Bagelshop

This place is delicious. Hands down, from the assortment of bagels to the freshest coffee everything is 10000/10. The staff is always amazing and handle the hungry crowds like pros. I come back every time I visit and I bring bagels home (that’s a 6 hour drive!). Wish I could move just to be in the same city. Will be back (again). (Delicious flavors every week. Bite me.)

New York style bagels have found themselves in Nashville! All the bagels tasted light, fluffy and fresh. From the savory lox bagel, to the french toast bagel (definitely get the maple pecan smear). and the staff puts a favorable “heap” of cream cheese on in. We’ll be taking some bagels home to share with friends. Plenty of seating and kids love the bench wall. Calm and welcoming atmosphere. Drip coffee was perfect, not too strong but still packing flavor.

As you can see by the empty plates, your food will not disappoint. This place has a lovely atmosphere. The service was friendly and enthusiastic which always goes down well. The bagels were big and delicious so you might be taking half home for lunch. You’ll be called to collect your coffee from the barista up front and your food will be brought to your table, hot and freshly made. Can’t beat that kind of start to the morning. Definitely worth a visit and don’t be surprised if you become a frequent flyer 👍🏼 parking available out front or around the side of the building for a short walk through the complex directly to the front door.

The Bagel Shop in Donelson is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with the warmest smiles and genuinely friendly staff who make you feel like part of the family. The owners clearly care about every detail, and it shows in the service and the food. They also partner with other small local businesses. The bagels are nothing short of perfection—crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, just like a proper bagel should be. And don’t even get me started on the schmear—creamy, flavorful, and always fresh. Whether you're a bagel purist or love trying unique combinations, there's something here to make your morning (or afternoon) better. Highly recommend stopping by—it will be your new favorite breakfast/coffee spot!

Love Bagelshop! They consistently have imaginative menu items as well as the classics. This PA girl is so happy to find good bagels in Nashville! Also, their coffee slaps too 😄

So excited to find such a great vegan bagel in the area! It was pretty busy but the line moved quickly. The bagels themselves are vegan and they have two vegan schmear options. I ordered an everything bagel with vegan scallion dill schmear and a decaf oat milk latte, both of which were fantastic. There is a lot of space inside to sit, and there is a parking lot with a lot of space.

The New Yorker on spicy everything bagel was awesome. The cappuccino was good. However, the cortado had more milk than desirable. It should have been one to one ratio.

My favorite bagel shop in town and an important part of my Sunday routine! On Sundays I usually take two yoga classes at the nearby Movement Lounge and my treat for working so hard is a yummy creation from Bagelshop! I love the variety of specialty bagels and that they do so many collaborations and popups with other local chefs and restaurants. I’ve been exposed to so many wonderful new flavors and combinations! Also, still patiently awaiting the return of tiramisu cream cheese🙏🙏🙏

The Benny is one of the best bagel sandwiches in town! I always get mine on the Rosemary Sea Salt bagel and add sausage. If you like a sausage egg and cheese, you will love this version! There can be a bit of a wait on weekends, but the staff does a great job of processing the orders quickly and getting food out to everyone. Even when I have thought that the line looked really long, it has never been too bad! This is great place to meet up with friends for breakfast!

The Bagels and Cream Cheeses here are delicious. Today was my first time here. I was intrigued by their "Spicy Everything Bagel," so I ordered one (not toasted) with Veggie Cream Cheese. It was delicious. The Spicy Everything Bagel here is not only a bit spicy, but the seasoning is on both the top and the bottom! And the Bagel has the right amount of snap and chew. Pairing the Spicy Everything with the Veggie Cream Cheese made me super happy. The staff were friendly and the latte I ordered was very good. There is a good amount of indoor seating and the entire restaurant vibe is casual. Their pastries also looked really good. I will definitely return soon and I highly recommend the Bagelshop in Donelson.

Amazing bagels! They are soft and chewy, everything you'd hope for in a bagel. I can't wait to go back and try more. The coffee was outstanding, I really like the bean blend they use. They have plenty of inside seating and a nice shaded patio area outside to enjoy when the weather is nice. I got The New Yorker on everything bagel with the feta and garlic schmear. I have no notes, I'm now obsessed with Bagelshop. You don't wanna miss this place.

fresh & unique bagels daily! Coffees are delish and service is fast ! They are always coming up with the most fun combinations. Once a month they host a quiet book club where you can order mocktails/coffee and small bites. Super heartwarming and such a good time. Great way to meet likeminded people & enjoy some good food !

Great little bagel shop! We shared a single bagel with lox and it was plenty. Definitely will come back on our next visit to the area.

I heard many things about this bagel shop and had the opportunity to finally make the way. I got two bagel (to share) one sweet and one savory - the avo and the fig with goat cheese. I was shocked when got my plate, I thought it would be a sandwhich but it was more of a opened faced bagel with toppings on each side, not sure if it would've been different if I asked from them to-go. Though it was good and great for sharing it would've been nice to know. The parking for this location was great, the ordering process was a breeze and the service was great. On a busy Saturday morning I was able to grab a table and not feel rushed to eat/drink my order. I do like this bagel shop but only would be back if I am in the area.

This is such a hidden gem! I had the avocado tartine and added turkey and I also tried my friend chicken salad bagel- both were so good! Restaurant was clean and staff was friendly. Would def recommend!

Bagelshop has been on my list for quite some time now, and like most Nashville locals, it ended up being lost on the never-ending quest to "try this place out". Well I finally did it and the fast casual shop did not disappoint. I ordered The Benny with sausage which was the perfect pick after a holiday. You can choose your bagel and add a meat for extra cost. It's massive. The bagel itself is fresh and soft, and the sauce they use may have changed my life? Verdict is still out on that.. I walked in to order and only waited about 5 minutes before I was at the register. Even when they're busy, the team moves efficiently ensuring every visitor gets their bagel fix. I was in and out in less than 15 minutes. If you're looking for a great bagel a smidge outside of the city (with ample free parking, hello!!!) take the quick trip to Donelson for Bagelshop. I'll be back soon to try one of their sweeter options. It's called balance!

They have honestly I think the best bagels in all of Nashville. I have been following them since 2020 when they got started. As a former NYer it is hard to find a good bagel and whether it is a LOX bagel, cream cheese, or some specialty like the Bourdain or Nashvillian. I have never been disappointed. I usually go with my daughter and wife at times. There is plenty of parking, the staff is great and the owners are great people.

After they first opened, I wrote a review about how incredible everything is, except how overstimulating it gets in their space when it's busy (a 'me' problem) and how I wish they had outdoor seating. Flash-forward and now they have a cute little outdoor space. Not only do they have incredible food and drinks, kind staff, quick service, good music, and great vibes... they also truly value community feedback and.. just the community in general, which you can tell from the abundance of signage and events they hold at their space.

Located under The Flats apartments in Donelson Plaza next to the Dollar Tree. Good food and coffee, great music and good aesthetic. I was dissatisfied with my cappuccino , tasted very bitter and burnt. They were nice enough to replace it with a hot latte. Great service!

Updating my review after being a regular customer for almost a year. Lately it seems like my bagels have been a little more inconsistent and that's always a bummer. Sometimes I get a huge bagel that has an inch of cream cheese and it's great, and there's mornings like today where I get a teeny tiny little bagel with a whisper of cream cheese. It would just be great to know what I'm getting for sure every time so I can order accordingly.

This is my go-to Saturday 7 am bagel pickup. I actually set the alarm I love this weekend routine in our neighborhood so much. I'm always met with hospitality in a smart vibe where I'm offered great food. And yeah, the bagels are chewy--they're adapted from the Montreal style to this market. Don't like it? Ok, then, find what works for you. But don't two-star troll on local businesses simply because they don't cater to your highly particular and refined taste. Drive-by Yelping isn't cool.

Darn, quite disappointed by my first Bagelshop experience. After making the drive out to donelson, specifically for the tuna melt sandwich. It did not come as described. I received my sandwich, and it didn't look like there was cheese in it. I asked the staff about it, and they said it was in there but white so it looks the same. However the whole point of a tuna melt is for the cheese to be melted, as it shows on their socials. And it definitely was just a cold piece of cheese. Also they ended up giving me their siracha bagel, which I didn't order. Hopefully I'll get to try it again and get something else instead. But not likely to be making the drive out just for this spot.

Had been excited that Donelson was getting a bagel shop. But after this visit, I probably will not be back. Service was very slow. You order at the counter which I certainly do not mind but it took quite a while for me one bagels with lox and cream cheese to arrive. Finally had to ask and it had just been sitting for a bit. The lox was only "fine," certainly not a reason to return. Bagel itself is OK but does not approach some of the other bagel shops that are only about 15 minutes away.

I really like this spot. Best lox sandwich in town, hands down. And super good people. Ordering online, I appreciate that you can sub cc flavors, edit the level of toast, and they even have an opinion scoop out some of the bagel. I add pickled red onion Now- I'm not going full 5 stars because I was disappointed by the vegan options. The vegan lox is oil based. I was really wishing it could be like a lox flavored carrot or something more "real" especially since the vegan cc is basically whipped oil. I sincerely do appreciate that they have such a full vegan menu, any I know I'm probably in the minority with my disappointment.

A great spot in Donelson for Bagel Lovers! The Plaza with Scallion and Dill Schmear with Fresh Cucumber and Tomato was such a treat. Favorite Dishes: Asiago Bagel, The Plaza

I'm so happy to have this place in the neighborhood! The bagels and cream cheese never disappoint. This last time I tried the New Yorker (lox and cc) and a cappuccino -- both were 10/10. Employees are very nice and the vibe of the shop is nice to chat! I came several times over the summer on my breaks from work and they always got me my food quickly.

Best bagel in town! I do a build your own with the aoli which is amazing. A hefty portion for a good price. The atmosphere is super comfy and a great working space. The people are so helpful and happy. I crave bagel shop regularly

Bagels were very good but I've had better. The egg I thought was cooked to perfection! Very open nice space and workers were very friendly.

We love this bagel shop and especially enjoy the Friday specialty flavors! Also appreciate they have multiple vegan cream cheese options for my husband who is lactose intolerant. We always bring a dozen home with a tub of schmear. Have also attended silent book club and the atmosphere is super fun with delicious pizza bagel bites.

by far THE BEST bagels i have ever had in my life. store was so cute with lots of sitting (and standing) room. staff was more than kind. will definitely come back again if ever in town!

Was really good when they first opened, but unfortunately went downhill quickly. Bagels are never toasted even when specified "extra toasty boi", added hashbrowns option tastes like they were freezer burnt and then microwaved, and amount of cream cheese has become less. Also some staff- particularly 1, sucks. Give us something good donelson!!!!

I stopped by the bagel shop in Donelson today and ordered two sandwiches to go along with a mocha latte. The mocha latte was solid, and the woman who took my order was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the experience went downhill from there. I watching my two sandwiches sit on the counter for nearly five minutes as several staff members walked by and ignored them. As I finally got up to ask if they were ready, one of the employees--who was making drinks and wearing an extremely unprofessional tank top--responded with immediate rudeness. His appearance, including visible armpit hair and skin conditions, was frankly off-putting in a food service setting. I wasn't being difficult--just trying to check on my order--but was met with attitude instead of basic courtesy. This interaction was shockingly unexpected and disappointing enough that I won't be returning. And I work in this plaza frequently!

Food was really good, the bagels were pretty thick. Lines are kinda long but food is served fairly quick. The drink are okay .The vibe was a East Nashville, hipster vibe. Bagels are really good. Overall pretty good experience!!

Came in on a Sunday morning and the place was pretty busy. The line to order wasn't insanely long, maybe 6 customers before me. It took about 10 min to get to the front and place my order which isn't too bad. I ended up ordering a French toast bagel with mixed berry schmear. It took a good 25 min to get my order which I think is ridiculous for a bagel and schmear. I understand if you need to wait a bit longer for a sandwich that needs to be cooked but toasting a bagel and putting some schmear on it shouldn't take that long. It seemed like they didn't really have a good system of getting these orders out fast. I was really hoping that the bagel itself would redeem this place but once I opened my bagel, it was covered in everything seasoning. That definitely ruined the bagel for me because I was hoping for a sweet light French toast flavor with a hint of fruits but instead got hit with the powerful everything seasoning. It was on both sides of my bagel and even got into my schmear. I don't think they kept their workstation clean in between orders, or else this wouldn't have happened. Now the texture of the bagels: I prefer my bagels fluffy with a slightly crunchy outside and soft interior. This bagel was very dense and almost dough like. I'm not sure if I came on an off day, but I doubt I'll be back when there are many other places to get great bagels in Nashville.

I truly wanted to love these bagels. I've waited with such anticipation for this shop to open, yet I doubt I'll visit again. I'm a New England girl who knows bagels! Unfortunately, I felt these were extremely dense. I ordered a dozen to take home. They were all different sizes and far too thick for my taste. I like a hard crust with a chewy middle. Ended up bagging them up and handing them to a homeless gentleman downtown.

SALTED ROSEMARY!!!!!! These bagels are fantastic. Fresh, intriguing flavor choices and a variety of schmear options. The staff is genuinely helpful, and once your order is in, the service is fast. It might take awhile to get through the line--but know things are quick after that! Finding a seat is tricky when it's busy, but people are usually kind enough to give you a heads-up when they're about to leave so you can snag a spot. Their coffee is pretty tasty, too!

GREAT little local bagel shop! Bagels are ALWAYS on point!!! Loooove the spicy options! Super cute ambiance & tons of options. My iced latte was perfect, everyone was so helpful & kind! *DON'T LEAVE LESS STARS BECAUSE YOU THINK EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE ALL THE "vegan" OPTIONS, super NOT COOL! They are not a "vegan" establishment so should not be rated on that. 5 stars + all the way!!! Support local!

This was my first time going to the new Bagelshop in Donelson. I'm from Donelson and I was so glad to see that we had a Bagelshop! I ordered the Honeysuckle Latte, which uses their house lavender and honey syrup. I got mine iced with oat milk, and it was delicious! The lavender was more herbal than sweet, which I really enjoy! For my bagel, I got a bacon egg & cheese on everything! The bagel was nice and crunchy with the everything seasoning, and the eggs were fluffy and flavorful! The cheese and bacon they use goes perfectly! The service was very quick and friendly! Everyone was very attentive and warm. The inside is adorable! The lighting was nice with how many windows there are, and there's lots of space to sit down to read or do work. I took mine to go, but on a day where I have assignments to work on, I could totally see myself enjoying the space! They also have very cute branding, which I am a sucker for! Highly recommend!

I love this little shop! It's right by the yoga studio I attend and it's so nice to have something new in the area. I love their bagels, the variety of spreads, and how generous they are with everything. The drinks are really good with some unique flavor combinations. My only complaint is that they didn't make the tiramisu schmear a permanent menu item- I definitely don't go as often since they took it off the menu, even tho everything else is really good. That was just *it* for me. The yogurt bowl leaves a LOT to be desired and I have several friends I can't bring with me bc the yogurt bowl is the only gf food offering, but I genuinely enjoy going in by myself and sitting to work and eat. Take-out is always super quick and they really move the line quickly as well. Highly recommend

I finally got to try this coffeeshop/bagel shop today for lunch! It's been on my list for a while. This shop is super cute and the staff was very friendly during my visit. It's bright and open inside. This is great for to go orders or dining in. Definitely a place to get some work done if you need a change of scenery from your home or school. I loved the bagel sandwich I got. It was filling and delicious. I tried the chocolate covered strawberry with oat milk, which was a season drink on the menu. I definitely want to come back for other coffee items. There's a lot of parking here and it's aesthetically pleasing inside. This would be good for groups too as there are lots of tables and even games to play!

Sooooo good!!!! I'll definitely be back to try more If you're in donelson and looking for awesome bagels & coffee go check them out!

great coffee and bagels. I also love the breakfast platter, for days I'm not in the mood for bagels. Fantastic service! 5 stars!

I love this place so much. The staff is great and the food is amazing. I'm a bit of a bagel snob originally from NJ so it's great to find something to that reminds me of where I grew up. Recommend the Spicy Everything Bagel and the specialty seasonal coffee drinks

The place is cute and the staff is friendly. The bagels~ not so much; very doughy. BUT I am also from NJ originally so I'm a tough critic. They were fresh and that's a good thing.

Fresh bagels just like you picked them up at H & H bagels in NYC. Great service delivered to your table. Clearly of tables are quick. Outdoor seating is available too.

Best bagels in town hands down! Staff is so chill and super nice. Rewards system is great, ambiance is laid back. Delicious schmear flavors. Great coffee too! Quickly became my favorite morning spot.

This is the cutest little spot, with super friendly staff and bagels that are to die for!. I'm super picky...I visited for the first time this morning, and was warmly greeted and my order was taken promptly even though they were BUSY. I ordered a bagel with bacon and cheese, and it took about 5 minutes for them to prepare it for me. It was everything a bagel should be...crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside, perfectly seasoned (I got jalapeno cheddar - the bagel of the day) with a generous amount of bacon and cheese. It came to me warm and melty and was fantastic.

My friend & I agreed that this was one of the best bagels we have ever had! Sooo good & cute location. We will be back to try some more of their menu!

My husband and I love going here on the weekends. It can be a little busy but that's just a testament to how delicious the food is. We love the Benny (add sausage) and we also like to get a sweet bagel too.

So we do absolutely love this place and we frequent it often!! However, this past week I came in and placed a to go order. I had my baby on my hip and was trying to wrangle her (haha) so I didn't check the order before I left. I got home and it was wrong. :( I messaged them on Instagram- didn't see anywhere on their website to reach out) and it's marked as seen a few days ago but didn't get a response. So, I would say definitely go check out Bagelshop but also, check your order if it's to go before leaving because we ended up not being able to eat half the order due to an allergy!

The positive reviews are def from southern locals, Being from NY, I am unfortunately still on the hunt for something resembles real bagel

A GREAT option for a coffee and a breakfast item. Always very friendly and the food is fresh and extremely tasty. I always ruin my diet when I'm in Nashville for one of their bagel sandwiches. Don't pass this one up.

Honestly, I can make the same bagel sandwich for under five bucks. It cost 22 dollars for a vanilla iced latte and a turkey egg and cheese bagel. The food wasn't bad but if I'm going to have a 22 dollar breakfast, I expect something truly special.

Awesome breakfast menu also smoothies. Very polite people. Food very delicious also very nice atmosphere.

Been here a couple times now & everything is delicious! I think I've tried every kind of bagel that I can have (can't have cheese) & they're all great. My fave is the rosemary sea salt & French toast, but I'm happy with any. You can tell they're fresh. The drinks are also pretty good (my husband raved about the cereal milk latte) & I've always had good service, but what sets this place apart for me is that they make vegan cream cheese in house! AND there's multiple flavors! There's plain, strawberry & dill/chive. All of them are fantastic! Again, you can tell it's fresh and the strawberry does not taste artificial at all (which is the problem I usually have with strawberry flavored things). I make a point to come here when I'm in the area doing yoga or visiting the comic shop (or getting my bike fixed like today). Try this place!

Amazing customer service! They really go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and appreciated. I ordered ahead using a Halloween themed name and was gifted a surprise "hand" shaped (iykyk) bagel at no additional charge. I am a repeat customer and they sealed the deal with that! I will continue telling everyone about how delicious the bagels are and also how wonderful everyone working there is! Always a smile and a "good morning" or warm greeting from every employee. The iced lattes are fabulous as well. Very smooth and just the right amount of sweetness. Thank you Bagelshop for making my weekend with your great service and yummy bagels and coffee!

One of the best breakfast spots I've been to in Nashville. The Benny on a spicy everything bagel is incredible and always hits the spot. Service is always quick and every employee I've talked to has always been kind and helpful if I'm in an indecisive mood. I highly recommend stopping by and grabbing a bite to eat!!
