I loved the place's aesthetic; it truly captures the feel of a nice, no-frills NYC deli. The pricing felt a little high for the portion size of the breakfast sandwich, but not wildly unreasonable for a popular spot. I ordered the egg, cheese, and sausage on a cheddar jalapeño bagel. I'm admittedly picky when it comes to bagels as my family is from Jersey, so my standards are pretty set. While the bagel was good, it did feel a bit overhyped. As a visitor, I'm not sure what the local competition is like, but I was expecting more of that signature NY-style chewiness. Still, it was a solid option overall and clearly a fan favorite.

I love a place with multiple, vegan bagel sandwich options! I appreciate that they have an entire…read moresandwich designed as vegan (rather than simply a "vegan" version that removes cheese or uses fake meat). I've gotten three of their vegan bagel options, the vegan Kimchi Lox, the Lebanese Spicy Tofu, and the Vegan Bahn Mi. I think that the food isn't exceptional, but it's filling & again, they have some well done vegan options. The Lebanese Spicy Tofu was definitely the best of the three (but a big mess, beware!). The Vegan Bahn Mi (pictured) was good, but maybe a bit underseasoned. The vegan Kimchi Lox is of course also quite messy, but of course doesn't have any protein on it. In our experience, it's best to just order online, and then go pick it up at the time (due to the wait time). We will often get coffee at Liturgy or Foster, and then just walk over when it's time. It's inside Durham Food Hall, which is, unfortunately, always quite loud, but there are tables outside and a park nearby you can sit at if you'd prefer. Overall, one of the better vegan options in the food hall.

I've been to Everything Bagels on 3 separate occasions. *** Order online to limit your wait time *** *** Expect longer wait times on the weekends. The food is good, I normally order a French toast bagel with the blueberry cream cheese which... they didn't have on the menu this time around. I needed food before my work out today so I stopped in and got a French toast bagel with turkey and cheese with muscadine cream cheese. Good sandwich, I had a great workout. I gave it 4 stars because, I personally don't like the bagels sitting out in uncovered baskets.

This is the rancid bacon I was served this morning. Jacob, the manager, doesn't know what the word…read more"rancid" means. His simple ass kept asking me what was wrong with it and I had to break it down like I was talking to a toddler. He was also either sick at work or had put some snow up is nose, because he was sniffling and snorting every two seconds. They aren't concerned about selling spoiled meats, apparently. Jacob and May are absolutely worthless and one way or another, Bagelman is going to make you sick. Quick reminder of their Health Department violations: VIOLATIONS Proper cooling methods used; adequate equipment for temperature control Food separated & protected Physical facilities installed, maintained & clean Proper cold holding temperatures Handwashing sinks supplied & accessible Edit after Bagelman's response: I think the fact that they think this was just a complaint about their bacon shows that they genuinely don't comprehend food safety. And I absolutely told you what you could go do - this was after being told that you didn't understand what the problem was and I said that you need to check food quality because you're going to make people sick. Notice how I never asked for a refund? I was calling to keep you from making your customers sick, and taking ANY accountability was well beyond your capabilities. A decent business would be concerned with selling rancid products - and Jason didn't know the word "rancid", btw. You can literally see the photo. That isn't what bacon is supposed to look like, my guy. Worse, there's no way it didn't look or smell off before it was prepared and put on a sandwich. But by all means, respond with something else showing exactly how obtuse you are. And other customers: All of the violations listed are public record. They're literally available on this app.

Their bagels are wood fired so they're not your traditional style of bagels and are a bit harder and chewier. Their variety of cream cheese flavors is what really sets them apart in my opinion - they very dense and creamy. They also have a very unique menu with many different seasonal offerings that rotate frequently. Over the years, I've fine tuned down my order to a couple things each of which I think are 10/10 and some of the best breakfast options in Raleigh! - Grits bagel with dulce pecan or fruit cream cheese (I prefer the grits bagel over plain) - Poppy bagel with spiced honey cream cheese (warning the poppy bagel can be a little messy but worth it) - Breakfast sandwich with sausage and American cheese (sausage is the best - a little sweet and spicy) Every time I go, the staff is always very nice and provides quick service. It can be busy during the mornings and weekends, however they do offer online ordering where you can easily pick up your food and avoid the lines. This location is in transfer food hall, which has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, however they also have a new standalone location that recently opened. If you go to that location, I definitely recommend trying the coconut caramel latte!

I grew up in New England with killer bagels…read more. When you walk into the v place, you have high hopes, it smells like the bagel place you grew up with. They claim the bagels are made daily, they are!! Buy 12, get the bakers dozen.. everything was sounding and smelling great, until you get the bagels. Yes they are fresh and soft.. Until you cut your everything bagel, toast it and pretty much all the topping are gone. There were very few to start with abs by the time you prepare it, there's nothing left. It seems to be a common theme with all the bagels.. skimp on ingredients to make the bagel you order the bagel. They all end up close to a plain bagel after toasting and preparing them. Are they good, yes.. but for the value, I'll keep looking for my wake forest unicorn... a good bagel

I usually order delivery,…read moreso I can't speak much to the in-store experience, but the food itself consistently delivers. I'm pretty particular about bagels, and these absolutely hold up--great texture, a good chew, and generous toppings. They're perfect for grabbing a half dozen for the weekend (or to freeze for later), and they keep really well. They offer a solid lunch menu too. My husband is loyal to the Hungryman, which is massive and actually keeps him full for hours. One thing I really appreciate is that they don't skimp on the cream cheese with to-go orders, which feels rare these days. Overall, a reliable spot for a weekend treat or an easy brunch spread. The only reason it's not a full five stars is that I haven't experienced it in person yet--but based on the food alone, it's definitely worth checking out.

I ordered the roast beef and Swiss on sourdough, and my wife went with the chicken bacon ranch on flatbread (or maybe pita). Both sandwiches were enjoyable, one more so than the other. I will say the staff was very friendly and welcoming! The roast beef could've used a bit more flavor, but the chicken bacon ranch was a standout--except for the bacon, which was incredibly smoky. If you're not a fan of heavy smoke, that might not be the best choice for you. One minor letdown: the sandwiches were supposed to come with a pickle spear, but unfortunately, ours were missing. Overall, it's a delightful little spot, and we'd happily stop by again next time we're in town. To those about to Naish, we salute you! And next time, we hope to get our pickle!

These bagels are the real deal, chewy, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. One pro tip: pre-order the day before if you actually want to guarantee yourself a bagel. They move fast, and for good reason. One thing I really appreciate is how generous they are with the cream cheese. So many places barely spread it anymore and make you ask (or pay) for extra. Not here. Big Dom's loads it up properly, which makes a huge difference and honestly feels rare these days. Everything about this place feels intentional, quality ingredients, consistency, and a clear passion for what they're doing. It's the kind of spot you plan around rather than stumble into. If you're serious about bagels in Raleigh, this is the place. Just don't sleep on that preorder.
