Bronx Bagels

The bagel dog with cheese and bacon is my absolute favorite. Quick, friendly quality service. Tasty bagels and other treats. Overall a great place to pick up a snack.

I understand that any place selling bagels outside of the five boroughs must be given some leeway in the quality of their product despite the fact that bagel places should never be built outside of said boroughs. With that in mind I stopped for my second trip to Bronx Bagels (a baffling choice for a bagel-​representing location) prepared to apportion a great deal of salt to this Sutherlin landmark. I have also awarded an extra star for this disability.
First let’s talk about pumpernickel. Calvin Trillin wrote an entire article in the New Yorker about his daughter’s indignation at the «round bread» being passed off as a pumpernickel bagel. Reader, let me tell you that the young Ms. Trillin could have been referring to this storefront bakery slanging mushy, carb-​y, flavorless circles of cooked dough.
I ordered my usual bagel: toasted, scooped-​out (necessary at round breaderies), with just fresh lox and cream cheese. What the dour, matronly proprietress brought out — with an ORANGE SLICE as a garnish — was, from the bottom of the acceptable lox and cream cheese down, a trainwreck. The bagel was, aside from an almost imperceptible crispness along the periphery, flaccid and far from toasted. Any scooping-​out was also perfunctory and clearly done without any regard for the customer’s glycemic index.
I honestly am not someone who complains or sends food back. Unless there is an unwanted human or animal part in my food, I am unlikely to bother the server or kitchen. This time was different. I just couldn’t abide the fact that this horrible food wasn’t even prepared as I had politely asked! And the coup de grâce was the owner’s entirely predictable reaction that there was something wrong with ME if I couldn’t enjoy her ambrosia. She insisted that the bagel HAD been toasted — belying either a nihilistic disingenuousness or a faulty toaster.
When I finally left — deflated, confused, and angry at a world that would let a place like Bronx Bagels exist — I reflected on the fact that my inedible meal cost $ 10. At the Bagel Hole on 7^th Ave in Park Slope, Brooklyn — the best bagel place in Brooklyn, putting it in strong contention for the best bagel place in New York and thus the world — the same bagel costs $ 6.

I’m on a lox and bagel kick right now and have tried three different establishments. The lox was absolutely tasteless. The mocha was completely… nasty… yes, that’s the correct word! So disappointed. Another reason why I shall never return is the attitude of the owner. I eye witnessed an encounter she had where she was beyond rude, mean and nasty like her coffee. I know she’s the owner because she had to tell the others ahead of me in line.

Stopped by for a quick sandwich and breakfast burrito.
Breakfast burrito: not good. Microwaved eggs and rubbery tortilla
Turkey pocket: off flavor and also microwaved
Wont be back.

This is the best tasting and freshest food you will find in Sutherlin. I love all of the options and I doubt you can find something that doesn’t taste good here. The only disappointment is that the people who run the place have a dry attitude.

Another fabulous breakfast here. The bagels are fresh and delicious! We look forward to stopping here in our travels

Great bagels. Fast service. Right off the freeway and there is always parking.
We try to stop here every time we drive by which isn’t often enough.

My sandwich was good but the lady was, shall we say perfunctory? Plus I expected a freshly made egg. Given how large the place is I thought they had a huge, functioning kitchen hidden in that back room. I did not expect a microwave egg.
Sandwich was good though.
2.5 stars. Going back to my bagel spot in Roseburg.

Delicious and large sandwich, came with chips and a pickle. Cheap, quick, and fresh!

My girlfriend and I were driving home from our road trip and needed to stop off and get some lunch. We happened upon this place, based on a billboard on I-​5. I am glad we stopped!
The staff is super friendly, they had super soup (cream of broccoli) and bagels. We were both so full on half of our sandwich and soup, we got the rest to go.
It’s a cute place, great selection of bagels and sandwiches. A must go if you are traveling in the area.

The bagels and the service hear are top notch. Locally owned friendly family atmosphere with a NY flare.
I had a sausage, egg and cheese bagel sandwich, hands down one of the best I’ve ever had. Being from the east coast, this definitely compares to an authentic NY bagel. The other food looks just as good too!

Breakfast burritos was not very good.
The lady that works there also guards the newspapers so beware.

Selection of bagels was awesome. So many different options. I wanted to try more but only had room for 2. Had the ham & egg bagel sandwich with blueberry and orange bagel. Also had the onion bagel. Reasonable prices.
Bland décor with NewYork theme. Would recommend as a stop along I-​5.

We were just passing through and it happened to be lunch time. Nice little locally owned place, good service, very fast with the sandwich. The menu has lots of good looking salads and sandwiches, bagels, etc. the espresso was really good too! I definitely recommend for a quick breakfast or lunch if you are not into fast-​food greaseballs.

Stopped by Bronx bagel on my drive from se Oregon to Seattle after seeing the billboard. I’m vegan and bagels are my mainstay. The bagels are pretty good (I got 4 garlic) but the selection was pretty low. The reason for 2 star review was a
The horrible service. The lady behind the counter was rude and demanding and sighed loudly when i asked her to slice my bagels!!! Rude.
But the bagel tasted great…

Great breakfast sandwiches, but the bagels look like they’re frozen, not made in the store.

We saw the sign on our drive home up I-​5 and decided to stop and have lunch. A welcome change from the fast food restaurants after two days of traveling! Being originally from the East Coast I can’t give this place 5 stars because nothing beats REAL New York bagels but this was a wonderful lunch. We ate the tomato Gorgonzola sandwich with a New Yorker sandwich. My husband also had an apple cinnamon bagel toasted with cream cheese. It was a satisfying and tasty lunch. It must be popular with locals as a few people came in and were asked, «Your usual?» I’d recommend it if you’re driving by at lunchtime!

I ate here both mornings that I was in Sutherlin. The first morning I asked for a bagel with cream cheese and lox. They didn’t have such an item on their menu and asked if I wanted the New Yorker, with came with cream cheese, lox, onions, and tomatoes. I didn’t want onions and tomatoes, but they went ahead and charged me the full price of the New Yorker anyway, which wasn’t very cool. Also, the bagel was so lightly toasted that it was cold within minutes. Still, it tasted pretty good. They are also generous with their cream cheese, if you like that.
The second morning I just asked for cream cheese, and I asked that the bagel be sent through the toaster twice, which did help with the getting-​cold-​too-​fast factor. I think their toaster only toasts on one side, though, which is a little odd.
They also have breakfast bagels and pockets and sandwiches and wide variety of items for both breakfast and lunch.
I had a lot of trouble finding out their hours ahead of time. No website, no info on their voicemail recording. As of this writing they are open seven days a week, 6am on weekdays, 6:30 on Saturday, and 7am on Sundays.
Not the most fantastic bagel place I’ve visited, but it’s the best breakfast option available in Sutherlin and I would eat there again.

This place sucks, really sucks. Don’t waste your time — a real disappointment.

I will start by saying I am always happy with the food here. Fantastic bagels and the sandwiches are superb. I have eaten here every time on my many trips to Roseburg, but this last trip will be my last, unless…
Store hours have always been until 3pm but today when I stopped by at 1:45 they were closed!!! Unless I hear that there was an emergency, family death, or other reasonable explanation I will never return again. For me this is a major deal breaker if your customers cannot count on you being open during «posted» business hours.
