    Stopped by for a mocheese bagel and loved it! The mochi was chewy but there were crispy cheese pieces on the edges too!

    This shop offers unique bagels and cream cheeses. The service is so quick and friendly! I ordered the garlic butter cream cheese bagel. Wow! The bagel was warm, and the garlic butter melted into the bagel, making it soft and chewy. Both the flavour and texture were amazing! I can't wait to try more flavours!

    What a great experience. We found this bagel spot on Yelp and it was right across the street from our Hyatt hotel. It is inside a business building and you'll have to go down stairs. The staff were so kind and had a beautiful display of the bagels. Red bean with cream cheese is a fan favorite so I had to try it. My husband had the garlic bread bagel. They were both delicious. We had never had Japanese infused bagels- never even heard of it. Let me say they were wonderful. We also thought the freezer with Japanese teas and sodas were a nice addition.

    I personally don't eat a lot of bread but I passed this area with my friend who had great things to say about their bagels. I got the Mocheese and Ume Bacon bagel and the staff kindly got it toasted for me. I think the concept of a Japanese-style bagel is really cool and the flavors were all very unique. However, the texture of the mochi bagel from a regular bagel was not too different! I am not sure when I'd go back, but I might try one of their sweet options! 3.5/5

    My favourite breakfast place. I love their fresh garlic butter cream cheese with green tea in the morning. Their bagel has a great balance of chewy from mochi dough and its flavour. You can ask them to heat up any bagel and I highly recommend you do so. It enhances the taste if you are going to eat immediately. Some other of my top ones are: matcha mochi red bean and matcha cream cheese. Some bagels seem to have less stuffing inside than the others and I'm not sure if it depends on type of just an inconsistent batch. Their sandwiches are worth trying but I prefer their fresh bagel anytime. There is a small fridge with their fresh cream cheese and a mix of japanese drinks and local brand lemonade. Really good selection. Also if you are craving for small snack, they also sell some Japanese snacks there too.

    I had the pleasure of eating here twice in one week. I normally don't work downtown, but had to and the chewiness of the bagel is simply heavenly. Staff are very efficient, friendly and quick, and I found the prices very reasonable for the unique aspect of these bagels. I've now tried the garlic cream cheese, the red, bean cream cheese, and the Pacific sandwich and all were amazing. I definitely am more of a savoury person so I highly recommend the garlic cream cheese as a snack. There is a very unique seating area that isn't owned by this bagel shop but a shared space... I found it quite cozy, sleek, and comfortable.

    Red bean and cream cheese

    We got our bagels right when they came out of the oven. Talk about fresh. These pillowy bagels are like no others; they have unique flavors and this red bean is the perfect blend of sweet and salty. I also ordered the matcha latte which was also balanced to perfection. Luckily, they have a nice eating section so you can escape the cold and relax a bit. They give you the bagel instantly so not much waiting, and they are so nice as well. This is an easy pick me up spot before you go about your day. :)

    WA-Bagel was absolutely a winner. I decided to try a new place for our office annual breakfast meeting. I called and Yukiko the head baker was patient and answered all my questions. I had questions on timing, delivery, earlier options, if we can order online first and call back to change. We ended up ordering the beef sandwiches, smoked salmon sandwiches, veggie sandwiches and assorted Japanese bagels with cream cheese. The amount of comments from everyone was endless. "Where did you order this?" "Can I see the brochure or website?" Needless to say it was a huge hit. There were zero complaints and now repeat customers. The bagel was soft and chewy with interesting fillings such as apple pie, mochi matcha or ume bacon. The sandwiches were a hit with the crowd favorite being the smoked salmon. It has a big layer of cream cheese, pickled onions, arugula and of course tons of smoked salmon.

    Some of the choices

    This place is sooooo good. I'm a bagel aficionado and this place hands down best I've ever had. So unique. Don't let the interesting names of the bagels scare you.

    Mo-cheese bagel

    Quick and sufficient! Located at the basement level so it's a bit hard to find. I ordered Mo-cheese bagel and it came out great.

    Love this Japanese bagel shop! It offers a variety of bagel options and is hard to find. My family and I had a great time trying out different kinds of bagels. Kinako Chocolate: this is not a typical chocolate bagel, the filling is a mixture of soybean powder and chocolate. The bagel is not too sweet and heavy! It had a nutty taste. Definitely recommend this if you want a sweet treat for your meal. Sweet potato & Black Sesame: another amazing combination! The sweet potato filing paired well with the black sesame on top, the sesame seeds add a rich nutty flavor. The filling is not overly sweet, more like the sweetness from the sweet potato itself. I love sweet potatoes, so this was definitely my favorite. Mochi Matcha: I'm not a fan of mochi, but still ordered this bagel since I couldn't resist my love for matcha. And I'm really glad I got this! The mochi wasn't hard to swallow and chew like I have imagined, and it was evenly and thinly distributed. The matcha flavor was subtle(which I'm really glad), so you can still taste the red bean paste. The red bean filling offers a nice touch of sweetness and the walnuts add a nice crunch and nutty flavor to it. Really recommend this one! Pumpkin: I love pumpkin and this was great as well, but it didn't stand out among the others! There's no pumpkin filling in this, instead the dough is mixed with pumpkins. Therefore, this bagel seems a bit typical among the others that I have tried. The bagel itself is nice and chewy, you can still taste a hint of sweetness and pumpkin flavor. If you don't like filling, then this one will be a good choice. Montreal: my dad ordered this sandwich, he thinks it was just alright (not super amazing). He didn't enjoy the cold pickle it came with, he described as it just came out from the fridge. The texture of all the bagels is just super soft and chewy! Not the typical bagels we find in the states. There are so many different kinds, so I'm sure you can find the one you like. The staffs are all super friendly and welcoming. They also have drinks and coffee. There are seats and tables, so it is a great place to stop by for a quick meal and chat. If you don't live or work around the area then the store might be hard to find, it is located inside of a business building. You will see a small sign outside of the building, the store is downstairs of the first floor. It took me awhile to find, but I think it is definitely worth it!

    A japanese take on bagels, which have a very different chew and softness level versus montreal or new york style bagel. I love all the unique flavours that they have, plus the fact that they're seasonal. We got the matcha mochi and red bean & cream cheese for around $5, which had a nice japanese twist to them. Probably will stick to their sweet offering as I feel like I would prefer a more traditional dough for bagel sandwiches. Btw, this place came before a bit hard to find as it's located on the basement floor of an office building. I noticed they recently posted notice boards outside to help guide visitors.

    Garlic butter cream cheese bagel. Sooo good!

They've been around since 1990 and are known for their Montreal-style bagels and smoked meat, with bagels baked in a traditional flame oven using fresh ingredients. We arrived late in the day, near closing so by the time we got there, they had already sold out of a few bagel varieties. You can keep it simple and order bagels and flavored cream cheeses, or go for deli items and full sandwiches featuring Montreal smoked meat. I went with the regular Montreal smoked meat sandwich. It didn't take long to prepare, and we took our food over to the market's dining area. The portion was generous and came with a pickle on the side. The bagel itself tasted fairly standard to me--though to be fair, it was the end of the day--but the smoked meat was the real highlight: moist, tender, and full of flavor. That's the part I kept going back to bite after bite. Overall, I'm glad we stopped by. It's an easy, satisfying market meal and a great way to try a bit of Montreal-style deli culture in Vancouver. Next time, I'd definitely go earlier in the day for the full selection.

Came in the afternoon. There was so line whatsoever, no one before or after me. Looked like they had some online orders. The lady who took my order was impatient when I was ordering and kept rolled her eyes when I asked if there was anything else I should try. So I only ended up ordering the one popular bagel I see everyone get. Pick up was awkward, they didn't call out a number or wave me over. They just left it on the counter till I asked. I stood near them the whole time so I would've miss my order. Overall, wouldn't come back bc of that experience but also the bagel was okay. Either way it's probably worth a try if you're in this market place anyways.

Parking here totally sucks, so take the bus like a hippie. I must admit the bagel selection is pretty good here. There are both sweet and savoury varieties.

I also had their blueberry bagel with pineapple filling. This one was like eating a cake. Yum! Staff (2 Korean ladies) are very friendly.

Well, let me say first of all, that I would probably never come back, but certainly not without a coupon! Their sandwiches are ridiculously over-priced. They must slice their cheese with a razor blade, because you can practically see through it. I paid $7.11 for a ham & cheese bagel - and I found out they charge $.40 extra for a cheese bagel. They also do not let you use the coupon for salmon (lox) or the 'club' sandwiches. I asked for my bagel NOT toasted, but after eating my sandwich, I'm thinking I should've had it toasted because the bagel is not fresh. It's hard and way too chewy. I love bagels, and this is one of the worst I've had, especially considering that it's coming from a bagel shop. I can go to Subway for a FOOTLONG ham & cheese sandwich with all the fixings ($6.71) for less than what you pay for a little bagel sandwich. And Subway doesn't charge extra for their cheese bread.
