I think St. Paul Bagelry has the best bagels around. The name confuses me a bit since I frequent the location in Minneapolis, but I have been telling all my bagel-loving friends to go here. I often order a dozen to freeze, and sometimes will get the day-old bagels as well. You can order ahead too, which is nice if you are short on time. You can't go wrong with the Everything bagels - they have seasoning on all sides of the bagel! Highly recommend. read more

What a lovely spot to go on a weekend morning! I've heard of this place before, but just got to try it today. I loved it. I tried the lox and the build your own (turkey, provolone, and egg). It was amazing! I will definitely be back. The only thing to note is that it gets pretty busy, but you get your food quickly! Also parking is tough. You have to find street parking. read more

I tried one of their breakfast sandwiches on an asiago bagel and honestly it was incredible. The bagel itself was soft, fluffy, and had great flavor, and adding cream cheese made the sandwich even better. That said, I'd probably land at about 3.5 stars if I could. While the food really delivered, the iced latte unfortunately didn't. Maybe the espresso was burnt, but neither my fiancé or I were able to finish our lattes, which was disappointing, especially considering the price. Overall, I'd definitely go back for the bagels and sandwiches, but I might skip the coffee next time. read more

One of my favorite bagel places in the cities! Super yummy and reasonably priced. Love how they play music from vinyls. There isn't much seating so it does get kind of packed but they're very quick with their service so it's pretty easy to grab and go. read more

Noormally I get a Garlic bagel or Everything bagel with cream cheese, egg, and sausage. The service is good and I'm never waiting long for my order. There are some booths and tables to sit at, so if you want to not do to-go you can. read more

When I came to this spot it was absolutely PACKED but the line moved quickly and we got our food. I chose the build your own sandwich which was fun (I do wish they had heated my meat and cream cheese with the bagel before the veggie toppings though) other than that it was a yummy sandwich and we also got lattes as well. I definitely plan on coming back and trying more bagels! read more

Stopped by St. Paul Bagelry recently and I have to say, I loved their smoked salmon bagel sandwich. The portions were very generous, everything tasted fresh, and the bagel itself was excellent. Definitely a great spot for breakfast or brunch. Would highly recommend! read more

How have I not known about this place until now? Nice, central location right off diamond lake and Nicollet. Small inside but also plenty of seating and good for small groups. Lots of options and things to put on any bagel you can think of. The names are also super clever and themed by music legends! I was feeling basic that day and built my own sausage egg and cheese bagel which was good. It cost about what you'd expect for a breakfast sandwich. Staff were also kind and quick! If I'm feeling for a bagel sandwich again, would definitely return read more

I've tried both locations and find both of them to be consistently tasty! The Luther Vandross and pizza bagels are delicious. I got an iced chai and slurped it up. Our service was quick and sweet! I loved the touch of the records playing. Seating can be hard to get if you come at a busy time, but overall the atmosphere is great! read more

This place has easily become a favorite. They don't stay open late but they do open early. Depending on the time it can be a bit busy but the service is great. Street parking is usually fine. I'm not in love with their coffee but the bagels are amazing. Love love love the bagels and sandwiches. read more

As an east coast native living in the twin cities, this is the closest place I have found to a good bagel in the midwest. They have so many options and they are all super delicious. Service is decent, and if theres a line it moves by pretty fast. On the weekends it can get quite packed and theres not always a seat, but overall my fav place to get a bagel and I come here at least once a month. read more

I first tried St. Paul Bagelry bagels at a brunch event and was so impressed with the flavor, texture, soft interior, and crusty exterior. When I visited their shop in Minneapolis, I was slightly less impressed. I ordered an egg, cheddar, and sausage on an everything bagel. It was quite greasy and lacked flavor. I've had a better breakfast sandwich at Brueggers? I did appreciate their selection of yesterday's bagels, a half dozen for under five dollars. They do well in the freezer and can be reheated in the air fryer easily. Minnesota is not a bagel state, I'm aware, I just wanted to like this spot much more than I did! read more

I've been craving a lox bagel and St. Paul Bagelry satisfied that craving! I also ordered an iced vanilla latte and wasn't expecting much but it was DELICIOUS! I do wish the bacon and egg bagel had more egg/ filling. It felt a little flat, but it still tasted great. They had so many bagel and cream cheese options, I wish there was an option for a bagel flight! read more

Loved popping in here before a visit to the Museum of Russian Art just down the block. We visited in the afternoon before closing, so it was pretty chill. I imagine they are much busier in the mornings. Very clean, relaxed atmosphere. Service was friendly and quick. We ordered some hot teas and blueberry bagels, nothing complicated. The bagels were toasted well and had a great texture and taste. I wish I lived closer -- I'd definitely make this a regular stop if so. read more

Would recommend for a quick tasty breakfast spot. Tasted fresh and was made very quickly, you get your moneys worth as well.

I met a friend here for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. The dining room is nicely built out: inviting, light, and has a diner feel. It's like a modern version of a NYC delicatessen. Speaking of NY, I saw they had lox on the menu, and promptly ordered that with an everything bagel, a bag of chips, and a can of fruity San Pellegrino. To say that it didn't disappoint would be an injustice. I was in awe as I bit into this Lox sandwich. The lox was perfect: moist, full flavored, succulent. The bagel was soft, flavorful, and abundantly garnished in everything toppings. It is the best Lox sandwich in the cities, hands down. I might even say it's better than some Lox I've had in NYC and in LI. One thing of note is that you do have to fend for yourself with street parking. I parked across the street by the Garden Nursery. Luckily there weren't too many Christmas tree shoppers. If you're into bagel sandwiches, this is a pilgrimage. I will definitely be back to try the other fun sandwiches on the menu. read more

Growing up in NY, I've had my fair share of incredible bagels and after seeing a few TikTok's found around of some New Yorkers claiming these bagels were just as good as anything you'd get in NY, I knew I had to give it a try. When we came in on a beautiful Sunday morning, the place was packed with a long line almost out the door at some points. They offer a pretty wide selection of fresh made bagels, bagel sandwiches, and coffees (Dogwood). You order up at a cashier and then wait for your order to be ready. There are some indoor seating options there but the vast majority of their business is takeout. We ordered two bagels to share: a plain bagel with egg and cheese (pepper-jack) and an everything bagel with plain cream cheese. The bagels pictured very nicely with some nice airy insides and a good amount of cream cheese, and a nice cheese pull on the other. However, the bagels were super disappointing for me. A good bagel should be firm on the outside with a nice crust and soft on the inside. These bagels were just soft all the way through. The texture of the crust was the same as the inside. Similarly, not enough gluten development and so it lacked that special chew that a good bagel should provide. Tasted sort of like bread in the shape of a bagel as opposed to what a NY bagel is like. Overall, I'd say this is better than some of the other options in the city that I've tried, but this place doesn't hold a candle to anything the northeast has to offer. My search for a decent bagel in the Twin Cities continues. read more

Fire bagels from a local staple. We got the specialty bagels starting with the LutherVandross, the Lox, and the MacGuyver. The service was fast and friendly. The ambiance was unique with classic bangers playing. 10/10 Would recommend! read more

St Paul Bagelry is my go-to local spot if I am craving a bagel sandwich! The bagels are fresh, and i love the Italian zest of the St Paulie sandwich with hot salami, ham, pepperoni and provolone. They also serve Dogwood coffee, and you can also buy plain bagels with cream cheese. You order at the counter and can either take it home or eat there. There's sort of a diner vibe to the Mpls location, which is fun. The cashiers are typically very friendly as well. Mostly street and neighborhood parking is available, but I have never had issues snagging a spot. read more

Drove 25 minutes to get here. Picked up some of their Everything bagels at Whole Foods a week before, very similar to the NYC ones we love. Went there at 1pm on Super Bowl Sunday, they close at 2. Young woman behind the counter wasn't too eager to help. Wanted me to purchase day old bagels and to leave. While the bagels were good, I won't be back. Hard to park and poor service. read more

Great breakfast sandwiches and amazing coffee! Bagels are on the thinner side which I prefer, so not quite New York style bagels, but still great. Service was also great! read more

Stopped in for a quick sandwich on a Saturday morning - line was just a few people deep and they still had most of their flavors available around 10:30 or so. Sandwiches were served pretty quickly and are clearly made to order! They were solid bagels overall - one of the sandwiches was a bit greasy on the exterior and they could have had a bit more of a crust and chew but not too bad for a spot in MN! read more

Bagels like they should be Good chew good crisp not a bread roll that you get from some places selling "bagels" Not a ton of bagel varieties but a good number. A number of good sounding sandwiches. I had the lox on a toasted sesame seed bagel. It had the right amount of toppings-not too much, not too little. Lox was good also Overall a solid bagel place read more

Ordered online before heading out of town. The service was great and the bagels were delicious!

Great iced coffee and everything I've tried has been good. Super friendly staff. Definitely check it out

I'm going to start by saying that after living in NYC, my bagel expectation are HIGH. By Minnesota standards, the bagels at St. Paul Bagelry are more than acceptable, but I just find them a little disappointing. I've been a few times over the years and stopped by last week for a ham and cheese on everything bagel. They gave me one that had egg on it, which I wasn't super excited about but it was fine. Their bagels have decent height and are adequately chewy. My main issue is that they don't have much flavor. There is no wonderfully buttery flavor to the bagels and when I got home I ended up adding more everything bagel seasoning for some much needed flavor. Maybe it's the NYC water, but I'm going to keep looking for comparable bagels in Minneapolis. read more

I would have given a fourth star if it wasn't for the hair my wife found in her bagel, basically threw it out. Very disappointing because its the closest bagel shop to where we live. Actually, as I'm writing this I'm going to bump it down to two stars, sorry. If you don't mind the sanitation, the bagels weren't half bad. read more

This place is an easy stop in and get a sandwich. I understand the staff is a bit younger but they could give two sh..s if your sandwich is made with any intent or thought. I've been here twice now and both times they were out of bagels and out of lox, kind of a letdown. However with all that being said the bagels are well baked read more

I almost regret knowing how good their soy latte is because now I crave it. If you're familiar with Starbucks' soy latte, this is about 1/2 the sweetness with a higher grade of espresso. Absolutely delicious. They use Dogwood Coffee. As for the bagels...I've had them three times now. I'm not going gaga for them but they are good. I highly recommend asking for them double toasted. The breakfast sandwiches are decent but I'd be okay not eating one again. The cream cheese is delish. The staff is very friendly and well trained. I appreciate the the drink tastes the same each time!! I'm curious what others say about the bagels. I never post pics because I'm too busy eating! read more

A fun and reliable bagel joint! This place was hopping on a Saturday morning and as we were leaving the line was forming out the door!! My dining partner got the daily special and I made my own sandwich. My only notes were that I wish they had vegan cream cheese and the bagel was somewhat small. I appreciated the variety of bagels and toppings. Service is friendly and timely. Drip coffee was standard. My dining partner's latte was fine also. The decor celebrates music and features local artists. It was really cool to see the turntable and a bunch of records right next to the kitchen. We sat at the bar along the window and people watched while we ate our breakfast. read more

We just had the coffee which was pretty lukewarm but a bottomless large pot of decaf so that made me happy enough. It wasn't time for me to eat, but the bagels did look tasty. The music was record albums, so there would be a handful of loud Tina Turner songs and then nothing. Parking is tricky as it's on a busy street. Nice big booths to sprawl out in and free Wi-Fi so we could work on laptops which was nice and quiet except for the periodic Tina Turner! read more

Really good bagels, nice cafe. They're doing a great job making decent NY style bagels. Good cream cheese, friendly counter staff. Definitely worth a stop for a nosh! read more

Stopped in for coffee and breakfast on a Friday AM. This place is newer to the area. Parking was not too challenging since I was lucky to get a street spot right in front, but this area can be a challenge sometimes. The line did not move terribly fast, however knowing this place is newer, I figured it was still ironing through some operations. I ordered the Isaac hayes on a asiago bagel and an iced caramel latte. The latte was ready quickly, there was a wait on the sandwich. The coffee was super tasty and the sandwich was as well. Looking at the menu was hard to pick one, but I definitely plan on getting back here and trying a few more as well as some of their bagels sans sandwich. read more

Plenty of bagel options, plenty of cream cheese options, but more importantly tasty bagels. We stopped by on a random Sunday morning at 10am and there was already a small line out the door. However, it seemed that many of their customers probably came a lot earlier since the line pretty much dissipated after we hopped on, so in essence, we were late to the party. We loved that St. Paul Bagelry offered so many different bagel and cream cheese options and all of the bagels were right there behind the register for everyone to see. In addition, all of the cream cheese flavors (including seasonal ones) and breakfast house specials were listed too. Since this was probably going to be our only time here during our visit to Minneapolis, my wife and I decided to get 1 bagel breakfast sandwich and 1 bagel with cream cheese to share. We ended up with an everything bagel with egg, sausage and cheese and a blueberry bagel with caramel apple cream cheese, with the caramel apple cream cheese being their seasonal flavor for the fall. I'll go into more detail about both orders, but to summarize, both were excellent. For the everything bagel sandwich, the eggs, sausage and cheese are typically the highlight, but to our surprise, the bagel was what we loved when we were done. The everything bagel had so much flavor to it and with each bite it actually dominated the other ingredients. The bagel was small, but packed a heck of a delicious punch. It was arguably one of the best everything bagels we had ever eaten. As for the blueberry bagel with caramel apple cream cheese, this was also really good. The blueberry bagel was tasty, but we definitely tasted the caramel apple in the cream cheese, which was a good sign. This was the first time we ever tried this flavor of cream cheese and we were sure glad we went with it. Besides the delicious bagels and cream cheese, the service was very fast and there was ample seating inside the bagel shop. The place was relatively quiet and most of the customers were couples or families just enjoying a low-key breakfast. We're aware that there aren't many bagel shops in Minneapolis and the city isn't known as a bagel haven, but St. Paul Bagelry absolutely served some of the best bagels we have had anywhere. read more

Fairly new here, so haven't yet eaten many MPLS bagels. Bona fides: lived 2/3 of my life within sight of the Empire State Building and have tried ALL the bagels. So far, this is by miles the best shop here. Bagel very good--not insanely oversized, a little tang, a little chewy. Close to "classic." But the sandwich choices, and execution, are the best I've ever had. Veggies: crisp, cut super thin so eating isn't an adventure. Dressing: great. CC: delicious. The one to beat (though I'll keep trying)! read more
