We went for breakfast on a Sunday morning. There was a line, but it didnt take long to place our order and get seated. However, there was a bit if a wait to get our food. I do suggest going early, because it seems that once they run out of a particular type of bagel, thats it for the day. The fresh bagels and homemade cream cheese are really good. Id been looking for this type of flavor and texture for a long time. I found it. Just so you know, it is a small place. So, if youre still avoiding crowds due to covid, you may want to wait to go. There wasnt much room inside for social distancing.
Rachel is one of the best at her job and the food is always on point.
My husband and I would to get a sausage egg and cheese on an everything bagel (with some plain cream cheese on the side to ‘dip’ it in) multiple times a week. It’s so good! We have since moved away from Jax and dream about returning just to get us some Bagel Love!
Best bagels in Jacksonville. Coffee is good too.
Mine was a unexpected visit to this business my car was overheating so I had to stop at the first available location. I have drove past this restaurant many times and today I pulled in the parking lot as I was waiting for a tow truck to arrive I went inside and got a bagel sandwich and to my pleasant surprise it was one of the best sandwiches Ive had in a very long time it matched the 25 year ago tom n Bettys from the old roosevelt store I will definitely be back to visit again in the near future
This place is incredible. Top tier, great prices, fast service.
Our go to for Sunday bagels! Always delicious and friendly. Love bagel love!
Love the vegan friendly options. Also loved how friendly and informative the staff was on the vegan options
What great spot! The bagels are thick and flavorful. The make their own chicken, tuna, and egg salads which are amazing. The cream cheese spreads are chock full of delicious morsels and flavors. (they also happen to have those apple juice bottles that sound like you are biting an apple) Staff was friendly and personable; I could not have had a better first visit and I look forward to the next.
Best Orange juice in town 🙌Great customer service
Just happen to notice this place while doing somethings in the Riverside area. Nice little place. Very delicious bagel sandwich and a very nice young lady behind the counter.
Super fresh food employees are very welcoming. One of the best breakfast spots in jax!
I love this place. It has been one of our favorite go to places for breakfast! Fresh food, fresh bagels. In fact, some days if you come late, youll miss out on a wider selection as a good rush will clear out quite a few items. I also enjoy the staff, very friendly and personable.
Great staff, great prices. Was surprised they serve a full breakfast. Way cool, drove past this place for years, litterly. Glad I had time to stop. Ty staff.
Excellent bagels! Thick, soft, flavorful. I got some sesame, cran orange, chocolate chip, everything and plain. The two gals and the guy working the desk were amazing. I had a larger order and most of the bagels needed to be made on the spot. It did not take long to make and the bagels were warm and smelled so good, it was hard to drive all the way to st johns bluff without eating one! Yes, I came all the way from St. Johns Bluff, on a prayer and hope because bagels r us near us is closed on mondays. It was worth the drive! And I would do it again. Highly recommend..
Very good. Enjoyed the multigrain bagel worth egg and cheese. Simple but very good.
The food is always great, and the staff is very friendly. Bagels sell out very quickly though. I often work until 9:30am and by the time I get everyone ready and out the door its almost not worth going, because most bagel flavors are sold out. If youre a plain bagel person (like my spouse) youre safe. Otherwise, go early, its worth it.
The live up to their name. Gotta get their early if you want of of the specialty bagels.
Amazing food and amazing people!!!
Nice breakfast and lunch spot... They have a good variety of bagels and make great sandwiches. There is seating inside at tables and a counter.During my visit one of the employee (may have been the owner) was very interactive with all the customers and thats really the quality you get from a smaller local businesses. That really made this spot a 5 for me.
Love this local spot to build my own bagel! Great staff and environment.
Fantastic bagels. Probably the best in Jax. I drive 35 minutes just to come here.
Long wait times, waited an hour 1 bagel. Good bagels, just not worth an hour wait. Will go else where next time.
Wow on the bagels! Almost New York style which is saying a lot. I havent found anything else even close around JAX.
Just hohum. It’s a bagel.
They have flagels thats a plus almost like a bagel just a little thinner and flat... Nice and clean ..Lox was on point. Great atmosphere.
Fresh delicious bagel with bacon egg and cheese.
I went at 10:00am. They were out of almost every flavor of bagel. Had a choice of 4. Went out of my way to give them a try. Had a Everything bagel, it was ok.
Bagel Love Does A Body Good!!! CANT say enough good about their food, the people and cleanest little place ever. This is a hidden GEM! HEALTHY FOOD. Worth the long drive. Suggest you call in your orders early to get your special bagel as they go really fast.
Such an amazing establishment and staff!!! I have been going here for a long time and nothing has changed from them being the BEST! Delicious food, spread, and drinks!
I just found a new favorite bagel shop. They gave me a free bagel with cream cheese because they made it by mistake. If that’s not love I don’t know what love is.
Leather bagels and since my place on Atlantic and University were not a business several years ago this is now my go-to place
Always friendly, always fresh. The key is to wake up EARLY to make sure you get the pick of the bagels here. The hours say open til 2pm, but the reality is the bagels dont last that long - because they are that good. My favorite is an everything with cream cheese, bacon, egg and pepper jack cheese. Oh, yeah, try the fresh squeezed orange juice, too! Its fresh squeezed!
Best bagels in town.
Good food, great service and yummy coffee!
Courteous, excellent food, prompt service. Best bagels Ive ever tasted. Get the bagel love sub on garlic bread
Great menu great service. I have never been disappointed.
Just passing through lol
Love this bagel place. Some of the best bagels Ive had in Fl
My experiences here have been nothing but great. The staff are super nice and the owner has such an upbeat friendly attitude. My favorite bagel sandwich is The Cali. Always on point and they never mess it up. Wait time is great too. One of the very few bagel shops open at 6am -and in my personal opinion- the best bagel shop Ive been to this far. I accidentally locked my keys in my car, it cost me $76. The owner was so empathetic, he gave me my bagel sandwich for free! Who does that??? Check them out and support them if you feel like I do (:
Service and people were amazing. Great atmosphere
First time here. I ordered their Everything and Cinnamon Raisin. Both were excellent. Probably one of the best Everything bagels I have had. Both were nice and soft on the inside and slightly crisp on the outside. To bad they were out of jalapeno spread as I was looking forward to that for the Everything. I had the honey vanilla on the Cinnamon and it was a perfect combination. If you like great bagels, this is the place.
Extremely friendly staff and delicious bagels. I had the toasted plain bagel with vegetable cream cheese and it was great.
I cant hype this place up enough. Well priced, friendly staff and great bagels. Owner is genuine and you can tell he treats his staff well. Honestly in a time of expensive brunches and elaborate breakfast/lunches all you really need in life is Bagel Love.
One of my favorite places in Jax. Go here pretty much every week for a quick breakfast before work. Rachel is super sweet and Bobby always remembers my order and always says hi when I walk in. One week it wasnt rung in correctly and he came over and asked me if I wanted my usual and he was right! Their bagels are super yummy, too and I lived in NYC so I know a good bagel! Ive never had their lunch, but Im sure its just as good.
Excellent bagels. We travel all over the country in our RV. We are always in search of authentic, water bagels. This place has great bagels, despite being thicker than we are used to. Perfect texture.
Greatest bagels in town! 🥯 Always fresh and super friendly!
Thanks for the butter, great place to get bagels.
A nice little place, friendly service. The bagels are very good, the bagel sandwiches are even better. All the basics are covered, but if you are looking for something different than the ordinary, you will find it.
My first time at this restaurant. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I got the Cali on a everything bagel with scallion cream cheese.It was very delicious and tasty. I was a bit disappointed in the portion size but the price was reflected so it was ok.
Great bagels! Theyre one of the only ones that have just garlic. The lox sando is fantastic. Theyre very thoughtful by putting the capers into the cream cheese so they dont roll off. They put coffee ice cubes in their iced coffee too!! Their iced tea is ok...if they ever want to upgrade...I know a guy ;)
Love this place
First visit, sesame bagel with scallion cream cheese. Reminds me of bagels back home in NY/NJ. The coffee was hot, fresh, and delicious. Service was quick. Nicely decorated, but not pretentious or uppity. Ill be back for more.
Legit bagels as opposed to bread baked in a circle. Great ingredients, friendly staff, good stuff
Nice place to eat at, and the people that works are so nice.
A small place but my goodness is it fantastic. Great bagels and awesome cream cheese to go with it. The earlier you can get there, the better chance you have at the selection of different flavors of bagels and cream cheese but don’t worry, anything you get will be good. They are very generous with the cream cheese too and it’s homemade. Also, if you like coffee, spend a few extra bucks on a vanilla frozen blended iced coffee, best I’ve ever had in my life, nothing has come close. Help to support a local Jacksonville business, great people that run it. You won’t regret going here!
I always love the food and the staff at Bagel Love.
One of the best bagels that I have had in a long time. The Jack cheese and sausage on an egg bagel hit the spot.
Great bagels, fast friendly place.
Great options, phenomenal bagel, and good service. The only negative is limited parking
My FAVORITE bagels in town!!!
Fantastic place to grab a bagel! The staff, especially Brian and Rachel are friendly and cordial and very helpful with recommendations of what to try. I try to eat here at least once a week. It has a nice friendly atmosphere and is a great place for a family breakfast or for a quick grab and go.
Friendly service, yummy food! Family owned, they cook their own, Turkey, Roast beef and Chicken. I had the club with Turkey and it was delicious! They also fresh squeeze their orange juice. Definitely going back!
The best bagels in the county, hands down!
Lots of bagel and cream chees options daily. (Tried the Cajun-dill cream cheese on an everything bagel and it was delicious.) There are plenty of other menu items as well. Staff was friendly and I received my food in a timely manner. I will definitely go again.
Stopped in to grab a quick breakfast with my husband while visiting the area. The only disappointment is that there isnt a Bagel Love in our state! Our bagel sandwiches were amazing. The cheese was super melty and the cream cheese was so fresh. The assortment of bagels and cream cheese to chose from was a nice touch. We will certainly be back when we make our way to Jacksonville soon.
As a New Yorker I pride myself on knowing what a good bagel and breakfast sandwich should taste like. Although it was satisfying, there is still much work to be done. Keep trying, guys. Its good for your locals, but dont expect raves from your Northern visitors.
I come here almost every morning for breakfast. I also get it for any artist I happen to be recording in the morning or afternoon. All of them have loved it. Most importantly the cook knows his craft. Theres a reason they win best bagel.
Finally tried this place, and it was awesome. Bagels are really good and staff is super friendly. Highly recommend the Cinnamon Crunch bagel with the honey vanilla cream cheese for a sweet tooth craving. Tasty! Also liked the everything bagel as a bacon egg and cheese sandwich.
How do you love bagels when there are no bagels to love? Great food when it’s available, but they frequently run out of bagels. Just drove there on a Sunday morning at 10am only for them to literally be out of every flavor of bagel. I’m not sure if they do demand planning or just wing it daily, but I would probably overbake and risk some spoilage as opposed to having disappointed customers. Again - when the food is there, it’s tremendous.
Too many capers on the nova lux.
Literally took an hour for bagels.
I try to stop by here about once a week! They have some of the best bagels in Jacksonville, all made fresh. The cream cheese selection is also made fresh, and they almost always have a unique seasonal cream cheese available (unless its sold out). The seasonal can be anything from pumpkin to pesto cream cheese. Im usually a bagel and cream cheese type of person, but if they have their pesto or siracha cream cheese available, Ill go for one of their bagel sandwiches. Cant go wrong here!
I wanted to like this place. Its only 2 blocks from my house & the staff is really nice. However, my bagel with egg salad was $9. I thought it was a mistake, but apparently not. Also, my Americano was mediocre at best.
The bagels here are amazing! Not the cheapest breakfast youll find, but you will leave happy as ever. The OJ is top notch too!
Super friendly staff and great bagels. This is a good place to take the kids especially because the staff dotes on children and treats my son like a good friend. A neighborhood treasure!
I love me some Bagel Love! I promote it to everyone! They roast their own roast beef, bake their own turkey. Everything is fresh, like - farmers market fresh. IDK if you can even eat a Panera bagel after you try this place. Just try it
REALLY TASTY bagels, super service, fresh OJ & all of it adds up to a delicious meal at a landmark small-business of Jax area. A favorite of locals and a must have experience for anyone new visiting the area. Extra bonus - they open at 6 AM!
Amazing variety. Everything you could possibly want from a breakfast/lunch store. Great staff. Overall phenomenal place.
Great chewy bagels. Friendly staff and good coffee.
Found this gem and it is by far the best thing that I found in Jacksonville. Love it. I would highly recommend a cinnamon crunch bagel with honey vanilla cream cheese (dont knock it til you try it) lol.This place is a must!
Excellent fresh bagels. Frequently sold out of most flavors. Go early or go plain. Large cream cheese portions.
Casual friendly place. I actually dont care for the bagels, (having lived in NY, I cant for the life of me find a good bagel in Jax), but the fresh squeezed OJ is fantastic, and the nova lox was good. The serve-yourself coffee was weak/watery (I would have ordered espresso, but the machine was down). The mismatched furniture is cute :)
Awesome little bagel joint! The staff is wonderful and the food is great! We go every week. Try a cinnamon crunch with half Nutella and half cream cheese
As someone who used to live in New York I love this place. They make fresh bagels every day and once they run out they close. I highly reccomend the jalapeno bagel with bacon egg and jalapeno cream cheese. The wait time for the fresh cooked food can be up to 15 mins but the prices are affordable and the staff is friendly.
I love this place. Good food at reasonable prices. Always clean. Nice restrooms!
Service was great, food was great and prices were reasonable. Great place to go if your in a hurry or just want to sit and relax.
Great, fresh food. Orange juice is squeezed right in front of you. Friendly staff. Highly recommend!
So so good
Nice clean friendly and fast
Best bagels in Jax. Super service
Good food but a bit pricey.
Great bagels and decent prices!
