Crema's Take

This Boise bagel haven crafts artisan varieties that locals return to four or five times a week, from showstopping black lava salt to gluten-free options, all generously schmeared and paired with strong coffee. The place hums with killer music and genuine hospitality—they're equally at home catering sorority events with budget flexibility or hand-rolling fresh sandwiches to order for your quick morning grab.

Goldstein’s catered an event for my sorority and they were amazing! They communicated quickly, were able to accommodate to our budget and changes, helped with creating the order and accommodating to allergies, overall they made the process so easy and nice. The bagels, cream cheese, and veggie+deli platters were delicious. Everyone absolutely loved it, and the quality was amazing. I highly recommend!

They have the best bagels, black and whites and rugelach in town! They are also very generous with the schmere. Coffee is strong too! Oh, and they have killer music!

Wow, the bagels, what there were left, looked like art. A wide artisan variety, including black lava salt, pumpernickel & egg everything, gluten-free, & bialys. They make hot & cold sandwiches to order, as well as bagging them to go. Seasoned cream cheeses, lox, & sodas too. Nice spacious airy atmosphere. Boise's OG. The everything pumpernickel needed a little more salt.

Goldstein’s Bagels are fresh and delicious bagels done right. I come 4-5x a week… I’ve got a few favorite combos that always hit the spot. For example, their Black Lava Salt bagel with honey pistachio cream cheese is a total winner. EGG bagel, I love pairing it with either garlic or lemon dill cream cheese. Favorite sandwich:, the “New Mexican Cousin” sandwich is my absolute favorite, but all their sandwiches are really good.

Decent bagels, mine was pretty dry and burnt with not much filling but the rest of my groups bagels look much better with more filling or moisture. Would recommend ordering one of their options with more filling and maybe even not toasting it to ensure it has a good amount of flavor and softness! I like how they support local artists with limited run t-shirts and stickers too
