I'd much rather spend $5-$10 on a bagel from a local mom-and-pop shop than go to a chain, and Bagel St. Café is exactly why. The ambiance is warm and cozy, making it a great spot to slow down and actually enjoy your breakfast. This place has been a favorite of mine for over 10 years. I first discovered it back in high school when I'd stop by after being in the area, and it's been in my regular rotation ever since. My go-to bagels are the cheddar jalapeño and the asiago, both are always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly baked. If you visit between 6-8 a.m., expect a bit of a wait (usually 5-15 minutes), which is pretty typical for the morning rush. They also offer the convenience of ordering online through DoorDash for in-store pickup if you're short on time. The staff is consistently nice and welcoming, which adds to the overall experience. There are plenty of tables if you want to eat there, and parking is easy to find nearby, making it an accessible and comfortable stop whether you're dining in or grabbing something to go. read more

Stopped by Bagel Street Cafe and ordered a baker's dozen of bagels. For that quantity, I was expecting them to be packed in a box, but instead everything was stuffed into a thin brown paper bag, which felt careless and not great for keeping the bagels protected or fresh. I also specifically asked for the bagels to be cut in half, and the staff said they would do it. But when I got home, none of them were cut. It's a small request, but when it's acknowledged and then ignored, it's frustrating. The bagels themselves were fine, but the lack of attention to basic packaging and order accuracy really took away from the experience. For the price and reputation, I expected better execution. read more

Very tasty bagels. I ordered my bagel to go so I didn't notice that they gave me a bagel egg and cheese instead of just a bagel and egg. Not the end of the world of course, but a surprise. I got the hazelnut coffee and while it felt very watery, it had great flavor. I also grabbed two bagels and some smear: LOVE the jalapeño smear. The cinnamon raisin bagel and strawberry bagel were both really good. read more

This place's food is not bad, service is ok. We put through a big order on their website which was filled fine, we just waited a long time without any sign or signal that it was filled and just sitting on their shelf behind the counter. They were taking a lot of orders so we didn't want to interject, but you would think if a couple people have been standing there for 15 minutes and have not been serviced, you should ask what they need. Parking in the area is fine but congested - it's in the big safeway plaza sharing the lot with many other businesses. Overall the food is good - the bagel sandwiches were great, including the lox sandwich and a banana+nutella sandwich with chocolate covered nuts (be still my heart!). read more

I had bagel street cafe at work and it really delivered. First, the variety of bagels available was incredible: classics like everything, poppy, sesame while also throwing in one of my favorites: a salt bagel! It is very hard to find outstanding bagels in the bay, but Bagel St Cafe was very very good and memorable. They also have a variety of cream cheeses, we got: Blueberry, Lox Schmear, sun dried tomato and garlic, and garden veggie. I tried all of them and again, the flavors are great and they were not too sweet/grainy at all. I was happy with the organization of the to go order. I would highly recommend a visit. If this is to go, I bet a fresh bagel there would hit so hard!! read more

always consistent with great workers! I always get the salmon lox (the classic ofc) & it is sooo good. Like it will hit. They do put a lot of cream cheese but honestly i dont mind even tho im lactose intolerant lol. The bagel does take a bit but it's freshhhh so who cares. I wouldn't come here if you're not trying to wait like 10-15 mins for your order because when there is a long line, it'll be a wait! Just a heads up read more

One of the few bagel options in the Millbrae area offering lox I first found bagel Street while perusing DoorDash. Wile, I am certainly not a connoisseur of bagels, their bagels are some of the best texture wise I have had. On this sleepy Thursday morning I finally found my way to the brick and mortar shop located conveniently in downtown Millbrae. I was pleasantly surprised by how spacious their store was. At their generous price point you really can't get a better lox bagel. read more

I've walked by this Bagel shop probably 30 times and never stopped in since bagels hardly ever seem worth the calories, BUT when the bagel craving strikes it was the first shop that popped into my mind! First off, supporting local is always on my mind AND because this place is located in the best location ever. If you are ever running any errands - safeway, trader Joe's, walgreens, usps, Paris baguette, petfood express, starbucks..LITERALLY everything is in this plaza! It is sooo convenient to stop here with the kid in tow, grab a coffee/snack, and get your errands taken care of! This bagel shop is pretty nice - lots to see around the counter when making your selection. Service is fast, even during the morning rush. I ordered: 1. Blueberry Bagel with strawberry cream cheese - the shockingly red/pink strawberry cream cheese definitely make me hesitate because it looks sooo artificial (would definitely recommend they chill on the red food coloring if that's an option), but thankfully it didn't taste like it looks! 2. Cheddar Jalapeño Bagel with scallion cream cheese - this is so basic, yet SO good every time. I don't know why I ever stray from this order the. Both were toasted and perfect with a hot coffee for a winter morning breakfast! Definitely too much cream cheese in both, but I have no qualms giving the extra a good ole scrape-off! read more

The bagels are good, fluffy inside, chewy on the outside but the service could use improvement. The staff came across with a poor attitude and didn't seem very attentive. I asked for a bakers dozen and told them which ones I wanted. In the middle of getting them, they lost count and had to dump all the bagels out to determine how many more to give. IDK about you, but counting to twelve is not that difficult... Also, not a huge deal, but price on the wall said $20 for a bakers dozen. I was charged $21.20. A bit more care and friendliness would make a big difference, especially when it's first thing in the morning. read more

Kiddo and her friends got a variety of bagels. Around downtown Millbrae, I would say this is pretty high schoolers friendly, besides boba shops of course. The Millbrae Special comes out to $13 with tax. You can choose your bagel and cream cheese. They could've been more generous with the lox but the whole thing was pretty tasty. read more

Ordered a lox bagel. The lox was one slice... this is more like a bagel with lots of cream cheese, super strong onions, and a piece of tomato. You can't even taste the lox. What's the point of ordering? The bagel itself is good but nothing else is worth it. read more

I tend to go to Bagel Street at least once a month. Service is always friendly and quick, bagels are delicious. I've never had a bagel I didn't like. Today I had the sliced lox sandwich on a jalapeño bagel. If I'm hosting a brunch, I typically get a bakers dozen and their in house cream cheese. Always a hit. Plenty of seating available. They offer free wifi and also have a reward point system - just enter your phone number at the register :) read more

Just want to give a shout out to Bagel Street Cafe for such a quick response and service for the unintentional bagel lox sandwich without the lox. I returned the next morning after my Pilates class and explained to the staff and no question asked and provided two lox sandwiches (one credit and one on the house). With much gratitude - leaving a satisfied and grateful customer! Oh - I did get both toasted one on everything bagel and the other on pumpernickel! The staff apologized which was also very nice - did let them know that I understand it was not intentional sometimes service and action speak louder than the food....have a feeling that our sandwiches will n taste extra delicious!!! read more

Located at the end of the plaza, next to Starbucks. Bagel Street Cafe is spacious inside with not only serving bagels but pastries as too. They had a decent selection even before closing time. I waited at the counter for a good 1-2 minutes before the worker acknowledged me. He must've been new cause he said someone else would be with me shortly. As far as bagels, I got a mixed variety and it there was a good assortment. Parking in plaza read more

I would go here religiously back in high school, they do not play with the amount of spread they put on their bagels. Throughout the years, the service definitely got a lot better and friendlier. Came in recently, and they were all so sweet, and I feel like they knew everyone who came in. I would even do some last minute studying here sometimes and I would still do work here. The vibe there is just perfect for either a grab and go or a sit and chat. My order: I've tried almost everything on their menu honestly, and they never missed. Do not skip on their refrigerators, they got spreads and more in there! Plain bagel with cream cheese - A true classic, sometimes you just gotta go plain. This goes for all their bagel orders, they will always be warm and toasty with a huge amount of whatever filling you ordered. read more

My personal favorite too is a good bagel dog which they always deliver on! The shop is roomy to sit and enjoy and large to not feel crowded. Today's combo was Asiago, cream cheese, bacon and cucumbers! Chef's or should I say Creator's kiss! read more

Bagels are good but not spectacular. The bagel sandwiches are tasty and priced fairly. The restaurant itself is clean and pleasant. Their website is atrocious for online ordering and they don't pick up the phone even when the staff are leaning on counters doing nothing. And you can tell most of them don't care at all, so it stings more when you tip them. And if you order thru their website, there are fewer options than speaking to a person, and they still screw up the order somehow. I love that they open their doors very early in the morning, but it's such a hassle to get food there. I wish they'd make their online orders work, or even better pick up the phone for their customers! read more

Bagel Street Cafe has been part of Millbrae for as long as I can remember always craving their bagel dogs when I was in middle school through high school. They were a good price, but also incredibly filling. I decided on a whim to come back for a visit and to be honest it was okay, but not as amazing as I once remembered. The interior is more updated and the customer service is solid too. I got my childhood favorite, Plain Bagel Dog ($4.99) and the Millbrae Special ($12). You can get cheddar or cheddar/jalapeno for your bagel dog, but I think it's fine as is being plain. The sausage was great, but the bagel itself had such a tough/rubbery texture. I felt like my jaw was having the workout of my life. The flavor was there, but the texture dissapointed me. I felt like to heat it up it was just microwaved for way too long which caused the bagel exterior to harden. The Millbrae Special comes with avocado, egg, lox, tomatoes, onions, and capers, plus plain cream cheese. They also let you choose what bagel you want and I opted for the plain bagel. The ingredients were pretty fresh and I really liked how the egg was cooked. They were also generous with the cream cheese. At first I thought $12 was too much for a bagel sandwich, but honestly it can leave you pretty full. The bagel which is supposed to be the most important part unfortunately also just tasted like a bagel you can just get from your local grocery store and honestly had a tough texture too. I think Bagel Street is just okay. It does somethings good, but I left a little underwhelmed with their bagels although every other ingredient was pretty good overall. read more

This is a good Bagel Street location. The one in Redwood Shores is better. We came around 1pm and the selection of bagels was depleted. We got our usual bagel dog and a bagel with cream cheese and tomato. It didn't taste as good as the ones at their other locations. Service was fast. read more

Food was great, service is good, we were in and out in no time. We got lox sandwiches and me and my wife both enjoyed ourselves meals.

Gotta support your local bagel shop when they're cooking, or boiling rather, fresh bagels. Walked in because I could smell the fresh aroma outside and decided to get my coworkers a dozen assorted bagels. They were fresh, the service was great, and there was plenty of parking in the back. They have a variety of smears and make a really good lox sandwich. A+ I'll be back for more. read more

A solid spot for bagel sandwiches, but making it 3.5 stars mainly because the bagels themselves are your average run-of-the-mill bagels. My favorite things to order here are the Millbrae special, and the sliced lox bagel sandwich. They're a decent size and they don't skimp on the cream cheese. Even when ordering online, the bagel sandwiches are very customizable which is great. Also, if you want to feel less guilty about inhaling your bagel sandwich Sidewalk Juice recently opened up next door so you can pop by for a green juice as well. read more

Really wanted to like to place, but unfortunately it was just average and disappointing. I just got an jalapeño cheddar with garlic herb cream cheese.
