Blondies Bagels & Cafe
245 Seven Farms Dr, Charleston, SC
Crema's Take
“Blondies Bagels & Cafe is a beautifully lit Charleston spot where house-made bagels are genuinely exceptional—think asiago bases topped with quality ingredients like black forest ham and creamy cheeses—and the coffee drinks like their white mocha hold their own alongside the pastries. The space itself invites both quick coffee runs and lingering conversations over a muffin, though fair warning that consistency with staff warmth seems to be a work in progress. If you're after a destination bagel sandwich paired with a well-made latte in a pretty, welcoming room, this is worth seeking out.”

I hate to do this, but not a great experience at all. My biggest complaint is the staff. Very rude and impatient. I’ve been a few times now and I’ve never had a friendly interaction with anyone on staff. Secondly, the food is very mediocre. The bagel sandwiches are nothing to write home about and the coffee is average. The atmosphere is okay. But nothing special. Bucks Deli is FAR superior, better food, incredibly friendly staff, and great atmosphere.
The place is lovely, beautifully lit, and the bagels... Oh the bagels. The egg, black forest ham, and Colby Jack on an asiago bagel was delicious! And the white mocha was sublime! I wish I could go back but I'm from out of town. This was a delightful way to start the day. Thank you!
First time there. Has bagels and bagel sandwiches and lots of other non bagel sandwiches. Lots of variety of drinks, including sodas, and coffees. Wil definitely return!
1st time here. So This is ONLY for the muffins. I order both muffins and bagel sandwich’s. Sandwiches were good and tasty 3.5 stars. However also ordered blueberry and poppy muffins and they were dry and had no taste. Had maybe 2 blueberries so it was very disappointing and pathetic. Stick with the bagels if you go there.
This is my first time visiting This café. I came in on April 19, 2025 at 10:00 AM. I ordered the meat egg and cheese bagel on an everything bagel and a 12 ounce latte breve. So the first thing is is that she overcharged me for my bagel sandwich which should have been 675 but she charged me 725 and then I didn’t even get my cheddar which is the cheese that I wanted on my sandwich. It says right there on my receipt cheddar. I don’t know how they missed that. The lady that took my order was rushed and she looked like she was stressed out. My coffee is so extremely hot that an hour later I’m barely able to drink it. I haven’t decided whether or not I will come back into this place but at this point, I don’t recommend. I Don’t appreciate being overcharged and it’s really not difficult to make a bagel sandwich with cheese.
