We got a midday takeout brunch (Apr 2026) with visiting friends from the new location that the Ellicott City Bagel Bin recently moved to, a little west of their previous location. Their bagels are still great! We got their bagel and nova lox on a toasted freshly-made sesame bagel, and another on a toasted freshly-made poppy-seed bagel. Both were generously stuffed with flavorful smoked salmon and a thick whole schmear of dense cream cheese. The tomato slices were sweet and fresh. The sliced red onions had a nice bite. The sprinkling of capers added a little excitement to each bite. And for the little one, a simple scrambled egg on a warm plain bagel. Bagel Bin now shares a space with Roma's Pizza and Subs! So we also got a tasty ham and cheese hoagie on a toasty ciabatta roll, with hot crispy-coated fries. It had tender thin-sliced ham and cheddar. Simple. Perfect. This is a great combination of restaurants that made us all happy with their breakfast and lunch menus! read more

Great bagel spot in the Ellicott City area. Today I tried the Dr. Seuss and I am indeed a fan of green eggs and ham now. The pesto eggs are fantastic! I added scallion cream cheese to this and it was awesome! Shop was bopping with lots of people but my food came out quick and staff were very friendly. Awesome place for breakfast, lunch or fresh baked goods! read more

Bagel Bin - Dr. Seuss - Bagels Near Me - Ellicott City, Maryland

Underrated. Don't get me wrong the Romas is some . They serve you a stick of butter with a side of a bagel

This local neighborhood breakfast spot offers fresh bagels, smears and brewed coffee. Food: I ordered a bacon, egg white and cheese egg bagel. It was really good and they don't skimp on the bacon or eggs. Also they have egg whites! This is a huge plus! You can buy Ceremony Coffee here! (Which is a popular coffee roaster in Baltimore) I also ordered half a dozen fresh bagels to go, even a day later the bagels are still delicious. Service: The staff here is friendly and focused on giving each customer excellent service. Ambiance: Minimal. This is a very popular local gathering place on Saturday mornings. They have newspapers available for guests to read while you sip on your coffee. This place is busy on weekends, I think this is a popular local breakfast spot. I saw groups of friends, families, and high schoolers, enjoying their breakfast. If you can't find seating inside there's overflow seating outside, just make sure you order a coffee to stay warm. Overall: Locally owned and operated. Family friendly Lots of seating Fresh bagels Large portions Local hang out I'll be back! read more

Basic sanitation. Though the bagels are great all is a turn-off once you see not one soul connected to this scrumptious product is wearing a head covering - not the woman taking the order, not the man preparing it and most disappointing not the man with the pony tail making/baking these morning delights. I don't see the issue. You're not going to a party. You're fixing bagels. Put on a hair net so we don't get strands of hair stuck in the throat and become ill or worse. read more

Fast service with great food! Ordered the Mbappe which is bacon, egg, cheese, and sausage on a bagel of my choice. Its delicious and well made. Great quality ingredients were used to make such a good meal. read more

My brother and I decided to grab a quick bite after their relocation. We ordered two breakfast sandwiches, come to find out, the person taking the order only placed one sandwich into the system. We waited patiently and when it was ready, they only brought out one sandwich. I told the person who took my order that we wanted two sandwiches. He takes back the one sandwich into the back, doesn't tell anyone other staff what's going on, he then gets on the phone, other staff comes up asking what's going on, I explain, another staff asks what's going on, I explain, they're looking for that one sandwich that was taken to the back for no reason at all. There's no process and order in their operations. The manager comes up front hostile and asks what's going on, so at this point I've already explained to several staff what's going on, the entire time, the person who took my order was still on the phone taking orders, when he simply could have put them on hold to explain the situation. The manager had the nerve to tell me to watch my attitude, lmao. I asked for my money back, and they even struggled to give my money back. This place and their management is rock bottom. I will never come back to this establishment. And to the manager, if you're reading this, why did you act like you a tough guy? Trying to impress your staff? Do your job and teach your staff how to take orders. read more

Yaaay! A great bagel place near my house! The bagels are really good. They've got just the right crunch on the outside and texture on the inside. And they offer a great variety too. The staff is so friendly! They welcome you as soon as you enter and are glad to take your order. Lots of windows so it's very bright. I'm looking forward to going back often! So glad I stumbled into this place because I'd given up on getting good bagels in my neighborhood. read more

The Bagel Bin moved from their old location into a new spot with Roma's Pizza very recently. I have ordered food from them for years and it was always good quality and nice portions. I ordered a turkey sandwich on a bagel today and when it got here it literally had 2 slices of processed turkey. They used to give large portions of FRESH turkey. I don't know if it's new management or what, but this is very disappointing. May try a breakfast sandwich in the future, but will never order a lunch sandwich from there again. read more

Customer service. The girl there didn't hear nothing I said so instead of asking me to repeat myself she put down whatever was close to what she heard. To the point she put down "idk couple" as my name for the order cause she wasn't paying attention read more

I tried their bagels again yesterday because Einsteins was closed. I got a short black hair on the cream cheese on my bagel. I have long brown hair so it didn't come from me. Two of the three guys preparing the bagels yesterday had short black hair. I'm done. Never again going here. read more

Since bottoms up bagels closed, I have been in the hunt for good bagels. These are not a 1:1 replacement, but this place is great. Service was friendly and helpful. Parking was easy. Most importantly, the bagels were good! My wife and I went with our pups early on a Sunday morning, and we might need to make this a weekly thing. Ready to go back soon. read more

We're during lunch hours and it wasn't crowded but still lots of takeouts order. It was our 1st time dining in so there's a lil bit confusion of where's line to order and who's taking order, a lesson to learn maybe we should just order (talk) louder next time. We had blueberries bagel with cream cheese, you can definitely taste the blueberries in every single bites. That's our lil one favorite! The jalapeño bagel egg salad was outstanding with jalapeño hot hint, it's definitely a repeat order! The everything bagel with Meat (bacon), Egg and cheese was delicious! You should try!! It was like visiting your grandparents for breakfast experience, and make yourself like home! Overall everything was great! We'll back for more bagels! read more

Bagel Bin moved to Pizza Shop . Bagels don't taste fresh and are not the same . Too bad . A real disappointment.

I got the roast beef sandwich and it was pretty good! the staff was very nice and truly wanted me to have a good experience!

My salad with chicken was a good size, and the chicken tasted delicious. The employee who waited on me was pleasant but not overly so. I was meeting a friend for a business lunch, and we were there for a while. I noticed that the employees were busy working. The restaurant was clean but not very crowded. I saw a few take-outs and only 1 other group dining in. It was Wednesday around 1. read more

Absolutely solid bagel and coffee joint. quite good bagels with a nice crust and crumb. My bacon/egg/cheese on an everything was generous and very neatly constructed. My primary reason for breakfast in Columbia... visiting Mom at the memory care in which she resides is no more as she passed on Memorial Day. but It is good to have in your pocket if you headed North on I95 and need Breakfast when your'e passing the many Columbia exits. I will offer it was as good a meat/egg/cheese bagel as I've ever had. and I am admittedly kind of a bagel snob. counter service was personable and not overly chatty. Coffee was good if not very good, fresh and hot. read more

I have been going to Bagel Bin for years with my family and since the new ownership my parents refuse to go back because they say they ruined the bagels. I still go because I enjoy the food, however they used to be open until 9pm before Covid, now they "close at 2". That is insanely early for a restaurant to be closed for the day. I attempted to go this afternoon and I was at the door 10 mins before closing and all I wanted was a bagel toasted with butter, but they let me know that they'd closed early. 2 is already PLENTY early. I'm very disappointed, I used to love this place. EDIT: I wrote this review yesterday and tried to go once again today because I was really craving that bagel still and I sh*t you not they closed early again, this time at 1PM! I'm genuinely confused why a breakfast/lunch place would be closed so early. read more

Stopped here because I wanted to try local businesses Very cheerful service and fast My sandwich is good Got lox and bagel which is my standard Definitely would recommend Only 4 star because first time visiting read more

Bagel Bin - a bagel in a paper bag - Bagels Near Me - Ellicott City, Maryland

Went for the first time. Can say at least the deli meat isn't spoiled, it's STILL FROZEN on BOTH hoagies. Not a great first impression but it's a lasting bad impression. Won't be back here for hoagies. At least their employees were polite...pretty much the only thing going for them. Can't wait till their newest competition opens less then a mile away from here! Grabbing food to actually eat in the moment shouldn't mean having to wait for it to finish thawing. read more

This place needs more love. Seriously. Great selection of breakfast foods with interesting creations, but the bagels are the real stars as they are made fresh with great variety. I had ordered the Malibu Gucci (a healthy option) and the Bogey Crusher (double bacon option), which both were delicious! The staff members are very nice, and working very hard to please customers. This place can get busy in the morning (especially weekends), but worth the wait. If you want to save some time you can call in orders ahead of time or make delivery or pick up orders online orders through DoorDash. I also saw that this is the Hoagie House with few selection of hoagies(subs) you can order. By the way, I love it that they call it hoagies and not subs here because as a Philly native we call our these sandwiches, hoagies. I haven't tried these yet, but the fact they call them hoagies is a good sign from me. Check 'em out. Thumbs up from me. read more

Best self-serve coffee set-up ever! Oat milk, almond milk, real half and half and fresh milk, honey, cinnamon, flavored syrups all for no extra charge, 4 types off coffee allows for a custom blend. Super friendly service, good value, bagel sandwiches are thick with fresh ingredients. Spacious, sunny seating, free books and board games. Easy parking. Love this place! read more

One of the only breakfast places that was open early enough for me to get food on the way to work. They have Taylor Ham (pork roll) which for me as a Jersey transplant is a touch of home. Their prices are fair and the guys behind the counter are very polite. The ambiance is... a bagel shop. Come in and give it a try. read more

My review is mainly for customer service. I ordered a delivery from this shop to go to a location in Ellicott City - I myself was NOT local at the time. Doordash messed it up entirely, sent the driver to the wrong place. The manager of the bagel shop (shout out to Jake) was super helpful, and not only accommodated by offering to re-make the order (if the driver didn't return it) but in the absence of DoorDash ability to fix the fact that the driver went to the wrong place - Jake personally delivered this order for me. Saved the day! Thanks Jake! When I come to Ellicott City next I'll be grabbing bagels from your store. read more

I got take out here on a Friday mid morning. As a new customer the flow for ordering was confusing and so other customers who came in after me were served before anyone asked me if I had been helped. Other than the initial confusion the clerk was very friendly. I ordered two egg salad bagel sandwiches and a half dozen bagels. Yum! The egg salad is delicious and comes with a pickle and bagel chips. I honestly thought the chips were a bit stale and wouldn't have missed them. Their bagels are the best bagels I've found in the area. I'll be back. read more

Stopped by here during my holiday travels and was very pleasantly surprised! I had a Reuben on a marbled bagel and a cup of kale soup with chickpeas. The Ruben was fantastic, with the pastrami not being too fatty and perfectly salted. The soup was great and seasoned very well. I also love how soup was served in a mug! The sandwich also came with bagel chips, which i put in the soup. Plus, the coffee really hit the spot and was a perfect pick me up for the road, I had the antithesisbrew. The owner was there and told me the coffee beans were from a local roaster and I was very impressed. read more

This is a great place to take the family if you're looking for a really good breakfast. I really like their bagels. They are usually made fresh and taste really good. If you don't like kids then you won't like this place because a lot of families come in and out of this place and the kids can be very loud and just running all over the place at times. There's a summer camp right next door as well. So if you're looking for something more quiet and low key this may not be the place for you. Otherwise food is good read more

Swung by this place on my trip back to MD, today. I was really craving some bagels and arrived here at closing time, worrying that I was too late. Met the owner, who recently just took over management of the restaurant, and within a few minutes, I found an amazing pizza bagel in front of me. I wish I took a picture of the food but honestly, I just ate it too fast. 11/10 will drop by here again when I'm in town next week. read more

I finally stopped in this place because word has been getting around that the ownership has changed and things have improved significantly. I am so glad that I did!

Bagel Bin - Plain bagel with butter. Yum! - Bagels Near Me - Ellicott City, Maryland

I got 5 different items. They were not bad but could definitely been better. The nova lox and cream cheese was below my expectations, it was just cream cheese and salmon. It didn't have any casper and I'm not sure if it was forgotten or this store just don't have them. I also got the ham sandwich and tuna sandwich on white bread but the bread weren't toasted as requested. They still tasted good, but I wish the bread were toasted and made them even better. The salsa from the salsa sauve tasted bitter for some reason? If I were to order this again, I'd ask to leave out the salsa but it is weird for salsa to taste bitter in the first place. The last item was a plain bagel with cream cheese and fortunately they weren't so stingy on the cream cheese. I usually have to order extra cream cheese but this place gives you a decent amount. read more
