Let me start by saying I am from New York and grew up on good bagels. And here I am dreaming about Bubbe's bagel sandwiches. On a quick 1.5 day trip to Tuscon I went twice. I tried the Egg Salad on an Everything Bagel 10/10 The Egg cheese and bacon on everything bagel gave me all my favorite bodega vibes and the egg was crazy fluffy. 10/10 I also tried the pastrami on rye bagel. All were great!! 9/10 Staff is friendly. There was a long line but it went quickly. And i love the shrine to Barbara Streisand! read more

Fresh bagels, friendly staff, consistent quality, you can't ask for much more! I love the flavor of the month (although I do wish some of them can stay forever). read more

Make sure you are taking these bagels to go or plan to eat them in the courtyard outside, because there is no eat-in area. The courtyard is completely covered and has many tables surrounding a fountain, so it's a nice place to eat your bagel. This is a very popular place, but their ordering and paying process is extremely streamlined so the line moves very quick. I really enjoyed the chive cream cheese on my egg, cheese and ham bagel. I thought the bagel was more soft and bread like and didn't have that chewiness I'd expect from a bagel. Hubby ordered the specialty bagel; jalapeño and garlic, and thought it didn't have much flavor to it. Overall, this is a solid breakfast stop. read more

So lucky Bubbe's opened an east side location. This place is a gem! Easy menu, awesome bagels and always fantastic service! Their bagel shop is simple, clean, and always humming when I arrive. Today I tried their monthly special bagel potato and onion! So flavorful and went really well with my tuna! My hubby had a Rueben on the jalapeno cheddar bagel! He loves this sandwich! Sorry I have been late take pictures of the actual sandwiches! read more

Deliciousness! Love love love the cheddar jalapeño bagels. (I've tried several of the others and they've been wonderful too but cheddar jalapeño is my go-to) The sandwiches are full of flavor and so filling - they're the kind of sandwich that is so good that you keep eating it because it's so good even though you're stuffed! I've tried the ham and cheese, the egg salad, and the reuben -- all were very good and I'd definitely try them again after I work my way though trying the rest of them! The prices seem very reasonable to me for what you get. Counter service is fast and friendly! read more

I love their bagels! Sooo fresh and delicious! Went 6 times in one month because I was obsessed with their monthly special! I love that they do that! read more

The best bagels in all of Arizona. I cannot find anything close to it in the phoenix valley. Crave these all the time. Such a treat every time I go to Tucson. read more

I ordered the bagel of the month and I want to tell you, it was awesome. But there was a problem. Because of the sugar on the outside, the bagel stuck to the paper it was wrapped in. It took a few minutes trying to peel the wrapper of the bagel. Maybe you should find a product to wrap the bagels that won't stick to it. read more

I heard about this place while at a salon and the yelp reviews were impressive. I ordered a cinnamon crunch with honey lavender. It did not disappoint Service was polite and fast It's mostly a grab and go type of place. No seating area. read more

When I want, no crave, a bagel, this is where I go. I drive past no less than 6 places to get a bagel on my way there. Excellent value and great service - what else can you hope for?! read more

This was my first time here so you order right as you walk in the door, right in front of the bagel selection and pay at the other end of the counter. I ordered the daily special, herb tomato bagel (toasted) with basil cream cheese and my daughter ordered the egg & cheese bagel sandwich. My daughter loved the soft scramble of the egg. I like the amount of cream cheese and the chewy inside, but I'll have to try a different bagel flavor next time. There's not a lot of room as you wait for your bagel, but there are a few small tables on the side of the building to eat them. read more

I have been a massive Bubbe's fan for years, but typically go to the other location. Today, though, I swung through the original location to pick up breakfast. Obviously, it's stellar! The aroma of fresh bagels is heavenly, and my everything bagel with chive and green onion cream cheese was perfect as I always expect from Bubbe's. Our order came out quickly, even with a bit of a line. This shop is tiny, but executing their food flawlessly. read more

Great little bagel shop. We've been told these are the best bagels in Tucson and we can't complain. We haven't tried many other bagels around town, but the bagels and schmears are good. We haven't had anything more extensive on the menu, but honestly, who needs more than that? Good to know before you go: this is a small shop with a counter for ordering and no inside seating. There are some concrete planters outside a few small cafe tables and chairs. Seems to be mostly a to-go place. Worth it. read more

I had Bubbe's Bagels while visiting in Tucson. I only give a bagel vendor 5 stars when their bagel quality is as good as true New York bagels or Boichik (Bay Area) bagels. The bagels I bought at Bubbe's are as good as you can get short of my standard. I would buy them again the next time I'm near one of their stores. If you live near a Bubbe's and want bagels, they are the place to go. read more

Ive had their bagels brought in by a coworker at the office so I stopped in for a breakfast bagel. They have a simple straight forward menu. I ordered the egg and cheese bagel with bacon on an everything bagel. The bagel was fresh, the bacon had some pepper which I enjoyed along with the fluffy eggs. I enjoyed my sandwich but the only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the price. I thought the sandwich was a little high but a lot of places are so that's not it entirely. What made an impact was asking for cream cheese to be added to the sandwich which resulted in an extra 2.50 for a schmear of cream cheese. I think it's a little steep...just my opinion. Overall a good bagel and sandwich. read more

I am obsessed with this place! Everything is fantastic from the vintage aesthetic to the customer service and obviously, the food. I was so happy to find a good breakfast bagel and this place hits it out the park every single time. Their smears are also tasty and I love they offer a monthly special flavor. read more

My fav bagel shop in Tucson. Bagels have just the right amount of bounce without being too chewy. Sometimes a long line on weekend but usually moves pretty quick. Worth the wait. read more

My daughter heard about this place on social media so we had to try it and boy. Oh boy new addiction discovered I don't know what they put in their bagels, but they are amazing. They have so many flavors so many combinations with their unique spreads you can see them literally baking the bagels while you're placing your order which we happen to get open face locks and it was delicious. We got it on a garlic bread with onions and chives cream cheese spread, and then we took a couple to go. We took some jalapeño and cheddar and we took some plain and we took some additional garlic bagels and their chives spread. Oh I forgot to mention we went two days in a row. The the bagel shop itself is small but practical where you do as you walk in you place your order right away you go pay and then you just wait for your order. There's no sitting area if you want to sit there's outside patio but it's like the shopping center common area but within the little bagel shop there isn't any sitting area but it's really cute. It's decorated really cute it looks extremely clean. You can literally see everybody working in the back and how clean everything is so that that itself is amazing. read more

Tasty bagel options with many delicious shmear options, too, and coffee! We tried the cinnamon sugar bagel with honey lavender shmear, and the sesame with garlic chive shmear. Lavender was strong but tasty! read more

Great bagels, best on the eastside, maybe all of Tucson. Garlic and Onion are favs! Its clean and the bagels are hard to beat

This bagel spot was great, quick kind service and delicious food. The bagels were nice and chewy and the cream cheese was tangy and smooth (& with ample portions of cream cheese!) We got a cinnamon raisin bagel and a poppy seed one to try. The flavor of the cinnamon one was more mild than I usually like, but overall still good! read more

Everytime I go to this place there is a line. I always consider that a good sign. Mind you it isn't a big place as there aren't any inside sit down options, just a cute and bright lobby. If you take a minute to look around you will see the bagels being steamed and they, a rack with coffee mugs and recipe books, and a plaque that says voted best bagel in Tucson awarded in November 2022. I've been here a few times and it has always been a great experience. I've only ever gotten the everything bagel but they have several bagel and schmear options and a seasoning option as well. For December it was chocolate chip bagels and cannoli schmear which sounds great if you have a sweet tooth, but I'm a savory person. The bagel can be made toasted as an option and this place doesn't skimp on the smear like a lot of other bagel shops in town. In fact, you are guaranteed to get the schmear on your hands as it oozes out the edges of the bagel when you bite into it. I've tried both the garden schmear and the Calabrian pepper and both were good. The bagel itself can be described as dense, soft but still light and fluffy. The seasoning on the everything bagel is spot on. Having said all this, I still reminisce about my adventures in NYC and having their bagels and cream cheese which, so far, has been untouchable despite the many places I've had bagels in the USA. Must be the water, right? However, Bubbe's iis the next best thing when you are in Tucson. They do serve bagel sandwiches and I'm thinking of trying the Rueben bagel next time. They also serve coffee which I've never tried but I like their creamer options especially their alternative choices like oatmilk. This is a place I can happily recommend. read more

Love the jalapeño cheddar bagel! I got the ham and cheese on the jalapeño bagel and it was delicious! It was enough for lunch and I felt satisfied. The food is great but customer service was not. Maybe it was an off day but I felt very unwelcomed. The guy who did ring me up in the end was friendly, but the gals who I ordered with were unfriendly :( The bagels are worth giving it another try though read more

It really means a lot that this place has vegan options, you can barely find vegan cream cheese in Tucson. Thank you so much! Delicious food. read more

Such a great spot! Awesome people- delicious bagels. So glad to have them be a part of the Tucson community. read more

The bagels are amazing. They have a slight sour dough taste to them. They are always extremely fresh. They use the best cc to bagel ratio too! I haven't ever had a sandwich from here but I did try the lox and salmon bagel, highly recommend. The service is usually fast but they're never very friendly but I usually just stop in and order Togo so it doesn't really bother me. I can't stop thinking about their monthly special dill pickle cream cheese wish that would come back! read more

This place is our bestttt bagel place. Sometimes they bake the bagels too lightly, leaving to be .. not a bagel. However it's amazing tasting and sooo good and fairly priced. Pls bring back the rosemary bagel. I'm so sad it's not a regular staple. Also the jalapeno bagel should have jalapeno in the bread, it's weirdly just on top of the cheese, no point in getting that bagel instead of the plain. read more

Best bagel in town. Staff was extremely friendly and even laughed when I asked if this place was pronounced like "boobies." He said they get that a lot, but it's like "bubbies." We ate in the little courtyard outside and it was lovely. read more

Favorite place to get a bagel in Tucson and conveniently located in two places, one on Wilmot and the other location on River. I ALWAYS get the lox bagel sandwich and I've tried several of the savory/salty bagels and they are superb. The bagels are super moist and fluffy. If they have any seasonal cream cheese flavors I would recommend trying (for fun), they are good and I've never been disappointed. The staff is always kind and they always have on masks this makes me feel comfortable when coming in Bubbes. My only complaint is the lack of comfortable seating at the wilmot location outside. I don't hang out and eat my bagel there because it just isn't comfy to sit outside and there's no seating inside. There's a couple of chairs and you can sit on the edge of a fountain that isn't functional. It kinda has this dead deserted mall vibe! read more

5 star bagel joint. We like to buy a few bagels and green onion schmearz probably weekly now. Its consistent with freshness, quality and flavor. A highlight for me is the staff. Literally each person who works there is charming, nice, friendly and they all remember you, too! Always a cash tip for the crew bc it never lets us down even tho it's busy and bustling! 5 stars in Tucson at this location, with no problems ever! We love that! whoop whoop thanks y'all keep up the good team work! read more

A tasty selection of well flavored bagels in a small, to-go setting. Several bagel flavors to choose from, including the hard-to-find bialy (bialy are only available on Sat and Sun). Also several cream cheese options, which they pack on nice and thick. They make a good bagel. read more

Bubbe's bagels are good. But they are very overpriced. They offered a straight forward menu of bagel sandwiches, but they are about 13 dollars. Ouch. And the reason why this matters is because the bagels are small. Also, the way they cook their eggs is kind of gross. read more

I've eaten a few (thousand) bagels in my life and Bubbe's is right up there. Glad you're in our small town making big city bagels.

Marketing does not make up for a lack of craftsmanship. Photo no 1 shows the furikake bagel posted by Bubbe's on Instagram. Photo no 2 shows the furikake bagel I got on Sunday. Either they ran out of seaweed and the oven broke down before the bagel was done or the person who made this abomination was on their first day on the job. Proper training should be above making a fast buck. Getting bagels from this place is a gamble: some days they are great, some days they are almost inedible. Some days the bagels are so undercooked they taste raw, on other days they are overcooked with a thick hard crust. On the days in between they are perfect. Which shows they can do it, why they don't is something only they know read more

Overall, a great bagel and a good selection. The staff is friendly, and they adhere to food handling safety very well. There were no problems with the service, everyone was friendly. An easy 5-minute wait from order, to food being made and served. Nice little seating area outside next to trade joes that you can sit down and enjoy your food. 5 starts all around. I grew up in NYC and bagels were a staple of my childhood. These bagels come pretty close. And the prices are on par! read more

First and foremost, the bagels are made the way they should be. There's a nice chew on the outside with a soft center. Be aware that Bubbe's is serious about their schmeer. The usual amount of schmeer comes out of the sides when you bite into the bagel, and I usually end up wiping that part away. I typically order a plain bagel with the honey lavender cream cheese. Yum. The service at this location is prompt and friendly. We definitely will continue to visit often. read more
