    Fun decorations

    This place is a must stop in Tacoma! I came for the first time while I was visiting a friend who lives near by. The food was delicious, everything we got was great. Their bagels are made fresh every single day and they are only open for as long as it takes to sell out! It has a fun and funky vibe with fun decor and merchandise. Everyone that worked there was so kind and helpful, even though there was a long line they helped me decide what to get and made every customer feel seen and special.

    I see why this spot is so popular! Their bagels are great. Loved the rosemary sea salt bagel. They have fun seasonal flavors weekly. Luckily they had kimchi cream cheese when I went!! They also sell halmoni brand kimchi you can add to your bagel for $1.50. They also have this brown butter miso chocolate chip cookie rn that is amazinggggg. Iced latte was decent! I need to go back asap ! super friendly workers easy street parking aesthetic interior good vibes

    Howdy bagel was good! The line out the door meant they must have something good to try. I'd recommend walking across the street to the coffee shop while you wait to have something to sip on! I wouldn't say it's the best bagel I've ever had, but it was good and satisfied the bagel craving.

    Really good! Bagels are soft, with just the right amount of chew. I was happy to see that they offered a really good variety of made-to-order bagel sandwiches and drinks, which is a step up from all of the popular Seattle spots which are fairly minimal. Both the lox in a box open faced sandwich, and the sausage egg sandwich were delicious and filling. They also sell a lot of craft food products (we picked up a jar of chili crisp), store merch, and fun knick knacks.

    Was finally about to hit this spot, one of the few bagel spots around Northern Washington I haven't checked out. Mostly street parking around here, I never have an issue but I often come in off-hours. Might be tough or need to go a bit farther during rush hours. The vibes here are amazing! Lots of well-curated local pantry goods, merch, cozy indoor seating and extremely warm and friendly service. As for the bagels, they're very OK. Extremely tough outer skin with more chew than I'd like and the interior is fine in terms of flavor and subpar in terms of texture (I want something fluffier or more pillowy inside). I tried a pastrami sandwich there where they add pepperoncinis and it gave it a surprising acidic quality that I liked but probably wouldn't get again. Worth coming for the vibes alone andd to check it out for yourself at least!

    Food was amazing, worth the wait in line. Very kind and quick! Bagel was so crispy on the outside, lots of chewing. Excited to come back!

    Well done! Bagels were very delicious. Today was my first time here, been trying to get here a while and finally did. It seems like the community knows about Howdy Bagel because it was full of energy and the spirit of tacoma. The guest who was in here gave me recommendations, and even recommendations for other places in the community too. Back to the bagels...... all I need to say is please try this place for yourself! My pics will do you no justice, the flavor profile is absolutely amazing! The lox in a box and the Grit city Lox was my absolute faaaavorite! But all in all, everything I got was amazing. Ambiance was cute! Decor and seating in the middle of the city. Parking lot in the back, if you can't find street parking.

    Sausage, Egg and Cheese on Everything Bagel

    We finally swung by Howdy Bagel on a Wednesday morning and were able to get inside without much of a line which is rare here! The atmosphere is very cute and I love the ambiance here. We ordered both the sausage and bacon breakfast bagels and both were super delicious! I personally think their rosemary sea salt bagel is the best bagel they offer and would go back to order just that over and over again. The workers were kind and efficient and the food was wonderful. As we waited the shop began to fill up quite quickly so I'd say typically, expect a wait or even a line out the door to get them. I'd say they are the best breakfast bagels/sandwiches you can find in the area!

    Totally worth the Hype! We went on a weekday and there was a short line. I've been wanting to try this place for a long time. The bacon egg and cheese hot sandwich was the winner! Definitely coming back for this! Fresh made to order. So scrumptious! There is some seating inside. All the customers are so sweet and willing to share their space. What a wonderful morning we had. Americano was great too. We also took home half a dozen of an assortment of the bagels and a tub of the scallion cream cheese spread. All of the bagels have a wonderful texture to them. I can't describe it properly. My favorite is the Rosemary Sea Salt. Head to Howdy!

    I love Howdy Bagel! I never imagined myself dreaming about bagels... It's such a cute, quirky space, with its decor centered around everything bagels and queerness (get it, "everything bagel" ;) anywho...). My tried and true is their lox in a box with their rosemary sea salt bagel. Their Euro-lox tastes luxuriously rich and buttery - not intensely salty and pairs well with, well... everything they have on it - piquant pickled onions, capers, fresh dill, and fresh lemon dill cream cheese that I always end up taking a small tub home! It's relatively a long wait on the weekends where the line goes out the door and down the block, waiting anywhere from 45 minutes to one hour. But I find myself waiting for their bagel sandwiches time and time again! You truly have my heart Howdy Bagel!

    HOT TO GO on Poppyseed Bagel....Chef's Kiss
    LennaDee N.

    Flavor flavor flavor!!! This sandwich is beyond delicious!! It's the Hot To Go on a Poppyseed Bagel and is hands down one of the tastiest bagel sandwiches I've ever had in my life!! Side note: if you like thick cut bacon...eating a sandwich that you can actually taste the bacon....this one hits!! Along with this flavorful deliciousness, the staff and hospitality is top notch!! I even had a clumsy moment this time in and spilled my drink.....they didn't hesitate for a second to make me a new one and help me feel like I wasn't such a klutz in that moment! I truly love everything about this gem of a bagel shop! If you haven't been there, you must go and do your friends a favor and bring them with!

    I've had my eye on this spot for months after seeing it all over instagram, and I finally made the trip. Went in on a Saturday and, yes, there was a line, about 20 minutes but totally worth it! I ordered the Lox in a Box and my bf got the Hot to Go, and both were delicious. The bagels are hearty, filling, and they don't skimp on toppings. You really get what you pay for. The shop itself is adorable, cozy vibes and even some ingredients for sale. Staff were friendly, helpful, and kept things moving. Safe to say we'll be back soon to try more of the menu.

    Curried Clucker (special  menu item)
    Nikki U.

    I LOVE BAGELS!!! I am so sad that there are no bagel place like this in Honolulu. This place is super popular and there can be a crowd. When I arrived it was just before lunch time and the line wasn't out the door yet! It was very fast and they have some cool products to look at while you wait. I got the special $13 curried clucker open faced sandwich. It had curried chicken salad with micro greens and pickled grapes. Pickled grapes?!?! so good. I got it on a rosemary salt bagel that was nice crispy and chewy. I would probably like more micro greens but over all it was so yummy.

My boyfriend and I have stopped by here for coffee and breakfast sandwiches twice before this recent visit and let me tell you that they always taste amazing! We came here again as BECU is currently hosting an event where they let you enjoy a free drink on them and Campfire Coffee was one of the businesses that is participating! It's been a while since we stopped by so we decided to stop by again. I saw on Yelp that dogs were allowed but they are not, however they do offer a generous pup cup! I was greeted by an female employee and she was very professional, kind and patient as I was trying to decide what to get. She also showed that same positive attitude and mannerism with the customers ahead of me as well. The interior is so cozy and they even have a campfire set up which is great for photo ops or just to hang out at. Additionally, they have a corner with shelves of different things to enjoy while you're there too! I went ahead and got one of their seasonal specials: Grandma's Cabin Energy with light ice and my boyfriend got their Peppermint Mocha. I appreciate that she asked me to make sure I liked it before I left but she nailed it, all the flavors came through and it was the right amount of ice! The drink was so good that I forgot to take a picture! Love that they don't upcharge on flavors especially when a lot of other coffee shops do. We also had a conversation about how they have different seasonal menus and look forward making more creative drinks in the future. So glad to see that they are still making fantastic drinks, have stellar service, and offer unique drinks and food/treats.

Nearly every visit, the employees come across as rude, unfriendly, and give the bare minimum in terms of service. Today was the final straw. I ordered a white chocolate mocha, but was handed a regular mocha instead. When I politely said I had ordered a white chocolate mocha, the employee immediately responded with attitude. I handed the drink back and said I didn't want that one, and she asked--again with attitude--if I wanted it remade. When I said yes, she rudely told me that "next time you need to say white chocolate mocha." I responded that I believed I had, and she insisted I didn't. There was no reason for the hostility over a simple drink correction. Customer mistakes happen, employee mistakes happen--but basic kindness and professionalism should still be expected. The food may be good, but the repeated poor treatment from staff makes the experience unpleasant. Management seriously needs to address customer service training or reconsider staffing, because friendly service goes a long way.
