Amazing bagel shop run by a family. My gf and I love the cinnamon brown sugar bagel. Their sandwiches are also tasty!

Amazing bagels and great customer service. Always come here to grab a bagel and a drink. Mom and pop ran

I'm a huge lox and cream cheese bagel fan so I was excited to find a bagel place close to my morning routine. Their lox and cream cheese bagel comes with some non-standard toppings like cucumber and sprouts but I'm a traditional lox and cream cheese bagel kind of girl so I just got it with the usual caper, onions, and tomatoes but did have them add lemon pepper which put it over the top! The bagel had great texture and I love that they didn't skimp on the lox (especially considering it was almost $10). The new owner was very sweet and even gave us some complimentary melon. The orange juice however was a different story. When I asked if it's fresh squeezed, they said it was half fresh squeezed...which is odd but I got it anyway. It was not good. It was bitter and had a giant piece of pulp that kept getting caught in my straw (see photo). I think the organic OJ at Costco is much better. But, nonetheless I'm sure i'll be back as I love a good bagel. read more

If I could give this place 5+ stars I would. First, the people that work here are always so graceful, happy and extremely welcoming. They have perfected the art of customer service! I've tried many of their bagels but the two bagels that are just a HOME RUN for me are their Lox Bagel and their spinach parmesan bagel with the chicken salad! The food is ALWAYS fresh. The flavors are so unique and I love the creativity with the Lox Bagel. They offer a pool of diverse items like their boba popsicles and the Soda Bossa (Guarana) a delicious Brazilian beverage! Overall, this place is spot on. The service meets beyond any expectation I have as far as customer service. They work fast and efficiently making sure that everything comes out to perfection. I've never had a problem here. I believe the owners name is Tracy, 5+ stars for her for always being such a delight! Thank you Clearwater Bagel for a great experience, all the time :) read more

Came here for the first time with my boyfriend because he loves this place and I was sad that they ran out of Jalapeño Bagels so quickly and didn't even inform me that they'll eventually be making more or offered to wait. Also, I wish they didn't use powder for their drinks and actually made the teas for it. Overall this place seemed pretty popular and my bagel was good. read more

Clearwater Bagel - vanilla chai iced - Bagels Near Me - Walnut, California

We went to this place unexpectedly and it was really good. Everything tasted fresh and the man making the sandwiches was friendly. Place was empty when we got there, but it could have been because it was early. By the time we left, there were other customers. Only thing was, was that the lettuce was a but too watery and dripped while taking a bite. They also have smoothies, coffees, open face bagel pizzas, sandwiches, among a few other yummies. read more

Terrible service the a fake smile. They open at 8 and still show up 20 min late. I stopped by for the first time to get a dozen bagels for my class. They can't do 12 without advance notice. Clowns. If this place was located anywhere else it would be guaranteed to fail. read more

Clearwater Bagel - Egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on onion bagel (left) and Americana breakfast sandwich on everything bagel (right). - Bagels Near Me - Walnut, California

Was very disappointed with service. Have been coming here for years. Went in to purchase just 2 bagels, ended up spending almost $11.00 dollars for those bagels. When questioning why, was told they only sell them with cream cheese. That to get loose bagels they must be preordered. Was told because there are only two people working there that they cannot sell loose bagels. This is unheard of! Spending an extra almost $3.00 dollars for a little thing of cream cheese. I have never seen this before. Will never come back here again! read more

First time here, in the neighborhood for Soccer down the street. Great customer service and tasty bagels

It's been many years since I visited Clearwater Bagel. I'm so glad I stopped back in. I ordered the Club Bagel . Everything about this bagel sandwich was amazing. When you bite into this bagel you feel the crunch of the bagel and the fresh softness of the inside. It was perfect. All sorts of flavors and textures were happening. You can taste the quality it , most important to me is the love that went into making it. If you have NEVER taste the love put into a food , you had better get yourself to Clearwater for a quality bagel sandwich made with quality ingredients and love. Not to mention the owner I spoke to. You can tell they aim to please . I will be retuning again and again . read more

The owner is so polite.And takes pride in his work . Love it Took my husband there and he always dreams about the breakfast sandwich o

I am saddened to have to update my review for my favorite bagel shop ever. =( There has been a change in management and the quality is not the same. The previous owner was such a great guy, even though he was all over the place sometimes. lol But the bagels were consistently good. Now, the bagels are thinner, not as soft (the top half of my onion bagel was so hard to chew), and they put much less cream cheese. I can deal with the small amount of cream cheese, but I miss those perfectly soft & round bagels. They were thick and delicious. Now they are thin and subpar. It is soooooooooooo disappointing. I hope they improve on the quality, because the new owners are actually nice people as well. read more

Their bagels are so good! There's always people ordering multiple bagels togo and they have a large variety of flavors. Their coffee (iced caramel coffee) is great too ( though a tad too sweet for me). Their iced mocha (not pictured) is very chocolate-y. You should definitely call ahead to make sure they have the bagel you want. The jalapeño cheese bagel is really good, but we didn't really like the garlic bagel. We def want to come back to try the other bagels some other time! read more

Clearwater Bagel - God Father Bagel Sandwich Pizza Bagel Caramel Cofee - Bagels Near Me - Walnut, California

Hands down best bagels around! Everything is fresh, quality food crispy bagel on outside and soft on the inside, and service. I haven't been her since they remodeled, and it's a vast improvement visually. They have made improvements and it shows with new seating area. A" rating shows in the pride and helpfulness of the staff. Very accommodating and lady who took my order directed me to a high top table on the other side to enjoy my breakfast. This is an outstanding establishment, you can tell they care about the customer. I don't mind if they raise there prices, I'll pay for quality. I can tell the difference, it's super clean. I remember coming last year and the customer service was lackluster and bland, decor and cleanliness was whatev's. Now, quality is 5 star, Reasonable prices too!!! Will definitely come back again. read more

I have to agree their bagels are delicious! It's soft on the inside and made hot and toasty on the outside. Coupled with cream cheese or savory egg, bacon, ham, etc....it is mouth watering! I love their bagel flavors such as rosemary oil, cinnamon sugar, jalapeños, sun dry tomatoes! However the service here is awkward and less than satisfying. The guy that works here or possibly the owner really wants to get rid of you. He quickly ask what you want, delivers it and gives you a sense he wants you to leave asap! So weird! I tried to ask for something decaf and he literally sounded pissed off. Trying to enjoy breakfast here is not ideal. I recommend take out (ready to eat or cold)! read more

Hard to find good bagels so when I rolled into this place looking for a jalapeño cheese bagel I didn't regret it. One of the better jalapeño cheese bagels around especially when you add veggie cream cheese. My son gets the breakfast combo that comes with OJ, egg and sausage on a bagel of your choice. It has become a weekly go to. read more

The hardest part of moving out of the area is not being able to get my daily bagel. I get the cheese and jalapeño bagel with their homemade jalapeño cream cheese on a veggie sandwhich. It's absolutely to die for and something I crave all the time! Any time that I'm back in the area it's the first place I want to go! THESE ARE THE BEST BAGELS HANDSDOWN!!!! Made fresh daily by the nicest couple. Love you guys!!!! Missing your bagels all the time! I CANNOT RECOMMEND THEM ENOUGH!!!! read more

I'm from New York and in my opinion Bagels in NY are not like anything else, they are great and it may be the water they use but I am VERY particular and can judge a good bagel. After trying numerous bagel shops all over Southern California, Clearwater Bagel in Walnut, CA, is AMAZING! Blows away any other Bagel place I know of on the West Coast. They put SO MUCH LOVE into their bagels... you can taste it, see it, and smell it. My wife even likes them more than New York Bagels, I think Clearwater Bagel is actually on a whole other level. The service is outstanding! For a small business, the owners & employees go out of their way to accommodate customers' needs. Anyone that leaves a negative review of Clearwater Bagel doesn't know the difference between a good fresh baked daily Bagel and a Thomas English muffin... or they are just toxic people. I would pay above and beyond to get Bagels at this quality. So fresh, hot, made fresh everyday with the same amount of love and passion in every single Bagel & batch! You will be pleased. TRUST ME. (I'm a New York native) read more

SO GOOD!!! I was in the area for an appointment and was starving when I left. I was in the mood for a bagel breakfast sandwich and this place was first on the list. So I figured I'd give it a try. I went simple with an egg and cheese on a onion bagel. It was delicious!!! The woman who made it apologized because she put too much cheese. You never need to apologize for extra cheese...EVER!!! We always order bagels for Christmas breakfast and I'd be willing to drive the 15 miles to this place for their bagels. It'd be so worth it. read more

Came here on a random school day on my way to get some hw done. Needed a bite to eat. Drove into the plaza and just saw the sign outside that said bagels and I came in. The person helping me was very helpful. I ordered a cranberry sandwich and he suggested I try that with a cranberry bagel. He took my order, made my bagel and walked over to my table and served it to me. I enjoyed it a lot. It was a cranberry bagel with cream cheese, cranberry, spinach, onion, turkey, and some sort of oil or dressing on the spinach. It was very tasty. I like the vibe of this place. There were only 2 ppl working here. They might be the owners. It's very cozy and decor is cute. Good place to get good food and even study. I like supporting small biz like this so wanted to leave a review. read more

RUDE CASHIER!!! Don't even bother asking for extra cream cheese. You're really paying for cream cheese with a side of bagel. Sheesh

Bagels are delicious so are their drinks! Friendly and professional I highly recommend it!

I absolutely 100% believe this place to have the best bagels I've ever tried. They are always fresh, pretty big and just delicious. I don't know how the owner does it (several times he has been the only one at the store) but he just does, he prepares orders and attends to customers super well and is always helpful and just plain nice. So glad I did some research before coming across this gem. It's a must try and I love coming here, has a great ambience too if u want to just relax and enjoy your bagel right then and there. I'll be back soon! Sorry. After visiting again on several occasions under new ownership. I have to say I'm saddened that great bagels are no more. Quality has dropped and just isn't the same. That said. Service was ok. Renovations were nice. read more

We had our survial reunion here and boy do they make great Bagels. Very friendly, attentive and accomodating owner gave us enough chairs and the a big jug coffee and chopped apple just for us to seat outside. Will come back for their breakfast. read more

Best bagel shop! My husband and son try to come every Thursday morning because not only do they love the bagels, but the owners make you feel right at home. The owners are the most wonderful people! We just love coming here. They have a variety of bagels with our favorites consisting of: honey, Hawaiian, chocolate chip, blueberry and the everything bagel. I really enjoy their bagel sandwiches with the veggie spread. They have both open-faced and bagel sandwiches. I also love that they have added smoothies to their menu. Definitely a great breakfast shop. I think this is a great establishment in the Walnut community. Not only do we support this family-owned place, but we highly recommend it! read more

I truly don't understand the hate reviews on this place. I think people forget that this is a SMALL business. Small business put their heart and soul into making authentic quality food and that were are still in the middle of a damn pandemic?? like small businesses are really impacted by covid... so they obviously can't provide what big corporations can. if you don't like it why leave a rude ass review when you could just go to Panera down the street. ANYWAYS, the food here is always amazing, service is great, and they take care of their customers exceptionally. Yes, there is a wait at times but again ITS A SMALL BUSINESS... if you've been inside before you can see how small the set up is, that only a few people can work at a time. They are always nice and polite even when they get extremely rude customers. i've seen it happen. support this business, the food is great and they're better than panera. all time favorite bagel spot. read more

I have been coming to this establishment for the past 2 years and I have never met such amazing, beautiful kind hearted individuals in the mom and pop industry. They are hard workers and it completely shows in their delicious bagels. I will say they are the best I've ever had. I would 100% recommend to stop by if you're in the walnut area or just simply looking for a bagel. read more

Like others, I've been coming here for over 10 years. Andy, the previous owner, was awesome. I've come in a few times since he sold the place, wanting to give the new owner a chance. Bagels started off the same as when Andy was making them, but I went in today, not the same. And, the cream cheese that was put on was.....minimal. Now, all of that being said, these bagels are still leaps and bounds better than you get at a grocery store BUT I wish they would have stuck to the tried and true rather than changing what clearly was working before. Also, please put more cream cheese on the bagels. It's not butter read more

Delicious bagels! Amazing service. I've been looking for a good Bagel & Lox and this place has the absolute best. It's my new favorite bagel place! read more

Bagels taste great! Service is a bit awkward though. You cant order more than a dozen bagels because they said, "we have to save bagels for the rest of the other customers through out the day. You have to call 1 hour in advanced to place a big order" So I'm thinking like, huh?? Its 8am, you just opened. You specialize in selling just bagels!! How can 2 dozens set you back for the day?? I was so confused. I replied, " I've been here many times before and never had this issue. Apparently there are new owners to the bagel shop. Makes sense as to why their baskets were empty when I walked in, unlike before, where they use to have huge selection of bagels to choose from. So in the end, I left with just one dozen bagels. So disappointed. read more

Ended up right by this place the other morning and decided to try their bagels. I love cranberry's bagels and they're so hard to find. Glad I stopped here. Will definitely be back to try their sandwiches. read more

The service is high quality the guy working here aims to please. The prices are excellent $4.95 for a combo. Choice of bagel with egg cheese and either ham bacon or sausage. Then there is an array of coffee flavors. It's not spacious but it is really good food. There's outdoor dining Alfresco happy trails to you read more

Tasty bagels, we tried the everything and cinnamon raisin bagels and they were delicious!

I was disappointed when the owner notified me that as of Nov 1, 2022, they would no longer be accepting walk-in orders and that I would have to place an order the day before regardless whether it's one, two, three or four bagels. I understand placing a preorder for large orders as this is a family-owned business and it's harder when businesses nowadays are short staffed, but sometimes my husband and I decide to have bagels in the morning for breakfast. I'm no longer supporting this business and will get bagels elsewhere. That's not how you do customer service. read more

just go get your bagel fix here. just do it. you won't regret it. i'm addicted to their jalapeño cheddar bagels and i'd go there every day if i could. word of advice, phone order is your best friend. you can phone order whatever you want, instead of getting a sad surprise when your favorite bagel is sold out. trust me. this has happened to me more times than i care to count. the owners are so friendly and service is fast. they also take health precautions seriously. for example, after you pay, they'll give you a hand sanitizer wipe and not to mention, they're always masked and gloved. p.s. try their cream cheese--it's homemade and delicious read more
