Custom Bagel
Yasmeen E.

I ordered a custom bagel (plain, chive, tomato, and cucumber). Honestly it just wasn't anything special. The cream cheese wasn't that flavorful. I wish they offered turkey slices to be able make it more balanced nutritionally but they only offer fish I believe. I think it was quite expensive for what I got but my husband liked his lox bagel. Service: it came out pretty quickly Ambiance: small area with a a couple of benches available inside and one bench outside while you wait for your food.

Daily special: tuna salad!

I've been wanting to try Boichik Bagels!! I don't visit this area often, so I was excited when my friend sent me info on Phin Bar's pop-up at Boichik :) There is no space indoors for seating, but there's plenty of outdoor seating and plaza parking. My friend ordered the Classic (which is the...classic...lox bagel ha! $16) and I ordered the daily special which was tuna ($15). SO excellent and satisfying I tell you. We ate it at 9:00am and I wasn't hungry until 3:00pm lol. My bagel had Alfredo cream cheese which is just crazy??? It's messy to bite into as expected but it did not deter us from enjoying :) Upon ordering, be ready with the type of bagel you want and toasted or untoasted. Service was speedy and they call your name when it's ready for you to pick up at the counter. I can't wait to come back for a build-your-own!

Anyone who knows me, knows I rave about Boichick. I've been to the Berkeley location and this one. I prefer this one because they have seating and the service at this location has always been friendlier. They even give my dog treats! But yeah I'd eat here everyday if I could. Can't say enough good things!! They are legit the best bagels in the SF area ( believe me I'm from NYC and I've tried 40+ bagel places)

Been here so many times and decided it was time for a review. The bagels are really tasty, with lots of flavor. They also offer a good variety of both bagels and cream cheese. I do wish that bagels were a little softer. The workers are always kind and service is pretty quick. The inside is small, but lots of tables outside. Pet friendly and plenty of vegetarian options If you're lucky you'll get to come here on a day when Ujicha is popped up!

Blood orange cold brew iced tea of the day
Kristine F.

OMG I'm in LOVE with the egg salad + avocado + tomato + cucumber! Add a flavored cold brew iced tea and you've got my heart. I'm still searching for my favorite bagel from here tho. I've had pumperthingle, everything, salt & pepper, and garlic. All the ones with flaky sea salt were too salty for me. Maybe I'll get original pumpernickel next? As a Californian, make sure to get your bagel toasted! I learned that the hard way. These NY style bagels are very dense. My first visit was almost two years ago, early January 2024? I'm glad I gave Boichik another chance. I called to see what the iced tea flavor of the day was. The employee on the phone was so nice and courteous! She informed me it was Wild Strawberry. I just had Guava from Los Gatos a week prior and it was good (I also love guava flavor). Strawberry was so refreshing and lightly sweetened. Very pretty color gradient too. I was able to snag a round Challah bread to take home on the last day they sold it. Their version is so soft and sweet. Reminds me of Filipino monay bread. I added some organic Clover butter. This location has a high ceiling, light and airy with natural sunlight from the floor to ceiling windows. Very inviting and staff is great! I gotta try the whitefish salad soon with heirloom tomato & cucumber (The Mensch), maybe on a garlic bagel.

Chef's kiss for this bagel and cream cheese. Got the everything bagel with the seasonal spring cream cheese and it did not disappoint. The bagel itself was so fresh and the perfect texture, the cream cheese was so flavorful and they DO NOT skimp. Also got an iced matcha which was delicious!! Lots of outdoor seating and they even have Bocce you can borrow.

My favorite bagel spot exits in Oakland. But, I'm not always ready to drive to the East Bay just to make sure I get my favorite carb fix. On those days, I still need a yummy bagel that leaves me satisfied, and this is a job for Boichik! When I'm feeling adventurous, I'll try the sandwich of the day, or the seasonal smear. And when I want my regular, it's the Pumperthingle Classic toasted. And this location is really nice! It's got bocce available, lots of outdoor seating, friendly workers with gorgeous freckles that always have a kind word to share. It's also queer inclusive. We love this!

We just noticed that there was a Boichik Bagel in Santa Clara! We ordered the "build your own bagel", which allowed you to choose the bagel, spread, protein, and veggies. We got a Poppy bagel with Lox and a sesame bagel with egg salad. They gave us a very generous portion of cream cheese! You can't go wrong with Lox in a bagel. The egg salad was better than my expectation. It was creamy and came well with the cream cheese. The store was located in a plaza near an industrial area in Santa Clara. There were a lot of parking spaces and some outdoor seating. There was a long line when we arrived on Sunday around lunch time. Will definitely come back for more bagels :)

Daily Special (subject to change)
Allison P.

A solid NYC-style bagel! They have a variety of bagels, schmears, and the cutest collection of merch! I went with their daily special (which is subject to change!) on a Garlic Bagel. On the day of my visit, the daily special consisted of picked red onions, tomatoes, capers, and chive cream cheese. Super refreshing yet filling! The bagel was on the doughier side, but paired perfectly with the creamy schmear. I will say that they go pretty heavy on the cream cheese, but I'm not complaining!

Everything Bagel with Lox Spread
Jacqueline Z.

Came here on a Sunday morning and decided to get the Everything Bagel with Lox Cream Cheese. The bagel was more on the doughy side and quite filling. The lox cream cheese was delicious and there was a good amount of it on the bagel. Definitely felt full after eating it. There was a small bit of egg on the side of my bagel, so there may be a bit of cross contamination.

Eggything bagel with lox cream cheese, cucumber, pickled onions, sprouts
Michelle T.

First time ordering a bagel sandwich at Boichik Bagels. I decided to go with the daily special, which was Lox cream cheese, sprouts, cucumbers, and red onions on an Eggything bagel. This came out to $8.75 total. While there was a bit too much cream cheese for my liking, I enjoyed the classic lox flavor with vegetables. It was my first time trying an egg-based bagel - it wasn't overly "eggy", and the only difference compared to a regular bagel is that the eggs made it a bit denser. This is definitely filling so I would recommend sharing any of these bagel sandwiches that are more substantial with multiple toppings.

Bhrite S.

I've never had a pizza bagel and it did not disappoint! I liked how the cheese wasn't overpowering and that there wasn't much pepperoni because it tends to get oily. The Nova Lox was superb, they are so generous with the amount of salmon!

Outside
Susan F.

There is no consistency with this location. I've visited this place two additional times now. The first time my bagel sandwich was burnt. I mean complete black, someone burnt the bagel and still decided to spread cream cheese on it as if the customer wouldn't notice. My second visit, I ordered a few bagels for friends. We wanted to taste their various flavors. I ask that the bagels be cut twice so we can all share. The customer service rep asked the manager and they said, no. The only cut the bagels once. I thought my request was very simple. We were headed someone where we didn't have a sharp knife. A simple gesture of cutting the bagels for us would have been nice. But I think it was too much of a heavy lift for a place that only sells bagels. All in all, just find another location to visit. I will just go back to House of Bagels at this point. It's not worth it any longer.

He's always rude to me as a customer, and the employees look stressed when he's present / aren't friendly like usual. One time I forgot the restroom code and threw out my receipt already (same code is always printed on the bottom). I asked one of the baristas for the code, and the owner swooped over and scolded me for losing my receipt. He then told the barista that she can't give me the code unless she checks the transaction history on their computer to verify that I was a customer. Never mind that my boyfriend and I were dining in and clearly had food and coffee at the table that I just walked away from, or that the barista just gave us our order minutes prior- such a weird way to treat your regular customers. It's embarrassing that I kept going back after that. I like how their coffee tastes though, and especially that I order for here and get it in a "big mug." It's literally the only reason I pick this place over other coffee shops. Today I received my overpriced coffee (~$9 each!) in cheap paper cups and mentioned that I ordered for here. The owner immediately lied and said the mugs were only for regular sized coffees, not large size. I was literally here yesterday drinking a large coffee from a mug. He could have just said the mugs were dirty, or the dishwasher was broken. He said that after I pointed out the lie, ha. I would have still given 2/5 stars because the food and coffee are REALLY good despite how unpleasant the owner is, but they also recently changed their menu photos to AI slop. 0/5 if I could.

I went on a Thursday between 2-4 p.m. and really enjoyed the space…read more Ambiance: The space is beautiful and bright, with large windows and high ceilings. It was very quiet during my visit, and conversations were kept to a minimum, which made it easy to concentrate. Even though it's located right across from a Caltrain station, I couldn't hear the trains at all. Parking & Accessibility: Parking was a breeze for me. I parked in the garage in one of the guest-reserved spots, and there's also street parking available. Since it's directly across from a Caltrain station, it's also easily accessible by public transportation. Seating: The café is connected to a leasing office, so be mindful of where you sit. The leasing agents do monitor the area and make sure café customers stay within the designated Coffeebar seating area. Drinks & Service: I ordered a loose-leaf tea and asked for it iced. The staff was warm and friendly, and as they handed me my drink, they said, "I hope you enjoy the tea." I really appreciate little details like that--it made the service feel more thoughtful and welcoming. Overall, I would definitely come back, especially when I need a quiet space to focus and get some deep work done.

Only one tall seat; wish there were more tall seats which is healthier :(…read more What can I say I love CoffeeBar despite all the cons.

I've enjoyed a few of their specialty seasonal drinks but those have never become core menu items. I am talking some really great items like mango matcha's, strawberry matcha's, lavendar latte's etc that I have thoroughly enjoyed but their core menu is not something I ever want to order from. They have really great stuffed croissants but those are also seasonal! My office catered pastries from here once and I still think about the spinach and cheese croissant we had alll the time! I have never seen it in their case though. And while they are really great, ~$8 for a pastry is highway robbery. Parking here is very difficult and I think most people who come here live nearby enough to walk. You gotta hope to get lucky with some street parking as they have no designated parking areas. I've had several odd cashier interactions where I am met with blank stares and no dialogue as I order. Today took the cake, however. When I ordered, the cashier looked at me confused. I picked up their menu and pointed to the item one I wanted. The cashier had to come find me again after placing my order to confirm it again. They have a seasonal chai listed and 'can be made into a pumpkin chai by request.' There was confusion around it coming with a shot of espresso and because my stomach has been completely wrecked since I had it, I think the they must have put two shots into my drink. In the past 5 hours, I've used the restrooms 4 times and eventually projectile vomited. I don't drink coffee often and had this in ONE sitting. I realize this is a unique experience as I do not drink espresso often but wanted to share so you all understand how strong their coffee is and seeing as how its across SCU, it DOES make sense why so many people come here. Upset is the least of what I feel right now and can confidently share I will not be back. Shits fucked up. No pun intended

There's street parking (if you're willing to walk a few minutes). They also have parking behind the cafe though it's limited. I was pleasantly surprised. My sister and I went yesterday afternoon and there was no line. I asked for the staff member's recommendation who said that I try their banana matcha (what I ended up ordering). My sister ordered the guava matcha. Both drinks were soooo good! From what I read from reviews, it's really a hit or miss depending on the day. The banana matcha was absolutely delicious! You can still taste the matcha while having a hint of real banana. Definitely not some artificial banana flavoring. My sister isn't the biggest fan of guava and she enjoyed her matcha too! 10/10.

Ain't y'all got work or something (I was coming home from the dentist). Luckily I found a spot after circling the lot one time, got my drinks, and was in and out within 15 minutes.

I know these aren't identical drinks, but I've been craving something good with melon flavor, and this hit the spot. For the 2nd drink, I got one of our usual go-to's, the guava matcha. Pretty good overall. I've knocked on their prices before. Still steep and more than I'd like to pay for my matcha, but it IS good. Still, costs about $1.5-2+ more than other places in my experience.
