Found this bagel place in Ravenna on the way to eat curry.. They baked their bagel fresh daily. There's some seasonal ones. So good selection of bagels and schmear. Parking: free parking by the Herbalist or street parking Seating: plenty inside read more

Looks like ownership changed. New recipe. These aren't NY bagels, they are dense and don't appear boiled. Bagels are not labeled. Not sure if they are all sourdough but the poppy seed bagel is sourdough and was inedible, I threw it out. The sesame seed bagel was ok. The cream cheese is no longer made in house, but they still name the plain cream cheese after the establishment giving the impression it's made in house. They only add the mix ins to the cream cheese in house, so the plain is straight out of the 3rd party package. read more

I ordered this with DoorDash, and they messed up the order, BUT I called Oasis directly, and they 110% helped me out with the delivery. THANK YOU! read more

Yummy bagels and cream cheese. Friendly service and good drip coffee. The sourdough bagel was so fluffy and the strawberry cream cheese was sweet but not too sweet. Took a bakers dozen home! read more

Excellent bagel. Exterior crunchy, inside just the right texture and chewiness. Will return. Thank goodness for a decent bagel!!!! I've been looking for years, since Noah's Bagels left. read more

The only serious NY bagel joint in town. Best to see which bagels just came out... hot and very good . I have had several sandwches here, all good -- Pickles - chips are sides - don't worry about prices when eating out anymore.. it is no longer cheap anywhere read more

With all the writeups on various newbie bagel biz, you'd think the greater Puget Sound region just discovered this versatile carb canvas. A total bagel OG indie since 1988...36 years!...in Seattle's Ravenna neighborhood. I used to live next door and acclimated to that pleasant scent. Well except way back when, seeing rolling bagels on fire. Another anecdote entirely, I digress. I've bought countless bagels for home and for work way back when, preYelp. Totally surprised that I haven't penned an actual post. Well today I stopped in during the last business hour (3pm) and was surprised to see such a surplus in the display case (9/26/24). I ordered a plain bagel ($2.75), toasted, then with an added schmear of cream cheese ($3). As vanilla as it gets. With tax & tip, this was $7.35. Wow. Seriously. I paid up and satiated the need for dunch/linner while on a budget and on the go. Having recently stopped by Toasted in the UDistrict and Eltana on Capitol Hill, I was feeling nostalgic and stopped in at Bagel Oasis. I just can't get over how much bagels, like everything else, has become so pricey. read more

This is the top bagel shop in the region at the moment. At the very least, top 3. It's the one store I keep returning to while waiting for a new place to open soon. But it's not consistent. I sat and watched five or six batches of bagels come out of the kitchen one morning, and every batch was cooked to a different degree of brown (even factoring in different flavors). And the edge-to-edge thickness was not consistent in some bagels. Oh, and they crowd the bagels so they up with flat sides like a bad donut. But the flavor is good. And I can fix them at home when reheating in a convection oven. Will definitely be returning. read more

Bagel Oasis - Bagels Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I've been coming in a bunch lately after not having visited for years... I'm always so happy! It's usually quite calm inside so the service is fast. I've had the pork sandwich with pikliz, the Beacon Hill (turkey and bacon), and last time the jalapeño cream cheese... All were really good! I'm not sure why they aren't crazy busy all the time, I guess there are a lot of new bagel places in fashion. I love those places too, but Bagel Oasis has stood the test of time and always treats me right. read more

Bagel Oasis - Beacon Hill on a salt bagel - Bagels Near Me - Seattle, Washington

The food here was okay, but definitely not worth the price. I paid about $15 + tip for a sandwich that was mostly just the bagel -- not much filling or substance. Everything is served in paper cups and plates, which gives it more of a fast-food vibe, yet the prices are closer to a sit-down restaurant. It also took around 15-20 minutes to get my order, which felt odd given the setup. The taste itself was fine, but overall the place feels outdated, not cozy, and doesn't match the cost or experience you'd expect for the price point. read more

0/5 for service. When I walked in at 2 30pm on a Thursday, 2 people were making bagels, 0 people greeted me. A woman in line said she'd been waiting over 5 minutes already. One of the bagel orders came out, and the person had to come back to the counter because his bagel was missing lox. After 10 minutes, the woman in front of me was finally able to order (the first time either of the people behind the counter acknowledged her) - she had to wait 10 minutes for 6 bagels and cream cheese to-go!!! I ordered a bagel with lox, and it was only after I got home that I realized that they forgot my lox, too. I returned and they kindly remade my bagel sandwich. However, they only added 1/2 a slice of lox to each side! The standard is at least 3 slices of lox, so you get a nice thick bite. What a waste of both $15 ($20 with tax and tip!) and time. read more

Update to prior review: Bagel Oasis is still the ONLY real New York bagel shop in Seattle. Hand made, boiled then baked to perfect crispness. And all the flavors New York expects and then some...pumpernickel, salt, bialys. Do not be fooled by ask the trendy newcomers. This is the real deal. My husband (New Yorker) and i have been going here for 15 years. Thank you bagel oasis for being the real deal! read more

Good bagels, yay pumpkin!! Staff were friendly & food was out quick. Warm lighting, cozy feel.

Bagel Oasis brought a lovely assortment of bagels and schmears to Vita at KEXP for their monthly coffee cupping. The bagels were absolutely delicious and such a great way to start the day with amazing coffee too! I can't wait to visit Bagel Oasis and try one of their sandwiches. They make bagels the classic way that most shops have departed from since it's more expensive. For me, I'm willing to pay a bit more for a specialty product that is made with care and dedication to the craft. So happy to be introduced and will be visiting the shop soon! read more

Charging $4.50 to add schmear to a $3.50 bagel is highway robbery. The bagels are not toasted, which I understand is a thing but you should AT LEAST ASK if people want them toasted. They're also not warm. I've come in before but this is the last time. Will just go to Hey Bagel, where you can get 4oz of schmear (enough for two bagels) for $4. read more

This place sucks didn't cut my bagel the workers weren't very smart and it's extremely overpriced.

This review is exclusively for the pumpernickel bagel! I have been separated from New York, and my beloved pumpernickel bagel with whitefish salad, for nearly nine months now. I have not sought one out here in Seattle because I was skeptical one would meet my standards. Turns out, people here are committed to making VERY discerning lists of the best bagels in town, especially for a place that doesn't have too many options in the first place. Bagel Oasis' bagels are a standout among permanent stores; the creme de la creme, of course, comes from elusive popups like Hey Bagel. The inside is a bit bleak for dining in, but the guy at the counter was very friendly! A single bagel came out to about $3. Because they don't carry whitefish salad, I took the bagel home to assemble. The taste test exceeded expectations: the crust was hard enough that tapping on it sounded like a horse's gallop, but not too tough (one can only assess bagel texture properly when untoasted); the inside was chewy without being dense. An extremely successful bagel quest! read more

Dirty look(owner /workers ) felt the racism ,,poor service.... Only for a fresh bagel .

This is the best bagel place I've ever been to and yes I've been to New York I'm including those bagel restaurants. I've been coming here my entire life and it has always been the best bagel sandwich I've had as well as best bagels and homemade cream cheese. It is a far drive for me to get here but it is always worth it. My whole family loves coming here!! read more

$13.99 for a fully loaded lox bagel? Yes please!! I had the salmon and lox sandwich on a pumpernickel bagel with a lovely cappuccino. Super sweet employees, and I like how they offer an express line for people just buying bagels by the dozen! Definitely worth checking out if you're in the neighborhood. read more

Bagel Oasis - Lox and Cream Cheese Sandwich - Bagels Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Bagel oasis is one of the better bagel spots in Seattle! It's no Mt. Bagel or Howdy Bagels but it'll hit the spot when you want a sausage, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel. I've also had their bagel with cream cheese which was better than I expected! The cream cheese was light and fluffy, and they weren't skimpy with the cream cheese (although still nothing close to the amount bagel spots in NY give you). read more

Bagels themselves are very good (chewy with blistery outside). However, it should be an actual crime to list avocado as a sandwich ingredient and then give you sad watery guacamole. I'm looking at you emerald sandwich. Service was slow and a not super friendly. Tables were dirty. Would probably go for a bagel with cream cheese as takeout if we returned in the future. read more

The bagels here are fine to good for a NY style bagel -- I prefer Mt. Bagel or Old Salt, but they'll do, especially for a bagel with egg and cheese. But the amount of cream cheese I got on my bagel was actually offensive given that it cost $4.25 -- that's just for the schmear! not the bagel! -- it was a painfully thin layer, probably not more than an ounce. The opposite of a real ny bagel with a massive schmear. On top of that, they forgot one of the bagels that we ordered, and we didn't realize it until we were already back at home. Boo. read more

Amazing bagels and cream cheese. They do both cream cheese and sandwiches on bagels, the workers are nice too. Their salt bagels? Absolute bomb, just be warned, it is VERY salty! Hard for me to say it, I like it more than hey bagel. read more

I had a hard time deciding how to rate our experience. The freshly made bagels are good, though I thought the everything bagel only had a light sprinkling of "everything" on the top. We tried two sandwiches. I had the Meatless in Seattle. Impossible to eat as a sandwich. A big mess. Thick slices of cucumber with tomato and onion with a smear, mashed avocado and havarti. The insides slid all over the place. Had to take it apart to eat it. A serious mess. My other had the 520 Quartet. He liked the textures and flavors but had pieces of fat/grissle that couldn't be chewed/eaten. We wanted to buy a couple dozen bialys and they only had 7. They nicely offered to bake more while we ate our sandwiches. They freshly made warm bialy was the best thing we ate. read more

This Place Sucks !!! They are extremely unorganized !! And it's definitely the last time I'll ever come here. I've watched them get 3 orders wrong in. Down a let the customers leave with the wrong orders.. it's sad. and we have read more

This is a very tough review to write, I've been a dedicated Bagel Oasis customer for over 30 years but I can honestly say this place has hit rock bottom and it's time to take my business elsewhere as they're literally not even trying any longer. First off, prices have gone through the roof. For years, our Sunday morning ritual has been to run to Bagel Oasis and pick up a dozen bagels with a couple of containers of cream cheese. With tax and tip this is now a $45+ proposition. For bagels and cream cheese. I mean, the bagels are good but it's still just bagels and cream cheese. Now, up until the Covid pandemic we would stop by at least once every 1-2 months for a full sit-down breakfast, as the omelettes have always been pretty solid and our family of four could eat for a very reasonable price. I realized we haven't dined in since the pandemic ended and for Father's Day this was my destination of choice. Poor decision. Let's start with the prices: $71 for bagels and eggs for four people. Seriously? And when I went to refill my coffee at the counter I was told this would be an additional $0.55. Excuse me? I just paid $71 for breakfast and you're going to charge me another $0.55 to refill an 8oz. coffee? For all of the years I've been coming here, I've never experienced an up-charge for a plain drip coffee refill, nor would I at any other restaurant. As they say, penny wise and dollar foolish. And mind you, we're not even talking about being served at the table... Pre-pandemic they would bring your breakfast to your table on a nice plate with real silverware. Now? Brown bag, plastic containers, plastic utensils, pick it up at the counter. Remember, we are dining in, not taking out. If I wanted to eat out of a plastic container I would have ordered takeout teriyaki. Finally, let's talk about the service and cleanliness...no service to speak of, and the restaurant was frankly disgusting. After we ordered, we went to four different open tables before we found one that was relatively clean. Note, I say *relatively* clean, as we still had to get some napkins and wipe down the table ourselves. The restaurant wasn't even busy...there were only two occupied tables, and the first three empty booths we visited were all dirty. Might the staff might be motivated to clean the restaurant, as it was mostly empty? Don't be silly...the four employees I saw were too busy standing in a circle behind the counter talking amongst themselves to be bothered. I know that times are tough for all businesses...employees are hard to find, prices for everything are high, etc. etc. etc. But if you're going to charge premium prices, at least think about how you're going to present your product and how you treat the customer. Like I said, I've been coming here for over 30 years, more than half my life, but when a business is failing itself and no longer even trying, it's time to move on to other options...of which there are plenty. read more

Let's start with the good: the bagels. I am an avid lover of bagels and I enjoyed these. I had an onion bagel with scallion cream cheese. The onion bagel was nice, soft but chewy and nicely onion-y. The cream cheese was full of scallions, almost, but not quite overwhelming in its scallion-ness. The not so good: the customer service. The staff was almost surly at times. I could definitely see how constantly instructing people where to go to order take out vs dine in could get old and frustrating, but if no one is paying attention to your nondescript signs, maybe you should either a) make new signs or b) revamp your process. Even though we did follow said signs, we were still met with a heavy sigh when ordering, we had to repeat our order multiple times and still our take away order wasn't right; we ordered 6 bagels and some schmear, nothing fancy. Overall, an underwhelming experience. read more

The original bagel shop in Seattle. We have been going there for years. The bagels are fresh and hot and the flavors are delicious

Ordered two bagel sandwiches. The cheddar and roast beef was just ok. A real disappointment was an onion bagel with cream cheese, tomato, lox, onion & capers. The lox was nearly non existent, as was the cream cheese. The bagel was good though. read more

Been there couple of days ago seeking morning breakfast. Well place was nearby so I wanted to try. Paid about $13 for a bagel-sandwich which was 1/5, interior is old and in a bad condition for the price policy they asking. Coffee not the worse. Gave 2 stars instead of 1 just because of server. She was nice and polite read more

Nearly $8 for a mediocre whole wheat bagel and lackluster sundried tomato/basil cream cheese. I was starving and desperate for a bite to eat. Hadn't been here in several years, but I remembered their bagels as being good. That was well over 6 years ago. Man, have things changed. I understand inflation, but what you pay for an underwhelming bagel and cream cheese here is ridiculous. And the seating in their booths is super uncomfortable. Not recommended, at all. read more

For a $7 bagel, this is one sad looking breakfast , they didn't even try. There is potential in this place being amazing but not like this. Not sure if the photo did it justice on just how little eggs they use. The egg is paper thin? Bagel is pumpernickel and it's good so that gives it a star read more

Closest to NY bagels that I found in the Seattle area. The service is not very friendly or efficient, but it was worth the trip for the bagels. The bagels were obviously boiled and have the chewy texture that I am looking for. If you prefer a texture more like bread, go elsewhere read more

Very stingy on the lox. And we ordered a bagel sandwich to go for our plane ride. How brainless it was of them not to even cut in in half! What really angered me was that they added an additional dollar to the generous tip I left them! WOW! How unethical is that? Also, they need to update their website; the priced don't match the actual prices! No. We won't be returning. read more
