The Bagel Mill
212 Western Ave, Petaluma, CA
Crema's Take
“Nestled in Petaluma, The Bagel Mill pairs genuinely stellar bagels—think perfectly fresh lox, creamy seasonal schmears that rotate with intention, and inventive combinations like pesto with sriracha mayo—with a warm, knowledgeable staff who actually light up when helping you discover what's new. It's the kind of place where you can grab a quick coffee and bagel or linger over a specialty drink while the seasonal creativity and genuine hospitality remind you why neighborhood spots like this matter.”

The Jorge exceeded our expectations, I had to call them and let them know. I had mines on the pesto bagel with the Sriracha mayo on the side. The dip was a melodic chef's kiss. I haven't mmm'd and mmm'd in so long. Straight 🔥 🔥 🔥 fiirreee! My companion had theirs on a pizza bagel with the mayo on. Oh my Jorge!! Seriously, go get in line!!
For $3.50, only putting schmear on one side of a bagel is insane. First bagel, last bagel. It makes the entire bagel dry and unenjoyable. Would be better with a reasonable amount of schmear.
This was my first time coming here and oh my gosh 10/10!!! This has to be the best bagel shop that has the traditional open face lox and cream cheese special!! The sliced salmon was super fresh, cream cheese was delicious!! The onions were thinly sliced, and the capers were just amazing!! I was really shook!! My favorite place is in New York City, but this comes right behind! I seriously recommend this place!! The staff here is wonderful, super friendly!!! This is my new spot!!!
The bagels are amazing! Not just OK, amazing. The seasonal cream cheeses are also a must try. Always changing, always good. I too love their rugelach, though I bummed they no longer sell them as a multi pack. They were a sweet little gift. ;)
The workers here seem really sweet and funny 🥰 and they’re happy to help describe and suggest their products to help you decide, which is hard to come by at coffee shops. Just tried their new fall drink 🍂, the Pecan Praline ice latte, made from one of their many housemade syrups and has the warmth in its flavor of a pecan pie. And the chocolate chip cookie is lightly salted, with the perfect ratio of sweet and salty. The space is so nice and spacious yet cozy, with beautiful plants that add to the charm. Sitting at the window bar table, I have such a beautiful view of the little shops and people enjoying the sunny day. I’ve only had good experiences coming here 🤎
