Spent over$20 (after tax) on a bagel with smoked salmon. I ordered onion on the bagel and there was a teaspoon of chopped onion. I asked for the bagel to be toasted, it was not. I've never been so disappointed in a bagel order. The bagel itself was not bad, but the price is outrageous and the server didn't listen to what I wanted. Unfortunately I won't be returning. read more

The Bagel House sits in the rear of an old stone house at 804 Bethlehem Pike, Glenside. Small parking lot behind the building close by the door into the shop which appears more a walkout basement. By 1.00 on a Saturday afternoon the inventory was pretty light, but I scored a garlic bagel with veggie cream cheese. Service was fine as they explained they were closing in an hour. My order was completed quickly; wrapped and bagged as my change was tossed in the tip jar. The rounder was denser than I prefer, but still fresh and loaded with roasted garlic nubs and almost chunky veggies in the homemade spread. The menu offered breakfast and lunch sandwiches and standards like nova lox cut to order and traditional American fare like bacon, sausage or pork roll on bagel of choice. If I find myself in the neighborhood some morning I would be tempted to check them out. 3.5 STARS read more

We got two breakfast sandwiches, the pork roll was not cooked, egg was microwaved it seemed. 2 coffees, dozen bagels. Total was about $65... we did not even get a receipt to see the breakdown but overall I was not impressed and disappointed. read more

We stopped in to grab a half dozen bagels and cream cheese. Left with 6 below average bagels and a small tub of cream cheese for $22? These guys are out of their minds with prices. Won't be back read more

Used to go here before I noticed the absurd pricing. More expensive than NYC real bagel places. Mediocre at best. Microwave eggs and bacon. Once tipped $2 and the dim kid handed me 98 cents change. Dropped that change in tip jar and took back a dollar from the jar. Go to Locals or Pizza City in Wyndmoor. Same style sandwich for half the price. Or Liberty Kitchen at CH farmers market. read more

I never write reviews but I felt the need to do it this time. I got 2 bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches AND half dozen plain bagels and PAID $35.12. I should have walked right out of there when they said the price . This place should be ashamed of themselves. You got me this time. Never again and hopefully this review saves other people from the being overcharged. read more

Save your money, orders were wrong, bagels and hash browns were very hard. It truthfully felt like there was minimal effort in to preparing our food. We also paid $50 for 2 sandwiches (both incorrect), a bagel with cream cheese (wrong cream cheese), and a hash brown. Definitely will not be back read more

Get there early and the bagels are hat and super delicious! They have great breakfast sandwiches as well.

Overpriced rolls with a hole. The skin is almost there , then you get to the crumb...no dense chew And reminiscent of a supermarket roll. Just overall disappointment -especially for their over-proud price read more

I was in the area earlier on the weekend and having passed by before, I thought I'd stop in to check it out. Interesting little shop in the bottom of a house. I went with two, bacon, egg, and cheese bagels with two hash browns. It was a little busy so it took some time, but the staff was very friendly. Got home to eat and thought everything was fine. Nice looking egg, a little light on the bacon (maybe two, relatively thin slices, so like one per half of sandwich.) Hash brown was your standard patty, though a little underdone in the center. Totally cooked, but just very light. I see people mentioning microwaving, so I'm not sure how it was all cooked. Bagel was nice and chewy. I'd say overall it's ok. read more

The Bagel House - Bacon, egg, and cheese bagel with hash brown - Bagels Near Me - Glenside, Pennsylvania

This was my first time here because I wanted to try a new local bagel shop. The customer service was phenomenal, they were super nice. I do wish the chocolate chip bagels had more chocolate chips, but overall the bagels were good. For a half dozen bagels and a bagel and cream cheese, $20 did seem pretty high, though. I would return. Also, definitely note that there is some outdoor seating, but it is mostly a place that you take home as opposed to sit in and eat read more

Premium bagel place and soooooo yummy soft and delicious. This is our breakfast go to for bagels and sandwiches and Goodies.

We've been here several times, and have always been pleased. Their bagels never were over-the-top good, but they were decent and provided a hearty foundation for cream cheese and lox. The last visit was different. I'm not sure if they're under new ownership, if they changed their recipe, or if it was an "off" day. The bagels were bready, and lacked the dense, chewy interior necessary to even qualify as a bagel. The flavor was bland, and faded with the addition of cream cheese. I guess we'll have to search for another (fairly) nearby bagel joint! read more

I stopped by to pick up some bagels for the family. I purchased 6 bagels and a 1/2 pint of cream cheese. To my surprise, I was charged $24 for them! That is more than New York prices and the bagels were just ok. Wish I could write a positive review, but I feel ripped off. read more

I should've seen the low stars and not ordered from here. So if you are reading this...DONT GO HERE. My husband picked up lunch for us and they didn't put the bagel sandwich in the bag. I called and asked if they could refund my credit card. The lady was apologetic and said yes of course . Well it's been almost 2 months (I wanted to wait a bit to write a review because I know sometimes it takes a bit to see a refund on your cc) and I haven't seen a credit from the bagel sandwich. Even though it was around $7 or so, it's the principle. Not cool at all bagel house...you should be ashamed if yourself. As for the other two things we got, the chicken salad sandwich was weak, about 1tbsp of chicken salad on the sandwich and it was around $8!!!! Small little slices of bread at that. Prices are high for what you get. read more

This is an unpretentious bagel shop that I've driven past 100's of times and decided to stop in one day as. Needed a quick late breakfast for everyone. I was waited on rather quickly. There wasn't very much to choose from. I ordered and everything (which the gentleman was nice enough to separate from the others) cinnamon raisin & plain. When I got home and took them out of the bag I was disappointed with how hard these bagels were. They were very challenging to slice and even after toasting them difficult to chew. Probably won't be back. But if your in the area try for yourself. It could have just been an off day. read more

It is easy to drive past The Bagel House on the Bethlehem Pike in Erdenheim without knowing it's there but if you like bagels - don't do that. I'm not a huge bagel person - I don't come from a bagel culture - but even I can tell these fresh-baked bagels are a cut above the average. Especially I think this is true when they are toasted. I tried the whole wheat bagel with the 'everything' topping and the cinnamon raisin and I enjoyed both. There are also a whole menu of bagel sandwiches you can try out including their Nova sammy which they put forward as a specialty. I haven't tried it as of yet. There is an off-street parking lot which is def needed as you can't park on the Bethlehem Pike. Hey maybe with bakery fresh bagels like these I'll become more of a bagel person! tip - They also own a food truck which sometimes makes an appearance at different events. read more

What an awesome spot to get a bagel on the! Emphasis on the to go part! But not a good place for good bagels. There place does not have a sit down area but has a great variety of bagels - Rainbow, Poppy Seed, Sesame, Blueberry, Whole Wheat, Chocolate Chip, Everything, Pumpernickel, Plain, Cinnamon Raison, Salt, Garlic, and Rye! They also have different choices of cheese - American, Swiss, Provolone, Cheddar, and Muenster! Not only do they have a breakfast menu, but they also have a lunch menu! However, I was not a fan of the bagel! I ordered Bacon and Egg on a Sesame bagel. The egg was microwaved and they put one slice of bacon in the bagel. My boyfriend ordered bacon, egg, and cheese on a poppy seed bagel with ham and they gave him a plain bagel and no bacon. Would not recommend unless you want a fast bagel and don't care how to make it. read more

The Bagel House - Bagels Near Me - Glenside, Pennsylvania

Such a neat place! We walked into beach boys blasting and there were just great vibes. The place is small, quiet, and quaint. They have every type of bagel you could dream of. We got egg, meat, and cheese bagels for breakfast and they were out of this world! It does take a little bit of time because it's a small operation but totally worth the wait. Pro tip: bring cash. They give you a 3% discount for using cash. Other than bagels they serve wraps and sandwiches as well. Seating is an issue so if you're trying to sit down they only have two outdoor tables and some benches. No seating inside due to the size of the place. read more

You just need to know what you are getting into. There is minimal to no seating and tables. This is more like a order and go place. The service was friendly and fast, but it also was not super busy when I stopped for lunch. I got turkey on a bagel with a coffee. I do think it's overpriced. I expected it after reading other reviews before I went so I wasn't too surprised. Turkey on a bagel with cheese $11 and a coffee $4. I would stop back eventually because the food was good, but for the price it's just not a place I am going to regularly stop. I try to support local businesses as much as I can, but for a basic black cup of coffee $4 just seemed steep. There was also only one size (large). It would've been great to have a smaller option for a cheaper price because I really didn't want to spend $4 for a basic coffee. Could I go to Wawa and get the same size coffee and a bagel sandwich for under $10 total, yes probably. They do make homemade flavored cream cheese though which sounds good, so that might be something worth trying. read more

Ugh do not go here!! friendly staff, but incredibly overpriced!! Bagels are definitely nothing special

I was a regular here but I'm done. Went in this weekend and ordered two of "The Bagel House" from their menu. Their website says the sandwich should cost $3.59, the menu on the counter says the sandwich should cost $3.59, however, the menu on the wall reflects price changes and the sandwich increased by 95% to $5.99. It's literally $6 for a bagel with cream cheese, cucumber, tomato, and onion. I asked to substitute regular cream cheese for vegetable cream cheese. While I understand this could result in an upcharge, the upcharge was insane. The total for two bagels with vegetable cream cheese, cucumber, tomato, and onion came to $17.21. On what planet should this have cost $8.60 per bagel? Even in the highest rent neighborhood in New York this bagel wouldn't cost more than $5. They seem to have gotten greedy or delusional with their updated pricing. If they want to price gouge like this the least they could do is have accurate pricing on their website. I won't be back. read more

I am such a picky bagel eater and I haven't had a consistent place since Roxy bagel closed. There is a place by my work that is good enough, but it's just missing something. While at home last week, I decided I wanted a bagel for breakfast and one for an awesome tuna sandwich I wanted to make at lunch. I yelped some places and saw there was one close by. I jumped in my car and made my way to the Bagel House. The owner, Steve, introduced himself to me and we chatted for a bit. He used to run Roxy! Awesome! I grabbed a baker's dozen and was on my way. I took some to my parent's house and brought some to my wife and some of her co-workers. Spreading the word and spreading the love. I enjoyed my bagels and I enjoyed the cream cheese too. Even though this is in the opposite direction from my work, I might pick up bagels for my co-workers from here in the future. This is most likely my go-to spot now. My wife enjoys unique flavors more than me, but I prefer the texture of a bagel over the weird flavors you can get. This tastes like a real bagel. I'm happy. Four and a half star place, so I'm rounding up. read more

criminally overcharges. A dozen bagels and 2 small flavored cream cheese and I walk out of there down $58.75. they have the gall to flip the screen to add a tip. don't waste your time and money, they're no better than Thomas' bagels anyway! read more

Being born and raised in NYC its hard to find a bagel. Bagel house is amazing. Nice crusty out of the oven bagels. This place rocks. Dont eat the other crap in the area. Have a real bagel. read more

PSA: Taylor Ham, Egg, & Cheese - Was not warned that the *Taylor Ham is served as a deli cold-cut*...we would have gotten bacon if we knew that. Bagel sandwich was barely warm and we ate them as soon as we sat back in the car. Bagels taste good by themselves, but are on the smaller side. Friendly staff. read more

Our favorite bagel spot! Great and fast service.. Staff is very friendly! We always recommend the bagel house to anyone new to the area!

Great food and service. The sandwiches are delicious. They open very early so you can get your bagel fix on your way to work or school.

I purchased a BLT bagel sandwich from the Bagel House today. When I got to my destination I realized I paid a lot for the sandwich! I looked online at the menu and realized that the original price is $7.20. I'm not sure how the price rose up to $10 & change but it did! A little disappointed because the sandwich was worth $5, only one slice of lettuce & one tomato. The customer service was great! But I'm not satisfied with the price of the sandwich, and what I actually received with my order. read more

Easily one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had in a while. They really pack it on and have big sized bagels!

Pretty good, and definitely a worthy alternative to Starbucks (but no indoor seating). Ditto those who found The Bagel House oddly pricey, though. And (note to the owners) why put whitefish salad AND cream cheese on a bagel? The whitefish was very good, but only one schmear is needed, and the combo was too much. read more

I bought 6 bagels and two containers of cream cheese for $18.00. Yep $18.00. I'm not sure if I was incorrectly charged or what. When I went to pay the girl checking me out at the register she asked me if I wanted to leave a tip. A tip? For what? Really for what? I was shocked I was asked this. I felt awkward. Awkward that she asked for a tip. And awkward that she expected me to leave a tip. So I left $1 bill in the tip jar. The girl seemed perplexed when I told her I would leave cash in The jar. She actually looked down in The tip jar to see what I left. It was my first time here buying bagels. The bagels were good. But to be asked for a tip was a complete turn of as I didn't find it to be an appropriate ask. I hope management reads these posts. Because this is a fast way to lose a new customer. read more

Excellent service and delicious bagels! I placed a large order, it was ready when I arrived and the bagels were fresh and warm. The staff even helped me carry the order to my car! Cannot say enough great things! read more

I haven't had bagels here so maybe they're good, but DO NOT under any circumstances get a corned beef special or sandwich here!! I ordered a plain corned beef sandwich for delivery, asked them to add Cole slaw, and checked off "do not toast" and chose potato salad as my (included) side. The sandwich arrived on very toasted bread and with lettuce and tomato on it!! And the cole slaw was iffy at best. Will NOT eat here again! read more

Friendly staff & good food! Wish the portions were a little bigger but I was just starving today

Great bagels. Family business - staff is wonderful!! My favorite when Im in town. It's a must!

I went to Bagel House today to buy 9 Bagels and a small tub of vegetable cream cheese on a recommendation from a friend. The bagels are very good, but didn't expect that my bill was over $32. $2.50 for a plain bagel? More expensive than NYC. Disappointed. read more

I'm annoyed they charged my $5 for a bottle of water. Bagel overpriced too not made with love

Their bagels rival New York's style bagels. The bagels are not too heavy, they have a nice light crispy crust and a very tender inner layer. They're chewy yet tender. The inner bread layer has just enough moistness that makes you hate to even toast them. The flavors offered are your typical varieties, but well worth the taste. You may find them a bit pricey, but it's a nice splurge. The server was pleasant and courteous. Stop in if your in the mood for a taste of New York. read more

Now I didn't score this place high on DoorDash because my order wasn't filled as requested. I was ready to pass on this place in the future because of the error, but after eating my bagel I CHANGED MY MIND. My Nova bagel was delicious. Even though it wasn't prepared the way I requested, I'm still willing to try this place again. Next time I'll call and go over my order first. read more
