Stopped by and ordered the Suffolk on a jalapeño bagel along with a latte. The place was pretty busy, but it was easy to locate and had a nice, welcoming atmosphere. The interior is nicely decorated and has a cute, casual vibe that's perfect for grabbing breakfast or coffee. Unfortunately, I wasn't a huge fan of the bagel itself. It was very dense, which made the entire sandwich feel a little too heavy. I personally prefer a bagel that's more airy and fluffy, especially for a breakfast sandwich. The latte was good, and overall, it wasn't a bad experience. I would come back and try something different next time! read more

First time here! The place is really spacious and clean. Staff was really nice, and I got to try a sample of the piña colada matcha. I ordered the chicken sausage with toasted almond and fig cream cheese. The sausage was really good, but there was a lot of cream cheese. Overall, really cute spot with a large menu. Definitely coming back to try more! read more

I finally got around to trying this place out on a random Saturday because I really was craving a bagel with some fixings, and General Muir was too far away. One of my friends also joined in to complete this mission. There was quite the line when I arrived, which is always a good sign! Note: there is very limited seating, so be prepared to have to eat on the go or at one of the tables outside! There were so many delicious sounding options, but I opted for the classic: The Suffolk. This bagel is pretty much your classic bagel and lox without the dill, and it was expertly made! My friend also allowed me to take a bite of The Nassau, and I was pleasantly surprised by how fresh it tasted--it was kind of like an elevated tuna salad! I highly recommend trying out this place if you're craving a delicious bagel! read more

I am not apologizing for being an Emerald City Bagel Hater, I'm so sorry!!!! I love the charm of there EAV location but I didn't like those bagels and I still don't like the new Beltline ones. My first problem ultimately goes to the fact that the new Beltline location has the automat for bagels and it wasn't even working!!!!!! And then, I paid $24 for 2 BEC (bacon, egg and cheese) bagels that were small and extremely mid!! like there was too much bacon and not enough egg and then the bagel was thin and not giving what it needed! This didn't surprise me because I remembered that from their original location but still! The one redeeming item I had was the cinnamon sugar bagel with their seasonal Biscoff cream cheese. While delicious, it did not make up for everything else. read more

This spot has a great location right along the Beltline, super easy to find. We went on a Saturday around 8:30, and it wasn't too busy, which was nice. We ordered two sandwiches, a coffee, and a matcha latte. I was a little shocked when I saw the total, though. For what we got, I think the sandwiches could definitely be priced a bit lower. I usually stick with a bagel and cream cheese, but this time I went for the lox. It was decent, though I prefer it open-faced, and for the price, I probably wouldn't order it again. Overall, it was a decent experience. nice spot, just a little pricey for what you get. read more

This bagel spot is IT. Tucked into a cute little neighborhood in the city of Atlanta. Street parking, to-go only from what I can recall. The bagels were amazing. Cooked to perfection. Lots of variety and they can make all types of sandwiches as well. The staff are dressed so cute, in character to resemble like a 50's style diner. So quaint and cute! If you love bagels, just do it. read more

Emerald City Bagels off the Beltline is the real deal. I went for the blueberry bagel with blueberry cream cheese, and let me tell you... that combo is a power move. Sweet, fresh, and chewy in all the right ways. The vibe on a Saturday morning is unbeatable. People are out jogging, biking, starting their day, and you're just there with a killer bagel in hand thinking, "Yep, this is how you do mornings." The staff is friendly, quick, and keeps things moving even with the line out the door. No inside seating, but the outdoor tables give you front-row seats to the Beltline buzz. If you're in the suburbs like me, it's worth the drive... these bagels actually live up to the hype. read more

Cute grab and go breakfast on the beltline. My bagel was overall good just my personal preference was that it was a lot of cheese that over powered the smoked salmon. Sat outside to people watch those on the beltline and it was nice as well. read more

Tried out this location over the weekend. We came in pretty early on a Saturday, around 8am. It wasn't crowded at that time! But id imagine it gets more crowded later in the morning. We got our food super quickly! I love their toasted almond fig cream cheese! One of my favorite spots in Atlanta and I love this new location! read more

Good bagels, friendly staff, and a store that is reminiscent of the old Jewish appetizing spots in the Lower East Side of New York.

Convenient location but limited options! For a bagel lover and a diary eater, this place is probably perfect. There are a range of bagel options and they open early. BUT when I visited there was only ONE vegan cream cheese option. Perhaps there isn't a large market for it OR not requested often, but I wish they had at least ONE flavored, vegan cream cheese option - not just plain. read more

Came in to grab some breakfast. You can smell the freshly baked bagels from outside!! Upon walking in we were greeted by friendly staff. They don't have any indoor seating but do have a table by the wall where you can stand and eat. I got the blueberry bagel with blueberry cream cheese and it was soooo good. Full of flavor. Soft and delicious. read more

This is a really great bagel spot on the beltline! You walk in to see the freshly baked bagels, and there is a variety of cream cheeses and sandwiches to choose from. Service was a little slow, but there were a lot of orders because it was the weekend. I got a sesame bagel with lox cream cheese, and it was really good! They were really generous with the cream cheese too. I really enjoyed my bagel today and I would come back to try the sandwiches sometime. read more

This 2nd Atlanta location opened in 2024 on the Beltline Trail. This review is based on my first visit to Emerald City Bagels in late January. +. Ambiance is urban, togo only space in the Citizen building between Irwin and Edgewood. Inside is an order counter, room for a line and pickups. Outside are ~ 6 tables on the sidewalk parallel to the Beltline Trail. +. Bagels, smears, bagelwiches and coffees. I tried their everything bagel toasted with garlic & herbs cream cheese and my friend had their poppyseed toasted with butter. I found my bagel too chewy and very dense for NY style. It was tasty especially with a generous portion of cream cheese. Perhaps I'll skip toasting next time. My friend loved their poppy seed bagel with butter. =. Price is high for what it is. ++. Service was cheerful. The line moved fast and our wait was short. =. Parking is limited street and paid lots. I parked on a nearby street and walked. So, their name has nothing to do with Seattle and is derived from the Wizard of Oz. This is a 3.5* rounded up since my buddy loved his bagel. read more

We came here for a late breakfast, early lunch. The location is on the beltline and we were drawn in my the bagel ATM that is facing outward. Everything in the glass display looked kind of old, so we ventured inside. The interior is small, but there are a few tables and a fun interactive element on the payphone back by the clean bathrooms. There is some picnic style shared seating outdoors as well. There was only one party ahead of us in line when we were there and we needed the time even after we were up since there are so many good options on the menu. I ended up getting The Eggy Pop, which is egg salad and pickled onion. I chose the sesame seed bagel and it was delicious. The pickled onion was a nice touch and it was a very filling sandwich. read more

Wow this restaraunt made me miss DMV bagels! The texture and size of the bagel was underwhelming and could've been store bought. Albeit the flavor was still nice. I got whitefish salad on my rosemary salt bagel and that was also very underwhelming and lacked the creamy, richness I expected. Other than a short line and cute storefront, this was nothing to write home about. read more

Good ambience... Clean establishment... Food was good, I ordered bacon, egg and cheese on cinnamon bagel and it was good.. Only thing is that I asked for strawberry jam on it and it wasn't on there.. I went back and asked about it they charged me $2.50 for some jam... Smh terrible... All good... Overall good experience.. Coffee was good.. I like the setup and vibe. read more

Ordered a chicken sausage, egg, and cheese bagel and 2 drinks and my total came to $20. The food prices in Atlanta just continue to get out of hand. 1 bagel sandwich and 2 seltzer waters shouldn't be anywhere near $20. It's wild because I make good money and this is still too much, and I'm getting tired of it. Also I really just wanted egg whites instead of eggs and they couldn't even accommodate that. At this price point that should've been simple to do. Time to start eating a home. read more

I've now been to both of the locations. Both are just not good, these are not good bagels. The cream cheese is good, and ratio of cream cheese to bagel is good. The BEC is also good. The part that is bad is the bagel, which is ironic considering it's a bagel place. They're just void of flavor, they're very thin, I could get a better bagel from the grocery store. It's also $5.50 for a relatively small bagel with cream cheese. read more

These bagels are hard as a rock and they do not taste fresh at all. I remember when they first opened and you could really count on the quality-- now I'd rather go to Kroger and eat a bagel at home. It is also pretty pricey for bagels that taste days old. Will not be back. read more

Always searching for the best bagel. Was told this was a great bagel, I'd call it good but not the best. Then tried Pop Up bagels a few doors down, which was actually a better bagel. Then I tried Brooklyn Deli at Ansley Mall. This is the best bagel in Atlanta in my opinion. Brings back memories of the best bagel in Atlanta in the 90s, Royal Bagel, which closed when family retired and daughter wasn't interested in continuing. Brooklyn Deli is the best bagel in Atlanta! read more

Came here after a long run and the bagel was really fresh! Not a traditional NY style fluffy bagel, but was still tasty. Food came quick, but the food was a little too overpriced (guess that's typical for ATL) read more

Emerald City Bagels - sausage/egg/cheese on a salt bagel - Sandwiches Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Over priced and horrible customer service. Almost $30 for 2 bagels. They skimp on the cream cheese but charge a fair amount. The amount of cream cheese is like they did it by accident and then attempted to scrap it off and you get what's left. Absolutely not worth the price. Then if you call them out or mention it online they block you instead of trying to resolve the issue. This is why "small businesses" get "beat up " online. Because they have no customer service skills and force you to go public even when you try going directly to them, with hopes of them showing you a different experience because maybe it was an off day. But again for the price they don't have much room for "off days". Not to mention they have a "bagel box" outside to avoid the lines bug when you go even mid morning it's still closed forcing you to go inside and wait or pick something else in the area read more

Love love love! Such fun old school vibes and tasty cream cheese options. Always a special treat to get up early and walk the beltline with a bagel. read more

Good bagels but not great bagels to justify the price. The cream cheese was the highlight.

My first time at this new location on the Beltline. Same great bagels and retro look. The inside is designed for take out but there are tables outside. I liked The Veg a lot, especially the pickled onions and radishes. The cold brew was pretty good, too. read more

The bagels are perfection! Staff is helpful and delightful. Best bagel I've had since NYC! Try the Eggy Pop. #keepitlocal

Trendy experience! You can go inside, or if walking a dog, you can order at their window. It was yummy but did take a minute. We didn't mind because we wanted to sit a be slow... but just fyi read more

I loved the bagel I got (The Veg). I would absolutely get it again. I also ordered a coffee but the worker was soooo sweet and recommended the blueberry matcha instead. I'm very picky w my matcha and avoid it if i think it's going to be low quality but this was a 100/10!! I ended up buying another one lol read more

This place surprised me. I thought it would be over priced and underwhelming. While yes it is expensive (it's on the beltline) the food was pretty good. I got an egg sandwich with the chicken sausage. I'm not a fan of chicken sausage, but the side of pastrami would've been a 9.5 add-on. The bagel sandwich was really good though and will probably go back. read more

Every time I ask for a 2 BeC w/ chicken sausage, I never receive a BEC w/ chicken sausage. They charge me EVERY TIME. THIS IS THE 3rd time! And of course theirs no way to contact them.... It's ridiculous, I can't trust them to make me a bagel with everything they charged me for?! $40 for two bagels and you can't get it right?? read more

These bagels are out of this world! I had seen so much hype for this place, so initially I was worried my expectations wouldn't be met, but I was so wrong. Just like most people, I came here to check out the new self serve bagel machine, but I went to order inside instead. This place is so cute, it kind of has like an old diner feel. If you want a popular bagel, you need to get here early, they get cleaned out pretty quickly. I will say the only thing I wasn't a fan of was the fact that there wasn't any seating inside, but I guess it's more of a grab and go spot anyway. Either way I would make the 45 minute drive every time just for these bagels! read more
