It was ok. We're in the area visiting and a bagel sounded good. Randy ordered the Jawn Boi on a Parmesan bagel and I got the standard with bacon on the onion bagel. My bacon was quite fatty making it pretty much inedible - I took most of it off. We enjoyed the schmear and the bagels were ok. We thought they lacked flavor. Service was great. We sat at tables out front and that was nice. read more

Got a salt bagel and a breakfast bagel. Really nice portions. The garlic and herb cream cheese had a really strong dill taste. So if you like pickles this would be perfect for you. Cashier was super helpful since it was our first time. read more

Very good bagels, the kind you dream about. Crunch on the outside soft in the inside. They always have awesome flavors to choose from. My favorite is the Bagel Bagel sandwich and its flavors are perfectly balanced. It's a little pricey so I don't suggest a weekly or monthly visit. And my one peeve about this place is that they have a ton of plants and most of them are barely hanging on to life. They are selling spider plants in tiny pots for $16. Yikes guys. Also the tipping on the POS starts at %25. They don't buss your table or deliver your food so your tipping is to basically say "thanks for standing there punching in my order". Tipping in Bellingham is out of control. I suggest paying your employees better if they "need the dough". read more

Pretty darn good sandwich and drink offerings. Staff is friendly and helpful in ordering. I opted for a 'build your own sandwich' and it added up pretty quick...the red onion slices could be a little thicker, given the fact that each add on is $1.oo. I wish I took a photo. You could almost see through the onion it was sliced so thin. read more

Savory bagels with nice subtle tones of flavors depending on which kind of bagel you order. Nice atmosphere in the restaurant with relevant rock music that takes you back to the 90s and 2000s. Good location. read more

took a really long time for two bagels but they tasted good and the ambiance in the store is great

We did a mobile order from Otherside Bagel. It was a great to-go option since we had a long day ahead of us. We didn't get to spend too much time in the shop since we only had a take out order, but I would've loved to stay and enjoy my bagel here. The shop has a cute diner-ish vibe with photos & plants thoughtfully placed throughout. I can't say too much about the service but I can only assume it would be great. A staff member cheerfully greeted us & she also complimented my jacket which I thought was really sweet of her. Our mobile order was ready right when the ordering system said it would.. so all good things basically lol. Onto the food.. The bagels were really good! I got the NW smoke - it was filled with a flavorful herb shmear & smoked salmon. My only complaint was that it was pretty salty. Maybe it's just the smoked salmon itself, since my friend who got the Salmon Classic said the same thing. Other members in our group had the Bagel Bagel which was SUPER good (and not salty). It was loaded with tons of flavor & had a slight spicy kick to it. I wish I got that instead. Still overall I think it was a solid breakfast choice & would highly recommend eating in to enjoy the cute atmosphere! read more

TL;DR cute cafe with nice workers that serves up good breakfast sandwiches and drinks. We went around brunch time (I think around 11am) and it wasn't super busy. They have a nice clean inside with friendly staff. We ordered drinks and bagels and everything was great. We didn't have to wait very long for the food to come out. The sandwiches were filling and the chai latte was flavorful. I also had the electric mud which was a nice balance between the dark chocolate and the coffee flavor. Definitely would recommend. read more

I am not a connoisseur of bagels. I only eat them occasionally. Therefore my following comments are offered as coming from a "novice". Upon entering, I observed a tidy, clean comfortable space. Approaching the counter, I was greeted by a smiling, friendly, helpful employee. I opted for the "Monthly Special". The aforementioned, friendly employee happily offered that The Monthly Special was one of their "most popular orders". As a person with minimal bagel experience, how could I argue? I ordered the Monthly Special. I turned and found a comfortable table. Literally, only a couple minutes later, another smiling, friendly helpful employee delivered my order. I enjoyed the bagel. It was fresh, tasty and well... boring. Personally, I enjoy food with a little more excitement. This was a nice offering, but just not to my personal taste. I will definitely visit this store again. I will just select my choices with a little more adventure. read more

New Favorite Bellingham spot I was in town so I stopped by to try it out and now it's become a reason to go to Bellingham. First of all, the bagels are DELICIOUS. Chewy, soft, and crispy in all the right places. I had the salmon schmear and it didn't disappoint. Generous portions topped off with a made-in-house pickle that could be a destination pickle for the pickiest of pickle eaters. There are some creative coffee options and not-your-standard cold drinks in the fridge. Secondly, the place is roomy, comfortable, welcoming, and (a favorite for me) features work of local artists. It's a great spot to bring friends and have a conversation you can actually hear! And finally the staff is friendly and attentive. Bonus, easy street parking. Can't wait to go back and see what's new on the menu. read more

Grabbed bagel sandwiches and coffees from this spot before hitting the road back to Seattle. They were open early and had a very "college campus" feel to their spot. Prices were reasonable and everything exactly as described. Was it the best bagel this New Yorker has ever had? No. Was it perfectly fine? Absolutely. Easy to park on the street right outside. read more

I always enjoy the cinnamon sugar bagel while my husband enjoys a breakfast sandwich bagel. The bagels are nice and chewy, and fairly cheap. I would say the one downfall would be the consistency. Sometimes I get no toppings, while other times it's too much sugar on top. I have also tried the coffee on multiple occasions (americanos) and have always been sadly disappointed by a very sour, bitter flavor. Otherwise I love the bagels and online ordering option. read more

We got the hammer sandwich to share. It was loaded with meat and not too oily which was nice. The bagel itself was also very delicious. I did think it was a bit pricey for what you get but the taste was pretty good. We also got four bagels for the road and we've eaten them over the last several days and they were all very delicious! read more

I think that this place is a bit pricey for a bagel place, but there's not much other to expect in Bellingham nowadays and with rising prices in general. I liked the bagels a lot, but my veggie sandwich was super heavy on the microgreens! I thought it was super cute inside and the staff was super friendly. I will probably return, but I would rather get a bagel cheaper somewhere else. read more

Very good friendly service, a big space to sit and have a nice breakfast or to hang out for a while. I got the NW Smoke (add salmon) bagel and it was absolutely DELICIOUS. We also got the Pauli-Boy which was a bit bland so I can't recommend it much, but you can't win them all. My only real complaint is that the bagels are on the smaller side compared to what I normally expect from a fresh baked bagel. read more

Meh. I usually don't like comparing one place to another but in my opinion, the nearby Bagelry is better by a LONG mile. And I think the standard they set for Bellingham bagels made this place pale in comparison. I can forgive high prices if the food is good. But $8.00 for a tiny bagel with very underwhelming toppings is kinda pushing it for me. I've tried it twice and was just as underwhelmed each time, even after trying vastly different bagels and flavors. It's just okay. And again, the Bagelry nearby is what I'd consider the Rolls Royce of Bellingham bagels. Otherside bagels is a used Toyota. read more

Bottom line... the bagels are great! Brand spanking new (3 days) they really have it all together. The selection was still good at 1pm on a Sunday (they close at 3pm) which is often not the case at other bagel establishments. A nice selection of spreads and sandwich options... and their open to custom requests. Now if we could only get a Jewish style deli her in Bellingham I'll be fulfilled (and filled)! read more

GREAT BAGELS and bagel sandwich offerings! I had the "Salmon Classic" (a Bagel w/ Lox and Dill Cream Cheese smear on a toasted Herb & Salt Bagel). The Lox was fresh, expertly sliced and was presented topped w/ sliced red onions, capers, and fresh dill. My wife had the "Jawn-Boi" (a Bagel w/ Bacon, Sausage, Fried Egg and Sharp Cheddar on a toasted Herb & Salt Bagel). Both bagel sandwiches were Excellent, and the portion size was very good - we did not leave hungry! We just had to buy a half dozen bagels to go! I wish we lived closer (we live 46 miles away) but we will definitely be back. read more

Otherside is our top choice for bagels in town. They're a little pricier than other options, but I prefer the texture and flavor of these bagels. I also prefer a bagel sandwich to a bagel and schmear, so the plethora of sandwich options at Otherside is a HUGE plus for me. We've tried probably 2/3 of the menu and everything is good. Our favorites are anything with the pastrami (Reuben, pauliboy etc) and the bagel bagel is just fun with the hash brown inside. I also enjoy that they offer lotus energy drinks and you can mix the bases and add a POG topper! read more

We got the lox and an assortment of bagels to bring home. Both the plain and garlic herb schmears we got were delicious. The lox bagel sandwich was amazing with plenty of salmon, thin tomatoes, capers and onions that didn't overpower everything else. Also, they sprinkled it with fresh dill! It was great. The Cortado we got was amazing and the cold brew was strong and tasty. The atmosphere was spot on. Clean and comfortable with plenty of space to enjoy yourself. 11/10 will be back. read more

Bagels are great and the drip coffee is top notch. After being a barista in Seattle for almost a decade I have decided on my favorite local coffee shop after moving to Bellingham. Thank you for the amazing treats! The lighting is just right for studying as well. read more

Super cool place but ended up being very disappointed. I paid $12 for a bagel sandwich that was tiny and was pretty lackluster. With the bagelry right down the road, you are much better off going there and paying $10 for a bagel sandwich, chips and a pickle. The prices at Otherside are outrageous for what it is. The bagel itself was honestly pretty dry and did not taste as good as the bagelry. I don't think I will be coming back unfortunately. read more

I was excited to try this out and can't wait to come back and try other sandwiches. Compared to the bagelry, these bagels seem a little more chewy when toasted -but still sooo delicious. I had the Lox bagel sandwich on poppyseed and had the bagel toasted. The lemon dill schmear was fresh and delicious. I really enjoyed my bagel! I'm excited to see how Otherside operates throughout the summer and beyond! Oh, also I wish they had an egg bagel (always the first thing I look for at a bagel place- sooo good.) read more

My husband and I got the "Cascadian", and it was very tasty!! I would come here again on my next trip to Bellingham!!

Good bagel but I'm always disappointed when the cashiers don't ask if I want my bagel toasted. I feel like it's a given that bagels should be toasted before being served. But not even offering me the option was annoying. Other than that it was a good bagel though, I got the NW smoke. read more
