Big Bad Bagels

If you’re a bagel lover, you should definitely visit this place. They offer bagels with meat, chicken, vegetables, and even sweet options. The size is perfect for a snack, and the service is fast.

We went for breakfast with a big group – the food was really tasty! It took a bit of time to get our meals, but that’s totally understandable since the place was clearly very popular. Definitely recommend!

Yes! Yes! Yes! - bagels 10/10: they are REAL chewy yet soft (not just donut shaped bread) and freshly made, and so are their fillings - I was there early Sunday morning and they were prepping in full swing. - prices 10/10: it seems they forgot that inflation exists (check photo). - inclusivity 10/10: LOTS of vegetarian, pescetarian, vegan options available. - taste 10/10: I bought plain ones for home (1,5 eur each) and they even taste great thawed from the freezer! - atmosphere 8/10: it's a small space with only two tables, so a romantic dinner wouldn't be your best bet. Go in, have an amazing bagel (actually have two!), continue touring Riga. Overall mostly recommend for two things: taste and value for money.

The shop was already really busy before the lunchtime rush. Three couples were waiting to be seated so we grabbed a takeaway. Our order was ready within minutes and our requests to swap a couple of the salad items were honoured with a smile & without any fuss. The bagels were absolutely delicious, generously filled with quality ingredients and the toppings on the everything bagel made every mouthful interesting & different. We loved it so much we went back again the next day!

The best bagel! I had been to the much busier branch located in the Old Town twice but came here on my last morning in Riga. This branch is located near the KGB building so if your going there, worth stopping here. Nice residential area. Smaller than the other branch with only two tables inside. As it was early, I easily managed to grab one of the tables. There are a few tables outside too. Huge variety including options for those who are vegetarian. They have an English menu as well. I had the Bacon for Breakfast without the bacon as I am Muslim. The bagel was generously filled with cream cheese, tomato and a fried egg. Fresh ingredients and perfect with a black coffee and a bottle of still water. Even the coffee was very good. I couldn't fault it. You need to order and pay at the counter. If dining in, the staff will bring your order to you when ready (if you can find a table, otherwise there is also the option to takeout). Staff are friendly and pleasant. It wasn't that cheap but I was happy to pay, as the bagel was delicious, as was the coffee and service. Very satisfying and filling! Highly recommend.

A popular lunch spot with a wide assortment of bagels. I tried the New York salmon bagel and it definitely hit the spot. We also tried their craft juices, which were very fresh. They have board games and books to lend for dine-in guests. However, there are few seats and it seems like most guests come for the takeaway option.

I saw this place while walking to work and decided to give it a try. I was not disappointed, the bagels are awesome and there is a great selection. They also make smoothies which are delicious. The service was quick and very friendly. There are only 2 tables inside so be prepared to take out if they are full, or you can wait as the turnover is pretty fast.

Highly recommend. Great little cosy place with a wide selection of bagel toppings and good service.
