    Great bagels. Large variety and friendly service. Come early because favorites go fast. Fun city vibe going on inside and very comfortable. Location is central and fantastic parking. It's a new go to! Make it next on your list too.

    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.

    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...

    10/10 this place can clap my cheeks on the daily because I will go to war for the smears. Cheap and delicious. Just how i like my women.

    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.

    Great local spot for a new york style bagel! It's a tiny spot but it has plenty of space both inside and outside.

    Chai Latte

    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

    I had a desert sunrise bagel on jalapeño and cheddar. It was pretty tasty. And I also had a chai latte with a shot of espresso that I had zero complaints about. I went in on a random Thursday morning and got served pretty quickly.

    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! The lettuce and Tomato were cold and crisp. Very clean location and no wait. The service was fast and they were more then happy to suggest some different cream cheese that would be good. 100% recomend

    To me this is the only bagel restaurant in town! Their bagels are delicious. My favorite is the jalapeno cheddar with jalapeno cream cheese-so good! Service is always great here and bagels always fresh. recommend!

    Im giving 4 stars for the customer service alone. The ladies working were kind and did a good job and helping me. The bagels are decent. The garlic parm is mostly garlic, but they are better than most store bought. Its a bright shiney ambiance.

    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.

    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.

    This seems to be a popular destination for locals and moms with babies. I noticed it was super kid…read morefriendly space- I saw a lot of moms with toddlers meeting up with friends having a good time. This place has a lot of cheese options which I love and a lot of hot sauce and options at the counter which makes things even better. My onion bagel was just okay kind of hard and dry, but my friend got the jalapeño cheese one that was a lot better with pepper jack that was pretty bomb. My eggs were seasoned and filling, cheese melted and bagel sandwich steaming hot which I appreciated. It is a great stop for a bfst sandwich if you don't have time to wait long or have a long drive like me. I think I love most how lovely the bathroom smells- lemongrass and it was very clean which is always a major plus. There is a lot for parking as well. I think if I returned I would def go with that delicious pepper jack and try a diff bagel. They also have smoked turkey meat so that brought the bagels up to a new level. And they have free WiFi. So a good spot to hang out and do work or apparently bring your kids too haha

I was in Reno yesterday for a Reno Aces Game (they beat Tacoma 13-8), and had time to stop at the Midtown Truckee Bagel Company. From there, it was a short drive to Greater Nevada field. +/- - Counter service was slowed down by the counter person taking phone orders. - Somewhat limited Bagel selection this late in the day. That was OK as my half dozen selection of sundried tomato, wheat, and combo bagels was a good one. - They were out of regular cream cheese, so I settled for a bit pricy smear of Herb. Positives - Easy access on and off Virginia and good available parking. - Expected casual bagel shop ambience, including display and sandwich making behind the counter. - Bagels are baked, no steamed. - Bagels were put in plastic bag (with tie) which in my opinion preserves freshness vs. a paper bag. - My toasted breakfast bagel (next day) was the right amount of heft, chewiness, and flavor. I almost could have eaten it without the cream cheese, but that smear just added to its goodness.
