Bagel Cafe
373 Hanover St, Bedford, NH
Crema's Take
“This beloved Bedford institution has earned its loyal following over years of consistently excellent bagels and thoughtful sandwich construction, with staff who treat every customer like a regular. The spacious, welcoming environment works equally well for a quick coffee grab or a leisurely breakfast meeting, and their cold brew and espresso drinks pair beautifully with their fresh, high-quality bagel creations. You'll pay a bit more than average, but regulars swear the care taken in every detail—from ingredient selection to the toasted bagel itself—makes it worth every penny.”

Well, this was totally disappointing. Reviews indicated this place was very good. I ordered a bagel well done, with butter and cream cheese. Bagel was barely cooked, served cold with way too much cream cheese and globs of fake butter that I had to remove. $7.60 for a single bagel. Had I not driven off in the storm, I would have returned it.
Great service. The staff was friendly and helpful. The place was clean and inviting. The bagels are on display, showing you a good variety of flavors. I had an onion bagel toasted with plain cream cheese. It was delish! The pricing matched the product. I'll definitely be going back.
So amazing we got takeout for breakfast here. I got the bacon Egg and American cheese on a sesame eagle and a caramel iced latte. The coffee was strong and really good! The bagels and ingredients were fresh and since we did takeout everything was packaged up great. No issues there at all. Perfect little breakfast place for a quick breakfast sandwich and coffee. Nice to have a Bagel Cafe closer to us!
Bagel Cafe makes top notch sandwiches. Everything is fresh and high quality. It’s pricey, but it’s worth the price for fresh made bagels and top notch ingredients. The sandwich construction shows that they care… nothing falling apart or sloppy here. I highly recommend the chipotle turkey. It’s one of my favorite sandwiches I’ve had anywhere. I get it on the everything bagel, which is also phenomenal. Their online ordering system is user friendly, seamless and one of the best I’ve experienced. Everything I’ve ordered has always been ready by the time I’ve gotten there (10 minute drive). Give them a try! Also, French toast bagels are great for breakfast sandwich. They also do pastrami egg and cheese which I haven’t seen elsewhere. If you like pastrami, you’ll like this sandwich.
Ive been going here for the last 14 years and every bagel I have ever had has been delicious, yummy, gorgeous and perfect!!! I have never had one bad experience and the service is always friendly and quick! UPDATE The prices are great considering the prices of everything are rising. If ingredients costs more obviously prices rise, some of these reviews are crazy. Just got another bagel so I’m updating my review, still gorgeous still perfect, still fantastic service. xx
