WoodGrain Bagels & Deli
2525 Arapahoe Ave, Boulder, CO
Crema's Take
“This Boulder institution has earned serious credibility for its Montreal-style bagels and thoughtfully crafted breakfast sandwiches that keep locals coming back for more, though the coffee program deserves equal attention with its espresso-focused offerings and pour over options that pair beautifully with their pastries. There's a genuine warmth to the place—friendly staff and quality ingredients shine through—though consistency can be a bit uneven depending on the day. Stop in for an authentic bagel experience with serious coffee chops, ideal for a quick morning grab that doesn't compromise on flavor.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. Quick-grab spot. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Hunter and I just hopped in to grab a bite. I have been to their location in Denver. I told him it was good….well this location is off. The person who took our order was extremely friendly, which we appreciated. The red head working, mmmm, not so much. She apparently doesn’t…
Last straw: today when I ordered delivery I discovered a mystery white substance on my food. It looked...human in origin (*shudder*). I've ordered the Earth Skillet several times with totally mixed results. Sometimes it has avocado, sometimes not. Sometimes if I request bacon…
