5th Ave Bagelry & Espresso
4214 Woodruff Ave, Lakewood, CA
Crema's Take
“This Lakewood spot pairs freshly toasted bagels with surprisingly excellent specialty drinks, including a Vietnamese iced coffee that's earned real praise from regulars. The team here genuinely shines—they're patient and generous with portions, and they'll replace your coffee with a smile if you have an accident, creating the kind of warm, unhurried atmosphere where first-timers feel immediately welcome. Whether you're grabbing breakfast on the go or settling in for a slow morning, the combination of quality food, fair prices, and genuine hospitality makes this feel less like a bagel shop with espresso and more like a neighborhood gathering spot.”
What to expect
Cold brew standout. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Bagel with cream cheese was great. Toasted to perfection and a generous amount of cream cheese. Coffee is ok also.
I got the heavenly veggie and it was one of the most delicious bagel sandwiches I've ever eaten. I spilled my coffee in the store and they gave me a free one to replace it, which was so kind. However, I did order two sandwiches and one of them was wrong. I didn't notice until I…
The bagels were delicious and fresh! The Vietnamese iced coffee was also amazing! Highly recommended.
