Came here for the Dine LA deal. You get a choice of a croissant (I chose the pain a a chocolate),…read morehalf size of a sandwich, and a half loaf of bread (I got the crackle Rye) for $25. Price wise, the chocolate croissant is typically $7.25, half size of the ricotta bagel is $7.50 (the other sandwiches and bagel sandwiches cost more, but I was craving something fruity), and the half loaf of cracker rice typically $18. So, you do save some money with the deal, but it's only worth it if you will truly use the half loaf of bread. Taste: the chocolate croissant was nothing special. For the ricotta bagel, the fruit and mint were a great combo, and the quality of the fruit was great. We ricotta burgers was tasty, but the bagel itself was nothing special. It lost its crispiness after I started eating it. The rye bread was solid. Overall, I would prefer to go to other bagel shops over this one, but I'm glad I was able to try it

I was finally in the area early enough to grab breakfast, and I'm so glad I did--this is easily one of the best spots for an early morning meal on the Westside. I've visited a few times now, and the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese breakfast bagel on a Jalapeño Cheddar bagel is fantastic. It's absolutely packed with jalapeños and loaded with cheese--it really hits the spot. The bagel itself is the star of the show: perfectly toasted, dense, and satisfyingly chewy yet soft. The eggs are cooked well, and the bacon is always perfectly crispy. On my second visit, I tried the Garlic and Onion bagel, which was also excellent. I've sampled a variety of their options, including salt, egg, and everything bagels, and every single one has been consistent in quality.I also picked up some bagels to-go for my son. Although he wasn't feeling well enough to eat them, my co-workers were more than happy to enjoy them instead! I'll definitely be heading back soon to grab a fresh batch and some strawberry cream cheese for him to try. I've officially found my new go-to bagel spot on the Westside!

It was served open-faced, which was a new experience & packaged perfectly for me to enjoy while on the go in the car. I wasn't expecting to pay $19 and it's understandable after appreciating every single bite! I felt pretty content from the sandwich and recall having a very light meal that evening. The team was friendly & efficientcient which always feels good! I appreciated being welcomed in a new establishment. Looking forward to splurging & enjoying next time!

I also got an Everything bagel with sausage, bacon, and egg during another visit and this savory option was incredible.

Courage Bagels is a cute little corner spot with a bumping line even 30 minutes before closing. Despite having just had lunch, my friend and I decided to stop by and pick up some bagels. I ordered the Alaskan roe bagel as well as a plain onion bagel with a side of cream cheese. There is no seating inside, but they have a cute covered outdoor area and a water stand. The bagels are phenomenal. If you go inside to use the washroom, you'll see the fresh bagel-making in action. They have a whole old-fashioned assembly line with the orders hanging from a string. While the texture is crunchy on the outside, the bagel is incredibly soft and chewy on the inside. You can tell these are handmade bagels. My friend enjoyed the roe on a sea salt sesame bagel and said it was tasty and fresh. I found the onion bagel a tad burnt on the outside, but the texture was still amazing. As another review says, yes, I would give them my money again. See you next time, Courage Bagels!

I got my free birthday donut here (sign-up and add your birthday in the app) and I got the Celebration Cake donut. The donut was sweet with a crispy glazed exterior and a soft and fluffy interior. It was also still slightly warm which I liked since it gave me the impression that this was freshly made. It did get a bit too sweet for me towards finishing the donut, so eating half at a time is honestly good enough. This is more of a grab-n-go type of spot, but I think they have some outdoor seating in front of the store. There's also parking which Sidecar can validate. I would highly recommend this chain and it's one of my spots I take visitors to. Also, if you download the app you can get a free drink and donut for your first time :)

The place is super cute and very clean. The staff is fine, nothing to write home about. They really don't see too interested in the customers. But they are okay. Parking is pretty easy. What they do make well is coffee. I love dark black coffee and they have that and more and it is very good. Their prices are high-- I think too high. They do have a decent selection on hand. I would go there for coffee, but I won't bother with their donuts anymore. I really hope they work on making sure all donuts are fresh. Their cornbread is good. I have a friend who wanted to try them so we went back and I still found them stale tasting, but great coffee.
