I didn't think I could love Sincerely Bagel more...BUT THEN I walked in today to see they've added olive schmear to their list of options. So now I'm even more in love and even more committed to being a number one fan. The bagels here are so flavorful and unique, the texture is amazing (this is not trying to be a New York bagel so don't at them for not being that), and service is always on point. Given the long line and continuous turnover, they move quickly and still deliver a high quality product. Music is also always top tier as well. Favorite bagel place hands down. Personal favorite: Rosemary bagel with olive cream cheese. read more

Sincerely Bagel - Rosemary, EVOO & Maldon with Kalamata olive schmear - Bagels Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I ordered an everything bagel with 'Just Egg' (the name of a vegan egg replacement), and I didn't realize until several bites in that I got real egg, breaking my 2 years of being vegan. We even clarified twice to the person working the counter that we want 'Just Egg' not Egg and she seemed confused by that, despite that being the name of the vegan eggs on the menu. I also ordered the vegan sausage, which they said after I paid for it that they didn't have it, so they offered to replace it with something else. I chose avocado, cucumbers and red onion which added up the same or close price as the vegan sausage, and they forgot to include the avocado. Overall it was a very poor experience especially because I broke two years of being vegan because of staff not paying attention. read more

Sincerely Bagel - chili crisp egg and pork roll - Bagels Near Me - Portland, Oregon

This place has the best lox bagel I've tried so far in Portland! The bagel itself (sesame) had a nice hard exterior with a soft bite and chew to it. Not hard to eat and I don't feel like I have to saw it down with each bite. The lox was savory and delicious. There was a line out the door but it went fairly quickly. The staff was really kind as well. There are a few tables inside as well as outside to enjoy your bagels. I need to try the rest of the menu next time!! read more

The line was very slow but the food was worth the wait. I got the chili crisp bagel sandwich with egg and spicy scallion cream cheese. It came with a lot of cream cheese which was appreciated and the texture of the bagel was light and not chewy. read more

Overall: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Sincerely, Bagel deserves all the hype it has for sure! But be advised- there is always a line and they may sell out early! I am by no means a bagel connoisseur, but I think this spot might be a top contender for serving up delicious bagels in the PDX area. Yes, they are a bit on the pricier side for bagels and bagel sandwiches, but the bagel flavors and well curated and the fillings they offer are of great quality. I ordered the kimchi cheddar bagel with soufflé egg, green onion schmear, and pork roll fillings- and I was blown away! The texture and flavor of the bagel is something that you should come experience yourself. Combined with the fluffy egg and flavors from the pork and schmear, this bagel sandwich surpassed my expectations in terms of yumminess and texture. I am already thinking about coming back again to try other bagel flavors they offer! There are small circular tables lined up against the wall with a linear booth and some chairs, but the work space is quite small, so I am not sure if this would be a good work spot. They also offer some drinks that I would like to try out some other time! read more

So happy to finally get to try their creative and Asian-inspired bagels! I love how well-balanced their flavors are. You would expect the different unique flavors to clash but they're all subtle enough to work well together. The bagels themselves are on the doughier end but do have a nice crust on the outside. I do wish they would toast them justtt a tad more cause I like toasty bagels. The sandwich I made was a Kimchi Cheddar Bagel with their new Truffle & Pepper Schmear, Pork Roll, and Souffle Egg. The slight acidity of the kimchi was refreshing. The schmear was also light and whipped, rounding out the whole sandwich well. Both the pork roll and egg souffle were fresh, tender, and fluffy! Super delicious all together and definitely one hell of a breakfast sandwich. But my favorite combo so far is probably their Roasted Onion Bagel with the Calabrian Chilli Schmear! Perfectly savory and aromatic. Endless delicious permutations you can make here. Staffs were lovely. Space is cute and the line moves fast so be sure to check them out! read more

This place is incredible. I love that they put a fun spin on traditional bagel flavors. It's pretty small inside, but I've never had an issue getting a table. There will likely be a line and there will definitely be a line if you show up on a weekend after 9am, so come early. I like that they have a menu on the wall near where you line up, so it's easy to see what's available because the flavors do change. They also offer coffee, but there's a spot next door that I prefer. I've tried a number of their bagels and they are all good! I enjoyed the Zaatar, but I think my favorite is the roasted onion, poppy, and Parmesan. Either way, you can't go wrong. The bagels have a nice crusty outside and a soft interior, they do it right! They also offer a number of flavored schmears and a breakfast sandwich, but we tend to go classic and let the bagel shine. This is the spot!! Definitely worth a try if you are remotely close by, we even think it's worth the drive from Beaverton. read more

Sincerely Bagel - Bagel case - Bagels Near Me - Portland, Oregon

The server is an angel, she is the sweetest woman and even treated me with respect despite how un-put together I looked at 1PM on a Saturday. They were sold out of all specialty bagels by that time in the afternoon, so I was relegated to a plain bagel. But I've never had a plain bagel with so much textural nuance! It held up pretty well to the fluffy egg and chili crisp of my bagelwich. Yeah it cost $13 for a bagel with egg cheese avo and chili crisp, and yeah I want to come back *before 1 PM)* to try the specialty bagels like their leek parmesan or Za'atar read more

Five stars because it's a small business - but honestly these bagels are okay. I genuinely don't get the hype. Lack of flavor- bland. However, the place is SPOTLESS!!!! You don't leave smelling like the restaurant. The employees are wearing gloves, washing hands, look clean!! After eating all around Pdx- I can tell you that this place is probably one of the cleanest food establishments I've ever gotten food from. The price is pretty insane tho. For 3 hot sandwiches and one iced coffee was a little Over $50. But whatever, we're supporting a small business. read more

Sincerely Bagel is a Korean-inspired bagel shop serving up some unique and delicious bagels. To get here, street parking will be your best bet and there is a lot of around the neighborhood. Inside, they have a cozy setup with about 5-6 tables for seating. For their menu, they have a solid selection of bagels to choose from and different ways you could create your own sandwich. Wifey and I opted to go for the Ham, Egg & Cheese Sandwich on a Kimchi Cheddar Bagel. All of the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Every bite was delicious, we will be back forsure next time we are in the area! read more

This is a spot that you can go to again and again and not get tired of it. I love their sourdough bagels and the infinite amount of options for bagel bases and schmears.

Sincerely Bagel - jalapeños with plain cream cheese & fennel lemon with garlic & herb - Bagels Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Ever since visiting New York and having bagels over there, I've been on a hunt to find something just as good back home. That's when one of our friends told us about Sincerely Bagels, and I was so glad they did! Offering unique flavors to their bagels, it's done with care and precision. The bagels themselves have a little airiness to them and the schmeer was packed with flavor but not overbearing. We wanted to try the kimchi bagel, but they ran out when we got there, mind you we arrived an hour after they opened. So if they says something, let that sink in. I'll definitely be back to hopefully try the kimchi bagel. Place has limited seating, but they do offer tables outside that allow you to enjoy the PDX and a good morning spot to hang out with company. read more

THE BIG: Located in the Laurelhurst neighborhood of Portland and shares a wall with the pie spot. Snug and cozy bagel spot that has some asian inspired items. Street parking available. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I was staying with a friend and he recommended this bagel spot to me. They have some interesting bagel combinations. The one that stood out to me was the chili crisp bagel. I got the cheddar & kimchi bagel with eggs, cheese, and microgreens along with a chili crisp bagel w/ spicy scallion spread. Both were delicious however I did think the chili crisps bagel was too fried and the exterior hard as I was eating it. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Ultimate for two bagels, we spent around $21. Pretty pricey but to be honest, pretty delicious. I'd come back again to try more of their stuff. read more

Sincerely, Bagel. I don't even know where to start. I am quite the critic when it comes to eating out, as I always expect a high quality-to-price ratio. Sincerely, Bagel blew my expectations upon first bite! I've been to a variety of bagel locations throughout my life as it is a great easy breakfast option, but Sincerely, Bagel easily surpassed all others (to the point of neglect). I first tried their bagels in July and have not stopped thinking about them as my go-to bagel location (I've been a handful of times since then). The selection does vary due to demand and production, but I have not been disappointed with any of the bagels I've tried thus far. The first time I tried Sincerely, Bagel, I got a Za'tar & EVOO bagel with regular cream cheese (you save a few cents). WOW! I never expected to have a reaction to a bagel as I did with this one, it had a crispy exterior, was seasoned generously, and provided a soft interior with a perfectly textured cream cheese. The later times I've gone, I've tried the Rosemary & EVOO bagel and the cheesy garlic bagel with the scallion cream cheese and the garlic and herb cream cheese. While I realized I may not be a cheese bagel type of girl, I did enjoy all selections greatly. The price for a specialty bagel along with a flavored cream cheese is about $6.50, but I believe it is worth every cent (including additional tip). I have not been able to thoroughly assess and describe their product as I typically do with other food places as I eat the product too quickly. I do know that the process that they are consistently delivering with their product is spectacular and has not disappointed me at all (staff have been different multiple times as well). Sincerely, Bagel is definitely worth the visit and price for me (which is very rare)! It intrigues me to the point of interest in their baking and preparation process. Typically when visiting, I'm in a rush or taking out, but they offer a nice seating area with a few tables, chairs, and a bench! There is often a line (but wasn't once), which can take some time to get your item (I would assume an average of 3-4 minutes per bagel as the wait time), but it is definitely worth the wait! They seem to perform to perfection with all varieties of bagels (whichever suits your preference). If they had a stamp card, that would be dangerous and I'd suddenly become an early bird! My only complaint is the early closing time (as most other bagel places have), because I can eat a Sincerely, Bagel bagel at any time. read more

Sincerely, these bagels are amazing! Best bagel I've had in Portland and I have been on the hunt for the last five years. The service was also top notch. Unfortunately, the selection is slim if you go too late. 4 day weekend for the kiddos, so Monday might have been like a Saturday. All that remained was the chili crisp, rosemary and cheddar bacon jalapeño bagels. All were amazing as breakfast sandwiches. The eggs were fluffy. The cheese was cheesy and the bacon was done just right. The jalapeño is a little hot for me, but it burns so good. We're greedy so we went next-door and got another breakfast sandwich but I would pick a bagel over an English muffin any day. We'll be back! read more

I actually saw a critical review of Sincerely Bagel that made me want to come try it for myself. They opened in early 2025 so they're pretty new. They serve sourdough bagels with Korean-inspired flavors. Of course they have traditional bagels/schmears too. You can also get a bagel sandwich or other pastry. I'm not a bagel critic (or some might say bagel snob) - but these were good! Crunchy crusty exterior, chewy doughy interior, and fun flavors. We tried four flavors: plain, zaatar+evoo, leek+sesame, and of course kimchi. Staff was friendly and our bagels came out warm, quickly. This place seems popular so I imagine there is usually a line and they do sell out some days! read more

The cutest Asian-owned bagel shop! I love their Korean inspired schmears and hope they come out with more interesting flavors! We got the Rosemary Evoo Maldon salt bagel with raspberry and green onion cream cheese on the side. They can toast up the bagel and it was interesting bc instead of slicing the bagel in half, they roasted it intact -- which I ended up loving bc the outside is all toasted and crunchy and the inside was steaming, soft, and chewy. We just ripped the bagel in half and dipped into the schmears. I've been thinking about this bagel ever since I've had it and can't wait to go back!! read more

Very unique bagels like zaatar & evoo, leek & sesame! I got the kimchi- cheddar bagel with egg, cheese and microgreens. I thought the bagel was too soft and not crispy but the sandwich itself was delicious! For over $10, this bagel sandwich was pricey, but it hit the spot. The egg was soft and the bagel had alot of flavor. The cream cheese are very unique as well. I loved the spicy scallion schmear. Staff is very nice and overall quick service. read more

I didn't realize Sincerely Bagel was insta famous when I went to check it out when running errands. I came around 11AM on a Saturday and I think it was in between rushes because they still have some of their infamous kimchi bagels. I was starving so I ended up adding the souffle egg, bacon, and cheese for a yummy breakfast sandwich. It took around 10 mins for it to come out but they bring it to your table. I already enjoy eating kimchi so to have it on a bagel? Genius. The bagel sandwich did get a little messy so be sure to have plenty of napkins on hand but it was super fluffy and had a nice crunch with the kimchi. The souffle eggs were a nice touch and balance since the kimchi & bacon add some saltiness to it. Solid breakfast option and would be down to get it again but it does get expensive close to $15. Didn't try their coffee this time but be sure to check out the sign for some other bagel specials they have. If you're not feeling that they have your standard options as well - just check the case to be sure they are in stock. read more

I got the zaatar and evoo bagel with garlic and herb cream cheese, 10/10! The bagel was big and fluffy with a chewy center but a good crust on the outside. The cream cheese was well seasoned and they did not overdo it with the amount of cream cheese on the bagel. We did get there a little late in the day and they were out of a lot of the popular flavors so definitely go early! read more

I want to set something straight here before I get started. Bagels in PDX will never be on the same level as NYC bagels. They aren't even in the same class. So to ding this little place with 2 star reviews because it isn't NYC is a bit ridiculous, IMHO. I've had plenty of bagels around the US and their have their own place with respect to their city and I will be giving this review with that in mind. For the city of Portland, Sincerely Bagel brings some unique unique offerings to the table which I haven't seen before. Kimchi bagel and the Leek,sesame, and gruyere (LSG) come to mind but also the za'atar and evoo bagel. They also have some standard bagel offerings for those that aren't as adventurous. We selected the kimchi and the LSG bagel but also asked the cashier for some help in pairing the right schmear for these bagels. They suggest the spicy scallion and the regular scallion respectively. For vegans there are two options as well with a small upcharge. The staff here are the friendliest. They were mopping the floor in front of the coffee station and went and got us the creamer so we didn't have to make their floor messy. Also when our bagels came out and they knew we were sharing offered to cut our bagels in half and we took them up on it. The schmears were spot on. The kimchi had just enough kick to make it not overwhelming but definitely give it a little bite with the savoriness. The LSG was kinda sweet. I wasn't expecting that. No complaints but just know it is a slightly sweet bagel. Both were easy to bite into and chew. Price to proportion ratio was on on par with other bagel joints. While not a huge seating area still plenty of two person tables. I actually looked the unique color scheme of the walks too. Kinda soothing. Two colors of blue on white and a green floor. If I had to nitpick anything here it is how hard it is to read the menu sign. The letters are just too small. I got a headache just trying to read it. Against the dotted background. Not only does this slow down ordering but I found it annoying. They should change this out to improve readability. Parking is only street parking in the neighborhood. This is typical of the downtown area but I had no problem finding parking quickly on a Friday morning. I think I wanna come back and try the za'atar and evoo next time. Thanks for the unique offerings! read more

What isn't made better by the addition of kimchi?! When I saw a video about the kimchi bagels, I knew I had to come with my spouse as we keep trying kimchi everything. The location is convenient just off a busy street; we were able to secure nearby parking easily. And the storefront is so cute in bright happy colors with plants and a nice row of bench and chair seating along the length of the long narrow space. We had excellent, friendly and helpful service from the person who took our order helping us pair the right cream cheese options to the person who brought out bagels out and then offered to cut them so we could share. We observed some to-go orders while we were there and service was quick! We really enjoyed our bagels. I'm glad I started with the leek and Gruyère because it was a little delicate in flavor and slightly sweet. It did pair well with scallion cream cheese but plain would have also worked. The kimchi bagel was the star for both of us though. My first bite was strong and so tasty! I got another couple bites that were strong and spicy. Overall even though the cream cheese was the spicy version, it wasn't too spicy. I look forward to coming back for another kimchi bagel and the Za'atar bagel next time! read more

Best bagel I've had in a long time! Stopped in to try the Za'atar bagel, but saw the tartines & had to pivot. Ordered the Nolita on a leek, sesame, Gruyère & honey bagel, it was SO good! The bagel itself was bomb, light and soft inside with a flavorful crispy outside. The leeks were delicious & savory, they went so well with the bite of the lemon vinaigrette on the micro greens. The portion was great, worth the price. Def goin' back this weekend to try some of the others, stoked to have these in the neighborhood! read more

I don't usually go to places that make me close my eyes and rejoice after a bite especially super hyped spots because I almost always end up disappointed. But the kimchi cheddar bagel with spicy scallion cream cheese absolutely rocked my world. Kimchi on a bagel is genius.

My only big gripe is that the menu board is so hard to read. It's black lettering on a small white board but the way the texture of the board is, the letters blur together..I honestly had to get close to see the menu so I don't feel like it's very accessible. Other than that.. Great unique sourdough bagels that are freshly made! I got the kimchi bagel with plain schmear and smoked salmon!!

Saw it on Instagram; went for the kimchi cheddar bagel. They sold out the day before, so we tried to get there early-ish. There was a long line outside. I think we waited about an hour from line to bagels in hand. We both ordered the kimchi one, and it was pretty good. Got it with the spicy schmear, which was also delicious. I've never seen a. Kimchi bagel on a menu, so that was something fun to try. Prices seem fair, I think. Staff were amazing even though they were insanely busy! There's ample seating inside if you choose to stay.

So I drove 30 minutes to get to this place and after my experience I can honestly say I'd have driven twice as far to have this amazing of a time! I had the Nolita which offers your choice of bagel (I had the Everything because that is the best kind, always) with a nice schmeer, EVOO drizzle, a generous amount of fresh micro greens and capers. This is a lovely meal. (If I could, I buy one of these and frame it and put it in the foyer of my mansion. Of course it wouldn't last because I would eat it right off, and also I don't have a foyer, much less mansion.) My dining partner had the Mulberry and chose a rosemary bagel with that. She said it was luscious. The Mulberry has a Schmear plus fresh tomato slices with EVOO and a dusting of salt and pepper. Well, the coffee was OK, it was a little weak for my liking, but I prefer very strong and very dark roasted coffee. My companion had a latte that she found delightful. Very pleasant service and a cute and clean environment. read more

It's worth the hype. Kimchi bagel. Scallion cream cheese. That's all I have to say about that.

Sorry, not the best picture. Any picture wouldn't do this bagel justice anyways. It was one of the best I've had. Id say it's also the closest you can get to a NY bagel on the east coast. First off, the flavor combinations they have for their specialty bagels are quite unique but taste soooooo good. They had a couple of standard ones as well. Those also didn't disappoint. All of the ones we tried were so soft on the inside and had a perfect crust on the outside. They didn't hold back on the cream cheese either like a lot of other places do but they do put the perfect amount. We loved them so much we even had to bring a couple back home with us to have throughout the week. Highly recommend! Even when the line was out the door they still had fast and pleasant service so don't let a long like scare you away. read more
