    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    Counter where you place your order

    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.

    A cinnamon sugar plain bagel. Only half the bagel is seasoned.

    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.

    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!

    Such tasty bagels!! The sandwich was toasted but not hard enough to where it scratched the roof of my mouth which was fantastic aha. Can't wait to return!

    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.

    Went for breakfast when visiting the area. The bagels were really good and so were the drinks. The feng shui was very nice and the overall vibe was so enjoyable. Service was good and the person helping us was so nice in making recommendations.

    Super delicious and nice inside. You can buy plants they have on display which is pretty cool.

Prices may seem high one month then you come in again and they don't seem so bad. They are not trying to gouge anyone, just run a business and that includes all the taxes, permits, licenses, insurance and properly paying their employees. They really do have a bend over backwards attitude towards just plain being kind, I've seen folks get rude and mean towards the employees and it's just wrong. Stop that be an adult. Order is messed up, they make it right I've seen and experienced that 100%. Buy a dozen bagels get a card punch. No, REALLY, get a punch card. Now that is said. I am a New Yorker. Don't try and tell me how my bagel is supposed to be. I know. There is a certain pull, and chew that is part of the experience while you savor the texture and seasoning involved. There should be a certain a la dente exterior texture from being boiled. THIS IS IT. There is no other. Pumpernickel bagels and an experience in themselves. I lean more towards the savory side with my bagels because a lot of time at home I make a lox sandwich. I can vouch for the lox spread, jalapeno spread and the highly under-rated cinnamon raisin walnut. The latter is definitely a treat and the former can apply to most bagels and bialys in a highly complementary fashion. The garlic bagel is made to only be toasted with butter, but sometimes I make a breakfast sandwich with them. I only like to go to establishments that have better food or convenience than what I can do at home. I still make my own bagels, because I can. If I could go to ONE place the rest of my life, this would be it. Bravo Bagelry for keeping up your time-honored traditions and being a cornerstone of what I know as Bellingham.

The bioluminescence drink is very aesthetic and drinks like a soda / energy drink, though it is a one and done for me as I don't feel the sparkles are the most healthy thing. The toasty marshmallow latte was a bit pricy at $7.50 but they had 3 pieces of toasted marshmallow that is perfect (s'mores like but not burnt) and there is a lot of drink. It was on the sweeter side for me. They have Cinnamon Toast Crunch on the side but it was a bit stale, but I won't be docking off a star as there's not much to it and everything else was delicious.

I've had lattes that tasted like lukewarm bean water and lattes that tasted like they were brewed by a robot with a grudge. But the latte I had at **Woods Coffee**? Pure, caffeinated magic. I'm pretty sure they didn't just steam milk; they whispered sweet nothings to it until it turned into silk.

They are so friendly and kind that I'm convinced they might actually be humanitarian saints working undercover in the coffee industry. **Full Disclosure:** During my visit, I encountered a brief personal complication regarding my payment. Usually, this results in a walk of shame out the door.

Their ability to prioritize the customer experience has made me a huge fan of the Woods Coffee brand as such humanitarian grace is rare in the service industry today.
