwiches themselves were lacking. The shop has only two tables for dine-in customers, both with a clear view of opened beverage boxes from Sam's Club or Costco. read more

Bagel World was closed so we followed the string of cars in search of bagels to this spot. We had driven by it for years, but we were happy that they were open in our time of bagel need! Good quality, good selection, extensive coffee options. The spot is tiny amd the line was out the door. Service was fast. My daughter didn't like the coffee so they made her a new one, no questions asked. Would definitely return. read more

This place is 3.5 stars. Bagel sandwiches were very reasonably priced, especially compared to South Florida. Three of us ordered bagels, egg cheese, and meat sandwiches, which were good but seemed to be missing some flavor. Other daughter ordered a bagel with scallion cream cheese, and nova and it was delicious. The coffee was also good. There are only two tables so it's really a takeout place. read more

Food and service weren't good. They microwaved the egg cheese and sausage in front of me and were walking away as I was ordering

The bagels are good but not as good as the competitor down the street :/ The bagels look the same as the other place but have "less body" or aren't as chewy. For reference, I consider BW to be the gold-standard for bagels. I had high hopes for this place. I'll have to give them another try though. read more

I can't believe they are allowed to microwave eggs and breakfast meat for your sandwich. Gross. How is this allowed? I wouldnt go back. The fact that is so highly rated makes me doubt my Yelp membership read more

For $6.10, I had the Nova lox bagel sandwich with everything in it. By everything, it surprisingly had lots of things--I'm talking about micro greens, cucumber, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, cream cheese, and so on! The bagel was good! Lovely for breakfast. For another $2ish I had the French toast bagel with cinnamon walnut cream cheese. It was delicious as well but the combo seems too sweet... that's on me. Would be awesome pairing with black coffee. Lovely friendly people, great bagels for value, would come back again. read more

Bagels are cheap and the bagel sandwiches are cheaper than anywhere else! You cannot beat the price, service, and quality. The people who work here are super nice and quick with orders. They have a ton of flavors to choose from and you can personalize it however you want! They also sell tubs of cream cheese. I got the lox bagel and it was only $9 compared to the NY $20. It is a solid place for bagels in MA!! read more

Great bagels, sandwiches are made with fresh ingredients, lots of choices. Mostly takeout businesses with just a few tables. I have been there 4x and will go again. read more

Bagels were great! Service was fast and efficient. It was fairly close to the hotel we stayed at.

The bagels are fine, I guess. I go here when Bagel World (the original that HOB ripped off) is busy. My main complaint is that when you order, the women (they all do this) just walk away while you're in the middle of ordering. This is probably the 3rd or 4th time this has happened. And every time I know they didn't hear what I ordered...because they walked away while I was in the middle of ordering. Today I ordered a sandwich and all she got was the cream cheese. Then when she rang me up I had to explain that I got a sandwich. She went back to the cream cheese bagel and threw together the messiest thing you could imagine. I'm telling you EVERY SINGLE TIME this happens. For the love of god, please look your customers in the eye and let them finish their order before you walk away. Not only is it rude, it messes up the order and makes it harder for you. read more

Cute almost past it bagels are absolutely delish going there tomorrow before my flight to get 1/3 dozen to snuggle on plane ,, service quick we hit a everything bagel with chive and onion cream cheese which seemed very popular they had to bring out another batch before I even received my order which was fast also ,,, lady didn't understand my coffee order but quick service and great bagel made us for that oh and the second bagel was a onion , turkey sausage egg and cheese sandwich for under $5 umm yessss go here read more

I love bagels and I love bagels with cream cheese It was cool to see a bagel house inside. It was very welcoming and the girl over the counter was very helpful! I was very excited to have found this place but sadly the bagel was off. I got the everything bagel toasted with cream cheese. The bagel didn't taste toasted, it was extremely doughy on the inside, and usually an everything bagel is savory but this one tasted like salt and lastly they were very skimpy on the cream cheese. Maybe this isn't the place for a single serving bagel but the customer in front of me ordered 3 dozen. Maybe they are better in bulk! read more

So I've been going back-and-forth between house of bagels and also bagel world. Here is my honest opinion. Your bagels are 100% better than bagel world but I kept getting the chicken salad. It was way too salty so I changed it up and got chive cream cheese, which was way too watery so that being said, I can only do three stars. read more

There always seems to be a line. I went on a Sunday at 9:30am and waited about 20 minutes before ordering. If you're just getting bagels and cream cheese (no drinks, breakfast sandwich, etc), you can use the express line. I got an everything bagel with scallion cream cheese. Everywhere I go, the first bagel I try is an everything bagel and compare it to a nyc style bagel. I ate the bagel when I got home, so it got a bit soft. Bagel could have been toasted more; I was even asked if I got the bagels toasted or not. Bagel was a little more doughy and less chewy than I like. It still had a good flavor and satisfied my bagel craving. Bagels are fresh and there was a good variety. The scallion cream cheese was good with the right amount of scallion. Small parking lot so parking was an issue. I saw people parking in the next lot. There are two tables if you decide to dine inside. read more

Amazing sandwiches. The garlic bagel is to die for. I drive over a half an hour all of the time

Grabbed a few bagels, bagel sandwiches, and drinks while in town; was an absolute hit with everyone. I had an onion bagel with scallion cream cheese and an egg, cheese, and kielbasa sandwich on the Asiago bagel, and a caramel iced cappuccino. These bagels were way bigger than I anticipated, so that's something to keep in mind if you want to try multiple things, especially since House of Bagels had so many different bagel and cream cheese combinations that sounded sooo good! The scallion cream cheese was smooth and flavorful, and perfectly proportionate for the fluffy bagel. The egg, cheese, kielbasa sandwich was great as well, the yolk was perfectly jammy and complemented the smokiness of the sausage. Lastly, the caramel iced cappuccino was one of the best coffees I've had in a while, definitely an upgrade from any coffee chain in the area. Definitely worth coming here for a satisfying breakfast! read more

We were so excited to go here for breakfast. We are in town traveling and the reviews and notion of fresh bagels were perfect enticement. But the sandwiches were not made fresh as expected ... they were put together fresh. The eggs and stuff are premade and cold. Then they are placed on toasted/untoasted bagels. They had no flavor on the eggs at all. We got two sandwiches and threw them both away. The bagels were plain gross so what missing flavor was inside the goods of the sandwich were made up with gross outside. We won't go back and hope to save someone else from the same. read more

These bagels are 10/10 and I can't wait to come back and try more! It was busy, but the staff was on their A game. My only complaint is the limited seating inside to enjoy these delicious treats. read more

ugh. not clean inside. bagels are ok. same as the place down the street, which used to be as close to a NYC bagel as you can get around here. read more

Really excellent bagels. I almost passed by this place in favor of the other two bagels spots closer to Reading center, but I've very glad I went the extra distance. House of Bagels bagels are noticeably larger than average, the biggest I can remember getting in MA. The bread is flavorful and fresh, and it keeps well in the freezer. I've been going through a half-dozen that I picked up over the weekend, and every morning, they're fantastic (Tip: Just put the whole bagel in the toaster oven, toast the whole thing, then cut it open when it comes out. Really soft inside, nice crunchy outside.). Also want to call out the cream cheese as being really spot-on. I picked up the japaleno cream cheese and it's exactly as good as I was hoping it would be. I haven't tried the sandwiches, but the pictures here show them to be well-packed and delicious. Staff were great, place was cute. Definitely my go-to bagel place whenever I'm in Reading. read more

House of Bagels is alright, they make bagels that I'd say are on-par and I would mostly go there if they were conveniently located right by me. I visited on a Saturday morning. There was no real wait, it looks like folks mostly come to House to pick up and go. I was in the mood for a sandwich and ordered the garlic bagel with sausage, egg, and cheese. The good: the sausage was very savory and they put a good helping of cheese in there. The price is pretty alright. The bad: the garlic bagel didn't taste like garlic, it almost didn't take like anything except for a slight, almost metallic, flavor? The egg also seemed fake - it was either cooked in a circular mold so it could retain its shape, or it was from a microwaveable set. They were fine, I'd say this is an average, every day bagel place. read more

I haven't written a review in a while, but this place is amazing so I had to write one! My husband is from NY and I used to always have him pick up bagels when he went to visit family as I didn't have any around here that were as good- but now that has changed! Stopped at House of Bagels today at lunch time. It was busy, but not so insane that you had to wait for 30 plus minutes or couldn't find parking like some other local places. I had a Turkey sandwich on a jalapeño bagel. The sandwich was stacked full. And the bagel itself was crisp on the outside with a nice crunch but still soft on the inside. Love all the various flavors they have- got a bakers dozen of various ones to try for breakfast and lunch this week. The service was also super friendly- they even gave me a free bagel with my bakers dozen of one of their unique bagel flavors to try. I will definitely be back! The only negative is that I wish the parking lot was bigger as this place is sure to catch on! read more

I've tried a million bagel shops in and around Boston trying to find something that can compare to a New York bagel (born and raised) and this 100% takes the cake. read more

My favorite bagel spot around! Always get the chicken salad on an Asiago bagel, hits the spot every single time!

Solid local shop making good bagels . Shame they're so far away from me or I would visit all the time

House of Bagels- where to start? Been here numerous times since they opened and they have never let me down. From coming in late just before they close on a Wednesday to pickup bagels and be given a free half dozen of egg bagels (that would be tossed anyway- you rock!) to the tasty coffee- I have no real complaints. Get here early, early, if you can at open- freshest bagels all chewy and fluffy out of the oven. Just this morning I grabbed a bagel and tossed some egg on it when I got home to add to the deliciousness of my sandwich I already had going. Iced cappuccino mochas are awesome. Definitely a place to come to and check out! read more

I really like this place. The bagels are huge and the texture and flavor are fantastic. We were on our way home from Boston and stopped for breakfast. The bagel sandwiches were perfect. We also bought a dozen to bring home and they were all gone in 3 days. Definitely going back again soon! read more

Fast, friendly, affordable, great portions. Not much else to say, these people know how to make a bagel!

No complaints at all. The coconut bagel was perfect, just so good. And the cream cheese was. The only complaint would be I wish there was more cream cheese. The staff was super nice too. read more

Just okay bagels. I'm a New Yorker so hard to impress me. Also I'm not down with veggie cream cheese that has a pink tint to it, so I didn't like that. I asked that the bagel was toasted but I don't this it was. read more

Amazing bagels. Period. House of Bagels is a hidden gem that I happened on by accident upon venturing off the highway. The variety of bagels they peddle is extraordinary. Where else can you get a coconut bagel? Nowhere that's where. read more

Writing this review on behalf of my mom, who recently brought home a dozen bagels and tub of vegetable cream cheese from here! We were so impressed! The bagels are light and super fresh. They have a great variety, including some bagels we'd never seen or heard of before, like cranberry orange. The vegetable cream cheese (my weakness) is soooo good and packed with fresh veggies! I've been putting it on everything! My mom said the service was very friendly, too, and that the interior is very clean and well-kept. We are both eager to go back for bagel sandwiches and coffee! Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

These aren't traditional bagels...they're huge and very bready. But they're very flavorful and the service was kind and fast.

Picked up three dozen bagels for a meeting with a very picky group of people and they raved about these bagels. Fresh and authentic. Will definitely make this a regular stop. read more
