Bagel & Co was such a great find! They have a huge variety of fresh, delicious bagels and schmears. The cucumber dill schmear was absolutely amazing, I just wish they piled more on! I was also pleasantly surprised by how good the coffee was, and everything was very reasonably priced, making it a great value.

The friendly faces and welcoming atmosphere made the experience even better. We'll definitely be back!

Love this place!! Fresh, delicious bagels with a ton of flavored cream cheese options as well as sandwiches, wraps and drinks, oh my!! I'm dying to try the maple bacon cream cheese but I have to get past my love of the Sundried Tomato CC first!!

The service is fantastic, Breezy and Abbie are outstanding. I was welcomed warmly and offered samples of the spreads multiple times. Plenty of parking available. Give them a try, you wont be disappointed!

We were waiting a long time for this place to open - and it was WORTH THE WAIT! The staff was off the charts friendly and helpful; the sausage, egg, and cheese bagel with hash browns was amazing; the apple cinnamon cream cheese was ridiculous; and, the place is totally kid and dog friendly! I told my neighbor it didn't feel like a business transaction but felt like I was with family!

They have won new customers with my large family!

Bagels and Co is officially our favorite bagel spot out here!!! After being here a couple of times, I can say all of the different flavored bagels and breakfast sandwiches we’ve had have been consistently delicious and we are impressed every time. The real star of the show though is the service you get here!! The staff is exceptionally friendly and kind even during their busiest hours. We absolutely love this place and will continue coming back :) Ps thank you for being so kind to our little pup while we waited for our food. The team here is the best of the best!
