Reviews for Chicago Bagel Authority in Chicago, IL
If you want a good bagel, this is not the place to go. The great American bagel just a few blocks west is where I would... recommend. Besides not having many options for cream cheese, the bagel itself was just inedible. I took one bite and tossed it.After having the best bagel in New York I have been on a quest to find the best in Chicago and CBA is not the place. Read more
Super soft bagel, different from ny bagels but still very good
Super good sandwiches. Get there early they get busy. Ask your server for a recommendation. My server recommended the... Eggosauraus. It's a spicy sandwich with roast beef, bacon Avocado, egg and cheese. Goes good with a bag of chips and blackcoffee. Read more
LOVED the chicken salad bagel which I ate so fast I forgot to take a photo. The jalapeños are a nice addition. I also had the... blt bagel a different day and it was good but I preferred the chicken salad. Would go again! Read more
Good bagels with a vegan cream cheese option. There can be a 15-20mom wait for bagels. I did enjoy the coffee too. Coffee... options come in 12oz or 20oz. The menu is very extensive which can be a little overwhelming though. Plenty of indoor seating atBelmont location, but no outdoor seating. Read more
Their menu is unreal, almost any type of sandwich you can imagine on a bagel. Got the honey badger which is a honey chicken... salad with bacon, smoked cheddar, jalepeños and shredded lettuce. Delicious sandwiches! Only reason it's 4 stars n not 5 isbecause the bagel could have been toasted more. Maybe ask for the bagel extra toasted if you're into that like me! Read more
The bagels are very sponge-y, chewy and over priced. The wait was also long. I ordered a breakfast bagel. The egg was your... typical yellow patty. The bacon was very salty and the cheese was your typical American slice of cheese. If your going to chargea premium price provide premium ingredients. Read more
Great local bagel place. Incredible selection of bagel sandwiches. Bagels are superb, except you'll want to skip the blueberry... one. Baker's dozen with two cream cheeses to go is super easy - they will slice for you! Read more
