I finally checked out Sour Seed Bagels in downtown West Palm Beach. Off of Fern, down the street from Johan Joe's, Sour Seed offers delicious bagels with superb service behind the counter. While my initial visit was just before they closed on Sunday afternoon where they just had gluten free bagels, they were absolutely delicious. I ordered mine with some salmon, dill, and red onion, on top of scallion cream cheese. This meal brought me to a place of tremendous well being that I washed down with some tasty cold brew black. Seating wise is purely outside as there are tables set up next to the sidewalk on this deck. It's nice if it's a sunny day and the wind off the intercoastal isn't bad. Because I went there fairly late in their hours, I didn't have to wait in line or wait long for my food. But their staff was on point regardless. Do note that since this is located in downtown West Palm, you will either have to locate a close enough street parking spot near by or go to the garage on Datura in between Dixie and olive. I would come back in a heartbeat to try more of their bagel varieties and different sandwiches. read more

This location is super busy and just seems very awkward the layout, how the tables are outside, the constant yelling of names for orders just seems a little messy. I ordered a plan bagel and a smoothie. The bagel was a bit burnt, wayyy too crispy, my smoothie was good. There was a young lady sitting next to me who had to completely take off her eggs and bacon off her bagel because it was extremely burnt there was no bread inside. Anyways maybe it was an off day, idk. I'm not sure if I'll give this place a try again. read more

The bagels are very thin and well toasted, not a place I'd recommend if you are looking for a more traditional bagel style. The breakfast sandwich was very full and would recommend ordering that one, but the jam on the butter and jam bagel was super super sweet that we couldnt finish it off. The staff was very nice and helpful when ordering Sour Seed received a lot of hype on tiktok and instagram, if you are visiting from out of town and only have a limited number of days to get breakfast, I would not recommend stopping here read more

The main reason I am giving this place 3 stars is because the prices are insane. I can understand and appreciate that the quality of the food at this bagel shop may be better than others, as they use sourdough for their bagels, have homemade syrups for their drinks and their cream cheeses are also made in house. However, I would not say that these are the best bagels I've had in my life. For 4 half portion bagels (so 2 whole bagels), 2 drinks, tax & tip, I spent just shy of $72. There seems to be limited street parking, which you have to pay for of course so that's not a plus. From what I could tell they only had outdoor seating, but the staff is very nice and patient while you decide what you want. They have a good variety of menu options to choose from and you can make substitutions which is a plus. The cashier was also very kind to help make recommendations for what items are popular/her favorites. Since this place is basically a window, there is no indoor space, unless you are a staff member, so the line is formed outside and when you get to the window you can place your order with the cashier and either wait for your order to go or have a seat and it will be brought to you. It was a pretty chilly and windy day when I went, and there was a small line but they got through the line pretty quickly. This place is very fast/casual. In my opinion, I think the bagels should have been softer. They were overly toasted/too crunchy. Our favorite was the tomato + cream cheese bagel with the preserved lemon & Calabrian chili cream cheese. The Palm Beach Fog's were okay, but I would definitely add some sweetener to it as they didn't taste like much without it. I also noticed at the restaurant (and you can see in the drink picture) that they are not consistent with their matcha ratios as one drink was significantly brighter/darker green than the other and they were supposed to be the exact same drink. So maybe other people will have a different opinion on their order. If you scroll to my food picture you will see the following: Top left: Simple Smoked Salmon (sub: Wild Alaskan Cold Smoked Salmon) on an Everything Bagel (half portion) with Scallion Cream Cheese Bottom left: Smashed Avocado on an Everything Bagel (half portion) Bottom right: Simple Smoked Salmon (sub: Wild Alaskan Cold Smoked Salmon) on an Everything Bagel (half portion) with Dill, Parsley & Chive Cream Cheese Top right: Tomato + Cream Cheese on an Everything Bagel (half portion) with Preserved Lemon & Calabrian Chili Cream Cheese The two drinks are small Palm Beach Fogs with the homemade vanilla syrup. Overall I would say while I did leave satisfied (not overly stuffed, but not hungry), spending over $70 on 2 whole bagels with toppings and 2 water based drinks is incomprehensible, and these were not the best bagels I've had. read more

NO BAGELS BINS HERE. We went there (first time) with Excitement to buy at least a Bakers Dozen poppy seeded. We have Nova and the cream cheese. purple chives. ready at home. Walked in , left saddened. This place is NOT a True bagel store. Call it an AlaCart stop for a for an airport or hotel lobby. Get Real, not here read more

Absolutely loved the bagels here!! It was so fresh when we got it, it has the perfect amount of crunch. I loved how it didn't make me feel horrible after eating it either. Cute quaint little spot, it gets busy so the earlier the better it is to come and grab your bagels! read more

Absolutely obsessed. As a New Yorker, I am a harsh critic on a bagel and this met the mark. We tried an everything bagel with butter, the egg salad, and tomato and cream cheese bagel. My favorite was egg salad on everything bagel with the dill parsley cream cheese. ELITE. I woke up each morning and got there right before opening to avoid the long line but honestly worth the wait!! read more

In the area for a work trip and was looking for a solid Sunday breakfast option. Luckily, this is just around the corner from my hotel. The lines here do get long and I waited 30 minutes just to place my order. However, the team is quick and I received my order in less than 5 minutes. I got an everything sourdough bagel with scallion cream cheese (recommend by the cashier) and salmon. It's a hearty portion of salmon and the scallion cream cheese was an excellent recommendation. I also placed an order for an iced chai with oat-milk. Their chai blend and syrup is made in house and the chai leaned on the spicer side. I would go back to this location, but I don't think I would hop in line on a Sunday and wait for 30 minutes. It's good but not 30 minute wait good. Would plan to go back mid week when it's probably slower and not during a breakfast rush. read more

I've been hearing about Sour Seed Bagels and decided to give it a try today. It was pretty crowded on a Saturday morning which means finding parking was a mission. I ordered the garden bagel with scallion cream cheese. It was good, but not worth $15. There was barely any cream cheese on it to begin with. I personally prefer H&H Bagels. read more

The most delicious sourdough bagels. Very crispy on the outside, perfectly seasoned, and fresh. The tomato and scallion cream cheese on everything bagel was juicy and fresh. The combination is divine. The tomatoes were seasoned, and the squeeze of lemon added brightness. The Wild Sockeye Cold Smoked Salmon was delightful. The dill added an herb-ines and freshness, while the salmon was smoky and strong. The lemon was also a great touch of zing. Both bagels were perfect, crispy and savory. Coffee was delicious, not bitter or sour. Items were pretty pricey but quality is worth it. Service was quick and efficient. The outside sitting area was kept clean and organized. Various tables were available for seating. read more

For $34 you can get a matcha and a gluten free bagel with tomato. Not sure how I feel if it's worth it considering you can get pop up bagels in palm beach for $40 a dozen plus 2 smears. (Again pop up is expensive but sour seed makes it seem like a great deal. They were sold out of everything else before 11 so come early if you want preference. Also opens at 8 most bagel shops open around 6. The staff was nice and helpful but I wasn't left amazed. It was good nothing great I feel the hype is a bit overrated for price. The food was mediocre read more

Meh, the matcha is overpriced it was $11 for a 12 oz strawberry matcha. Nothing special, this place has gotten a lot of business because it has good marketing, but its not a welcoming place at all read more

Excellent place for a sour dough bagel. The overall experience is very good but it's very slow most likely because they prepare everything to order. Just be prepared for long lines on the weekend. The egg and bacon sandwich is one of the best I've eaten. read more

Bagels are awesome but it is insanely expensive, just paid 18 dollars for just a bagel and no drink.

Sour Seed is the best bagel I've ever had. There is always a line, and for good reason. My ideal Sunday features their bagels and chagachino! Honorable mention to the strawberry swirl smoothie. read more

This place is amazing. It can definitely get busy on weekends so I recommend going early or on weekdays for a shorter line!

Me and the wifey wanted to just share a bagel sandwich. $18+ with tip and getting a burnt mess with no taste. How is this place so busy? Service is also very slow. The outdoor seating gives the place the one star. And the bacon only. Place is definitely not worth the hype. read more

Sure the sourdough bagels themselves are pretty good and appreciate they prioritize quality ingredients, but the overall experience and prices are what will keep us from coming back. Last went on a weekday morning, no line when I walked up and they were still "sold out" of most of their bagel varieties. Manufactured scarcity? Oddly bagels they claimed were sold out for the day at the window were still available to order online from their own site (even the GF ones). FYI it's a window only with seats outside. Can be confusing when the window is closed and unstaffed. They don't want customers inside. This place reminds me a bit of a Portlandia episode. Employees like to introduce folks to their "open face concept" Though they'll do it if pressed, they don't seem to want to sell "loose" bagels. Why not just call themselves The Sour Seed Sandwich Company or something? As others have mentioned, the prices are quite high. More than $14 for a single bagel with butter and jam? They sell a few of their salads by the half pound. The tuna is almost $30 a pound. Egg salad almost $25 a pound. Plus, they add a 4% service charge (No idea why. Paid with a credit card?) on my bill. This is significantly higher than even the best bagel spots in NYC/Montreal. Even when not busy and the order simple the service tends to be s l o w. Generally homogenous crowd most days. Pricey drinks (Palm Beach Fog etc.) are over $10 each. Surely not worth waiting in line for. read more

Came on a Saturday, waited for about 30 minutes for our bagels & coffees. SO worth the wait! Bagels are amazing, homemade cream cheeses, which are also amazing! Definitely worth the hype! read more

Tried this place out on a whim and I was pretty impressed by the menu. I got the avocado toast on a plain bagel and the Palm Beach fog matcha. My friend got a gluten-free bagel with raspberry jam and a flat white. The avocado toast was deliciously fresh and tangy and my friend liked her bagel and coffee. I would not recommend the Palm Beach fog if you're used to sweetened matcha, it was not my fave. Though the place was busy the staff was quick and receptive. Because the restaurant is busy and there's only outdoor seating it was a bit noisy and crowded at times but overall a chill breakfast spot. read more

Best bagels to exist ! My one and only pregnancy craving. I'm celiac the gluten free are to die for.

Best bagel I have had in South Florida. While the place is expensive, the bagels are fantastic. I would get the Simple Smoked Salmon on an Everything Bagel. The Iced Matcha Latte with Almond Milk had a weird taste to it, possibly due to the almond milk made in house. There is street parking available. The line tends to be long so be prepared to wait; however, the wait is worth it. I will definitely be back. read more

Wow, I've been waiting to try these bagels for a month. These bagels have the most amazing chew! I make fresh sourdough bread at home because you just can't buy loaves that have that fresh home baked chew. These bagels have it! Mine was toasted perfectly. I light spread scallion cream cheese with wild smoked salmon. The salmon was delicious and generous. I paired my bagel with a oat matcha latte which was also delicious read more

I finally got to try Sour Seed Bagels why visiting Florida. I've heard so many great things about this place. WOW WOW WOW! I'm still dreaming of their sesame bagel with their house made cashew truffle cream cheese! I'm vegan, so it's always wonderful when a business provides a few vegan options. My friend picked the bagels up to go, so a little jealous I didn't get to see the location, especially since the beach is right there! Ps. Please open a Sour Seed Bagels in San Francisco! read more

Service was friendly; sidewalk dining was neat, clean and stylish. Mobile order pickup is a bit unclear as there is generally a long line at the window for ordering but apparently you can skip the line for mobile order pickup, and patrons don't love the idea you're skipping them. The food presentation is strong, the ingredients are fresh and taste great, but it's really hard spending $30 (includes tax and tip) on essentially two bagels. The bagels themselves are pretty good, but sort of over toasted in my opinion. They are on the thinner side and have nice texture from the sourdough starter. I opted for a half simple salmon with scallion cream cheese $8.75, half garden veggie with spicy preserved lemon and chili cream cheese $8.50, and my husband got a whole bagel toasted with plain cream cheese $6. On the toast app, you can't order a bagel to make at home - only option is with cream cheese ($6 for plain, more for flavored cream cheese), with butter ($5.50) but if you want butter and jam that's $7 for a half and $13 for a whole bagel. The toppings aren't abundant, the amount of cream cheese on the regular toasted bagel was paltry, the amount of smoked salmon was skimpy, the veggies, herbs and capers were satisfactory. I know it's expensive to run a storefront downtown but prices seem pretty steep for what you get. read more

Delicious bagel sandwiches!! I've come here these past few days and tried several different flavors. My favorite is the wild smoked salmon and cream cheese (horseradish!) on an everything bagel,...best ever yet! And the chai tea is so good. Also loved the smashed avocado and breakfast sandwiches as well. Chris, the owner, is clearly passionate about this place and the quality of his food. Highly recommend!! read more

Loved the organic and house made nature of the restaurant. Sourdough bagels were fabulous. Cold foams and flavorings for the coffee are made in house (no cheap pumps flavorings).

Sour Seed Bagels is my new favorite cafe of all time! Their sourdough bagels, fermented overnight, are incredible--even the gluten-free one is to die for! My friends and I have tried almost everything, and our favorites are the breakfast sandwich, simple smoked salmon, and egg salad bagels. The horseradish & chive, dill parsley & chive, and scallion cream cheeses are actually life-changing. Also love the option for wild-caught smoked salmon! Have never seen that option at a bagel shop before ever!!! The housemade jams are also so crazy good. I wish I could buy them by the jar! I love that they use mostly organic ingredients, including ceremonial-grade matcha and housemade syrups with no cane sugar. The iced Chagaccino mushroom latte was amazing, but my top drinks are the house matcha and Palm Beach Fog. All also lifeee-changing! (Love that they offer monk fruit as a sweetener!!) You can tell there was so much heart and soul put into this spot. The staff is friendly and fast, making every visit a joy. They even brought us samples of their organic fresh pressed orange juice while we waited for our bagels. The outdoor seating in the sunshine is so perfect. Wishing the absolute best for this small business--I'll be back every day! read more

The line is a little intimidating, but it goes quick. Make sure to save a table while you wait as there's only a few outdoor tables. The quality of food is very good, especially for Florida! We spent 100 dollars for 5 specialty bagels and one drink, so it's pricey. I loved the quality of ingredients such as pasture raised eggs, cashew cream cheese, wild smoked salmon. Bagels were very good as well, all sourdough (regular, sesame, and everything). Also, the coffee drinks deserve a shout out - strong latte, good quality milk options. I had an almond milk latte and it was great. read more
