THB Bagels & Deli by Towson Hot Bagels

I’m here every weekend. this place is absolutely amazing. best bagels in town. I always get the bacon egg and cheese on Asiago. it’s usually crowded before 1 so I usually try and call on my
order

Best bagels in town, hands down. Also, my business got Bagel Blitzed! They delivered bagels to the whole office which was the best surprise ever!!! Can’t enough good things about this business.

Towson Hot Bagels have the best bagels in Maryland! I love the sausage, egg and cheese. The staff is very friendly and as well funny. Francesca is one of my favorite staff members and always does a great job! Weekends can get a bit crazy and packed but totally understandable and get food in a reasonable time. I am always recommending Towson Hot Bagels to anyone who loves a good morning breakfast!

How does this place not have a million reviews? This really is the go to spot. Always packed in the later morning when the hungover college kids are waking up. Their bacon, egg and cheese bagel is amazing! The cheese is always nice and melted! The only hit/​miss is the bacon. Sometimes it doesn’t taste as fresh as other days but more times than not, it’s spot on! I’ve also had the uncle Gigi before which is more like a light lunch sandwich. I don’t remember everything in the sandwich but i do remember it having cream cheese, sprouts and cucumber. If you want a satisfying breakfast joint this is DEFINITELY the spot! Very famous here in Towson! OH! Don’t forget to order the home fries!

Always great service, quick food and yummy.
They put onions in the hash browns so if you don’t like onions make sure you ask for None! They have many locations of places I frequent.
Keep up the good work!

Best bagels in town! I always get the whole wheat everything bagel with turkey sausage, egg, and cheese and it’s always amzing.

The omelet is huge and comes with a bagel AND delicious fried potatoes. The only issue is THB is totally inconsistent, with both quality and portion. Sometimes I get a good portion of fried potatoes, other times I feel like I barely have any. I’ve received a bagel that was so burnt it was impossible to chew. And other times I’ve waited 20+ minutes for a bagel sandwich that ends up being cold! I rarely visit anymore because it’s honestly not worth the wait since you really never know what you’re getting. Sometimes it can be an amazing breakfast but other times, it’s simply just a waste of time.

Not worth it. Honestly, Unilocal has been flawless for choosing places based on reviews. Everyone MISSED on this place. We ordered ‘to go’ and when we finally opened our sandwiches, one was wrong. One was burnt and like eating a leather from a shoe. We even waited 20 mins for our order.
Super disappointing on all fronts. Oh, the chips with bay crab seasoning was really good. Oh that’s right, this place didn’t make them… I bought it off the shelf.

Great bagels and sandwiches. Coffee is mediocre. If you’re going on a weekend morning, except a very long line. Great hangover food.

I had a Sophia Loren and it was great. I don’t eat deli sandwiches very often, but this hit the spot. Always pretty busy. Coffee is mediocre.

Place is good. A lot of menu options to choose from. Plenty of bagels as well. I gave it four stars because they’re inconsistent when it comes to their pricing and the people who work there can be kind of rude

This place is truly a great place to eat. Breakfast bagels, coffee, etc. Delicious and fresh; made-​to-​order! The self-​serve coffee station is in the back of the restaurant alongside a wall and it gets congested at times when lots of customers are waiting to fill their cups (like when the people in front of you are indecisive, etc). Other than that, bon appetit!

I always get the Skinny Bagle, With chopped steak and cheese., side of home fries and OJ.
This place is extremely packed durring breakfast and Lunch rushes, and there will be a line outside on weekends.
May opt out the Homefries, as they are too greasy for me.
I prefer home fries that are less soggy.
The staff is pretty nice and they are quick.
Call ahead if you can.

One of my favorite places in the area! When my husband and I were having our kitchen remodeled, we ate here sometimes twice a day. My favorite is the Sophia Loren, and my hubby used to LOVE the Burt Reynolds which has sadly been discontinued. It was a sad day in our house. Everything is always yummy and fresh, and the folks behind the counter are friendly. My only complaint is that this place is absolutely mobbed on weekend mornings (college students everywhere!), which isn’t a flaw so much as a personal gripe.

I’m a fan of THB, especially on Sunday’s. It’s extremely crowded Sunday mornings with other college students but I like that about it. Families and older folks may not feel the same.
Good food. Refillable coffee. Only problem is the wait sometimes but that’s to be expected and still they’re very fast.

There are 3 Towson hot bagel locations. The food is delicious and fast. The one located in Towson I don’t recommend. The staff is unprofessional and it is always crowded with hungover loud, obnoxious college students. The one in Timonium is much better. There Is always plenty of parking and plenty of seats. I like the egg salad but my husband always gets something different and it’s always delicious too!

My time in Towson was short but for one year this place made me feel at home every morning. Fantastic taylor ham, egg & cheese sandwich and being a Jersey girl this says a lot. Great bagels, phenomenal ice coffee! Customer service was excellent and being a regular they knew exactly what I wanted. Ice coffee every morning even in winter!!! Memo always came out to greet me! Can’t ask for anything better. Except for them to deliver some ice coffee to me in Hawaii! Sad to say good-​bye to THB but on to beach living!

Great bagels, good selection of sandwiches. Great breakfast spot before work.
Wish they would include chips w/​the sandwiches instead of a pickle.
Note: The food can sometimes take a few minutes to come out. It seems like they have a better system for letting you know your order is ready — now they use a number AND your name. Much better!

Since I hail from New York, I’ll try not to be to biased in this review. As far as any bagel I’ve had in Maryland, these are by far the best. No, these aren’t the bagels you’d find in NYC, butttt they are pretty darn close. There’s a ton of different types to chose from along with many types of cream cheese spreads. I got the everything bagel with veggie cream cheese and was impressed. Usually going outside of the NY tristate area for a bagel means you’re getting a piece of bread with a hole in the center. These guys really put effort into making a delicious bagel. The pour your own coffee bar in the back of the store is an awesome perk too. Try the chocolate coffee! I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in the Towson area.

Went in for a quick cup of coffee and bagle… Nothing special. They were out of cinnamon raisin bagles and the cashier suggested the blueberry… the bagel was suppose to be toasted w/​cream cheese but it was not. Well maybe the toaster was broken because the replacement bagel was BURNT and inedible. The coffee wasnt much better and they charge $ 1 for a refill. We probably won’t return. There are several better options in the area.

I rarely ever eat Bagels, and when i do occasionally save it for Celebrity Bagels in N. J, of course that is unrealistic for most if not all :), but i think every Bagel store should take some training on how to make bagel sandwich in the NY/​NJ area. My original plan was to get a shawarma next door, but that place wasnt opened yet at 11.40 on a sat, get the hell out of here. So i go next door ordered a basic sausage, egg, and cheese bagel. Seeing the bagels, gave me hope, but when i saw someone eating a bagel with a slab of cheese just plucked on it, i immediately knew this was a dud. Just as i thought it wasnt good, too salty, slab of cheese, egg was good tho, egg bagel not bad and coffee was fine. Reason i dont eat bagels in the DMV period.

As per the owners response
I notice the call ahead/​still wait in line subject wasn’t addressed. It’s happened all three times i have been there. Either take my order and let me check out when i wak in, or, don’t accept carry out phone orders. I’m happy to give you my CC over the phone as well.
Rueben –vs– Rachel: I never said i ordered a Turkey Rachel, i said i ordered «Whatever you guys call a Turkey Rachel» It’s very common for places to name their sandwiches, usually after actors. No customer is expected to remember the specific names that each place calls their sandwiches. That’s why when you call a place and ask them to give you whatever name they have dubbed to a Turkey Rachel, they know what you are talking about. This is not brain surgery. Any employee in any decent place will know what a rueben and a rachel is. It’s not like i am ordering Pad Thai in an Italian place. You make deli sandwiches !!!
My order was taken wrong: Shocker. To put it mildly, there is a «communication barrier» on your employees end. Which is why it took me 4 exits to explain to Brandon what i wanted. It’s also the same reason he got my order totally wrong, and then lied to me when i picked it up. Both orders were wrong. And looking at the reviews, this seems to be common. SIDENOTE: Even if my order was taken wrong, take a look at the sandwich they gave me. Disgusting bread, dried out turkey that tasted like leather, hardly any cheese. I would have never sent that out to a customer if i made that sandwich.
I was in a hurry. I was made even later having to wait in line even though my order was sitting there ready to go. If i wasn’t in such a rush, i would have checked my order to see that not ony was it totally incorrect, but i would have taken one look at that sandwich and shown eveyone in line what i just paid $ 15 for. Again, please see my 2 pics under my name
I had to put 1 star to write this. For the record, it get’s 0 stars

I know this is the original but the one in Canton is way better. Service here is very slow. Plus they got my order wrong even after I told them it was rung in wrong, they kept insisting it would come out correctly… it didn’t
update: they are now ³⁄₃ on getting my orders wrong. I don’t even order hard or unusual things
