Crema's Take

Tucked away on a charming cobblestone street near downtown Dallas, Starship Bagel is winning over New York transplants and locals alike with hand-crafted bagels and creative schmears that genuinely rival the real thing. The cozy, family-friendly spot buzzes with life even on holiday mornings, and while the off-the-beaten-path location takes a little hunting, regulars swear the Supernova Lox and Bagel and house-made spreads like basil cream cheese make it worth the detour. Beyond bagels, their straightforward coffee program and light food options make it a perfect casual meeting spot where quality clearly comes before rushing.

As good as any I’ve tried in New York. Got the Supernova Lox and Bagel with an everything bagel and scallion schmear and it was delicious. My coworker got the plain bagel with honey almond schmear and she said it was the best she’s ever had. I got there around 9:30am and they were out of a few varieties. I had wanted the jalapeño cheddar bagel but they were out. Cinnamon raisin seems to also be quite popular. Traffic wasn’t bad when I went but I can see parking being a pain if you’re there just for this. Definitely worth checking out!

First time customer. My expectations were very high due to the stores claims of having the best bagel and me being from New York. The place is hard to get to if you are in a rush due to lots location. Being in downtown Dallas and the limited parking makes it tricky and difficult to get in and out quickly. Also if there is inclement weather you're stuck outside while you wait, order and wait. The customer service is very good. Very quick, welcoming and professional. The packaging is done excellently. I bought an onion bagel with cream cheese and a cinnamon raisin bagel with butter. I though both bagels had generous helpings in terms of the spread on the bagel. Many places aren't as generous but this place does it right. The onion bagel taste was great. Quality onions, placed outside the bagel and loaded all over the bagel. The taste was spot on. The cinnamon raisin bagel also had a good taste. Both bagels were also the proper size. Not sure if it's due to the location and the extreme cold weather but the bagels were not very soft and rather tough to chew. Also don't like that they don't cut the bagels in half as it makes it more messy to eat especially when eating a bagel with cream cheese. Overall it was one of the better bagels I had in Texas but I was hoping for a tad better.

We went to starship on Christmas morning, and we were so glad they were open. It was surprisingly pretty busy, with several groups of people waiting to place their order at the window. The wait is outside, but the spot this little bagel shop is located is right next to the iconic Dallas eyeball so it makes for some nice views. Just be sure to dress appropriately as I believe there’s almost always a line. We took the bagels to go. We liked them! To be totally honest, it’s not our favorite Dallas bagel, but they’re good. We will try again.

The hype over this place is well deserved. I am originally from New York, and I found my bagel to be delicious and just like the ones I miss from home. I ordered an Italian bagel with basil cream cheese. I’ll definitely be coming back in the future.

The location can be a tad bit confusing as it’s not directly off of a main street. It’s located near the Woolworth and tucked in the adorable cobblestone road. The bagels and spreads were delicious, and the service was fast which we appreciated compared to other bagel shops with longer wait times! They did have a decent amount of sold out bagels on a Saturday morning by 10am, so be sure to order early as it’s clearly a hot commodity for a multitude of great reasons.
