Excellent bagels and quick service…read more We got everything bagels, sesame, poppyseed and garlic all of our favorites My husband also got 3 containers of chive cream cheese

Lots of downfalls upon my visit here…read more Most importantly, stale bagels. I ordered two breakfast bagels (egg, cheese, sausage), a plain bagel with cream cheese, and a lox bagel and two mini plain bagels for my kids. Not one person enjoyed their bagel. It was extra chewy, dry, and absolutely tasteless. The lox was forgettable. The cream cheese was good, but that was it. Add on a very long wait time for a line that wasn't very long and less than friendly service and that leads to this low review. The only perk was the parking lot and arriving early on a Wednesday left ample parking. Will definitely try out another option next time we want bagels.

Amazing bagels & selection…read more The seasonal fruit & prosciutto was amazing, also tried the veggie with lox added. Our waitress was also really helpful in suggesting bagel & cream cheese pairings.

Very little seating and they have a stand up counter to eat at. Place was dirty and flies were on the wall. Their bagels were not to my liking. They were not dense and chewy like I like them. They were not chewy and had a lot of air holes. Also, it was kind of expensive for the quality.

I had to get food, (particularly chicken soup) for a sick friend of mine who was stuck in a hotel…read morein Chicago and it was very hard to find a place that had chicken soup who would deliver it to the hotel. (I am in Las Vegas ) Unfortunately the delivery service the Deli usually uses quits before 2:30 and so I couldn't get it delivered. I called the Deli to ask if they had a different service and the owner said, he would take it there himself to my sick friend THAT KIND OF ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT IS WHAT WE NEED MORE OF! Small businesses give a damn and I love that this owner was kind enough to go all the way over to the Warwick Allerton to personally deliver her chicken soup and tuna, which by the way she said was absolutely fabulous!! When given an option I will pick a small business over corporate America any day... And this owner just gave me another good reason why. Kudos to a business owner with pride and concern.

I grabbed a pastrami, egg and swiss on a plain bagel.. It was perfection, like they wrote the manual, like I was in midtown manhattan! The bagel was warm and crisp and soft and the pastrami was marbled and rich. There's only about five tables in the place. The staff is friendly. Awesome little deli!

I loved CBA!!!! they have a HUGE menu, which I feel like is not always the case at a bagel place. I…read moreespecially loved that the menu was organized by type of protein and had a veggie section. I created my own and just got cream cheese, tomato, sprouts and cucumber. My family got a loaded breakfast sandwich with ham, bacon, egg and cheese. The bagels were super soft all around and they had a lot of different kinds + a variety of cream cheeses. We went for lunch & they still had breakfast sandwiches available along with their lunch menu items which I loved. Can't wait to go back!!!!!

I love this place. I remember The Bagel from its former locations on Devon and at Old Orchard, but…read morethis one is hands down my favorite.

I think the sandwich bagels are just a bit eh but the bagel and cream cheese is much better and worth it Also this didn't affect my review but that pickle they give you is so strange! It was the saltiest pickle I've ever eaten. I think they soak it in soy sauce

I ended up waiting about 20 minutes, so they move through it quickly. The jalapeño cheddar bagel was amazing, easily the highlight of my visit. The Bageler original sandwich was fine, my only gripe is that I would have liked more egg it. The hashy, on the other hand, was sweet and really good. Prices were solid across the board. Next time I'm trying the sausage one.
