Coming from NYC If I were asked what would you call a bagel spot comparable to New York's best? I would answer "They would be a Rockstar!" Which is what Rockstar Bagels is! Best Bagel & Lox south of Manhattan. You may say Bagel & Lox is easy to make. Not really- you can mess up Bagel & Lox Easy. These guys and gals do it perfectly and consistently! It is my go to Austin Bagel shop - none are comparable. read more

Very cute little place with a variety of outdoor seating. Service was very quick and since it was my first time the cashier helped me with selecting some choices for my bagel sandwich which I really appreciated. I got the breakfast rockstar sandwich on a rosemary salt bagel with bacon, american cheese and avocado as well as a cold brew coffee with sugar free vanilla syrup. I would order the coffee again and the sandwich too but I would choose a different type of bagel next time. The amount of salt is a bit overwhelming especially when the contents were salty too. I should have went with a plain or a blueberry to balance sweet and savory in taste but lessons learned ( it is in the name of the bagel anyway, I guess I was just expecting a bit less salt haha). I would go back and I do recommend it to others. It's a great little bagel spot :) read more

9/10! It was my first time having a lox bagel so I was really excited about it. It was delicioussss! My server Madison was super helpful I told her it was my first time and we talked through the item a bit together. Great recommendations. I most likely won't go back a bunch because of the price being $13 but it was good for my first try! read more

Ordered delivery from Uber eats at the rockstar with jalapeño cheddar bagel, sausage, cheddar cheese and chive cream. Cheese bagel was perfectly soft and dough and the Trivail cream cheese was just a perfect couch and a happy camper and ready in fueled for the day. Thank you! read more

This was $8. That's the extent of my review, but I'll add more for yelp. For $8 do we think we could have at least taken 7-10 seconds to spread the jam? Maybe that's asking too much or you have to pay extra for that. read more

Rockstar Bagels - Bagels Near Me - Austin, Texas

Rockstar Bagels has been rising to the occasion since 2009 with their malt-boiled bagels that positively shine in the early morning light. They're the first local bagel to grace my table since they're available at Wheatsville a la carte for mere pocket change. These plump rings sport an elegantly lacquered finish with a topping that tends to skew heavier on sesame seeds, enhancing the nutty, toasted flavor. Maybe that's why I find them more compelling once split and toasted than simply warmed. Bulk bin grocery store bagels have questionable quality, even if they're locally made, so always go to their walk-up window for the best, freshest batches. read more

I've been dreaming of this rosemary bagel ever since... Amazing fresh bagels and great schmear options! They have a cute little walk up window with limited parking and seating. The cold brew was fine, I just wish they had different sweetener/syrup options. Great service and not a bad wait at all. read more

Rockstar Bagels - Rosemary bagel with veggie cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - Austin, Texas

And they were OK bagels nothing to rave about. I'm not sure it would be a place. I'm eager to come back to considering nothing memorable was about the quality of the bagel. It just didn't seem great to me or to the point of a good quality bagel. read more

Really good bagels and breading! And I'm not saying this cause they played Ozzy all morning If you get here before 10/11 in the morning the service is pretty quick. After that it gets packed and seats are limited. The parking lot is also pretty small. Short prisus will risk skidding their bumpers for sure. The bagel sandwiches themselves are pretty large and packed full of ingredients. Definitely worth stopping by even for a morning drink. read more

I've heard about this place many times that their bagels are great. I finally went in to try it myself and it was GOOD. No, DAMN GREAT! Probably even better than stuff I had in New York. I had The Veggie Heaven with Lox added on an everything bagel with plain cream cheese and, although messy, I enjoyed every bite of it. They're very generous on all ingredients and it felt like I could have split it with somebody if I wasn't starving. The staff was really chill and helpful, our food was ready in no time. We came around when it was slower but it quickly got busy and they had a line. There's a couple of outside tables and high top seats outside, no indoor seating. Parking is very limited and you gotta be careful of pulling on a sedan from Chicon St., heard multiple cars making scraping noises when trying to "conquer" the bump between the street and the parking spaces. read more

Decent bagel spot, but didn't wow me. I placed an online order and it was ready within 20 minutes. This is a little outdoor spot with a few tables outside. We decided to just eat in the car with how hot it was. I ordered "The Rockstar" on a jalapeno cheddar bagel with egg, cheddar cheese, no meat and chive cream cheese. The bagel itself didn't have a jalapeno cheddar flavor to it. I couldn't see any jalapeños in there, and it felt mostly like a plain bagel unfortunately. The sandwich had way too much cream cheese, and I specifically requested light cream cheese. The chive flavor tasted really delicious, but was too much. I enjoyed the egg and it was well seasoned. My boyfriend ordered "The Rockstar" on an everything bagel with egg, bacon, sausage, provolone cheese, and lettuce. He said the bagel tasted way too salty, and with the seasoning in the egg it was too much. His bagel felt too eggy with the amount they put inside. He enjoyed the bacon and sausage in it. Our total for these 2 bagels was $23.27. Overall decent spot, but not the best bagel I've had in Austin. read more

This is the kind of Austin place that you're glad your buddy tells you about. It's a hidden gem, but you make it your life goal to publicize about it once you've experienced it. Oddly enough I was on the lookout for a new bagel place and I think this just filled the space. I have never had brisket with a bagel before and now I don't think I can have it either way. read more

Outside counter with a solid selection of high quality bagels, spreads, and bagel sandwiches. Only have ~2 picnic tables for seating, but it looked like they had a booming take-away business (with a large chunk of people ordering ahead of time to pick-up) It took a while for my bagel and cream cheese to be prepared (~15 min), which was a long time given the simplicity of the order. I got a rosemary salt bagel with strawberry cream cheese, and it was all delicious, but there was WAY too much cream cheese. It was falling out of the bagel en-masse. Have a selection of coffee as well read more

Perfect for a bagel to go or a great hang over cure. Every time I've gone the bagel is nothing short of delicious! I love a good bagel and cream cheese! The ordering process is super easy whether in person or online. Love ROCKSTAR! read more

Rockstar Bagels was delicious!!! Bagels are boiled and baked same day and maintains the freshness and bounciness whenever you order your food. We ordered the everything bagel, sesame bagel, and the jalapeno cheddar bagel. All very impressive. My favorite part of the order though- the peach basil schmear. Insane!!! Thats one thing I love about rockstar, that they aren't afraid to get creative with their flavors. Honestly, this place is fantastic for being in Austin. I only gave it 4 because it can't quite compare to New York bagels yet, but nonetheless, very good. Service was fast, and there are plenty of outdoor seats if you wanted to enjoy your bagel there! read more

Went to rockstar last week and my experience was incredible. Bagels were delicious. Perfectly cooked and super fresh ingredients Service was SPECTACULAR. The front girl Morgan welcomed me with a smile and was super friendly despite having a line of people behind me. Some of the best service I've received. I will be back !!!! Thank you for making my visit so enjoyable ! read more

Rockstar has really good bagels, always fresh and nice and chewy. I've mostly eaten there around lunch time so I've tried a bunch of different sandwich combos. All have been really good. They make a really good whole wheat bagel and the rosemary salt bagel is a nice change of pace . Staff is always friendly. Highly recommended. read more

While I was visiting Austin recently I had the immense craving for a lox bagel and found rockstar Bagels, not only with stellar reviews, but also a BYOLox option - Say less! Due to some in climate weather and being in town without a car, I opted to UberEats, so I can't speak on the vibe or space itself unfortunately. I went with a black iced coffee and an everything bagel with chive cream cheese, tomato, red onion, capers, arugula and of course lox! Each vegetable is 50 cents. I then had the option to make it open face for an additional fee. Which I thought was sort of weird, but do understand it may include more toppings and I find it much easier to eat so went for it! Upon delivery the order was packaged well for transport. Iced coffee was solid, the lox bagel itself was good, but the toppings were inconsistent. They had all of topping on half, such as the arugula and tomato, onion and capers, while the other half had only onions and capers. I thought that was sort of odd and don't really understand what the additional charge covered. Overall the bagel was tasty and flavorful, generous schemas and fresh ingredients. I would order again and of course much better value and experience eating on site then ordering through third party. read more

10 out of 10! I needed a quick 2 dozen order of bagels for a club meeting (last minute). They had them ready in 8mins!!!! The two ladies that helped me out gave me an extra spread since I was indecisive. Thank you! Pro tip the Chive spread was the most popular! read more

I really wanted to love this place! We just moved to the city and love bagels. I got an everything bagel with chive cream cheese and my husband got a rosemary salt bagel with chive cream cheese. We ordered around 10 on a Sunday morning and waited about 30 minutes for 2 bagels and cream cheese, which seemed a little long. There seemed to be a lot of online orders. The bagels themselves were fine. Not enough seasoning on top for my taste, but the texture was good. The cream cheese was really wet- I'm not sure why but it made for a very messy experience. Personally, I'll give them another try because I want to support local businesses, but I wasn't super impressed this time. read more

Rockstar Bagels - Everything bagel with vegan cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is my go to spot for my Wednesday morning kayaking sessions. I stop by and get a Rosemary and Salt bagel with veggie cream cheese on the side. I come so much the young lady just hands me my bagel when I show up. (I order on the Toast app) The bagel is a great snack to give me a boost of energy. The bagels are firm but chewy. (Reminds me of my time in NYC) My favorites are of course Rosemary and Salt and Jalenpeno Cheddar. They also make a great BLT and breakfast sandwiches. I'm so happy they survived COVID. I miss the bagel pizzas tho! The service and the food is consistently great. read more

I've had the chance of stopping by Rockstar every time I'm in Austin that it has beckme a staple. I got the Members Only with a jalapeño cheddar bagel and it was fantastic as always.

Fantastic bagel. I ordered delivery and it wasn't soggy or anything. Still crisp and wonderful. Ordered from here while in Austin on business and would definitely order again! Very easy to customize what you want. Which is great for someone like me with allergies. read more

The person at the window is so cool, I just loooove her, but the bagel quality was not that great today? Weird because Rockstar usually is fire in bagel quality? The cream cheese is what kind of felt like too much for shmear results, combined with Strawberry jam? I did like their upcycling of that intersection, or at least that one corner? but recently assholes of the whitewashing try to buy breakfast too from there....Jesus Christ burning at the stake please force them to respect my boundaries as a lady. I will never be racist. I don't like those jerks. read more

I consider myself a bit of a bagel connoisseur and always seek out a bagel with vegan cream cheese while traveling. I must say the bagels do rock, however, the vegan chive cream cheese was not my favorite. Not bad, just not amazing. I am always grateful when there's an option and even more excited when it's not just a plain cream cheese. If I had to guess it was coconut oil based. There was a sign indicating how long the wait would be, which I appreciated as it was 30+ minutes. Nice little walk up spot, but I highly recommend ordering for pickup online. read more

This place is very cute and staffs are nice.. the biggest issue is the bagels arent great. Got the rockstar with sausage and tomato/spinach on an everything bagel and cheese. The filling was bland and bagel was underwhelming - soggy due to the ingredients being steamed in the packaging. I had to add sriracha on the sandwich because of how bland it was... My first bagel experience in Austin and was disappointed read more

If you are in a rush I highly recommend ordering online!! We were and didn't and it was a 20-25 minute wait for all of the breakfast sandwiches. I got the rockstar on a jalapeño cheddar bagel with bacon and added red onions. I loved how much egg they gave you. And the bagel was soft. I wish it had been a little spicier but it was good. read more

Stopped by Rockstar Bagels in Austin and was seriously impressed. I tried a blueberry bagel with bacon and peanut butter cream cheese--sounds wild, but it was absolutely amazing. The sweet and savory combo hit perfectly. I also had a cinnamon bagel with strawberry cream cheese, and it was just as delicious. Everything was super fresh and flavorful. If you're in Austin and love unique bagel combos, this place is a must-try. Highly recommend! Will be coming here when i come from houston all the time! -Jason read more

love the bagels here, the bread is always fresh and really good. Even though the egg portion seems to have decreased quite a bit (it feels like about half of what it used to be). This is also the second time I've paid for cream cheese on the side and only received a knife, with the cream cheese missing. It's especially disappointing because I really love the chive cream cheese. Overall, I enjoy the food, but it's frustrating when my order arrives incomplete. :/ read more

I got the rosemary salt bagel with chive cream cheese. Super good! I'm giving 4 stars because it wasn't anything out of the ordinary. If you like a true toasted bagel maybe ask for extra toasted? The flavor of the rosemary salt bagel was really good but could have been stronger. The staff was SO nice. Everyone is particular about their ratios with cream cheese and I'll say they don't give you a lot of cream cheese which I think is fine. read more

Truly so yummy. Came here before heading to the airport and they were speedy and kind. They don't have a drive through though it's listed on Yelp but I just ran out of my car to grab what I needed. Their coffee is tasty but you really go here for the bagels themselves they are superstars (get it rockstar is the name) They were savory and I had half of mine 5 hours later on the plane and it was still incredible, soft and toasted with the best flavor. read more
