Calic Bagel

no complaints herealthough the price tag is pretty hefty, i was so satiated on all fronts - taste, aesthetic, texture crispy and light bagel filled with slices of cream cheese, how can this taste bad

It was delicious! I got the habanero bagel. It was the perfect bagel bread texture. The cream cheese was slight sweet with hints of spice. It was more of a spice build up. I starting to enjoy eating spicier food and this was divine! 10/10!I was a bit sad they discontinued the tater tots. My cousin brought me here to try, but no more! But the habanero bagel made it up. There was also a pet event going on and I thought that was so cute!

3 stars but this is my story: It's 2025, vegan cream cheese is everywhere BUT HERE. Cmon -- vegan sandwich was ok but I would've loved a plain bagel w vegan cream cheese or one of their hot habanero bagel veganized. Also, they didn't want to say my name out loud??? Too hard to pronounce maybe??? Too ethnic?? Too gender-non conforming??? they called out everyone else's name... Anyways, my friends who ate the habanero said it was fireeeeeee 10/10 ..... I wouldn't know.

Their signature stuffed bagels are a standout. Imagine a fluffy, freshly baked bagel filled with savory garlic cream cheese and then dunked in rich garlic butter. It's a flavor explosion that's both indulgent and satisfying. While some might find them a bit rich to finish in one go, they're perfect for sharing or savoring over time. THE INFATUATIONFor those who prefer a classic approach, Calic Bagel also offers non-stuffed bagels baked fresh every 30 minutes. These bagels boast a fluffy interior with a thin, crispy crust, making them ideal for pairing with their variety of cream cheese dips. Flavors like sweet corn and fig pecan add a delightful twist to your usual spread. THE INFATUATIONThe ambiance is casual and inviting, with a spacious patio that's perfect for enjoying your bagel in the LA sunshine. Ordering is a breeze with their oversized touchscreens, ensuring a quick and efficient experience.

I finally got to try the much-talked-about Calic Bagel, and it absolutely lived up to the hype! They're known for their stuffed bagels, so I went with the Habanero cream cheese stuffed bagel, and it was incredible--spicy, flavorful, and generously filled. I appreciated that the bagel itself wasn't overly sweet or too dense, which can sometimes be an issue at other bakeries. Instead, it was perfectly soft with a nice crispy edge. I can't wait to come back and try more flavors, especially the new Corn Cheese stuffed bagel --it sounds amazing! If you're visiting in the morning, be prepared for a bit of a wait, but I came later in the day around 1:45 PM (they close at 2:15 PM) and got my order in under 10 minutes. Bonus: there's free parking on the right side of the building, which makes things super convenient. If you love bagels, this place is a must-visit!

Bagels, bagels, I love bagels! If you're going to eat carbs this is the place to go. I love the texture and freshness of the bagels here. There is free parking lot/structure which is rare in this part of town. You can eat there or take it to go. They offer tables inside and outside. Calic bagel takes a swing on different style of eating a bagel. They are well known for their stuffed bagel. We got the bacon scallion Calic bagel. It was filled with bacon, scallion, cream cheese and you tear a piece and each piece is filled with the fillings and full of flavors. It's a lot going on. We also got a single everything bagel with a side of basil and sun dried tomatoes schmear. I enjoy this more and you can really appreciate the bagel on its own. They also do breakfast bagel sandwiches. We got the breakfast Becky and it was really good. I would come back for this. The egg was light and fluffy. Overall, if you're cravings anything bagels, this is your spot.

What a Find?! (this place gets busy!)From their special bagels to fresh baked, I reccomend this place!

Stuffed Bagels -- that is the best thing on the menu and what I would come to Calic Bagel for. If I ate this everyday though, I definitely would get diabetes.The classic, corn cheese, and bacon&scallion were all really good. Corn cheese is on the sweeter side so it was good to balance with the other two stuffed ones. The veggies bagels on the other hand, I definitely prefer other spots. Probably wouldn't order again. Tots were okay too. Good for sharing!Free parking! Seating inside and outside. Sometimes bustling with people so there could be a line at peak times. They have self order kiosks :)

This is the best overpriced stuffed garlicky bagel I have ever had! Why did it take me so long to try this spot?! The coffee was also on point. Inside was small and clean - kinda like a market vibe. Service was good. Order at s kiosk - if you get stuck someone will offer their assistance,There's a parking structure which is easy to miss. Street parking if you get lucky.

I was so excited to try these bagels because I love garlic. There weren't too many people when I went, but the ordering and pickup process is very efficient.I got the signature and habanero calic. I like spice, but out of these 2, I preferred the signature. The cream cheese bagels were soooo creamy - I'm not the biggest fan of too much cream, but if this is your thing, then you'll totally love it.Overall, the bagels were fresh, warm, and super filling, so I'm glad I shared.
