What to Eat at Bagels and More How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Bagels and More, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.
Foods and drinks mentioned in reviews of Bagels and More, ranked by positive reviews minus negative reviews. Zero-score items have no net positive feedback; their labels distinguish neutral-only from mixed feedback.

“The bagels were cold and hard and tasted ‘store bought’. The least they could have done was toast it, and if they did, well they were cold by the time it reached our table. The bagels were loaded that way and ingredients tasted fresh - we had the salmon cream cheese and the BBQ beef bagel.”

Tips for a Better Visit
Allow Time. Visit with extra time for breakfast; one order took 50 minutes, and drinks took about 25 minutes.
Check Delivery. For delivery, confirm the timing before ordering and keep the restaurant contact details handy; one number was reported invalid.
Ask Toasting. If ordering bagels in person, ask whether they will be toasted and check they arrive hot.
Check Vegan Options. Do not assume there is a vegan menu option; ask what can be prepared before ordering.
Use Parking. Drivers can look for the free parking mentioned by a visitor, with an outside area nearby.
Expect Variability. Food and service reviews vary sharply, so check current availability and menu details when you arrive.

The Bottom Line
Bagels and More is a neighbourhood restaurant in The Sustainable City where breakfast is the main draw. You can order bagels with different fillings, all-day breakfast, salads and coffee, while the wider menu includes dishes such as taco salad and hotdogs. Its outdoor area and nearby kids’ space also make it useful for family meals or a casual gathering.
The strongest reviews mention fresh bagels, generous salads, good coffee and a relaxing, clean setting. Families have used it for a small children’s birthday celebration, and one review specifically says the milkshake was a hit with the kids. Keto meals are available, and the Iftar menu has been praised as delicious and reasonably priced.
Service is the main reason to plan carefully. Diners have reported waits of 40 to 50 minutes for breakfast, and delivery problems include late, incorrect or cold orders. Food quality can vary too: some customers found their bagels fresh, while others received cold, hard bagels that tasted store-bought.
Iced matcha and Spanish lattes were also described as watery. If you are ordering delivery, confirm the timing; for a dine-in visit, allow extra time and ask about current menu availability.
