Crema's Take
“Call Your Mother Deli is a vibrant bagel destination where handmade, pillowy bagels and creative sandwich combinations are clearly the stars—reviewers rave about standout builds like the Sun City with bacon and garlic cream cheese, plus the ability to customize your own creation. The Tennyson location has mastered the art of the busy-but-welcoming neighborhood spot, with good music, comfortable seating, and staff like Megan who keep things running smoothly even during the morning rush. Whether you're grabbing an early breakfast before work or meeting a friend, this is the kind of place that makes you understand why people are willing to wait in line for truly excellent bagels.”

I’ve been wanting to try this place for awhile and boy did it not disappoint. We got three different bagels and all were equally delicious. Thunderbird is a great sweet salty (a better version of McDonald’s McGriddle). Queens point had a perfect amount of spice and cream cheese. The suns city was your classic breakfast bagel that’s a little elevated with the pastrami. Everything was well balanced and delicious. The service was also very kind and patient with us as we asked a billion questions and took forever to order.
Visit Date: 29DEC2025 Time: 0900 Cashier: Megan (I apologize for the misspelling of her name) Order: BYO: •Every Bagel •Turkey •Avocado Spread •Egg Whites •Tomato •Cucumbers My experience was PHENOMENAL! Megan was super sweet, inviting, supportive and patient! She helped me build my dream breakfast sandwich. The bagel was toasted to perfection. Will definitely go back and bring friends with me. The aesthetic of the place was beautiful as well! I absolutely loved the wall art. I was slightly disappointed by the fact that they don’t have almond milk for a lattes but the food and atmosphere made up for that small in convenience.
Call Your Mother didn’t miss. The bagels and sandwiches are awesome, easily some of the best I’ve had. I got the Sun City w bacon and swapped the honey for garlic cream cheese and it was right up my alley. The latkes were also good. The whole place has that “you’re about to eat something amazing” energy the second you walk in. Absolutely worth the stop.
I am from our of town and I wanted to go to one of my favorite restaurants. Unfortunately, it was closed. So, I walked down the street and found this place. Wow. Cool spot! I got the Jetski sandwich and I am thoroughly impressed. I would 100% get it again. While everything was five stars, the staff was kind of rude. No smile. No welcome. Mumbling of words. Maybe it was an off day. I don't know. The food here, though, is really good.
Fun bagel shop offering massive portions of handmade fresh bagels. They're super busy but the wait wasn't too bad and they have good music and decor. Comfortable clean seating and friendly staff. Pastries are good too, shame I missed the babka muffins!
