Cafe Bagelicious

I like my bagel voluptuous and these bagels looked starved and anorexic. Tasted good but inside was gross — some areas had not been cleaned for many years and place is in dire need of a remodel. Family owned business with ok service.

So I’m currently eating the toasted Kitchen Sink turkey bagel with pepper jack. Honestly, from the looks of the place it needs a makeover. Not hole in the wall… worse. I’ll update if I get food poisoning. Lol. I am giving it a low 3, since this bagel isn’t too bad and I’m enjoying my café mocha. The owner must be a New Yorker (guessing on accent and Yankee flags… lol) so maybe this is a common New York hole in the wall?
The two boys that worked there were nice and friendly. Service wasn’t too bad. Just needs a big big hug.

This local eatery definitely does have a vintage look, old black and white tile floor, etc., and has a retro feel. It has wonderful, handmade bagels with amazing flavor! We ordered a bagel sandwich and while it did take several minutes to receive our order, the sandwich was handmade, fresh, and tasted incredible. The staff with which we interacted was quite friendly and very patient while we took our time deciding which items to order from their diverse menu.

The bagels are fine. Honestly. I went there for the first time today and I was blown away by how the store has continued under its condition. The store looks filthy. The employees handled my bagel with their bare hands. I never write reviews. But I felt to share that the store is in weak condition. My bagel tasted good. But I will not be returning solely based on the condition of the store.

This is my favorite place to go to pick up a good bagel. Mike (the owner) is a great person to talk to, he’s very warm hearted, and has lots of great stories to tell about New York. Get the Italian combo with lox spread on an asiago bagel. So yummy!

The bagels here are great. I come here all the time — but for the bagels only. If there was another bagel place that was closer that had good quality bagels, I’d probably go there though. I’ve gone here for a long time, and am surprised they’re able to keep going. I’ve never a business with such a consistently poor customer service stay in business. So bottom line, if you want good bagels, this is the place to go — just don’t expect to get out of here quickly (and cross your fingers that they haven’t sold out of the bagel you’re looking for — even if it’s 8 AM).

Arrived at 845 am on a Saturday, there were several staff hanging out. One stepped up and asked if she could help. From the time we ordered until we received our bagels and paid, it took 15 minutes. Several employees walked past never acknowledging us. The staff seemed as if they rolled out of bed and went to work. I won’t return.

Bagels are pretty good but the customer service is so bad. It seems like they get mad when people show up. The man that owns the shop is very rude. I wish they would sell it to people who cared!

Filthy place, rude employees, marginal bagels, and horrible service. They don’t even deserve 1 star.

I walked in while I was waiting for my cars oil to be changed and wanted to relax a little. This place has been here for a long time. I never thought it was the best. However the coffee was decent and even though the bagels are weird looking the one I had was not bad. I had them put a bacon cream cheese on the bagel. I am crazy about bacon. I do think it is kinda sacreligious but I had to try it and it was ok.
I sat for awhile and no one bothered me. It is not my favorite bagel shop and I would not go just for bagels. To sit and wait for my car this might be the place I go as there is nothing else nearby.

What a joke. The place is filthy. The customer service is almost nonexistent. All the kids that work there are nice enough. The owners however, could use a little lesson on how to address your customers. The bagels aren’t even that good.

I would say this is a solid 3+ star place. A-​OK in my book.
The good:
— The bagels are chewy and tasted fresh. I thought they held up pretty well the next day too (kept in an airtight container).
— Prices are great (a dozen + ½lb cream cheese was $ 13 & change)
— Location, if you are looking for bagels off Smoky Hill this is pretty much your choice, unless you are going to a grocery store (blah)!
The so-​so:
— I personally didn’t find the service overly friendly. I thought the guy helping me spent most of our interaction talking to others and not paying attention to my order. I repeated everything I said since others seemed more important.
— At 8:15 AM on a weekday there were already slim pickings for flavors. I don’t do sweet bagels and they have a lot of those. Seemed like there was 1 or 2 of most flavors and a ton of plain. So I got a lot of plain. They offered to make more of a flavor, but that takes at least 20 minutes, so I opted to just take what they had.
— The place has a very well worn deli look. I didn’t dine in so not a huge deal, but it isn’t a shiny clean place that welcomes you in. It is a little disheveled and chaotic.
My hubby loves bagels so I will likely be back. In the end, the product tasted great and I got it at a good price.

I’ve been coming here for New York-​style bagels with schmear for YEARS. It hasn’t changed at all since I was a teenager – and this is something I’m very happy about! I’ve had the chance to speak a bit with the owner, and he is a really nice guy. He loves all things New York, which shows in the things this place offers: AWESOME bagels (goes without saying), black-​and-​white cookies, egg creams (!!!), and a bit o’ sass. I am so glad it’s still here so I can come back and relive the glory days in a happy carb-​induced haze. Yum!

The bagels are hit and miss I live within walking distance so when in a pinch for a quick breakfast my husband grabs us something here. Unfortunatley we seem to forget that they are not quick here but they are friendly.
We usually order a bagel and cream cheese to go with coffee. They always put way too much cream cheese on the bagel, I would say 3−4oz just a crazy amount, so I have to scrap off 1 – 2 oz. Sometimes the bagels taste really fresh, crispy outside, soft chewy inside. Othertimes they are as hard as a rock and taste like nothing. The coffee is average and unmemorable. Not sure what is going on with the place because they obviously own really great receipes but cannot always execute.
The people that work there are super friendly, the owner always jokes around with my husband about his Boston baseball hat. On a good day its A-​Ok but for the most part chain restaurants have better bagels which is unfortunate because I would prefer to support local business owners.
Guess I will continue to stop in once in a while hoping its a good day.

Shameful. Gone to the DAWGS! So filthy and run-​down as to be hazardous to one’s health. Bagels are small and hard and if you want a schmear then expect to pay through the nose. Disgusting coffee, floor is seldom mopped, storage shelves over-​flowing and messy, the counters and work area are so messy and dirty too. Such a shame to run a business that way. I will never return and I hope you take heed and DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!

This place could be so much nicer with a little extra effort. I have been in several times for a morning bagel, and always feel the staff is a little disorganized, and the place a bit cluttered and dirty. Baking racks visible from the counter have junk piled on them, furniture cases are broken, meat is thrown in the deli case haphazard, the floor is muddy.
As for the bagels, they are pretty good. I particularly like the cinnamon sugar bagel with cinnamon cream cheese. They strictly serve LaVazza coffee, brewing up a delicious cappuccino.
I’m on the hunt for another bagel place… the dirtiness has me wondering whether OSHA has given them a green light.

They have pretty good bagels and they are cheap on the price. Family owned by NYers. Not the most amazing bagels ever but definitely good enough for me to go back several times due to proximity of where I live. They even are making me a special batch of multigrain everything bagels because I come in here a bunch. Thats awesome!

Great bagels and great customer service.

Was totally jacked to see a NY Deli/​bagel joint in CO when my in-​laws recommended this place.
The place is simple yet has all you need. Yankees crap all over the place, but allowed, because they are New Yorkers.
We went for bagels, and they were putting some fresh ones out as we looked over the menu. Gotta say though, they weren’t that good. We ordered a bunch and got some different cream cheeses, which also were kinda mediocre.
Not sure how their sandwiches are, or other food, but bagels were just OK. After eating some great bagels in NJ and NY, it is hard to compare, but they try.

Yea, I found a bagel joint right by my house — Woohoo, is right.
(Insert image of me jumping for joy)
We love bagels in this house; of course I’m the picky NY’r who likes them light and not doughy; crispy crust, and lots of air pockets inside is how they should be, and that’s how it is at Bagelicious.
I should also mention the lox was quite good, as well as the pastrami.
The case had plenty of other NY Tri-​State necessities which are hard to find in the Rockies — you know:
The Dr. Brown, Yoohoo, Boars Head, and The Pork Roll; only the small one, but I bet I could order a big Taylor Pork Roll. for AM — Pork Roll, egg and cheese on a buttered hard roll–
All you NY and NJ people are salivating — admit it
