Finagle A Bagel
535 Boylston St, Boston, MA
Crema's Take
“This beloved Boston institution has perfected the art of the casual Saturday morning ritual, drawing regulars back week after week for customizable bagel sandwiches that taste genuinely homemade rather than mass-produced. The no-frills, quick-service vibe makes it ideal for grabbing coffee and breakfast on the fly, though there's also enough outdoor seating if you want to linger and enjoy the simple pleasures of a perfectly toasted bagel with quality cream cheese. What keeps people coming back isn't pretense—it's honest, straightforward food made fresh and served with genuine efficiency.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Here’s the deal. Bagels are IT. They are so so good. Your bagels taste like they are from the grocery store, or Costco. Are they?? Do you make them fresh? Please please for the love of god try a new recipe. Go try a bagel at a specialty bagel shop and compare it to yours to see…
Service is fast and efficient! Bagels are not too big and they taste good. Cream cheese is good. My son ate the whole bacon, egg, and cheddar on a plain toasted bagel and said it was good. He also ate a whole cinnamon raisen bagel with cream cheese, also good. I really liked my…
