Westman's Bagel & Coffee

I love this bagel shop! It's a cute little shop with a couple of benches outside and friendly staff. The bagels are nice and chewy, perfectly toasted and generous amount of filling. Downside is it's street parking only. Other than that it's a great place to stop and grab a bagel while exploring Capitol Hill!

When I say hole in the wall, I mean it!Note:- they do run out of bagels so if you don't get there early enough.- there really isn't much seating - it's more of a grab your food and coffee and go spotCoffee was good. But I want to write about the breakfast sandwiches!What I recommend:- bacon egg and cheese sandwhich - I can't say it was legendary, but I loved how there is one guy making the eggs in a skillet right there! (I wish they would have done over easy eggs versus scramble, but just a preference .)- bagel with cream cheese - They have lots of cream cheese options. And some great vegan ones. We got the seasonal chives one!- lox on a bagel - My partner got the lox and he just said to me "it was really good", so that's what I'll give it... it's really good.Overall this place was cute and a great pit stop for some quick and good breakfast!

Love getting Westman's on the weekends! Cute little walk up stand on Madison. They have a variety of bagels, schemers, coffee, and drinks. I love getting the bacon, egg, and cheese on the jalapeño cheddar - soo good! The only thing that would make the sandwich better was if the bagel was toasted. Other than that - one of my fav bagel shops in Seattle!

such a hole in the wall (literally)! my friend (who has lived in seattle for the past 5 years) brought me here and it's one of the best bagel places I've tried! there wasn't a long line when we went but don't let that fool you because 10 minutes later, there were tons of people waiting. I ordered their BEC (bacon egg and cheese) on an everything bagel and it was delicious! I'm definitely coming back the next time I'm in town and am trying their schmears!there's very limited seating, but it seems like most people take their orders to go!

Really like this sidewalk stop! Bagel texture is perfectly dense with a good chew. We got there around 1:30 on a Sunday, and they were out of salt and pumpernickel, so we chose pumperthing for the nova lox sandwich and plain for the other lox sandwich on the menu. Both were excellent! My partner wished for a little more from the regular lox sandwich, but I was pretty happy with it. Could be worth adding one of the extra items in the future to jazz it up.I added hot sauce to the nova lox and would recommend. The hot sauce is less sharp and reminds me more of a barbecue hot sauce, some sweetness in there but balanced the sandwich pretty well. The dill schmear is crazy and super infused with dill. There aren't any pickles on the sandwich itself, but the dill Ajmer's with the fresh cucumbers convinced me there was (a big plus for me since I'm a pickle fiend).The americano was also really good and I would get again. My partner got a cold brew and seemed happy with that as well. We are our sandwiches in the park right next door while gazing at the most sustainable building in the world! We decided to go back after finishing our sandwiches to pick up some bagels and lox schmear. These held up really well and the lox schmear is amazing.Their egg sandwiches look super yummy so I really want to try these as well. One thing to note this is definitely a pickup and dine elsewhere kind of place so don't expect to come and stay for a while. As I mentioned before though, there is a park right next door so you can do a little picnic there. Just something to keep in mind if you're looking for more of a cafe vibe. I actually really liked the small sidewalk stop energy though.Finally the service was awesome, we were even given extra day olds when we came back to get our bagels for the week.I would definitely recommend and will be back!

I had high hopes for this place because the lines were long and it seemed like a pretty legit bagel shop. It's not bad, but it's not great? I think I enjoyed the coffee more. The cream cheese was alright and to be honest, the bagels were pretty small. It was crunchy and not really soft... I am pretty picky with bagels since I'm a bagel lover myself, but wouldn't get my bagels here. The extra star was because the people there were super sweet!

I came right at opening on a Saturday morning. There were only two people in front of me. I ordered two bagels, the Nova Lox and the BEC Classic. They were filling but unremarkable. I liked all the cream cheese with the Nova Lox, but I found the BEC Classic to be a little dry. The other main reason I'm deducting a star is because the prices were a bit too high for me. Maybe I'm just not that into bagels!

food: 5service: 4.5 ambiance: 4.5 i've tried many bagels in this city, and i've concluded that i personally like westman's bagels the best!they've got a wide variety of bagels- salt, everything, jalapeno cheddar (my personal fav, its generous on the jalapeno and SPICY!), pumpernickel, and a few others. they also have several schmears and rotating seasonal ones that change every so often. i also really like their different sandwiches, especially the bec (bacon, egg, and cheese) which you can put on a bagel of your choice. i've tried their dill schmesr and whitefish salad too, and it's all pretty darn good! the bagels themselves are big and not toooo chewy and not toooo soft, just right! but you do have to go pretty early, they start getting busy and running out around noon especially on weekends!!! the pricing isn't too bad fir the bagels (and schmear) itself but if you get their sandwiches it can cost you $10+! (but it's worth it!!!!)the staff was quick and efficient but i could tell they were busy, the barista was multi tasking making drinks and running the register, but friendly enough. there's not very much seating, only about 3 seats along their skinny table and a few stools scattered outside, but there is a small park/area a few steps down the street where you can find benches/ping pong table to use as a makeshift table.

First time at Westman's and it has quickly become my new favorite bagel place. Honestly, after a handful of bagels in NY this summer, I think this one may have topped them all. I got a BEC on a plain bagel and added scallion cream cheese. By the time I got there, just past 11 am, the bagel selections were very limited. By the time I left, they were out of bagels for the day so I'd suggest getting there early especially on a weekend. I'm don't usually enjoy plain bagels, but holy crap, this one was amazing. Crispy outside and a perfectly soft fluffy inside and surprisingly amazing taste. The soft scrambled eggs were the star of the show, and the bacon being chopped instead of in strips makes a huge difference. The added shmear was delectable as well.Can't speak on their coffee or lox, but will have to try it at some point. Based on my experience, I have a good feeling about it the rest of their menu.Give this hole in the wall a chance if you're looking for a solid bagel in Seattle. Highly recommend!

Drive by slow as you might miss it. A literal hole in the wall bagel joint. But quite the selection of fantastic bagel sandwiches. It was a long wait, but the guys works like a finely tuned machine. Very limited seats/tables to eat on the premises so be prepared to stand or sit on the side of the street.
