This was my first time visiting this Poppy's location. I usually go to the one on South Blvd, and I was really disappointed with my bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel. The sandwich was dry even though I asked for it to be lightly toasted with butter -- they forgot to do that. The cheese wasn't fully melted, and the egg was so small it was hard to find. Usually, I get two eggs at the other location. The only good part was the bacon portion. The sandwich wasn't even hot. As a New Yorker, my expectations for a bacon, egg, and cheese are a little higher -- and I've actually had better here in Charlotte. This spot needs to do better. My cheese should have been cheesing. Poorly made breakfast sandwich. read more

I've never left a negative review for a business before. I've been to this location twice, and both times experienced terrible service from the same woman at the register. I was friendly, didn't even ask any weird questions, just ordered a basic breakfast sandwich. Aggressively rude both times. Completely off putting and will not go back again. I didn't even know you get experience such poor service from someone just working a register for bagels, crazy! read more

While visiting Charlotte, we grabbed a dozen bagels from this spot. The area is nice, and there's outdoor seating, but the bagels were a letdown--bland and got hard by the next day. Everyone in our group felt the same. The place is clean, but I won't be back for the bagels." read more

Just experienced the most rude staff while placing a to go order. It's always packed, and there was no clear line between the pickup line and the order line. We were clearly in the wrong place (although every single person who walked in the door asked where the line was), and the woman behind the register rolled her eyes and told us with a fresh attitude that we weren't in the right spot, and then made a comment to her coworker right in front of us. I told what I thought was a manager, who apologized, then said something to the employee, who proceeded to bad mouth us out loud to all her coworkers like we couldn't hear...what an unprofessional and trashy environment. Will not be returning. read more

Bagels aren't my favorite in Charlotte, but the staff is so great! Love the scallion cream cheese. Can always find seating inside or outside read more

A little spendy but solid bagels (coming from someone spoiled by NY/NJ bagels!)! Lots of bagel and cream cheese varieties to choose from.

So good, quick, and convenient! Love grabbing a bagel with spread and being on my way in a matter of minutes. Congrats on keeping the line moving! read more

Got a sandwich this morning and it was served on half cooked dough. Absolutely disgusting read more

Poppy's Bagels & More - Uncooked bagel - Bagels Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

S Blvd location has no butter saying it didn't come in on the truck. 15 people behind the counter and a lousy manager cant bring themselves to a grocery store less than a mile away and buy some butter! A bagel joint with no butter... might as well close for the day then. Has to be the worst management in bagel history! Sadly I think the owners daughter was the manger today.... fire her asap... no butter. Better yet, let me go buy yall some butter to keep your customers happy. Poppy better figure this out or he is gonna lose some customers!!! read more

I placed a pickup order, when I received my sandwich there was a hair in my food. I have called and emailed many times, no one picks up the phone or responds. If I could give it zero stars I would. read more

It's 11:03 AM on a Saturday morning and you can't even order online. I understand not allowing it during the earlier rush hours, but at 11:03 AM you still do not allow online ordering? They want you to park, stand in line, order, and wait. No thanks, hard pass. Try harder. read more

I liked Poppy's, there were just a couple of things that deducted stars for me. It was our first time here. We walked in and the line was kind of chaotic up around the food case. Not knowing which counter we order from, we went to stand right around the drink case and cash registers thinking that was where the line started. We stood there for several minutes until we figured out that was actually the END of the line. I know employees saw us standing there because we made eye contact a few times. I wish they would have let us know the line formed at the opposite end of the room. It was a stressful ordering experience to say the least. We both ordered bagels and water and after we paid, we went to find a seat. I noticed a soda machine in the corner and I remembered, hey we didn't get our water cups. So my husband went back to the counter and asked for water cups, and the employee pointed and rudely said "they're over there". I ordered a California egg sandwich with bacon and it was halfway through my sandwich that I realized there was actually no bacon on the sandwich. I know we paid for bacon to be added. At that point, I was ready to get out of there and I didn't even bother asking for the bacon. The cheese on my bagel was hard and had not melted at all which tells me the egg and/or the bagel wasn't very warm. The bagels were good but my order was wrong and the employees were rude. I think the ultimate fall of our visit was the lack of friendly customer service. I've said it before, I'll say it again. Customer service can make or break a dining experience. I would try Poppy's again, hoping for a better experience next time. read more

Food is good, but the staff .. business must really be struggling as the kid at the cash register with the air pod in one ear, was impressively devoid of any initiative or interest in our order. This is after we stood at the glass counter waiting for someone to take our order - no one did, so we resorted to flat liner. Limited coffee selections. The bagels were, as always, good, but for the love of God - will someone please tell the manager to stop his incessant whistling! I came in to have a conversation with my partner, not listen to his whistled version of whatever was playing overhead. I will add though... their lox and bagel sandwich is very good - one of the better if not best in Charlotte read more

This is one of my go to delis for my breakfast fix on the weekend (and every once in a while when I splurge during the weekday)! Although I typically come for breakfast they have lunch sandwiches and items too. A whole case of fresh salads and sides (made daily) to pair your sandwich with or select on its own! Since covid came around they have setup a texting system for carry out. It's very efficient. You text your order and they send a confirmation saying that your order will be ready in about 15 minutes. They will call if they are out of something and need a substitution so I will typically include those in my text. For instance, this was my last text order: "Carry out order for Ashley. Pork roll (Taylor ham), egg and cheese (american) on an everything OR salt bagel" - Got confirmation it would be ready in 15 mins, showed up in 10 and it was there hot and ready for me! Talk about service! The staff is super friendly and they are fairly quick, but again would recommend texting yourself order in advance ESPECIALLY on the weekend when it can be a little busier. read more

This bagel left me wanting so, so much more. I've had Poppy's many times before and it has gone downhill. Flat bagel, minimal bacon and eggs, and one sad piece of cheese. read more

Poppy's is my go to for fresh bagels and for good reason. The bagels are made fresh daily, tasty and versatile. I am looking to explore more of their menu and just my luck I won a giveaway with CLTDESSERTS and POPPYS so I can indulge even more! On Saturday I took down another one of their stellar bagel sandwiches: Eggs Benedict Bagel Sandwich - bagel of choice (Honey Wheat - which is my fave for anything savory), 2 eggs, Canadian bacon, and Hollandaise sauce - I ordered this sandwich on purpose because I LOVE Hollandaise sauce and had a craving for it. This sandwich calmed the craving as it over delivered. I am writing it up as savory, crisp, and intelligent. Note: Indoor and outdoor dining available Other Recommendations Bagel Sandwiches: Egg, Meat, and Cheese Bagel, Poppy's California Egg Sandwich Bagel Flavors: Blueberry, Cinnamon Raisin, Everything, Honey Wheat, Plain Cream Cheese Flavor (s): Scallion Sides: Poppy's Home Fries read more

This place is awful. it's gone straight to garbage town USA. It's not clean. Staff are so miserable and are rude to customers. I got a classic bacon/egg/cheese on everything bagel and I ate two bites because it was seriously one of the worst things I've put in my mouth. Why am I paying so much money for kraft single slice cheese? Extremely overpriced. Never again. read more

As an ex-NY'er I LOVE this place. This is about as close as you get to a NYC bagel and I miss those dearly. I love the order online function, I can get pretty specific and it is made exactly how I ordered it. Both locations are fine but this particular location I believe has better online options. read more

Flavor if the bagels, just was so blah! The service was horrible, young lady who took my order - gave me wrong sandwich, I had already left. I still can't believe she was allowed to wear this dingy Hoody that was pulled up and wrapped around her head. There was some guy who came off as the lead or the manager walked in from Starbucks for drinks his matter fact attitude that's what it was he was more focused on their drinks from Starbucks and the customers in the store. I don't know if this is a independent franchise or corporate store , but somebody needs to step in. I was leaving, this lady and I both were chatting how horrible it was there. I've had better bagels and service from the grocery store. read more

Poppy's Bagels is a solid four stars! I got their sesame bagel w/ plain cream cheese AND their blueberry bagel w/ plain cream cheese. Without a doubt, the sesame bagel was much yummier than the blueberry bagel. The sesame bagel tasted delicious and had a perfect chewy consistency. They were pretty darn fantastic. The blueberry bagel, on the other hand, was lacking blueberry flavor, had zero sweetness, and was oddly salty? Uh oh. But even if I were rating only the sesame bagel, I would still give Poppy's four stars. As someone who LOVES bagels, I've had a ton. And Poppy's is ever so slightly missing sparkle. But I'll be back because they do hit the spot when you're craving a bagel! Just note, a bagel w/ plain cream cheese costs $4.19. That's not exactly cheap, nor expensive! Oh no! I almost forgot to mention that the workers here are so sweet. They know so many of their customers by name and know their customer's go-to orders. That's super cute! read more

Always loved coming to Poppy's. They have wonderful bagels, and I enjoy trying out their many different flavors of cream cheese. On my last visit, I tried an everything bagel with strawberry cream cheese...much better than I expected! I will be coming back to Poppys. read more

Just landed in Charlotte for my second time and remember having a great bagel my first time in this city but wasn't sure where. Came across Poppy's because of Yelp and started eating my bagel in the car because of such a long morning of travel. I like to keep it classy (and I'm from NY) so I just ordered an everything bagel toasted with butter and cream cheese. And a cannoli. Just finished the first half of the bagel and HOLY SHOOT CUZ. This place is brilliant. You can tell they sell out early and there's a consistent line in and out of this place so... you know you're in the right place when you've come to Poppy's. When it's a long line, how can you go wrong?! IT IS WORTH THE WAIT. I am so thankful for the hard workers here making sure everyone is well fed. I came at about noon and was in and out of here in a timely manner. And it's friday. Happy Aloha Friday, y'all! Let's get it. read more

Poppy's Bagels & More - EVERYTHING BAGEL WITH THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF CREAM CHEESE - Bagels Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

My hubby is from NY so he loves a good bagel shop. We went on a Saturday morning and they were super busy yesterday friendly and fast. If you don't want to wait in line or deal with the crowd you can order ahead. They have all types of bagels, salads, sandwiches and other items for a nice cafe vibe. There's little seating inside and a pet friendly covered patio outside. I didn't get pics but I had a BLT on a honey wheat bagel with walnut cream cheese and onion (wish I had gotten 2!). I'll definitely be back when I'm in need of a quick bite. read more

Employees here are extremely rude - this is the second time we've come and the employees act like it's a complete bother we are here. Today we approached the counter and the employee didn't even acknowledge us just stared at us until we said hi with a smile 3 times. The employee that dropped off our food was extremely short and not mention, our bagels are COLD and untoasted. We will not be returning to this location. read more

I'll start off by saying the food itself is very good. The issues begin with the staff inside. When I walk up to the counter I shouldn't have to start the conversation with the clerk. Idk if they were having a bad day but there was no sense of welcome from him. Also when my bagel was served it was ice cold. I'm probably gonna have to avoid this location going forward. read more

A fresh bagel with an egg is the best and Poppy's nails it. The loxs and cream cheese is a must have as well. Great spot if you want a fresh bagel and support local business. read more

Poppy's Bagels & More - The store - Bagels Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Maybe you can consider me a bagel snob? These were bagel shaped dough made to resemble bagels. Had an everything bagel they should also call barely anything bagel. Service was horrible too. Not sure if the cashier was new or just unwilling to be helpful. The coffee was horrendous. Stopped and got coffee at Circle K after. The only thing good there was the rugelach. I seriously doubt they make them in house but I could be wrong. You'd be better off getting bagels at a grocery store than this place. I think this is my first negative review in 10 years read more

Been going here for some time, expecting it will get better, and it is convenient to our house. Basic bagels, overpriced sandwiches, but the real reason for the rating is the employees. They are all just so sad and depressed. No one is nice, not a thank you or a smile. Even the clientele is depressing. Posh parents letting their kids run rampant...tortured twenty-nothings with the look of utter discontent. Not the way you want to start your Sunday. read more

The BEST bagel and pizza spot in Charlotte. I come here almost everyday. The staff is incredibly friendly and provide quick and great service. I recommend this place to everyone I talk to. read more

This is my favorite quick breakfast place. I text my order in and grab it on my way to work. You order at the counter then pay at the register. They are fairly quick for such a busy place. Haven't had anything I don't like yet. My go to is an asiago bagel with jalapeno cream cheese or egg white wrap "C". The wrap is typically too hot to eat right away but that's fine because by the time I get to my office it's just perfect. read more

Not sure what's happened to this store but it's definitely going in the wrong direction.. The variety of pastries and sandwiches have definitely dwindled, and fountain machine continues to be out of order. The most frustrating part was ordering a bagel with lox cream cheese and being charged $12.00 after being told the prices just went up on flour and water.. Sorry to say I won't be back. read more

Saturday morning I woke up with a hankering for a bagel. Not just any bagel with a slab of cream cheese, - no, I wanted something with egg and meat. So, my husband and I decided to order breakfast via UberEats. We chose Poppy's Bagels. It was our first time. My husband ordered a wrap while I, I ordered a magnificent, delicious, mouthwatering thing they call an Eggs Benedict Bagel. I waited with patience and excitement and hunger for the masterpiece to arrive. And then it came. I opened the bag, pulled out the warm, foil-wrapped bundle, and tenderly began to unwrap it to reveal... a bagel sandwich. I was confused. It was an everything bagel like I ordered, but instead of Eggs Benedict it was egg, cheese, and deli meat ham. It was a counterfeit, a knockoff Gucci bag, a wolf in sheep's clothing. The dream was shattered. My husband received the wrap he ordered. "It's okay. I expected more of... I don't know. It was kinda bland." After the initial shock, disappointment, and grief, I settled and ate what they sent me. It was decent, but it wasn't an Eggs Benedict Bagel. You done messed up A-A-Ron. 2 Stars for getting half of the order correct, and it only being half as tasty as expected. read more

Walking in the line was wrapped around the restaurant. The atmosphere reminds me of a New York bagel shop and actually moved pretty fast. We had our bagels about 20 minutes later. I got the bacon egg and cream cheese everything bagel. It was delicious and filling. Poppy's has Monday-Friday B.E.C. With coffee for less than $6. There are also low fat options. Next time I will probably do call ahead to avoid the line. read more

If you love bagels come and check out this place! Bagels are fresh and flavorful. I always get an everything bagel with cream cheese and lux salmon.

If you are in the mood for a quick breakfast place definitely check them out. It won't disappoint you! read more
