Crema's Take

Backyard Bagel is Seattle's go-to spot for chewy, authentic New York-style bagels that punch above their price point, rotating through six core flavors plus a creative monthly special that keeps regulars coming back. The Ballard Lox sandwich and their generously cheese-laden varieties have earned genuine loyalty from the neighborhood, and they've proven equally reliable whether you're grabbing a quick breakfast or coordinating bagels for a community event. It's the kind of place that feels like a local secret but works hard enough to deliver excellence whether you're stopping by solo or ordering by the dozen.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Very good NY style bagel. The sandwiches are yummy. I still prefer the fresh warm think skin of Hey Bagel but this is close second. The skin is thinner(something my partner prefers) it doesn’t give the firm outer shell I want. Everything topping was amazing and better than…

I'd heard this bagel spot was good, but it was so much more than that - just absolutely incredible I got the Ballard Lox sandwich - which is a pretty standard bagel & lox, coming with capers, a dill cream cheese schmear, red onions, and a couple cucumbers. Every part of this…
