New York Bagels LA has been a staple for me for years, but I tried one of their breakfast bagels for the first time a few weeks ago and immediately knew I'd be back for another. The bagels are soft, fresh, and the sandwich has the perfect ratio of ingredients every single time. It just hits. And honestly, don't let the exterior fool you. Once you get your food, you genuinely won't care what the place looks like because the bagels speak for themselves. So good. read more

It is an inconspicuous place that is squished between two industrial offices. The line moves pretty fast. Bakers dozen is 14 dollars. 50 cents for using the credit card. read more

Card has a $0.50 transaction fee. We visited on a Monday around noon and I have mixed feelings but will still come back as it seems like a local favorite. Affordable bagel sandwiches, count me in. They do have a handful of seats to dine in but it was way too stuff and hot to be enjoyable. Definitely more of a grab and go spot. Breakfast Bagel -cheap and filling! We got it with Pastrami and it was more than expected. We choose Sesame bagel, a bit too toasted on the outside but still stayed soft and fluffy with a slight chew. Lox Bagel -filling yet so refreshing from the alphalfa sprouts and capers. Opted for Everything Bagel. Sadly, this bagel was quite stale. It was hard and dry almost as if it was left out uncovered overnight then toasted. read more

Experience and service may differ on a weekday, but expect a WAIT on a weekend morning. We got there and, ordered at 9:30am and food wasn't ready until 10:05am. We were expecting a quick breakfast bagel run, which it was not. Ambiance was a full shop of people waiting for their orders - quiet, hungry people. Definitely a chill vibe. You could come in sweats if needed! However, the wait is well worth it!! The breakfast sandwich (I got it with bacon, lettuce, and avocado). The bagel was fresh and airy, but not necessarily a NY style bagel with a harder outside. I would come again but plan ahead! Show up a little before you're hungry cause you will be waiting! read more

New York Bagels LA - Breakfast bagel sandwich - Bagels Near Me - Whittier, California

Came around 9am on a Thursday, pretty easy to get parking, the doors on the side and there's not too much space inside to eat so it's more of a to-go spot. Service was quick and easy, they do take Apple Pay which is huge. Ambiance is a little eclectic but that's not the point. Now the bagel is a solid 8.2/10 for $9.50. Bagel was fresh, everything seasoning was a good amount. Could've maybe had a lil more salmon but still good. I'd come back if I was in the area looking for a bagel. read more

They were fresh and I loved the flavored onion cream cheese. My one draw back is they only put toppings on 1 side. I love everything bagels but if everything is only on one side then it is half plain and half everything. More of a personal preference. read more

Lived in Whittier for over 20 years and never was able to try this place. Seems like they were closed every time I drove by and never really thought to stop by for a bagel. Anyway, driving by around 12:30 and saw they were open, so I made a u turn and dropped in. Glad I did! Bagels were not warm, but were fresh. Very Soft and airy. Cream cheese was very light too. Very different from what I'm used to. I wouldn't say they were truly NY style, since they didn't have the chewy outside and less dense, but really liked them. Service was very nice too. Ordered four bagels, but found they snuck in an extra one when I got home :). Very kind. Prices per bagel were really great too. So much better than grocery baked bagels. Only wish I was closer now, but happy to grab a few every time I'm in town. Pro tip: get there early for full menu. As you can see from the list posted, they were out of quite a few by the time I got there at 12:30. I was able to grab a rainbow which is plain but colored, everything with jalapeño and cheese (plus the freebie), cranberry and sesame seed! I prefer plain, so the rainbow and sesame were good alternatives! read more

The breakfast bagels are amazing! I'm no expert on New York bagels but I will say they make a mighty tasty one here.

Their ordering system/ordering time is AWFUL! So inefficient and you end up waiting 30 mins to get a bagel. Also, they have recently started putting so little cream cheese on their bagels...why?! Passing on this place now. read more

Since last week I've been left with a craving for pastrami. Was aiming for Beverly Hills this week but Whittier was a whole lot closer to what errands I'd be running today. The wife found this spot which turns out was a wholesale bagel spot which opened to the public few years back. It's more of a pick up and go kind of spot so the only service you get is the cashier and someone bringing your food to the counter. Still friendly and warm. Quiet waiting area other than the gentle music playing on a display with words for you to sing along. As we wait for our food the place keeps getting warmer and warmer. Orders that have been phoned in are getting picked up so seems the get a lot of traffic. Wait time is long so consider ordering ahead. Not as much pastrami as I was expecting but it does pack a lot flavor. I also like the bagel is soft and fresh. My take away? Order ahead. read more

Excellent fresh bagels, great in person service, and if you'd like to sit and eat, the tables are clean.

Wow these are amazing bagels! I havent had rela NY bagel in NY before bit I would say this may be closest to it. I'd love to try the real one since NY to compare! This small little bagel shop is hidden in this generic run down plaza but maybe thats why it's such a gem. It has the small shop feel with hot heat running through the store, no AC, old fashion signage vibe. Service was decent. The staff, they don't smile. Maybe they're sick of making bagels? Haha well they are amazing at making them! Every morning a great morning for bagels, smile!!! I'm already thinking about the bagel I'll curate for my next visit! read more

They are not selling bagels. Just bagel shaped white bread. Gotta give them credit, their business name brought me in to waste my money on their "bagels?" read more

My brother went out to pick up breakfast for his gf and the family. He picked up a couple sandwiches and some bagels. I can only speak on the sandwich he brought for me which was the cheddar bagel sandwich with bacon for $7. It was a delicious breakfast sandwich and I wanted another one! The bagel was nice and chewy, bacon crunchy, and eggs fluffy. It was a thick sandwich with lots of flavor. I would definitely like to come myself and check out more of their bagels! read more

New York Bagels LA - Cheddar Bagel with bacon sandwich - Bagels Near Me - Whittier, California

//Bagels: Everything Bagel (sliced only), Blueberry Bagel w/ Blueberry Cream Cheese This will probably be one of the best bagels you have. It is chewy and has good flavor. I had the everything bagel, which tasted like all the other everything bagels I have ever had, but the bread itself is what stands out here. The wife had the blueberry bagel with blueberry cream cheese and she fell in love with it. I have been told that the breakfast sandwiches are a must-try, but we will leave that for our next visit. //Notes: The place is very unassuming, but don't judge it by its exterior. Stop by and give them a chance to change your mind about your favorite bagels. read more

Best bagels in the area! Always fresh and outstanding customer service. I would definitely recommend this establishment.

This is it! The Lox Bagel is delicious! As a frequent NYC traveler, it is a challenge to find a quality lox bagel in my hometown for a good price. I highly recommend this place. Just like the NYC, anticipate the wait for great read more

I highly recommend getting New York Bagels LA! I arrived at 630am and there were already patrons inside enjoying breakfast. I ordered a baker's dozen (13 bagels) and got an assortment of cheddar, onion, garlic, and plain. The bagels are so delicious - very nice and chewy with soft texture. The cream cheeses are very flavorful. These were at a hit at our office! Service was fast and friendly. They also sell day old bagels at a very discounted rate on a rack near the cash register. I'll be back to try their breakfast sandwiches! read more

The bagel are soooo good and fresh! Light, airy and chewy! I love the breakfast bagels, your choice of bagel, cream cheese, 2 eggs, bacon / sausage. Their cream are made with fresh ingredients, our family favorites are jalapeño and onions! read more

Bagels were fresh and delicious! I got the breakfast bagel (jalapeño cheese) with avocado, bacon, egg, and cream cheese; it was SO so good! I forgot to take a picture of their breakfast sandwich though lol. The photo I posted here is one I took at home; it's their garlic bagel, and I added my own avocado, bacon, egg, and cream cheese. Still yum!! I also got the variety pack of bagels (I think it was 13 specialty bagels), and my family loved them as well. Service was also great. Will definitely be coming back to this spot :) read more

Instagram @thegourmetsketch review : New York Bagels LA These bagels are chewy and full of flavor, even before they add all the incredible ingredients! I got the strawberry cream cheese bagel for my kids, and it was no wonder they were apprehensive to share with me! The true gem here is their lox bagel I ordered with a jalapeño bagel for a little spice and it's as mouth watering as the pictures. Everything is fresh and they don't skip out on the filling either! If you're in the lower Los Angeles area, come give @newyorkbagels_la a stop by! read more

Almost everything about New York Bagels deserves a 5 star review. The thing that needs a little work is the service. But when you factor in the freshness of the bagels along with the quality of everything made can make me forgive them on the service. Expect a wait when you go here. A definite plus is they will take a phone order but you still will end up waiting. The bagels stay fresh and don't toughen up if not eaten right away. The generous SCMEAR of cream cheese along with the variety of flavors is top tier. The breakfast sandwich on a jalapeño bagel is perfect on any day. read more

What a great bagel spot! Made a 40 minute drive and it was worth it! The bagels are delicious ! I would recommend ordering ahead of time as it might take awhile if you order in person. Parking is ample, and service was good. Inside limited tables but you can still dine if you find a spot. Good pricing as well! I added avocado on my breakfast bacon bagel and it was $10 total. read more

If I could give negative stars, I would. Anyone who buys and enjoys bagels from here probably has never had a real NY bagel in their life. Not to mention horrible service. Took 45 min to get 2 bagels..... Extremely disappointed in this place. Oh AND they messed up the order! The person who called our number had an attitude as well. Great first impression. The taste and quality are mid at best. Please take a look at the photos I included. A picture is worth a thousand words, so you can CLEARLY see how DRY , THIN, and UNAPPEALING it looks. The experience and taste confirmed that I will never be back. Making this at home with store bought bagels is cheaper and faster AND TASTE BETTER TOO. Save yourself the time and money... Note for owner: get some help in the kitchen. Get employees with customer service skills. And find better quality ingredients... read more

This place used to be great, and I was a loyal customer. I've noticed lately that the food quality and service have declined. The older lady taking the orders is annoyed by customers, and I'm sure she sold me an old bagel, or their daily batches aren't what they used to be. Either way, at their current standards, you can get the same quality bagel (or better) at the grocery store. read more

Found this through Yelp and the rating was very high, but our visit was disappointing. Primarily the service was very slow, 25 min to get 3 bagels. Of the those only one was enjoyed and the other two were lacking in flavor. The item that was enjoyed was a bacon breakfast bagel on egg bagel with added tomato. Never had cream cheese on breakfast sandwich but was okay, it added more creaminess beyond what cheese can. Worth trying once but I would pass in the future. The egg and bacon were flavorful and carried the sandwich. Egg bagel was a yellow color, could not discern its flavor with the rest of the sandwich flavors. We really like jalapeño and were disappointed with the Jalapeño cheddar bagel with jalapeño cream cheese. Just so little jalapeño flavor. The last bagel was the pepperoni bagel with onion cream cheese. Good for the bites with pepperoni but lacking in the ones that didn't. Probably a better cream cheese to select than onion to pair with pepperoni, so that's on me. read more

Pretty good bagels here. Great selection. We love the poppy seed bagels. But so far we have enjoyed all their bagels. Fresh baked on site. Located in a industrial park with store facing Washington blvd. We have visited multiple times and bagels are always fresh and tasty. Cream cheese available. Bagel sandwiches for breakfast and believe lunch. Limited seating indoors. Mostly pickup and go. Worth a visit if you like fresh baked bagels. read more
