I was so hyped to try this place, my wife found a write up for it in a AAA magazine, and as folks who just love us some bagels, we hit this place up and tried a few of their bagel sandwiches. Even more exciting to see that they had Taylor ham on the menu! We ordered a Putz (Taylor Ham, Egg scramble, cheese, ketchup) on an everything bagel, and an Oy Vey! (Premium Acme Lox, chive schmear, capers, sliced tomato, pickled onion, salted cucumbers, sprouts, fresh dill). We each shared half of the Putz and Oy Vey! I have to say this was highly underwhelming. I understand that this place gets busy, and did not mind waiting for quite some time to get our order, but I expected the Putz to be hot and it was not. The Taylor ham was hardly cooked, while I guess this is a personal preference, I enjoy frying it as it's supposed to be! The Oy Vey! was very sloppy, the lox was not very tasty but did not taste "off". Both sandwiches were very light on the protein which would be more forgivable if the bagels themselves were delicious, they just were not. Overall, I think that the price point is high for what you get here, and there are better bagel spots not too far away. I really expected a lot more from this place. read more

We have been going here every year on our vacation so sorry so sad but sometimes has changed the quality of the food rated poor

This is laughable. Visiting some friends in Carlsbad. Decide bagel sandwiches sound great. See the picture and description of the chutzpah bagel sando. Looks great right? Half a pound of pastrami. That would be 8 ounces for you math challenged people. Imagine my surprise when I get the sandwich with a paltry 2.4 ounces of meat. That's probably generous since there is mustard on the meat that weighed also. Certainly, I could understand if it was remotely close. 2.4 ounces when you advertise 8 is absolutely criminal. read more

My girlfriend and I are visiting from the east coast and this is arguably the best bagel we've had in our lives. I had the Meksikaner, finished it in about 2 minutes, and the sandwich was huge. My girlfriend got the everything bagel with cream cheese, perfectly toasted and cream cheese ratio was good. I'm never one to leave reviews but this place made me. Highly recommend read more

My draft review from a few weeks ago: Outstanding breakfast bagel sandwiches. The best I've had since visiting New York. I had the ham, Swiss and egg on the angry everything bagel and it was so good I can't wait to come back and try everything else on the menu. I dont know how they cook the egg but I like the tenderness. After today: Extremely disappointing breakfast bagel sandwiches for our group of 4. Spinach bagels are usually my fave but not here or at least not today. I suggest management try the spinach bagels at 101 in Oceanside and compare it to what they are serving. The sausage patty wasn't anything special and neither was the latke. I think it was supposed to have chipotle aioli but I didn't see or taste any. It was also supposed to come with peppers and onions and there were no peppers and one little onion slice. I will definitely be hesitant to come back after such drastically different experiences but maybe someday. read more

Overpriced. Plain and simple. With the cost of food today- it's about value. Ordered a tuna salad bagel midway through asking to add a piece of cheese. $1.89 for one slice of cheese? That equaled 15% of the cost of the bagel and that's absurd. On top of that, I got a "whisper" of bland tuna salad- no value for the price. I've been here a few times now and my suggestion is stick to the breakfast menu but be warned they burn their bagels -a lot. No quality control here. It's a very popular place and the bagels are decent (so hard to find good bagels in SD) as is the cream cheese and lox but their sandwiches are not worth the price- no value and overpriced. I wanted to try the pastrami sandwich but not at $18! I'm not interested in a half pound (for $18 anyway) can you make a lighter version with a lighter cost? I get that this is a specialty meat but $18?? I want to like this place but most often feel ripped off with no value for what I pay for. With inflation I know costs are high but almost $2 for a slice of cheese? C'mon. Inflation is killing all of us- if you are going to charge those prices make it worth our while. If you want to try this place get the bagels and toast them at home. Unless you like burned bagels. read more

Ordered breakfast bagels after a friend raved about this place while we were visiting. We ordered online and waited only a short period of time to pick up our order when we got there. The bagels were big, fluffy and fresh. I was so excited to see sundried tomato cream cheese on the menu, and was not let down when i dug in to my bagel. The bacon on my sandwich was perfectly crisp. I was so pleased and will visit again when we visit Carlsbad again. read more

Delicious bagels with fast & pleasant service. Vibes were good but lacked a restroom and much indoor seating, but overall a good experience.

Second time went here just to give it another chance. The first time the service was slow and took a bit to get my bagel which is why I have not been in a rush to come back. 2nd time with nobody there nothing has changed. The vibe not very friendly and my experience felt like I walked into a fraternity. The music, lackadaisical effort, let's just say it seems like this place operates for the workers and their friends. The bagels are large and have great variety but it's okay overall. I recently have been to the amazing pop up bagels and let's just say I won't be back. read more

Best time to hit Inglourios Bagels on Sunday is just after they open at 7 am. Was in and out yesterday in 5 minutes. Bagels were warm. Staff was very helpful. Bagels and smear were delicious. read more

The bagels once you actually get them are good..... They're fine. But the wait? The service? Not worth it. They hardly even look up so you have no chance to ask anyone anything. We have ordered a couple times and honestly on a Saturday Sunday.... Ordering online, we were stuck waiting an HOUR for plain bagels with cream cheese. The first time we came, they also made a mistake on our order and were like "well..... Is it OK or do you need us to change it?" Well, it wasn't what we ordered? I figured maybe it's the fluke, they were super busy....we will give them another chance..... second trip, worse than the first. Rude service. Literally 50+ minutes to get 1 sandwich and 4 plain bagels with CC. Idk why they also prioritize walk ins over online orders since you would think that would help cut down on the line outside but it's actually wild. I think that they like to move slow so they can look really busy so people think it's really good but 1000000% not worth the hype. After we got home and opened the food, bagels weren't cut, some were totally burnt. Never will go back, would never recommend. read more

Far and away the best bagel in north county, maybe all of San Diego, but I haven't tried enough. The vegan cream cheese is also divine. Prepare for a wait and sold out items later in the day. read more

Very shocked at how good this place was, I love bagel spots and this one hits even harder than my local bagel spot. I'm not from the area but if you are around here definitely check is place out. read more

Absolute hands down best fresh fluffy fat bagels around. We love going on weekends for a breakfast sandwich

I used to like these bagels until today. I asked the girl working this am for a plain bagel with veggie cream cheese and a sausage patty on it and very lightly toasted I got home to eat it , I only live two blocks away. My bagel came out extra toasted to where it was so crusty it was brown and falling apart, my sausage patty was very cold. So she didn't cook the sausage which is odd and the bagel was not eatable. To spend over 12$ on a bagel.... Come on. read more

Love their branding. We've been to Notorious Burgers. Now this one and it's so fun to see they are coming up with a pizza extension. I saw someone post these bagels on IG so we thought to try them. FOOD Everything bagel w jalapeño and cream cheese - This was a solid bagel. Gave you the heat you needed but also had the cream cheese to cook it down. #2 - I probably would have liked the bacon to be a little more crisp but it was fine. This sandwich was slightly too salty but had good flavor for the most part. If we came back, I think just sticking a regular bagels and cream cheese for us. read more

This bagel shop will not disappoint but be ready to wait up to 20 minutes for your order. It was 10am on a Sunday morning and this first thing positive I noticed was it appeared to be a favorite for Carlsbad law enforcement. Good omen in my opinion. We order a sesame bagel with scrambled egg & bacon and a second was a #6 with cream cheese, lox, onion & tomato on everything bagel. Taste of both excellent and really nicely toasted. Loads of other choices on bagels. I am originally from NY and they wish to copy NY tasting bagels they need to make them a bit thicker to match them. My everything bagel had loads of seasonings on top . I also had a Mayan Mocha which great. No seating inside but there are public tables outside which we were very lucky to grab one. All in all it was a great breakfast but the wait I thought was long as I had almost finished my Mocha by the time the bagel order came out. Might be different on weekday so may try again? read more

Shoutout to Johnny for the exceptional service! He was polite and attentive. He made our day :)

After our 2 tries here and reading all about the story of how this place came to be. . . the bagels now 2 times were "just okay". Price aside (which is astronomical) they were overbaked (both times all kids) and if I did read about this place I would not have believed they were made traditionally by boiling the dough let alone with water modified to mimic NY water. read more

Amazing food! They are busy but the service is fast! Best bagel shop ever tried! Will definitely come back again

The best bagels that I've had in a really long time. The service is excellent and the kids who work there are always professional. They tend to get very busy on the weekends, so be prepared to wait at least 20 minutes to get your order if you are getting a sandwich. I just bought half a dozen bagels and froze some of them. They taste just as soft and fresh as the first day. I'm so glad to have this place in Carlsbad read more

Great name, great menu. They have good bagels and really nice bagel sandwiches. Call it a 4.5 but I'm rounding up. We tried a chocolate bagel with Nutella added (because why not?), a Shlemiel (egg, bacon, cheese, tomato, aioli on a bagel), and a Naches (lox, chive creamed cheese, tomato, lettuce, red onion, and capers). In Yiddish, a shlemiel is an unlucky person and naches means joy or love. All of the bagel sandwich creations have Yiddish names--I had to look up their meanings. The Shlemiel and the Naches were both very good and very filling. You're not going to leave hungry. The Naches is a sloppy mess, in a good way, and I'd only suggest losing the lettuce. It's weird and not necessary. But otherwise, the lox was fresh and everything tasted great. No complaints about the chocolate/Nutella bagel, either. There's really no seating inside but there are quite a few tables outside. The tables turn over pretty quickly so be patient. The inside of the shop is very clean and attractive. Are these the bagels in the world? Well, not necessarily, but they are big and fresh and very nice. This place is pretty popular and I'd come back anytime for their great bagel sandwiches. read more

Delicious fresh tasting bagels! Love the lox specialties!! Slightly pricey but def worth it

I had to visit this site after it was featured on local news (Fox and CBS), and I was not disappointed. There are plenty of bagel sandwiches that I need to try, but I opted with the classic lox. Lox #7 Oy Vey! ($16.50): I chose the everything jalapeño bagel. This was a messy sandwich, but it was gratifying, 8/10 rating. I couldn't distinguish a NY bagel from the West Coast style, probably because of all the fixings. They are generous with the sandwich filings. My friend, who was born and raised in NY said the bagels are authentic here. Service was standard. There was always a line, but the wait was short. I'll have to check out the other four sandwiches that I've found intriguing on the menu. read more

WOW. Amazing bagel spot. Not even kidding when I say maybe the best breakfast bagel I've ever had? The menu is pretty extensive and I definitely want to come back to try more of the options (there's like 5 or more different lox bagels!!), but I love that the coffee options were simple with just drip and cold brew. Food came out pretty fast and there was plenty of outdoor tables. read more

These bagels are worth trying. They are better quality than a chain bagel shop. The everything bagel was particularly good (lots of seasoning) and the mixed berry cream cheese was fun to try (light and fresh). We paid ~$60 for a dozen bagels and cream cheese, so it's definitely a splurge. The location is small and it gets crowded quick with a line out the door. The efficiency could improve with an adjusted system. We stood in the shop for about 10 mins while the entire staff had their backs turned working on the assembly line not addressing the line of people (I'm assuming for online takeout orders?). Overall, we waited and were taken care of in less than 25 mins, so not that bad! read more

Delicious bagels. The guys running this shop are super friendly, pay attention to the details, and are offering some great bagels. I ordered an eggything bagel which is my favorite bagel of all time when it's on any shops's menu. It's an egg bagel with everything seasoning and I had it with chive cream cheese. First of all, the bagel had the perfect chew to it, a great mouth feel that made you work for the first bite but then was soft on the inside. The seasoning was superb; poopy, sesame, salt, onion, garlic all blended nicely and got stuck in my teeth as they should. Then the chive cream cheese was ooey gooey delicousness and had the perfect amount with each bite. Solid bagel and quite possibly the best in San Diego county. read more

Pricey bagels, but they are yummy. The worst part is the service - the guys there have been impatient and short in their communications every single time I come in. Makes me feel like I am bothering them when they are dead. I live walking distance, and do not come in due to the poor service I receive every time. Bummer. read more

Go for their Angry Everything!! It's a non-forgettable delight in the morning!! Just enough heat to let you know it's angry. Toast it twice and add an inch of cream cheese. Mmmmmmmm, it helps me the angry into just mad. read more

Ordered two blueberry bagels at 10 am 7/15. Got in the car and both bagels were burnt and disguised with heavy cream cheese. They were disgusting. my child refused to eat it. What a waste of money. I have been here many times and when you order a sweet bagel, they use the same knife that they use on the savory garlic bagels so your sweet bagel ends up tasting like garlic. Gross. read more

Inglorious Bagels never disappoints. The bagels are fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. A special shout out to Isaiah, the manager, who went above and beyond to make our experience exceptional.

needed quick breakfast while we were in town for a party. best choice was picking this place. I am bagel type of girl - 10/10. Everything i had was delicious and would order it again. Strawberry Bagel with Fig Cream Cheese - so good. would have ordered some to take home if the weather wasn't so hot. Breakfast sandwich #3 on as Everything Jalapeño Cheese Bagel - no complaints. portion is huge, glad I shared. Also took a bite of #38 - the caramelized onions were SO good. would highly recommend adding that to any sandwich. Quick and efficient service - can't wait to get the chance to go again! read more

Delicious bagels and amazing service. Our new go to bagel shop! Thank you Inglourious Bagels!

I don't usually eat bagels but if and when I do, it's ALWAYS inglorious bagels. They are the freshest bagels and I am shocked no one else does an everything jalapeño bagel (best bagel I have ever had). Johnny helped me out today and he was not only so kind but also so efficient. Look no further than this bagel shop for north county San Diego!! The only bagel place I trust to get homemade Jewish/New York bagels. read more
