The shop was busy but I was greeted and waited on right away. Bought bagels for some family coming over and my sister said they were delicious and asked where I got them. Nice and crispy crusts with chewy insides. read more

Came here looking for a breakfast sandwich. The place is located in a nice part of Alameda with a neighboring Starbucks and plenty of parking. The place is warm and cozy inside with FM radio pop station playing in background. The service was pretty quick. I ordered a lox sandwich with extra egg on an everything bagel. It tasted really good. Next time I will pass on the capers and onions. read more

At the start of every day, I needed a light breakfast and coffee or tea and found this little spot near my hotel. It's in a shopping area with shared parking and easy to get to. The bagel shop is small, with a handful of indoor seats, plus some outdoor nearby. They had a selection of fresh made bagels, plus different toppings and fixed sandwiches. Their prices were super reasonable, the staff was welcoming and efficient to make your breakfast quickly. I came in a few times as a nice start to my days. read more

Could be good, but I swear they use 2-4 day old stale bagels sometimes. Esp. the salt. Also sometimes the onions get all old and stringy, you know? Not sure the quality is where it should be ...... Bummer. read more

Fast and good! Loved the bagel quality. Only wish is that they gave more lox but for $12, can't complain read more

I use to love coming here and buying Bagels when i lived down the street. Now the last couple of months i have been coming in from Point Richmond and it does not seem to matter what time of the day it is, they never have Rye bagels and only (1) Pumpernickel Bagel (probably the same Bagel) from the last 3 months. They don't seem to care when i voice my frustration and i will no longer give them my business. read more

Love this place!! Their bagels are so delicious as well as their muffins! I generally order the lox sandwich but can never go wrong with any of them. read more

Came for the cinnamon raisin bagel and onion . I love that they have the honey cream cheese soo bomb and onion cream cheese . Love the price and quick service . Kind owners :) read more

I found satisfaction to my bagel craving at Levy's. Poppyseed, toasted, cream cheese. Fresh, soft, thin crisp crust. Friendly people, you know, the kind that actually like people. Small place with lots of other baked goods to choose from. I almost went back for another. read more

The space is cute and quaint -- not much seating. I got a plain bagel with egg and cheese. It was alright. I wasn't expecting them to make the eggs in the microwave... and they could have used some seasoning. With that being said, the service was good. The cashier was very sweet. I'll probably try this place one more time before I rule it out. read more

It was like, 11am or something when I went in and it was still kinda busy. 2-3 people in front of me. Some staying to eat inside, some eating outside since it was a beautiful day. I don't remember which bagel I wanted, but they said it wouldn't be ready for 10-12 minutes. Seeing as there was an abundance of bagels already ready. I chose a French toast bagel. Because, why not. It was ready in like 5 minutes or something. I honestly didn't eat it until many many hours later. I got busy and forgot about it. It was still good, but I'm sure it would have been much better fresh out of the toaster. I guess I'll have to come back to verify that/try another type of bagel/whatever bagel it was that I wanted to try in the first place lol read more

The best bagels on the island! The strawberry cream cheese is my favorite. The staff are super friendly too

Great bagels with friendly service at a fair price! Clean and well run! What more could you ask for! If you want to support a nice, family owned, local business this is the place for you! read more

Toasted lox bagel sandwich was good. Minus a point for having no bathrooms for customers, despite having a full kitchen, onsite seating, and potentially being legally required to do so by state law. read more

love everything about this place - the bagels, sandwiches, staff, etc...bagels are always fresh and toasted perfectly. i love just a simple bagel w/ cream cheese or their lox bagel. everything reasonably priced. great place to start your morning. thank you! read more

This is a great classic bagel place with good prices and options. I have been coming here for years and the bagels are always very fresh and they are very efficient. You know what you're getting, which is great. I have gone in when there's six other people waiting for their bagel and I've waited no more than seven minutes. This is my favorite place to get bagels on the island. read more

As a native NYer, Levy's comes "hella" close. The lox sandwich hits! Get you one! Also the Black and whites are authentic!

I had a package to drop off at fedex and noticed this shop next door. So I decided to walk in and see what they had. I had already made of my mind that I was going to purchase something before walking into the shop. There were about 5 people already in the shop. No greeting when I walked in. But I definitely noticed that they saw me when I entered. I stood and looked at the sign to make a decision. The nice cashier asked me if I was ready and I said no, so she told me to let her know when I was ready. After deciding I walked up and a man stood at the register and asked me I was ready. No hi or anything, he stood and looked at me with a blank expression. After I placed my order, I was paying and noticed that a white woman walked in after me, but was greeted profusely. The man bagged my items and left them on the counter while he tended to the women who walked in after me. The vibes were definitely off, which is upsetting because I wanted to come back. read more

My stop in Alameda bagels grand! Tasty good texture delicious and affordable. The spreads are nice and flavorful. My go to is the onion spread on the jalapeño cheese bagel! Really good! Really good read more

The owners are very nice - my favorite is their white fish spread. Try them out they are the best bagel place alameda hands down. Also their lox schmear. read more

This place is okay. It does the job well in order to have something quick while having one of my top favourite "snacks". The bread was too chewy but the seating was on point. I think my favourite are the cream cheeses. One is able to purchase a small or large container from them on the side, which are fresh and totally worth it. I got the garden veggie and it was quite robust with pieces of veggies. They have good prices for a bagel filled with schmear. I didn't see any veggies like tomatoes and red onions. Service was a bit off. Not sure if the staff member was having a rough morning but it felt like I was being talked like if I didn't know what I was doing. Plenty of seating outside, there's a park nearby so a nice afternoon would with bagels would be nice. And the inside is spacious with tables. The sun hits the place a lot if you want to enjoy some shade. AC transit buses 20, O, 51A, 78, 96 pass by. I'll come for the cream cheese. read more

Coming from Brooklyn, NY, this is my go to spot for a fairly priced lox sandwich and a dozen everything bagels in the East Bay. These bagels have a crisp exterior and the center has a nice chew. Grab a (baker's) dozen, cut them in half, freeze them. Then toast one up when you want one. They're perfect. They always take good care of me too; they even remember my name when I call in a dozen. read more

For my money this is by far the best bagel place in Alameda. I'm a longtime customer. Friendly people working there and fresh bagels and schmears. They've captured the essence of a slightly cracking, thick bagel exterior with dense delicious dough. A hearty, inexpensive meal is to be found here. Love it. read more

I am a type of person who doesn't eat breakfast even though I really REALLY like breakfast. Breakfast food to me can be eaten any time of the day. So I know a spot is good if I can eat one or more of their items on the menu early in the morning and late at night. Levy's Bagels & Co caught my eye as I was exiting Walgreens one late morning before heading to work. I figured I have already tried most of the food spots on this street so why not try this? Some places just feel welcoming you know? Maybe it was the smell of the fresh bagels. Maybe it was the lighting. Or maybe it was the kind woman who greeted me as soon as I walked in. If you love bagels, you'll find all sorts. There's the classic one to the cheese one to the odd but satisfying ones. It's not just the bagels. There are a good number of different cream cheeses as well. So what do I choose from the menu? I'm a sucker for hot links so the fact that they have a hot link wrapped in bagel bread BLEW MY MIND. So clearly I ordered two. You have the option of getting it hot or not. For me, I had to get it hot. And my goodness was that the right choice! The hot link was a good amount of spicy and chewy. The bread was soft yet not mushy. Add those two to some jalapeño cream cheese and viola! Instant satisfaction! So the morning hot link bagel was good. What about the second one? I ate that one for dinner. Warming a hot link bagel in the microwave may seem to be a bad idea, but the food tasted just as good if not better than when it gets heated up at the bagel spot. Other notes: Customer service: 5/5 Menu variety: 5/5 Drink variety: 5/5 Parking: 4/5 Good: 5/5 Overall, 5/5. read more

One of may favorite breakfast place in alameda, everything is always so fresh, the lux sandwich is to die for, they are really quick so you can swing by to take a sandwich and be on your way in no time Very recommended read more

Great bagel! Chaotic service. They yell out your orders here not your name. I think as a mom and pop on a slow day, this isn't a big deal, but they do have a good crowd. Would have been awesome to rate 4 or 5 stars given that Starbucks is their neighboring competition. I was there around 11 on a Saturday morning so there were others that ordered salmon on their bagel. I walked up a couple times misunderstanding whose order was whose. It felt a bit uncomfortable to be perceived as rushing the order when I was just trying to grab the order I thought was mine. Verbatim was told, "Yours isn't even getting heated yet." read more

I dropped by and ordered the San Fran on an everything bagel for lunch. There were a couple people ahead of me, but plenty of space to socially distance. The person took my order and it took less than 5 minutes to head out of the door. I will say, I did not think through my trip, because I picked up lunch, went to run an errand, and then ate lunch. In hindsight, I should have eaten bagel fresh. The flavor of the chicken salad was nice and peppery. The veggies included were fresh and I appreciated the pickle spears. The bagel itself was a bit tough, but that was my fault. It could have also used more 'everything' flavor, but maybe the chicken salad overpowered it? All that being said, I plan to make a trip in the morning to try breakfast! read more

Aside from the guy working here who barely acknowledged me when I went in.. this place doesn't seem to be open according to the posted hours...its like he opens when he chooses to ...bagel was good..until there's more consistency doubt I'll be back read more

Toasted bagels are key and this place gets it. Highly recommend to eat your toasted bagel right away at its optimal. A variety of bagels and cream cheese to choose from. Prepared fairly quickly. Lox bagel (together and cream cheese in the middle) or sandwich (open face with cream cheese on both sides) consisted of smoked salmon, red onions, tomatoes, and capers. I'd add a diff cream cheese next time to make it more interesting as opposed to doing the standard cream cheese. My favorite thus far is probably the jalapeño cheese bagel with garlic herb cream cheese and egg (it's scrambled egg). Honestly if this place did a runny egg I think I just found my favorite bagel spot in the Bay Area. read more

First time coming here with my sister in which she highly recommends. Ordered croissants salmon lox and the croissant still very fresh from the oven. I had everything bagel with cheese and egg yummy! The gentleman was very nice and helpful definitely will come back. read more

Best bagels I have ever had in my life. They have custom cream cheeses too which are amazing.

Popped in out of curiosity as I waited for my Starbucks coffee next door. The owners were incredibly funny, kind, and welcoming. The bagel was fresh, but I would recommend ordering cream cheese on the side (the serving was a little heavy handed and I LOVE cream cheese). Overall, fast and friendly. I'll be sure to pop in again. read more

Plan on it being packed! I'm not a huge bagels fan but my daughter is so she found this place. The breakfast bagel sandwiches are stuffed with yummy goodness. Bagels were fresh too. They don't serve coffee but you can go next door to Starbucks for that (if you're a Starbucks kind of coffee drinker). Service is just ok; I think because they're busy they're just cranking them out. I don't think it's worth a drive if you're not a true bagel fan, but if you are apparently this is the spot. read more

I've been going to this shop for over ten years. Love that it is family own and family run. One employee has been there as long. That says good things about the shop. The male that runs the place is MISERABLE and RUDE. His wife is delightful. But when she is gone, his rudeness doesn't make this shop worth going. I'll be checking out others places. Big hint! Sir, when you are laughing and making fun of your customers, we can hear you. read more

The place was clean. Staff friendly. I'm on the hunt for the best breakfast sausage bagel since my old location closed. I got the morning star with cheese on everything bagel. It's ok. Scrabbled eggs we microwaved and the everything bagel was lacking flavor and the everything I was looking for. Kinda drab. Sausage was tater though. read more

The Great Alameda Bagel Taste Off of 2021. Our family kept debating which was the best bagel of the four (!) bagel places on Alameda Island (sorry bay farm). Criteria was wide ranging and kind of depends what you like in a bagel. My wife prefers crunchy outside and soft inside. I prefer a tastier, softer bagel. we agreed to meet in the middle. We rated not just the bagel itself, but also the cream cheese, two sandwiches (sausage/egg/cheese and a vegan sando), as well as the service and decor. Levy's was the winner, mostly driven by having the second best bagel (Alameda Bagel & donut wins), by far the best sandwiches (especially the Greenwich vegan bagel sando, which is fantastic), and great service. If you're just looking for a delicious soft bagel, Alameda Bagel and Donuts are great. Their sandos were in third but you can also get a donut hole while you're there, so Alameda Bagel gets second place. Bagel Street Cafe has the best decor, including outdoor seating, so to put them in third is a bit harsh. Bagels were pretty good, service was fine, it's a good spot, and more options for sandos. Last place by far was house of bagel. Poor service, awful sandos, and meh bagels at best. read more
