Got the lox with an everything bagel and loved everything about including the freshness of the salmon. I also got the Calic Experience Box with 2 Signature, 2 Habanero, 1 Pepperoni Pizza, and 1 Bacon Scallion. I tried the Signature and Habanero first, and I really liked the kick from the Habanero. The Signature was also really good and honestly a must-try for first timers and you can't really go wrong with it. The Bacon Scallion was super flavorful too. Everything was really good, but definitely on the heavier side. I'd still come back for sure. They validate parking in the lot, and there's plenty of seating inside even on a weekend, which was nice. read more

Calic Bagel - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came to try out Calic Bagel cause I heard good things and felt like I needed more garlic in my life. It seems like a popular spot in Ktown-ish that is known for their stuffed bagels. Its a pretty casual spot where you order at a counter or kiosk and then pick up your food when its ready. As I no longer live in LA, I, of course, had to order like 4 bagels to try. We got the signature calic, elote calic, potato bacon calic, and the bacon scallion. My eyes are always bigger than my stomach and ultimately, I just wanted a taste of them all. Sadly, I found the bagels to be a bit lackluster for the price. The garlic flavor is prominent but, as with a lot of Korean foods, there was just too much sweet for my personal tastes. I should also just recognize that bagels aren't really my thing and despite it being appealing to look at, they didn't really hit home for me. They're quite pricey at close to $10 a bagel and while filling, don't seem to have much substance (its essentially a bagel and flavored cream cheese). Am I glad I came, sure, I got to try something new and didn't have to wait in ridiculously long lines but would I return? Unlikely but again, if you're into this kind of thing, its good. read more

Calic Bagel - Order/pickup counter - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We ordered the lox and egg and cheese bagel sandwiches on a plain bagel as well as the jalapeño cheddar bagel. The egg is fluffy and had a tad hint of sweetness which tasted really good. The jalapeño cheddar bagel was soft and chewy and was definitely the star of the show. We came on a Saturday around 11am, there were about 6-7 people ordering in front of us (orders are via kiosk) but there were many more people waiting for their order, we waited about 30 minutes. It's definitely a popular bagel spot. They keep you informed of your order's progress via the monitors. There is seating about indoor and outdoors and a parking structure conveniently located downstairs which does not require valet or payment. Overall good ambiance, crowded but worth the wait if you're willing. read more

Potato bacon for the win first of all! Sorry had to get that out first. I got here around 11am the line was slightly long not to crazy so we waited you can look around and check out the trinkets while you wait. Then you get to the register and they have tablets to pay and order. I got a classic garlic and then the potato bacon and an iced biscoff cookie I forgot which one it was. I didn't really like it enough to remember the name 3 out of 10 iced latte. But the food was amazing. The size of those bagels were huge!! I really liked the garlic bagel but enjoyed the potato cheese and bacon bagel wow u can taste the flavor in them. Honestly it was great read more

YES!!! Definitely lives up to the hype. I got the signature garlic and habanero garlic to try. The habanero was perfection. If you like spicy it had a kick that lingered giving the bagel an extra punch. The signature garlic had a hint of sweetness paired with the tangy garlic. Both were delicious and perfect for sharing alternating between sweet and spicy. There were so many flavors to choose from I can't wait to come back and try more! read more

I love this place! My favorite bagel to get is the garlic habanero, which is such a classic. It has a slight kick to it and I personally prefer it over the regular garlic one. The bagels have been fresh and crispy all the time I've came here. They're buttery and flavorful, with a generous amount of cream cheese. There's a parking garage to use for when you come which is very convenient and helpful. The service is fast and it's not that busy anymore in my opinion. There are several options for seating indoor or outdoor. read more

Calic Bagel - Bacon Scallion Calic - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here for brunch and got a few items: signature garlic, bacon scallion and pepperoni pizza for a group of us. The signature garlic was really good but after two bites, you can really tell how rich the food was and it came a bit too much. The bacon scallion was better because there were more texture like the bacon bits. I didnt get to try the pepperoni pizza but he said it was really good Overall not sure if I'll be back. Food was good but too much. read more

Calic Bagel - Signature Calic (Garlic) - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I have seen this place on social media and finally got to try this! There's a small parking structure so it was easy to find a spot for a Monday morning. It wasn't crowded and we easily ordered on the kiosk. We got the: Signature Garlic Bagel Bacon Scallion Garlic Bagel Banana Matcha Latte It came out nice and hot and it was satisfying pulling the bread apart. It was delicious and they didn't skimp on the garlic flavor. The matcha was so good and reminds you of the Korean Banana Milk drink. There are several tables inside to sit at as well as water and tea self serve stations. It was delicious and worth the hype! read more

Calic Bagel is my favorite bagel spot in LA. The bagels are super soft and chewy with the perfect texture, and everything tasted really fresh. I typically get the Signature Calic (garlic) bagel or Elote and both were delicious with the perfect amount of stuffing. The shop itself has seating indoors and outdoors, and there is a free parking garage directly under. Staff is wonderful and you can see all of the different types of bagels on display, which makes it easier to pick! read more

Calic Bagel - Signature Calic (Garlic), Elote Calic - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been wanting to try this spot for months and I'm so glad I paid it a visit! There's no parking structure so just be on the lookout for street parking. This shop offers both indoor and outdoor seating & you order on a screen. I ordered the signature garlic bagel & the chicken pesto sandwich on a cheddar jalapeño bagel. I'd rate both a 7.5/10! Delicious, just a tad pricey ($26). I really liked how soft and warm the signature bagel tasted, and it was even slightly sweet. They also offered drinks and Korean snacks. I tried the passion fruit aloe vera juice & my friend got a poppi soda. I enjoyed my time there & would go back again for a signature bagel . I forgot to order a cheesecake but they also had pastries to try. I will be back to try their biscoff cheesecakes read more

Pro Tip: Order ahead online if you need a dozen or more to avoid the in store chaotic craze. Had a great experience here. Ordered about 3-4 dozens of stuffed bagels for an event in USC. We did order ahead online and it was ready and swift by the time we came in for pick up. Flavors were delicious the garlic and habanero one was a crowd favorite. Perfect grab and go bite for the early mornings! read more

First impression parking is difficult to find so beware. You order on a kiosk which was fine because I was able to go through the menu and decide what I wanted. Plenty of seating inside and out. While waiting did notice that everyone used the kiosk to order so I'm not sure if that's the only way to order or via their app. The bagels were delicious definitely see why they are so busy. read more

So yummy! I've never had bagels like this before - cut into six parts and put back together with cream cheese. We got the habanero and elote, both were really good. I liked the hot sauce too! It was a nice compliment cause the cream cheese doesn't really touch the outer pat of the bagel as much. The line moved quickly when we got there at like 11:15am! Plenty of seating outside. Loved the vibe, very modern! read more

Calic Bagel - Signature Calic (Garlic) & LA Lox - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The area isnt the greatest. It's a little murder backdrop, drug deal gone awry or crackheads dancing naked for me but they do offer underground parking (if you can find it) and an elevator that leads you to the eatery. I ordered the chicken bagel sandwich, the elote bagel and the biscoff latte with oat. My total was 20 something...I think. Chicken bagel sandwich was okay. It definitely needed more of the sauce used. I was full after half. The Elote bagel was disappointing. Flavor was fine but they were so stingy with the actual corn. Why call it corn anything?! The latte was okay. You cannot customize coffee orders. I probably wouldn't come back here. Maybe, I would get delivery? read more

Went here with my kids after a hike since we've been hearing so much about it. My mom lives nearby, so we made a day out of it. We tried the Chevy's Pollowich (chicken pesto sandwich) and a Potato Bacon Calic (their stuffed bagel), and their Signature Garlic plus a couple of drinks. Overall, I get the hype--it's definitely been trending. The standout for me was actually the quality of the bagel itself. Super fresh, soft, and fluffy... you can tell that's what they really do best. The Potato Bacon Calic was really good and unique, and the sandwich was solid, but the bread is what carries everything. Also, the matcha was bomb!! Overall, not bad at all--good experience, and I'm glad we tried it. I'd come back, especially for the bagels. read more

Back to trying some more bagels at my fave bagel spot. So let's see if they're pretty good eh or ew. This time I got their jalapeño bagel, classic garlic bagel, and limited time toomba stuffed bagel to try. The jalapeño bagel was topped with plenty of cheesy cheddar cheese and spicy jalapeños and had that classic pillowy, fluffy, full, chewy, interior and crisp exterior that I love. The garlic bagel was STUFFED with rich, creamy cream cheese and packed full of garlicky flaves. If they added real roasted garlic chunks in it it would've taken it to the next level. The toomba bagel was again full of that rich savory cream cheese and was a bit spicy and had some extra cheesy flaves. The fried ramen topping added a nice extra crunch and textural contrast too. It even came with this cool toomba luggage tag. Overall these bagels were lowkey pretty good. Jalapeño cheese bagel $4 Stuffed Garlic bagel $9 Stuffed toomba bagel $9 read more

The service was pretty quick and efficient, the place is well organized. The store is really cute and has some merch as well as some exotic snacks and sauces. The bagels are great. I have only tried the original Calic ones with the dip on them and I've liked them all. They are not very expensive and they do get you full. I love the garlic calic, it's slightly sweet and garlic is not too overpowering. The habanero is also a favorite and we tried the potato one this time around, I'm not the biggest fan of the potato but not bad. They have great flavors to explore but I do have to say they fill you up quite a bit and it feels like a heavy meal. Especially the amount of spread they have already on them. Best when shared. Coffee looks great, I'm excited to try it next time. read more

Calic Bagel did not disappoint! It's a very trendy bagel shop in Koreatown. The bagels are chewy, soft and they are known for their stuffed bagels. Had the Garlic and Elote. It's on the buttery and creamier side but has tons of flavor. There is a wait to get the bagel. All the bagels came heated. If you are not planning on eating it there I would ask them not to heat it. They have indoor and outdoor tables. Garage parking in the building! read more

Calic Bagel - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I loved how easy and convenient it is to get here! They have free underground parking right by the little plaza which makes it stress free and enjoyable here, if you'd like to come to study or spend time with friends! They offer mobile order, in person, and DoorDash! When you order in person, they have someone at the counter for questions or anything like that but you order on the kiosk in front of them. The employees we met were all kind, helpful, and insightful on their menu and offered great service! My biscoff latte tasted like a regular latte but it was still creamy and the soft top with the cookie crumble really helped add more biscoff flavor. Before trying these bagels I was scared because I saw some reviews online about something about these bagels being sweet. So I opted for a simple toasted bagel with their plain cc because I am not a fan of sweet cc. I loved the jalapeno cheddar bagel option, the bagel was soft and perfectly toasted. My friend ordered the bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel with added plain cc and omg it was so good. I am particular with eggs but I was pleasantly surprised with the egg in their sandwich and loveddd that the bacon was really thick cut bacon, perfectly cooked and offered a Smokey flavor to the sandwich and it was just delish. Will definitely return in the future and tells others to come! Ps. Lotsss of potential Junk journal materials! from merch you buy to the complimentary stickers. read more

overall: if I'm in the area I'll definitely be back to try more of their menu and to try their drinks food: we got the signature calic and the bacon scallion calic. the signature was really good and not too dense. the bacon scallion I felt the bacon flavor was too strong and covered up the other flavors. I love that the bagels were warm too. service: we ordered through the app but the bagels came out pretty quickly. we went on a weekday before noon and it wasn't too busy. ambiance: plenty of seating inside and outside with outlets and wifi. not too loud or busy. parking: good amount of free parking in their parking structure. read more

We came just in time before the long line! The parking isn't great so be mindful of the garage but the staff was kind and the line moved quickly! The coffee wasn't anything too special if anything it didn't really wake me up. Interested in trying the matcha next time. I got the ham egg and cheese bagel sandwich with chipotle but i took out the cheese when ordering. This was our favorite! The chipotle really made the sandwich. We also got the stuffed pizza bagel and the bacon and onion stuffed bagel. I would say the pizza one was my second favorite then the bacon and onion third. The bacon and onion reminds me of a loaded baked potato in a bagel form. They were all good but in the future I'd probably get a breakfast sandwich and still want to try their signature. Worth a try! read more

So good! The bagel was soft and pillowy, not chewy. The stuffing was a bit too much for me (I got the pepperoni pizza bagel). My boyfriend got one of the bagel sandwiches. Sadly, the coffee was too small in my boyfriend's opinion but I had the spicy morning one and thought it was great. You order yourself and the servers do a good job to calling out your name. The place was super crowded and not a whole lot of sitting space. You can tell they're usually pretty busy too. read more

Calic Bagel - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Bagels were buttery and flavorful and the drinks were top notch. I definitely recommend the lox bagel and the banana matcha latte.

‍ I love bagels, but Calic bagels are next next level. The bagels are more airy and light. My go to is the signature--very garlicky, warm and cream cheese in every bite. There is a parking structure which is nice. I recommend ordering ahead online as it does tend to get busy, but it's an organized chaos. Employees are great and everything is pretty fast paced. I also tried the pizza bagel--wonderful choice as well! The banana matcha latte has great balance of aromatic matcha and subtle banana milk. I definitely recommend trying Calic if you enjoy bagels! read more

Food We tried three bagels: corn, jalapeño, and their signature. All were delicious, but the Mexican street elote bagel was the standout, flavorful and unique. A bit pricey, but definitely worth it for the quality. Service Ordering is done through self service screens, no traditional cashier. Staff were still very friendly and attentive, walking around to help and answer questions. One employee especially went above and beyond when we asked questions at pickup. Ambiance Clean, modern, and relaxed. Plenty of space inside, plus a nice outdoor patio. Even with several customers, it didn't feel crowded. They also sell merch and items from small vendors, which adds a cool touch. Parking and Accessibility They have their own free parking garage, which was a big plus. There are stairs involved, so accessibility may be limited unless there's an elevator or ramp we missed. Payment Card and contactless payments only. No cash accepted. Overall Great bagels, kind staff, and a clean, spacious vibe. A solid spot if you're craving something different and flavorful. read more

Calic Bagels is unreal. The bagels are insane -- perfectly soft and chewy with so much flavor in every bite. The cheese flavors are next-level, and the variety is impressive; every option is actually on point (no filler flavors here). The pizza and habanero bagels were my favorites, but honestly you can't go wrong with anything you order. Super easy to order for takeout, consistently amazing quality, and just an all-around standout bagel spot. Huge fan. Clean, modern, relaxed ambiance. read more

Calic Bagel - Bagels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

First off, my order was placed and delivered thru Uber Eats. The order was prepared and sent off very quickly, and without any mistake. Here is a run down of a few of the items we ordered: Signature Calic: My favorite amongst everything we ordered. Very garlicky and creamy! Highly recommend. Breakie Bagel: My order! I was not a huge fan, sadly. I felt that the sandwich was pretty dry, and lacked enough cheese and bacon. I wouldn't personally wouldn't reorder! Overall, some hits, some misses. However, I would be interested in exploring more of the menu in the future! read more

This place has been on my list since it opened and I finally stopped by. I feel like the bagels can be a bit overwhelming but are good to share especially if you're getting a filled bagel. I did not have their regular bagels so that could be different. After a few bites I will see it's messy and flavors can be a bit much. I would probably come back and share one and get something else too. There was a long line on the weekend but moves quickly. The staff is pretty quick and it's a lively place and lots of outdoor seating. Parking can be okay depending on how busy it is. read more

Really good bagels all around! The bagels were fresh, chewy, and satisfying, and the yuzu shmear was a standout. lightly sweet, citrusy, and such a fun, unique flavor that paired really well with the bagel. Ordering was done through a kiosk, which was easy to use, and the wait time wasn't long at all. The coffee was decent, though a bit heavy on the milk with limited customization options. You can pay extra to add an additional shot of espresso, which helps if you like a stronger coffee. Parking is underground, and you'll need to take an elevator up to reach the shop... not a dealbreaker, but good to know before you go. The ambiance inside was bright, clean, and well-decorated, making it a pleasant spot to enjoy your food. Overall, a great spot for bagels, especially if you're into unique schmear flavors. read more

Calic is so worth the hype. I feel like you can never go wrong with a bagel loaded with cream cheese. I ordered the habanero bagel and it had the perfect amount of creaminess and spiciness to it. It came out hot and fresh. I came a bit past breakfast time so there wasn't much of a line. There is plenty of seating inside and outside the store. I received my order 5 minutes after placing it. Will definitely be coming back to try their other bagels! Parking can be a bit tricky since it's in a shared underground lot with other businesses and the lot is small. Would recommend coming a bit past peak hours so you don't have to fight for parking. read more

Okay, first time trying their stuffed bagels and I'm obsessed already! I ordered 3 different kinds: ~the Signature Calic which is stuffed with garlic cream cheese, ~ the Bacon Scallion Calic filled with bacon scallion cream cheese and topped with cheddar mozzarella and crispy bacon bits; ~ the Elote Calic loaded with Mexican sweet corn cream cheese and garnished with pico de gallo seasoning and cotija cheese. Every flavor and component of the bagel is delectable and savory. The bread is fluffy, chewy and fresh. The silky smooth cream cheese fillings paired so well with the bread. Everything is well-balanced in flavor and just hits the spot. I can't wait to try the other items in their menu. read more

Apparently the time to come is saturday brunch time, cause I was supposed to meet my friend at 10:30 on saturday and there was ample parking in the garage. Such friendly people working omg, there was a lady who asked if I needed help even with the counter service, and the free water and tea was so sweet! My friend was afraid that this place would be overhyped, but she thought it was great! I went in with no expectations and a request from the cousin I was crashing with to get them extra bagels lol. Calic's bagels are different than your grocery store bagels - they're almost fluffy inside with a chewy exterior. My friend and I split two bagels - the bacon scallion and the pepperoni pizza bagel. Both were excellent. There was not a trace of pepperoni in sight, but the cream cheese filling was like eating the tomato bisque version of cream cheese, which I love. The bacon scallion was savory, and didn't also have the sweet that I was worried would come with it. It is a lot of cream cheese, but it's the whipped fluffy kind. I didn't mind the amount of cream cheese, but my cousin's husband found it to be too much. Idk, get an extra bagel and use the spread for that lol. But also, I feel like the bagel and the cream cheese were both fluffy and light, so I didn't feel as full as I thought I would after seeing the calics, or I normally would if I had the same amount of bagel and cream cheese from somewhere else. We also got the yuzu cream cheese and it tasted like a sherbert kinda! Very summery. read more
