My desert sunrise breakfast sandwich on a plain bagel with bacon and jalapeno spread was really good! Soft but toasty bagel, thick bacon, and a good amount of cream cheese. It was my first time here and I got to see the restaurant during a rush. I decided to wait outside patiently as there's limited space and there's lots of outdoor seating. Much to my surprise my order was ready in less than 10 minutes! The staff stayed calm and worked hard during a rush. My order was accurate. The food was fresh and good quality. I'm looking forward to coming back. read more

Amazing service from Paige. She allowed me time to look over the menu without standing there watching me, which is a plus for me - made me feel like I wasn't being rushed to get me out. When asked for recommendations she was very honest and nice. We ordered a Lox's on garlic bagel, Arroyo on Parmesan, a bagel of day old bagels, and a garden garlic cream cheese spread. Let me tell you a secret....the Arroyo was for my fiancé, I took a bite the minute I opened it to see what it looked like and it was AMAZING! The Garden garlic is absolutely delicious, I bought it for the bag of day old bags but find myself spreading it on my lox's bagel. I absolutely love garlic so this is amazing. Giant chunks of fresh garlic mixed with whipped cream cheese.. chefs kiss. The is small with a few tables but very cute. They have year round outside seating. I told my fiancé that since it's less than a minute from his job we should do our "mini" lunch dates there during the summer and enjoy the outside. Overall 100% recommend this place! read more

Good bagels. They have basic options but what they offer is tasty. I kinda wish they some more smear options to lather up my toasted bagel with instead of plan old cream read more

This is an underrated bagel shop tucked away on a side street near Wells Avenue. They have some patio seating and a small indoor space as well. We came on a Sunday morning and they were very busy! They have a great selection of bagels to chose from, breakfast and lunch options, plus a full coffee menu. They have a fun specialty drink menu in the shop and they allow you to choose any alternative milk option for no extra charge. I went with the Desert Sun breakfast bagel, a classic that is their namesake for a reason! I got it on a cheddar bagel with bacon and added a hashbrown (suggestion written next to this item on their menu). The sandwich was loaded with ingredients, filled me up, and tasted delicious! The bagel was noticeably soft and doughy, a perfect base for a breakfast sandwich. The bagels tasted better than most others I've had in Reno and will definitely make me come back again in the future! read more

This place is fabulous! The inside is small and cute with a desert mining theme, but there is extra seating outdoors. We had a breakfast bagel and a lunch bagel the eggs are fresh cracked daily, the bagels are made fresh in house the bacon was thick and well cooked, plus bonus you can add a hash brown to your sandwich for $1.75 The lunch bagel was so delicious, I added cream cheese and it was very filling, there was a great amount of turkey too. I'm from out of town and would definitely eat here again if I come back and would recommend it to anyone coming to Reno!! Oh also they have fresh made gluten free bagels too! If you're local or traveling through you must stop in and have a breakfast or lunch bagel. read more

Wonderful staff, but mediocre bagels. The food quality was disappointing and tasted like a generic Walmart bagel. If you want a truly life-changing bagel that feels like it's straight from New York, spend your money at Tahoe Bagel instead. read more

It has been YEARS since I have been to Desert Sun... Today I was needing breakfast and a bagel sandwich just really was speaking to me. I forgot how great Desert Sun is that's for sure. The latte I had was fantastic and the Sonoran on Jalapeño Cheddar REALLY HIT THE SPOT. Spicy, protein packed, chewy, awesome. The inside of this place is super unique, clearly plays on it's Nevada heritage, and the outside seating is nice if the weather isn't trying to freeze you to death... I'll be coming back, sorry I forgot about you Desert Sun... read more

Decided to check out this bagel spot today. A bit of a let-down. Pluses: plentiful on-street parking, very friendly and prompt service (despite a constant stream of delivery pick-ups), and tasty chai (on the sweeter side). Cons: I can't really say that I enjoyed my Egg N Cheese on sesame bagel. While the egg was cooked well, the thin American cheese did nothing to enhance the either somewhat dry or somewhat stale bagel. The menu suggests a lot of "pro tip" addons (with an upcharge) to the sandwiches. Maybe they should make those addons part of the base sandwich so you get a better experience ordering a standard sandwich. My husband's blueberry bagel tasted like a plain wheat bagel (he said). I expected more from a place that makes their own bagels. Can't compare to Lillo Eatery's Off Center bagels, for example. Inside decor was cute but dark and cramped. Outdoor seating was plentiful on a weekday morning, but one chair was missing slats, and all the chains and locks brought down the vibe a bit. All in all, pretty average. read more

I will start off by saying that I like my chai sweet and this spot has currently the best chai I have ever tried. I'm just sad that there is not one locally in my small ca town. The chai latte large came with a lot! It was sweet and surprisingly, very good. Now the bagel was the highlight of the meal. I opted to get it on a cheddar bagel and it was so good. I did take off the tomato, but that was just because I was going to be eating this in the car and I didn't want to make a big mess. The service here was absolutely great. The girls were very nice and friendly. It does take a little longer, but the food is definitely worth it. They definitely had tables outside where I saw some people sitting but inside there aren't as many tables. However, the inside was cool because they had a bunch of crystals everywhere and I thought that was pretty dope, considering most coffee shops kind of have their own style and this one was unique. Anyways, I came here once last year and I have made it a thing to come here every time I am in Reno since it does not disappoint. 10/10 read more

What a delicious bagel sandwitch, I had the Desert Sage garlic bagel with jalapeno cream cheese! This bagel was packed with cold turkey nice hot crispy bacon and a avacado mash that made it so smooth! The hot and cold balance was perfect in the sandwich!

This used to be my favorite bagel sandwich spot pre pandemic. I chose to still go here when it became Desert Sun and it seemed to pretty much be the same. I haven't visited in a while, but today the service was my least favorite part. I called to order ahead and was put on hold for over 7 minutes. When I arrived, I saw the cashier do the same thing to someone else on the phone. It also took a little while to actually get my food even though I was first in line. The sandwich was good, but I don't recommend going here if you're in a hurry before work. read more

We recently checked out the new Desert Sun Bagels location in the Smithridge shopping center, tucked behind Chuck E. Cheese. It's not a fancy setup, but they advertise fresh-baked bagels daily, and we were curious to see how it compared to their original spot. We arrived around 9 a.m., and they had about nine different types of bagels available: Everything, Sesame, Garlic, Jalapeño Cheddar, Plain, Cheddar, Salt, and Poppy Seed. A solid variety for a weekday morning. It took a little while before someone came to the counter to take our order, but we eventually placed an order for a sesame and a salt bagel--both to go. I asked for mine toasted with their spinach artichoke cream cheese, but when I was told it wasn't available, I quickly opted for the pesto. (Admittedly, I thought it was pesto-flavored cream cheese--my mistake.) Unfortunately, when we got home, the experience fell a bit flat. My husband toasted his bagel with no issues, but the salt on top had huge crystals, which didn't taste good. When I opened mine, it was burnt around the edges and completely dried out, even with the pesto spread. Definitely disappointing. Neither one of us was impressed, and we won't be going back anytime soon. read more

Desert Sun Bagel - Desert Dun sandwich on jalapeño cheese bagel. Added jalapeño cream cheese. Not spicy - Sandwiches Near Me - Reno, Nevada

We stopped here to pick up breakfast.  It was pretty chaotic and hectic.  Maybe it's just like this on Saturday mornings.  The poor girl who was taking orders started to make coffees and asked another worker to take orders. She told him to tell customers that it would be a 20-minute wait.  After I placed my order, I had full view of their kitchen, and it was a bit crazy.  Everything seem unorganized.  My husband ordered the Desert Sunrise with sausage and an everything bagel.  I ordered an egg N cheese with a jalapeno and cheese bagel.  Our bagel sandwiches were absolutely delicious.  If I lived nearby, I'm sure I'd pick up breakfast often. read more

New favorite bagel spot in town! We came here one day when we found out that they were partnering with local parks to give back (from rounding up your purchase). So glad we did because their bagels and bagel sandwiches are delicious. Several of the bagel sandwiches use local meats and if meat isn't your thing, they've also got vegetarian options. The bagel itself has great taste and perfect texture. They've got a bunch of different flavors so if you want your main bagel to be savory then end with a sweet dessert like one, you can. They even have muffins here. We each ordered something different and before I could even take a picture of it all, we had devoured it. The staff was also friendly and service was quick. We didn't have to wait too long for our order. Can't wait to go back and try everything else on their menu! read more

Desert Sun Bagel - Bagel sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I just don't understand how this place could partner up with a delivery service that take 45 MINUTES!!!! To deliver The food here is good, but certainly not worth it if they are irresponsible enough to entrust their orders with a partner who is going to let the food go stale and cold. Then when I call to try and communicate this they simply say they have no control. Completely passing the buck and responsibility. I mean I'm never going to waste my money here again. I can get a bagel sandwich at plenty of other spots that actually care and will actually stand up to the delivery services they use instead of just acting oblivious. So if you to order something from here, don't. It's going to be an experience that blows Reply to Owner's comment: I talked to your manager, she was well aware of how I felt and told me to "Raise Hell" did she think I wouldn't make this known? Next time, just tell me you'll contact UberEats and complain with me. Then I wouldn't be so upset with you as well. Because this is your fault if you do nothing except pass the buck like you just did. FYI: the delivery person never showed up. Got a refund. Complete fail trying to eat here. Glad this place won't be getting my money or support and how much do you want to bet when I do order from somewhere else they won't take an hour to deliver? read more

This was a big bagel sandwich! Some care definitely goes into the sandwiches. The yolk was a bit runny which I think is perfect for a sandwich like this and it was seasoned beautifully. This was a pepper forward sandwich so if you don't like pepper I would let them know and I'm sure they can omit it. Fresh fluffy bagel with a good chew to it. I will definitely come back! read more

This place is absolutely amazing! We came in on a Sunday morning. It was so busy, which is a great thing. The cashier was not bothered by the amount of people shooting questions at her. She was so polite and just keep working as nothing was going on. I don't know her name, but she was GREAT. She is a great employee Shane definitely give her a raise. The coffee is great from a local brewer. The barista made me an iced Carmel latte which was so yummy. The ambiance was quaint and beautiful. They had lovely canvas photos. They also had an employee pet board which I loved so much. read more

Desert Sun bagel scores with desert sunrise bagel (like a McMuffin with choice of meat) and the oasis bagel (with meat or not, but definitely egg, spinach, red onion and tomato). The Oasis bagel wins with its light taste of spinach and red onion with the eggs and cheese (add bacon please). Yum to Desert Bagel, near 4th Street and Valley. Will be back for more. Lots of variety on the bagel choices too. Service is great and ambience is just right for early morning take out or eat right outside at sidewalk tables. read more

Desert Sun Bagel - Oasis and #1 Desert Sunrise with hash brown (partial). - Sandwiches Near Me - Reno, Nevada

It was so good we went two mornings in a row! Our hotel didn't have breakfast so it was super convenient that this AWESOME place was right around the corner. 1. I love breakfast sandwiches but I can't have them often unless I make them myself because I'm dairy and gluten intolerant... SOO it was super awesome that this place had a gluten free bread and 2. I'm a condiment girl - and they had a smattering of condiments to supplement my "CHEESE". I got the #4 the frontier with turkey the first day - and the second day I got the same #4 with pastrami - it was even better... the saltiness of the pastrami made it with the avocado! The husband got #8 tumbleweed the first day of I think bacon cheese bagel && the second day he got the #7Mirage on a blueberry bagel... he loved them! All in all they were quick fast && easy &&& delish! 5/5 I've given in a while! read more

I LOVE DESERT SUN BAGELS!!! In my opinion, they have the best bagel sandwiches in Reno. I always get the Desert Sunrise (a classic bacon OR sausage, egg and cheddar cheese). I get it on a cheddar bagel and add garden garlic cream cheese and an extra egg. The garden garlic cream cheese is TO DIE FOR! It's herby and garlicky, and desert sun is verryyy generous with the cream cheese. I am unable to add a photo because it's borderline indecent. And extra egg is great to beef up to sandwich and ad extra protein. Also, props to Desert Sun because they use real, fresh cracked eggs AND real thick(ish)-cut bacon. None of those flimsy partially cooked bacon slices here. Desert Sun is a very popular spot, especially on the weekends. You can tell everyone knows what a great spot it is. Sometimes this means waiting a little extra longer, but it's always worth the wait. I've had great success calling in orders to avoid the wait. It's a great shop, small but lively. It seems they are opening a new location at Smithridge Plaza. They definitely deserve a second location and it will hopefully alleviate the wait at the location on Morrill. Please please please check out Desert Sun Bagel! You won't regret it! read more

I've known about this place for the last couple years, but got the opportunity to go there and get one of their breakfast sandwiches. What an amazing experience! The food was top-notch. I had the Sonora with the schmear as they suggested on a cheddar bagel. It was the best breakfast sandwich I've had in a long, long time. Ambiance was fun, cozy, and felt like a very local place. Went to the one off Moran right off of Fourth by the Wells overpass. Highly, highly, highly recommend. Top-notch service, great customer service, food is out of this world. That fried chorizo patty was just crunchy and incredible. Loved the hash browns. Actually had to indulge and get a little pastry while I was there because they just looked that amazing. Great job, keep it up! Looking forward to seeing you guys next week. read more

I know Reno is lacking good bagels and this is probably the only place around. But the staff needs customer service training ASAP! When I got there - one person waiting for an order. I ordered a coffee and everything bagel with cream cheese. It took like 10 minutes for me to get a bagel !? The other guy gets his stuff and leaves and I'm standing there wondering with 4 employees and one customer (me) am I still waiting for my order? When I ask about my order the very Rude and immature cashier gives me an attitude like I'm bothering her. She proceeds to go to the back and whisper something to the her coworker in back there and they're looking at me like I'm crazy cause I asked for a bagel that should've took maybe two minutes to put together ......smh ! read more
