East Coast Bagels

The bagels are fresh and delicious, and the prices are reasonable. I had cheese melt, which is nothing like what I expected (in a good way) This bagel was very well served, and it will fill you up. There is plenty of parking space, and the menu has so many good options, which I still need to explore.

This bagel shop is always busy, which is a good sign. The bagels are delicious, and the coffee is good. Customer service is nice, but they take forever to get your order in, resulting in long lines. Despite the wait, it’s a great spot for bagels.

The line out the door is a great sign you’re going to get some good food! First time here and we all enjoyed our bagels, even our East Coast friend. Really liked the quality, taste, and texture of my bagel. I will say be careful if you are ordering a sandwich and want cream cheese as they all don’t come with cream cheese, so you may need to specify. So now I know for next time! Service was quick. Prime time on the weekends seems to be between 8:30 and 9:30. They have a lot on the menu and you can also take home homemade spreads. I tried the chive and it was amazing! The decorations inside are super cool with lots of broadway movie posters. Will be making this a regular stop on the weekends for breakfast!

I can’t say a negative thing about my experience here. The service was attentive and welcoming. The food was prepared at a quick rate. The bagel sandwich was freshly made and extremely delicious. Would come again

East Coast Bagel is one of my favorite local shops in the Canyon Crest Towne Centre. I come here regularly and this small mom and pop shop is always busy when I come in. I love their house-made cream cheeses (e.g., Strawberry, Sun-Dried Tomato, etc.). And I especially love their Score Garlic Bagels!! Oh and if you’re into Broadway musicals, you’ll find some of your favorite musical posters on their wall! Favorite things to order: - Score Garlic (add Sun-Dried Tomato Cream Cheese) - Honey Bagel (add Strawberry Cream Cheese) - Eggwich Deluxe on Bioly Bagel and melted Provolone Cheese)

Freshly made bagel. Best bagel sandwiches in town. They can make anything and service is very good. Suggest you go early because they do run out of options early.

Definitely a place worth checking out. Came here and got the turkey melt over their garlic bagel and the extreme avocado melt over their garlic bagel and the orange juice. I must say, the extreme melts are the way to go. My regular turkey melt was good but the extreme was awesome. The orange juice was nice and tart, not really my favorite kind of orange juice since I have a sweet tooth, but it paired nicely with the bagels. Will be coming again and trying the extreme version and more.

Always delicious fresh bagels, just be prepared to wait in line as they are very popular. My only criticism is the very small amount of cream cheese they put on a bagel - your better off buying a few bagels and getting a tub of cream cheese to add yourself

Pretty standard bagel location that offers a larger coffee bar and lattes. The sandwiches come out quick enough and the staff is friendly. Seems to be like a popular local spot

WOW! I love this place. I've been coming here for 8 years now and every time I am happy after my meal. This place has the best bagels and they have such a great variety. This is a family owned restaurant that cares about their customers and employees. I see the owner in the shop every day and he never fails to smile when I walk in. Every time I come here I get the chipotle on a score garlic bagel and that has been my order for the past 8 years. I think the score garlic bagel is the best bagel. I really enjoy it. My boyfriend's favorite is the lox bagel. I tried it and it is also just as good but I still prefer eggs or salmon for breakfast. The only downside to this place is that it is pretty pricey. I believe the prices on the menu do not include bagel prices but I am not 100% sure. I just think this because every time I come here it says something for the bagel but then I always end up paying about $2 more than what is says and I know tax isn't $2 on something that is $6

Food is amazing, the bagels are extremely delicious! Cute location, good vibes.

East Coast Bagel in Riverside offers a diverse and impressive menu with a wide variety of options to satisfy any bagel enthusiast. The quality of the food is excellent, and there is something for everyone, from classic bagels with cream cheese to more inventive bagel sandwiches and toppings. However, the seating area is quite limited, which can be a drawback during peak hours. The space feels more utilitarian and geared towards quick dining rather than a cozy, relaxed atmosphere. It's definitely more of an "eat and go" spot rather than a place to linger. Overall, East Coast Bagel in Riverside maintains a solid reputation with a 4+ rating, thanks to its great food and variety, though improvements in seating and ambiance could enhance the experience.

Went for breakfast they were somewhat busy as there was no seating inside but plenty of seating outside. Got the bacon cheddar breakfast sandwich on a cheesy onion bagel and orange juice. Overall it was pretty good although I felt like a sauce would have been good on the bagel, the orange juice was good not from concentrate. The price was a bit high but you do get a freshly cooked bagel and they make the sandwich when you order it.

Mid. Very mid. First off the prices are pretty high for what you’re getting. Second off I really dislike the service here. I understand being in a rush but everyone is so disheveled. Its like they rolled out of bed in a bad mood and were just pissed they had to go to work today at all. The food is fine. Not great portions or proteins. The bagels are good. Hats off to the baker. The sandwiches themselves have always been lacking. Today was the final straw. Order the cornbeef and pastrami. They forgot the cornbeef and the pastrami was just dry and lame. Forced me to leave this review. Doubt I’m going back.

It’s a decent café with a limited selection of lattes and self-serve gas station-style coffee you can customize. The food was a bit on the bland side, but they offer a good variety of bagels. Just be aware when ordering from the breakfast menu, the price listed doesn’t include the bagel, it’s charged separately.

Ordered the club on a spinach herb bagel. Tasty! My partner ordered the same on a whole wheat bagel. His sandwich was much smaller due to the small sized bagel. His mocha was served scalding hot. The dining area is small and could be better maintained.. cleanliness wise. A very confusing sign in bathroom.

Sandwich Bagels are good. Cashier helpful and polite. But bagel was not toasted enough this time. Asked if it can be toasted again but one of the kitchen cooks was not nice she seemed she did not want to toast again and they were not busy.

The eggs in my egg and cheese bagel were grey and watery. If you press on them water oozes out. It’s kinda gross and I couldn’t bring myself to eat them. I picked them off the sandwich, making it the most expensive 8 dollar plain bagel I’ve ever eaten.

Bought a bagel for $7 (eggs cheese and bacon) the bagel was extremely dried there was no spread or cream cheese so I asked for spread and they charged me $2.89 for a tiny portion of cream cheese so bagel was $10 :( smh

I was excited to try East Coast Bagel, but the experience didn’t quite live up to expectations. The bagels themselves are good—soft with nice flavor—but I would definitely recommend asking for them extra toasted if you prefer more texture. One thing that stood out was that the eggs and meats appear to be pre-made and reheated in the microwave, which takes away from the freshness you might expect in a breakfast sandwich. The service also wasn’t very welcoming, which made the overall experience feel a bit rushed. If you’re familiar with true East Coast breakfast sandwiches, another difference is the cheese. Traditional East Coast sandwiches typically use American cheese, which melts really well and gives that classic flavor. Unfortunately, that isn’t an option here, which changes the taste and authenticity of the sandwich. Overall, the bagels themselves are solid, but improvements in freshness, cheese options, and customer service would really elevate the experience.

I got a lox bagel and the taste was delicious, but for the price there was hardly any salmon. When I opened up the sandwhich and saw that the salmon wasn’t even a full layer, I was disappointed.

The lunch sandwiches have 3 slices of corned beef on them. Very disappointing for the price. Pictures looked good online but in person it’s ridiculous.
