Reviews for Benchwarmers Bagels in Raleigh, NC

Bagels were very fluffy and good. One of the better bagel places I've had even compared to NJ/NY bagels. Bagels like this are... hard to find. A variety of cream cheese spreads and butter is also great. I had the bacon honey butter which was delicious. Theonly complaint is the prices seem high. $2.25 for a bagel plus $2.50 extra for a specialty spread. A dozen bagels is $22. Read more

Phenomenal bagels. Got a bacon egg and cheese on an everything bagel. It was freshly made. It was everything I wanted in a bagel... sandwich. Worth a visit. Read more

The bagels here are very tasty. Try an get there earlier on the weekend as there is high demand for these tasty bagels and they... sell out quickly. Only complaint is that the vegan cream cheese is a little runny. Read more

This place was a letdown, unfortunately. The ambiance was good and bagels fresh, BUT, 1. the bagels were quite small 2. The... cream cheese in it was the skimpiest ever. They can?t be charging money for cream cheese and essentially put a whiff of it on.It?s half theft. 3. Waited for 10 minutes to get toasted bagels with cream cheese with no line. 4. The coffee was horrid. Youwon?t get a bagel breakfast here with the amount of cream cheese they put on and the size of the bagels. Read more

I got the best bagel I've ever had from here. The everything coating is nice and punchy and covers both sides. The service was... friendly and quick. Along woth there bagels and sandwiches theyalso have great locally roasted coffee. And to top that all off Ifelt like the prices were very reasonable. If you find yourself in the area give them a go for breakfast (Or any time you'recraving a bagel)! Read more

Such delicious bagel sandwiches. They had a variety of unique sandwiches and spreads. The line moved fast and we got our food... fast. I enjoyed the everything bagel sandwich with scrambled eggs + dukes Mayo + bacon + cheese. The coffee they served was alsodelicious. Read more

Interesting flavor combinations. I got the #1 sandwich: avocado, roasted garlic, radish, and charred grapefruit glaze (and I... added a scrambled egg) on a za'atar bagel. Loved the crunch of the radish, the light sweetness of the grapefruit, and thegarlic. Husband got the #9 with bacon. They sandwiches were quite messy to eat, a little too salty, and on the pricey side($17.32 for two bagel sandwiches - each one had an extra add on, but still, and that's before tipping), but all in all aworthwhile trip. There's plentiful parking spaces although we often park at an EV Charger about 0.7 miles away and walk over toBenchwarmers. Indoor and outdoor seating. Staff is friendly. Read more
