Bagelmania Coffee House

This place is hit and miss. Sometimes it's a delicious bagel, other times it's a burnt bagel or one with the most meager smear of cream cheese. I feel like Bagelmania gets hugely hyped by the local crowd, but just doesn't deliver. All told, I'll swing by for the family if I'm in the area and they ask, but it's not a place I seek out or suggest.

This place is great! The staff are all over the top friendly. The bagels are all great. They have seasonal flavors and other bagels you won’t find anywhere else, like a Hawaiian bagel with coconut.
There is a small drive thru that gets backed up quickly in the early morning. I recommend walking in and ordering. It’s much quicker and efficient and better for you and the planet!
There are a few tables to sit and enjoy your breakfast. They also have breakfast sandwiches and coffee, of course.
They sell the day old bagels inside the store. It’s two four packs of bagels for $5. Can’t beat that deal.
If you order cream cheese, make sure to ask for a small amount because they glop a huge thing on top of the bagel that makes it inedible for me.

Best jalapeño and cheese bagel i’ve ever had. One bagel with cream cheese is enough to fill someone with a hearty appetite. There is a great selection of cream cheeses available and even a drive-thru for when you don’t want to hop out of the car. Have been a fan since my first bite.

My only small criticism is that occasionally they will toast the bagel a little too much and char some of the outside (see below) but it doesn’t happen frequently enough for me to drop a star.

WOW!!!!! I love this place- I’ve been coming here for breakfast over the last month and have not been more satisfied with a bagel place. I’m from the East Coast, bagels are very near and dear for me, and this place absolutely hits the spot. They have a drive thru which is super convenient, the seating outside is nice, and the coffees are made just right. I will def be back

Updating previous grade because this place is definitely the best bagel place in Orange County. The line can run long but easily worth it. I love the Mexican bagel. The people are always friendly, the outdoor seating is nice and covered (and heated for cold days). The variety of coffee is great too and I love that you can buy whole beans to take home too.
