We got the everything bagel and the pretzel bun bagel. Both were delicious. I found out when I was waiting in line that Mogi won't be doing order pick ups out of south Minneapolis like they used to. Which will make them a bit harder to find it seems. But if you manage too make sure to grab some.

I often order a dozen to freeze, and sometimes will get the day-old bagels as well. You can order ahead too, which is nice if you are short on time. You can't go wrong with the Everything bagels - they have seasoning on all sides of the bagel! Highly recommend.

This might be the best chocolate chip cookie I've ever had. It is much better than the chocolate chip cookie at Bellacour although they are good there too, however, it is much more decadent at rise bagel. It taste just so much more rich in flavor. I love a good chocolate chip cookie with cold brew or even hot coffee. To me, chocolate and coffee just go together very well. I can't wait to come back and get the chocolate chip cookie again.

The service is always great, although it seems as if there are always "new" employees there that need some mentoring on the cash register. The ambiance depends on the day, but it's kid friendly, senior friendly and has a great selection of coffee and muffins as well. There's even a cute boutique nextdoor that you can wander into after you devour your delicious meal. The bathrooms are always clean and employees come out to wash the tables way more often than I have seen at competitors in the metro area. I cannot describe the deliciousness of the breakfast sandwiches here. If I lived closer, I would be a daily customer. I enjoy other bagel shops in the area, but there's just something about BAB's that is off the charts delicious! Please don't close!!!!!

One of my favorite bagel places in the whole country and I go a lot of places :) Their bagels ARE THE BEST: soft, chewy, always perfectly toasted!! This is my first time trying a sandwich (Santa Fe) and of course it's fantastic (do wish the bagel was toasted but I should have asked)... Favorite thing is their selection of great cream cheese and bagels baked fresh every day! A great place for grab and go or if you're planning a party - cream cheese by the tub! Their space is amazing for remote work and I always grab a coffee (they have an awesome rotating selection). Staff is always friendly!!

For a large coffee and baked goods- I spent about $14!

I looked for a new cafe to enjoy over my birthday weekend. Boy, did this place did not disappoint…read more From the customer service, options on their menu, and cute space, I can for sure tell you I'm going back. The young woman, I forget her name, was upbeat and welcoming. I told her it was my first time and she gave me suggestions and explanations. I changed my mind once or twice and usually you are met with eye rolls at other places, but that wasn't my experience here. She had no problem and actually told me I made the better choice in her opinion. Little things like that go a long way. The food! Overall, I'm not a huge breakfast person. I typically eat yogurt or a simple egg dish. This breakfast sandwich is the best I've ever had. From the runny egg cooked to perfection, fresh avocado slices, crispy bacon, and the bun. The bun! Seems sill to bring so much attention to a bun, but it was fresh, soft, warm, and chewy. I want to buy all their buns. SHOUT OUT TO THE COOKS! ‍ I tried a mint tea and guava kombucha that were both refreshing. Not pictured is a peach danish and pistachio croissant that I cannot wait to dive into. I will definitely be back.

It has a similar thickness as a bagel, but moreso open like an English muffin. I got the one with green onion and added cream cheese--it was scrumptious! I believe they also sell freshly baked bread, but I went too late in the day. I'll be back for another bialy or bagel and hopefully some bread. Please note you need to wear a mask inside, but don't worry if you forget one, as they have plenty right inside. And you cannot eat inside, so plan for takeaway. Staff were friendly and helpful.

I prefer my bagels to be more lightly done, when they're over cooked they seem to lose a little flavor. This location almost always has them just the way I like them.
