    Bagel of the Day Menu
    Stephanie S.

    Made a pit stop here before a road trip! Blueberry bagel was tasty and the cake batter cream cheese dip was so fun. Ordered the banana bread latte with an extra shot of espresso, strong coffee flavor but could have used a little more banana flavoring.

    What is there to say about this place that is bad? Literally nothing. The staff was friendly and explained the different bagels and spreads they had that day and I got to see a few interesting ones like the cake batter and banana pudding! I decided to get the flight with my family and we got the regular, roasted jalapeno and the veggie. The jalapeno one was the best because it had a nice heat but the cream cheese helped cut that right away. I got a rosemary salt bagel and right as I opened the bag I knew it would be amazing. The smell was heavenly and the bagel was soft and warm. The bagel had a nice little crunch to it and the cream cheese blended beautifully with it as well. Prices are great here with a single bagel being $2.25 and going up from there if you get a half or full dozen. The place is tiny so if it gets busy you will have to eat in your car or wait for a spot to open. Overall an amazing place and I can't wait for them to open one near me in the near future!

    Oh my!  Nana's stuffing bagel with chive and onion cream cheese is heavenly.
    Erin G.

    Nana's stuffing bagel was the bagel of the day on November 16th, 2025. It just was a joyous way to start the day. Really great with the chive & onion cream cheese. I enjoy most of Jeff's bagel flavors and the stuffing flavored bagel is a special flavor for November 2025. It will be the bagel of the day again on Wednesday November 26th. Don't miss out! Last time I only got two but this time I am going to score a half dozen. Pro tip: Download the Jeff's app and the daily bagel flavors for the week are posted on Sunday. Through the app you can place an online order for the following days and a pickup time. Go ahead and sleep in.

    Asiago Bagel & Vanilla Cold Brew
    Alex B.

    I tried this place out for the 1st time last week & I've been thinking about it ever since. Everything during my visit was great from the wonderful, friendly service to the delicious cold brew to the star of the show: the bagels & cream cheese(s). The selection of unique bagel & cream cheese options to choose from is awesome. They offer everything from the standard Asiago, poppy & sesame while also delivering some different, yet delicious flavor combinations like jalapeño cheddar, rosemary salt, Asiago everything & more. Whatever you end up getting is guaranteed to be delicious as it comes out warm, soft & fresh. The cream cheese selection also deserves an honorable mention. While you can't go wrong with a good plain spread, why would you stop there? If you're feeling bold you can get hot sauce, chive & onion or roasted jalapeño to list a few. Even your sweet tooth can be satisfied with flavors like banana pudding, cake batter, cannoli or cookies & cream. The chive & onion was absolutely delicious. The jalapeño also had a great flavor to it & a surprisingly nice kick. You can get a flight to try 3 different flavors (which was another first for me). The serving is enough for multiple people to split. Do yourself a favor & get a flight. This small bagel shop is everything but small when it comes to flavor. Having tried tons of bagels in my life I can confidently say these are some of the best you can get. Great employees with even better bagels & coffee is a huge W. If Orlando wasn't 3 hours away I'd be here weekly. I can't wait to come back soon.

    I was so excited to try the bagels here and I'm so glad I got to try them today. Full disclosure... I consider myself somewhat of a bagel snob having been born and raised in NY. I'm always on the hunt for good bagels and I have to say these are some of the best I've had outside NY! They have so many delicious variety of bagels such as asiago, asiago everything, rosemary salt, banana bread, cacio e Pepe, blueberry etc, choosing which one was the hardest part. They have a special flavor daily donut and today's flavor was funnel cake. The same goes for their cream cheese with so many great flavors to choose from.. flavors such as plain, onion and chive, jalapeño cheddar, hot sauce, banana pudding etc. choosing which to try was hard to do! I finally decided on a asiago everything and onion and chive cream cheese. The bagel was so good, it actually was soft and fluffy with the perfect chew to it and it was so warm. They do not toast bagels here so if that's your thing, I would suggest you avoid coming here. What they do is turn out nice warm bagels for you to enjoy. The onion and chive cream cheese was absolutely delicious. Not too strong tasting or too oniony. I had a mocha iced coffee and it was great. No bitter aftertaste, just nice and smooth. Finally, the staff here were all so nice and so helpful and patient. The cashier even suggested I download the app and told me I'd earn enough points just for signing up that I'd get a free bagel. Not a bad deal! Unfortunately, there are no Jeff's Bagel Run near where I live in Cooper City, FL but I was told that they'll be down here in about six months. I am so excited about that! I highly suggest you stopping by and checking them out if you're fortunate enough to have one near you. You won't be sorry!

    The bagel of the day "The Abby"
    Erica P.

    I have ordered bagels for delivery from them several times over the last few months on DD and I never went inside and I finally did. The staff were incredibly friendly, very professional, and very knowledgeable about their different bagels and their flavor profiles. The establishment itself is pretty tight. There really isn't a whole lot of space to eat however, it was incredibly clean. If you're not eating a bagel from Jeff's Bagel Run.... are you really eating a bagel???

    Bagels!
    Steph T.

    Thick doughy bagels with a very particular shell, which must be from the boiling. Keeps the insides all soft and scrumptious! A unique variety of cream cheese options like strawberry, cannoli and even though I am not the biggest cream cheese person, I feel Jeff might have made me a believer. The woman working the front was absolutely killing it! Taking orders in store, and also packing up online orders. She was so sweet and even gave us some cream cheese samples to try. Can't say enough good things about this place. So friendly, super clean, and easy to get to!

    Valentine day sprinkle bagel place

    Such a great bagel place. We went on Valentine's Day and got the sprinkle bagel. It was very busy but they still had plenty in stock.

    Jalapeño cheddar bagel
    Christine F.

    I've been in search of fresh and delicious bagels in Orlando, and Jeff's Bagel Run definitely hits the spot! The owners are from up North and wanted to bring the bagel culture to central Florida, and I think they did an amazing job. Once you're inside, you're greeted with a wall of fresh bagels and numerous unique spreads to choose from. I decided to go for the speciality bagel today, which was jalapeño cheddar. I paired it with a chives and onion cream cheese spread, as well as an iced latte. This bagel was amazing! Cheesy, soft, and so flavorful. Definitely stop in one of Jeff's locations when looking for a filling breakfast!

    Rosemary and salt bagel
    Marina D.

    Okay, I did not see this coming from a bagel spot in Orlando--but wow, this place might just rival (dare I say... beat?) some of the bagels I've had in New York! They've got a killer variety of flavors, both for the bagels and the cream cheese. Think: Cacio e Pepe, rosemary & sea salt (I tried that one--obsessed), and more. Pro tip: pair it with their cheese + jalapeño cream cheese combo. Absolute fire. Now, a heads-up for the purists--they don't toast your bagel and they don't schmear it for you. But hear me out: they come out piping hot, fresh from the oven, with that perfect crusty outside and pillowy, flavorful inside. And they hand you a generous cup of cream cheese to DIY your dream bite--so you control the chaos. Bottom line: whether you're a bagel snob or just bagel-curious, this place delivers. Easily one of the best bagels I've had in a long time. Bravo, Orlando!

    Jarod J.

    Absolutely amazing! I love bagels and it's always difficult to find a good bagel. These are great bagels! They are so soft and delicious. There are a lot of creative bagel flavors and cream cheese options. They were delicious! I first ordered the Asiago everything bagel with jalapeño cream cheese and it was unbelievable. I went back the next day to buy a dozen more bagels. Aside from providing amazing bagels, the people are also incredible kind! This place is a must try. Thanks!

    Fresh bagels
    Jason R.

    Well locally made bagels have come to the Windermere / Dr Phillps area. Jeff's bagel run is run by Jeff, he's been making Bagels for sometime now and if you've lived around winter garden you might have heard of him. Now he's got a few new locations open and boy your in for a real treat. These are very fresh made bagels, the shmere is fresh as well. They use real fruit in it and it tastes great. Selection is bagels and coffee and there only open to 2pm.

    Time for lunch! Bag of bagels
    Danielle N.

    I stopped at Jeff's Bagel Run and tried the Asiago bagel and the blueberry bagel. Both were fresh and flavorful, but the Asiago was my favorite. It was soft, warm, and had the perfect balance of cheese without being overpowering. The blueberry bagel was also enjoyable with a nice hint of sweetness. Service was friendly and quick, making it an easy stop for a quality breakfast. I will definitely be returning, especially for the Asiago.

As for the bagels, Jeff's has a regular line up of the favorites everyone loves, but they also come up with weekly flavors.

Honestly, it feels like Jeff's intentionally opens in areas without strong bagel competition because they know their product wouldn't hold up in a true bagel city. The whole "we don't toast or schmear our bagels" thing comes off less like authenticity and more like a lazy excuse. In places known for bagels, that's literally part of the experience, so pretending otherwise is kind of frustrating. As for the bagels themselves, they're just... fine. Not bad, but definitely not memorable. Kind of middle-of-the-road and not something I'd go out of my way for. I'll probably stick with Brooklyn Water Bagel and keep hoping that one day Jeff's decides to get it together and serve a properly toasted bagel.

My expectations? Realistic. I knew they probably wouldn't be met... but hope is a powerful thing. I showed up Sunday at 10:30am fully prepared for a line out the door. To my surprise, the majority of the people were a swarm of Uber Eats drivers. God bless them.Delivering to the masses while also blocking those of us who physically made it out of bed. The place itself has plenty of seating inside and outside, which I appreciated. Service was... okay. I got a kid at the counter who looked like a deer in headlights. Sweet? Yes. Confident in anything happening? Absolutely not. it was just a kid. Maybe a little more training wouldn't hurt. Now, the important part: the bagel. I ordered the sourdough everything bagel in an egg sandwich and grabbed a Black Russian bagel to go (I think that's what it's called -- if not, forgive me). And honestly? Solid. Respectable. It came close. Not quite NYC-level but ok. The coffee, however... no. I ordered one where the ice cubes are made of coffee Unfortunately, it had a mysterious aftertaste that I'm still trying to identify. Burnt? Bitter? Existential disappointment? Hard to say. The place was clean, and there were plenty of staff walking around making sure everything looked good, which I appreciated. Would I come back? Maybe. It's in the running. But my Orlando Bagel Quest continues. The perfect one has yet to reveal itself.

Eola General is tucked just a block away from Lake Eola in a cozy renovated house. I was immediately charmed by the adorable outdoor seating. Inside, you'll find encouraging messages painted on the walls, tons of character, and several fridges stocked with all kinds of beverages, including local beer and wine. Their menu features amazing large bagels, various cream cheeses, and bakery items. One thing I really appreciate about Eola General is their inclusivity when it comes to dietary preferences. They offer lots of vegan options. I ordered an everything bagel with veggie cream cheese, one of my personal favorites, and I can confidently say this was one of the best versions I've ever had. You can actually taste the bits of veggies in the spread. The bagels are big, so make sure you come hungry! Of course, I had to try their coffee too. I went with a seasonal drink called Grandma's Bowl, made with brown butter, toffee nut, pumpkin purée, and oat milk. After one sip, I was convinced this was the best fall drink of the season! Perfectly balanced between sweetness and bold. I was so impressed with their vegan offerings that I also picked up a vegan cupcake for my friend, complete with a cute little acorn design. Eola General is full of delicious options and truly embodies the spirit of Lake Eola and Orlando with its kind staff and unique offerings. I highly recommend this spot for a breakfast date with friends or even a first date. There's definitely something delicious for everyone.
