smoked turkey and egg with cream cheese on an everything bagel
Amanda G.

I stumbled across Labyrinth when I had this insatiable craving for bagels that wouldn't leave my system. I came back to the RGV in 2022 after 4 years of being in college. During my time away, I found this bagel shop near my campus and so I went. I found a way to wake up early despite hating mornings with the help of a friend. We went together and tried their bagels and I guess that memory, that taste, that connection never really went away. One night in 2022, after failing to get some sleep, I searched up "bagels near me", just like that, without any other thought put into it. I guess really what I was trying to find was ways to go back to those years that had left me already. One single search gave me a list of different restaurants but not one that actually had bagels to choose from and try. I kept searching until I read "Labyrinth BCA" and there I found what I was looking for. I went the next day, filled with hope and hunger. I parked my car towards the back of their establishment and thought I had arrived during their busy hours because the place was busy and buzzing- both good things in my head. As I walked in I immediately noticed all the colorful stickers painted on one side of the wall and these large mirrors that stood tall and mighty. The plethora of windows invited the sun in to take a peek at the people inside. I loved the look and I liked that it aimed to make you feel cozy and at home. I went up to order and was met with a young man and there we began chatting about the coffees offered. I hadn't gone for the coffee but it was there and I was curious. I told him it was my first time there and how hesitant I was to try new coffee places because I had been to many and had never found a coffee I enjoyed. Despite the busy restaurant, the man took his time to help me decide on what to order. I mentioned I leaned more towards sweeter coffees so he brought up their famous "dirty taro". I asked what it tasted like and he replied with "fruit loop milk", his honest answer not only made me smile but it led me to get out of my comfort zone and try it. I paid for my dirty taro and my turkey and egg bagel. Both amazing choices. The bagel originally comes with chipotle mayo but I substituted it for cream cheese. The combination of flavors were amazing. The dirty taro tasted exactly like he said and I wondered how long it took him to find the perfect way to describe a drink to someone who had never tried it. The drink was wonderful too. I thought back to the bagel shop from my college that was a thousand miles away from where I sat now. I thought about how nostalgia can dress like a friend and sit with you in the new places you find around the RGV. Now, I come here every chance I get and usually always try to bring a friend or a relative. I tell them about the breakfast and lunch bagels, I tell them about how cool and inviting this place is, I tell them about the owner of the place and how kind he was during my first stop here, I tell them about the taro latte and how you really can't find it anywhere else. I tell them about how special some places can be and what they can make you feel.

One of our new favorite spots. The tea was amazing. We hadn't had decent bagels in so long! Cute interior. Friendly service. Nice clean bathroom, even.

A dramatic plan on wanting to be touched!

Comfy area to do some work slack. can get busy at times. I had a spam egg and cheese on an everything bagel, food service was as expected

Chipotle Chicken

This place is amazing! Many coffee shops these days don't have food options but labyrinth has both breakfast and lunch bagels! I got the chipotle chicken and it was fire! 7/10 and very reasonably priced! The employees were very friendly and quick with our coffees and food. The place is calm and a great place for a study session or a casual date!

Enjoyed a yummy coffee and bagel. I asked what was recommended since I enjoy my coffee on the sweeter side and I have to say I was very pleased with the recommendation . The bagel was so yummy and fresh. Will be back soon.

Perfect hidden gem! This is our favorite vacation coffee shop moving forward! Food is outstanding and fresh and staff is so friendly.

Bacon, egg and cheese bagel.  Smoked salmon, cucumber, tomato, and cream cheese bagel.

Bagels were super delicious! Great customer service and chill ambiance. I will definitely come back.

Breakfast Menu

I am honestly surprised by the low ratings. My trip to Labyrinth was fueled by a desire to try the Dirty Taro, and it was so good, I bought three. And two sandwiches, so I could save one for later. The Everything Bagel goes great with the smoked salmon, and my friend loved her Spam, Egg & Cheese bagel. The art indoors is lovely to look at (and for sale) and the customer service was masked, and friendly. It is a super bright spot filled with natural light and chill, but upbeat ambient music, perfect for remote work, or just to get a good meal for not a lot of money. I will absolutely be back.

What an excellent addition to the RGV! I haven't had a bagel sandwich that's worth a flip since my last trip to New York but, the ones they are serving at this establishment are just as good if not better! Additionally, the coffee was excellent and prepared as if I were in Italy! With that said I did have a couple of critiques: The bathroom door needs a better lock The ordering experience was awkward and could be streamlined Parking can be an issue if you're arriving for brunch They need to serve the bagel sandwich in an envelope so it won't be as messy when you eat it.

Coolest coffee shop you'll ever visit! First, aesthetic are on point. There's great art on the walls everywhere from local artist. Secondly , their drinks are delicious and unique, but they still offer classic coffee drinks like lattes and cappuccinos. Do yourself a favor and order a matcha taro latte or a coffee taro latte. You won't regret it .

The best bagel place in McAllen...I mean...it's the only one. Regardless, it is good and served fresh. Definitely give it a shot!

Amazing food and quick service! Also the desserts are worth it even if you dont want a meal…read more Just take it home.

So if I could give 1/2 stars, this place would get 4 1/2. We were in town and decided to stop by…read morefor breakfast. The place is very busy, but despite that the wait was only 10 minutes at 10:00 am on a Saturday. The hostess and our server were both very friendly. The place advertises that it specializes in home cooked comfort foods so we figured we'd have to see how their biscuits and gravy were. We ordered a 1/2 order and it came with a biscuit split in half and covered with gravy and sausage. The flavor was perfect - it definitely lived up to 'home cooked comfort food'. I ordered an omelette - three cheeses, sausage, bacon and ham with onions, cilantro and jalapeños - which came with refried (black) beans. The omelette was very good - flavorful and fresh. They actually use slices of cheese inside and on top - I've never had an omelette prepared that way but it was very good. When I first tasted the salsa I was not a fan - it was warm and had a different flavor - then I put it on the omelette and - great pairing and great flavor combo. The refried black beans were sadly underwhelming - no real flavor. I know they were homemade but they were missing the flavor that usually comes with refried beans (black or pinto) My wife had the quiche which had onions, peppers, sausage, mushrooms and cheese. It was very good. Even the crust was good. She ordered the breakfast potatoes as the side. The flavor of the potatoes was excellent. Half of them were lightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside which were great; the other half were overcooked and became potato chips - good flavor but not a breakfast potato. We will definitely come back to try their lunch food and dessert (we were too full today). They have a good variety of breakfast, lunch and dinner items on the menu so there is something for everyone. We were glad we stopped in.
