Bagels & Joe
1777 N 86th St, Lincoln, NE
Crema's Take
“This Lincoln favorite blends a genuine neighborhood warmth with reliable coffee and made-to-order food, where the staff genuinely seem to enjoy being there and remember regulars across multiple locations. Whether you're settling in with your laptop for an afternoon or bringing your grandparents for a leisurely breakfast, the cozy atmosphere and generous bagel sandwiches make it feel like a gathering place rather than just a café. The real magic here is in the details—personalized service from baristas who know your order and a space that welcomes everyone from solo studiers to multigenerational hangouts.”

Great experience, and a very cozy environment to eat in. All of the workers were pleasant to talk to and seemed to all be in very good moods. The food was amazing, and there were plenty of options for everyone! Highly recommend all to go!
I really love Bagels and Joe! I come here with friends to study, and this time we decided to hear to a new location. Our food and drinks were made exactly to order, which is always a lovely trait of any restaurant or Cafe. The staff were kind, but seemed impatient when we were trying to order and pay with gift cards. The atmosphere was not bad and very nice study and social environment, but they need more table space or better utilization of the space they do have.
Tauryn made my Cali club wrap, Aliscyn made my mixed berry smoothie, and Caroline talked to us while we waited for our food. I must’ve chose a great day to come in! Amazing food and service.
i love the bagels, but something needs to be done to keep savory things savory and sweet things sweet. on multiple occasions ive ordered a savory bagel sandwich and its been trickled with random bites with flavors of peanut butter and other sweet cream cheeses, and when i do get a sweet bagel with sweet cream cheese, i should not be tasting a savory cream cheese in bites, which i have.. multiple times! separate tools for savory vs sweet or cleaning the work station better between customers, something. it really turns me off and i cant enjoy my breakfast anymore.
I always love coming to Bagels and Joe, I come here a lot with my grandparents for breakfast/lunch or with my friends for a cup of coffee and lattes. The ambiance is very inviting and it’s a great pace to chill with people or by yourself. In my opinion, bagels and joe has great tasting espresso, and I’m usually pretty particular about coffee for myself and I think this place is great. They’re always super nice and willing to do your orders however they are. I get the fruit cups a lot and the fruit is ALWAYS amazing quality. I look forward to getting the fruit when I know that we’re going there. The bagels I’ve gotten multiple times are always toasted, warm and covered in their cream cheese which is delicious. I’ve also had their scones and muffins, which I also think are very good. Overall, a great coffeeshop with nice employees, a good vibe and great product
