Delicious bagels here. I know bagels are on trend right now but this place has been offering excellent bagels for years and their cream cheese is awesome too. I go for their egg bagels - so I have to get there early as they always sell out. Love this place!
I lived in N.Y. for 45 years and I know my bagels. Luckily, House of Bagels and particularly Lillie REALLY knows bagels too.This place has THE best bagels in the Bay Area and theyre also very kind people.
I was driving by on the way to Redwood park and stopped on an impulse. I don’t usually have high hopes for bagels in California. But these turned out to be some of the best bagels I’ve had in the Bay Area (my tastes were shaped by NYC bagels). I will stop here whenever I’m in the neighborhood!
Solid bagels, great service
Ok bagels. You could probably do better. The shmears are quality
Bagels are awesome. I wish they had better coffee tho. Then they would be my go to spot every morning.
Every time we visit House of Bagels we are greeted by Lily. She always knows what we want and before you know it our order is ready. No one is as fast and kind as Lily. That’s mostly why we go there at least twice a week. Thank you Lily. You make such a difference.Rita and Tim
These are the best bagels around. And the people that work here are lovely. They know you and your order and make it with care. These are the closet to actual New York delicious bagels that you can get in Oakland.
Great bagels for the West coast. Theyre actually boiled like real N.Y. bagels. Way better than Noahs, which are more like hamburger buns with a hole punched in the middle! Spoken by an ex New Yorker!
Ordered two egg, cheese, and bacon bagels. Both were extremely dry and had no flavor. Would not go back again.
Best bagles in the East Bay
Changed my review because these are really good bagels but pretty expensive. $23 for 12 bagels and a medium and small container of shmear. Bought 12 bagels but wasnt given the option for a bakers dozen. Asked about the deal mentioned in other reviews about getting free shmear when buying 12 but was told that wasnt true. Not sure why.
There is a nice variety of fresh, tasty bagels here including spinach, The Works, onion, pumpernickel, whole wheat, sesame seed, etc. If you buy a dozen, not only do they give you 13, but you get two containers of spread, which is called schmear. lts a good deal!
Service is usually good but slow. Good food and a lot of options.
Great bagels, especially love the breakfast sandwiches, such a great way to start the day.
Friendly, down to earth, nothing like a morning lox bagel and coffee to beat the grump.
Great bagel shop!
Best bagels, best service !!!
Great bagels.
