This place is fantastic. Cold brew + Bagels = Heaven. Anisah makes the best cold foam, and overall I have never been disappointed when she is working. She is kind and friendly, and has yet to make a single mistake on an order. My favorite bagel on the menu is the jalapeno cheddar with plain cheese, toasted and halved. The bacon egg and cheese is delicious. I have not been inside yet, just drive-thru. There have been multiple mistakes with my orders: missing cream cheese, not toasted, burnt bagel, but each time the worker is very kind and corrects the mistake. I work close by so I have been there every day and whenever Anisah is working I know it will turn out perfect. She needs to run some kind of training program at this point! read more

Wow! Wow! WoW! First I'm a Rosemary lover! Everything, anything Rosemary, so shocked to see Rosemary bagels, are you kidding me?!! After taking a few pictures, I looked over their bagel menu. Plain, sesame, jalapeño cheddar, Asiago, blueberry, cinnamon to name a few. Rosemary was going to be my bagel of choice. Now do I want one of their 10 cream cheese? Or do I want to make a sandwich out of it? Cream cheese flavors are jalapeño, strawberry, blueberry, honey, chocolate hazelnut, and a few more. Decided on the avocado toast bagel. But other sandwiches are bacon egg and cheese, Austin Lox, which has scallions capers, cucumber, and other goodies. Turkey mozzarella, pastrami, breakfast BLT, caprese, and turkey avocado, just an array of sandwiches, and you pick your bagel. They sell Bagels single, half dozen & dozen, but if you need a large order, obviously call ahead so they can accommodate your order and have bagels for the store. Common sense right? Plenty of tables inside, a wall of bench seating, and a short high top bar against the painted window. Outside lots of parking. A couple tables for outside seating, and a small bike rack too. Owner is very present today, which is Sunday morning. He's super nice, making sure everyone is happy with their order. Super chill and great atmosphere. Now my rosemary avocado bagel. Thick spread of avocado. Something I always look for in avocado spread is having small chunks of avocado. This fulfills my desire. Rosemary bagel, didn't have a strong rosemary taste. Which is because the thick spread of avocado, and the everything seasoning on top, along with a light sprinkle of chili flakes, which I loved. So I sacrificed the rosemary for the chili flakes, and I'm not mad at it. I'm sure Rosemary will come through better with a cream cheese spread instead. Just makes me want to come back and try more other menu items. I ordered an iced chai latte with coconut milk. Super happy they have coconut. Most places only offer oatmeal, and I'm over it. My barista made it so perfectly. I also bought their most adorable bear GLASS cup. Glass, not plastic. I was thrilled. It's cute AF! And did I mention it's glass?!! When my barista handed it to me, she was like let me know if you want it stronger, or more coconut milk. I took a sip real quick and said, nope, oh my gosh, it's so perfectly made. When I came in, I was the only one in here. 1 couple came in after my order. By the time I sat down and started eating, like 3 minutes, the place got packed. Wow, this is the place to be in Cedar Park on a Sunday. You know when it's good when people pack in after you. Fantastic service. My cashier was super friendly when I told her it was my first time. My barista is accommodating, and the owner helped me carry my goodies to my table. Personal touch. This is the bagel bar like Cheers TV Show. This was a 30 minute drive for me. But I'd totally come back here again on my day off. Probably buy 6 bagels to take home. Jalapeño cream cheese, or maybe scallion. Till next time. Thank you for a great experience. Forgot to mention. If you bring your glass bear cup back in, they give a discount for the re-use of the cup. That's very nice to offer. read more

The avocado bagel was completely unseasoned--I honestly couldn't eat it. How do you serve avocado without even a little salt? Once I added salt myself, it tasted much better. I also got the garlic butter bagel. It was a little stiff and hard to chew, but it was still okay. Maybe next time I'll try the egg and cheese on a different bagel. The staff were friendly, even though it was busy inside. The atmosphere was nice, and the food came out pretty quickly. read more

Bagel Bear - Bagels Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

Truly one of the best bagel shops around. I'm pretty particular about bagels, some places are extremely overrated, but this is one I'd highly recommend if you're looking for a great bagel, whether it's a simple bagel with cream cheese or a breakfast sandwich. I get breakfast here every time, and they've never let me down. I do recommend ordering ahead since it can get busy because it's so popular, but it's worth it. This is my go-to spot whenever I'm craving bagels for breakfast. read more

I tried Bagel Bear yesterday for the first time and absolutely loved it! The owner Mo is soooo kind! The atmosphere is nice and very clean. It would be a great place to come meet friends or plug your laptop in and have something good to eat and a coffee. He has excellent coffee and makes the bagels and spreads fresh. The bathrooms are also super clean. I got bagels to take home and definitely recommend the za'atar bagel and I love the date cream cheese and the honey. The jalapeño cream cheese is amazing if you like spicy! read more

Bagel Bear - A za'atar Austin Lox Bagel Sandwich with jalapeño cream cheese. Sooooo good! - Bagels Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

I have been coming to bagel bear for about a year now, and I can honestly say these are the best bagels in Austin. The owners are from Brooklyn so you get that authentic New York bagel with a sourdough twist. They have several in house options in terms of pastries! It's not just bagels either they have house made drinks and pastries that are equally amazing. The owners are here daily always with a smile and friendly attitude. We come here nearly every weekend and the owners and staff are always happy to see us. One of the staff members Anisa has even taken the time to get to know our names and order, and always puts a smile on our face during a trip. Family owned and operated with amazing food, drinks, and staff what more could you want! read more

GET HERE NOW! The bagels have such great flavor and the TEXTURE is to die for. The homemade cream cheese was an explosion of flavor and if we ate bagels more I would have gotten a whole tub of it. The bacon, egg and cheese was made fresh and you could tell the quality of the ingredients! The workers were very nice and personable! You need get get here asap and have a delicious bagel and coffee! read more

Updating my review due to rude service. Walked in this morning, there was no greeting/welcome in, which is fine. I asked the young lady working the front counter if they still had their date cream cheese, as I thought this was possibly a seasonal flavor, and she offered me a condescending smile and pointed to the menu. A simple reply yes/no could've sufficed but all she said to me was "look at the menu". She did let me try the date cream cheese. Then I tried asking her more questions what I wanted to order and she just kept telling me to look at the menu instead of answering my questions, which was rude. I gave up and just ordered what I had last time because she was so unhelpful. They were so much nicer to the customers after me and greeted them as soon as they walked in. The bagels are delicious, but I personally wouldn't return due to rude service. The original woman who took my order the first time I visited was very polite, warm, and great manners. Not sure why their staff was unfriendly today. read more

This is my second time stopping by, and it's a must stop for bagel lovers in the area. The staff is warm and friendly and greets everyone who walks in. Today they were offering samples of different flavors. Bagels are massive and delicious. read more

Bagel Bear - Weekend specials - Bagels Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

My new favorite bagel spot in Cedar Park! I was craving a lox bagel and decided to treat myself. I came in around 9 AM on a Wednesday, and it was nice and quiet. There was only one other person there working on their laptop. Since it was my first time, the man working there offered me free bagel samples and helped me choose the best bagel type for the Austin Lox. He explained that all of their bagels are sourdough, with bagels sourced from Philadelphia and salmon from New York. I noticed a sign listing their cream cheese flavors and was shocked to see a date flavor. I mentioned I would try it next time and he went to the back and brought me a generous sample that was at least a couple of tablespoons. It was so good. I also ordered an iced Dubai latte with oat milk. It tasted like an iced mocha, just a bit more bitter and similar to dark chocolate or a French hot chocolate. I would 100% come back. The staff was so nice, the shop is super cute, and there is plenty of parking in the shopping center. read more

My friend and I met here for lunch. I had a BLT everything bagel and an iced oat milk latte. Both were tasty. There were several bagel options from sweet to savory. A gentleman, who I believe to be the owner or manager, greeted and held conversations with customers as they came in. The atmosphere was nice. The room was painted in neutral colors with several tables and chairs for two available for seating. I will say if you're a tall person you may find the chairs a bit low. My friend is 6'3" and I was worried that her knees would be in her chest, but she seemed to manage just fine. Overall, this place has good food and good vibes. read more

Hands down one of the best bagel options in Austin area... yes I know it's in cedar park, but really the options in the city don't compare... I've tried them all (David roughies, rock star, Casper, Rosens, etc). Owner is amazing and from NYC... learned there and has recently moved to the area. Really great unique flavors and tasty coffee/drinks too. Highly recommend!! The BEC is amazing but they have date cream cheese that is insane. read more

We got the churro bagel with honey cream cheese and the Austin Lox . I liked them both. I would probably get the regular lox next time. This sandwich was big and falling apart a little. My SF vanilla latte was on point and my girl liked her medium cold brew with vanilla and honey syrup with vanilla cold brew. I am not a fan of cold brew. It was too strong for me. As for customer service.... It was top notch. Everyone was friendly and attentive. read more

We went here this morning for my work I ordered 3 dozen bagels. The lady who assisted us was rude she said next time give me 1-2 days notice for big orders. I should have walked out. It went downhill from there she didn't slice the bagels nor did she provide cream cheese. I didn't find out until I got to work. I will never go back to this place she was utterly rude and unprofessional. I will take my business elsewhere. read more

I'm so happy to have a great legit NYC bagel shop north of Austin-it was much needed! Love their sourdough bagels. My favorite is their sausage, egg, and cheese bagel sandwich . Their plain cream cheese on the everything bagel was also very good. The cream cheese is so creamy all made in house! I also tried their toasted marshmallow latte and it was good 8/10. Loved that it wasn't super sweet either! Staff is so friendly and their indoor space is quite spacious with a lot of tables. I'll be back for more! read more

We enjoyed our visit here! The actual bagels (the dough) of course were the best part and we tried one with bacon egg and cheese as well as one with smoked salmon. It was quite tasty and satiating which was nice and it was nice to see a variety of bagel opens available. I also didn't realize that they had a drive thru so I might have to utilize that next time for convenience's sake. I'll definitely be returning so I can try other bagels there! Shoutout to the lady making the drinks, she was very sweet. read more

Lovely bagel shop that opened not too long ago on Parmer, and I'm already a fan. Why? Mainly the friendliness of the owner Mo (With his New York roots) and his warmness every time I've visited. What I REALLY liked is the creativity of their bagel flavors. From Za'tar, rosemary to churro bagels alongside with the classics (like sesame, everything and plain ones) they make everything in house. Plenty of flavored cream cheeses as well, the date one was a huge hit with us as well as their scallion flavored one. Every time im in the area I pass by and get a lox bagel and a bag of bagels to take home. Unlike other bagel joints they're also open later which is a huge plus. The restaurant is cute as well with some really nice murals that are inviting. Highly recommended, and the prices are reasonable as well. Hope to see Bagel Bear stick around for a long time to come! read more

Visited Bagel Bear on my way to Cedar Park. The interior is spacious, clean, and full of natural light. I purchased the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel. The bagel itself had plenty of seasoning and a great texture. As for the sandwich, it's a good size but it needed a little something to make it more flavorful and bring it all together. I plan to return, but if I get a sandwich I'll add jalapeño cream cheese and get my bacon extra crispy. Service was quick and friendly! read more

Wow--what a find! This isn't your typical corporate bagel shop; this is the real deal. They're crafting artisanal, hand‑made bagels with high‑quality ingredients, and it shows in every bite. The garlic cream cheese was incredible--rich, bold, and bursting with flavor. We ordered the Austin Lox & Cream and the NYC Pastrami bagels, and both were absolutely delicious. The cold brew was smooth and refreshing as well. What really sets this place apart is the personal service from the staff and the owner, Mo. You can feel the pride and care in everything they do. The shop is spotless inside and out, with some great outdoor seating to enjoy your meal. If you're looking for fresh, flavorful, authentically made bagels, this is the spot in Austin. read more

The workers are friendly and patient for people like me who need a minute to decide what I want. I need to learn the hours so I don't show up when they are closed. I got the cheddar jalapeño bagel and had a turkey club with chips and I got a bagel to go. This is now my new bagel stop. read more

A lovely little local bagel shop. They have some good options that are unique (rosemary, sea salt, etc) as well as your typical go-to's (sesame, plain, cheese, etc). I got the rosemary bagel with scallion cream cheese and it was delicious, although I definitely need a mint afterwards. The bagel itself was delicious, with a crunchy exterior but very fluffy airy internal breading. I will definitely go back! read more

If it was not for my local foodie page on Facebook, I would not have know about this place! It is located in a very unassuming strip mall next to a Shell gas station on Parmer Lane past Whitestone Blvd. (*If I had not put it into my Google Maps, I would not have found it). But, I am so glad I did. Once you walk in, it is very light and bright, and great mural (see pic). As previous reviewer said, I don't think they have ALL of what they are going to have, in regards to selection out yet, but they did have quite a few kinds out (Jalapeno Cheddar, Everything, Onion, Poppy, Sesame, and Za'atar). They had a couple of samples out, one being Sesame and the other Za'atar. If you have never tried Za'atar (*like me), try it! OMG, the spices are amazing, and definitely not something you would get any other bagel shop! Also, they MAKE THE BAGELS ON-SITE! You can tell the difference! The lady at cash register was super friendly! She explained all the choices they had and was very excited when I told her how I found them. I decided on trying the Za'atar bagel with plain cream cheese, and went with my favorite flavor, the "Everything" bagel, with (what another reviewer recommended here) the Date Cream Cheese. While I was waiting, the (owner or manager) came from kitchen and offered me a small iced tea (*not coffee as other reviewer had said). The tea was great! I don't like anything in my tea (No sugar or sweetener) and it had a great flavor! Thanks so much! Got home, and split with my husband, so each of us could try both. Only thing "bad" I would say, is it was waaaayyy tooo much cream cheese on the bagel. I took off about a Tablespoon off each one. But, the spices in the Za'atar was very good! And, that Date cream cheese was sweet, but not over sweet, and would get again too. Highly recommend, and would come back! read more
