Highly recommend going at a calm time (ie not when there’s a farmers market across the street). Great bagels, fresh ingredients and good juice too
The bagels are delicious I would highly recommend popping by for a bite. Don’t expect the service to be great it isn’t. But they do get your food to you quickly and it never disappoints. While presentation isn’t a strong point at the end of the day the bagels always hit the spot. I would recommend the Bagel Salad, Turkey Bacon and Avocado club, and the Lemon Pepper Tomato. Vegetarian options: I am vegetarian and have still found great bagels to eat.
As a Brooklyn native with 34 years of bagel experience, I hold high standards for my bagel joints. Sam's Bagels on Larchmont was my latest stop, hoping to find that authentic taste I've been missing. **Pros:** - Generous portions; the bagel was satisfyingly heavy. - Toasted to perfection; they nailed my request. - Overall, a decent lunch experience. **Cons:** 1. The bagel lacked integrity, with a crust prone to falling apart. 2. The everything bagel missed the mark without the essential large grains of sea salt. 3. The smoked whitefish lacked sufficient smokiness and creamy texture. 4. Subpar tomatoes and lettuce choices, skimping on red onions. 5. The bagel lacked the authentic flavor I crave. While taste is subjective, I've tried various bagel spots in Hollywood, and Hanks in Burbank reigns supreme in emulating the true New York bagel experience. In conclusion, Sam's Bagels on Larchmont didn't quite hit the mark for me. However, I respect their efforts and acknowledge that taste preferences vary. For now, I'll be heading back to Hanks for my bagel fix.
I think this place has potential but the bagel I got today was burnt; I couldn’t even eat the top of it because it was so burnt.
The blt bagel was fantastic but the blueberry one with strawberry cream cheese was a bit bad.
Perhaps the only place better than Belles in Highland Park… I live in Atwater Village and i’m torn on which to go to tomorrow the Whole Wheat Everything is ELITE
