Never read notes, removed a lot of options, stuffs wrong a lot. Whatever you get is either great or horrendus. Also how are you gonna call that crusty sludge crumble hummus.

The bagels are very sponge-y, chewy and over priced. The wait was also long. I ordered a breakfast bagel. The egg was your typical yellow patty. The bacon was very salty and the cheese was your typical American slice of cheese. If your going to charge a premium price provide premium ingredients.

Visiting Chicago for the first time and had the pleasure of this place being down the road from my stay and let me tell you that I haven’t had a bagel like this ever. The customer service was fantastic and so was the food. Would definitely make this an everyday thing if I lived here

Super good sandwiches. Get there early they get busy. Ask your server for a recommendation. My server recommended the Eggosauraus. It's a spicy sandwich with roast beef, bacon Avocado, egg and cheese. Goes good with a bag of chips and black coffee.

Steamed bagels? Who would have thought that this is exactly what a bagel sandwich needs. They're just so juicy and filled with moisture. Especially as bagels are usually more dense, this works perfectly to be steamed. Amazing pick me up for the morning!

Went with the family, everyone else’s bagel/sandwiches seemed really good but they need to consider a new lox recipe. I was looking for a traditional smoked salmon with cream cheese on a bagel. Instead, I got a some kind of cream spread with pieces of fish and dill scattered throughout. Worst version of this dish I have ever had.

If you want a good bagel, this is not the place to go. The great American bagel just a few blocks west is where I would recommend. Besides not having many options for cream cheese, the bagel itself was just inedible. I took one bite and tossed it. After having the best bagel in New York I have been on a quest to find the best in Chicago and CBA is not the place.

Holy moly! Extensive menu. Steamed bagel sandwiches to die for and worth the slight wait. Really great vegetarian menu -- the Webster Fitness is legit. Also a really great low-key location next to the Belmont Red/Brown/Purple line to tuck away for a minute and recharge. The staff is always friendly and helpful, too! We've been stopping here for years and it is always solid.

If you've ever been to Bagel Deli at Miami University in Ohio, it's pretty similar. They even have a Miami U flag hanging up, so I wonder if it was on purpose :) Either way, the place is great. So many vegetarian options, and the flavor combinations they have on the menu are really interesting and delicious. Service can be kinda slow sometimes, so don't always expect a quick in and out on your lunch breaks.

Overall it’s was a nice deli with lots of selections for bagel sandwiches. All of the bagels are steamed, not toasted. I ordered the egg and cheese sandwich and it was pretty standard. Most sandwiches had meat.

Lovely place, with an absolutely enormous selection of bagels. Only had a few so far, but all have been amazing. Stop quite often on the way home, looking forward to the next time!

Literally the best bagel sandwich I have ever had. The people were funny and nice. It was a longer wait but they kept us updated.

I am a huge bagel sandwich fan. Bagels in general, actually! On a recent visit to Chicago, my daughter found this restaurant through Google. It was not far from where we were staying, so we tried it. Best bagel sandwich we have ever had! Delicious! Fun atmosphere.

Great local bagel place. Incredible selection of bagel sandwiches. Bagels are superb, except you'll want to skip the blueberry one. Baker's dozen with two cream cheeses to go is super easy - they will slice for you!

A fantastic place for bagels! The ingredients are fresh and the portions are awesome. If I’m not feeling extra hungry, I usually save the other half for a midday snack. The Eternal Sunshine is the my favorite ♡

cool atmosphere and nice staff. best chai latte i’ve had in chicago! bagels are absolutely delicious but i wish they were bigger😩

We used to live up the street and this place was always a favorite. I’m back visiting for the first time in years and it is as good as it ever was. I am vegan now and, while they have limited options, they have great vegan sandwiches! It was the perfect snack at the time we needed it. The service was quick and friendly. Can’t wait to come back!

I got some type of chipotle, avocado beef sandwich and taste was a 5 ⭐️rating. They do have the option to order online so that was a plus however this was our first time going there and the wait time on a Sunday morning was about 30 minutes+. Which I supposed it indicates you’re at a good brunch spot. I didn’t have the opportunity to sit down so I didn’t really see what the indoor seating looked like. This place was recommended to us from a friend and would most definitely go there again.

I loved that practically any bagel could be made vegan! I got one with vegan cream cheese spread and vegan cheddar - it was super delicious. Coffee is great too! Sadly, there is an uncharged for plant-based milk which is always a downside for me and hochrage for iced coffee, which is understandable, but the total of coffee and bagel was around 20$

Very good bagels and sandwiches. If I lived in Chicago, this would be a 3 meals a day place, it's that good. I had a Lincoln Pork, very filling, and very tasty. My daughter had a plain bagel with cream cheese. Short wait, and made to order. If I get back to Chicago, I will be stopping again!

Super soft bagel, different from ny bagels but still very good

LOVED the chicken salad bagel which I ate so fast I forgot to take a photo. The jalapeños are a nice addition. I also had the blt bagel a different day and it was good but I preferred the chicken salad. Would go again!

Their menu is unreal, almost any type of sandwich you can imagine on a bagel. Got the honey badger which is a honey chicken salad with bacon, smoked cheddar, jalepeños and shredded lettuce. Delicious sandwiches! Only reason it's 4 stars n not 5 is because the bagel could have been toasted more. Maybe ask for the bagel extra toasted if you're into that like me!

Good bagels with a vegan cream cheese option. There can be a 15-20mom wait for bagels. I did enjoy the coffee too. Coffee options come in 12oz or 20oz. The menu is very extensive which can be a little overwhelming though. Plenty of indoor seating at Belmont location, but no outdoor seating.

For bagel sandwiches this place is best! I always go for the breakfast sandwiches but have enjoyed some of their lunch sandwiches too. My favorites are the dude, the breakfast bagel with scrambled eggs, the Denver and the puck and I always add chipotle mayo. It's worth it to order ahead online and if you're a cold brew fan they have some of the best!
