5 Borough Bagles

Crema's Take

This spot nails the bagel-and-coffee combo for the Urbandale crowd, with house-made bagels that reviewers consistently rank above chain competitors and a welcoming setup that works equally well for a quick caffeine hit or settling in with your laptop for a few hours. The customizable sandwich options and fresh pastries make it feel less like a grab-and-go chain and more like a neighborhood spot where folks actually want to linger, though the industrial vibe means you're trading coziness for practicality. It's become a go-to for both casual mornings and catering orders for local meetings, proving it's the kind of place that takes care of its regulars.

10/10 every time! The menu items are amazing or you can customize to make the perfect sandwich. They also have great coffee or canned pop options.

I came in and got 2 French toast bagels to go with cream cheese after enjoying a coffee and breakfast in store. There was almost a glaze on the bagel and it had a long dark hair stuck to it. The cream cheese was tasty though!

Bagels are better than Panera but not as good as Brueggars. They need to source new coffee to-go cups. They get wet and soggy and flimsy.

Great location for a coffee and a bite to eat. Could probably stay and get some studying or work done too. It's a little pricey on the food and the atmosphere is kind of cold rather than cozy.

We ordered a small catering order this morning for an employee meeting, and it was perfect! It was timely, fresh, delicious, and an affordable price - we will definitely be back again! (We ordered the Union Square with a variety of bagels and cream cheeses, everything was so good!)
