We were out of town for my son's football game and wanted something better than greasy fast food--a good local, mom-and-pop spot. We chose Clearwater Bagel based on their great reviews, and it did not disappoint. Even though there were only two people working and they were very busy, the staff was gracious and got our order out quickly. We ordered (2) club sandwiches, (2) Americanas, and (1) cinnamon sugar bagel. Everything was fresh and delicious, and my whole family left happy and full. A tip: get there early if you want the best selection. By the time we arrived at noon, they were already out of some bagels. Despite that, we loved what we had and would definitely return to try their breakfast sandwiches and smoothies, which seemed to be very popular with other guests. Highly recommend this spot for great food, friendly service, and a true local vibe. read more

Amazing classic lox bagel!! love my visit at the place. Staff busy but so kind and friendly

I've tried there couple of times and it's a cute cozy place with a lot of bagel flavors to choose from. Service is really nice too. The only thing I have to complain is that they don't usually put that much cream cheese on there. I wish they add more. read more

If you think you can just buy Costco bagels and get the same quality you're WRONG Came a lot in high school and it's as good as I remember Small family owned establishment that, friendly fast service, no indoor seating at the moment (but there's tables outside and a Starbucks next door!$ I've never had a miss here, no complaints, egg white sandwich was amazing, jalapeño bagel amazing, bagels are fresh, everything is great. Favorite bagels are jalapeño cheese, garlic, and onion bagels. They also have sweet ones. Cream cheese also good (They have abnormal opening hrs, closing at noon and on Monday/Tuesday, support them so they can stay open longer !!) read more

fantastic and extremely fresh bagels made daily. This is not like Einstein bagels or other places they use fresh ingredients. You can taste the difference! Family owned and you can tell that makes a difference. the menu's huge! love it! read more

This is a small little bagel spot that offers a variety of bagel options and bagel sandwiches. I got there around 10 am and it wasn't busy. There is no where to sit inside to dine-in so it's more of a grab-and-go spot. I ordered a lox bagel and the garden bagel sandwich. For $13.50 a sandwich, I was pretty disappointed to see how small it was when our order came out. The bagel was barely the size of my palm. I know New York style bagels are supposed to be more chewy but mine tasted doughy and a bit stale. The lox bagel was good but the garden bagel sandwich didn't have much flavor and tasted like bread and lettuce. Overall, I wasn't too impressed with their bagel sandwiches and it's pricey for what you get. Parking right in front of the establishment can be tight but there is plenty of parking in the plaza. read more

I've been meaning to stop by and tried it for the first time today! I ordered the egg and cheese and bacon bagel (Spinach Parmesan) and my husband ordered the egg and cheese on bagel (Garlic). Both were delicious and well made. The egg was especially fluffy and they didn't overdo the cheese. Mine had little bits of bacon inside the egg so nothing fell apart. The spinach Parmesan bagel was fluffy and toasted but couldn't taste much of either. The garlic bagel on the other hand was crusted with garlic and full of flavor. The cashier was very nice and we got our food surprisingly quickly. I like how they have the available bagels up at the register. They have a huge menu and if it wasn't breakfast I would definitely try some of their bagel sandwiches. The bagel shop itself is almost like a stand and the seating is outside but it was clean and it was nice to sit out in the open air. You order towards the seating area and pick up at the window on the walkway. Overall pretty good for the price (~$17) but could use a little salt and pepper seasoning or wish they had hot sauce. read more

The bagels are really good but the hours are inconsistent. Stumbled across this place with my boyfriend and I can see why he swears by it! Great food and nice people. read more

First . The bagels of course ! Cozy little shop with great choices of sandwich and every type of bagels you can think of!! The service was attentive , the owner and staff try to minimize your wait time, text or call ahead for loose bagel orders, you will get hooked! read more

The bagels here are so good but it seems a lot smaller now and more expensive. I ordered the garden bagel on a jalapeño bagel and although the bagel itself was good, I feel like the toppings itself doesn't warrant the $10 price tag. I'll probably just order the bagels themselves next time and build my own sandwich. read more

Yummy bagels and great owners! Very nice staff, always gives my dog whip cream when I bring him with me.

Great tasty bagels! Fast & friendly service, too. There are outdoor & small indoor seating. Mon & Tues closed, otherwise they open from 8AM-1:30PM. I like Everything bagel but they seem to run out around noon. If you're the business owner & reading this, please make more Everything bagels. read more

Small place in large shopping center. Has been here for years. Last time I came here was in 1995-1996. Still yummy. Slightly long line but due to customers taking long to order. There are a lot of good options and the best ones run out early. The breakfast bagels were delish. The spicy Dijon mustard was a little much for me but I'd order with less or none next time. But bagel was perfectly made. Ingredients fresh. The cinnamon sugar and coconut bagels were delicious because they're sugar. Staff was super friendly and patient with folks. Nice seating around outside to wait and/or eat. Would come again. read more

All the bagels are good, but the Jalapeño bagel is my daughter's favorite! Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and the flavor is perfect - not super spicy. Was easy to place an order and pay, the shop owners are so kind and professional. Best bagel shop around. read more

Seems very busy, they still have the Covid restrictions in place, you can't come inside to pick bagels or eat, sorta a bummer. Today is 7-9-23. Nice lady running register and helping cook. Great tasting everything bagel and butter but Beverly Hills prices. Please see photo. Exceptionally good fresh brewed, tropical ice tea! $8.00 pizza bagel was garbage that I threw into the trash. It was microwaved mush that started to harden as it cooled. I did not let this affect my rating though, because it is a bagel place and the bagels are the focus. Just a warning to prospective pizza bagel buyers. The only real competition for this place is all the way over in La Verne. So we need it. read more

Really good breakfast bagel that I got here. Nice customer service and very friendly workers. We were given samples to try some of their jalapeño cream cheese and our order was ready very fast. Way better than Einstein Bagels. read more

There isn't much complicated about a bagel. I normally go to a place in Upland near our home but they are closed on Sunday. After seeing the reviews we decided it was worth visiting here. My son had a plan bagel with butter. To make this short and avoid a rant. It was well under toasted and had GLOBS of cold butter. Easily the worst bagel I've tasted. I'm assuming there aren't other great options in Walnut? This place is not it. read more

Top tier fresh bagels! For over a year this shop has been my go-to for early morning breakfast runs. The crunchy exterior alongside the chewy interior make for the perfect balance - especially when paired with their house-made cream cheese. The owners are kind and welcoming, service is always efficient. My personal favs: cinnamon sugar, everything, honey bagels. read more

A fantastic, small, family owned business :) They owner is super sweet and manages to keep cool when the place is packed with orders. It makes my heart so happy to see that this place is extremely popular with the locals! If you're in the mood for a bagel sandwich or open faced bagel, this is the place to go! I definitely recommend going earlier in the morning (especially on the weekends) if you wanna get the bagel flavor you want! I went around 12pm after my microbio final and they only had 3 flavors left. I opted for the california club on a jalapeño cheese bagel and it was DELICIOUS! Super saucy and tasty. Although it is a bit more pricey, I would say it is definitely worth it. Note: preorder if you have a big order! read more

That was the best breakfast bagel sandwich I have ever eaten! Their bagels are the best I have ever tasted! They are soft, fresh and filled with delicious flavor! I ate the egg and sausage breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel and I never want to go to any other bagel place again! I also ate jalapeño cheese bagel while I was waiting for my breakfast sandwich and it was so delicious! Their scrambled egg was so fluffy, thick, fully cooked but also fully flavorful and even perfectly fit in the bagel. Their bagels are 10 times better than Einstein's and their sandwich is 100 times better than egg bread. I also recommend you try the peach iced tea The bagel shop is clean and the outside patio is a nice place to eat and chat. Only two workers but they hustled and it was busy but they are efficient! read more

There is nothing like a really good bagel and Clearwater has them!! Grocery bagels and Sbux bagels just leave me blah. After some searching, I stumbled upon this place. Even on busy days, they are attentive and mention if there's a wait. My fav is putting some eggs, bacon, cheese on a blueberry or aloha bagel. Yum! And they've been true to their advertised times so I know when to get my fill :) read more

We got the open faced lox, plain with strawberry spread and bacon/egg/cheese bagels for $28.70 (no tip). Why machine is set up to ask????? Pros - my wife liked the lox (nothing to write home about). My two bagels were okay. Nice location with outdoor seating. Cons - none really Overall - 6/10 read more

Love supporting a local business! Was craving bagel sandwiches for breakfast one morning. I decided to get the bacon egg and cheese on a garlic bagel. It was nice and hot and eggs were fluffy! The garlic bagel is VERY garlicky as fresh garlic is pressed into the bagel--so if you are not a garlic fan or don't want too much I suggest getting a different bagel. The bagel itself was a little on the smaller side, however the sandwich is pretty filling! I did eat this at home, so I had hot sauce on hand which helps with the flavor. The cashier was really nice and the service was quick for them making the sandwiches as you order. We came on a rainy Monday and after we ordered a mini rush came by. Overall definitely recommend! I also like their everything bagel with lox cream cheese! Last thing, this is more of a grab and go situation. They have tables outside, but on a cold day, probably wouldn't be able to use it. read more

My favorite bagel place in the area! The bagels are always fresh and soft. I like their egg, cheese, and bacon sandwiches. Less bagel options are available when it gets closer to closing time. Also, the strawberry cream cheese wasn't great, and it kind of tasted like cream cheese with strawberry milk powder mixed in. They don't put too much cream cheese on the bagels, so I would probably ask for extra in the future. read more

WE LOVE THEM!!! Tracy and Deko are absolutely amazing every time! The bagels here do not compare to anywhere else! They are always so kind and always make our day so much better! Service was 10/10! This was one of mine and my partners first date spots and we keep coming back! I had moved across the country and I still come back to visit to get these bagels with my partner, no other bagel place is this good anywhere I've been! we always feel so welcome and the bagels are always so delicious!! They just opened up inside seating and it's so cozy and a very good place to people watch. Tracy and Deko have made such a positive impact in our lives through their bagels, we are always so grateful to see them. We plan one day to have their bagels at our wedding. read more

I ordered a garden bagel with egg during lunch time. The vegetable is fresh and crisp, the bagel was a little bid crust outside but soft and solid in side. I did not order a special flavor thus, it is a fresh bagel but not an impressive bagel. However, I saw other people order the bogogi flavor, OMG, I can feel how delicious it would be! so if you are craving meat or more savory, highly recommend bogogi flavor. I also saw other students or teenagers ordered the cream with toast bagel. They love the bagel. I would say you can find the bagel for your appetite in anytime when this store open! read more

I had the breakfast bagel sandwich and it was so good! Paired it with a Jalapeno Cheese bagel. The sandwich was huge. The service was also great. They have an outdoor patio thats nice. I also had an horchata blended but it was too sweet. Will come again tho! read more

Excellent bagel situation here. Pretty sure it's family owned and operated which makes it even better. We came early on a Saturday morning and already there was a wait. We ordered the following: -classic breakfast bagel sandwich ($5.95): egg, cheese + sausage -classic lox bagel ($9.95): nova salmon, cream cheese, tomatoes, capers, cucumber + sprouts -everything bagel ($1.60) with cream cheese The open faced lox bagel was very good. It was generously lathered with cream cheese. Best of all, you didn't have to fight for each bite which sometimes happens where you find yourself wrangling the lox vs. bagel ratio. The bagel texture was excellent - not too chewy or doughy. It aired on the side of doughy which I prefer. I didn't eat my everything bagel right away and several days later, it was still very good when toasted. It didn't harden like other bagels and still had a nice pull to the dough. I'll definitely work Clearwater into my Saturday morning rotation. read more

I had to stop mid-bagel to review this place. The simplicity but nuance in flavors is impeccable. From the bagel itself to the toppings, the quality is top notch. The bagel has an excellent yield to it when you bite into it. It's not doughy or tough, the flavor is subtle but significantly different than other bagel shops. The cream cheeses which I believe are made in house, are also excellent in flavor and texture. You'll find this small unassuming bagel shop nestled in a shopping center, with a fee outdoor tables to enjoy your bagel here or to go. The food however is remarkable and the antithesis of unassuming. If you told me this bagel hailed from a high end eatery or even a boutique cafe in a high end resort, I wouldn't bat an eye. This stuff is just superior. Staff was helpful in making recommendations and it was prepared impressively fast. The Cucumber Avocado open face bagel is ELITE!!! This place is 11/10, will definitely be returning over and over again. read more

Came for brunch on a Saturday and had a great experience. I feel like there aren't as many bagel options in the SGV and this one hit the spot. I got their lox on an everything bagel and wow!! The everything bagel was divine. It really had everything, it had a bit of a crunch from the topping and a little chew from the bagel. The lox had capers, onions, and cucumber on top along with some sprouts. It paired very well with the everything bagel :) Service was very nice and you can tell it's a nice and cozy small business! We sat down to eat and then gave us a little sample cup of a blended coffee drink that was delicious. My only regret is I don't live closer to here and that didn't buy more bagels to bring home haha Highly recommend if you're craving bagels and are in the Walnut area! read more
