Nate's Bagels
21 South Allen Ave, Richmond, VA
Crema's Take
“Nate's Bagels in Richmond's Scott's Addition location offers a welcoming sit-down space where you can linger over traditional coffee drinks and a full breakfast menu centered around their bagel sandwiches—though bagel quality seems inconsistent, their bacon egg and cheese is a genuine highlight when executed well. The team here genuinely cares about making things right, as evidenced by their thoughtful handling of order mix-ups, and the newer location itself represents a meaningful upgrade from their original spot, giving the neighborhood an actual place to settle in rather than just grab and go.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

First time at this new location. They needed another place bad and this was absolutely an upgrade. You can actually come inside this location to wait for your food and maybe even sit at one of the lil cafe tables. They're bagels are amazing. They are the best for breakfast bagel…
For the last week, I've DREADED having to make this review without angering the entire city. This was NOT Nates. I've been going to the original since 2019 as a regular customer and I love them with a passion. When I heard they were opening a second branch - I was THRILLED!…
