    Sincerely Bagel is a Korean-inspired bagel shop serving up some unique and delicious bagels. To get here, street parking will be your best bet and there is a lot of around the neighborhood. Inside, they have a cozy setup with about 5-6 tables for seating. For their menu, they have a solid selection of bagels to choose from and different ways you could create your own sandwich. Wifey and I opted to go for the Ham, Egg & Cheese Sandwich on a Kimchi Cheddar Bagel. All of the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Every bite was delicious, we will be back forsure next time we are in the area!

    So happy to finally get to try their creative and Asian-inspired bagels! I love how well-balanced their flavors are. You would expect the different unique flavors to clash but they're all subtle enough to work well together. The bagels themselves are on the doughier end but do have a nice crust on the outside. I do wish they would toast them justtt a tad more cause I like toasty bagels. The sandwich I made was a Kimchi Cheddar Bagel with their new Truffle & Pepper Schmear, Pork Roll, and Souffle Egg. The slight acidity of the kimchi was refreshing. The schmear was also light and whipped, rounding out the whole sandwich well. Both the pork roll and egg souffle were fresh, tender, and fluffy! Super delicious all together and definitely one hell of a breakfast sandwich. But my favorite combo so far is probably their Roasted Onion Bagel with the Calabrian Chilli Schmear! Perfectly savory and aromatic. Endless delicious permutations you can make here. Staffs were lovely. Space is cute and the line moves fast so be sure to check them out!

    This is a spot that you can go to again and again and not get tired of it. I love their sourdough bagels and the infinite amount of options for bagel bases and schmears. A favorite is always the cheddar kimchi and I always like to check out their most recent seasonals. Looking forward to my next trip back!

    Ever since visiting New York and having bagels over there, I've been on a hunt to find something just as good back home. That's when one of our friends told us about Sincerely Bagels, and I was so glad they did! Offering unique flavors to their bagels, it's done with care and precision. The bagels themselves have a little airiness to them and the schmeer was packed with flavor but not overbearing. We wanted to try the kimchi bagel, but they ran out when we got there, mind you we arrived an hour after they opened. So if they says something, let that sink in. I'll definitely be back to hopefully try the kimchi bagel. Place has limited seating, but they do offer tables outside that allow you to enjoy the PDX and a good morning spot to hang out with company.

    Super small bagel shop with limited seating. I would highly recommend coming early in the morning so you have a better variety to choose from the staff was very friendly but did not ask any questions or explain the menu very well.

    Yummy soft bagels! This store is so cute and the line always goes by super quick. Limited outdoor seating, mainly indoor seats with street parking. The Kimchi Bagel is so niche and delicious!! Love topping options and opportunities to customize your bagels

    The cutest Asian-owned bagel shop! I love their Korean inspired schmears and hope they come out with more interesting flavors! We got the Rosemary Evoo Maldon salt bagel with raspberry and green onion cream cheese on the side. They can toast up the bagel and it was interesting bc instead of slicing the bagel in half, they roasted it intact -- which I ended up loving bc the outside is all toasted and crunchy and the inside was steaming, soft, and chewy. We just ripped the bagel in half and dipped into the schmears. I've been thinking about this bagel ever since I've had it and can't wait to go back!!

    Great place to get breakfast bagels. Big portions and shareable. Friendly service. Busy place so be prepared to stand in line. Nice place to sit down and enjoy your meal in the morning. When in Portland must try!

    THE BIG: Located in the Laurelhurst neighborhood of Portland and shares a wall with the pie spot. Snug and cozy bagel spot that has some asian inspired items. Street parking available. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I was staying with a friend and he recommended this bagel spot to me. They have some interesting bagel combinations. The one that stood out to me was the chili crisp bagel. I got the cheddar & kimchi bagel with eggs, cheese, and microgreens along with a chili crisp bagel w/ spicy scallion spread. Both were delicious however I did think the chili crisps bagel was too fried and the exterior hard as I was eating it. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Ultimate for two bagels, we spent around $21. Pretty pricey but to be honest, pretty delicious. I'd come back again to try more of their stuff.

    Sincerely, Bagel. I don't even know where to start. I am quite the critic when it comes to eating out, as I always expect a high quality-to-price ratio. Sincerely, Bagel blew my expectations upon first bite! I've been to a variety of bagel locations throughout my life as it is a great easy breakfast option, but Sincerely, Bagel easily surpassed all others (to the point of neglect). I first tried their bagels in July and have not stopped thinking about them as my go-to bagel location (I've been a handful of times since then). The selection does vary due to demand and production, but I have not been disappointed with any of the bagels I've tried thus far. The first time I tried Sincerely, Bagel, I got a Za'tar & EVOO bagel with regular cream cheese (you save a few cents). WOW! I never expected to have a reaction to a bagel as I did with this one, it had a crispy exterior, was seasoned generously, and provided a soft interior with a perfectly textured cream cheese. The later times I've gone, I've tried the Rosemary & EVOO bagel and the cheesy garlic bagel with the scallion cream cheese and the garlic and herb cream cheese. While I realized I may not be a cheese bagel type of girl, I did enjoy all selections greatly. The price for a specialty bagel along with a flavored cream cheese is about $6.50, but I believe it is worth every cent (including additional tip). I have not been able to thoroughly assess and describe their product as I typically do with other food places as I eat the product too quickly. I do know that the process that they are consistently delivering with their product is spectacular and has not disappointed me at all (staff have been different multiple times as well). Sincerely, Bagel is definitely worth the visit and price for me (which is very rare)! It intrigues me to the point of interest in their baking and preparation process. Typically when visiting, I'm in a rush or taking out, but they offer a nice seating area with a few tables, chairs, and a bench! There is often a line (but wasn't once), which can take some time to get your item (I would assume an average of 3-4 minutes per bagel as the wait time), but it is definitely worth the wait! They seem to perform to perfection with all varieties of bagels (whichever suits your preference). If they had a stamp card, that would be dangerous and I'd suddenly become an early bird! My only complaint is the early closing time (as most other bagel places have), because I can eat a Sincerely, Bagel bagel at any time.

    Exterior - cute :)

    I actually saw a critical review of Sincerely Bagel that made me want to come try it for myself. They opened in early 2025 so they're pretty new. They serve sourdough bagels with Korean-inspired flavors. Of course they have traditional bagels/schmears too. You can also get a bagel sandwich or other pastry. I'm not a bagel critic (or some might say bagel snob) - but these were good! Crunchy crusty exterior, chewy doughy interior, and fun flavors. We tried four flavors: plain, zaatar+evoo, leek+sesame, and of course kimchi. Staff was friendly and our bagels came out warm, quickly. This place seems popular so I imagine there is usually a line and they do sell out some days!

    Kristine L.

    Very unique bagels like zaatar & evoo, leek & sesame! I got the kimchi- cheddar bagel with egg, cheese and microgreens. I thought the bagel was too soft and not crispy but the sandwich itself was delicious! For over $10, this bagel sandwich was pricey, but it hit the spot. The egg was soft and the bagel had alot of flavor. The cream cheese are very unique as well. I loved the spicy scallion schmear. Staff is very nice and overall quick service.

    I didn't realize Sincerely Bagel was insta famous when I went to check it out when running errands. I came around 11AM on a Saturday and I think it was in between rushes because they still have some of their infamous kimchi bagels. I was starving so I ended up adding the souffle egg, bacon, and cheese for a yummy breakfast sandwich. It took around 10 mins for it to come out but they bring it to your table. I already enjoy eating kimchi so to have it on a bagel? Genius. The bagel sandwich did get a little messy so be sure to have plenty of napkins on hand but it was super fluffy and had a nice crunch with the kimchi. The souffle eggs were a nice touch and balance since the kimchi & bacon add some saltiness to it. Solid breakfast option and would be down to get it again but it does get expensive close to $15. Didn't try their coffee this time but be sure to check out the sign for some other bagel specials they have. If you're not feeling that they have your standard options as well - just check the case to be sure they are in stock.

    I never thought I'd see the day when I'd give a Portland bagel five stars…read more A few things to note here: 1. Oregon is a miserable state for bagels. Arguably the best in the genre here exists in Hood River, and it's about par with Northeast supermarket bagels or the British Columbia approximation of a Montreal bagel. It's fine, but far better than the bagel-shaped rolls of white bread you'll encounter here. 2. Bentley's is in a neighborhood dense with bagels, but light on good bagels. The names of its bagel-making neighbors are familiar to the locals, but they're also a big part of the reason why expats go out of their way to travel across town and wait in lines for bagels that might be passable replicas of those they remember. My family is from New Jersey, which has its own (albeit unlauded) bagel culture entirely, and has spent more than a decade here lodging bagel complaints. Their last straw was a place in St. John's that moved to the art museum and then to a place by the Widmer brewery that sort of made a decent bagel, but charged about $3 for the privilege of eating one. Not with cream cheese, not with lox or whitefish--$3 for the bagel itself. Sirs, you can go fuck yourselves with that level of extortion for what's essentially a Shop-Rite+ bagel. Bentley's has been much more reasonable and consistent. In a town that considers boiling a bagel an artisanal option and not, in fact, a default, Bentley's gets its chewy exterior and density down. While I'm slightly disappointed that the dough lacks some of the complexity of its back-east contemporaries--especially on a coast where the tang of a sourdough is approached with such pride--Bentley's gets the consistency of its bagels down. It comes down to sound fundamentals: Bentley's makes only eight varieties of bagels, but includes right-coast vestiges like salt and onion. More importantly, though a single bagel is still $2 (slight sticker shock from back east), that gets into the buck-and-change range quickly when you get a baker's dozen for $21 (roughly $1.60 per). I haven't gotten the cream cheese or lox here because I like making life as difficult on myself as possible. The best cream cheese I've found here is in Hillsboro. The best lox and whitefish? Astoria. So if a bagel spot is going to be out of my way anyway, I may as well start the weekend picking up a bag on 21st street, hitting 26 for cream cheese, and popping up to Astoria for a room for the weekend. After nearly a decade and a half in this state, Bentley's has helped my family shorten the bagel map a bit and given us the best option the Portland metro has to option. Before you give up on bagels entirely and start believing things like "Hmm, maybe biscuits and gravy ARE worth my time," pop into Bentley's on a quiet Sunday morning and try it for yourself.

    I love that they make fresh real eggs. And I saw them hand…read moreform the bagels, wow! The breakfast sandwich needed more flavor for my taste.
