If you want to see first hand the destruction Private Equity can do when they get their hands on a classic business here is your chance. Everything from the service to the quality has been striped out of this once great store. read more

What is in this turkey sandwich??? I don't know what it is, but I am in love with Western Bagel's turkey sandwich and I don't care who knows it! The turkey isn't dry at all it's actually so good. Also, if you are sleeping on Western Bagel's iced coffee, DON'T! I went to fill my cup up and saw that they were out of their regular iced coffee and only the vanilla was available. Usually I wouldn't go for vanilla, but I did and I loved it! Great flavor. Thinking about it now I want another one. This morning I went for breakfast and got a lox sandwich. Be sure to specifically if you want your sandwich open faced or not. Delicious as always! Service is always friendly and fast! The whole staff is always so professional. I've been coming to Western Bagel since I was a kid so it will always have a special place in my heart! I love that this location has lots of outdoor seating. read more

After reading around and doing some research, I decided to give this place a shot. Unfortunately, it completely fell short. The bagels were burnt, dry, tiny, and tasted stale. It's no wonder they have a low rating. Save your time and money~I definitely wouldn't recommend this place. read more

Went for the bagel special event with Brad . Today's location was in encino . I've never been and it's tucked behind a target store . Hard to see . But this location does have a restroom on location . Good bagel and ambiance .fast service . read more

Large selection of bagels. Very tasty and very fresh. I love that they have several types of whole wheat bagels. Plenty of easy and free parking in the lot behind the structure. Nice shaded outdoor seating area. Friendly helpful staff. Turkey bagel sandwich is delicious! read more

Western Bagel is located in the heart of Encino. Parking could be an issue, but we lucked out and found a meter with time on it. The place was packed but the service was quick so we breezed through the line. Very trendy restaurant. read more

My brother stopped off there. I did not go there and got me cinnamon raisin and egg bagels. They were so fresh and so good already had some money just got home. They're one of a few places still has a cinnamon raisin bagel. I wish that more raisins, but it's still really good and also the one a few places that still have egg bagels and their egg bagels are really good. I highly recommend this place. My family have been eating there for many many years. My dad used to go to Van Nuys on Sunday morning to get the very fresh bagels and bring them home for bagels and cheese and lox. read more

Food and service usually good. I would ask one favor, and it really should not be a favor. If a coffee flavor runs out, and the store still is open for 2 to 3 hours, please make another pot. Not very hard to do, just a filter, grounds, push the button and off we go. I've even offered to buy 2 cups, so they have less chance of it being left over at closing time. Honestly , I go to other Western Bagel locations sometimes, because this is not an issue, and I don't need the push back. Enough sh*t in life to deal with. read more

Okay.. before my recent visit here, I was of the mind that a bagel spot is just a "bagel" spot! But my last visit here really gave me a completely different appreciation for bagels. Not only is Western Bagel one of the largest bagel suppliers in the entire country, but they are family owned and make 5000+ bagels in an hour! Super impressive!!! AND their bagels are just delicious! I got the egg-ala-bagel with turkey and garlic herb cream cheese on the Cinnamon Crunch bagel and when I say it wassss gooood it was gooooot! One of the best breakfast sandwhiches I've ever had. The encino/tarzana location still has a family, mom & pop style feel and though it's in a relatively new shopping plaza, it's easy to find and still has that family-vibe that makes you just feel the love that went into making these bagels. Seriously quality that cannot be beat! Yum!!! read more

Great go to breakfast bagel spot ! Love the options fresh bagels friendly staff and timeliness to grab and go!

I would leave zero stars. The staff here is incompetent and unbearable. This location needs to be run under new management. There is no shortage of staff and somehow I'm waiting in line to be helped. read more

Delicious, fresh & great customer service from Trey! Visiting the area for a baseball tournament & was in the mood for a bagel! Thanks to Yelp I found you & wasn't disappointed. Ordered the bacon , egg & cheese bagel and a toasted cinnamon raisin bagel with strawberry cream cheese. Both were delicious! Trey answered all of my questions about the extensive menu & offered great suggestions. I would definitely recommend Western Bagel to friends and family & will be back when I'm in the area! read more

I visited this location recently and unfortunately had a really disappointing experience. The employee who helped me was very rude and made me feel unwelcome the entire time I was ordering. Customer service matters just as much as the food, and this interaction completely ruined the visit. The boy i don't remember his full name but something with a B was working the counter and was extremely rude during my visit. He spoke to me with a harsh tone, seemed annoyed that I was ordering, and made the interaction uncomfortable from start to finish. Customer service should never make someone feel unwelcome, and this behavior really stood out. On top of that, the food itself was not good and didn't seem fresh. I was honestly surprised given the reviews. I'm leaving this feedback in hopes that management takes it seriously and improves both the service and food quality, because right now I wouldn't recommend this place. read more

Friendly workers, incredible food, pretty safe atmosphere for LA, and great prices. What more can you ask for?

Average solid 3.2 Customer service responded. I got the "traditional bagel" which is a lox bagel but somehow came with lettuce on it. Decent bagel, but the lox was horrible. It was SO over salted, and I LOVE salt. Thank got it was just two small pieces per bagel half. The cost? $21.00 which included a small coffee. read more

This is my favorite western bagel location. Kind staff, fast service, and great variety of bagels. The bagels are always fresh and flavorful. Conveniently located in the same plaza as a Target. Metered parking upfront or free lot. read more

Natalie is the best and hardest worker there!!!! Give her a promotion!!! She made my sandwich PERFECT and has the best customer service

Lidia helped me this morning and was so kind and excellent at her job. She really should be considered as a manager. The manager was rough and extremely out of line. Not sure what her problem was today. read more

The breakfast sandwich - egg, cheese, bacon, everything bagel - with added hash brown is melt-in-your-mouth divine. It's also an outlandish price of $10... Hence the 4 stars instead of 5 stars. Still, that doesn't stop the morning crowd from indulging in pastries, bagels, spreads, and coffee here. There's always a line out the door on weekends. The hype is well-warranted. There's something for everyone here. Delicious, hearty food made in front of you in a few minutes' time - once you actually get up to the front and get assistance, that is. Grab your food to-go or else sit at the tables inside or outside. Plenty of room in the general area, too. This is a small shop in a plaza by Planet Fitness and Shake Shack. There's ample parking in the structure in the back, or else metered street parking out front. read more

This place is amazing! Every time I come to visit California (the valley to be specific) I make sure to stop here and get a bagel. I REALLY appreciate Amber's help (the lady with the blue hair!!) on choosing "what I'm in the mood for this time!" She makes the whole experience a 10/10 read more

HORRIBLE customer service!! Employee handed over the bag and said here you go. Got home and there were NO bagels! Only the cream cheese and lox. Had to make the 25 minute drive back to get the bagels. No apology or offer of goodwill!! read more

My family and I have gone to your Encino location since we moved here in 2011. Food is always great, fresh, tasty, etc. However, the customer service has tanked! Extremely slow, not very efficient (taking the toppings on and off several times to get them in the right order) fooling around, talking to each other while they should be working and consequently messing up orders, and being somewhat rude. Fix the employee situation please - because we love WB!! read more

I love the bagels from here. Always fresh and they don't tend to run out (at least not in my experience). I ordered the turkey sandwich on everything cheese. As always, delicious. They have ample parking in the back. I just wish they were open later. They are open daily from 5:00-3:00 read more

I absolutely love the bagels here! Prices are fair, and they are always fresh and delicious. They have a good variety of sweet and savory flavors, I am partial to the savory ones. Friendly and efficient, ideal for stocking up at home! read more

Been ordering from here frequently and every selection has been on point! We got the buy one, get one deal once when we ordered the Everything Cheese Bagel along with the Garlic & Herb Cream Cheese. We each had a hash brown as well, which made the experience even better. We try to get something new every time and it is always a fun and unique experience upon each order! read more

When you place an online order to be picked up at a particular time is usually for a reason, such as myself who ordered ahead to save time I was short on, only to walk in and see a completely empty restaurant barely start my order. The excuse was that there was big rush beforehand, but not a customer in the store. Lame employees, especially the Donald McDonald guy with red hair, sweeping away and not doing orders. read more

I am giving 5 stars because the bagels are truly excellent and I grew up with western bagel. Employees are good......But my issue is the cost!. Prices have doubled since the pandemic. The reason might because they are trying to transition to a deli, from a bagel shop. But $1.70 per regular bagel, or $2.70 per specialty bagel seems excessive if they are trying to remain the western bagel that we go in and order two dozen for a family brunch. A hygiene appt in my office before the pandemic cost 140 bagels....today that same hygiene appointment is about 80 bagels. We have increased our fees as everything around us has gone up, from salaries, to equipment, and supplies, and rent. But we have calculated our costs and have increased only by that much. Western Bagel should offer us an explanation. in the meantime, I put my family on a diet, and our brunches now only include one dozen. read more

It's a bagel chain, but one of the most consistent in the valley. Western Bagel has been around for a long time but still stays pretty busy for weekend breakfast. I love the jalapeño cheese bagels here as well as the lox spread. This can't compete with Courage Bagels or some of the other elite bagels of LA, but if you're in a mood for a bagel and one of these are your closest options, you will be satisfied. 7.8/10 read more
