"In the bagel biz for about three decades now, Philly Bagels is a trusty go-to at several locations around the city. All the classics are on offer here, but so are specials like pizza bagels and rainbow bagels with birthday cake cream cheese." - Ernest Owens, Eater Staff

The new shop is the only one to stay open late, until 2:30 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays." - Adam H. Callaghan

This small walk- up bagel shop has some of the best bagels in the city! High quality ingredients made fresh to order at a reasonable price. Can’t beat it! I got the hot honey (subbed turkey bacon, egg, cheddar, scallion cream cheese, hot honey) on a jalapeno cheddar bagel and it was 10/10!

This adorable “hole in the wall” has really fantastic quality bagels and service! While there are other bagel places in the area, I tend to prefer Philly Bagels. Recently, I found out they participate in Too Good To Go and have had great luck with grabbing my favorite bagels for takeout. The manager, Rob, is always careful to confirm I have no food allergies and is very kind. Every employee I’ve interacted with at this location was been great! Today Rob and Edith helped me with my order which was much appreciated. I highly recommend checking this place out if you like good food and good service!

This place is the best- rob and my sausage egg and cheese on a sesame bagel are the best part of my walk to the office. Food is always hot and fast and you’ll always be greeted with kindness. Don’t sleep on them!

LOVE Philly bagels; they’re so fresh and the service is quick for only being run by two people at a time (for both taking orders and preparing them)

Super fast and friendly. Best bagel and lox I’ve had in a long, long time. The coffee was amazing as well. Came back the next morning for breakfast.

Great little bagel spot! Dani and Celina were super helpful in helping us construct the perfect bagel breakfast sandwiches. We tried the 'hot honey' and 'lox special'. They were both fantastic. The bagels themselves nice and soft with the right amount of chew and the fillings are very generous and great quality. A must try spot if you are in the area! Will definitely be returning to try more flavor combinations! 🤤

Philly Bagel Locust is one of the staples of center city. With the alluring neon signage to the extensive menu, it’s a must stop on your morning commute. Rob is also the heart and soul of this location! He is always kind and willing to go above and beyond for you. This is the small, but mighty breakfast option for anyone!

My go to for the most delicious sausage egg and cheese on a jalapeno cheddar bagel. Rob is always courteous and starts the day's vibe off right. I'm a frequent customer and will continue to be till I'm old and long gone.
