Iced Mocha latte

We went before heading over to the beach around 10am. There were a lot of people but we got our items quickly and it tasted amazing !! My boyfriend and I were asking for a lot of recommendations from the associates and they were very helpful and nice :) very cozy and chill place to eat at to start your day. Good amount of seating inside and outside

7.2025 everything bagel with cream cheese
Catherine S.

I had high expectations for these bagels but I am disappointed again after trying them twice in different locations. This location in LB is located in a small plaza with limited parking so be prepared to pay for metered street parking. The shop has plenty of street parking and had plenty of bagel options relatively close to closing on a weekday. Service was fast and friendly! I ordered an everything bagel toasted with cream cheese. They are generous with the cream cheese but the bagel itself is a bit too chewy and too salty for my taste.

The bagels are the best. Unique. Bagel on the outside and bagel/bread-ish on the inside, They are my favorite bagels now. Shirley's has spoiled me! The blueberry bagel with their amazing blueberry cream cheese-- drooling just writing about it. If you get a chance... definitely try it. You won't regret that decision! Mmmm

Californian Sandwich
Robert L.

Came in around 11am on Memorial Day, there was a little line and was lucky to get princess parking. Kinda impossible if ur not lucky. I'm always craving a good bagel since New York. I got the Californian sandwich on garlic 7/10. And a nova lux for later 8/10. Nothing too crazy to write home about but enough for what I was looking for Decent seating area inside but I think it's a to-go type of place.

Turkey Avocado Yum Yum
Willy R.

Extra extra, Turkey Avocado makes the front page of the Yum Yum news. It was so good that I felt like a dog eating some accidental scraps that fell. I didn't even look up to notice anybody watching me ravenously chowing down on my nosh. I always like to come here when I visit Laguna Beach. The staff is great. There's always a line (but it's never that bad). Thank you

hard and burnt
Danielle G.

Shirley's Bagels is hands down the best spot in Laguna Beach for a bagel fix. I ordered the ABC Bagel (Avocado, Bacon, Cream Cheese) and it was absolutely delicious, fresh, flavorful, and satisfying as always. Their bagels are consistently amazing, and it's clear they know what they're doing when it comes to quality and taste. We also decided to try the cinnamon roll because it looked great in the window, but unfortunately it was burnt and hard, so we ended up tossing it. A bit of a letdown, but it won't stop me from coming back for the bagels they truly never miss.

Chipotle Turkey
Kayla D.

Best thing I ate in Laguna. I ordered the chipotle turkey on an everything bagel and it was sooo delicious. I'm very picky with quality and everything tasted really fresh

Bacon egg and cheese on jalapeño cheddar bagel

The food was great and the staff was friendly. I would definitely come back here in the future.

I am furious at this point! I love their bagels but they sandwiches what the heck?! I gave them 2nd chance today but same thing happened last time - my sandwich was sliding around, everything was falling out of it. It wasn't cut fully and when pulled apart everything fallen out. And I didn't even use cheese cream in it. Also avocado is not avocado! Is guacamole type of paste, I was expecting avocado slices and this should be noted. I regularly visit NY and I know how properly packed and prepared bagel sandwich should look like. I can't even eat what I am getting here without seating down and using fork and plate because everything is falling out! No thank you, they have a lot to learn...

Santa fe bagel with chicken
Yvette S.

Such a nice little place hidden in a shopping center. The most satisfying post hike meal the staff was so sweet and handed us our bagels directly. I got the Santa Fe and it's was so hefty nice big ol' bagel with the most satisfying cheese pull. They did not skimp out on filling this bagel up!! I also ordered an iced matcha with oat milk which paired perfectly. The also had fresh squeezed orange juice and spread to take home. I couldn't resist trying their orange juice and I'm so glad I did it was so fresh! If you're ever in the area grab a bagel and walk on over to the beach 100% recommend.

Gohar K.

Delicious bagels and bagel sandwiches. Baked fresh daily. Busy place on weekends. We enjoyed our lox and eggs sandwich and the egg sandwich on everything bagel. It's a great place to stop by on the way to the beach. Lots of drinks and all.

We went here once for breakfast and two additional times for some lattes to-go during our Laguna…read moreBeach stay. This place gets busy on weekend mornings so plan to stand in a bit of a line. You order at the counter and there's self seating inside and out on the patio. You can partially see the ocean from some of the patio spots which is nice. There's lots of breakfast options and I like that you can order one or more of the breakfast sides. So you can get a little bit of everything. I had the almond French toast and my husband had the breakfast sandwich. We both shared some bacon, eggs, and breakfast potatoes. Their lattes are pretty tasty, and I would say I'm picky when it comes to iced lattes. They offer a few different special flavors. This is a great little cafe spot that I would be happy to come back to.

We stopped by this spot while visiting Laguna Beach and decided to give it a try for breakfast. My…read morepartner ordered the bacon breakfast burrito and thought it was just okay, nothing memorable. I tried a few of the chips that came with it and unfortunately they tasted stale, which was definitely disappointing. For my meal, I ordered the Eggs Benedict (the poached eggs with hollandaise sauce). It was okay overall, but I found it pretty flavorless. The hollandaise sauce didn't add much flavor, and the dish wasn't very memorable. I had to add a lot of ketchup and hot sauce to add flavor... One thing I did appreciate was that the restaurant appears to be family-owned, and I believe it's been in business for over 16 years. It's always nice to support a local business, and the prices were fair for the Laguna Beach area. The location is also a plus. It's within walking distance of the beach, and they offer validated parking with a parking structure located behind the restaurant, which makes visiting much more convenient. Overall, the food was not anything that would make us want to return. Between the stale chips and the lack of flavor in my meal, it felt more like a one-time visit rather than a place we'd seek out again.

Kitchen in the Canyon is a hidden gem tucked away in a little business pocket in Laguna. We shared…read morethe breakfast burrito with sausage and a side of hash browns, the burrito was so good, with red potatoes inside that gave it the perfect amount of yum. It's definitely big enough to share. The hash browns were... hash browns, solid but nothing fancy. I also had the oatmilk rose latte, which was perfect. It's a walk up and order type of place, the cashier was not the friendliest but I also think it had been a bit busy just before we got there. The space has ample indoor and outdoor seating, and since we don't get to enjoy outdoor dining much during the summer back home, it was a nice treat. The menu had so many great-sounding options that we already want to go back and try more. We'd definitely stop here again next time we're in Laguna.

One thing to note, which isn't a drawback, is that this isn't a typical sit-down restaurant. You…read moreorder at the counter, take a number, and find a seat. There's really no table service, just food runners and bussers. And you grab your own water. Definitely seems like they're trying to cut costs by having no waiters. The food is mid at best, with overpriced menu items. I ordered the lumberjack breakfast, the waffles and eggs were decent, but the hash browns sorely lacked any seasoning or flavor. Their texture was similar to soggy fries. I told myself, "okay, maybe just a miss on this one item." I came back a second time and tried the eggs Benedict, and that too lacked any flavor or seasoning. Definitely disappointed with this place. There are better spots in Laguna that match the vibe. It is convenient, though, since it's right next to the Sawdust Festival. Most likely won't be coming back.
