Bagel Broker

Bagel Broker is THE best place to go for all your breakfast needs! Not only are their bagels DELICIOUS — I would know since they kindly deliver to my workplace’s entire building, every single Thursday! Gotta love «Bagel Thursday», but their customer service is outstanding and the relationships they build with their clients are just amazing! I’ve worked with Jason and Jaime directly and they are ALWAYS so kind and helpful! They are doing a special catering order for us for this weekend, and the process has been so smooth despite all my changes and millions of questions!
Go to Bagel Broker for the experience, and for the Bagels of course! You wont be disappointed! How can you go wrong with authentic bagels and genuine people helping you out :)
Thank you everyone at Bagel Broker!

I order Friday breakfasts for the office that I manage and the Bagel Broker never disappoints. Not only are the prices reasonably low but the delivery drivers are consistently early, the fruit is incredibly fresh, the yogurt bar is delicious, the muffins are scrumptious, the hot coffee is delectable, the lox cream cheese is amazing, but bagels are an office favorite. I get thanked each Friday for providing such a yummy spread but in all honesty, the Bagel Broker does most of the work. I just set the food and drink out in a nice arrangement and then eat to my hearts content! If I am lucky, everything doesn’t get gobbled up in the morning and I can have seconds for lunch. I could not recommend the Bagel Broker more.

Having a graduation party and needed a fruit platter. I searched online and found the best deal here. I ordered a large fruit platter (for around 25 – 30 people.) I faxed my order around 3pm the day before and it was ready at 9 am the next morning.
It was bigger than I thought it would be, fresh and everything was sweet. Two kinds of cantaloupe, pineapple, strawberries, raspberries, huge blueberries, two kinds of grapes, watermelon, grapefruit and oranges. I was in and out in a few minutes (it was a Saturday.) There was fruit left over. I will be going back. (I wish I had gotten bagels!)

I personally think they have the best cheddar jalapeño cream cheese I’ve ever had. It’s amazingly good. The bagels are okay and it was something like $ 8.50 for two bagels with spread which I think is wayyy too much.
I’m going to give them 3 stars for the great service and cheddar jalapeño. I’ll try it one more time and get an egg sausage cheese bagel which weirdly is only about $ 4.50… Wayyyyy better value than my cream cheese bagels lol!

They probably have one of the better bagels in the area. I go every so often in the morning to grab a bagel with their tasty cream cheese and a drink. There’s always a stream of customers in the morning and luckily there’s a lot of parking. Although the line goes out the door once in a while, the BB has ample staff and the line goes fast. So for taste of the bagels, convenience and ease of ordering this is the best in the area.

Being from NY, this is the closest thing to an authentic NY bagel joint. Amazing bagels and a «no frills» atmosphere. I live right down the street so I come here multiple times a week. When my work schedule allows it, I will go every single day. Never left a review until now. On weekends it’s pretty busy so there can be a little bit of a wait, which I’m fine dealing with. It’s not really clear who is going to take your order, especially when the line is out the door. I had trouble hearing the employees clearly. Today, someone came out of the back and walked right up to the counter where I was and looked at me in the eyes and said something. Couldn’t hear it very well, but I started ordering. And he stops me and says «my hat is backwards. I’m not working up here». Okay… Cool dude. How am I supposed to know that the direction that your hat is facing means fucking anything? The attitude was super unnecessary. And I think he noticed he was rude, because he changed his tone after that.
Anyways, I like this place a lot, 5 stars worthy, but today’s experience is what prompted me to leave a review. Every other employee I’ve encountered has been just fine, if not outwardly friendly. Yeah, I got my bagels this morning, but I’m a little turned off by the service I was given. Minus 2 stars for that rude guy. Nice work buddy!

One of my favourite places for breakfast. The bagels are incredible. If you want New York style bagels, this is as close as it gets.

GREAT bagel egg sandwich! Super fast, no frills. They even have a parking lot! Definitely going back.

I have been looking for my bagel place and did not find any luck. I love NY bagels and whenever I go I eat like a bagel a day to make sure my cravings are satisfied before I come back to LA. BUT, this place is pretty close to my NY bagels. The bagels are so chewy and hard on the outside, the inside is soft and chewy. I can never make up my mind when I am here. I got the Plain bagel toasted with lox cream cheese. It was perfect. I have also tried the Jalapeño bagel toasted with jalapeño cream cheese and that was perfect too. The people here are great too, friendly and fast.

My review for the bagel broker is long overdue. This is one of my favorite bagel spots simply because it is so original and they have the most delicious bagels with the best ingredients. Expect a long line in the mornings as this is a lot of peoples favorite spot for grabbing a bagel and coffee or an afternoon bite. My favorite is the everything bagel– but then again all of their bagels are acceptionally delish!

Authentic– New York style bagel place! I was so happy I looked to Unilocal to help me find the best place nearby. As you probably know, 4.5 stars is pretty rare, but I think deserved in this case– great bagels!
I got 10 bagels, cream cheese, a parfait, and a muffin for around $ 20 which I thought was a pretty good deal, then I ate the bagels– GREAT DEAL! I was so stoked! I am of the mind that you know a good bagel when it makes the loud ripping noise as you are cutting it. That slightly chewy outside matched with the soft and almost buttery inside? PERFECTION.
The veggie cream cheese was really good, and the cheesy onion bagel was DELICIOUS. Loved this place, and will make the drive from my friends house to have these again next time I’m in LA.

I come here way too often for breakfast (every other day) so it’s safe to say I’m a fan. The bagels are fresh and I’ve never had a bad one.
1 star off because there’s always so much confusion when I order the «lite» cream cheese aka low fat (a more expensive menu item). Sometimes I actually end up with «lite» but 90% of the time, I’m given «light cream cheese» aka not that much cream cheese. Even when I try to explain which cheese I want it usually ends up being incorrect. At this point, I’ve pretty much admitted defeat and just accept my extra calories. Clearly, it’s not THAT much of an issue if I still come here multiple times a week, just a little annoying.
Also, as for parking, there’s a tiny lot where you can always find a spot, so no worries about having to find something on the street!

Decided on this place since it was near the grove and we were going to be late for a baking class. This place gets crowded and the parking lot is super small. We decided to park on the street.
There are a good amount of choices for the bagels. We ended up getting two hot bagel sandwiches. Both, of our sandwiches were egg, sausage, and cheese. The bagel of our choice was everything bagel and poppy seeds bagel. I enjoyed the everything bagel much more than the poppy seeds bagel.
I think next time, I would want to try their cream cheese and the other bagels sounds good too. The bagels tasted fresh, however, its not something amazing that I would go out of my way to get. If I was in the area, I would pick some up to eat for breakfast for the week.

Standard bagel joint.
Egg, cheese, and ham sandwich on Jalapeño cheddar bagel with added chive cream cheese (3.5 stars): Good sandwich but nothing spectacular. They only put like 1 slice of ham it in)=
Good amount of bagel and cream cheese choices. The chive cream cheese needed more chives though, wasn’t very flavorful.
PARKING
Small parking lot. There is also street parking.
ATMOSPHERE
Few tables inside. Not a place you wanna stay and hang out in for long.
SERVICE
Everyone was really nice. Took a while to get our order made.

I’ve been coming to this place for ages and have not been disappointed yet. The bagels are fresh, super fresh if you’re there early. The staff moves through the orders with a well orchestrated ballet of executed moves and quickly gets you out the door. Of course you could stay in and enjoy the small dinning area too. If they had an outside, I would never leave.
All the usual toppings, bagels, coffee, and beverages. Whether you like it toasted or not (try the not) bagel brokers will corner the market of your bagel cravings. You may not convince your New York friends that this place is the real deal, but do you really care what they think?
See you in line!

Came at around 7:45 AM on a Friday morning and the place was buzzing! Waited in a line with about 3 – 5 people in it, and ordered an egg, cheese, bacon bagel sandwich for about $ 4.85.
The guy who helped me was microwaving the ingredients and that was a little bit of a turn off, to be quite honest. I know they do that everywhere, including Starbucks for example, but I think it resulted in a slightly rubbery texture.
Maybe I came hoping it was like the bagel carts in New York that cook it for you fresh, which is a little unreasonable perhaps. I think I just came with higher expectations after reading some of the reviews.
+Cheap
+Free parking lot
+Location on Fairfax is easy to get to
–Relatively longer wait than anticipated, even with multiple staff members
–Taste wasn’t as great as expected, bagel was burnt on the bottom
–Saw a few flies on the cream cheese… meh

I usually go to Canters for my bagels but lately this has been my go to place for quick in and out bagels.
The staff is great, friendly and attentive. They take the time to make your orders even if it’s super busy.
I recommend coming here early as it tends to get busy after 7am. Not a bad sizing of lox and bagels for $ 8.95.
Parking is the only downside but also if you get here early, you won’t have an issue.
Overall a decent place; tables and chairs are also located inside if you want to eat there.

Finding great bagels are not as easy as one may think. I was fortunate to get introduced to Bagel Broker (Thank you Alan B).
Located in a little strip mall on Beverly, a tiny block east of Fairfax is where Bagel Broker is located. Parking is available in the lot but if not, it’s easy enough to circle this tiny block and find street parking as well.
Inside the store are cases of bagels; from plain, with fruit, with cheese, with seeds and the list goes on. I’m a vanilla type person and my favorite was the plain with flavored cream cheese.
They have breakfast bagel sandwiches as well and it didn’t take long to prepare either.
The have the baker’s dozen (buy 12 and get 1 free) and the baker’s ½ dozen (buy 6 and get 1 free); pricing out to 92 cents per bagel. How do you like that for pricing?
Most important!!! The texture of the bagel is just how I remember my NY bagels to be; soft and chewy and then– smothered with the creamiest cream cheese!!! Believe me! this is a bagel lover’s delight!

So I can’t give it 5 stars for two reasons. First: parking was a hassle we had to find a place to park 2 blocks away and walk here. Second: the bagels were delicious, but I’ve also had much better.
Price wise it as the most affordable bagels I’ve had in LA. The bagel comes with a side of potato salad and pickles and is delicious.
I ordered a cheese onion bagel toasted with the cheddar cheese so that it melts and then added tomatoes onions avocados and a little bit of mayo and mustard. My order was taken out quick and was ready to be eaten in the matter of a minute. I definitely recommended trying this place if you haven’t.

Definitely one my favorite bagel places in LA! My boyfriend lives around the corner from Bagel Broker and we frequent it for a Saturday breakfast almost every week.
Outstanding selection coupled with fast, friendly service makes it a great local option. My go-​to order is a marble rye bagel, toasted, with avocado, tomato and onion, though I’ve also recently become a fan of their lox spread too.
Iced coffee is a bagel pairing must (their large comes in a cup big enough for two… and/​or if you need a jolt!) and they also have a decent selection of juices, sodas etc. Also in the drinks fridge are cream cheeses (lots of flavors) to go so you can get in and out with a big order in pretty speedy time. Dine in options are available (seats maybe 8?), but if you have the time I recommend walking down to Pan Pacific Park and enjoying your delicious breakfast under the sun surrounded by nature and soccer leagues :)
