    Cream cheese options
    Katherine P.

    Open 24 hours so they always have fresh bagels with lots of variety including different cream, cheese cheeses. the downside is they only take cash or check. Who writes checks nowadays anyway. Staff is friendly and move pretty quickly to get you in and out of there. There's no seating area in here which was fine with me as I just wanted to buy a dozen bagels and cream cheese and take it home.

    Bought a pizza bagel for my kid and some other varieties. Got back to my kid to give him his pizza bagel, and it was cold... I wasn't watching - and the employee didn't warm it. Or even ask...pizza bagels can't really go in a regular toaster either. So, I guess I'll go home and put the top part on the grill. It's just...it's a $3.90 bagel. A bagel, topped with a slice of cheese and a dollop of sauce. Also bought burnt bagel chips - guess that's my fault too. Idk, just starting to feel like Western Bagel is grossly overrated and overpriced. Instead of feeding the locals "direct from factory" bagels at a reasonable price - selling them at store cost was their choice. And cash only. Western Bagel chose violence when they could've swooped in to be the local hero. Ah well. For those that are just as annoyed, Pop's Bagels is legit. Think about it, for just a quarter more, you can get a decent bagel from a fancy place.

    Love their bagels, they are always fresh. The best part they are open 24 hour a day. The employees are always very friendly and helpful.

    The Mothership of all Western Bagel locations in LA, because this is where all the Western Bagel bagels are born. This is the SPOT and the bagels come hot right off the press, being freshest and most delicious, right to your plate 24 hours a day. The shop never closes and has good and fast customer service and a pleasant to-go style ambiance. My ultimate go-to is the everything with jalapeño bagel, extra toasted, with lox cream cheese and a tomato and served open-faced. It's phenomenal and Godly. As you take a bite, you submerge into a whole new world of taste -- cheesy-crispy initially and pillowy tenderness full of cheese, jalapeño and perfectly cooked dough flavor, as you start to chew. One awesome bagel and hits the spot at any time around the clock.

    TLDR: A quick in-and-out with tasty bagels and a morning cup of joe. Parking is easy, but make sure to bring cash, as they are CASH ONLY! - - - - - - Western Bagel is a nice bite on the edge of town, large streets but not as busy around 11am. I walked in for a quick bite with the everything bagel with lox spread and an iced coffee. They unfortunately don't sell lattes here. :( Additionally, there is no eating area, just a big room with bagel displays, a few snacks, a fridge with spread, and a small self service area. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Decades of experience may have helped them perfect their bagels because sheesh they were good. My only disappointment was that the generous amount of lox spread made it difficult to enjoy the bagel. There was probably enough spread there for three bagels! Although there wasn't iced coffee either, I appreciated that the staff improvised and gave me a cup of hot coffee with a cup of ice. The coffee was as expected, and it really hit the spot! A cup of joe to jog the noggin', bold and lightly bitter. Make sure to bring cash though, as they are cash only!

    If You Come Late At Night You Might Be Able To Catch The Bagels Straight Out Of The Oven (That's When They're The Best) This Is My Favorite Bagel Spot. Service Could Be Better, It Just Either Seems Like There Are New Faces That Don't Know What They're Doing Or Old Faces That Don't Want To Be There. Not Very Welcoming. Plenty Of Parking When They're Not To Busy And The Inside Is Pretty Spacious.

    You looking for a good bagel? You gotta come to Western Bagel!
    Morgan K.

    If you're looking for a "good old neighborhood" bagel store that's been around for decades with a little "good old neighborhood" attitude to fully handle all your desired bagel and cream cheese needs, then you gotta come to Western Bagel! I heard about this place from my neighbors...and I mean ALL of my neighbors from my block. ALL my neighbors who seem to ALL be LA Locals, who apparently have ALL tried their bagels...ALL have said the same thing to me: "You're from NYC?, well you gotta go to Western Bagel and try their bagels".... And boy, am I glad I did... from the moment I pulled into the parking lot, I was greeted with parked cars and bagel deficient customers waiting in line to get their bagel fix! I felt right at home as if I was back in NYC....but without the stereotypical New York City impatience and personal space invasion. That's already a win for me! Now, this place brags of old bagel dough history and their staff working feverishly to replenish the bagels already sold is a sight to see! The bagel cages are constantly being emptied and filled! This place is a factory. I'm not kidding, this location actually makes all the bagel dough that they distribute to their other multiple locations! I felt like a kid in a bagel shop....literally!! They got all the flavors you can need or want...and not one bagel cage was empty....because they are open 24/7 and need to be ready for anything at a moment's notice! How awesome is this?! That's crazy! I couldn't choose on which bagel flavor to get so I got one of each....yeah, I'm crazy...one of each...you gotta try them all right? My favorite? The Everything Bagel! I was reminded before I got there to bring some bagels back for the neighborhood! It's the least I can do since they told me about Western Bagel! Wha?, you got a problem with dat!?" See you here!

    When is the best time to get the straight out of the oven hot bagels?

    I was at one of the locations a couple of weeks ago, they were short on the variety that I wanted and said it will be coming out in 10 minutes if I wanted to wait. Therefore you never know when a new hot batch will be coming out

    Good sandwich spot in the valley, especially if you love meatball subs like I do!…read more I found out about Cavaretta's recently and decided to give it a try as I love meatball subs. I placed the order Saturday morning for 5 sandwiches via Doordash and they were delivered very quickly. On the Doordash app, you can only choose large size for most of the sandwiches. Only the Italian had the small option. That sucks as I was planning to order mostly small sandwiches, but this forced me to order mostly large sizes. All of the large sandwiches were $15.95, and the small Italian was $12.50. I also ordered two small cannolis for $2.95 each. The meatball sub was still hot when it arrived, and I was seriously impressed by the ginormous size of the meatballs. The bread was barely visible next to the meatballs! See my picture for reference. Most of my friends liked their sandwiches, but the person who got the hot pastrami commented that the pastrami was super bland. I tried a bite and I have to agree. Wouldn't recommend getting this. We each tried a bite of the cannoli afterwards. It was good as well, but I think I'm not a huge fan of cannolis in general. Would probably pass on them next time and stick to the meatball sub.

We grabbed two breakfast sandwiches, one with bacon and one without, and both were standout in their own way. The first thing you notice? These sandwiches come out piping hot, wrapped tight and ready to go. Crack them open and you're hit with perfectly cooked eggs and an almost ridiculous amount of gooey, melted cheese. Not skimpy, not balanced, loaded in the best possible way. The Kaiser roll deserves its own shoutout: lightly toasted with just enough crunch on the outside while staying soft and pillowy inside. It holds everything together without getting soggy, even with all that cheese. * The meat version had crispy, flavorful bacon layered just right, salty, smoky, and not overdone. * The meatless one didn't feel like a compromise at all, still rich, filling, and honestly just as indulgent thanks to the cheese and eggs. No frills, no gimmicks, just classic deli breakfast sandwiches executed really well. Bottom line: If you want a hot, cheesy, perfectly toasted breakfast sandwich that actually hits the spot, Paulie's is a win. I can't wait to go back for lunch!

It's a small Italian deli that hits the way you want it to. To the right as soon as you walk in, there's seats and a table where you can wait for your to go order or to eat there. The entire shop was clean, neat and orderly. It's sensory overload walking in. There's a lot going on. The menu is massive. I knew what I wanted after doing some homework before arriving so I was ready. The lady that took my order couldn't have been more of a pleasure to deal with. I placed my order, paid, tipped and sat down. A few minutes later, I had what is probably the best sandwich I've had this year. I should have sat in the parking lot and enjoyed it but I wanted the elbow room because I knew this was a monster. After I got home and unwrapped this behemoth, I instantly knew it was worth the drive. The Dillinger (which is what I ordered) has Pastrami, Meatballs, Italian Sausage, Pepperoni, Mozz Cheese, Garlic Butter and Marinara Sauce. If there's a better (big back) sandwich, I'll wait for your reply. This was soooooo gooood. In every bite you could taste each ingredient separately and it was an explosion of flavors. I ordered a small cup of their marinara sauce to dip/drizzle on each bite.....couldn't have been a better decision. Worth it. The 3 ladies that were working the front counter (around noon on 4/23) were the best. Just an all around great experience and fantastic food. I'll be back soon FOR SURE!!!!
