It's Sunday morning I'm hungover and the only thing I wanted was a bagel with cream cheese. Sounds simple enough right? WELL APPARENTLY NOT. The lack of cream cheese is criminal. I also requested double toasted and it was clearly not followed through. The bagel is soft and soggy- inedible. I'm officially in a fight with Noah's bagels. 0/10 recommend. read more

Guy with a nose ring had a horrible attitude. Incapable of conversing with patrons. All for a little sarcasm and sense of humor but this guy doesn't know when to quit. This is one MB family that won't be returning for some time. read more

Either the owner or the manager was helping me out on the register, super nice was helping me out and just asking how my morning was. To drink I had gotten the caramel macchiato, I don't know if it was the beans but, it was probably the best I ever had. Wasn't to sweet, definitely can take the coffee, was very well balanced. I was very hesitant on getting the chorizo burrito because the shop is about bagels but that risk paid off, the burrito was very delicious, the Ingredients were spread out pretty evenly, when other shops won't get that right. Definitely a coffee & bagel for the morning. read more

Quick recap: - Food: Average - Portion size: Average - Service: Average - Environment: Small bagel shop - $: Expensive for what it is - Perks: Outside patio with 3 tables More details: Went there for breakfast. THis is the McDonald of the bagel. The bagels are below average. Not bad, but nothing to write home about (see picture). And, for that price, they are overrated in my opinion. For example, the price of the classic plain bagel with cream cheese ($3ish) is, in my opinion, not justified for an order-at-the-counter fast food. The staff was nice and the food came out fast though. Overall? Overrated. Below average food. Below average environment. Expensive for what it is. Nice staff. read more

Always great service here. They're just the nicest, very thorough with your order, consistently great bagels and sandwiches, and even with covid protocols and everything going on you get that service and quality quickly. - You can call ahead to skip the line. - They surprisingly have decent coffee. - If you like your bagel dark as for double toasted. - Generous with the cream cheese Nothing beats a good bagel and shmear with your coffee. Nothing. read more

I know that there are a string of Noah's bagels in the SoCal area but the service at this particular location warrants a stellar review. I stopped here to refuel with a group of cyclists after a long ride. The manager (Felton, I believe was his name) and employee Cee were so kind! They sent out a bunch of free pastries to our group and told us to have a safe ride. I thought that was extremely kind. Furthermore, they kept the line moving quickly and got our sandwiches made in record speed. This location is also well kept in terms of cleanliness and layout. It's small but there a decent amount of seating. The parking situation looks sticky but hassle free by bike! Not sure about the other locations but I'd stop here again any time. read more

Noah's NY Bagels - Goodies on the house! - Bagels Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

A staple when I visit LA. Love their bagels. Had the garden avocado bagel the last time I was there. It has a kick to it, so be ready for that, but it was delicious. Service is good. Restaurant is clean. read more

First time here. Staff friendly and quick service. My major dislikes is that it's a bagel not a steakhouse dinner but it just looked like they slapped/skimped a bit of cream cheese on and didn't even spread it and tossed the tomatoes on it. Biggest dislike was that when you get charged by card the tip options show up as $1/$2$/$3 doesn't even give you a chance to put no tip or % of 15-20 The approach is just off putting. And unfortunately very common at all places at this point. Will i come again if I'm in the area? Probably if I'm actually craving a bagel but yeah. read more

First time stopping by to this location to pick up a bakers dozen bagels for work. I got here by 6:50 and there was already a line out the door. Besides the wait, the service was efficient and the bagels solid. read more

We both got the farmhouse bagel sandwich and it was delicious! This shop has a few tables outside and we were able to sit out there with our pup! I loved how close to the ocean it was! The staff was exceptionally friendly and they gave our dog a bagel treat! You can tell this place is a staple for the locals. The staff and many guests knew each other by name! read more

My review may be biased as I have been away from fresh made bagels for some time. But the bagels were excellent ... Got the everything bagel and french toast bagel, which didn't disappoint. Iced mocha coffee and caramel macchiato taste better and are better priced than Starbucks. A few cons though. I prefer cream cheese a little more whipped, bagels a bit more toasted, and they were out of the salmon shmear. But hey, great prices and great hours meet the demand. French Toast read more

The service is Great, friendly and welcoming! The place is clean and the display of bagels is very nice! As I have visited other Noah's locations and there is No display? The Bagels are Fresh!!! They also appreciate First Responders! Very few establishments do! I will definitely be a regular customer! read more

It keeps happening. Emphasized wanting it toasted and it's super soft. Don't understand why they don't toast when asked? read more

I had a talk with the employees and manager. I asked because everyone seemed to concerned. Some guy peed all over the hallway and didn't wait til he was inside the restroom. Very disgusting. Manager said it was okay and was giving him the benefit of the doubt. As a woman , that is not anywhere near okay. How is it okay for a man to be showing his genitals and peeing everywhere and saying it's okay, when all your employees are females. He made me feel uncomfortable from how much he was defending the guy that I left, I can only imagine how his employees felt in which were all girls, they didn't look very happy and looked uncomfortable. Manager gave us free drinks, but will not be coming back. How do you not speak up for your employees who are females when they're telling you that's not okay. There is kids everywhere in Manhattan beach especially young little girls so how is that okay for a man to do that. Do better Noah's bagels, manager should not be left alone with female employees. read more

Service was excellent so just want to say that first. They were extremely friendly. The bagels were nice and warm but barely had any cream cheese in them. Not worth what we paid to have a bagel with cream cheese. read more

You can never go wrong here. The expedited service and happy staff make the experience that much better. Suggestion: always ask for a list of the freshest bagels. It makes a difference if you arrive around 11am. Parking is good but keep tabs on the meters since they are always out in full force! You can grab a parking spot for a short while at the corner bank. read more

Noah's never disappoints. My wife in I stopped in today to get a bagel to have with our coffee. The store is clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful. They have a great selection of bagels and an assortment of cream cheese. Parking is easy and they also have patio seating. read more

Came to this place right before the El Porto first time trial surfing. Felton was so nice and offered a free cup of coffee because I came all the way from HB. Love this place!!! I mean it is Noah's Bagel! What can you ask more? read more

I come here for coffee all the time! Try the vanilla hazelnut (fmka as "chelsea") - it's dreamy! The price is also way better than Starbucks or nearby coffee shops. The staff is so friendly too! It may be a chain, but this location sure feels more like a local community gem. read more

I love the bagels here! The pretzel is my favorite, followed by one of their flavors with cheese or one of the many seeded ones. Service is great and the prices are fair, Monday's they offer a deal on dozens so be sure to stop in as they freeze well and can be toasted as needed. Highly recommended! read more

Customer service was great and the bagels were just as good. I got the chorizo avocado sunrise and John helped me out. John was super cool. Update: food was so good we came back for round two read more

Salmon smear, you have my eternal devotion. I could eat a vat of that stuff and not get sick of it... assuming I don't get a heart attack from all that cream cheese. The smear is great. The bagels are great. But the coffee... the coffee is for cleaning toilets. It's always scalding HOT when it comes out of the carafes. We have to let the cup sit for 5+ min before braving the tiniest of sips. Just tastes like scorching hot dark water. Someone needs to train the employees. Tell them that you never make coffee with boiling water. Why? Cause the fragrant oils start to burn and the flavor profiles change. Might as well drink Folgers at that point. SMH Go to the coffee shop next door for joe. read more

Great bagels. They never disappoint. Spinach and cheese and the bacon jalapeño cheese are AMAZINGLY good. The salsa cream cheese is definitely a tongue tingler for sure. 5 star for sure. read more

Bagels are great as usual!! However... (AT THIS LOCATION) when there's a rush it takes a long time to get your bagels. My boyfriend and I ordered our bagels before THE RUSH and MIND YOU THEY DONT HAVE PARKING so we're on the meter. SO BASICALLY IT TOOK EXACTLY 36 mins for us to get our TWO bagels. THEN AS SOON AS WE GOT TO THE CAR, we got A $60 TICKET BECAUSE THEY WERE TAKING SO LONG‍! BUT HEY my bagel was good. (And I ordered the Spinach and Swiss bagel toasted with cream cheese and he ordered the lox bagel!) SHOULDN'T NEVER TAKE THAT LONG FOR TWO BAGELS SO NOAH PEOPLE, please keep in mind that you guys don't have parking and everyone is paying for parking. So move in a timely manner so they don't get $60 tickets! PLEASE AND THANK YOU read more

I've always had really good experiences with Noah's Bagels, not at their stores, but from people who brought their amazing bagel packs with delicious in-house cream cheese selections. So imagine my delight when I found this adorable shop sitting on the coast of Manhattan Beach. Sadly, of the only three or so times I've visited this adorable shop, I've left all times wondering if maybe all the yummy bagels my friends brought to gatherings were actually from elsewhere because those bagel packs showed me just how top-quality they are in terms of their food and service. Their delicious bagels were always packaged neatly with meticulously labeled tubs of cream cheese tucked neatly away and everyone commented how thoughtful the service was. But so far all the times I've ordered something to eat in, the staff were less than welcoming often looking put-off by the customers in line and my bagels or sandwiches came out tough and burned or made sloppily. I most recently had their turkey club sandwich and it was a mess, just a mess. Before I even unwrapped my sandwich, there were sauce and avocado smears just all over and the sandwich refused to stay together. I took my first bite and something went *thunk* and fell out of my sandwich and I saw a chunk of onion the shape of a cube had escaped. I stared at it wondering what uncivilized mind had thought to make a sandwich with onions cut to the size of grapes. Of course, my sandwich wouldn't stay together, whoever made this apparently had precariously stacked sloppily cut ingredients like it's the Leaning Tower of Pisa, then remedied it by wrapping it in paper while their hands are covered in all its spillage. One of my bites actually had one of these onion chunks so big it was like I took a bite out of it like it was an apple and I was having a fit, coughing and my eyes tearing up. My husband next to me wasn't looking happy either with his Pastrami Reuben. He loves pastrami sandwiches and thought he couldn't go wrong with pastrami, but his sandwich too was made sloppily, the innards stacked unevenly and by some wizardry, his bagel was soggy although the pastrami was dry-tasting. Although this shop's location is in the perfect spot on our favorite beach, we stopped visiting because we always left feeling like we made the wrong choice on this foodie's heaven of a street. Our bellies full, we leave staring wistfully at neighboring restaurants. They're not the cheapest meal option there either so it's not as though the bad service can be justified as a result of a budget option. I'm still hanging on to my good feelings for their bagels as they're still excellent. The food in themselves is great. The problem is that the delivery is inconsistent. I know this because some of the pictures on here show some great-looking pristine sandwiches made beautifully with ingredients stacked perfectly. It's just that unfortunately, whoever that great staff is, I obviously haven't met them yet. read more

Very rude cashier. Overcharged us for our drinks. (We were charged for 3 when we only ordered two, and there was just two of us.) Got our order wrong, and they were really rude when we asked for them to fix the order. Their trays are also disgusting. Other than the service, the food is good and the location is great. read more

I wish this was a Western Bagel instead. The variety of bagels aren't impressive, and is it me or each time I eat from here the bagels, which are always poorly toasted when asked, feel and taste like someone sat on them, flat, TOO SOFT/doughy, again and again (maybe thats their thing I dont know) and underwhelming flavor. I ordered the bacon jalapeno maybe there 1/2 a piece of bacon on it, each time. Felton is the man though, and should be nominated and win Manhattan City employee of the year, every year. Its a pleasure just to see him and converse a few minutes each time. their coffee is ok and has free refills, a plus. Stevia would be nice instead of splenda crap. This is 2022, not 2002. Still, not much else to go to for bagels here; from now on probably take to go from Western Bagel in the valley before venturing out to Manhattan Beach, its just night and day better bagels and tastes/varieties. Another poster said same thing, emphasized wanted toasted its super soft (Sally R way to call it like you see it) Think Im done with here, maybe just coffee. GET SOME NEW DARN TOASTERS! ITS NOT JUST ME!!!! read more

Great bagels Plain was fresh and soft n delish The lady DARLENE did a great job explaining and gave me awesome suggestions I got the grab and go bagel box (13 bagels of your choice w/ 2 shmear tubs) with smoked salmon and onion and chive shmear Also if you ASK they can slice all the bagels prior to handing it to you read more

Service - 2 The workers that I interacted with are nice but not competent. The cashier made me tear out the receipt from the machine on my own. He just watched it come out of the machine & said "there it is" as he walked away. He also forgot to give me the cup for coffee that I ordered and the water cup I asked for. And when I asked him for the two, he just pointed to them. I'm not a princess but I think handing things to the customer is not too much to ask for..esp if you're not busy at the moment. Food - 4 The Chorizo Avocado Sunrise bagel sandwich was delicious! A little pricey for a bagel but plenty of ingredients and volume to make up for it. For some reason my bagel had cream cheese smeared all over the bottom of the bagel too. Idk if they put too much cream cheese on the inside but it made the sandwich kinda hard to eat. Would recommend? Sure Coming again? It's out of the way for me so it's not good enough to make me wanna drive up just for this read more

I live close by but I would travel for this place if I had to. The bagels are great, but that isn't why. I stop here multiple times a week because of the people who work there and how happy and kind they always are. Felton (I believe he's the owner) is always there behind the counter working/greeting guests/and asking us how our days are going. He has an innate way to make you feel like he's been your friend for years (and to many customers I'm sure he is). It doesn't stop there. Everyone else who works there is exactly the same. I'd write more but I have a turkey on sesame bagel to enjoy. read more

S/o to fellow vegans, there's a lot of vegan-friendly bagels on their menu with the exception of the obvious ones: (the meats,) Asiago, Cinnamon Sugar, and the Good Egg. Gourmet bagels (that are vegan ): Apple cinnamon, protein power bagel, and the challah roll. Bagel Thins: all are vegan In general, this used to be my favorite place to go to in Manhattan before I went vegan. What's the harm of a few carbs after a nice, long walk at the beach? No need to feel guilty when you treat yourself to this place ‍ Note: it's always best to come here in the morning. They close a bit early so if you're wanting to try this place out, grab your bagel first before heading down to the beach or you'll probably forget :-) read more

I was looking for a quick bite since I skipped out on breakfast, and thought it would be a good time to try Noah's bagels. I was blown away about how genuinely friendly the staff were here, they go above and beyond to make sure what you order is exactly what you want, and that you'd love it. I purchased the farmhouse bagel, which was delicious, I love the bacon that they use here. If you're in Manhattan beach and want a filling delicious snack, this is your place! read more

Used to come here years ago for sun-dried tomato smear. They don't have it anymore. Regular bagel with cream cheese is $3.50 - even Starbucks across the street only charges $1.75. Coffee is ridiculously bad and the place is beat up, borderline dirty. read more

Ohhh this hole in the wall bagel place is so good. Not only are their bagels made daily and are super fresh, they have awesome flavors like a French Toast Bagel!!! I had that today with extra smear (cream cheese) a friggin french toast bagel. You guys have to try it. Also their service is excellent, all employees are super friendly and go out of their way to explain the menu to you. Also guys their coffee is just perfect. read more

Open Salmon Lox Bagel! We drove here just to try their salmon lox and we were not disappointed! Their smoked salmon was so fresh!! Portions are huge so definitely recommend splitting an open salmon lox between two people. Its conveniently in between Peets Coffee & Jamba Juice so you can grab a drink from either place, get your bagel(s) at Noah's then walk down the street to the beach. Perfect plan for a weekend morning. Definitely recommend and will be back! read more

Noah's offers whole wheat options and bagel thins which is a plus. Also, they offer "smearing" your bagel with your choice of cream cheese. If you're one of those folks that like your dressing on the side, you may want to take note of that. Great place and located right next to a Starbucks for my morning coffee fix! read more

I only come here for Felton! I've lived in MB forever but only recently started coming to Noah's. The first time I visited, Felton, the manager, rang me up and I remember thinking I wish I had his awesome and cheery disposition. He needs to write a book on customer service! What a great guy. Every time I come in he is always happy and smiling behind the cashier stand. My go-to thing here is the Power Egg White on Ancient Grain but everything else I've ordered is delicious. read more
