I'll be dreaming about these bagels until my next time in Dallas. I was strolling around the area and came across Starship Bagel, located by the big eyeball in Dallas, you can't miss it. I kept noticing how it got so much traction from people on their breaks/also strolling the area, and I decided to give their egg bagels a try. And let me tell you, I was pleasantly surprised and impressed by how delicious my toasted bagel was. I order the egg bagel with scallions cream cheese and it was perfect. I was delighted by every bite, so much so, that my coworker and I ran back before they closed so she could order the same thing. I'm not from the Dallas area, so I ordered 10 bagels to go and the owner graciously threw in more bagels for me to try and share with my coworker. Thank you so much to the Starship bagel team. Excellent customer service! I can't wait to come back to Dallas just to be reunited with these bagels. Perfectly toasted, they had a nice bite, delicious flavor that reminded of the bagels I used to buy as a kid in Brooklyn. Starship is also located in a perfect area where you can sit and bask in the perfect atmosphere. Can't wait to come back and try their eggything bagels. read more

Ordered the 30 Bagel + 6 Schmear box for the office and these were a total hit! My coworkers were excited to try these and provided rave reviews. The price was pretty fair in my opinion. I do want to mention though that even though the preordering website advertises "skipping the line," I still had to wait in line with everyone else even though I had scheduled a preorder pickup. Just a heads up to plan accordingly. read more

We came right before close- which meant the bagels were already picked over. I wound up getting the salt bagel. Not my first choice but WOW! I'm so glad I did! It was so delicious, sprinkled with crisp Maldon salt and nice and crusty. Absolutely delicious. I saw a girl with just a buttered bagel and thought she was crazy since there is so many topping choices, but once I tasted the bagel I realized they really don't even need anything else. Next time, I'm def trying her way too. Service was easy and nice even though it was almost closing time. Sitting in the sun eating your bagel is a great way to spend your time in Dallas. If you're in the area, stop by 100% read more

A Pretty Good Bagel Shop, But Not Quite Worth the Hype... After hearing so many people rave about Starship Bagel, namely my husband, we decided to finally give it a try -- and we really went out of our way to do it. We drove about 40 minutes to get there, and once we arrived, we had to park pretty far away because there was basically no parking anywhere close. By the time we made the long walk and finally got in line, we were definitely hoping the experience would match all the hype. The bagels were fresh with a nice chew, and the flavors were decent. Everything we tried was perfectly fine, just not the standout, "you have to go here" level we kept hearing about. We didn't get any of their sandwiches, just bagels and smear. Garlic, salt and everything. None were anything to write home about. What really threw the experience off, though, was when another customer grabbed my order off the counter thinking it was theirs, thumbed through my food, and then just set it back down. When I pointed it out, the worker didn't seem to care at all -- no apology, no remake, nothing. It definitely took away from the overall visit. In the end, it was an okay spot with some good qualities, but between the long drive, the parking situation, and that awkward moment with my order, it just didn't feel worth the hype. Probably fine if you're already in the area, but not something I'd go out of my way for again. read more

So I have not been to the actual location for starship bagels, but I have had starship bagels at Ascension coffee. Apparently starship partners with local cafés and coffee shops, and the cafes and coffee shops are able to sell these great bagels. So while I have been here in the Dallas area, I have tried several different brands of local bagels and so far starship is the best. I can't believe I'm craving them. They have that great chew that tastes fantastic all by itself. You don't even need to put anything on these bagels, so this alone has made me want to go and hunt down the closest starship bagel place and go in and experience it. I have had three starship bagels since I've been here all different varieties and they always hit all the right notes the beautiful outside finish and the chewiey inside just as a bagel should be. read more

It's worth the hype lol I hate going downtown and for a bagel.. but it's sooo good. I wanted to not like it but the cream cheeses are so unique and delicious. The bagels have a nice chew and flavor. read more

Didn't realize this local bagel shop had won multiple awards and was even featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives -- definitely a fun find! Service was friendly and semi-quick, and the spot is conveniently located just down the street from where we stayed. It's more of a grab-and-go place, but there are a few outdoor tables if you want to sit and eat. The alleyway has a nice vibe with fun decor, and the gigantic eyeball sculpture across the way makes for a cool landmark. We tried the Supernova Lox & Bagel -- the toppings were fresh and flavorful, but the bagel itself was surprisingly hard. Coffee was solid for a basic drip -- not bold, but good enough for a morning pick-me-up. read more

Truly the best bagels I've ever had--definitely lives up to the hype! The best combo was pretzel bagel with honey almond cream cheese. The basil cream was a close second, so so savory and flavorful! The pickled jalapeño cream cheese was also good, but didn't taste too pickled. I would recommend taking the dart or walking to this location since parking is difficult. There is also only outdoor seating, but the area is very nice! read more

Average bagel. Don't know what all the hype is about. The actual bagel was fine, online ordering a lot of items were sold out but when you got there it seemed they had them. Got the Supernova - barely any lox in it - I could hardly even see it, looked like all tomato. Did the Millennium Falcon as well, the sprouts smelled foisty. Not fussed about coming back. Nice storefront. Difficult street parking downtown. read more

We came here on a weekend morning and there was a steady line of customers. They do the orders in the order they are made, and so even if you have a simple bagel, your order might take longer behind someone ordering 10 sandwiches, which is what happened to me. I ordered the everything bagel with chive cream cheese and it had so much flavor. The bagel had so many spices on it and it was the perfect everything bagel. It was soft on the inside and somewhat crunchy on the outside. I asked how the olive cream cheese was and she let me Sample it, which was pretty good overall as well - tasted like olives mixed in with cream cheese. My partner from New York said it was pretty good for a bagel in Texas. Overall this place is solid and there are about 4-5 small tables in front of the stand (there is no indoor seating). Would recommend this place, which seems to be a small chain around at least the Dallas, Texas area. read more

Starship Bagel - Everything bagel with chive cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I've been to New York and I've had their bagels and it's one of the perks about living in New York to have great bagels, even from a gas stations. Haven't said that, I tried to find the best bagel, and it's not that easy. Tried a highly rated place. And it was good, maybe very good. But it was being held back, somehow by the culinary editing. The best bagel I ever ate in my life, came from a little hole in the wall in front of the legendary pizzeria Di Fara's in Brooklin. It was called Bagel Hole. And it was a Jewish orthodox establishment. Small plain bagel. Kind of sad looking. Plain cream cheese Religious experience. You never know when something's gonna surprise you. About Starship Bagels. They won a blind test at Bagel Fest against New York bagels. That's a great accomplishment. These guys have different locations. I don't know if that affects anything. The bagels look great. The toppings on top of the Everything bagel were the best I've ever had. And their signature bagel, the millennial falcon is an awesome creation. Their fermented jalapeño cream cheese is probably the go to. But with bagels, and this is important, different schmears go best with different bagels. And it's a personal trial and error thing. Although there are established classics. Starship bagels has all the ingredients to be great. I liked their lox bagel better than the one in New York. That's high praise. And the millennial falcon is a beauty. But I don't know if it is because we got them toasted. I'll try them untoasted next time. But the bagels were a bit too chewy kinda like when you put something in the microwave for too long. Still the best bagels I've had in Texas! Worth the trip read more

Pro-tip: Starship is accessible by many downtown hotels. Plan time for a morning run or stroll, on your way to fuel up with a loaded bagel. Service: quick, friendly, and easy Ambiance: right in the park of the Giant Eyeball Food: The super nova lox was great! Stacked with lox, cucumbers, red onion, capers, tomatoes, and of course the schmear (cream cheese). Toasting adds an extra texture to the mix! read more

This is a solid walk up and order bagel joint. Ignore the folks on here that are made it won best bagel in the US but it didn't change their life when they had it- it's a bagel place let's try not to be pricks here. Solid bagel would recommends the lox or millennial falcon. Good assortment of bagels and schmears. This is a really solid place having the best bagel in US award recently makes it really hard to hold up to expectations but if you're hungry and want this type of food I don't think you would be disappointed if holding realistic view. Coffee wasn't anything crazy to write home about but my group seemed to like the lattes read more

Starship Bagel - Millennial Falcon - Bagels Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This place isn't worth the hassle, unless you're downtown and can walk to it. I've ate bagels across the country and this place didn't live up to the hype. Got the lox, barely any lox in it, I paid $4 in NYC for a lox bagel and that thing was loaded! This one, you could barely see the lox, it was all cream cheese and tomato. Didn't care for the Millennium Falcon either, veg didn't seem very fresh. Won't be coming back. read more

The location can be a tad bit confusing as it's not directly off of a main street. It's located near the Woolworth and tucked in the adorable cobblestone road. The bagels and spreads were delicious, and the service was fast which we appreciated compared to other bagel shops with longer wait times! They did have a decent amount of sold out bagels on a Saturday morning by 10am, so be sure to order early as it's clearly a hot commodity for a multitude of great reasons. read more

This Dallas-based bagel shop truly earned its recent "Best Bagels" win, beating out even some of the most well-known spots in New York. The line is long, but don't let that scare you away -- it moves quickly and the wait is worth it. My toasted bagel was perfectly done, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They also have a great happy hour, which is a fun bonus in the middle of downtown. Guy Fieri tried Starship bagel before, and I ordered the same thing he tried -- and it absolutely did not disappoint. The shop sits in the heart of downtown Dallas, so parking can be a bit challenging, but the location is unbeatable. It's right next to the iconic Dallas Eyeball Sculpture and steps away from major shopping destinations like Forty Five Ten, the original Neiman Marcus, and Traffic LA. A must-visit for any bagel lover in the city. read more

Starship Bagel - Supernova locs on an everything bagel with scallion cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Starship Bagel is a downtown Dallas time machine served in a compostable box. Listen, I walked into Starship Bagel expecting another hipster fever dream, another place where they put avocado on everything and call it innovation. But sometimes the universe surprises you with something real, something that cuts through the bullshit and delivers straight to your soul. The garlic bagel arrives like a heavyweight champion entering the ring. Dense, chewy, with that perfect crust that gives way to a tender interior. This isn't some artisanal pretender; this is the real deal, the kind of bagel that would make my grandmother weep tears of joy if she were still around to taste it. And then there's the lox. Christ. That silky, salty embrace of the sea, draped across cream cheese spread with the kind of reverence reserved for religious ceremonies. One bite and I'm transported back to those Sunday mornings in college, sitting across from my Jewish ex girlfriend in her tiny kitchen, learning the sacred ritual of bagel construction from a girl who took this stuff seriously. Her people had perfected this dance centuries before I was even a thought. I thought I was done with lox after we broke up. Thought it would always taste like heartbreak and missed opportunities. But Starship Bagel brought me back to that first revelation, that moment when everything clicked and I understood why an entire culture built Sunday mornings around this perfect combination. The cream cheese isn't some afterthought slapped on by a hungover college kid. It's applied with intention, with respect for the craft. Generous but not reckless. They understand the architecture here, the delicate balance between base and topping that makes or breaks the whole experience. Sure, Starship might have a trendy name and a Instagram worthy presentation, but underneath all that, they get it. They respect the fundamentals. In a city where every corner deli thinks they can phone it in, where mediocrity masquerades as authenticity to uncultured white moms of Dallas, these cats are doing it right. This is what happens when reverence meets technique. When someone actually gives a damn about getting it perfect instead of just getting it out the door. The result is nothing short of transcendent, a reminder that some combinations are holy, untouchable, and when done right, can bring you right back to who you were before the world got complicated. Five stars. Go. Eat. Remember what it feels like to be surprised by something beautiful!! read more

Got a plain bagel with a side of almond schmear. The bagel itself was a bit of a letdown. It was extremely tough, making it hard to enjoy. However, the honey almond schmear was a definite highlight! It had big chunks of almond and wasn't overly sweet, which I really appreciated. It paired well with the bagel, even if the texture of the bagel itself wasn't my favorite. Overall, I'd be willing to try again. The schmear is definitely worth coming back for though! read more

I do NOT know what the hype was. It tastes like a typical bagel like any bagel you would get at Costco. I'm so annoyed I stayed in line for 20 min and then another 30 min after for them to make a plain bagel with cream cheese. NOT worth the wait. There are other brunch spots close to the area with way better bagels. Don't believe in on the viral stuff you see online! read more

My son and I were out walking when we stumbled across Starship Bagels in Dallas for the first time. It caught our attention, so we wandered in, even though it was later in the morning and they were out of an everything bagel. The selection was limited, so I told myself I'd just go with a plain bagel. Then Brooke stepped in--with a radiant smile and the most uplifting attitude. She looked at me and said, "Are you sure you want a plain bagel? I feel like I can't let you do that to yourself." And she was absolutely right. She suggested an onion bagel and asked about toppings with so much genuine care, like it truly mattered to her that I had something a little more special. I settled in, trusted her advice, and I'm so glad I did. What could've been a small, forgettable moment turned into something that lifted my day. Brooke, you have a contagious energy. Keep shining. Keep showing up just as you are. In a world that often overlooks what matters most--the people--you remind us just how important kindness, joy, and human connection really are. Thank you for being you. read more

Overrated. Spent $14 plus tax + kiosk tip (no table service) for the supernova lox bagel, asked for it to be lightly toasted with extra tomato. There were two slices of tomato, one of them an end slice, but no toasting at all (They did cut it in half as I asked, but I believe that's just their typical presentation.) Definitely not worth the hype. Back to Cindi's, which is closer to my house anyway and superior to every deli I ever visited in NYC in every way. read more

Starship is one of my fave bagel shops. Anytime my mom visits, she requests to come here and always remarks about how her experience is similar to when she grew up in the tri-state area.

I appreciate how quickly the line moves and their recommendations (if something is out for the day). read more

We had the Millennial Falcon and I could not have been more surprised and delighted about how scrumptious this bagel was!! The quality of the ingredients is great and the balance of flavors is perfect. I couldn't believe how excited I was over a bagel! This was our first visit, so I cannot wait to go back for more! It was very busy, but I noticed that periodically the order taker would pause to get out orders as they became ready. I really appreciated this attention to detail. Some places just let you wait and wait while they take orders not caring that your food is ready and just sitting there. read more

I so badly wanted my experience to be great. It seems like they have been recognized in some of the magazines but maybe the magazines were paid to feature them or they just don't like me. I ordered a lox bagel deconstructed. Super easy to order online and just pick up. The pickup went smoothly however when I got home, there were no lox! I go to the website, see a phone number and no one answers. I then notice the website ask that we text them. I texted them and it's been 24 hours with no answer. I give up. I've spent enough time and energy on one business. I've yet to have a visit that didn't end well: either no bagels, closed without any notice and now missing major items in to go orders. I've really tried to give them a chance but my experience is 1 star for ease of ordering and 1 star for friendly faces at pickup. read more

Easy to find on Elm. No traffic on Sunday, and we found free street parking right next to it. Starship Bagel is on a pedestrian way and has a few tables and chairs out front. These go fast, so het their early, bring a friend to camp out and hold your table while you wait in line. Oh yes, there will be a line. The line will be long until they run out. They will let everyone know when they run out of bagels. We were fortunate because the bagel man brought a cart full of more bagels about 20 minutes later. We waited and were nearly first in line by the time he arrived. Most people dispersed and came back later. The second run selection was unknown and limited, but we managed to get what we wanted. No toasting allowed! This made my hubby sad, but we understood the company's need to get through the line of people as quickly as possible. Toasting a bagel for each customer would have added several more minutes to waiting in line. No one would have been happy about that. We both got the Starship Super Nova m, salmon on top of a schmear and bagel of our choice. I chose a plain bagel but topped it with a jalapeño schmear. Loved it! Also loved the Zaatar bagel that I bought just to try later. Oh so good and making me want to return for more. read more

I came to Starship Bagel hungry for a good breakfast. I left with so much more. As soon as I arrived, I was greeted by warm and friendly staff. The bagels were indeed top notch, as well as the wonderful selection of schmears. At first bite you can tell right away the level of love and care that went into each morsel. I can honestly say that I have never had a better bagel. The coffee was top notch, and I normally don't even like coffee. Smooth and perfect. I had to get some bagels to go; I knew I would regret not doing so. If you like bagels, friendly service, and a cool vibe, this is the spot for you. I can't praise Starship highly enough. I've seen a lot of wonderful reviews, and some negative ones. I'd like to note that they make their bagels fresh. It is possible that they run out eventually for the day, but that is part of the quality of the food: made fresh and truly delicious. I encourage you to not believe the haters (people will always find something to complain about) and give it a try for yourself. May they inspire all concerning what is possible. 10/10. Thank you, Starship Bagel! read more
