The wood-fired bagels make all the difference - you get that perfect crust on the outside and a chewy, flavorful center that feels like someone actually cared while making it. The space has character too. The art by Kylar Mertz on the walls gives the place a creative, local feel that makes it more than just a grab-and-go breakfast stop. Yes, there's usually a wait. But it moves, and honestly, it's worth every minute. When food is this good, a short line just feels like confirmation you picked the right place.

Felt like I needed a little more to start the morning so we got a couple of breakfast sandwiches, which gave me the fuel I needed to start the day. They did a surprisingly great job on the latte and mocha as well. The staff was so nice and made my latte just how I like it. All of my friends were very happy with the bagel options. I definitely recommend getting the honey walnut cream cheese and trying it out. I've been having it every day since because it's so delicious. Plenty of places to sit down and eat as well or can grab and go if you need to. I will definitely think the blue sky the next time I need a good morning treat for a group of people.

I stopped by Blue Sky Bagels on a recent Friday morning with my husband…read more.. We stood in line at the register for awhile before being acknowledged and then figured out on our own that we needed to go to the other side of the counter to place our order. Once we made our way there, we waited a bit longer and then ordered a bagel toasted with salmon cream cheese -- and then back to the original line we were in to order an iced coffee with oat milk. Service was okay... not the friendliest (as others have said, perhaps a bit overwhelmed or shorthanded?) and the bagel and coffee were also just okay. I was hoping for better, but this place has potential and perhaps we were there on just an off morning. I would return if in the area and seeking a bagel, but probably would not go out of my way.

Here are some initial results from the great bagel search of Southern Idaho…read more The same Lox and bagel sandwich with two extra bagels that Freedom Bagel Bakery charged $17.46 was $12.43 at Blue Sky Bagels. Same stuff at both locations, onion bagel, lox, tomato, thin sliced red onion, cream cheese and capers. This sandwich did not have the huge saltiness of Freedom Bagel bakery. The difference of nearly $5 could be used to buy almost a dozen of "day old" bagels at Blue Sky. I liked the way Blue Sky Bagel sells their bagels the next day when they make too many. This is a very common practice with bagel shops across America. One has to wonder why Freedom Bagel Bakery didn't have some bags of "day old" bagels for sale during my visit. Could Freedom actually know exactly how many bagels to make? Because if they do, thousands of bagel shops across this country would love to know the secret. Hey, who can't eat a reheated, day old bagel? The cost is better and the taste is better than supermarket bagels, even the ones made in the market's bakery, like Albertson's. America, give up your supermarket bagels and shop your local bagel maker.

Multiple pieces of perfectly crispy bacon, plenty of herbed cream cheese, definitely more than just one egg, looks to be about 2 (No egg patties, cooked in store). There's even a piece of cheddar cheese melted on top of the bagel, so yummy! I will choose Sarah's bagels over Blue Sky moving forward. For the same price, Sarah's gives you homemade with quality ingredients, while Blue Sky only house makes bagels/"schmear", and uses low quality Sysco ingredients (frozen egg patties, icky/not crispy/low quality bacon, etc.). The bagels are just straight up better at Sarah's, too.

We didn't do our Sunday ritual today and go to Moon's downtown. My husband and I were out running…read moreerrands in Meridian so we decided to keep breakfast easy this morning and head to Sarah's bagel shop. I have been to the downtown location and had such a good experience there. The staff there was so friendly! Unfortunately, today's visit at it's sister location was not the same. Walking in, the joint is really bright and clean. I appreciate the huge menu boards of all their items. Everything looked so good at first glance in the display case. We hung out for a second going over everything when the employees started coming out. We weren't really greeted. No one really said hi. Finally a gentleman stood there to take our order. I got my husband's order taken care of. I still needed a minute and finally decided on my sandwich. And this is when things really started to go down hill. We stood at the counter waiting to pay. Waiting, waiting, standing there like a couple idiots. The young gal behind the counter let some other customer cut us off and pay for some random drinks. And then we just stood there. I asked the gal if she was going to ring us up and she said no. "Go sit down and you pay when you get your food". Well, that would have been nice to know if someone would have told us that in the first place. We finally paid for our order, got our food and a table. For brunch I grabbed a tasty turkey sammy on a croissant. My husband got a egg, ham and cheese on a croissant. We also snagged a couple smoothies. We got lemon mango and peach. Our sandwiches were nicely made. My sandwich had fresh veggies in it, a good amount of turkey and the herb cream cheese was savory. My husband devoured his breakfast sammy. The croissant was buttery and soft. It honestly was a great sandwich. If you're planning on selling boba in your teas, coffees and smoothies, please make sure the boba pearls are edible. It was amazing how many uncooked boba pearls were on the bottom of my smoothie. Hard, inedible pearls. How embarrassing. I didn't even order them in my smoothie but I got them. I paid for inedible boba pearls so make sure you specify if you want them or not. As gross as they were, I would recommend a hard no on the boba pearls. The smoothies itself were good. The lemon mango was refreshing even though it was thick and hearty. The peach smoothie was really tasty as well. They are gracious with their sizes. I got medium and barely drank half. I will say their smoothies are pretty legit. As good as the sammys were, I just can't get over the rude staff and my hard boba pearls. For me, I rate on the whole experience and I just can't go higher than a 2. Communication with your customers is so important and clearly this joint lacks it. So basic but not given here. I'll stick to the downtown location for my future Sarah's bagel visits from now on. I want to enjoy my food that's prepared by a nice staff.

I've been here twice now, and I wish there was a location closer to Boise so I could go more often!…read more The folks at the counter were very friendly and helpful each time I've gone, I usually can't decide between different drinks to try so I have questions, and they've been kind in helping me choose. The last time I went I tried the gingerbread latte - this was hands down THE BEST gingerbread latte I've ever had! I'm so bummed it's seasonal and that they aren't closer to me so I can enjoy it more before it's gone. I did enjoy their breakfast burrito, it is a smidge expensive, but it's solid. My partner is a black coffee drinker and he likes their Fruit Snacks brew for drip, says it's one of the best black coffees he's found in a while. The ambiance is very relaxed, the swing chairs are such a unique idea (at least in my experience) and they give the shop a fun vibe. I kind of wish they were in just a little bit bigger location, the last time I went it was fairly full inside and it would be great if they had a few more spots for comfy reading chairs - I would love to grab some snacks, a couple of drinks, and spend an hour or two reading there. It's definitely a warm environment and any time I'm in the area, I plan to head back.
