Yeastie Boys Bagels

"If you’ve taken a Saturday morning drive down San Vicente in Brentwood, or Sunset in Silver Lake, or been anywhere in the vicinity of Melrose Place, you’ve seen the crowds outside Yeastie Boys’ bagel trucks. Their bagels are—you guessed it—distinctively yeasty, but the main reason to come here are the over-the-top sandwiches. There’s the Reubenstein, an inside-out bagel sandwich with pastrami, Swiss, sauerkraut, and Russian dressing, or the Game Over, with heaping portions of scrambled eggs, bacon, tomato, and jalapeño cream cheese. They go heavy on that cream cheese, too—and we’re not complaining." - sylvio martins, arden shore, garrett snyder, cathy park

"I know I’m late to the game, but Yeastie Boys Bagel truck always brings a smile to my face when I see it and tears to my eyes when I eat from it. Haven’t met a bagel there I haven’t liked yet." - Michael He

"Yeastie Boys founder Evan Fox adds another truck to his bagel fleet, bringing the number up to seven. It’ll be parked in front of Highland Park’s Cookbook starting November 11. To mark the occasion, Fox’s team is handing out free bagels, doughnuts, coffee, and drinks today from 9:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m." - Mona Holmes

"There’s nothing quite like biting into a breakfast sandwich from the Yeastie Boys first thing in the morning. The choices are vast but the Game Over with soft scrambled eggs, peppered bacon, and beer cheese and jalapeno spread on a cheddar bagel sets the perfect tone for the day." - Eater Staff

"Yeastie Boys’ bagel sandwich consists of dense, chewy dough, paired with a thick blanket of melted cheese and more bacon than a North Carolina hog fest. Called the “Cheddy Wap,” this bagel sandwich feels almost pornographic to unwrap (it’s precut, and you’ll find sticky strands of sharp cheddar when you pull it apart) - which, in retrospect, is sometimes exactly what one needs at 9am." - brant cox, kat hong, arden shore
