The sliced lox bagel was inedible. Tiny shreds of brown salmon. Onion slices were ends. Tomatoes were ends as well. Everything bagel was too salty. This place is getting progressively worse. This is it. No more. read more

Mo was so kind and hospitable and the bagels were very fresh and plump. I live 30 minutes away but will definitely stop by when I am in this area. Thanks for the awesome experience! read more

Best bagels I've ever had! Soft and toasts nicely. Great friendly service! Prices are terrific!

Best bagels in the valley no question- fluffy and delicious and great spread options.

Simple and clean but straight to the point. On my bagel scale I would say a solid 7-7.5 based on NY bagels. Overall a great mom and pop spot, will definitely be coming back. read more

Such a good little bagel spot in Phoenix. You might want to call ahead and see if they are sold out if it's out of your way. The price is great and the owner couldn't be friendlier. Super fast service and the bagels are so fresh. read more

This spot is a hidden gem. Ambiance wise, it reminded us of the bagel shops back east. Upon entry the gentleman kinda gave us the heads up that it was cash only at the time because their system was down. We thankfully had some cash on hand to be able to partake in a yummy bagel. Lol. It was only 8:30a when we entered and WOW, there were only about a dozen of plain bagels left and ONE onion bagel. I'm personally really not a fan of plain bagels...like they are so...plain. lol so I opted for the onion bagel, toasted, with plain cream cheese to split. He toasted the bagel just enough where the outside layer has just enough crunch and the inside warm and chewy. My favorite part, he was SO generous with the cream cheese!!! :P that's how shops back home stuff their bagels and we miss that because out here, other places are so stingy with it. So, based on that, we will come back...next time much earlier AND bring more cash (just in case) so we can try more of his bagels and even flavored cream cheeses. xx read more

Came here at around 8:45 on a Friday (last day of my fall break!) and they were nearly sold out! Like less than 10 bagels left I think! Service was great and super fast. It's just a small place so good to get to go! I got a salt bagel toasted with veggie cream cheese. I will say it is not the prettiest bagel I've seen in my life, but wow it was very very delicious! Good amount of salt, cream cheese had the perfect amount of veggie. Nice and fluffy, would definitely come back! read more

Amazing place. Best bagel I have ever had. Prices are so reasonable. Service is quick and everyone is nice. Owner is incredibly passionate about his business and it is a joy to eat here. He offered me free coffee and I declined to which he insisted I take a free juice instead. Amazing people and place. read more

The Bagel Man - Cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese. - Delis Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

One of my friends (a native New Yorker) has been coming to The Bagel Man for YEARS! As in when there used to be an EOS next door. Make workout gains, then eat delicious gains with The Bagel Man. Anytime I've gone, I never have a chance to snap a pic of my breakfast because I'm generally too hungry to care (a rarity). The bagels are always fresh and he's got great options for a hearty breakfast sandwich or if you just need a face full of carbs... the bagels are HUGE! I'm a fan of the garlic or onion for a sandwich or a sweet blueberry bagel if going just for cream cheese or butter. Times are hard with rising costs, and I feel like I get good bang for my buck with Mr Bagel Man. In speaking with him, he's there just about everyday at 3am to provide us with homemade from-scratch deliciousness. With every bite, you'll taste The Bagel Man's love of his craft. It's nice to find a neighborhood spot in my new hood #TheTuke where you're guaranteed a smile and a full stomach. read more

The Bagel Man does it right! Looking for genuine boiled bagels? Got 'em! Nothing replaces the chewyness of a boiled bagel. I've tried baked bagels at other establishments before, but they just aren't the same. Their scrambled egg breakfast sandwich was delicious. I chose bacon as the "meat" which was crispy and piled high. The only drawback was that it was slightly greasy, but the flavor was definitely there. The Cinnamon Raisin bagel with butter was also good. It had a generous schmear of soft, creamy butter (maybe a bit too much). The butter had very little flavor and may have been unsalted. I wish The Bagel Man had greater availability in terms of hours , seating and flavors. They're open only five hours a day and closed entirely on Sundays. Also, the bagel flavor options are limited to start. On a 10:00am visit, most flavors (including Plain) were not available at all. There are no tables or chairs, so plan for take out only. All in all, The Bagel Man has great bagels and I look forward to visiting again. read more

We are from the West Valley and anytime we are heading over to the East Valley or even Tucson we have to stop by for the best BAGELS in the Valley. Is it worth the trip, YES! Is it worth the wait in line, YES! Is it worth getting up early to make sure we are there before he runs out, YES! read more

Great Bagels, great service and they are open at 5AM so the early morning crowd can get something to eat and a cup coffee before coffee.

These are some of the best bagels in the valley! They're big and fluffy on the inside with just the perfect amount of crunch on the crust. And the bagel to cream cheese ratio is perfection. The owners of the shop are so kind, happy and charismatic! I love coming here. It's like a boost a serotonin. read more

Bagel 5 - Great crust Service 2 - Owner had no greeting..just stared at me and said nothing. Reading other reviews, he seems to run hot and cold depending on??? Cream cheese 1 - Container had dried crust on rim when I opened it and it tasted old, sour. Averaged score 2.7 read more

Walking into Bagel Man is like stumbling into a carb lover's fever dream, where a husband-and-wife duo kneads, proofs, and bakes bagels so divine they'd make a sourdough starter blush. This family owned gem is proof positive that love, flour, and a hot oven can create magic and I'm already craving my next baker's dozen. Let's talk dough. These bagels are the gold standard of gluten, with a crust so crisp it crackles like a well-timed punchline and a chewy crumb that's denser than a stand-up comic's ego. The sesame bagel? A toasty, seed-studded masterpiece, each bite popping with nutty swagger. The everything bagel is a flavor mosh pit poppy seeds, garlic, onion, and salt doing a wild dance on your taste buds, like a bakery rave in full swing. The owners, a dynamic duo who could charm the gluten out of a celiac, run this shop like a well-proofed loaf: warm, inviting, and perfectly risen. Their smiles are as infectious as yeast in a warm kitchen, and they toss out bagel banter like seasoned bakers tossing dough. Bagel Man's got heart as big as their oven. Service is snappier than a fresh-baked crust. Absolute top tier, no crumbs left behind! read more

I have never experienced costumer service like they do it here. I have come in three times and they have exceeded my expectations more each time. We joke around and talk, they treat you like you are their family, but they make sure to get you fed and on with your day as well. Please if you ever need a bagel, support The Bagel Man! The bagels are truly delicious, so soft and plump. Mo, his wife, and the other workers here are absolutely phenomenal. I feel blessed to have found this place! I will always come back. It is simply unbeatable, I can't speak higher of this place. read more

Best bagels around! They are so nice and the bagels are amazing! FYI - make sure you go early bc they do sell out.

I got the Lox bagel with no onions and my fiancé got the blueberry bagel with strawberry cream cheese. The owner repeatedly asked about four times for our order, which was annoying. Not to mention we the only customers in the store at the time. The bagel was extremely hard making it difficult to chew. I would not recommend. read more

My husband and I were just in PHX for a few days and found this joint on here. Service is great! Order, grab and go. Bagels are fantastic! Freshly baked and beautiful. The owner acknowledges you and greets you as you walk in. I went one morning and got the Sausage & Eggs w/cheese on an Everything bagel. I definitely went back the next morning and ordered a Blueberry bagel loaded with cream cheese and a Lox w/tomatoes & onions on an Everything bagel. Go and Enjoy! read more

The Bagel Man - Turkey, Scrambled Egg and Cheese with Meat Breakfast Sandwich - Delis Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This is a great place with some tasty bagels! My students continually recommended the Bagel Man and today I finally stopped in. At around 7am on a Monday there was a nice selection of bagels, and the offerings for breakfast sandwiches all looked very tempting. I ended up going with my classic everything w/ lox combo and was not disappointed--the bagel itself wasn't too tough or too doughy and the amount of cream cheese was very generous. Everything was made right there & the owner rang me up quickly. This isn't a sit-down and chat with your friends kind of place. Rather, it's a low-key shop built for grabbing and going--and the quality of the bagels is such that you don't need anything else! read more

Step 1 - open your favorite maps app and enter "the bagel man" Step 2 - recoil at the distance it is from you on a lazy Saturday morning Step 3 - go through denial that you don't really "NEED" a good bagel today. Step 4 - start to wonder if you can take the easy route and be happy with a chitty bagel from somewhere else. Step 5 - you come to your senses and pour yourself a big water. You get your butt in the car, and get a proper bagel at The Bagel Man. If you can find better, please DM me but I've yet to find it not just in EV but in AZ. read more

This use to be a 5 star place but the business was sold, the quality of the bagels is still good but this was a very sad excuse for a blue berry bagel read more

This place has been here much much longer than my knowledge. I used to work next door when it was a Greek restaurant and never had the pleasure of trying the place out because they're open 6-11 am and I didn't come into work until 11 am. The owner is very nice and the business has a very loyal customer base. I went in before close so there was only 3 different bagels to choose from! Gotta get there early to get all the flavors. My lox bagel was amazing I still have the other half. My friend had the sexy and loved it. We tried this cake thing too. Don't know what kind it is but it's delicious. I love bagels. Can't wait to go back read more

Always heard good things about this place. Was not impressed with service or food. Lady at the register never made eye contact or smiled. I asked for a bagel double toasted. Bagel was cold and didn't appear to be toasted at all. Restaurant seemed filthy. Creamers were in a red, what looked like cleaning bucket with ice to keep cold, I assume. 1 will not go back read more

Seems like they changed ownership. The quality is nowhere near what it used to be and they no longer have bacon or Taylor ham. A good bagel is supposed to have a nice chew to them, these bagels were cold and soft. I got the lox sandwich and was weirded out when I saw that the lox was chopped up into pieces instead of sliced - probably because they're using lower quality lox. I have very low expectations for the coffee at bagel spots, but this iced coffee was abysmal. Although a bit out of the way, I'll only be going to Bongiorno Bagels in Gilbert from now on. read more

Quality of product is incomparable- they make bagels well and they are hands down the best! Awesome people!

Classic bagels, great size and texture. Staff were so welcoming. Small menu but straight to the point!

Hands down the best bagels in the Valley! Perfectly crisp on the outside with that soft, chewy interior that makes a great bagel truly stand out. I usually go for the Lox & Works--it never disappoints--but I've heard great things about their breakfast sandwiches. Can't wait to branch out and try them next time! read more

Truly the best bagel shop and the kindest people working in there. A must go if you want good east coast cozy atmosphere while you wait for delicious bagels read more
