Tl;Dr: Probably the best bagel sandwich I've had in my life. (I've had them in NY, Cali and all…read moreover US) Steaming hot bagels fresh out of the oven. Highly recommend #10 Spicy chicken. Freshly squeezed OJ.
Bagelwiches = bagel + cream cheese + cheese slice + protein + veggies = Yummy goodness!
***The long read***
How I got here: I had an early morning flight from Prague to Copenhagen. Lack of sleep and the early morning flight had left me tired and hungry. My friend who'd been to Copenhagen before mentioned this as a must visit place so I thought of grabbing a quick breakfast here on my first day in Copenhagen. I took the M2 train from the airport and got out at Kongens Nytrov. A quick 4 mins walk later I was here at the Bagel co.
Ambience: Although it's a tiny place the aroma of freshly baked bagel won't let you miss this place as you walk past it. It has a bench on the inside and 2 tables with 2 chairs each on the outside. Menu is on the inside and outside as well. You can see a display of fresh veggies and meat behind the glass.
The experience: You can pick from a preset menu that's on the wall both inside and outside. They're all bagel sandwiches (bagelwiches?) served hot or cold depending on the protein inside. Small fire icon besides the hot one would cue you as to which of them are hot sandwiches. You can either choose the preset ones or order your own sandwich. They have popular options like omelet, Lox, pulled pork and even veggie options like the veggie, falafel etc.
You get to choose from a variety of bagels like cheddar, plain, tomato, sesame and different cream cheese. Feel free to swap out any of it. You can even get different cream cheese on each slice. Veggies are super fresh. If you don't believe, just hear the lettuce crunch as they shape it into your bagel.
I found myself coming back to this place again and I ended up trying the omelet, spicy chicken sandwich and Lox (smoked salmon)
Out of the 3, my favorite was Spicy chicken. The chicken was tender and with just the right level of spice. Omelet with bacon in it is also the quintessential breakfast of the Americas! They serve coffee and freshly squeezed OJ!
I got introduced to bagels in NY 10 yrs ago, so the idea of bagel has always been bagel + cream cheese and that's it. Although I've seen bagelwiches before, this place is what got me hooked on to the idea of it. I am almost afraid to try out bagel sandwiches in the US because the Bagel co has set the bar really high. If the US ones don't meet the bar I may just have to book a flight to Copenhagen to get my fix!
