Fast & Delicious Friendly chill environment. Like the open seating and high ceilings. Salmon Mousse Bagel & Chicken Calzones were yummy. Definitely coming back. read more

Three reasons why we LOVE Seize the Bagel: 1.) The owner is incredibly generous. I've noticed them supporting and donating to countless community activities and events through the years. I think that says a lot about a business. 2.) Child friendly atmosphere. Little tables for kids, fun train set, chalk and lots of books. Great place to kill an hour or so with my little ones and maybe meet some other local parents. Great place to plan a get-together for coffee and lunch with other moms. 3.) Lots of vegan options, different flavored soy cream cheeses, most of the bagels are vegan other than the obvious ones with cheese on top etc. Soy and almond milk out all the time for coffee. So much more choice than you'd expect. We've been coming for years and plan to keep it up. Highly recommend. read more

Their vegan cream cheese and their vegan sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich are amazing!!!

Good variety of choices here but the bagels themselves didn't seem to be boiled. Unboiled bagels are just round soft bread...texture and taste is really blah in comparison to boiled bagels. But prices were reasonable, drip coffee was watery. Not a bad place but there are definitely better bagels out there read more

I would recommend this place to any vegan looking to snag a quick breakfast. I had a toasted whole wheat bagel with non-dairy strawberry cream cheese and it was excellent. I was given a generous amount of non-dairy cream cheese, which is a huge plus, and the wait time was reasonable even given that this place is very busy in the mornings. read more

Had the Greek breakfast sandwich via #DoorDash. Instructions weren't followed. Poorly made sandwich. Ruined my breakfast.

The Bagels were very good. I had a Calzone Sausage and egg and my wife had a plain Bagel w/ Ham & Mozarella Cheese. The place is very nice and it has a lot of customers coming in. read more

Just ordered here for the first time. Not sure why it took me so long as I'm a big fan of bagels. I ordered their turkey sandwich and added avocado which was delicious. I also ordered a chocolate chip cookie. They were out, but they gave me a molasses cookie instead which was amazing. Also they have Smith tea which is my favorite brand and a huge plus. All for a pretty low price. I'll definitely be back! read more

Stopped in on a whim yesterday and ended up ordering a veggie sandwich on a sun dried tomatoes bagel. The bagel itself was fabulous, having it toasted was a nice contrast to the coolness of the cream cheese and crisp veggies. read more

My family and I love Seize the Bagel! Greek Eggel with basil pesto cream cheese and Hawaiian coconut bagel with vanilla cream cheese..... THE BEST! The staff is very kind and pleasant! Love this place!!!!! read more

I like a lot of things about this place. Coffee is good. Bagels are Devine! Great people! read more

They have good quality bagels, but after spending way more than I'd like to on breakfast sandwiches and coffees I got home to find my ENTIRE food order was wrong (not coffees). And not like it got mixed up with someone else's, it was definitely intended to be my order. In all fairness I felt like I confused the guy, so when the first two were wrong I let it go, but when they were all wrong - I got frustrated. I don't like rating places based on one experience but when I called no one answered, so Yelp it is. Good but pricey and check your order before you leave. read more

My husband wishes I would give 1 star, but I'm a nice girl. Definitely not your NYC boiled bagel. More like bread that's round with a hole in the middle. Even toasting didn't help, it was still soft & dry. The chipotle cream cheese was decent. Coffee was two thumbs down, but maybe we're just super spoiled with amazing coffee in the PNW. If you need a Sunday morning carb fix this place will do, but don't have high expectations. read more

I grew up in Skokie, IL and with Jewish Godparents. The biggest standing argument is about who's bagel is the best. I gotta say that I was pleasantly surprised with this place. Is it the boiled chewy bagel that you would get from NYC or Chicago? Not even close. If you realize that it's more of a place to get bread that looks like a bagel with really good toppings, you won't be disappointed. This isn't a Jewish deli. Great coffee, good lox, decent spreads, and haven't had a hard time with getting good service. The only recommendation that I would make is to get the tables cleaned more often and stop pushing all the crap from the table onto the chairs. I have a big ass and wearing smashed, black poppy and sesame seeds isn't a fashion statement but a dry cleaning bill. Time for my high gluten, super charged carb loaded breakfast treat. Can't do this all the time but when I do, this is the place to go locally. read more

Where do I begin to tell the story of how bad a bagel can be...? Former New Yorker = bagel expert! Read the reviews for this place and thought I would give a try. Bleck bleck bleck! Got the everything bagel (except taste), lox, cream cheese, onion, capers Bagel barely toasted- tasteless Cream cheese - mediocre Onion- outside not peeled off-hard unappetizing Presentation- poor. Just slopped together. Lox-cheap grade, not Nova, tasteless. Recommendation- don't go and waste your money. read more

I came to Vancouver this weekend and was so excited when my friend wanted to bring me here. I had been craving the calzones for quite some time. When we arrived, we walked in and placed our order to go. The employee working us took our order and then decided to tell us that we need to put a mask on. Without hesitation I put mine on and my friend went to the car to get hers. During that time the employee continued to tell me how it was the law and that everyone was required to wear them. While wearing my mask, I pointed out that the gentlemen sitting inside (not eating or drinking anything) wasn't wearing a mask, that they had no signs posted stating that they were required and every place has been managing it differently so we didn't know. It has honestly just slipped our minds. As I was standing at the counter, trying to pay for our meal so I could leave she told me that she was not going to serve me and walked away. I understand having to wear a mask but I don't understand being treated so rudely at a business I want to spend my money at and support. We went to the Hazel Dell location instead and received great service. Next time I'm in town I'll be visiting the Hazel Dell location but I will not be returning to the Mill plain location. read more

I was surprised and delighted by their vegan options or dairy free options. The chive and bacon vegan cream cheese is delicious. This may become a regular place for my partner and I. Yum! read more

Just found this place and it's a little slice of heaven.the Hawaiian coconut bagel is divine!

Just phenomenal. My partner has been using door dash with them and now we are bagel people . Love their vegan menu(vegan fudge cupcake for sure) and their notes! Would highly recommend read more

MY ALL TIME FAVORITE BAGEL SPOT!! Ever since I moved to California, I'm always in search for an amazing bagel spot. However, I can never find another bagel place better than the one at home. I've gone to multiple throughout the bay area but it's just not the same. I was originally introduced to Seize The Bagel back in high school when it was sold at the student store. We called it the "cheesy bagel" but the actual name in the shop is "wild cheddar" which has garlic, poppy seeds, melted cheese and life all over it. I always order it toasted with cream cheese. The cream cheese is light and fluffy and generous. I shed a little tear every time I eat the wild cheddar. Great place for breakfast. The original shop in the plaza was nice back then but when they moved a few doors down, the place became huge and renovated. There's a nice modern feel to it and the glass case of a million bagels makes me so excited. They also offer fresh juices and other things like coffee. A convenient place to go and inexpensive. Service is always kind and they are fast! I never wait more than two minutes to get my bagel bagged up and ready to go. Thanks for being so awesome! Good service + Good food = Happy person! read more

It's hard to give an in-depth experience when it comes to something as simple as a bagel. Service was so-so and apparently not memorable enough to praise. Our breakfast bagel sandwiches were adequate. My favorite part of this place is that they've got a ridiculous amount of seating. It definitely fills up fast, though. I didn't have any coffee, but they have fresh coffee out which is nice. I'd go back if I were in the area and had a hankering for a bagel sandwich, but I usually try to avoid the carb overload. read more

Mediocre bagels - Winco has better ! Employees not wearing masks; could be a good place to get infected! I was shocked!!!

Was moved from my original downtown hotel to one very close to the airport due to possibly dangerous protests on my work layover and could not find anywhere that had fresh fruit smoothies early on a Sunday morning. I have a very specific diet and thankfully Seize The Bagel was open. A very professional and kind man named Justin called me after receiving my internet order and helped me figure out my meal before I had to get back on a plane for 7 hours! Justin thank you so much for being so kind and trying your best to help, and thank you for the fruit! :) read more

Chewy outside, tender inside, just like bagels are meant to be. Seriously the best bagels I have ever had outside of NYC or Skokie, IL. Eager service, creative combos, almost overwhelming options and lovely atmosphere make this place a quick new favorite. Go before it's discovered and the line goes out the door. read more

The food that I had was quite dry and ridiculous for the price. Everything that you're paying for here is atmosphere, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The atmosphere is a perfect place to come for a book club, getting work done, etc. One of the most beautiful coffee/bagel shops I've ever been in. But the food and service was p terribad and I would not come back for food, but the next time I need to get a report done, this is going to be my go to place. Sorry for low rating, but food is the most important part. read more

See all

If I wanted bagels like this I would just go to Safeway and get some for less than half the price. I tried a few flavors of their cream cheese and I was not impressed; they might as well just buy pre made cheese from the store... or maybe they do. Their coffee is mediocre at best. I have had worse but it's not my first choice by any means. I would expect a little better than cafe darte when you have so many outstanding local roasters around. The service I received was fine a suppose. I felt rushed when there was hardly anyone in line. There was hardly any attempt to be personable by the employees and I was trying to be quite friendly. read more

There is always a line out the door! Fresh bagels and plenty of options to choose from make it a great pit stop for breakfast. The one thing I can't handle personally is how loud it is inside. It makes it impossible to have a conversation sometimes. read more

There's a reason there is almost always a line. This place is so consistently good. Their food always comes out hot since it's made right there. They have a kid play area toward the back which helps with the little ones (when waiting in said line). I always get the bacon and cheddar sandwich on a wild cheddar bagel - SO good and love coming in. read more

I got bakers dozen and couple cream cheese to go on Wednesday. It was my first time visiting in person but my husband has brought home bagels from here quite a bit. The bagels were good, but I was disappointed by some white substance that was on the bottom of the plastic bag that got on my bag and my car seat. It was a pain to get it off. read more

This place serves delicious bagel sandwiches. My favorite is the LUX sandwich with smoked salmon and capers. They also have a variety of freshly brewed coffee. read more

Really tasty bagels and friendly service! Only odd thing to me is toppings are SO expensive. To be honest I'd recommend just buying the bagels and taking home to eat with your own cream cheese. Otherwise, delicious & a great choice for bagels! read more

Breakfast of champions!! I love this place! Tasty bagels, coffee and juice! Even if there's a line they still get everyone through pretty quick! Prices are pretty fair especially for what you get! read more

Learn how to get peoples door dash orders right the first time. too many times have I ordered from them and my bagel is always made wrong!

Staff is extremely accommodating for any needs. Come here with my kids at least once a week from across town and won't stop doing it great business and will definitely keep supporting it. read more

Seize The Bagel - This is one of the most delicious Reuben sandwiches I've ever had On an asiago bagel these guys are amazing fresh bagels daily - Sandwiches Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

So, this is my favorite bagel place ever. I love the new location and had been coming for a year before the new location. My favorite is the Lox sandwich. Super yummy when it's made right. And right there is why I'm only able to give it three stars. The first few times I'd even here (old location) I got the Lox sandwich. I was pretty bummed out because the onion was cut so thick it was like biting into an apple. Being they use red onions that's a LOT of flavor and heat for it to be sliced that big. So I had to remove them. I got into the habit of asking if my onion could be sliced thinly, and although they obliged me, I am usually met with bewilderment, angst and perturbation by the employees. On some occasions I'd have an employee who totally got it and was happy to make it happen, but usually I felt like I was being difficult for asking such a reasonable request. The last few times I've been I got the sense that it was not a problem and I was weird for even feeling the need to ask so this visit I'm writing about now, I didn't ask. I got a pile of onion that when stacked up was larger than the one half of the sandwich. If I had left it on that would be the only thing I would taste. When an employee heard me complaining to my husband about it she offered to rectify it but I just couldn't be bothered, especially when she made excuses like "When it's busy sometimes the onion gets sliced think like that" which I know is not the case, because unless you ask them to do it otherwise you get quarter to half inch slices of red onion ALL THE TIME, slow busy or moderate paced business hours. Please fix this ongoing issue. Having worked in high end deli/restaurants when I was younger, my suggestion is to get a meat slicer and slice your onion on the slicer and then you get beautiful thinly sliced onion and CONSISTENCY so then if you have patrons who actually WANT tons and tons of onion you just add more onion. If the issue gets fixed (I'm going to write the company directly too) then I'm more than happy to give you guys a 5 star review, cause I love you guys otherwise. 11/25 It appears that the onions are now being sliced thin without asking. I went in with some friends for lox bagel sandwiches and I asked for my onion to by sliced thin, while a buddy of mine did not ask (they were also on a separate order) and he also got onions sliced appropriately for his sandwich also. So I'm updating and changing from my 3 stars to 5 stars. Keep up the great work guys! Wish you were closer to me but so worth the drive to Vancouver from Clackamas county! read more

Wow! What an amazing sandwich I just had! I've been craving a good, old fashioned bagel with lox & cream cheese with all the trimmings, capers, lettuce, tomato, etc, and did they ever come through. First off, the garlic bagel was obviously crazy fresh. They toasted it to perfection, which might not seem like a big deal, but you'd be surprised how many times other places either barely toast it, or over do it. The portion of Liz was impressive! Other places might give you enough to get the taste of Liz. These folks lay it on nice & thick. I joined up for their points club because I KNOW I'll be coming back. A lot! read more

Yummmmm! I love this place - it's a "must" for our family when we come to OR/WA. Fresh, fresh, fresh and huge variety. My old favorite is the Snickerdoodle...speaks for itself! In addition to bagels, their sandwiches and breakfasts are also delicious. I eat low carbs/keto so I had their Turkey Sausage, egg, and cheese all by its lonesome (took the bagel on the side and home for my son) and it was perfect. Roomy, cool, and clean atmosphere. Met a friend there on another day (she drives from Happy Valley for their bagels), and noticed for the 2nd time that there was this cute bunch of ladies who met their to do some "crafting"! Love that! Love their new, larger space, too. Friendly staff. read more
