Does Bialy's Bagels make the BEST bagels in all of Cleveland?…read more YES!!! Without a doubt! #BestbagelsinCleveland I moved to Cleveland in late 2019, right by Bialy's and would often walk over every Sunday to pick up my sister and I a cinnamon crunch bagel before they sold out for the day. We loved these large bagels, generously topped with crunchy cinnamon sugar as sweet Sunday brunch treats. I moved in 2021 and am no longer close to the store (and also didn't eat bread for 2 years) but I went back last Sunday to recreate some of the pre-pandemic magic I remember. Bialy's has since expanded to also be a sandwich shop but I just got two bagels, one rosemary and one cranberry cinnamon. They were both hot and fresh and under $2 each. I've been to other bagel places since but nothing compares to Bialy's! I also saw one of the co-owners while I was there and felt like I was in the presence of a celebrity!

Bialy's Bagels is a small, no frills, budget friendly bagel shop. It's a pick up location only, no…read moretables/table-side service available. You'll find interesting bagel flavors here (such as egg, cinnamon cranberry, and onion) and merch (tees, hoodies, Mish Mosh seasoning, greeting cards, and stickers). My order: - Asiago Bagel - Toasted with Smokie Salmon Schmear ($5) - Bagel was over toasted, dry, and too salty. Schmear was more like lightly whipped cream cheese, not flavorful. Barely there salmon is the best way to describe it. - Cinnamon Cranberry Bagel with Brown Sugar Cinnamon Schmear ($5) - Bagel tasted like plain bagel. Schmear very light on flavor. - Mish Mosh Bagel ($2) - Plain, not toasted. It's their version of everything bagel. I ordered this bagel because I overheard it being a popular choice while waiting for my order. It's way too salty, and I love salt. It didn't taste freshly made this morning and tasted not fully made inside. - Coffee ($2.50 for 2 small coffees): Flavorless and barely warm coffee. The menu is pretty well outlined on multiple signs at checkout. It clearly indicates up charges and premium topics. If you purchase bagels dozen, you'll get one bagel for free. Other options are sammies, bialy wheels, and bialy sticks. Most customers ordered baker dozen during my visit. Service: Service was alright. I felt a lot of pressure to order (especially as the first timer). Other guests were pretty rushed too. Checkout did not make much sense too. If you order a dozen bagels, they'll take your order in line. If you order a single bagel with schmear or sandwiches, you must go to the checkout counter and repeat your entire order. Service was quick, my order was up quickly and all customers were addressed in a timely manner. Parking: Parking lots are available in the front and the back of the store. The bagel shop is in a little strip mall area. If you're looking for a wallet-friendly bagel, this is the place to be. If you're looking for bold flavors or more standard bagel experience, it's probably best to venture out. I unfortunately personally didn't enjoy any part of my meal but appreciated the low prices.

I was surprised that the tomato's, capers, and onions were add-ons instead of just coming with the sandwich. They had a good variety of cream cheese options and I love that they had zatar bagels.

I actually went twice before posting this review just to make sure the first time wasn't a fluke…read more Unfortunately, it wasn't. The bagels just have no flavor. It almost tastes like they completely forgot the salt. Both times the bagel also seemed undercooked--chewy and a little doughy in the middle. Definitely needs to be toasted to make it better, but a good bagel shouldn't need to be toasted just to be enjoyable. Wanted to like this place, especially after giving it a second try, but I just don't get the hype.

I got two bagel sandwiches. Good and straight to the point. Gets the job done. Their schmear selection was also cool.

It's not a place that you would dine in at as there are no seats because it's a pretty small storefront but it was very bright and clean.

I got a nice, large, and salty pretzel bagel with a light swipe cherry cordial cream cheese. The bagel itself was $1.80 but adding the cream cheese made it over $4. I didn't love the fact that the cream cheese was more expensive than the bagel itself. It was good cream cheese but surprisingly not as cherry forward as I expected. I sadly forgot to take pictures but the interior is large and clean with lots of places to sit and eat. I went during the morning bagel rush so I did have to wait in a line, but it went fast. I am glad I got to try the pretzel bagel here and recommend this spot for other bagel lovers in the Cleveland area.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. The moment I walked into JB Bagelry, I noticed how hard…read moreeveryone was working, yet everything flowed so smoothly. It was like watching a well oiled machine in action. The atmosphere instantly felt nostalgic and brought me right back home to the hustle and bustle of New York City What stood out immediately was the staff. Even though they were incredibly busy, every single person was friendly and took the time to greet customers as they walked through the door. That kind of hospitality is becoming rare these days, and it did not go unnoticed. I also had the pleasure of chatting with the owner, who was an absolute delight. As someone who regularly interacts with business owners, I can confidently say this owner is a gem. Genuine, approachable, and incredibly responsive. qualities that are harder and harder to find these days. The bagels themselves are made fresh every day starting at 4:00 a.m., and they're even cut on-site right in front of you when you order them. You can truly taste the difference! During my visit, I tried the Pizza Bagel with pesto cream cheese paired with The Heights. I also had the Cinnamon Toast Crunch with sweet cream cheese and the OG. Every single one was outstanding. And this next part almost pains me to admit as a lifelong New York bagel loyalist... I think I like JB Bagelry's bagels better than any bagel I've had in New York. Yes, I said it. As someone who has spent years insisting that New York has the best bagels in the world, this was not an easy conclusion to come to. But these bagels are simply that good. In fact, they were so good that we came back the very next day!!!!! If you're anywhere near Cleveland, do yourself a favor and go. JB Bagelry isn't just serving great bagels, it's delivering the kind of experience that keeps people coming back.

I was craving bagels and stopped at the nearby Bruegger's Bagels. This location is in Cedar…read moreFairmount neighborhood, cute historical area. It somehow makes the bagel experience more refined. I haven't been to this location for a while and was pleasantly surprised with recent modernization. They now have a more modern queue (that starts at the checkout), new shelf for delivery/to go pick ups (sensibly split between Uber Eats and DoorDash), and renovation of the dining room (with a new NY bagel signage) and ample space. If you haven't stopped in a while, you'll enjoy these changes. Bagels at this bagel shop are just okay. They're fresh and you can see them being made through the little window (the dough at least). But they lack uniqueness and are often very flat/smooshed. They're not bad, just forgettable. I ordered two five cheese bagels with bacon chive cream cheese. They were speedily made and were just okay. One thing I won't order at this location is iced coffee. It is extremely diluted and so gross. I walked over to Starbucks nearby just to get a better cup of coffee. The service tends to be polite but rushed. I wouldn't say it's partially warm or personable. I constantly get the sense that workers are pretty stressed out. The bagel shop contains a few tables and most guests prefer to linger. With ample room now, I can see it being very convenient to dine in. To go orders are very quick here. If you place an order through Bruegger's app it will be ready when you walk in. Some employees will remember your name. If you order in person, prep time is very quick. Parking is available in the little lot attached to the shop. If there is no room, look for street parking. Please read the signs, this area is notorious for parking tickets. I would recommend this location if you're looking for a quick morning carb fix. If you're looking for a more fancy bagel, look elsewhere.
