Love this place! Parking can be a challenge but it's so worth it. Quality bagels and baked goods, a cute and homey environment if you choose to dine in. Staff is chill, but welcoming. You won't pay an arm and a leg for a good solid breakfast or bagel here. But it will taste like it!

Feeling sad about all the recent menu changes at Beauty's/Wise Sons. For months I have ordered the veggie bagel sandwich for lunch delivery, almost daily. It used to be a generous helping of open-face bagel halves topped with cream cheese and yummy veggies. Recently the menu has changed and then changed again. The generous open face sandwich became a closed smaller sandwich for a higher price. That's right, less veggies, less cream cheese, higher price. It always tastes soggy now, even when I ask them to toast it. Then today I opened my sandwich and lo and behold the bagel was literally half the size it used to be. Like a freaking micro bagel. The only reason I could convince myself to pay $20 for lunch is that it was actually 2 meals for me (or at least a meal and a snack). No longer so. Just sad. I do really like their salted chocolate chip cookie but even that has gone downhill recently. Used to be a beautiful soft cookie, generously sized; now the edges are crisp and browned all the way around. Bleh. Wish this place would return to its former glory.

Still no call back or apology.Will not support this business anymore. The bagels at Bageltopia are better. I just liked their pastrami.

I've always heard about this place but never passed by, and how happy I am now that I finally did. The breakfast sandwiches are just out of this world. The best, if not one of the best bagels I've ever had in The Bay, and what might be basic breakfast ingredients turn out to be a perfectly made sandwich bagel. Yes, it may take you 5-10+ minutes to find parking, (I'm reading some reviews), and yes ordering mistakes happen, but when you walk in the door, you really get the vibes of an amazingly run family business. 5/5 easy!

Beauty's Bagel Shop, with its impressive Yelp following and over a decade of service, had lots of promise to rival the other greats in the area like Poppy and Boichik. With all due honesty though, I found it to fall just shy of the other wonderful bagel spots in the East Bay. This is not to say that they're bad. Personally, I found them just decent. I came here with a friend at 12 on a Saturday only to find all bagels being sold out with the exception of the pumpernickel and everything. I opted for the pumpernickel classic (closed-face) while my friend chose the everything for her veggie open-faced sandwich. The bagels came out quickly, and the presentation was nice. I remember seeing other Yelpers rave about their pickle slices, a complimentary addition. But, they didn't seem to serve them this time around (perhaps they nixed it off their dishes) but our kind server gave us the phallic whole upon request. The bagels themselves were good but not mind-blowing by any means. My bagel was a bit stale, but I appreciated that they didn't toast it which allowed for some of the natural chew to remain. The lox was a nominal portion, but disappointing as it may be, $14 is a lower price tag considering the prime location. I probably would rather head up the street to Poppy next time, but if you're in a hankering for bagels, Beauty's sure won't disappoint.

Had a fantastic time my first visit to this lovely bagel place. I was lucky because it was kinda empty so I got to meet Scott and Jordan who are so hospitable!!I was saddened to find that they do not have lattes because I saw a few posts mentioned how good they are but this shop doesn't have an Espresso machine. I had their iced coffee instead and let me tell you friends, it is VERY caffeinated lol I love itI ordered a mushroom breakfast sammy with a side of their crispy potatoes and the bagel is soooo soft on the inside! Excellent texture all around. I wish it had more salt but I am very salt-oriented so it could just be me lolMy dad had a classic breakfast sammy and he thoroughly enjoyed it. Like to the point where he demanded I buy extra for him to take home lolDefinitely check it out when you get a chance and say hi to Jordan and Scott!

It's changed since it was sold to Wise Son's but it's still a legit bagel spot in the area. Service can be meh and super SLOW like today (March 2024). Not sure if there was an employee that was late but they were slow when we got there and our food took way too long. Not sure what happened but guessing there was a rush of people and they got backed up. The bagels are still pretty good but they are not AS good as they were before in my humble opinion. There is no longer chai latte served here either. The chocolate chip cookie is still really good though!

What's not to love? Great service. Really great food. I love their pumpernickel bagels. Their bagel sandwich with lox, cream cheese, red onions, and capers is so good. I always consume it before I think about taking a picture of it.This year I picked up some latkes for Passover. The latkes are the best I've ever had and the apple butter is divine!

I came here on a Sunday morning, and was easily able to find street parking. There were a couple of people in the restaurant and it wasn't overly busy. The music and vibe was lovely and nice. I received my order pretty quickly. The customer service was really great. The people there explained the different items I wasn't familiar with and were very patient.I didn't eat the toasted bagels until over a hour later, so I can't speak to the freshness of them; they were as expected hard by the time I ate them. The everything bagel had good flavor. The plain bagel was softer.

Regularly one of my go to bagel shops. They make Montreal style bagels which are a little thinner than a New York style bagel. Bagels are excellent. I've also had the fried chicken sandwich which was excellent. The matzo ball soup was a little understated for my taste but was packed with chunks of chicken, noodles, and carrots. Latkes were perfectly round hash browns and were creamy like a fried mashed potato rather than a shredded potato. Different and delicious. Cute building with casual seating inside and out. Employees there are very friendly and welcoming. Love this place.
