Bagelmania Coffee House
8861 Adams Ave, Huntington Beach, CA
Crema's Take
“Bagelmania Coffee House is a beloved Huntington Beach institution where loyal regulars rave about consistently excellent bagels made with genuine care and attention to detail, though the drive-thru experience can be hit-or-miss depending on timing and staff. They deserve credit for thoughtful touches like gluten-free bagel options, and many customers return year after year for the quality and heart that goes into their food, even if recent visits suggest some inconsistency has crept in. If you're willing to go inside rather than rely on the drive-thru, you'll likely discover why this independent spot has earned such passionate devotion over the decades.”

Went by the drive thru a lot of times now. When I go around 2 for some reason there is a person on the speaker that speaks broken English and makes you repeat your order at least twice. Also it takes about 20 minutes in line no joke! People actually pull out of the drive through because it takes so long. The rest of the time I’ve been it’s been great. There is a guy there that’s super friendly and mellow. Always helpful
This place used to be amazing. My last two orders at the drive through have been wrong. I checked my order today and it appeared to be right but I didn't realize the truth until I got home. The first time, I requested a bagel with cream cheese and some chicken salad. The bagel was scooped out with no cream cheese at all. Today they gave me tuna salad instead of chicken salad. I don't think the issue is with the person taking the order. I think it's the kitchen staff misinterpreting the order completely.
I'm still trying to figure out how I have never been here before. First experience was amazing. I can't wait to come back. And they have gluten-free Bagels!
I've been coming here for years and every time I have a great experience. The food quality and consistency is top notch. You can tell the food is made with care and love. Especially being able to support a small business makes a difference! Must try for bagels!
If you enjoy a soggy wet bagel that they “toasted” with barely any cream cheese for an exorbitant amount of money, this is your place! Been coming here for decades and no longer will. So disappointed.
