Odell's is something Denver has that I have yet to find in other cities. Whoever thought of this sushi/bagel concept is a genius. I came on a Sunday morning and the wait wasn't too long. Whatever the wait is, it's worth it. The cashier was so helpful in pairing the bagels with the fish we picked out for our order. Unfortunately, they were out of the hamachi so I'll def have to come back for it. The furikake bagel is just so dang good! It pairs well with all of the fishes. My favorite has to be the ikura and tuna poke. 10/10!
Sushi bagels? Yes please! I saw the ikura picture from Instagram and have been craving it ever since! It was so fresh and delicious, plus the wasabi toppings - worth the drive over. I was also really impressed by the furikake bagels! Had to get a half dozen to go (2 furikake, 2 everything, 1 blueberry). The SEC sandwich was also good but I think I would choose a different bagel instead of the everything bagel. It was pretty dry. Not sure if you were able to add cream cheese but I ordered so fast I didn't know. It's one of those places that I really enjoyed that I'm already thinking about going again - like tomorrow! Haha Street parking! There are lots nearby but I'm not sure if they are pay-to-park or for those businesses only.
SOLID fresh bagel! Ordered half nova lox and half pastrami lox on an everything bagel. Came on a Sunday morning w a bit of a line- to be expected- but food came out reasonably quick. I wish there was a bit more outdoor seating but overall very good experience. We wanted to also try the jam bagel but it was solid out which was a bummer..
This is the most impressive bagel spots I've visited. The texture of the bagel itself is not what wowed me but rather all the flavors. You can get two different bagel halves which I appreciated so I tried the tuna poke and the rhubarb marmalade with ginger, both of which have cream cheese as a base. The tuna poke was so fresh and the rosemary bagel was truly loaded with rosemary. The rhubarb jam was deliciously sweet, there was a generous amount, and I loved the ginger on top. I highly recommend looking at the menu ahead of time because it can be a bit overwhelming with all the options and even on a weekday there was a lineup mid morning. There is limited seating: one 4 person table inside, counter seating and 2-3 tables outside. I have heard some individuals complain about the price but I would easily pay $10 for that tuna poke bagel half any day which is a hearty meal on its own.
Odell's Bagel is seriously my favorite spot! I ordered a rosemary bagel with salmon roe, pastrami and whitefish, all with cream cheese and they were fresh! The bagel was warm and perfectly toasty. Everything tasted delicious and the flavors worked so well together. I especially loved that they added lots of dill!! I was a little sad the hamachi had run out, but honestly this is as close to a New York-style bagel as it gets! I've definitely come here multiple times and will keep coming back. Highly recommend if you're craving a really good bagel!
Favorite bagels in Denver! If I lived closer to Odell's, I fear I'd gladly be here everyday. The fish here is so fresh and almost melts in your mouth. I appreciate that they don't skimp on the toppings/herbs and the cream cheese is utter perfection. Also, their evening omakase sushi experience is amazing! I think about the strawberry brioche French toast that I had here at least once a week. They do often sell out of bagels often so make sure you go early!
I was excited to try this place and even more excited that it wasn't too busy due to the Farmers Market. It's a small place but there is some bar seating, a few tables both inside and out. Everyone is really friendly and the orders come out fast. The bagel sandwiches are really good.
I used to say Odell's was indisputably the best bagel in Denver given how fresh their seafood tastes (particularly their white fish and hamachi - which is flown in from Japan). However, not sure if my most recent Japan trip has me a little biased but the hamachi was good not great but the whitefish was a letdown as it was too salty.
All the elements tasted fine, but didn't quite meet my expectations... The ratio seemed off on the sandwich, plus it was pretty pricey...
Service with a smile & patience as it was our first time. There was a line that moved quickly so our wait for the food was pretty quick. Dined outside. We all enjoyed all six bagels. To most favorite was whitefish & hamachi on a rosemary bagel.
Small bagel counter shop - not much room for seating but can easily take to go. If you like fish their unique open face bagels sandwiches are a must! The register attendant wasn't rude but she def wasn't personable or friendly- luckily this wasn't enough to knock off a star in the total rating of this place. Had the tuna poke and pastrami lox on furikake bagel = so good. The tuna poke was incredibly fresh and cut to order, but the pastrami lox stole the show for me! The flavors and ingredient portions were perfection. Also ordered a basic egg, bacon and cheese on an everything bagel sandwich - the bacon could have been crispier but it was a still solid brekkie sandwich, however, I would not choose it over the other two we had. I really wanted to try their bagel plus house made plum jam and we didn't learn until at the register that they are out of jam until the next seasonal one can be made (citrus base of some sort), bummer for timing I guess. Snagged seats at the bar where you can watch the cooks at work - cutting up fish with precision and fresh made bagels in a variety of flavors. Word is they offer limited dinner dining at the counter as well which I am intrigued to try. Overall, I plan to return!
Found my new favorite bagel spot in town! It was crowded so come prepared to wait in a line. Service was quick and at 1pm they were still preparing fresh bagels. The inside is small but has bar and (one) table seating. I tried the NovaLox sandwich and couldn't recommend it more. Excited to try more off this menu!
Hands down one of the most unique and thoughtful dining experiences I've had in a long time. Odell's Bagel omakase completely redefines what you think a bagel experience can be -- elevated, intentional, and absolutely delicious. Every course was a surprise and delight. Here's everything we had: Zensai: * Bagel flower pickled onion, cured tomato, black olive powder, caper leaf Raw: * Kampachi - Trout Roe - Shiso * Scallop - Green Almond - Plum Chilled: * Asari Clam - Dashi Tomato Grilled: * Veggie Bowl - Grilled Zucchini - Sesame Yuzu Broth Nigiri Sushi: * Bagel - House-Smoked Salmon * King Mackerel - Wasabi Leaf * King Salmon - Pickled Onion * Amberjack - Ginger * Miso Cured Foie Gras * Tuna - Caviar - Scallion Donabe: * Local Mushroom - Shiso - Cured Yuba - Summer Truffle White Miso Soup Dessert: * Strawberry Ginger Sorbet - Yuzu Crumble Even the beverage pairing was spot on, with a Strawberry-Rhubarb Shochu Highball and natural wine selections from Gérard Boulay and Clemens Busch. Every dish felt thoughtful, seasonal, and balanced. 10/10 recommend if you want a culinary experience that's cozy, unexpected, and beautifully executed

I was prompted into trying Odell's Bagel when a group chat I was in posted about this bagel shop. When I first arrived, I was enthusiastic due to the line spanning out the door. However, my enthusiasm quickly evaporated when it came time to order. First, the pricing is on the expensive side. For example, they're charging $18 for pastrami cured salmon on top of a bagel. Second, they ran out of food. By the time I had gotten to the cash register, the lox was gone. They also ran out of all bagel types except for pumpernickel. Thus, I settled for a pumpernickel bagel with egg and bacon, which still ran me $12.50 before tax. Third, the countertop I sat down at, which was the only free space in the restaurant, was littered with breadcrumbs. Nevertheless, the food quality here is a strong redeeming feature. This bagel sandwich was absolutely delicious. More specifically, the bagel was crunchy on the outside while being dense on the inside; this high-quality bagel is unlike the bagels found at grocery stores and makes the wait totally worth it. Overall, Odell's has excellent bagels but fails on the service front. It's definitely worth checking out if you're in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way to visit. read more

Stopped by after an appointment I had in the area and looked pretty solid from pictures. Ordered the pick two with pastrami lox and salmon roe on an everything bagel. Was a little pricey but overall the flavor, texture and quality was there. The pastrami was lacking a bit in flavor but the salmon roe made up for it. Awesome salmon flavor, clean, a little bit of wasabi, and some herbs. Also got a cold brew coffee! Was easy to order at the counter, sit down, eat, and leave read more

I've been following them since their popup days, but the schedule never worked out for me. I was so happy to see they opened up a store front. My husband and I shared: - Open Face Sandwich on a Rosemary Bagel with half Nova Lox and half Plum Jam - Bacon, Egg, and Cheese on a Furikake Bagel with Calabrian Chili Cream Cheese These are some of the best bagels I've ever had. I love that they season the entire bagel so there is no bad side. I also love that they have some more unique flavors. The Calabrian Chili Cream Cheese is incredible and made the BEC bagel even better. I think that was my overall favorite, but everything was fantastic. We got there a few minutes before they open and there was a line of 15 or so people. It moved fast though--we probably waited for 15-20 minutes total between the line and waiting for our food to be ready after ordering. I don't think I'll go anywhere else in Denver for bagels anymore. read more

Get the hamachi sandwich on a furikake bagel - it's delicious!! Perfect texture on the bagels - chewy inside and just slightly crunchy on the outside. The flavor of the bagel and the toppings on the hamachi are amazing!! We also tried the pastrami lox (which is salmon just seasoned and smoked) and the whitefish and would rank Hamachi, Pastrami, the Whitefish. All were delicious! Inside has bar seating (maybe 6 or so seats) and a 4 seater table and there are 3 small patio tables. People coming and going, this place is busy and rightfully so! Check them out! Can't wait to come back! read more
There's a new bagel shop in town, and it's already become my favorite! Chef Miles trained in Japan, and you can see it in his technique and ingredients. Fresh wasabi on top of hamachi on a bagel? Mind blown PLUS, they're opening for dinner soon, and you better believe I'll be there! What I ordered: I tried their open-faced sandwiches like the lox, pastrami lox, plum jam, vegan, white fish, salmon roe & hamachi PLUS a bacon, egg & cheese bagel sandwich. Just a light breakfast! Best bite: Everything was amazing, but the hamachi bagel was outstanding! A combo I'd never think to try but now can't get enough of. The bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich? Absolutely delicious with the perfect melted cheese. And the pastrami lox is something everyone should experience. I could go on, but you need to try it yourself. Just a heads up...they do sell out, so get there early! M read more

You absolutely must come here for their sushi dinner! Truly exceptional and unique flavors. read more
Odell's is popular for a reason! Fresh New York style bagels meet Japanese flavors for a fun weekend breakfast. I got the half pastrami lox on sesame + Calabrian chili cream cheese on the other half. The pastrami lox was not too salty, and the ingredients were very fresh. The BEC on plain was hot and melty. Their eggs are exceptionally fluffy and creamy. Be prepared for a 20ish minute wait on the weekends! read more

I couldn't wait to try Odell's when it opened! We went on their 3rd weekend in the brick and mortar location. I was pleasantly surprised when there was no line and we were able to snag one of a handful of tables along the sidewalk. The space itself is clean and the decor is fun. We ordered a vegan bagel with regular cream cheese as well as the Jam one. I love an open face bagel and wish this style was more common. My only reluctance to recommend this place is that so much of the menu is fish forward and they don't do lattes - just drip and cold brew. As much as I enjoy raw fish and sushi, I'm not yet sold on having hamachi or roe on my bagel. I will definitely be back to try one of the breakfast sandwiches! read more

Such a cool spot. Love the freshness of the seafood and the bagels were amazing. Not too pricey for the quality of food read more
Honestly, one of the most delicious bagels I've eaten! So good, I came back the next day! The furikake bagel was an instant fave. Love, love, loved it with the salmon roe. Also tried the onion bagel on my second trip, as they were out of the furikake. Tried this with the hamachi, which was also excellent. Workers are also super friendly and helpful! This place is so, so good, and I can't wait to be back! read more
Chewy bagel achieved! Open just four weeks, thrilled to have another bagel shop in Denver that accomplishes a perfect texture, a generous shmear, and interesting flavors, like a furikake bagel and chili garlic cream cheese. I heard "pastrami lox" after we had ordered and will be back for this alone. The interior space is very trendy coffee shop, though limited counter top seating, which works really well. You can tell the chef really cares for his craft, having studied culinary in Japan. The plan is to eventually have small curated dinners featuring fish and Japanese flavors. There is even a little dry goods nook, including canned fish and their fish/bagel decorated ceramic mug that they serve their drip in. read more

There's a reason why many people say Odell's has the best bagels in Denver. It's because they are delicious. And the proof is in the line that forms before they even open. Surprisingly, while the line is long the wait is not. My wife and I waited about 15 minutes before we got our food. We shared a rosemary bagel with nova lox and scallion cream cheese, rosemary bagel with plum jam and plain cream cheese, and a furikake bagel with bacon, egg, cheese, and calabrian chili cream cheese. I was blown away by everything but the BEC bagel was exceptionally good. I think it has something to do with that calabrian cream cheese. As for ambiance, it's a young, hip restaurant. Wood countertops with artistic cartoon drawings on the walls. Many people wearing beanies. You know the vibe. read more
Got these sandwiches this morning and Was super excited to try it! They just opened and just started doing sandwiches (today..? Idk), so I'm giving it a 3/5 because I know there's a ton of room for improvement and things to workout! The "egg sandwiches" are $10.5 and then $12.5 if you want to add bacon. I think that's steep, but I digress. The inside of the shop is really nice and new but with a comfy bakery feel. The staff were super nice and friendly and I didn't think the wait was too long (about 15 mins) given how busy it was. There's a bit of an "open concept" to the layout of the shop so you can basically watch them make each sandwich which was cool, btw the open face sandwiches with the lox looked KILLER. Didn't order them tho, maybe next time. I think the bagel itself was a 4/5, being from the east coast I really miss good bagel and I didn't think these were too far off. I want to try one with just cream cheese next time for the real feel. The sandwich was decent, I think if they want to up-charge $2 for bacon they should add more bacon. We got 4 sandwiches and the amount of egg was different on each one (as you can see in the pic)! I know that's nitpicking, but just an honest review! I think there's a lot of room for growth here and I am excited to see how it develops! Pumped to go back! read more

Bagels 10/10 most flavorful bagels I have had in Denver. It was cool to see them making fresh in their open kitchen. I did an online order (thankfully) very limited seating & parking. My boyfriend had to drive around the dead end while I went inside. No one acknowledged me when I walked in and went up to the online order sign that read either go to cashier or one of our team members will serve you. So after letting a few people go to the cashier and waiting to see if anyone would help me, I then asked the cashier for our online order and she looked like I was inconveniencing her. I got a hot coffee and my boyfriend got a cold brew and we did not enjoy either of those. So id definitely just recommend the bagels! read more

Came for breakfast on Sunday and it was expectedly busy, but we got through the line and our food pretty quickly. There's not a ton of seating inside, but it was nice outside and we were able to snag a table outside. My husband ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, I got one half salmon roe, one half hamachi salad (they ran out of whitefish and I was fine with the substitute). I've had a lot of bagels in Denver, but these might just be my favorite. The texture is phenomenal and the toppings were SO good. They can get pricey, but at least the quality is great and worth it imo! read more

The moment I stumbled across this place I knew it was going to be great! I had the seasonal cold brew coffee which was delicious. The bagels are made daily and you can watch them baking, plus it smells amazing! You just get the Lox!! They carve the salmon right in front of you, soo tasty! read more

Wow what an amazing bagel and such a cute little place on the corner and can see the kitchen. Really yummy bagel not sure if I would get again. 18 bucks for a bagel but it is totally worth the try and experience read more
Back again to try new flavors. If you still haven't been to Odell's then I don't know what you're doing with your life. The lines have settled down a bit for a Saturday morning at 10am. Still had all options left. I ordered all half sandwiches on furikake bagel - tuna soy - white fish - nova lox - salmon roe When I tell you the tuna soy is insanely good I mean it. I started laughing when I took a bite because what the heck??? Not too salty from the soy and not too fishy. Perfect bite and softness. White fish is great with the dill on the bagel. Nice smooth consistency. Nova lox as well has a great salmon flavor without being fishy. Capers give it the nice salty touch to it without it being overpowered. The salmon roe is one of my favorites as it will always be something I enjoy even outside of bagels. Not so salty roe goes well with its base. Little hints of real wasabi (not spicy, real wasabi doesn't give you that nasal burn) Big shoutout to chef because you guys know what you're doing read more

I am legitimately unsure if it is even possible to improve on this bagel. I didn't even know bagels could even get this good. What the hell? Cute location with a very open vibe, nice outdoor seating, friendly service, surprisingly chill for an incredible bagel place at 10:00am on a Friday morning. read more
Odell's is a cute bagel shop with friendly service. I ordered the Nova Lox on an onion bagel. The bagel and cream cheese were excellent! I would say I have had better lox bagels in Denver that were slightly less expensive. Overall, a great option if in the area. read more

I went around 8am on a Sunday and it wasn't busy at all, which was nice. Small menu, which is also a plus when the restaurant knows what they are doing. They have multiple types of bagels. They only offer a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. No sausage or ham. Their lox did look very good. Cold brew was on point. read more

Holy Moly! I've had NY bagels. This bagel was INSANE! I got the salmon roe and the pastrami lox on furikake bagel. So.Damn.Good. I will be dreaming about them until I can make it back. Still pretty new so line is a bit long and slow on weekends but worth it! Space is beautiful. read more
I've never thought to put salmon roe on a bagel, and having it here for the first time was delicious. While it's a pretty damn good bagel, it's not the best bagel I've ever had to justify the pricing. Honestly, if the prices weren't so high, I'd probably frequent this place more often but my order of one half pastrami lox, one half salmon roe on an everything bagel and a cup of cold brew ended up being a little over $30 with tip. That's just too much for a smaller than average bagel with meh portions of lox. However, I do appreciate the wider variety of hot sauces they provide to top off your bagel. Inside is a clean & small space with a couple of tables and some counter seating as well, but I saw plenty of people just come and grab some bagels to-go so there was plenty of seating available even during a Saturday lunch rush. read more

What Odell's shows us is that it is possible to make a proper bagel in Denver. We can no longer accept any excuses about water being different on the east coast. This is objectively the best bagel in town. I have tried them all. Great job, guys. You nailed it. However, will I ever again wait 35 minutes for a bagel and cream cheese? No. The staff move at a glacial pace. I think it was easily 2 minutes between each order being called. We got in line and there were 8 or so people in front and we figured we'd wait 10 minutes. Nope. The bagels and cream cheese are $5. Fine. This appears to be the standard in town. However, the bagels are small (see photo) and at least with the scallion cream cheese, it was extremely thin and runny and frankly flavorless. It might be worth it to just grab some fresh bagels ($3/each, $30/dozen) and buy your own cream cheese. read more

Had to come back the next day it was so good. Had the pick 2 open face rosemary bagel with Hamachi and Hamachi Collar salad, and the next day furikake with salmon roe and hamachi. Absolutely incredible presentation and flavor combinations. The bagels are top quality with unique flavor offerings and I can't wait to go back. read more

Best bagels in Denver by a landslide. I had the salmon roe and orange marmalade and both were as close to perfect as you can get. My boyfriend tried a bacon egg cheese which was good but maybe nothing special at least compared to everything else. He also tried the the hamachi bagel which was extraordinary! We will absolutely be back anytime we want exceptional bagels. read more

This bagel changed my brain chemistry. Honestly when I ordered the bagel I didn't look at the price so when I was charged $15 I was a little taken aback. But when I took my first bite I understood why it cost so much. Like it was overwhelmingly fresh. The bagel was the perfect density and the onion was not overpowering. The cream cheese was pristine. The tomato's with the chili oil and scallions was quite literally perfect. This taste like it was made by a Michelin star chef... I never knew such a basic meal could taste so perfect read more

Most definitely the best bagel in Denver! Their housemade lox are to die for and you can do half and half -- I got the homemade plum jam on the other half and it was so darn good. Awesome flavors of bagels (rosemary is my favorite) and interesting specials each weekend as well. Highly recommend! Food: 5 read more
