We went on a Sunday morning around 10:30 ish. And it was packed but the line moved quickly. I…read moreordered a plain bagel with maple bourbon cream cheese and a cold brew coffee. I would suggest in ordering on line for pick up to avoid the waiting. Having said that the person at the register was friendly and efficient. You can see them prepping the orders behind the counter. The bagel was good&so was the cream cheese spread. As well as the cold brew. There's plenty of seating inside and the tables that weren't occupied were clean. Seating is available outside as well you'll find a couple of tables which is where we decided to sit.

When I say that this sandwich hit the spot I truly mean that ! The pimento cheese spread is so creamy and decadent , and the spicy pickles truly made this sandwich a hit.

I'm glad Lexington has Pearl's Pizza!

Giving this place 5 stars because of how amazing the veggie bagel is. I seriously had this maybe…read moretwo times a week for my last two months of my freshman year. I personally like garlic cream cheese and I add avocado and cucumber for a small extra fee and it's so worth it. I've introduced a good amount of people to this place, I love how unique and homey it feels in a way. Although, I will say I am not a fan of their coffee I've tried around 5 different coffees from here and some are better than others. They do offer other drink options so no big deal to me! I've only ever had one guy be slightly rude to me while ordering but that's not stopping me from the bagel lol.

To us as we walked across the street to Dudley's . We then walked back over, discovered she'd been cleaning up the outdoor seating for 3rd street stuff! What an amazing and super cool place! The artwork on the walls is colorful and expressive! The egg and cheese in everything bagels were divine, and the Secretariat latte ( what else would I order in Lexington???) was delicious - a combo of coffee, cinnamon, maple syrup, and a splash of vanilla The staff was lovely, the place very comfortable and colorful, food and coffee excellent!!! A MUST visit

This is the best breakfast spot in town. Not only insanely high quality breakfast options but the…read morelunch menu is ridiculous too. It's been proven by thousands of scientific studies that a delicious breakfast improves your concentration, memory, circulation, and overall mood. Eating at Great Bagel will do that and more since they use incredible ingredients and make everything the right way. Pro tip: surprise your family or even just yourself with breakfast from Great Bagel some time. I bet if LL Cool J came to town, he would do the same.

This place is awful just waited 35 minutes for a buttered bagel and it never came out... they do a horrible job of triaging orders so if someone orders 47 breakfast sandwiches right in front of you you basically wait for those to be done before they can cut a bagel butter it and hand it to you... if you're interested in starting a business start a bagel shop in Lexington... There's no competition

Love a good Old European style bakery and I think this is as close as we get in Lexington! I…read moreordered a variety of loaves and each was excellent. They bakery staff were kind to offer advice and to offer to slice and/or pack up each loaf separately. The options rotate so I would call if you are looking for a particular item that is not in their regular plan. The pastry selection looked amazing but I would have loved a few more non-meat options since the other breakfast items looked amazing. The cookies are all worth a try - particularly the sorghum.

They were nearly sold out, but the staff went above and beyond to make us a unique treat. They took their classic glazed donuts, dipped them in chocolate, and added crunchy peanuts on top. The result? The most airy, fluffy donuts we've ever had! Perfect balance of sweetness and texture, and the extra touch made it feel extra special. The ambiance is very causal laid back atmosphere. Highly recommend stopping by early to get a taste of their delicious creations!

I just loved how he was so quick to jump in and tell us everything we needed to know while the others took our order and made the drinks. So efficient and a great way to showcase the menu! Inside was cozy and a great spot to set up to work. They had plenty of outlets near tables to plug in your laptop. Convenient location! Also have to note the matcha is not pre-sweetened which I prefer. I don't like syrups or sweetener in my matcha and too often coffee shops will use a pre sweetened drink mix. I would definitely be back when in the area again!

Which was really good by the way and my friend said her coffee was really good as well. They have a variety of snacks as well as bagels that are flown in from Queens, NY(which is where I'm born and raised). I did ask the girl at the counter and she told me she thought they were from Queens. She did confirm with someone named Nate. This is where it kind of goes sideways for me he was very dismissive about it when I told him I was born and raised in Queens. Both girls at the counter on the other hand were super friendly and helpful. Would I go back again? I would because I'm all for supporting small businesses especially when their coffee is that good. Would I care to speak with Nate again? Absolutely not.
