Bagel Oasis - Seattle

The best bagels on the West Coast!!! I drive about 15 miles just to go here.

My favorite bagel place in Seattle bagels are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.

If you enjoy bagels, this is definitely a must-visit spot. I tried the feta with garlic and dill cream cheese, and it was delicious. The seating area is spacious and the staff are very friendly.

It is difficult for me to give this restaurant 4 stars, as I have frequented it over 50 times and have a personal connection to it. However, the interior and vibe have not changed in a decade and could use an update. The bagels are delicious though, and the outside signs have been recently updated. Despite hearing some interesting stories from my sister who used to work there, I cannot give it lower than 3 stars. The shared bathrooms are unpleasant and the space feels dreary, so I recommend getting your bagel to-go and not dining in. Stick to the bagels and try their homemade cream cheeses, which are very good. After living near this place for over 16 years, my go-to order was a sourdough bagel with normal or strawberry cream cheese. While I could go on with more details, I will end here. Enjoy if you decide to visit.

If you're in search of delicious bagels from a small, local shop, Bagel Oasis is the place to go. However, if you're craving a bagel just like the ones from a New York City bagel store, you'll have to head to NYC.
