1000/10 - best customer service I've ever seen in my life This is by far the craziest thing that's ever happened to me at a bagel place and how gracious, helpful, and awesome everyone that worked there just speaks volumes about Olmo. I was there today and my airpod case dropped, launching the right airpod. For an hour I searched on the ground with full cooperation and help from the staff but because it was busy I said I'd come back at closing. Using FaceTime and flashlight, we discovered it had literally bounced below the cabinet under a barrier. With the whole teams full help, we managed to scoop them with tongs and miraculously get my AirPod back. I have never witnessed a staff so helpful and more than that - enthusiastic to help. They were so kind, didn't make me feel stupid for dropping it or act unbothered or too busy to help. Everyone immediately sprang into action and even turned off the music so we could find it. From the manager to all the employees, the ethos and general vibe of this place is the best I've ever come across. I don't live in New Haven but I come here once a year and once a year I will 100% be making an annual trip to Olmo in honor of this. Thank you so much Craig, Tori, Jay, Luca and everyone else that helped - this really means a lot to me, and honestly is such a good sign that there are still kind hearted people in the world. read more

Heard many remarkable things about this place, so I decided to skip my spartan breakfast (literally plain greek yogurt and multigrain bread lol) and treat myself instead. -BLT Everything Everything Bagel Sandwich: 5/5 I opted for no mayo and less bacon for health™ reasons, but wow everything was so tasty! The toasted bagel was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The ingredients tasted sooo fresh. -Slice of Cinnamon and Butter Babka: 5/5 This melted in my mouth; it has the softness and sweetness of a cinnamon roll!! I was tempted to get a whole loaf since one slice is $4, but I don't know anyone I'd share it with. Maybe one day I'll come back with people to share an entire loaf with because the goodness is too good to not be enjoyed with company! Staff was super nice and friendly with customers. I can see why people love this place and keep coming back for more. read more

Olmo - -Olmo BLT Everything Everything Bagel Sandwich (no mayo, less bacon) -Slice of Cinnamon and Butter Babka - Sandwiches Near Me - New Haven, Connecticut

Great bagels. Friendly service. It was very crowded on Sunday around noon. It took a while to receive my order, but it was worth the wait.

The best bagels. The workers are so friendly, and are happy to customize your bagel the way you like. I find myself craving this spot all the time. Their bagels are the perfect size. I personally like the everything everything bagel, which has gochugaru. They are seeded the night before baking, so the seeds don't fall off. As you can see from the picture, it's generously seeded, top and bottom. Pair it with some scallion cream cheese, and it's a perfect day. read more

Olmo - Everything Olmo Bagel - Sandwiches Near Me - New Haven, Connecticut

Love Olmo. Very good vibe- busy, but very friendly & efficient, I love their BLT & Breakfast special (bacon, egg, cheese, avocado & spicy aioli). I especially used to ADORE their toasted banana bread. Even my mom said it was better than hers! HOWEVER, I think they've changed their banana bread recipe. It is no longer full of that flavorful deep banana moist goodness. It's still sweet & still has that toasted brown butter crust on the outside, but the inside is the color & texture of a fluffy slice of potato bread. Please go back to the old recipe! It was delicious and decadent. This latest version is just not quite hitting the mark. read more

This place is just awesome. We use the simple Local/Toast app to order which texts the time for pickup. The pickup is seamless and always on time. The BAGELS are just top tier fresh and flavorful. The people / staff are so pleasant. The egg sandwiches are fresh made. An OLMO BEC is a must have. Overall, consistently great and friendly. read more

One of the best bagels I've had. Stopped in the other day and bought a half dozen and froze them when I got home. Just toasted up a sesame and put three fried eggs on the buttered bagel. Amazing. Great bagel flavor and great crunch. Awesome. read more

As I exited 91S and drove towards downtown New Haven on Saturday morning around 9:30 a.m., I noticed a small gathering of people outside Olmo Bagelry. I had never been, but people outside is usually a good predictor of quality. Around 10:30 a.m., I drove by again and there was only one person outside. I took that as an invitation. There were a few mask-wearing customers in the small inside area, but an Olmo employee helped me right away. I ordered an Everything Bagel with Veggie Dill Cream Cheese. There is no seating area inside at least presently. After you order, you walk outside and they bring your order to you. Hence, the small gathering I saw earlier. Neither the bagel nor the cream cheese imitated other businesses' food. The bagel exterior is darker, and the oven imparted a nice flavor. The veggie cream cheese was a pale pink shade. I'm not sure what veggie or ingredient made it that color. If you made me guess, maybe a bit of beets? Are beets even a veggie, or are they a fruit? Nobody ever accused me of being a horticulturist. In any event, I liked the flavor. I liked the texture. I liked the service. Five Stars! read more

Delicious bagels, awesome service - what more can you ask of these folks? Well, our friends at Olmo are relentlessly seeking perfection in the form of a bagel. A few thoughts: breakfast would be just another meal without an Olmo toasted everything bagel with bacon eggs and cheese. Lunch would be uninteresting without the Olmo Banh Mi. You can't have Olmo for dinner; state law prohibits three meals a day there! J/k My favorites: Okonomiyaki - Roasted Cabbage, two fried eggs, Japanese BBQ sauce, and everything everything spice. I could eat this every day of the week. Hidden gems - Holiday/XMAS platter - lox, bagels, tubs of schmear, OJ, vegs - perfect for XMAS morning breakfast. (and awesome catering, too) read more

That Okonomiyaki is serious greatness. If you're doing regular bagel make it a cacio e pepe with spicy scallion schmear ! read more

Olmo is a gem and was conceived because of the lack of delicious bagels in New Haven. For me, the closest credible bagel shop is Shefs in Cheshire. It's a haul to say the least. Today, I checked out Olmo, located on Trumbull Street and Whitney Avenue in New Haven only about 12 minutes from my house (Shefs is 40 minutes) This is not a quick-service -restaurant kind of bagel, it's so much better. It's crisp, baked darker than most and chewy. I'd say it's a step chewier than an H&H bagel from NYC. My bagel was delicious enough for me to take half a dozen home. The co-founder, Jason, is an interesting guy committed to serving the best bagels in the land. I'd say, he's on track. He maintains high standards, exemplified by his attentive and fun loving staff and quality food. I think I paid $12 for 6 which seems to be a fair price considering he has his flour milled locally and uses top notch ingredients. There's a full menu as well and Jason boasts of a very talented chef in the background making things happen. Just one thing, if you're a geezer like me and don't like Stevia (the only non sugar alternative they offer), bring your own Splenda from home read more

Olmo - Chewy dense sesame bagel - Sandwiches Near Me - New Haven, Connecticut

Finally! This is a deliciously crafted, authentic in the traditional sense, chewy yet airy bagel. Slight crusty shine to the exterior and if seeded, are generously covered and stay put. Do you know when you just know? From that very first bite of my toasted sesame seed bagel with scallion cream cheese, I just knew. Heavenly. We are famously passionate about pizza here New Haven and rightfully so. When the bar has been set that high, where do you go from there? Bagels are a topic of much controversy here also. Being close to New York, that's the standard of style. This bagel exceeded my expectations and ticked off all the traditional boxes, and yet, it was even better. Let's talk Schmeer! Thick and rich and fluffy with all the traditional flavors, but the spicy scallion is a favorite. Husband had an everything bagel toasted with egg and pastrami. He said the pastrami was thin and very tender. Staff is proficient and very friendly. The barista is a talent as well. Strong, flavorful coffee made for an exceptional cappuccino. Order online to make it ultra easy for either pick up or delivery. Order in-house at one of the many kiosks for ease. No cash! There are a smattering of outdoor tables if weather permits. read more

They have the best bagels and the friendliest staff in New Haven. My favorite is the "Cacio e Pepe" which is very similar to an Asiago bagel, but even better. It's outstanding. read more

Hands-down, the best bagels and breakfast sandwiches in New Haven!! And the staff is superb,love them!! Service is always quick, efficient...you're in and out!!! read more

Olmo never disapoints with all of the innovative flavorful options! The staff is always ready with a warm & friendly welcome. Most recently we tried the Babka which was fabulous! We love sitting outside when the weather permits. read more

I had a blast at Olmo's first Pizza Bagel Pop Up last weekend. It was actually my first time there too. The staff were super awesome and friendly. We tried the pepperoni pizza bagel and the veggie pesto one. Both were so delicious and the bagels were perfect. We were outside on the street with tables because there was a block party going on. That was also really fun too. I'm definietly looking forward to seeing the inside of Olmo and going back to try other bagels now. If they do the Pizza Bagel Pop Up again- definietly check it out. Super fun! read more

Olmo - Bacon egg and cheese - Sandwiches Near Me - New Haven, Connecticut

The best bagels in new haven. About the same price I think as breugger's, but so much better. Plus, I think this is not a chain so good to support small businesses. The bagels here are amazing. The everything everything is perfect for those who want even more on their bagel. My personal favorite is the health but bagel. So light and fresh yet delicious. I have tried most of their vegetarian sandwich options and each have been amazing. An egg and cheese with spicy Mayo is also a go to. The egg is perfectly cooked. Everyone should check this place out! Sometimes they are super busy and the wait is long or they run out of bagels, but it's worth it. (And I'm from nyc so I'm a snob about bagels) read more
