But I'm glad I decided to go!! I ordered a Zhug on a Goldie's bagel, added turkey sausage, and a side of avocado smash. It was glorious. It was everything I wanted and more! But that Zhug sauce!?!? I want to eat that on everything!!!!! They make challah on Fridays and have latkes, and other pastries as well. They also have pastrami, which I will be going to try! The inside is so cute and eclectic. The brick building and bagel counter are NYC reminiscent. And all the employees were kind and working hard at making bagels. I honestly love everything about Goldie's and can't wait to go back!!

It's fine. Goldie's has very nice employees, but the bagel was nothing special. Very average. I…read moredon't get the hype and wouldn't make any effort to go back. They're kosher so there's no pork - turkey-based breakfast meats if that matters to you. The bagel was actually kind of small/thin and I was surprised by that. We had Maccabees and the latke was the best part. I will say the eggs were cooked well - not tough, no brown spots, tender. But overall this was a miss for us. Sorry.

This was such a cute spot! The lady at the register was wonderful!…read more I learned about this place simply from the bakery crawl! I'm happy I did. Located in soulard. This bagel place is YUMMY!! It is hard to find a real bagel place in the Midwest. STL is extremely lucky to have this place. I got a bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a onion and garlic bagel Being someone who grew up on New York bagels & New York bakeries. I can happily say that this is very impressive place!! Jalapeño cheddar bagel YESSS!! It's a nice spot to sit and eat inside or outside. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. You can also sit and read or even work. It's just a nice little spot!

A lot of my coworkers highly recommend it so I knew I had to try. We finally had a morning playing at the market, and decided to swing in for breakfast. WOW. It definitely lives up to the hype. Their bagels are SO flavorful, and their sandwich options are delighful. I just got the standard egg and cheese on the onion bagel and it was SO GOOD. My husband got the pruscuitto sandwich and he was a big fan. For what you get, I think the pricing is super fair. Really cool you also get to see the kitchen and everything they're making in back. We will absolutely be back, and will recommend it to all our friends who visit!

I also recently tried the sump cold brew, and it was delicious. The interior is small and bustling, so I would recommend ordering to-go. The staff works quickly but is attentive.

Young lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful in picking flavors. Store is clean and bright. Smells wonderful! Was disappointed that not all of the flavors are available all the time, was there almost an hour ahead of one being available to sell, boo... Also wished that they would have asked about slicing the bagels for us, would have been very helpful. Still the best bagels in town!

Having an Aussie wife and living in NYC the bar is set pretty high for what a good coffee tastes like, and every oat latte and cappuccino we've gotten has been just as good as back home.

Recently spent some time in New York and was happy with the bagels - non chewy, not tuff, soft, and consistent throughout. I went with the New York New York option, ample meat was between my bagel halves. Very filling and great taste. I opted for the potato salad as my side, it is mustard based. Potato salad is always Russian Roulette for someone that does not like crunchy onions in their food -- this one passed the test. The flavor was there but no big chunks of raw onion were to be crunched while enjoying my meal. (Please never change that) Great friendly service. Refills on fountain sodas and tea available. Would definitely recommend.

Woke up and started wanting bagels and heard great things about this from our friend…read more We came by and were greeted warmly! This place is more of a breakfast/sandwich spot first, before it is a bagel shop so don't come here expecting a TON of bagel varieties. Nevertheless, it was still good for breakfast. I got a salt bagel for my BEC, and my husband got cinnamon raisin for his sausage, egg, and cheese. I also ordered a buttered plain bagel for my son. We didn't wait too long, and they gave my son a sticker that he played with while we waited. The bagels were nice and chewy, and I loved that they didn't skimp out on any of the ingredients. The buttered bagel though was VERY buttery, so be ready to wipe your hands a lot while eating it. It was still very good!

I parked on a side street although there are a few spots in the parking lot with the picnic tables. Waited outside behind another couple as it was busy. After going in you wait in line to place your order. There are lots of things to look at! Line moved quickly, counter service was super friendly and efficient. She was charming and helpful. I ordered the Tzitzelnickel bagel with veggie schmear, a biscuit to try, coffee, and a sesame hoagie. After making my coffee at the counter, I had a seat at one of the outside picnic tables. My food came out right away, so fast! I love that bagel with the veggie schmear! You can order breakfast sandwiches on a bagel or on the biscuit, it was huge and would stand up to a hearty sandwich. Can't wait to eat the sesame hoagie! Plain or use it for a sandwich

After we ordered coffee, they looked at us and told us it would be 5-10 minutes. They had no milk and were out of creamer. Again, authentic to the community - you should order black coffee here & not past 8:30z As we sat & I realized, I leaned in and said, did you realize it's almost 11:00? Honestly, neither of us realized until after we sat down that the breakfast rush was long over and they were essentially brewing a pot just for us. They were very nice & accommodated but, boy did I feel bad once it dawned on me. Enjoyed both our bagel & knish.

Definitely worth checking out.
