I had the lox on everything Begal. Its a cute little place with some seating outside. For 2 oz of salmon, they put about 1lb of cream cheese. Way too much. Had to remove some cream cheese to be able to taste anything. I guess I should have asked if the Begal can be toasted. It would have been better. I'd give it another try. But good god, why so so cream cheese? read more

Two Haiku Review: It's one of the few Jewish delis in NoVA. Good bagels. Despite The line, service was Pretty quick. Note: there is not Much seating outside. read more

Placed an online order and picked it up quickly. The everything bagel with extra lox and capers was excellent! Great bagels!

So happy I found this little spot. What a hidden gem. I love finding spots that have gluten-free bagels and their coffee is fantastic. I am obsessed with the dill pickle cream cheese. read more

This has quickly become my new favorite bagel spot. I love that they sell out daily because you know you're always getting fresh food! You can order ahead multiple ways or stop by and order in line. They have indoor and outdoor seating which is nice and are super dog friendly! They even offer frozen bagels that you can purchase and enjoy at home. If you order ahead, you can just walk in and pick up your order quickly! Everyone is always so kind and helpful. My top two breakfast sandwiches are the cinnamon sugar bagel with turkey sausage, eggs, and cheese cheese or the OG salmon lox on an everything bagel. read more

- online order was ready for pickup on time! - cute small interior... not a lot of seating other than some outside - untoasted bagels are delicious and amazing texture!!! - strawberry cream cheese is miraculous - steak egg and cheese bagel was underwhelming - steak was a bit bland and bagel was too soft (maybe from it being wrapped so it probably softened it since it's warmed) - reuben had good meat. would've preferred it if it was a little tangier with the sauerkraut and if the bread was toasted - love the bagel chips read more

Found this place via Yelp search and so happy we did! Came here for breakfast to try out the pastrami, egg and mustard (OMG Yes!), and some bagels with schmearrrrr! The chewiness of the bagels and the flavors were spot on! I have added it to my must do again in the area, and have already texted all my local friends to tell them to come here! read more

Salt bagel was fine but chicken salad was dry and bland. Price is decent but for a dollar and change more I'd still go to Brooklyn Bagel in Courthouse... read more

Disrespectful..told me they were too busy to make my order today. Who does that? I am a loyal customer and no longer will be. They only want to be accommodating when they are not busy. read more

I heard about this place so decided to stop in. There is just a couple of outdoor seating places and there was a self serve kiosk at the counter so maybe next time just order online since there was a little bit of a wait. I got the everything bagel with cream cheese and the bagel is not the biggest but the bagel was nice and chewy and the cream cheese was ok. Not a bad bagel place but not a top tier one either. read more

Really cute spot to get a bagel sandwich. You can build your own and they have a lot of bagel and topping options to choose from.

Really great food and a unique experience. Felt like a legit Jewish deli in old town. A lot of great fresh options but the service was a tad slow as others have mentioned. Inside was decent size but half of the store is a mini mart of kosher odds and ends. No eating inside due to codes but many tables outside on nice day. Stayed busy all morning long while we ate outside. read more

Really yummy bagel with veggie cream cheese! The wait was only about 15 mins on a Saturday morning. It was full of gourmet treats inside so I didn't mind waiting as I shopped around. Oh! And the donuts were amazing. read more

My salt bagel was pretty good, crispy where it matters and chewy too--but the sad pitiful lone end slice of tomato sorta ruined it. So I went in and offered to pay for some more tomato but the counter clerk, although she went and got me some, seemed irked I asked for more. I really hope the success of this cute little bagel shop doesn't hinge on their marginal cost of tomatoes. I'll try it again sometime. read more

Loved this bagel and sandwich shop! They have tables outside. They have delicious bagels and sandwiches. We ordered the Friday special a jalapeño cheddar bagel with a smear of veggie cream cheese and a classic Reuben sandwich. Love a classic deli that has Dr. Browns in their drink fridge. They also sell local and high end products perfect for gifts. Awesome spot! read more

These are the best bagels in town but they don't come easy. The posted hours are short and they are not always open during those hours. I have mobility issues and getting myself there only to leave without bagels is just too big a risk for me. read more

Excellent bagel chips and bagels ! Lunch sandwiches are meh. I ordered online and selected the veggie AND it came on a pre-made roll (not made there) which I am not sure why that was the default option. It was a melt that was good that would have been better on rye or a toasted bagel. Service was fast. Easy location for parking and pick-up. read more

Wait time was 25 minutes for a bagel and a breakfast sandwich. But they had a board on the wall that kept people up to date with the wait time. Bagel was pretty good! I enjoyed the strawberry cream cheese. When I ordered, I mentioned I had an allergy and the older gentlemen said " ya well a plain bagel is a plain bagel" not quite the response I was looking for but since they were busy I just completed my order and went on my way. read more

As someone who loves a great breakfast sandwich to start the day off right, I can't believe it's been so long and I haven't done a post of this awesome bagel spot! When I say I love chewish deli I truly mean it! Any and every friend or family member that visits, it is a must to take them here. Recently went on a morning bike ride with a friend and to finish off the ride we stopped by Chewish Deli. It is an awesome little, local bagel shop that offers a variety of bagel options and subsequent breakfast sandwiches as well. They do offer coffee/tea and some juices as well. Though I have never been for lunch, I do know they sell lunch food as well which. The service is awesome, for such high traffic/volume the staff is always very friendly and helpful with answering questions! The only downside side, is they don't really have much seating so you likely won't be able to eat there(so that's why I am giving it 4 stars), but they have recently put out a few chairs in the front. But still very limited seating overall. Good news. however, it looks like they are expanding into the other half of the building, so I am hoping it goes from a pick up spot to a place you can also sit down and enjoy the delicious bagels and breakfast that they offer! read more

I decided to check out this bagel spot in Old Town Alexandria, and I wasn't disappointed. It was easy to find and there's street parking available, which was perfect for a Sunday morning. The wait wasn't long at all, and I loved that they let you know when your food will be ready. The ambiance is nice. It's small, there is seating outside. I grabbed an everything bagel with jalapeño cheese spread and turkey (plus lettuce) and a white chocolate coffee. Let me just say the bagel was amazing! Perfectly chewy and fresh, and the spread added a nice kick. The coffee was okay, but it wasn't anything special. They don't have whipped cream or foams, so if you like sweeter, more decadent coffee, this might not be for you. But if you're there for the bagels, you're in for a treat! read more

This place has great Bagels - lived in NYC for 4 yrs and was looking for a similar quality offering they have a great reward system too! You get large discounts if you are a regular customer that add up over time and it's super affordable.. Best spot in the area for a Bagels read more

Not much says you've chosen the right bagel place like a line out the door and several customers waiting outside for their orders. Despite a busy crowd, I was in and out with my bagel in less than 15 minutes. I can't ever turn down an everything bagel, and this one definitely didn't disappoint. The lox cream cheese was generous in quantity and amount of lox. Staff were friendly and food was delicious. read more

There's only a handful of bangle shops with great bagels in the DMV. This is one of them. As I write this, yelp has 4.3 stars ... absolutely crazy, this spot is an easy winner, and fantastic bagels. Great staff, great food, good atmosphere ... but y'all, this isn't a McDonald's, they're good people working to make great food us, if it takes 5-10 minutes, don't complain. Be nice. Chewish Deli is the real deal. Easy 5 stars read more

Underwhelming. The bagels are mediocre. Hard and difficult to chew. Definitely not fresh. Got a sausage egg and cheese, and it was nothing to rave about at all. Maybe it was bad timing since there are a lot of good reviews but the batch we got to try was not good. This is a pick-up counter only. No seating inside or outside. At least our orders came out fast. For the money you pay I wouldn't come back. read more

Food: outstanding, and here's the word or description I am always on the hunt for: quality. This place is quality Service: what you would expect from a deli - fits the description.

Third time picking up my bakers dozen at the Chewish Deli. Love the bagels, but unfortunately they now have a woman working there who no longer allows customers to get plastic bags to store extra bagels. Wtf??? Is this a new rule? How about figuring out how to explain this to customers in a polite way? Your bagels are great, unfortunately this woman is not! Oh, and an apology to the lovely gentleman that was assisting me before this other woman got involved. I hope I didn't get you into trouble! read more

As a native New Yorker, my standards for bagels are very high. Chewish is the only place in Alexandria that meets them. The bagels taste like bagels are supposed to; the staff is friendly and efficient; and the whitefish salad and lox are first rate. And in my hundreds of visits, they've never once mistakenly toasted my bagel. read more

came here on a busy weekend morning so there was definitely a bit of a wait but was pleasantly surprised by the bagel quality! had a delicious asiago bagel sandwich (they ran out of everything bagels sadly). awesome gluten free bagel options for folks with celiac. my gluten free friend really enjoyed her bagel. there's not much seating in the store so i'd recommend walking a short distance to the waterfront park and eating there! read more

As a NJ native, I am picky about bagels and breakfast sandwiches. I was excited to try this place after seeing many positive reviews. I tried to order online and the system was offline, even though they were open. I sent the store a text and they said they turned it off because they had a lot of orders to catch up on. They did text me back once the online ordering was back up and running, which I appreciated. I ordered an egg and cheese breakfast sandwich with bacon and a cold brew coffee. When I arrived (9am on a Saturday) they were pretty backed up. It's a small place so the walk ins place their order and then they wait outside and their order is brought out to them when ready. Since I had placed my order online, it was ready when I got there. I would suggest ordering online if it is available! The walk in orders were still moving pretty fast even though they seemed to be short staffed. I was pretty underwhelmed with my bagel sandwich. The bagel itself was a nice texture but it was small, and there wasn't much meat on it at all. The bacon was very thin and flimsy (kinda like the microwave bacon you see at fast food spots), and there were only 2 pieces. The staff were super nice even though they were backed up. I would give them another try, but I would most likely try just a bagel with Shmear. read more

This bagel spot CHEW(ed) and left no crumbs! Chewish has a great selection of bagels both the classic flavors and also seasonal. I couldn't resist trying their espresso cream cheese, which has a nice espresso flavor with a hint of sweetness. The texture was a bit grainy (I think they put actual ground espresso beans in it) which I really liked but might not be to everyone's liking. The everything bagel was fresh and, per the namesake, was chewy. I also got a latte, which was pretty decent (which for a bagel place is all I really want). There was a bit of a line, but it moved quickly and the food came out quick as well. One of my biggest complaints is that there is not seating inside or outside, which appears to be due to permit requirements. So don't expect to sit! However, they are walking distance to the waterfront which is a great alternative. Overall, the bagel was so tasty but I wish it was bigger!! Compared to a Brooklyn bagel it was ~2/3 the size (meaning I was still hungry afterwards). I would definitely recommend giving this place a try. Can't spell delicious without DELI! read more
