My go to place for a quick breakfast. The less expensive place too. Consistently serving great bagels and coffee. Before the pandemic, I used to come here every morning I had classes at SJSU. I recently started working nearby, so I have once again started getting my coffee and bagels here.

I love it there because when I first got here in California that was the first place they have really good heart and soul

Awesome little place for bagels in San Jose. Not too expensive and it tastes good, service is fast. Close to two public parks so you can take your food and eat it in the park if you want. They also have a wide variety of beverages.

They used to open around 430😕Too bad the hours are later but bagels are really good and very nice owners.

OMGosh! Soooo delicious! Stopped in after a scooter ride around town viewing artwork. I ordered a Jalapeño Bagel sandwich and the Honeydew drink. Amazing. SOI many drinks to choose from and you can select from many different bagels for your sandwich too. Highly recommend.

Consistent quality & adhere to requests! This shop is seemingly family run and theyre all very kind and customer-forward. Ive been here at least 5 times and will continue returning!

Love this place!! Fresh delicious bagels, great customer service and they make the food super quick!!

One of my favorite bagel shops in San Jose, I come here almost every weekend. Staff is always friendly, sandwiches are the best and the coffee if great!!

City bagels is a fixture downtown. Over the past 40 plus years they have changed hands but the quality hasnt changed. Aside from bagels and some donuts they have a great menu.

Wanted to like this place but they use liquid egg that sits outside in a pitcher the whole day, didnt taste too great

Nice bagel shop.Bagels and bagel sandwiches.Limited seating.

Great staff l! Super well prices and delicious sandwiches!

Good food...but staff can try be more friendly with customers

Needed a bagel spot one morning, ended up here where i LOVE their fruit smoothies and the bagels get no better

Jalapeno bagel with Jalapeno cream cheese is a must try!

Worst bagel I’ve had hands down

Hard to miss on Santa Clara st but this place has it all. We order from our office often and it is always a treat. Prepare for longer waits in the morning.

Their bagels and bagel sandwiches are great. I love the variety of cream cheese.

Hot and fresh bagels, for breakfast and lunch. Plus a variety of breakfast and lunch sandwiches available.

BEST EVER...my ONLY bagel store

The coffee wasnt great, and the bagels were ok. The boba was awful. Id say try elsewhere first.

Best Bagels around!! They are my absolute favorite! Hands down worth every penny. The people making these put effort and love into them I posted videos. I can’t say anything more but that I love this place. Never fails to be super good.

I frequent different bagel shops due to my job. City Bagels is where i noticed best tasting BLT, but not best latte.

Wow! Wow!Wow!The owners and staff are kind and quick. The bagels are real bagels (I love their pesto and their salted rock bagels with any filling) are freshest I have found and their cream cheese the best, hands down. I highly recommend!

Reasonably priced friendly store selling tasty bagels. Enjoyed a sausage, egg, and cheese bagel for breakfast with cup of tea. Two young women that were running the store were polite and friendly.

I love the women who work here. My boyfriend and I call them our bagel aunties. Weve been in here at least once a week for months. Where else can you get great food at a good price from people who know your name! My go to order sausage egg and cheese on salt.

Had a simple sesame seed bagel toasted with plain cream cheese. The bagel was soft and spongy cream cheese was delicious. I enjoyed it so much that I ordered another bagel, this time poppy seed with plain cream cheese, and that was delicious too. Some bagel shops have the toppings on one side of the bagel only, City Bagels had coated the top and bottom of my bagel with poppy seeds, just like I like it 👍

I like the place you can come and enjoy coffee and a donut and watch the news

Ive made it a habit to come here before work. This is where I get my breakfast, so yummy, and pricing wise its so wallet-friendly! I used to walk to bucks two blocks from here, but this place beats the chain store in terms of both time and money. Also the people who work here are super nice and may just make your morning. They prepare food fast, so if youre on the go, I definitely recommend it.

Randomly walked in here and got roast beef bagel sandwich and smoothie. Food was pretty good. Didnt know they make all kind of bobba teas.

Had a breakfast croissant made with liquid egg that had been out of refrigeration on the side on a very hot day.Was not very well a number of hours later (I’ll spare the details).Only thing I ate all day, so was definitely that.Service and product seemed ok, but you can’t give a customer the Tom Tits I’m afraid 🙁

Their bagel with lox is decent, I have to say that. Since thats all Ive tried, thats all I *can* say.Like too many San Jose restaurants, its staffed by someone for whom English is an exotic language, but thats what menus are for! Just point and grunt. Youll talk at each other in your respective languages, eat your bagel, and get the hell out, but with a smile because that was a pretty decent bagel.

Really good bagels.... really ! However 2 bagels and 2 drinks was 20 bucks.bagel one was a veggie and super good, the other was a simple lox, drinks were a soda and a coffee with espresso.So if 20$ for that is good for you.. great!

I really like this spot for a quick, tasty bagel sandwich. I recommend the chicken salad on a jalapeno cheese bagel. MMM-mmm. Yummy! lots of other stuff too! The service is generally very quick, the price is reasonable and the portion size is good for a bagel sandwich. Plenty of food for a nice lunch.

Well, they microwave the egg and sandwich. I’m from NY. I guess I expect a higher quality breakfast sandwich, like you know, on a grill. If I wanted a microwaved sandwich I could do that at home.

Great breakfast burritos, very friendly service

Great bagels

Pick up a morning snack. From donuts to bagels to breakfast sandwiches and fresh coffee. Good place to go for a quick fix or a casual meal.

Great croissant breakfast sandwich and all manner or bagel sandwiches. I like to eat here and convince myself Im being healthy.

Love this place. They always greet you with a “good morning,” when you come in. I literally walk in and out. Very fast and great customer service.

Went in here for lunch today. great bagel sandwich deals. $5.99 for a sandwich, chips and a soda can. I had the tuna salad sandwich which was pretty good. they put sprouts in the sandwich, which i like. there is a good amount of seating inside the place although the store front is small. they take cash only, but there is an ATM machine inside. fast service.

I had the worst pastrami sandwich at City Bagel ever. Yuck!!! The pastrami was really thickly sliced. It was really tough and when I bit into my sandwich everything squeezed out of the bottom. I say DONT EAT THERE!! It was gross. 🤮🤮🤮 Oh, when I told them I didnt like it, they offered to throw it away for me. Nice, huh?

Awh I love this City Bagel. They are so nice and sweet here and super thoughtful, accommodating and fast. It was hard to find at first so I called and although I could tell they were busy they still gave me great directions. I drive Lyft and this is the perfect place for a quick breakfast and some great service!

We love getting bagels and donuts for work here. They have good Boba too

The service is constantly quick, fantastic atmosphere, helpful staff members. Will visit again when I am in the area.

WOW!!!! We happened upon this place while watching our boys at the Turkey Trot. Oh goodness gracious...there are no words to express the delectable deliciousness of the bagels. I had the whole wheat with honey butter. My husband had the jalapeño cheese with cream cheese. Absolutely fantastic! They also had yummy Thai tea with boba! Hoping to make it a regular stop on future trips to San Jose!

I come here at least once a week. Staff is wonderful, bagels are great, prices are low. I hope they’re here forever!

These women are very rude and need to relax when handling customers when asked a question. I asked them do they have extra dressing and they got all bent because of asking. Very unprofessional when asked questions. Need to be courteous to their regular customers. I have supported them for over a year. This is the second time the little lady was rude and very moody. She is usually nicer... but today Oh my gosh very rude!

Best Bagels fast and easy the veggiel sandwich is my favorite I always get extra sprouts.. and I love their jalapeno Bagels...

I went there for the first time yesterday and the second time today. The two stars are because the quality of the food was good. Unfortunately, both times it wasnt what I ordered (plain bagel with pb&j- pretty simple). First time I got cream cheese, second time peanut butter and no jam. Especially frustrating this morning, as I was the only one there and the two ladies behind the counter definitely both heard me and one actually repeated my order back to me and they had no one to confuse my order with :PIf I ever am really trying to get a bagel while Im downtown I might go back, but Im definitely unwrapping and checking it before I leave.

Quiet cafe with great service. Nothing fancy, but the place is clean and the people friendly. I usually get the lox and bagel and a few donuts. Good stuff. Ive been a customer for at least 10 years and will continue.

The service this very good .

This place has the freshest bagels and best cream cheese I have ever tasted. Breakfast sandwiches are delicious too!

Workers are rude. Breakfast sandwich was mediocre. The morning crew definitely needs some CS training.... The bagel was soft n fluffy though

You cant beat the price of these delicious bagels and sandwiches. Perfect on-the-go food. Looks like a hole-in-the-wall place, but that just means its local. The staff remember you after a while and make you feel welcomed--super friendly!

Amazing bagel sandwiches and the coffee is just perfect. What a pleasant surprised. will come back here regularly.

The best of the best!A small place with fresh baked bagels, fresh squeezed orange juice and great and fast customer service!Open till around 3pm.

Really excellent Bagel sandwich with mushroom and Chive. Open quite early. Coffee is also very good.

Great sandwiches, great service, and proud to do business with the good people who care for their local community people. Outstanding experience today. #humbled

Needed a bite to eat before heading to the airport. Service was fast and friendly the food was good.

Their jalapeño cheddar cheese bagel with chive cream cheese is amazing

Excellent fresh bagels. Very kind people. Good Wi-Fi.

Helpful staff serving good food at a quiet environment. Absolutely Pleasant!

Great bacon, egg, and cheese bagels. Amazing service. Will be coming back soon.

Cheap, decent bagels, decent shmear, but nothing too exciting about this place. Feels a bit like a bodega.Which is fine, its just not someplace to hang out. Very transactional.

Its the microwaved eggs for me!😖

Fast, friendly service! I had a breakfast sandwich and a doughnut. Good food at a good price!

Fresh Bagels, wide variety. Friendly staff.

Got there near seven, it wasnt very crowded.

Great breakfast, coffee and thier Taro Boba tea is some of the best Ive had....

In town for a friends wedding, passed by this place and got a turkey BLT. Delicious bagel and great, friendly service. Feels like a nice family business

Friendly, fast service and good selections.

Fresh.

Bagel is pretty good!But BOBA IS THE WORST BOBA IVE EVER HAD!!

Delicious breakfast and lunch sandwiches, bagels, fruit cups, doughnuts, etc. All for a good price. There is indoor seating.

This is the BEST place to stop for yummy breakfasts. Coffee is fresh and good too.

Good breakfast sandwich. Donuts as well.

A couple of really cool gals food is great I enjoy going to every morning

This place is my favorite for donuts and bagels but today the owner is gone and i dont know who the heck these other two ladies are but they are so rude and messy..makes me not want to ever come back..but its not their shop so its ok..i hope the owner comes back soon bc these ladies are costing them business..

San Jose gem, a HUGE variety of bagels, sandwich options, smoothies and caffeinated beverages. Proces are VERY reasonable, give it a try!

First time here, begal is as I expected. Not much surprised, but its ok to eat.

Excelent service both gals were super friendly. Will go again.
