    Mt. Bagel is my go to bagel spot in Seattle! The bagels are fresh, delicious and taste good day of or reheated in the microwave after being frozen. Pop it in the microwave for 30 seconds, add cream cheese and you're set! I usually go on a Wednesday or Thursday morning right when they open, and there is usually a small line, but I never have to wait too long. Their service is quick and the workers are very friendly. If you do have to wait in line, everyone waiting with you are also friendly and chatty. A great little bakery in a residential area that is worth the drive and the wait.

    Finally made here. Was meeting a friend in the Mount Baker neighborhood for lunch so decided to go early to grab some bagels for my friend and I. At 9:30 ish on a Saturday there were probably about ten people in front of me. It's a good sign when I have New Yorkers in front and behind me. People around me said the cookies were good so added one to my dozen bagels. Got two of each except the everything. Actually like that they don't cut them thinking it probably keeps them fresher. There are two individuals handling orders in the small space one takes your order and packages your bagel while the other rings you up. Both are friendly and helpful I was giving half a dozen to my friend so I asked for an extra bag to put them into later. Didn't have one the day of but enjoyed one the next day just plain and torn still fresh with great chew. If timing worked out again definitely would stop by.

    This is one of my favorite spots for bagels now! I'd come here closer to opening time and don't let the line intimidate you too much it does move pretty fairly. It was my first time here on the weekend and I will be back. Although it's in a neighborhood, there's plenty of parking around. The workers here are so nice. The cookie is literally the perfect cookie, chewy and not too thick. I loved the salt flakes they added on top. You have to try it. The only thing I wouldn't grab again is probably the onion it was a little bit bitter to my liking - but the everything and garlic is my favorite one here. I got the spicy scallion cream cheese and it was perfectly seasoned and consistency. Love and a must if you're in the area or not, it's worth it.

    This place lived up to the rave reviews. We arrived 10 minutes before opening on a Saturday to find a short line (about 10 people in front of us) but the line moved quickly once they opened. The staff were lovely and did a wonderful job of keeping everything organized. We got two everything bagels and a spicy scallion cream cheese which was outstanding. The bagel was fluffy and so fun to pull apart. We even had a lot of leftover cream cheese which inspired us to eat bagels for the next few days. Not a lot of space to eat near the establishment, but the arboretum is close by and we enjoyed our breakfast on a park bench. It's around a 10 minute walk depending on how far you go, but would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area.

    Visited Mt Bagel on a Friday morning around 11 am to a wide selection. I ordered a sesame bagel with the spicy scallion cream cheese, and a couple salt bagels to go. My friend tried an everything and also thought it was delicious! The salt bagels were my favorite and saved well for the next day. My only complaint is that the only cream cheese option is an 8 oz. It was nice to take home, but it does slightly require you to buy extra bagels. The cream cheese itself was really tasty and flavorful. It was just quite expensive ($9) for an unnecessarily large size.

    Cool bagel shop located in the middle of a residential neighborhood perched on a giant hillside. Bagels were delicious and so was the spicy scallion cream cheese. Highly recommend. Also got cold brew coffee which was also delicious. No seating though :(

    I had heard that this is one of the best bagel shops in Seattle, so I needed to try it. It is in a residential area with no designated parking. This is a grab and go place. There are no tables or seats. Their bagel flavors include plain, salt, garlic, onion, poppy, and everything. I tried the salt bagel but should've gotten plain because it was way too salty for me. It has lots of salt bits all around the bagel. I think it would be good paired with eggs or something to balance out the saltiness. For texture, the outer layer was a bit tough to tear, and the inside was chewy and soft. Definitely recommend eating the bagel the same day or freezing it. They also sell cream cheese - plain, scallion, and spicy scallion. I only tried the spicy scallion, which has a good kick, not too spicy. Definitely grab a chocolate chip cookie too! I love the taste and the texture. I tried many chocolate chip cookies from different bake shops throughout Seattle, and this one is in my top two.

    It's definitely a top-three or four bagel spot in Seattle. The bagels are a nice size, with a little bit of tear and a fluffy but moist interior. The bagels are good (as I said, top three or four), but the schmears are the flavor bombs you seek--not many flavors, but well made. It's best to order in advance and then pick up the items at this kitchen on the first floor of a residential house. Staff is friendly and hard working, and you can tell they love what they are doing.

    An excellent bagel place in an unassuming location (an old Victorian style house). This place is to-go only; many people were sitting outside and eating on the sidewalk. I thought the bagels were excellent. The crust was substantive and the interior was nice and chewy. I got a half-dozen with schmear which was $24-25. I do feel that's pretty expensive for bagels however they were very good, and the staff clearly does an exceptional job. I'd come back if I was in the area.

    Some of my favorite bagels in Seattle! They're perfect, to the point where I can overlook the fact that they don't do sandwiches or offer a slice/toast option. While I wish they had those things, I'm just grateful these bagels exist here. I wouldn't really recommend getting a tub of cream cheese since it feels a bit overpriced, but if you want to treat yourself, go for it. Personally, I'd rather use what I already have at home or grab something more affordable from the store. The workers are always so kind, friendly, and welcoming, which makes me want to keep coming back.

    So far this is my favorite bagel in Seattle. It's very nice, fluffy but chewy and soft inside, crispy crust, lots of seeds. I'd still like it to be more dense inside dough with a pull. It lacks a pull of the dough I normally like. It's fluffy but not bready. It's nice. The cream cheese was also very flavorful and generous portion. It was like $9 buck though. The shop is in a neighborhood and unassuming house. You could just pass on by and not realized. I love neighborhood places. They also just do bagels. No sandwiches.

    A really solid bagel, and for a really great price! After Hey Bagel opened up I figured it was finally about time to come here and see how it compares. The journey up here is quite the hike, but when I arrived the line was too outrageously long, and it moved pretty quick. I got an everything bagel to go, and warmed it up in the air fryer before eating. It had a really nice crust with a good amount of seeds and salt, while the inside remained soft. The flavor was sourdough-esque, and tasted really good! They also have "uglier" bagels for only $1 - I'll definitely get some of those next time. I also heard great things about their cookies, so I'll be sure to be back!

    I hope the gravity of what I'm about to say is being conveyed accurately through this review, but this was THE best bagel I have ever eaten. I grew up on Long Island so I say this with great thought and consideration. The toppings were and evenly spread out through the entire outside of the bagel, even the bottom, and finely chopped so each bite was perfectly balanced. The outside was perfectly chewy and firm while the inside was the fluffiest bagel bread I've had. I felt like this was a true authentically made bagel. The bagel itself was so good, which is often times harder to come by because sometimes the bagel is just a vehicle for the cream cheese. But in this case, the bread itself came with so much delicious flavor that perfectly complemented the cream cheese. as far as the cream cheese itself, I only have good things to say too. I tried the spicy scallion cream cheese and was odd by how perfectly spicy it was. The texture was so light and fluffy, you could tell it was handmade, and it almost felt whipped! And to top it all off each tub came with a cute hand, drawn, unique design that made the experience even more enjoyable. they know their bagels are good and that no other frills are needed. They don't exactly slice the bagel, or serve it with individual schmear -- instead they will provide a tub of your cream cheese of choice as well as whole bagels by the each or dozen. you should be prepared that there is no seating inside of the establishment so you will have to take it to go.

    Everything Bagel - absolutely. insanely. delicious. IG - @bilalandjesseatfood

Infact their staff also plays tricks, - especially one of their girls. Once I asked her if they are getting more of fresh bagels, she said no and gave me the bagels from the shelf. While giving me a bag, a new batch came out from the back, and so then she changed just 2 of the bagels, not all. Since this was my first time, I didn't really think much about this. For next few weeks I again went couple of times , some other people person were on the counter, who was gracious enough to always tell me that yes a new batch is coming up but I might have to wait for 10-15mins. I waited and every-time got warm bagels. After few weeks I again went, and the same first girl was there and I asked her the same question , she again said no, so I insisted if she can go back and check (it was just 9am only), she said it more firmly to me - "I am telling you there is no more fresh bagels coming in". So I took whatever she gave me from the shelf. While walking out , from the window I saw a big tray of fresh bagels came out. But since the line was long, I didn't want to get into the conversation with that girl, so I ignored it. This happened one more time recently as well. So not sure if that one particular girl didn't want to give me fresh ones or maybe she wants older bagels to sell before giving out fresher one, but since this happened 3 times, I am not impressed. I had also bought their bagels once from their pop-up market and it was also not that fresh. By the way, their small cafe has good ambiance if you want to sit there and enjoy their bagels and coffee right there. Whatever I write above, I will still keep coming back since they are my 2nd fav bagel shop in Seattle area.

On my most recent visit, I also tried the black sesame bagel with butter. It was good, but there was a bit more butter than I would have preferred, and the standard toast wasn't quite crispy enough for my liking. That's an easy fix though, and I'll just ask for it toasted a bit longer and less butter next time. I really love the location of this spot and am hoping to check out their other location soon. They share a great outdoor seating area with Sea Wolf Bakers and also have a small amount of indoor seating. There's usually a line on weekday mornings and a longer one on weekends, but it moves surprisingly quickly, so the wait has never felt unreasonable. One thing I especially appreciate is how light these bagels are compared to some other Seattle bagel shops. They have a great chew without feeling overly dense. Service has always been friendly and efficient. I still haven't tried any of their fish sandwiches, but that's next on my list. Until then, I'm perfectly happy sticking with a classic sesame bagel and cream cheese.

They'll make a smaller Seattle sized version as well for those who don't treat deli as an indulgence of rye and meat piled high. I wish they'd add kreplach to the menu (sorry Vance.

Black & White Cookies (4/5): I expected this to be cloyingly sweet, but this was actually scrumptious with some fresh lemon flavor in the cookie itself. Absolutely massive as well.

A few things to consider: I've never had a bagel on its own here, only a bagel sandwich. So I don't feel as though I can give an expert opinion on the bagels. However, they do work very well for the sandwiches. The everything bagel is absolutely loaded with seasoning, and has an incredible saltiness (I'm a salty man, so this is a good thing). I feel as though this elevates the eggs to a new level. I was immediately drawn to a pastrami breakfast sandwich, because it's a top tier meat. This will feel more like you're eating thin roast beef because of the color, but it's still pretty good. I do think that this sandwich needs some acidity to balance out all of the fat, so grab some hot sauce at the counter. Overall this was a great sandwich, and I would get it again. That being said, I feel like the bagels are lacking due to a fault in a core ingredient. They all come with potatoes, and I think that they're either boiled or not quite roasted enough. Having to deal with undercooked potatoes dispersed throughout a mondo burrito is a battle that I'm unwilling to wage - but people seem to love 'em. The other ingredients and overall flavor is nice, though. Rachel's is a fun place with good coffee, too. And they let me bring my dog in which is dope.
