Sam's on Sunset serves a great bagel. It's been in the neighborhood for ages and there's often a line out the door. I think there's parking in the back , usually I get lucky enough to scoop a meter on sunset or the residential street. read more

Excellent friendly service I met Manny and some of the other guys and they are always so kind! Their bagels are next level. My absolute fave in la right now. I love coming here atleast once a week but would come more if I could. The turkey sandwich on your choice of bagel is amazing, so fresh read more

We live down the street and have been coming here for 15 years.... I don't what it is, but these guys just can't get it right. We ask for well done and we get the bagels home and they are hardly toasted. More often than not, we have to go back to the restaurant and ask them to re toast it and usually I am given an attitude. This morning the same thing happened and this time they re-toasted a bagel that we had already bitten into. I have to believe this is a health violation. Moral of the story, the guys just don't seem to give a damn about the quality or customer service. It's so frustrating. read more

They have really great bagels, cream cheeses and sandwiches but the main thing for me is the staff are SO nice. Rare in LA- I have always had the most kind interactions here. read more

As a neighborhood bagel shop Sam's is amazing! I have never had a bad day after leaving Sam's. I love the pimpernel bagel with just butter or a lox spread. The service has always been great! (I do miss the lady though, I hope she's well) 10 out of 10 always. read more

The Whole wheat everything bagel was so good! All the bagels are the biggest bagels I've ever seen. Great prices, amazing customer service, and overall a 10/10 when it comes to bagel shops. I'll definitely be back! read more

I'm tired of being overcharged for the same two type of bagels. One week they're both $5 then another they're both $6. Their staff is inconsistent with this and offer up only excuses such as the cheese bagels cost a $1 more. Well, if that's the case then it should $5.50 not $6. Otherwise, a good bagel in terms of quality, size, taste. read more

Solid spot with friendly service. The turkey pastrami is a fave as are the breakfast sandwich bagels. If you're in a rush, order ahead and pick up. Line can get long. read more

This is a great spot for easy quick and satisfying breakfast or lunch. I ordered a chicken breast bagel and my husband had a chicken salad sandwich both were perfect. I love that bagels taste so fresh and easy to store at home. We will be coming back very often read more

Excellent, I've been there many times. Friendly staff and great bagels. Gets busy for a reason.

This used to be my favorite bagel spot but it's recently gone downhill . Twice my order was not correct and the quality isn't the same .

The sandwiches are a great size super yummy and filling love the lox sandwich on a cinnamon raisin! The store is nice and clean

Fantastic bagels and delicious sandwiches that truly taste homemade. The mini bagels are a great touch--perfect for snacking or when you can't decide on just one flavor. Highly recommend! read more

Best bagels hands down,awesome & friendly service,there's a lot different kinds of bagels to choose from,the bagels have a good crunch and freshness,we drive from a good distance and sometimes sit in traffic for hours,it's worth it all.the ambiance is quick service. read more

Sam's on Sunset - Turkey jalapeño cream cheese and jalapeño cheese bagel - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A client of mine recommended Sam's on Sunset as a place to get a good bagel and egg sandwich. I do have a good working relationship with my client, however, with all due respect, my bagel sandwich palate is out of his league. Sam's is a small little shop on busy Sunset and Fairfax (adjacent to the Bristol Farms). No parking lot, very minimal street parking, no frills, no fuss, no flavor. The selection of bagels is average, with less than a dozen options at any given time. The prices are decent, with bagels running a bit under $2 each, and the breakfast bagel sandwiches between $5-8 depending on toppings. On this midweek occasion, I stopped by around 11am and there was nobody inside, including the staff. Finally, after tentatively asking, "Hello?" a gentleman came to the counter to help me didn't that didn't speak English. I asked for an Egg and Cheese Bagel Sandwich (on an Egg Bagel) and he kept insisting I just wanted an Egg Bagel. After several attempts, I had to use my not-so-fluent Spanglish to translate my order. Needless to say, after a few minutes of back and forth, I eventually got what I ordered (or so I thought). While I was waiting on the side countertop for my order, another customer came in and by that time, another employee (who spoke English) came from the back and helped him with his order. A few minutes later, the employee that took my order rudely shouted "Bagel," in my direction and shoved a small paper bag in my direction. I opened the bag and undid the sandwich lining to find a Bagel Sandwich. The egg and cheese were hot, however, the bagel was not. It was not even toasted. Literally taken from the front counter basket, cut and served. The bagel was completely dry and had no type of condiment (butter?) on it to help with the flavor at all. It was, as advertised, a $5.95 Egg and Cheese Bagel. Nothing more, and lots less. Sure, the egg and Cheddar Cheese were tasty, but with a dry bagel vessel, this sandwich experience was sunk from the beginning. Not sure what the other bagels are like, but I'm willing to bet that "Average" is about the highest marks one can expect from good ol' Sam's on Sunset. Given LA's incredible food scene, you just have to scour the Yelp reviews and ask your bagel-loving foodie friends where to score a great bagel with a great attitude and they can point you in many different directions beyond Sunset. read more

I was there at 9am on a Thursday to pick up plain, everything and cheese plain bagels. The plain bagel tasted the freshest but I was not impressed. Do not recommend. read more

Pro-tip: parking is tricky. Anti-gridlock on sunset from 7-9! Am, so park on the side street. If you want to take a small risk park at the Bristol farms. Yes, you're unauthorized , but there's like a 99 chance nothing will happen as the lot is empty mostly -- especially in the morning. Highly recommend their everything bagel and cream cheese. Their best Bag by far. When you need it the most, Sam is consistent to get your American Morning a jumpstart with a cup of Joe and a New York, LA bagel . I've spent many a mornings at 6:00 am to snag an everything bagel and cream cheese. Everything bagel is everything you need. The seasoning is extremely pronounced and slightly bitter when the crust toasts. Some might find that off-putting, but that's the way ya I like it. Bagel and cream cheese under $5. read more

Sam's on Sunset - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Fresh back from a week in New York City, I needed to know what LA spot had the best bagel. I got some friends together, all of whom visit NYC often and one who is actually from NYC. We are tough critics. We tried Hank's, Sam's, and Belle's, some with cream cheese and others with eggs, sausage, and cheese. You know, for science. We picked up from all three spots. Hank's had a very easy ordering process - I just placed my order online and popped in to pick up. Sam's was the same. Belle's required standing in line and placing an order in person (demerits!). Our finds on the best bagel: Belle's for everything bagel Sam's for onion bagel Sam's for salt bagel Hank's for cinnamon raisin Hank's and Belle's both had great sesame bagels Based on this, I'm actually a little surprised that Sam's doesn't have a higher score overall on Yelp, but if you're looking for an onion bagel or a salt bagel, know that Sam's is your spot! There was just no contest. The others didn't even come close. Sam's was the hands-down winner for an onion bagel, and it's ruined me for others. read more

No matter what I know that I can be able to grab a bagel and locks here and it will hit every time, but the food is always fresh, which is important for fish and overflowing, which is important to my budget. Their seating in the back which is cool but I usually just take it to go since the seating is also the Bristol Farms parking lot. Services is super friendly and fast. read more

I have to say this. After giving these guys so many tries I give up. They never get an order correct. This morning I ordered a plain bagel and a sesame seed bagel not toasted with chive cream cheese. I got two everything bagels toasted with plain cream cheese. They just don't care. read more

Sam's has really upped their game in the past few months. The bagels are soft on the inside and no longer taste like they are a day old. I personally love a plain bagel with hummus! Not sure if they make their hummus in house, but if they do, it's smooth and creamy. Their bagel sandwiches are great for an on-the-go breakfast. Each time my husband and I have gone there, the staff has been attentive and work extremely well together. It makes the difference when the staff diligently handles what seems to be a never ending line in the shop! I don't think I've waited more than 10 minutes from being in line to being handed my prepared bagels. Thanks again! read more

Been stopping through Sam's for bagel-fixes for yearsssss! Love the quality and freshness of the ingredients here, the Everything Bagel being my fave with the Onion Bagel a close second and what I get when they run out of the Everything. I usually get it toasted well with salmon shmear which, for all of $5, suits me as I'm usually on the go. But sometimes I splurge the $12 for the real deal salmon sando with tomatoes and red onions and capers-- the fish is always fresh and soft, the flavors always what you want from such a classic pairing of ingredients-- good lox should always be like it is at Sam's and it's often not at other places. The service at this Sam's is always terrific and the team genuinely seem to be happy and like working together which is nice to see. It all adds to the overall experience here which is a fun one. The place isn't much by way of design, rather industrial and functional in nature, really just a glass counter display of bagels to go but they do have a nice patio out back they added on a decade or so ago that many are unaware of... it's a pleasant enough place to enjoy your newspaper or book, bagels and coffee (which is just so so but affordable). read more

Best Bagels in West Hollywood! I am a regular that comes in once a week and wanted to start off by saying I come here for the amazing fresh bagels and creme cheese, not the interactions with workers. However, I love the women at the front I don't need some lovely dovey interaction. The comments about her are not okay, she is a very nice women just isn't talkative with pointless conversation. The mini bagels are a must! They don't even need any creme cheese or toasting, I snack on them when I walk home. Absolutely the perfect size. The other bagels that I think are wonderful are the egg bagel and everything bagel. Don't forget to grab a fresh orange juice which is out of this world delicious and the cream cheese is great both veggie and plain. Luckily I live walking distance and come very often but I know when I eventually move away from West Hollywood this is going to be a bagel spot that I crave!! If you are ever in town definitely give them a try. 5/5 read more

best bagels in los angeles. don't sleep on the back patio- it's amazing. sam's bagels forever!!!

Best bagels in LA. Pricing is actually fair for the quality you get. I phone order BEC all the time for breakfast and its always ready when pulling up under 7 minutes later. The guys here clearly work hard, and there's a closed off patio in the back if you want to drink your coffee while there. read more

I'd come back to buy a bagel only to prepare at home, NOT for their sandwiches. Got the BLT bagel, but they add mustard to and is not a listed ingredient (at least on DoorDash pickup). Waaaay too much mayo and mustard and the bagel isn't toasted. Couldn't make a requests either so it came as it did. Bagel for being untoasted and soaked was still good. Bacon wasn't crispy, and the lettuce wilted (or soaked?) hard to tell. Such a bummer because I could tell under it all the taste of the bagel was delicious and fluffy. People working there super nice ! Tint spot with no place to eat there, definitely a pick up and leave joint. read more

Ordered delivery from this place for the first time and we were eating our bagels as sandwiches when one of us opened it up and saw mold on the cream cheese. We all got the same thing so we knew none of us could eat them as the cream cheese of course came from the same spot. Hoping we didn't eat enough that we will get sick. I never will go here or order from here again. read more
