-5 stars for great service -5 stars for cleanliness and niceness inside -5 stars for menu variety -5 stars for bagel variety -4 stars for ease of finding free, available street parking -5 stars for sandwich taste -2 stars for bagel taste (because I'm a bagel purest and strongly believe it's not a proper bagel if it's not boiled first then baked. These bagels are just baked bread in the shape of a bagel but lack the chew & shiny outside from being boiled that makes a bagel a bagel) -1 star for value My lox sandwich was delicious though! Just not the bagel. And it was waaay overpriced! The sandwich you can pay $9 for half (open faced and they just keep the other half but they "can sell it to you if you ask" um no that's weird!) or $16.50 for both halves (basically what you'd normally get) which is crazy expensive like the bagel sandwich you get on vacation at a 5 star hotel where you have zero options - Not in downtown LA! -4 stars for sandwich taste (loved everything except the bagel and except the bad value) It was delicious though with the drizzle of oil, lemon pepper and the smoked salmon was fresh and the cream cheese was fluffy and they were generous with the capers Hence my 4 star review. I won't return but if you don't mind bagels that aren't real bagels and you don't care about the price then I do recommend it here read more

This is a family owned Bagel shop. Established back in 1953. We had a pot luck yesterday at one of my friend's house and we all needed to bring something. I volunteered to bring 2 dozen bagels for everyone. This shop is a very unique, special place. Very near and dear to my heart. When I used to work on Beverly blvd, we used to get different types of bagels for our coworkers. We have never had a problem with the taste, texture, quality and service. The shop is not too big and they have nowhere to sit. Basically is grab and go type of a place. I got a good mixture of bagels and everything tasted very fresh & delicious!! 10/10. Prices are very reasonable for the size of the bagels. They have super friendly staff and even if the line gets a little long, they clear that line fast and quick. They have all types of cream cheese, sandwiches, hot and cold beverages from water, to OJ, to coffee, tea, latte and a whole lot more. If you haven't already tried this place, do yourselves a favor and go there. You will not be disappointed!! 100% guaranteed. Street parking only and gender neutral restroom. Place is very clean and the rest, I am leaving it up to your own discretion. Go, get your bagel fix ASAP!! Most of us LOVE bagels, this place truly delivers in every way. Thank you staff, management for your loyalty, dedication, for over the decades. Last, but not least thank you for this ICONIC, Brooklyn Bagel Bakery. I think this place used to be called Bagel Factory back in the days..If I am not mistaken. It's been a while... Nostalgia. BIG time... read more

Everything bagel was very hard and stale. Ordered one for my sandwich and one plain with a side of cream cheese, both were rock hard. My sister also ordered a breakfast sandwich (jalapeño bagel) and the bagel itself was also hard. Not sure if we were served day old bagels, but it's not worth giving them another try. read more

The bacon, egg, avocado, & cheese sandwich with garlic cream cheese on the cheese/onion is the most incredible bagel I've had between both coasts! I've heard from native New Yorkers that they approve of Brooklyn Bagel and I had to follow the suggestion. Their classic tomato open-face is also super refreshing. I like their wide selection of bagels to choose from. We came at a good time and got straight to the cashier, but a line formed quickly behind us. Our 1.5 bagel order came out within a decent amount of time for my hunger to build up but it was worth it for the warm bagel sandwich. The iced vanilla latte is very decent and priced well. Unfortunately, they only have very limited outdoor seating. It would be great to have a little more seats because I needed to stand outside the store and eat my bagel immediately because they're so good when it's hot. read more

Brooklyn bagels was great. I had the egg bagel and my partner had an everything bagel. We really enjoyed the bagels. We went late in the day so the options were limited but the full menu is solid. The staff were helpful and happy to answer questions. The vibes give off what a bagel shop should be like. The parking isn't easy but isn't impossible either. I will be back! read more

I bought 2 dozen bagels here this morning for an office baby shower. Workers were cool. I was so excited to eat it since I waited an extra 6 mins to get fresh sesame and plain from the oven. The bags were still warm when I dropped it off in the conference room to set up. But what happened was embarrassing: some bagels were good and some tasted stale. My everything bagel was dry and I was horrified to think the rest would be like that. While we were cleaning up I started to ask the committee folks if they ate a bagel. I found out the everything bagel and another type were definitely the wierd ones. Ugh! read more

tl;dr one of LA's longest tenured bagel specialists, this Westlake bakery is firmly average at a relatively reasonable price Brooklyn Bagel Bakery is only of the oldest bageleries in Los Angeles, originally founded in 1953. This makes it over half a century older than the LA's trendiest bagel specialists. But Brooklyn has been a player in the LA wholesale game for decades, supplying some of LA's most reputable cafes (including Langer's just a few blocks away). So it's no wonder that the brand's direct-to-consumer brick-and-mortar shop off Beverly is routinely ranked among the city's premier bagel destinations. Outside, a few benches sit beneath the sprawling awnings and the vertical, royal-blue bagel sign. The contemporary rap shaking the walls is a sharp contrast to the retro decor. The whitewashed walls are adorned with old-school photographs of the Brooklyn Dodgers and the original red, white, and blue menu board from 1978. Filamented bulbs cast a warm glow around the stainless steel and worn-wood trim. Even deep into the morning, the ovens churn out steaming hot bagels. With just a narrow standing-only bar counter, most customers opt for takeout. My partner and I visited late on a weekend morning, and we faced a short wait after placing our order. The bagels were bready like grocery store varieties, and the dough leaned toward soft pretzel. The main advantage of Brooklyn was the unique bagel varieties. Our favorite was the Pizza Bagel (decked with baked mozzarella and Italian spices); it was just a dollop of marinara away from being a serviceable pizza alternative. Otherwise, the Everything and Egg Poppy Bagels were average, and the Cranberry Apple Bagel was subtly fruity at best. Meanwhile, the cream cheese was light and whipped. The lox variety was slightly gritty owing to the thinly sliced, well-proportioned lox mised in, while the Nutella-infused spread was overpoweringly sweet and chocolatey. Our bill worked out to $15 total across 4 bagels and 2 small spreads. The service seemed efficient but was mostly transactional. Prices felt reasonable (loose bagels hovered around the $2 range), even if nothing stood out inherently as premium. Brooklyn Bagel Bakery may not be worth a dedicated visit out of your way, but it can accommodate an adequate bagel if you're already in the neighborhood. read more

Stumbled upon this place by happenstance and boy am I glad I did! I got a vanilla latte, a chocolate chip bagel, and a bacon, egg & cheese. Latte was good, the chocolate chip bagel was great, but the sandwich... DAMN was it amazing! I can't stop thinking about it. The size was even too big for me to finish, and I like to eat! But mama didn't raise no quitter, so after a few minutes I took the last few bites and put it to bed. The gal at the counter was super sweet and helped with this first time customer by giving me a few suggestions of what to try. A appreciated her patience and eagerness to help me out. Walking into this place felt like taking a step back in history, felt like an old time corner bakery, there were half a dozen folks running about working, made some friends in line, and the wait was practically none. The whole place had a familiar and welcoming vibe to it. My new go to place whenever I make a trip down to Silverlake. Highly recommend to everyone. Sorry, no pic of my food, I was so hungry I forgot to take one! read more

Just ok but I am comparing it to its former state. In the 90s i would step off the sidewalk into their factory/ kitchen and walk out with a bag of warm bagels. We lived at the brewery and it was relatively close. Today their choices are less and not as good read more

It was my first time and the lady behind the counter was so nice and patient with me, even though a line was forming behind me, she ensured me it's okay and wanted to make sure I got what I wanted! Got my bagel and it's delicious! Thank you! read more

This is my favorite bagel spot. I work in a hospital and many reps come to give in-service on their product, they happened to bring brooklyn bagels because they are opened earlier than most(6am) places. Bagels are simple and quick, yet these were so satisfying. My coworkers and I have ordered on our own and have experienced 1 unfortunate missing order. I've been plenty time on my own to pick up for my family and they love it here. Parking isnt always easy, its street parking so first come first serve. You'll find something. As far as the shop, its small, a single line works best, there are no seats, its well lit with indoor light and window lighting. You can see the preparatipn of the bagels, being placed into their oven and being pulled out. Single file line is what works best to not crowd. read more

This bagel shop offers a variety of bagel flavors. I ordered one my favorites, the cheese and jalapeño bagel with an iced coffee. The bagels are always so fresh and the staff are always friendly. What makes this place truly special, though, is the nostalgia that it brings. Revisiting after many decades felt like stepping back in time. When I was younger my grandma and I would walk here to pick up bagels, back when it was where the gym is now. Truly a special place with amazing bagels and friendly staff. read more

Great place for a delicious bagel! Went with my husband (who doesn't like bagels or cream cheese), and he really loved his plain bagel bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich! I got the same thing but on an everything bagel and it was so delicious! It gets pretty busy but the service is amazing and speedy. It's a small shop but our experience was great most def will be back! read more

Went on a Sunday at 6:30am. It's all street parking, so good luck. But the time I went it wasn't a problem :). When I went it was busy with locals and pickups! The atmosphere was quite friendly and although it was busy, people there were all nice. There is not inside or outside seating so everything is to go. I got the LOX bagel with 6 assorted bagels and a pumpkin latte with almond milk. The lox bagel was good and thick. It all tastes pretty fresh. The assortment of bagels all feels nice and soft and I equate that to fresh... (I'm not a bagel expert :p) The latte was good. I only wish that there was a larger option :), but all good! If I am in the area again and the parking is easy, I'll definitely be back! read more

Our bagels were hard and not fresh for a Sunday at 7 am they should have been pretty fresh, instead they tasted a day old and we got a variety of bagels to take home. My husband is a big bagel lover and I was excited to find a place by our favorite hotel. We have been going to Brooklyn Bagels LAX that place had the best freshest bagels at any time of day and their coffee is excellent. The service was poor from the person taking the order, very rushed and I'm sure it was because she was multi tasking, totally not her fault. The ambiance was very cute and I love how the place has maintained its old retro look, very quaint! We will probably not go again. read more

This place reminded me why Im not a bagel fan. Had a veggie everything bagel and it was the worst bagel ive ever had. It was so grossly hard that my teeth hurt after a few bites (i was hungry i still tried to eat it) and the bottom half of the bagel was aggressively salty for some reason. The OJ was tasty and fresh but the bagel was probably leftovers from last month it was that bad read more

I love this bagel place! Everyone is always very friendly and there is plenty of seating. There is a ton of parking in the lot right behind the restaurant. I ordered a semame bagel toasted with cream cheese, cucumbers, red onions, and turkey. I love the texture and taste of their bagels but I wish they used different turkey--It tastes a bit watery/artificial. Besides the deli meat, this place is a 5/5. They give such generous portions which is a MAJOR plus!!!! Also, they were giving out samples of the cinnamon muffin and it was DELISH!!! read more

First of all, it's a nice place, the prices are very reasonable, and the bagels are good. HOWEVER, don't order the jalapeno smear, since it is not a cream cheese smear, it is something like an atomic sauce that will burn off your face. I'd order bagels here again, but NEVER the Jalapeno smear, since it is pure jalapeno and no cream cheese, so far as I could tell. read more

First time trying here :) it's a cute little bagel store with coffee options. We got the lox sandwich on jalapeño cheese bagel. The sandwich is $14.50 and I realized I should've just made this at home. I love small bagel shops and this one has a rich background in LA, but the sandwich is definitely not worth that much. I compare the price bc I'm from the Bay Area where everything is pricier and my local bagel shops over there wouldn't charge over $12 for a quality bagel sandwich.. For me, there's way too much capers and it was hard to eat without sipping my coffee each time The bagel itself was pretty good, should've just gotten that itself. Also ordered a cold brew- Service was fast despite their busy morning. read more

If you're coming here expecting a trendy, Instagram-ready bagel spot, you're already missing the point!! This is not Courage Bagels. It's not Layla, or any of the newer, hipster bagel places doing $18 schmears and calling it a 'concept'. This spot is old-school. A true New York-style bagel shop that's been holding it down in LA for decades. It's a genuine hole-in-the-wall: minimal parking, a small walk-in counter, you order, you wait, you get your bagels, you leave. No frills, no nonsense vibe. And that's exactly why it's great. They're fast, consistent, and by far the most affordable bagels in the area. I recently got three bagels, a bagel sandwich, shmear, and two drinks for under $45. For context, I paid over $50 for two bagels alone at a different "trendy" spot earlier that week. This place isn't trying to be something it's not. It's an LA staple that does a ton of wholesale, serves its community, and makes damn good, traditional bagels at a fair price. Stop reviewing it like it's a new, boutique bagel shop and start reviewing it for what it actually is: an old-school institution that's doing exactly what it's always done - and doing it well. read more

I've always seen lines outside of this place and knew I needed to give it a try.

Honestly, it's always disappointing when the cashier is friendlier with the person in front of you and then less so when it's your turn. It's happened before but I understood Covid had particular short staffing challenges and with that came many other issues. But I'm not sure excuses It's not the first time either. Regardless of the situation, talking down to someone *especially if they're paying you?!* is generally frowned upon. I will say that the gentleman who handed me my bagel was quite kind and genuine. I'll come back for a bagel bc there aren't any other alternatives nearby but, believe me, I'm looking for other options and I hope others do as well. read more

Brooklyn Bagel Bakery - It's also the right thing to do :) - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Great bagels! Definitely a good competitor against other bagel chains in LA. I tried many different bagels from the everything bagel to the sesame bagel. All the bagels I've had are very flavorful and had a generous amount of toppings which stands out from other bagel chains. They're so flavorful that you can just eat them on their own. They are also nice and dense, satisfying for carb lovers. I didn't get a cream cheese, but I would love to come back and try the bagels with cream cheese from Brooklyn Bagel Bakery. The only thing I'm concerned about is the packaging since I received them in an open bag. Maybe it would be best to keep them fresh and away from harmful things like bugs by putting something on the bag to easily open and close it. read more

Love this place for breakfast any chance I can get. Orange juice with a custom bagel and extra cream cheese. Chefs kiss

As a guy who grew up in Brooklyn, NY, I was really excited to try a good bagel in LA. My go-to order is always an everything bagel, but they were out, so I opted for the cheddar jalapeño bagel, which was absolutely amazing and delicious. Perfectly crispy cheese atop a soft interior. Really enjoyable bagel and not expensive at all. Quick experience and took about 5 minutes from ordering my bagel to receiving it--p.s., parking may be hard to find. 100% be back. I'll be looking to try the everything bagel next! read more

Long curly red hair in my bagel. The gluten-free bagel is absolutely disgusting. It shouldn't even be an option. It's so dry and somehow uncooked. They also put hardly any cream cheese on the sandwich... It said it was herb cream cheese, but it honestly tasted like straight up mayo. This was, however, before I pulled the hair out of my mouth. Sandwich was so messy and half assed. Gross. read more
