    Variety of different bagel types to choose from
    Harold S.

    This is a modest little bagel place and they have reasonable prices. The bagels are large and most unusual they do not have a hole in the middle. The dough is light and tasty. They have a variety of different bagel types to choose from as well as various sandwich offerings. There are only two tables inside the place should you wish to eat there. It would appear as though most people coming here are taking out.

    Came here for a breakfast sandwich. I ordered a south of the border sandwich with a plain bagel. It has ham, egg, cheese and jalopeno cream cheese. My sandwich was ready in less than 5 minutes. I should have asked for it cut in half because it was quite messy and the egg and ham kept sliding off of my bagel. It was delicious but extremely messy especially to eat in the car. The bagel was a bit darker than I would have preferred. It looked more like whole wheat with how dark it was toasted. Still a delicious sandwich and kept me full my work day.

    Basic bagel sandwich with hair

    This is my second time finding hair in my basic bagel sandwich and who knows how many other times I have swallowed a piece of hair from these people who are working there. I am so disgusted! the first time I was very nice about it. I called. I let them know but this time. I'm not being so nice. I'm just taking a photo and posting it on here I'm so disgusted. I literally want to vomit! Please put some hairnets on please and shave your face please because this is disgusting and unacceptable/unsanitary. I'm not trying to be mean im posting on here so other people are aware! who knows how many times. Other people have swallowed a piece of hair without even checking or knowing it. Please retrain you employees!

    Great service. Easy ordering. Bagels are so good, great portions, filling. Get your moneys worth. Support this business! There's a couple tables and chairs but it's a good quick stop and go.

    "western basic" sub cheddar chz, on an everything bagel

    i can confidently say that my first visit to Johns today was the very first time i've had a bacon egg & cheese outside the state of ny or nj and been REMINDED of the past ny & nj ones i've had. The quality and flavor makes it totally worth the purchase, which feels rare nowadays. Thank you John whoever you are!!!

    Had a great experience with attentive service that let me leisurely decide on my order. I got the garden special. The sandwich came in a generous portion, though next time I'll opt for the garlic bagel over the salt bagel, as the latter was a touch too salty for my taste. The ingredients were all fresh and flavorful. My one piece of advice is come early in the day because by late noon, a lot of the bagels are sold out. Sadly the garlic bagel was sold out by the time I got there at 1:30pm. Definitely looking forward to coming back!

    The New Yorker Sandwich

    The New Yorker bagel was pretty good and gave me some flashbacks to New York bagels it looks like they have a lot of bagel choices available, but when I went around 10am, they only had like a third of their bagel choices available. Their service was pretty speedy as well and I don't think they ever get too busy, even though I feel like they should

    used to come here when I was in high school and it's still delicious quickly made bagels and sandwiches like I remember. I do wish the prices haven't increased the way they have buttttt I get it, they are also trying to survive inflation. If you're near by, for sure give this place a try

    BEST BAGEL PLACE EVER! My boyfriend and I love this place. We are a regular here. We had tried so many things from the New York bagel, Jalapeños Jack, onion bagel, the cream cheese with different flavors as well! Everything was so GOOD! The service was also always great! They are always so nice. They have a couple tables inside and one table outside. Overall, would recommend to people to try this place! You won't regret it.

    While heading to a training I had a craving for Lox so I did a quick yelp search and saw John's Bagel was on the route and made a stop in. Immediately you walk up and say wow this was a donut shop turned bagel space. After a quick scan of the menu I saw it the New Yorker sandwich which was the lox cream cheese sandwich I was craving. Now I will say that this was in no way a New York bagel or sandwich but it was very tasty. The bagel as other reviews stated are not traditional bagels in fact as I took that first bite I got more of a focaccia texture. Either way the flavor of the Smokey salmon, crisp tomato and smooth cream cheese satisfies the craving I had.

    Dido to the last comment about shipping the jalapeño jack bagel out of state? I am craving them and cannot find anything like it where I'm at :(

    Would you ship your bagels? I would do anything to get my hands on the Jalapeño Jack Bagels.

    Do they have vegan bagels?

    Besides our chocolate chip, cheddar/onion cheddar, jalapeño cheese/sausage and oatmeal raisin (contains honey) the rest of our bagels our considered vegan. They all contain yeast FYI . Our cream cheese is not vegan. But we do have peanut butter,…

The Dutch crunch bread type was very interesting and a must try,if you have never had it. I had everything on it. Mustard, mayo lettuce, tomato, pickles. Not sure what else was in it other than avocado but it was amazing. Customer service was much to be desired and the dude with the long dirty blonde hair definitely needs some lessons with explaining kindly rather than just pointing at a sign. This dude shouldn't be at the front line taking orders,who knows how much business he's losing as a result of his public social skills. Placing an order. Speaking with this guy was a very unpleasant experience. The owner needs to record the interaction and reactions of the employees and customers to see what's going in. The food? Fantastic! Couldn't recommend a better place to order a sandwich from. Service not so much. Would have given at least a 4 ,but again customer service skills is lacking here. The sandwich maker with the brown short hair is really nice and pleasant to interact with. Maybe ted Nugent should watch how he interacts with the public. Update: Mgmnt got back really quick and remediated the issue with the employee and hopefully improves over time. Sometimes,that's all it takes to get the full 5* stars, thanks Steve!

After entering, we stood waiting for approximately five minutes without being greeted or acknowledged. No one informed us that we needed to order using the kiosk until we asked. I ordered a turkey bacon sandwich, but when my order was prepared, it was missing the bacon. My husband calmly approached the manager to explain that we didn't feel like valued customers because of the lack of service. Rather than listening or trying to resolve the issue, the manager became confrontational. He compared my husband to his grandfather and stated that he "wouldn't even let his grandpa talk to him like that." His tone and behavior escalated the situation instead of helping to de-escalate it. He then told us we could leave, despite the fact that I had just spent nearly $20 on a sandwich that was made incorrectly. As we were leaving, the manager continued yelling at us and making upsetting comments. In a moment of frustration, I threw my sandwich back toward the counter, and it struck him. He immediately pulled out his phone, put the camera directly in my face, and repeatedly stated that I was "going to jail tonight." When the police arrived, they indicated they were familiar with this manager from previous incidents and even suggested that I contact corporate regarding the way the situation had been handled. I fully acknowledge that throwing the sandwich was not the right way to respond, and I regret that action. However, I believe the manager's conduct, lack of professionalism, and repeated escalation of the situation were completely unacceptable. A manager should be focused on resolving customer concerns, not provoking further conflict. I hope this incident is taken seriously so that other customers do not have a similar experience.

    An ABSOLUTE GEM in Simi. Pastries, drinks, atmosphere,…read moreservice... all on point. I'm obsessed with this place. You walk in and it feels like you are transported to a Ghibli dream cafe. Small and cozy, cute cottage-core hedgehog figurines with mushrooms adorn the entrance table where all things hedgehog are displayed. It's the small touches here that show what thought was put into this place; like fresh strawberry mint water (or other fruit water offered) and always soft French jazz bossanova playing in the background. The service is amazing, despite never seeming to have a lull- there's always a good stream of people at any hr of the day filtering in. So let's get to the food. My family has been multiple times now, and Every pastry was a sheer delight. Not too sweet! Just right.

I'm not sure if someone called out that day, or if it was something else entirely. My party did their best to lighten the interaction. She continued to express that anger throughout.

I tried to order a sandwich listed on the specials board near the pastry case, only to be told it was only available Monday through Thursday. I'm not sure why a specials board would list items that are only offered during the week. On a positive note, a gentleman on staff was kind and genuinely helpful. His service made a real difference. Plus the customers are very friendly. As for the pastries, I appreciate the concept of blending French and Japanese techniques. It's an approach I often explore in my own pastry and confectionery work. It is a perfect match! As a small business owner myself, I would never treat a guest the way we were treated. I would not allow my staff to behave this way either. I understand everyone has an off day. Still, it's important to remain professional with guests regardless. I would have been willing to try this place again if it she hadn't seemed so bothered by us ordering three pastries, a black coffee and tea. Like I said, maybe it was an off day but you can still be cordial and professional.
