Hair in my bagel, disgusting. Don't waste your time and money. Great Bagel and s much better.

I love bagels. It was my first time in, I knew I wanted salmon so I ordered the Lux and then you chose what kinda bagel, which is neat. I like the everything bagel. It was so yummy! I ordered roll and oats iced coffee and a bottled OJ. It was a lovely breakfast and was out quickly! read more

Southland bagels was one of the first spots I tried out when I first visited Lexington and it's a fan favorite! The service is always friendly and fast. Their menu is full of great bagel sandwiches but even if you're not in the mood for a bagel sandwich their bagels taste great on their own with any of their cream cheese flavors they make in house! The ambiance is fun and has some great nods to science fiction and comic books on their walls! Overall, a great bagel spot! read more

Just left Southland. Tried calling in advance to make certain they weren't sold out. No answer. Came in and ordered, while there was a basket full of bagels. Placed my order and waited 15 minutes. People came in after me and ordered, had their food made before me, used up all of the bagels, and then called me to the counter to say they were sold out. Pretty certain my order should have been made first, before fulfilling an order for someone after me, and then just saying "sorry...we're sold out". Not the first time this happened. Sorry...here is your one star review for piss poor customer service. read more

All the bagels are so so good! My fiancé loves the Hangover burger bagel sandwich. You really can't go wrong with any of the bagel and cream cheese flavors and sandwiches! Just make sure you get there early, they tend to run out of bagels very quickly. read more

Bagels are very good. Everything bagel is it! It took a little while even with an online order but it was still tasty.

So slow. The guy making coffee was definitely struggling. Drinks came out 15 minutes after bagels. Waited 20 minutes for 3 bagels. One of our drinks was wrong, we gave up and left. 45 minutes total for 3 bagels and 2 drinks. read more

Super cute store, I've only had their bagels at the farmer's market and I wish I'd been here sooner! Super nice and helpful people, they were training a new person, which was also great for me to hear the explanations about different options. The menu is pretty basic but very well done: bagles, bagel sandwiches, some other food items, drinks. Couldn't decide between the Hulk Smash and the Migos, so I'll be back for the Migos next time. Also want to check out their coffee, the Samsise Gamgee sounds yummy! read more

Bagels were excellent, soft and crusty. I ordered my everything bagel toasted with butter and it was the best bagel I've had in a while. My husband and girls all opted for breakfast sandwiches. They were very good, almost overstuffed, which most people love. The place is small but cozy. It's in a strip mall. read more

I live two hours away, but whenever I get to Lexington I try to grab bagels here to take home. I say try because they're usually out, or almost out, of bagels. The last time I stopped in, around noon so nearly three hours before closing, they had exactly one--count 'em--one bagel left. Plus six plain ones in the day-old bin. And all the good flavors of cream cheese were sold out. I mean, egg nog? Jalapeno? Seriously? My advice to the owners or managers of Southland Bagels is pretty basic: You want to sell more bagels? Make more bagels. read more

OK, I've been coming here for a while now. It's nice to be able to get a delicious bagel sandwich and a very good cup of coffee for the same, or lower price of just a cup of coffee at the big name store. The service is great. Even though it looks like they get crazy busy on the weekends, everyone is friendly, and service is quick.. And, I'm supporting a locally owned business. read more

This bagel place was within walking distance of our Airbnb in Lexington, and we never say no to a bagel in the morning. Their offerings were varied and all sounded tasty! I got the migos on sesame, and while most bagel sandwiches I've had in the past used other cheeses not cream cheese, the bacon and egg and cream cheese combo was really tasty on the nice, tall and chewy bagel. We got a bag of the "day olds" to go too, and enjoyed bagels the next morning after waking up in our Airbnb after the wedding we were in town for: good decision! If we're back in Lexington we'd definitely grab more bagels from Southland bagel. read more

We are big bagel fans and went to Southland Bagel for the first time this past weekend. I ordered a mocha and the Migos. The Migos is comprised of Your favorite Southland bagel served with bacon, egg, and your choice of cream cheese, cheddar or swiss. This combination was delicious and very messy. Make sure to grab napkins before you start eating! They were very busy and appeared to stay that way the entire time we were there. It's a very small bagel shop so there isn't much room for sitting but they were frequented by people doing carryout as well. Keep this in mind when you go as food can take a minute to prepare with such large crowds and a small operating crew. read more

The food was good but when we got home we realized that our burgers were missing half the ingredients. We got the hangover but it was missing the egg, ham, and bacon. Super disappointed. read more

Excellent bagels and really good cream cheese spreads. The sandwiches they make are delicious. They also have discounted bagels in a bag for sale. We try to stop in when we are in the area . read more

Quaint little spot with friendly service and even better food. I went in around 9 am and could already tell this place was going to be good based on the smells alone. I ordered a bacon, egg & DILL PICKLE cream cheese sandwich on an everything bagel. I'm not complaining and will def be back. Rad chill music was a plus read more

Hands down the best bagel in Lexington. I typically stop by 2 or 3 times a week for a latte and bagel with cream cheese. I just love the friendly service and welcoming atmosphere here at Southland , feels like home !! Try the Tomato Herb bagel , it's makes life worth living !!!! For lunch , the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich makes all other chicken sandwiches pale in comparison. GEAUX TIGERS read more

I have been excited to try Southland Bagel after they moved into their location on Southland! After hearing many good things about Southland Bagel from their beginnings selling at the Lexington Farmer's Market, my husband and I went to check out their new brick-and-mortar location! They have a lot of different sandwich options on their menu and it seems to be a good price for value. They even have a vegan cream "cheese" which I look forward to trying! The bagel types vary by day, so make sure to give them a follow on instagram to keep up! The only suggestion I have would be to remake their sign. Driving or walking by, I would have no idea what the shop is for, as the word "bagel" is very very small. I like the athletic-looking lettering style but it almost looks to me like a baseball store. Food for thought! read more

Cute little place. Supports local artists. Staff seems to be happy workers and are pleasant to customers. Latte is excellent. Bagel is fresh, soft and delicious. The vibe of the place is chill. Almost a FRIENDS kind of a vibe but a little downscale. If there's anything that will make this experience better would be plates and mugs for lattes if you are dining in. read more

Stumbled upon this bagel spot! I enjoyed this bagel a lot and was pumped to see they were also serving the new Strawmelon Ale-8 ones. I will be back! read more

Super cute restaurant, very nice staff, and great location! Unfortunately, their bagels weren't very fresh and they had already run out of lox by 9:45. read more

Absolutely excellent little bagel place! Food was delicious and the ambiance was nice. Staff are helpful!

I got online takeout, but I might just as well have perused the day-old bagel bags, which I wouldn't mind coming back for. The bagels I got were za'atar, and I liked the light dusting of spices they had better than some overwrought bagels of the same flavor I've had elsewhere. These were on the softer side, but with enough toughness on the outside to hold together. I toasted some of them, but they were also fine at room temperature. They had a few things other than bagels, but I suspect it's the bagels I'll be back for. read more

Top notch local spot doing good things in nice neighborhood perfect location for pre farmers market breakfast soon

The employees are nice but apparently don't read. Ordered two TOASTED plain cream cheese bagels And the three or four cheese sandwiches with the corny name on a PLAIN bagel. Waiting 35 mins for a to go order. The bagels weren't toasted and they put the sandwich on a brioche bun. 5 employees up front more in the back.....the wait time was just wayyy to long even though they were busy it was only to spread some cream cheese (not toast because they didn't) on two bagels and the Melt some cheese on the wrong bread I won't be back. Even if I had noticed before I left all three were wrong they were out of bagels.... Very irritating. read more

After living in Lexington for over 10 years and being a bagel lover, I can't believe I had never tried Southland Bagel! This will be my new spot because these bagels are SO good! Their online ordering is nice and easy for a pickup, or the staff inside is very helpful as well! Not a bad bagel to choose, you can't go wrong here. read more

Decided to switch up my usual place I get bagels from in an effort to try and support as many local businesses as possible. I was not disappointed! I got the Migos on a plain bagel with plain cream cheese. It comes with egg and bacon too. Delicious! Soft bread and big portions. Not too pricey either. I will make this my new bagel spot. read more

Fantastic bagels, lovely service, and all for an incredible value! We grabbed breakfast here twice when visiting my parents over the holidays. I ordered a breakfast sandwich with several ingredients swapped and appreciated that they made it so easy. They had a great variety of options and everything we tried was tasty. Plenty of room to sit inside, too! read more

Fantastic bagels and breakfast sandwiches which are around $7-11! They also have day-olds, 6 for $6, which last a few days before going stale in my experience. Similar experience to Great Bagel but much less pricey across the board, plus there's usually less of a line. Huge fan of this place, my only complaint is I wish their coffee came in larger sizes, but that's just me. read more

I would argue that this is one of the better bagel places here in Lexington. The bagels are great and consistent-- they don't skimp on the cream cheese. Not to mention they have one of my boyfriends favorites, goetta and my fav combo, cream cheese and egg. I prefer my eggs fried over how they scramble it but overall great bagels here! read more

If you're in the mood for some tasty bagels, check this place out! We ordered the Lox and Rocksteady. They were good and filling. I also ordered a vanilla latte. Easy to order online or you can order inside. I ordered in advance and picked up at the estimated time given. I appreciated that they made the latte when I arrived, ensuring that it would be nice and hot. read more

Stopped in for bagels and we were happy with the selection of bagels and the assortment of cream cheese and other toppings. I ordered a breakfast sandwich but they were out of sausage so substituted bacon. The bagel had a nice soft texture and was very good. Enjoyed the bacon and cheese on the sandwich as well. They have removed the tables but you can sit at a counter at the front window, so primarily take out at this point. read more

So my friend Victoria and I tried our cute little neighborhood bagel spot today and absolutely loved it! Because of covid we weren't allowed to eat inside but they did have curbside service available and we could also go inside and order and there was a couch where you could sit and wait. Also really cute merchandise for sale too (t-shirts, hoodies, coffee, 6 for $5 day old bagels, etc.). I got the after school special bagel which had pimento cheese, spicy pickles, tomato and spring mix and added grilled turkey to it on a poppy seed bagel with plain cream cheese on the side. I also got an iced cold brew with unsweetened vanilla flavoring (all flavors come unsweetened). I would have added almond milk but they didn't have any so I added that and some sweet n low when I got home and still was kind of disappointed. They definitely aren't known for their coffee lol which is why I had to knock them down a star lol. My friend got the migos which had bacon, egg and plain cream cheese on a poppy seed bagel and she also got a vanilla iced latte with regular milk. She ended up having to add almond milk and sweet n low to it but then it became too sweet so yah win some you lose some lol. Overall it was a yummy Sunday breakfast but I think we'll stick to our normal Starbucks iced chai lattes!! read more

Southland Bagel - After School Special Sandwich add turkey - Bagels Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Wanted to try out a new small business today and this place looked cute! I will say my husband and I were a bit disappointed. The coffee only came in 1 size, everything was unsweetened (which is fine for me but not him) and the coffee tasted burnt with little to none of the supposed ingredients. We only got one bagel and it was mediocre at best. The sausage tasted like it was vegan sausage and had an odd consistency. Honestly like a frozen fast food breakfast sandwich. For $20 I didn't think this was the best... read more

Great bagels! Love the easy ordering and pickup. The sweet treats are also awesome. Especially those little whopper cookies they make.

Awesome vibe and super friendly staff. The good food just makes it all the better. Tasty bagels and tons of things also made on bagels.

Overall: LOVED IT. Pros: great customer service, tons of plants and nerdy memorabilia in the shop, wonderful food, long neck glass bottle ale-8s here, they enforce mask mandates. Cons: I don't have a stomach bug enough to eat a whole bagel sammie. The Shinobi- wan in sesame with cream cheese was out of this world. Also had come here straight after Coffee Times and will never go back to Coffee Times (that's another post!!!) read more
