Western Bagel - Salmon bagel - Bagels Near Me - Northridge, California

Ordered the stacked egg ala bagel and it tasted decently well. Perfect breakfast! It came with cheese, hash browns, and I opted for the sausage. Also ate it as soon as I got it and it was piping hot with the cheese perfectly melted. The store itself can use a bit of an upgrade though since everything looked dated (though I know this store has been here for a while now). Staff were also friendly and nice. read more

I enjoyed my lox sandwich but the tomato on my sandwich was so pale in color, I wish it was a little more fresh and juicy. Loved the flavor of the onion bagel! I think their bagels here are great if you are in need of a bagel and cream cheese fix, friendly and fast service. They have outside seating which is nice and plenty of parking. Inside seating is available as well but it's a little tight inside. Love their hazelnut coffee here! They always have all the bagel flavors available which is nice. Sometimes on a weekend other places run out. If you get bagels to go, they have pre packaged cream cheese ready to grab and go. Great selection of cookies and baked goods. Definitely a great place to get a nice spread for a special occasion or even for work. read more

The employees at this Western Bagel are great. They're so efficient and kind. I also love the whipped cream cheese and Bagel Brad deals. The bagels are good. I also love their coffee. The sandwiches are overpriced. read more

It's always a hit or miss with the customer service and quality of their food. The consistency is not there

I've had issues with online orders at this location before, ranging from missing/inaccurate food, to receiving my order 20 minutes after my pickup time, but nothing like this particular visit. On 9/13 (Saturday), I placed a to-go order on their website, with their preferred payment processor, Olo. When I got home, I found completely raw, gooey egg oozing out of both breakfast sandwiches ordered. When I called the store to request a refund, I was told that since I'd used a "third party service," I would need to submit the request via the website, contradicting the email confirmation saying "For order issues, please contact WESTERN BAGEL NORTHRIDGE at (818) 727-9404." I wasn't even offered an apology during the call. Being dissatisfied with this answer, I drove back on my lunch break and was offered store credit or for the food to be remade. Not wanting either of those options, I asked for the manager to call the store owner also refused the refund-- which is interesting, since they've been able to give me a cash refund for missing food previously. It is now 9/18 (Thursday) and I have yet to be contacted regarding my refund request. For the nearly $20 price point, you would expect better service or at the very least, cooked food. Also, I've witnessed some dodgy food handling practices at this location before, such as employees running the register while also making food without changing their gloves. You don't have to look too closely to see the store hasn't had a deep clean in a long, long time; if the customer facing area looks this grimy, I can only imagine what horrors linger in the backroom. It's a food borne illness outbreak waiting to happen. read more

Western Bagel - Half used Veggie Cream Cheese - Bagels Near Me - Northridge, California

This is our go-to spot on Sunday mornings with our grandbaby. We usually order the ham and cheese and the strawberry bagel, paired with a hot cup of coffee. The service is always quick, and the vibe is nice and chill, even with the steady foot traffic. Outdoor seating is first come, first served, but it's worth grabbing a table when you can! read more

Save your time and money and go to the Corner Bakery in the same parking lot. I really want to support small biz, and my new company is down the street but this place sucks! I came in for a single bagel with cream cheese and it took them 15minutes. The employees were scrambling so much in the back, seems like they weren't quite ready? But the shop was very much open. It's very unfortunate, but there's better options around. read more

I normally get bagels and coffee when I have meetings, rarely do I get them just for myself. But when I do, I get them from this location. I typically call in the day before or use the app to place my order In advance. My orders are always ready on time, staff seems friendly enough, considering my early mornings pickup. Usually I get a couple dozen bagels mixed with cream cheese and a couple coffee totes to go. Unfortunately I did not get pics of my actual order, just the receipt and few left over bagels. They have so many different kinds of bagels, everything, jalapeño, cheese topped, blueberry, cinnamon, plain, poppy seed, sesame seed, etc. so many options. You can also get breakfast and lunch sandwiches as well as hash browns. The coffee I usually get in the totes is really good, not sure what it is, but I like the flavor, caffeinated and not overly strong, but has great coffee flavor. The store has a large front counter, with a window case full of bagels, seating area inside and outside. They keep a decent flow going with one door to enter only and one door for exit only. If looking for a morning or early afternoon bite or if you need to get a big order for a group, meeting, etc. this is a great place to get it. Sorry for not having more pics. Enjoy! read more

Western Bagel - Bagels Near Me - Northridge, California

Ordered a bagel sandwich via uber eats. It was a fine enough sandwich, i think they overtoasted it a little. I got a garlic bagel so the burnt garlic added a bitter flavor. I know its not their decision, and I'm sure if you're ordering in person it would be different, but the uber eats and online options do not allow you to add cream cheese to most bagel sandwiches (I think the lox sandwich comes with cream cheese). I ordered the stacked egg ala bagel with double egg ($3.00 on the app...looks like maybe $2.60 extra online) and a tomato as additions I couldn't say it was double egg, doesn't look that different than their website picture, and there was just a single slice of tomato. I believe that slice of tomato is $1 on the app and $0.85 on their website.....I don't know in what reality a slice of tomato is worth $1 or even $0.85. I was expecting at least 2-3 slices at $1. Just pure opinion, tomato, lettuce, should be a selectable free option...in any case their additional toppings and the price for them is out of hand. Edit: 2025.11.07 I want to say that I appreciate the business owner offering a response. I recongize that there is the build a bagel option but had the stipulations of the limitations on the website, you can't add "double egg" or other meat options beyond lox. I am not going to reach out to customer service regarding their website structure nor pricing. Final note: I enjoy Western Bagel's bagels, they're good. To their credit, I'd say the bagels are quality and so is their cream cheese. I don't know if I can justify another sandwich at this price point but it was something to try. read more

Stopped in to grab a late snack instead of lunch. Had to get my everything bagel with cheese, but now they're serving these lovely blends of chocolate, peanut butter and real banana. Super friendly staff was patient while my brain got stuck on stupid.

The staff was great The bagels were fine The entire experience was ruined by the rude district manager. Speaking to a senior citizen like that over a 12 pound dog that would've been gone by the time the conversation was over. We were on our way OUT. It IS in fact a "service dog" that I paid 105 dollars to the state. All they needed to ask was for proof. I said it was a service dog and she said for what? What the f business is it of yours. Next time ask for proof if a 12 pound dog that's coming in for a to go order that took 3 minutes. Don't speak down to people. It may be worthy to note that the FIRST THING I SAID TO THE EMPLOYEE when I walked in was "he is a service dog" and she said thank you for letting me know. All I remembered was the red lipstick while eating the bagels I now didn't enjoy. 53 dollars down the drain. Who trains these people?! read more

I had a great time coming to this Western Bagel location this morning. I was going to be in the area to pick up my order from Portos and I wanted a bagel first. I found parking easily in the morning because the rush hasn't arrived yet. When I walked inside the store, they didn't have a lot of people in line so I was able to put in my order. I got 2 blueberry bagel, toasted and asked for cream cheese on the side. My wife wanted her cheddar jalapenos bagel so I ordered that for her. I saw on their website that they have croissant here so I ordered that as well but after the person started toasting my bagel, he asked another employee and she said they don't have croissant anymore. I ate my bagel when we got home and I thought it was pretty good. My wife liked her cheddar jalapenos bagel as well. read more

First of all the e been going there for over 10 years seen workers come and go always friendly and good but now they have a young bunch that can't even say good morning the little dark girl that wears sweats to work is unprofessional and doesn't know the difference between extra cream cheese and extra toast I'm a truck driver and don't get to open my bagel till I'm long gone and can't do anything about it so stay clear of that chubby one she needs to understand the paying for what I ask for and if I ask for for some room in my cup for creamer it doesn't mean half a cup and making faces at my wife for asking to finish filling cup after the creamer is not bad either.. thanks for the worst bagel in 10 years read more

Great Bagel Shop! There's one in Chatsworth but the one in Northridge has a lot more parking! It can get a little busy here but it's because they have great bagels and bagels sandwiches! My absolute favorite thing to get here is the Everything Jalapeño Cheese Bagel with the Veggie Cream Cheese! SO GOOD! My wife got the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Sandwich which she said was very good too! It gets busy but the service is good! The place feels old sometimes but this location has been around since I was a teenager! I'm glad they're still around! read more

Western Bagel - Everything bagel open with tomato onion and avocado - Bagels Near Me - Northridge, California

Tried this place out for the first time. I ordered a breakfast sandwich. My everything bagel was burnt from the top, which you can taste the burnt seeds. The hash brown was not great; McDonald's hash brown is better. I ordered a chocolate danish and it was awful. Staff is not the friendliest. Since it was my first time, I didn't know where to go for pick up orders. I looked up (usually they are hanging somewhere) to see if there was a pick up sign, but there wasn't. I waited in line and one of the workers asked "who's next?" I said I was since I was in line but didn't acknowledge that I was next. She didn't give me eye contact. I had to tell he again that I was next and that I was picking up an order. She pointed where to get the order and said "pick up orders are over there" in a rude tone. The girl that prepared the order and handed it to me was nice. The place itself looks outdated. Einstein Bagels is WAY better in food and customer service! read more

Great experience here. The server behind the counter took down my 4 bagel orders without writing it down and again I was holding my breathe to see if it was going to be wrong and was proven once again that there are people out there than have amazing memories (I don't happen to be one of them). The service was friendly, efficient and more than adequate. The Lox Bagel I had was delicious! The smoked salmon was fresh, buttery and melted in my mouth & combined perfectly with the red (it's really purple LOL) onions, tomato, lettuce and cream cheese on an Everything Bagel to give me a tasty bite every time. The sausage, cheese and egg on garlic bagels as well as the Ham, cheese, egg on cheese bagel (can you tell my eater loves cheese?) is also recommended. We also each had hashbrowns that were crispy yet not oily. Pretty good. You can tell this establishment is popular as there were a steady stream of customers either taking their orders to-go or dining in--and they all seemed like repeat/regular clientele. There are small tables on the inside and outside. All of us were happy with what we ate and we'd definitely return (and I'd probably order the same exact thing!) Shared parking and there's plenty of it. read more

In the general scheme of things, I am not a fan of bagels. Most bagels I have had are large, too dense in consistency, chewy, have varying degrees of dryness and are too filling when it is all over. Maybe, it is because I have not been to Western Bagel for a very long time. I came here for breakfast and to build my own everything jalapeño bagel. My recipe: toast the bagel, apply jalapeño cream cheese, add egg (fresh cracked egg, mixed up and microwaved), bacon, red onion, tomato, assemble the sandwich and cut in half. The outside of the fresh bagel had nice toasted jalapeño and cheese taste. The tomato and onion, gave it a juicy bite. The cream cheese and bacon harmonized well with the rest of the ingredients to enhance the mouth feel and flavor. The bagel itself, was soft and airy on the inside and became the ideal carrier for its ingredients. Western Bagel also has other sandwiches, paninis and coffee. Parking is not a problem. Service was friendly, informative and exceptional. read more

You're not going to get a better bagel in the San Fernando Valley than Western Bagels. Most locals know that so if you're coming in the morning, anticipate a long line. This location also doesn't have a lot of seating (both inside and out) so if you're planning on enjoying your meal here, you could run into some issues. However, I feel like most people get their food to go. Could be a cause and effect situation, I don't know. I personally tend to either put in an order beforehand to skip the line. I also am usually coming to this location with large orders so it's just a time saver for everyone there, including the other customers in line. I highly recommend this route. If you do wait in line, keep in mind that there are 2 windows with different offerings of bagels. I usually go to a different location so when I come here, I often wrongfully assume what I see in 1 window is all they have. If you don't see the bagel you want, check the other counter or just ask one of the very helpful employees. Chances are you won't have to settle for your 2nd or 3rd choice. One final thing, parking at this location isn't the best. It's in a busy shopping center with small spots. Just be advised on that if you're going to be coming during peak shopping times. With all that said, you're going to have a wonderful bagel after coming to Western. And while made fresh every day from their bakery in Van Nuys, don't hesitate to buy a couple extra for the next few days. They keep quite well & a quick little toast will cover up any dryness. read more

Service is terrible. And they also messed up my order. Guy with the piercings is rude as hell. They don't even acknowledge you when you come in and you need to try and make eye contact with them and be like HEY just so they can look at you with a dead stare like you're such a nuisance they can't even bear to look at you honestly what the just go and work at a warehouse if dealing with customers is such a big deal! Won't come back to this location read more

I love myself a good bagel so I wanted to drop by and check out this location since it's been here forever and I've never been. They are a bit overpriced in my opinion but I know the prices of everything are going up. I got an everything bagel with cream cheese, lettuce, onion, and tomato and it was over $6. I didn't even have a meat, egg, cheese, or protein. I'm giving three stars mostly because of the poor service. They have multiple people working but I can see them all joking, laughing, and moving at a super slow pace. The person behind me was so annoyed that he ended up walking away and leaving. I might have if I wasn't next in line. Do not come here if you are in a rush because it does take awhile. read more

I go there early in the morning. I get my coffee and if I'm feeling like it, I'll get a bagel. The servers are always polite always helpful especially Jennifer.

WB is known for its wide range of bagels, often praised for their freshness and variety. My go to is their breakfast sandwich. Their service is decent, especially at 5 AM. What was most concerning was their bathroom looked like a bathroom you would find at a truckstop in the middle of nowhere how filthy it bathroom was -- makes me concerned about how tidy their kitchen is where food is being handled. :/ read more

Come here if you want to be hung up on calling in for a pick up order. Never coming back again. No shame at all. Just disappointing

the sandwiches are great for your standard bagel fix. prices are inflated but that comes with the nature of business in 2025. the staff are sooooo helpful and so kind and sweet and patient but then the management omg another story!!! idk what happened or who hurt her but i watched her literally ruin anyone's day that came up to her. A simple standard response about the ice coffee being one size shouldn't come with attitude and your back turned because she's an elderly lady. Who else is she suppose to ask for clarification?? How can this "manager" be paid more than the caring and kind younger workers she bosses around? Who trained and promoted her????? Her name is Silvia. It's Saturday 10/25 at 11:44am and she just has such a nasty attitude for a Saturday morning. Just a simple kind question about online order status and her exact response "it's not ready" but didn't bother to ask which order it was or maybe a greeting would've been nice? Food is expensive these days so there's no need to throw your bad attitude into peoples morning when we didn't pay for that part. She berated her coworkers for a receipt that is missing from the counter and accuses the worker of throwing it in the trash instead of kindly asking her if she's even seen it. Keep that bad customer service and aggressive tone to yourself and call out sick if you're having a bad day. Nobody needs this attitude on the side of our $20 bagel ok? the kicker.... the only smile i saw her give was when the parking lot was getting a scuffle and the horns were honking at each other and she genuinely found that entertaining and got her to smile. Weird. Update: got home with my 2x $20 traditional lox bagels and can't even remember to put the damn capers almost 20 minutes AFTER door dash said order would be ready. so annoying. read more

The bagels here are fantastic! Service was very friendly and efficient. The prices are very fair, stock up on a dozen or more as they freeze well. Toast to eat as needed, this is a easy and affordable meal for at home. They have a good variety of sweet and savory flavors available, I am partial to the savory ones. The quality is great, and they are always made fresh. Highly recommended! read more

Horrible staff. The female manager is very rude and not accommodating. Now i know why this place has 3 star reviews. I wont be coming to this location ever again. They made a mistake on my order and sent it to another location and she wouldnt help or even try to. She just said "nope " read more

As a long time customer of Western Bagel you have to get it together! I eat in three of your locations very regularly, they all seem to have changed and not for the good! I eat at Northridge most frequently and it has gotten quite bad, the worst of the three! They are open to 3 PM, but seem to always be in the shutting down mode from before 2 PM. Fewer bagels and even fewer varieties! The employees have gotten very unfriendly and customer service has gone down the drain! Yesterday I was there and there were three employees and a line of customers that was moving very slowly and two of the employees including the manager, Silvia, were busy preparing to shut down at 2 PM. Lots of disgruntled customers as the service was very, very slow! read more

This place is run by a bunch of kids who couldn't be paid to care. If you like waiting 30 minutes for a bagel sandwich then this place is for you. The service is terrible, if you ask for anything the workers act like you are ruining their day. Don't waste your time here. As I'm waiting for my order, three customers have complained to the kids working that their order is wrong or they are taking a long time. This place is a joke. read more

I really do love this place, the food and staff are great, but whoever is running it needs to be tending to it more carefully. Last Friday 6:00, teacher appreciation week and right before Mother's Day weekend, only 2 employees! The line was out the door, people were angry and in the time I waited for my order at least 4 people walked out the door because they could see there would be a delay. If short staffed others need to replace them , not right for those that showed up to have to deal with unruly, impatient customers. And if no staff can cover then managers need to step up. Emanuel did a great job making my breakfast and was so kind to apologize for the long wait. read more

Unfortunately a bad experience this morning. I arrive shortly before 10am and it's slightly busy but not too busy where there should be disorganization. I am standing at the front of the order line and have waited for a couple minutes seeking assistance. An employee goes to offer help..... to the young woman behind me. He starts taking his order, looking super attentive and pleasant and while this is happening I am raising my hand to get the attention and say I was ahead in line. It was the person at the register who got the attention of the employee that I was first in line. So he apologized to the woman behind me - but does not apologize to me for bypassing me in line - and begrudgingly goes to help me. I get helped without the same clear attention he gave the person behind me. When I get handed my food and he goes to ring me up, I get even more attitude as I pay, especially as he asks if I want a receipt. It's noisy in there but not too loud where I can't hear your tone of voice. I look at my food at home and it's cold. Given the speed I got my food, it was clear it was barely toasted and the cream cheese was sloppily applied. So ultimately what I got was poor service, a steaming pile of attitude along with two sloppily made bagels that were cold (see pictures). Not a good experience due to one male employee who seemed more intent on assisting a young female in workout gear than me (not an accusation, but more of an observation). read more

Thank goodness for Western Bagel. I was familiar with the one in Burbank, but my friend had suggested this place. He didn't know that I am already familiar with this chain. I was happy that there wasn't a line to get my bagel as this place is very popular in Burbank. I ordered my regular jalapeno cheddar bagel, toasted once with chive cream cheese. Apparently, I had the last of their chive cream cheese spread. The bagel was very satisfying, although I have to make sure next time to get it double toasted. I also love their bottled orange juice from the refrigerator as it tastes fresh squeezed. read more
