    This is the college-town bagel shop that many of us living in non-college towns wish we had. (to say nothing of us living out west where apparently no one knows how to make bagels and no one knows why they don't) There is a way of custom options, many of them truly innovative! There are lots of bagel sando combos that I've never seen before! There are tons of options for every diet type as well! (great vegan and vegetarian options especially) Grab one for now, and one for later. (these would be great hiking snacks...the envy of your group)

    Roasted red pepper Asiago bagel with jalapeño cream cheese

    Staff was welcoming and friendly! Our order came up quickly and it was spot on. Fresh bagels and great selection. The place itself is quirky but it works! Laundromat right next door if you wanna multitask!

    A little gem in this neighborhood. We got there when it seemed to be quiet--before 8am on a Monday morning. There was no line at all. When we walked in, I have to be honest, the menu was a little overwhelming but we made it. We got the local sausage, egg and cheddar on a sesame bagel and the Bolt. Both bagels were solid. I liked how it was made right then and there. The menu shows you all of the items that are locally sourced which is great. The main highlights-- the local sausage and the Bolt. They had a few baked goods on the counter. We opted for the strawberry pop tart. And we are thankful that we did. It was delicious!

    No frills, this bagel shop has got the goods. Both bagels we ordered were extremely delicious and well worth every penny. This location doesn't have any indoor dining, but there are a number of picnic tables available for use, which is particularly nice on a warm day. Rufus' Steak and Eggs (On a Cheddar Jalapeño Chive Bagel) - Really liked this one. The roast beef and banana peppers were great, and the bagel was awesome. I highly recommend the cheddar jalapeño bagel. I would definitely order this one again, though there are so many good options here. Rusko's Lox (On a Sesame Bagel) - Good portions of lox on a tasty bagel. The cream cheese tasted fresh (I always love scallions in cream cheese). Another highly recommended option! Price: 5/5 Quality: 5/5 Quantity: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5

We're native New Yorkers and weaned on old school New York traditional savory bagels (and Kossar's bialys) ... before Cinnamon, Everything or (yikes) Rainbow bagels existed. That said, we're open to other combinations to go with our smoked fish.... which is mostly whitefish salad or lox. Myer's offers a range of savory Montreal-style bagels that we've certainly ended up preferring to that city's "too sweet for us" Fairmount or St. Viateur Bagels. Myer's still uses Montreal techniques for hand-rolled, honey-boiled and wood-fired, with a comparable size - but they do it sooo much better!!! Without a doubt, truly artisan. My favorite Myer's bagel varieties are Montreal Spice, Rosemary Sea Salt, and Kitchen Sink! Especially always bring back Montreal Spice to my NYC home or have an outstanding order with my Burlington-transplant kinfolk when they come to visit. This awesome new location on Shelburne Road is a great setting. Everyone there is also super friendly, including the manager Chris. Highly recommend making Myer's a destination to eat (or pick up eats) when in town!

This place has become part of my regular routine, and it consistently delivers. The food is exactly what you want from a bagel shop. My go-to order is the Catamount on a poppy seed bagel with a side of hashbrowns, and it hits the spot every single time. The bagels themselves have that perfect chewy texture with just enough crust, and the poppy seed adds a nice nutty flavor that complements the sandwich beautifully. Those hashbrowns on the side? Crispy, golden, and the perfect companion to round out the meal. The service here is efficient and friendly. Even when there's a line (which there often is, because it's that good), the staff keeps things moving without making you feel rushed. They clearly know what they're doing and have the morning rush down to a science. As for ambiance, it's got that comfortable, no-frills vibe that a neighborhood bagel spot should have. It's not trying to be anything fancy, just a solid place to grab quality breakfast or lunch. Whether you're popping in for a quick takeout order or settling in for a bit, it works. Burlington Bagel Bakery is one of those reliable spots that does what it does well. If you're in the area and need a satisfying bagel sandwich, this is your place.

It was only for myself and I was a pleased when they were able to get me a seat at the bar right away. It was a very busy Saturday morning but I was helped right away. I chose this restaurant due to them having vegan options and I remember how good it was when I got it in Portland, Maine. The employees were friendly, the food was great. I got the vegan scramble and pancakes (highly recommend)!

Last year, I remember the pancakes being super fluffy and satisfying. They may have changed the menu in the past year, because now they're vegan and gluten-free, and you can tell. A bit dry, not as fluffy, and smaller than I recall. Definitely need syrup, but I do love that you get a little bottle of real maple syrup with them. Some vegan butter could help them but this place doesn't stock that. I also ordered a side of tofu scramble (again, just ran a marathon) and it was very dry. However, I asked for hot sauce and tried their housemade maple turmeric hot sauce and that made the dish. Not too sweet, not too spicy - they should sell this by the bottle! Five stars for atmosphere. If you want a fun diner experience that's cute and not dingy, Friendly Toast delivers. Drinks-wise, I just ordered black coffee. It's very dark and very strong. I watched the bartender and he was making some fun-looking drinks ... can't comment on how they taste but the little juice flight looked appealing (and Instagram-worthy).
