Crema's Take

Bagels & Joe is a beloved Lincoln institution that's earned serious loyalty for its exceptional bagels and cream cheese varieties, with fans driving from neighboring Omaha just to stock up for their offices. The vibe strikes an inviting balance between a quick-grab counter spot and a welcoming gathering place where families and friend groups linger over breakfast bagel sandwiches and hot coffee, all served by staff who genuinely make you feel looked after. Whether you're stopping in solo for your daily coffee ritual or bringing a crew for a mid-shopping break, this is the kind of place where the simple things—fresh bagels, good conversation, reliable parking—add up to something people genuinely miss when they're away.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

This spot is a go to every time we’re in Lincoln. Whether it's their delicious breakfast bagel sandwiches or just a classic bagel with cream cheese, they always satisfy that morning craving. They also offer a great selection of coffee and other drinks if you're not in the mood…

There were 6 of us making a quick stop to eat in between wedding dress shops. Food was good, as was location. Great employees got us in & out real fast.

The best place in town to get your bagel fix. I love the large variety of bagel and cream cheese options. 🥯 Their breakfast bagel sandwich is something my parents dream about each day they are not in Lincoln. So good.
