Blazing Bagels

I was so stoked to try this bagel shop on our travels while in Seattle. After a light link ride and a long walk to get there finally arrived so stoked! I ordered a gf bagel (they only have one flavor, original) with vegan cream cheese, and a breakfast sandwich that has sausage, egg, and cheese on a gf bagel, and asked for no cheese. After ordering a few minutes later they called our name and told my husband that they were out of GF bagels for that day. So bummer, only thing I could eat and now nothing. I still did get my eggs and sausage in a little container and they ended up putting cheese on it. Luckily I was able to pull the cheese right off and it wasn’t really melted yet. Thank goodness. It overall, never got to try the bagels, sad, maybe next time.

Man! I have been let down by the reviews for many restaurants on here. The standards are low for the gf but not this low. This has to have been the worst gf bagel I’ve ever had. It’s hard. It’s dense. It’s crumbly. It has the exact texture of a 3 day old cornbread muffin that you left out on the counter to dry out. Lord I will not come back.

Very nice and accommodating when I was ordering, but unfortunately after I ordered they realized they were out of GF bagels. Shucks, I was looking forward to DF cream cheese + Lox

Wow - the best GF bagel I’ve had in years. So much better than the frozen ones I buy in grocery stores! The cafe is small, and there isn’t really a seating area (more of a takeout situation). They keep the gf bagels separate in the back and the employee I talked to was familiar with cross contamination and offered to heat mine up separately. One day later and no reaction!

Extremely knowledgeable staff, they offered not to toast mine in order to prevent cross contamination, was put in separate packaging and overall was extremely delicious!

I got the bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast bagel and it was so good! They make all their bagels on site and the gf bagel was delicious and didn’t fall apart at all
