Absolutely perfect bagel — had the onion bagel with jalapeño cream cheese, and the flavor was spot on. Fast service and tasted super authentic. Highly recommend!

I’ll miss the bagel here! The sundry tomato cream cheese is so rich and creamy. This is definitely my brunch to-go place.

The smell and sounds were all so genuine and rich in culture. Their bagels had their familiar crusty bite but just melted in your mouth once you start chompin' I ordered the Cinnamon Raisin bagel with a Cinnamon Raisin cream cheese spread. And as redundant as that sounds I think the spread fell too short of the markup price just by taste alone. Equally, the bagel was grilles which is a welcomed method of toasting, however, it had the grills residual flavors of garlic, salt, and some other questionable flavors left unrecognizable due to the other sweet flavors. I finished the bagel and spread with a med hot chocolate of SwissMiss and whole milk. It wasn't too hot, so I was pleased I could drink it right away. Overall 5 stars but the rookie mistake of a not so clean grill set the flavor profile a star below.

I always found myself grabbing breakfast from this place for almost four years. And in those 4 years, they never failed to meet my expectations for a good breakfast Sandwich. The staff were lovely to talk to, even going further beyond to remember my order as my "usual" whenever I went in. Little to no wait time between their orders. The breakfast sandwiches were never anything but amazing. A great hole in the wall spot to grab breakfast before work.

Love this place, the bagels is always top notch. I love that there is plenty of options. The best part, is having your bagel neat! Nothing falls off / apart. Very neat and organized, my go to is cinnamon raisin bagel, sausage, bacon, egg, American cheese, avocado and jalapeños with jalapeño cream cheese and a side of small black coffee. Pricey but worth it, and supporting local is always a plus.

I get breakfast here just about every day. The bagels are amazing, they use fresh eggs so their sandwiches are delicious. I always get a tomato egg and cheese on a spinach bagel and it never disappoints. Theres a larger than average cream cheese selection and I haven't tried one I didn't like. PLUS everyone that works there is so kind and lovely. It's an amazing place!

Their veggie breakfast burrito hasn’t changed at all in 12 years, and that’s a good thing. It’s weirdly hard to find a quality breakfast burrito these days, and BGO’s is fresh, not too heavy, and served with an amazing salsa.
