Bag secured ! This is my favorite gem in Brandon, all bagels are made fresh theyre open super early if you're an early bird that can be a plus but they also close super early & when it's sold out that's it for the day ! Which can be sad if you're craving them ! So get there early. I recommend their everything bagel BEC you won't regret it. read more

Brandon Bagels - Bag secured - Bagels Near Me - Brandon, Florida

Exceptional bagels!! Great variety of bagels and friendly service. Yummy breakfast sandwiches, too.

Good bagel shop if you live in the area. If you asked me in 2020, I would've given this a 5 star reviews. Unfortunately, I've experienced a decline in the quality and service of these bagels over the years. During my last visit, the shop was not packed but had a constant influx of people entering. I noticed many people ordering half dozen or dozen bagels for home rather than bagel sandwiches which is a bit different than other bagel shops in Tampa, but this is probably because there is no seating available at Brandon Bagels. I ordered multiple BECs, and from the time I entered the shop to the time I left, it took about 10-15 minutes. Unfortunately, I didn't unwrap my sandwich until I left the parking lot when I noticed that the cheese wasn't even fully melted, and the egg was a very small portion. The bagels here used to be more fluffy, but are now on the thinner side. Their signature preparation is to is toast, and put salt, pepper, and butter on the bagel sandwiches. I ordered multiple bagel sandwiches which did not come labeled. Suggestion is to label sandwiches in the future as most bagel shops do. I live in downtown Tampa and used to wake up early to drive to Brandon and get a bagel or two early in the morning before work, but now only stop by when I'm in the area since the quality has declined a bit and the ambience is borderline uncomfortable. Pros: - Cheap - Good variety Cons: - No seating - Small - Location (in a strip mall near nothing) - Staffing/timing read more

I guess it was sold again, except that this time the ones who bought it are going to run it in to ground. The Cheddar Cheese Bagel was pail and didn't taste like it had any flavor. The everything bagel had nothing on it compared to the previous people. R.I.P. Brandon Bagel read more

If you're looking for authentic New York style bagels in the Brandon area, look no further! This is a great hole in the wall shop for amazing bagels and bagel sandwiches. I have been to this location several times, and I'm always greeted with a smile, and walk away with, the best bagels in the Brandon area in my opinion. The prices are great, and it feels good to support a local business versus one of the big stores. read more

I had the Apple turnover (great), cinnamon roll (decent), and a ham and cheese bagel (good). I would definitely recommend this restaurant for bagels and baked goods. read more

My very favorite breakfast is an Everything Bagel with lox, cream cheese, tomato, onions and capers. This was one of the best I've had. The bagels make it near perfection, crisp on the out and soft in the middle. The cream cheese softens perfectly. Customer service is excellent and extremely fast-paced. A little pricey, but so worth it. read more

The service in this joint is so wack they are literally yellin at each other because one girl is tryna do all the work and the line is backed up and people are waiting for orders barely any bagels so maybe 10am isn't a good time for them. Might try again I'm not sure read more

Brandon Bagels - Brandon bagels - Bagels Near Me - Brandon, Florida

The best bagels in Florida. They also have on occasion Bialys they have quite a few different flavors of bagels , and lots of flavored cream cheese. Love it read more

These folks know what they are doing. Was immediately greeted as soon as I walked in. The glass case holding the bagels was so high, I couldn't see the person that was talking to me at first. I just continued to shout my order to the voice behind the counter until I found the register to pay. Got here at approximately 9 am and they were already out of sesame. So, I ordered a plain and salt toasted with plain cream cheese. Both were tasty, with plenty of cream cheese. They did not skimp on the cream cheese at all. They also had various sandwiches, but I like my bagels boring. A good bagel can stand alone without eggs and bacon, and these bagels hit the mark! I could tell they had a lot of regulars come in and the workers were equally nice to everyone that walked in. I definitely recommend this place and would certainly come again one morning. read more

I was a daily customer in this Bagel shop even before long time owner Jim took over. Jim offers the world a great original delicious product. His bagels are as authentic as you can get in Florida. I no longer commute so I don't see Jim as much as I used to but I still won't eat a bagel unless it came from him. Julius Engel IV read more

Put best bagels in town . Great service good quality is amazing. I got the cheese bagel with chive cream cheese. And a cinnamon roll. It's so good. My kids and wife love this place. read more

Get the Everything Bagel Twist, toasted with plain cream cheese. I promise, I will not steer you wrong. They literally have the BEST bagel in the ENTIRE Tampa Bay area. If you're a native New Yorker like my husband, you tend to have a fond appreciation for a good bagel and these do not disappoint. There's no such thing as a bad bagel when it comes to Brandon Bagels. My recommendation to you is to try and get there early. If you try strolling in past 11 or 12, you might walk in to slim pickings. They open early and again, the BEST bagels around, so they tend to sell quickly. Prices are extremely reasonable, too. The coffee, the pastries, the bagels. Everything is very fair priced. I suggest trying some of their seasonal cream cheeses. My absolute favorite is their Smores Cream Cheese. Yeah, that's right: SMORES CREAM CHEESE. That delightful concoction is packed full of mini chocolate chips, graham cracker crumbs and mini marshmallows! Seriously... Where could you wrong here? If you're ever in Brandon, stop on in. They're right off of SR 60, between Kings & Lakewood. Located in a small shopping plaza, across the street from Burlington Coat Factory, right next to Long John Silver's. The ladies up front are an absolute gem and the owners are such sweethearts! My family & I love Brandon Bagels. read more

My go to for bagels around Riverview, Brandon area. Freshly made bagels at 5 AM! I love their everything bagel with LoX!

That bagel was yum-a-lumma. Nice combination of sesame bagel, little butter, bacon and egg, topped with Swiss, yum! But $6 bucks? Woweee, talk about raising prices. read more

My order was incorrect and my everything bagel with cream cheese was just a gooey mess. It has potential, but not that day. read more

Not what it used to be. Sadly, this place isn't even worth one star. We've been patronizing this business for years and it's sad what it's become. My wife and our toddler went in this morning and two staff members were incredibly rude. So much so that my three-year old was scared and they ended up leaving without even making a purchase. Hire new staff, ASAP. read more

I stopped by Wednesday to put in a large order for early today, when I showed up they had everything ready and had even kept the cream cheese in the fridge until I got there! Great customer service and the bagels/flavored cream cheese cant be beat!! 72 bagels, 12 cream cheeses, and every thing was exactly as ordered (plus napkins and knives). Thank you so much!! Cant wait to use you guys again for our next event :) read more

I will tell you what: this place is a gem for those who know. Make sure to go early! They open at 5 and most bagels are picked clean by 8, and for good reason. They're delicious! Very true to their word "authentic NY bagels". Looks like a scene out of Seinfeld. But, back to the bagels. Boyfriend had a buttered blueberry which he thought delicious. That didn't keep him from trying to devour my multigrain sausage egg and cheese which was fantastic! Looking forward to trying out more of their stuff, like the French toast bagel! read more

Time to update my original review. I still think this place is great. They by far have the best bagels in the area, and they make their own cream cheese which is superb (chive and onion is my favorite). Their everything bagels are to die for, and if you don't get there early they will definitely be all sold out of them. Look in the local paper flyers for ads, as they frequently have a coupon for 2 or 4 free bagels with a dozen purchase. read more

I hate to do this, but I have waited to see. I love the staff and they have made the experience great for a long time. I have been a customer for 3 years my partner for over 10. 41 years in the restaurant business has taught me this. To the new owners "if it ain't broke don't fix it" don't change recipes or raise prices you bought gem and are turning it into a rhinestone. As evidenced by the fact that the last two times I've been able to walk in order and walk out without a line or having to call. Good luck Signed lost customer read more

What a hidden gem! Delicious, freshly baked New York style bagels. Can't believe I didn't find this place sooner. I'll never be able to eat another bagel again if it's not from Brandon Bagels. read more

My 1st visit was this morning, I typically hit the other Bagel joint on the corner as it's easier for me on my way to work ! The service there has not been great so this morning I wanted to give Brandon Bagel a try and wow ! Customer service was awesome, the food excellent best BLT Bagel I've ever received, Definitely got my service here on out , read more

I've been living in this area for 10 years now. I've passed by this place a jillion times. Each time thinking to myself that I have to try their bagels. Today was the first time, and it won't be my last. Why did I wait so long? This place is awesome! I'd much rather support this family owned bagel shop rather than any of the chain bagel shops I've visited recently. Besides that, their bagels are very good. I didn't feel like the bagel has the outer crispiness of a NY style bagel, but who the heck cares. We're not in NYC. I like both styles of bagels so it doesn't phase me one bit. What I do know is that these are "kettled and baked fresh daily from scratch." That's what the sign says and I believe them. I ordered a breakfast sandwich on an Everything Bagel with bacon, egg, and cheese. They even asked me how I wanted it. Do you want the bagel toasted & buttered? Do you want salt & pepper on your egg? Who even asks these questions anymore? I love this place. I was pleasantly surprised by all of this. They also fried up the egg right there in front of me. Yes, made to order and not sitting around waiting for someone to order it. What a wonderful & tasty breakfast! I also bought a half dozen bagels (3 plain and 3 Everything) and a tub of Olive & Garlic Cream Cheese (thanks to the previous reviewer). OMG, the cream cheese was so yummy! My husband even loved it, and he's not one who tends to comment much about food (even when asked). He specifically asked me to seal the remaining bagels up in a plastic baggie so that they don't harden up (like prized possessions). That said a lot to me. Okay, I may be over exaggerating a bit but the point is that we both liked them very much. I'll definitely go back for more the next time I have an appointment near that area. I think the only negative is that they don't really have a dining area. It's very small. I think maybe a few chairs. The baking area takes up the majority of the space. It's also in a very old and ugly looking strip mall on State Road 60. Other than that, service is actually pretty efficient and quick. There's a lot of parking, and they appear to have a steady flow of local clientele. I highly recommend it for bagels. I've been to the other bagel shops. IMHO, this is truly the best bagel shop in Brandon. I can't believe I waited this long to try it. read more

Brandon Bagels - Delicious! Lox, Cream Cheese, and Tomato on a Wheat Bagel - Bagels Near Me - Brandon, Florida

Went there for the first time today. Did a soft launch so to say lol - only got a half dozen of the regular "frozen" bagels we would buy in store and I'm sold. I don't think I'll ever buy Lenders again because of Brandon Bagels. Fiancé got blueberry and cinnamon raisin. I got onion and everything. So good along with their house made veggie cream cheese and honey cinnamon cream cheese. Can't wait to come back next Monday for their 13.00 dozen and 2 more cream cheeses! Service was good - the lady up front was super patient despite my indecisiveness. read more

a bagel cost $1.75 but if you want cream cheese on it it'll cost you over $5. do not come here. bait and switch. stupidest pricing ever. we thought we were getting a great local deal and helping a local shop. nope they ripped us off with a 3x markup on our item just to put creamcheese on it. unless you want to pay over $5 for a bagel with cream cheese do not go. read more

We are visiting Tampa and drove by due to the Yelp reviews. The family loved our bagels. We got a sausage, egg, and cheese, Taylor Ham egg and cheese, Blueberry with Strawberry cream cheese, Everything bagel with jalapeño cream cheese, and an apple turnover. Turnover was fresh, sweet, and delicious. Both meat and egg bagels were toasted with butter and the ingredients. So good. The blueberry bagel stuffed with strawberry cream cheese reminded me of Murray's bagels in NYC, yes, that good. Prices more than fair. Was perfect! read more

Recently found this place. Food is great. Service was amazing. Very friendly. Will def be my new go to.

Fresh every day! Was visiting town for a week and stopped in no less than 3 times. Their bacon is superb. read more

It's a rip off, 26$ for 7 bagels and cream cheese. I can get bagel in New York City for cheaper and they are better

this bagel place used to be my family's absolute favorite place but it's been going downhill for a while now. the bagels are flat for some reason and today i found what i thought was 30+ hairs on my bagel, i go back into the shop and the man tells me oh no its broom fibers, like that makes it any better. so unfortunate to lose a place that used to be so good. the women that work there are absolute angels though, nothing against them. the hygiene and bagels have gone down immensely though. read more

NYC quality, good people, best bialys anywhere ever. Not those donuts masquerading as bagels at Einstein's. These are made old school with care and flavor. Call ahead with your order if you want to save time. Egg sammies are tip top. read more

Super delicious place! Open early mornings and cater bagels the way you want it! Fast and welcoming paced staff

Tampa Bay's best New York style bagel shop ever! It is just ridiculous with everything they offer, their creativity on the options available and fresh! No wonder they always sell out! Between the homemade cream cheese and the process they put the bagels through, you have never tasted anything better! It's hot and toasty but still soft and chewy on the inside. The staff was so sweet and helpful and fast to make sure everyone is served quickly. This time I got a bagel sandwich, they are beyond and all of their bagels freeze well so it's definitely worth it to get a bakers dozen for sandwiches at home, breakfasts on the go etc. Don't leave without their cream cheese and I will be calling ahead for some of my clients so I can deliver it because it is a guaranteed crowd pleaser! read more

Excellent! As many others have reported the bagels are fresh, hot and delicious. It's was my first time in and I ordered a bacon, egg and cheese on everything bagel. This may be weird but I appreciate a thin egg. So many times there's too much egg on the sandwich and that's all I can taste, but theirs was perfect. Most importantly, it was seasoned. I ordered the everything bagel because usually the sandwich lacks flavor but not here. Do yourself a favor and support local. read more

Great bagel! Their everything bagel had so much everything seasoning, and on BOTH the top and the bottom slice. It had a crunchy outside and a soft warm inside. Their house made cream cheese was the perfect addition. Also had a bacon egg and cheese on a plain bagel, there wasn't enough bacon for me, but everything else was good! read more
