Good bagels. Not my favorite bagels, but for the Orlando bagel scene it is the closest thing we have to great. Good selection of bagel-wiches.

I thought they just had bagels, but I got a Mediterranean wrap that the most delicious food I've had in a long time! I couldn't even finish it all, got a to-go box, and ended up eating the rest on the way home...it was that good! The place was busy, but ran really smooth. Service was excellent, friendly and fast. Will definitely go back to try other stuff!

I like to consider myself the Carb Queen, so it is fitting that I would love Bagel King. I have been going to the smaller Winter Park location for years, but you can't go wrong hitting up their bigger Casselberry shop either for a sit-down meal. This location has a couple tables inside and out, but I usually just prefer to take it to go. I like this location, since it is closer to home, and not usually too busy. However, if you go too late, you are out of luck on the bagel selection. I prefer my Andy sandwich (2 eggs which is really like a dozen eggs, cheese, and your choice of meat- I usually go with bacon, which seems like a whole pig) on an Everything bagel, but sometimes I have to settle for a Sesame. Which really isn't the worst thing in the world, as all of their bagels are so delish and fresh. They are seasoned on both sides, so you if you decide to split one with somebody there is no fighting over who gets the seasoned side. For lunch, a huge heaping scoop of their egg salad or chicken salad goes nicely with a bagel. I sometimes grab a tub to go, along with some extra bagels for lunch for the week. If you slice the bagels before freezing, it makes things a lot easier- I learned this the hard way!

Generous sized bagels in a large variety of flavors that extends to the cream cheese selections. They are generous with the shmear. Your favorite flavors will meet your expectations. I know it met mine. Have had it picked up to go after a long night of partying or before an active day. Pretty busy in the mornings. Good price for the amount and size you get. Would go here versus panera for the price and flavor.

Stunned to find a bagel this damn good in Florida. Food was excellent and very reasonable. For my SO and I, 2 full breakfasts with coffee and a side of bacon, just over $20. Can't recommend it highly enough. Go!

This place is small, but cozy. They have a tv to watch. Four tables inside, each 2 seaters. There really isn't space to put tables together but you might be able to pull a third seat over. Outside there are a couple of 4 seaters. I've only had the nova bagel at both locations. It's shaved salmon with a bit of saltiness. This one is fully loaded with toppings and by the end I was sufficiently full. I'm not sure why one reviewer complained about the coffee price. It's $1.85 for a small and $1.99 for large. Plus it's bottomless cup and very good. Other breakfast places I've been to can charge at least $2.50 and sometimes for a crappy watery tasting brew. You also get a choice of 4 brews you help yourself to. I like to mix the regular and hazelnut together. Living in Baldwin Park, it was an easy bike ride for my wife and I here, and this morning was nice and cool for that, plus it was cozy inside the place. We were the only ones sitting though, but there was an endless number of people ordering takeout, and quirky customers to provide some entertainment.

You will not get a bagel like Bagel King Bagels anywhere in Orlando (except Stardust Coffee because that is where they order from). Even if you go for a bagel, you must try the knish for take out. It is to die for.
Stumbled across this location on a recent trip up to let my canine Fred go burn off some pent up energy at the dog park down the road. I am pretty sure this is an extension of the larger(Bagel King) location up the road a few miles. This was a lovely find and just what my stomach was yearning for on a crisp Decembers morning. I can only speak for the bagel and the knish. The bagel hit my tickle spot... Chewy, baked off properly, spattered with sesame seeds and stuffed with cream cheese... Yeah Man! The knish was equally as good as the bagel, I grabbed a couple to take home and snack on later in the day. After 20 minutes in the toaster oven to crisp them up and a dab or two of good mustard, the knish stood no chance.. I devoured it in one fell swoop! Fred and I will most definitely be back and probably more often now that I found this more convent location to get my bagel and knish fix..

It's a hidden gem I drove by for months before, one morning, noticing that I had made excellent time and yes, a bagel DID sound good before work. Of course the bagels are good and the toppings are luscious - the thing to write home about is the coffee! The brewed coffee you serve yourself out of those pump top thermos vats. I can't believe how good it is. Usually that kind of coffee is bitter or weak. Well done Bagel King! The people at the counter have always been very kind and efficient if not all that speedy. They like to say hello and ask about your day and that kind of thing - you know MANNERS! If you have a few extra minutes one day or need bagels for a work brunch meeting I cannot recommend this spot any more highly!

Bagels really are king at this neighborhood shoppe. Admire the friendly, efficient servers who often arrive to work at 4am or 6am. Wide variety of bagels, as well as specialty ones...love the sunflower seed, onion, or everything bagels with fresh chive cream cheese. You can taste the difference in these bagels versus the big chain or grocery store offerings. I've visited this mini-chain in Casselberry, and at the Scrub Jay Conservation Center near Deltona. Located in odd places, but all serving high quality bagels and coffee. Grateful they are in my neighborhood. They also have a whole case of dessert bars, brownies and cookies as well. Oh, and there are all kinds of sandwiches too. Unfortunately, these are all super delicious too. If you are going to go carb'in...go to the king...the Bagel King.

I've driven by this place a hundred times and never stopped. Today I had a pet sit near this location so I thought I'd try it. It is in a small space, but that was okay because it wasn't too crowded. I ordered a bacon, egg & cheese on an Asiago cheese bagel. The staff was very friendly, the food was prepared quickly and the cost was reasonable. So, why the 3 star rating? I'm not sure if it was my taste buds or what I ordered, but the whole thing had no flavor. McDonald's BEC bagel has more flavor (probably from all the grease - LOL). I am going to go back again and order a different bagel in hopes that I was either having an off day or maybe that particular bagel is bland.

Only two people working on a busy Saturday morning- not a good sign. I ordered a breakfast sandwich to go and while I was waiting, something was definitely burning behind the counter. I got home, opened my to go bag, and found that I was the lucky winner of the charred bagel. Will not be going back.

My girlfriend has always talked about how her and her family have been going to the same breakfast place every Sunday for years now. Well, when we were back visiting in Orlando a few weeks back, I was honored to be invited to Sunday breakfast at Bagel King. This place was packed! Reminded me of a traditional New York deli, which I think was the point. I was told that I had to get a bagel. The bagels were delicious. They tasted extremely fresh. Almost as good as a fresh H&H bagel. We also got some kind of breakfast plate, it included eggs and breakfast potato's. Can't go wrong there. Everything was extremely fresh and tasty. Oh, and I almost forgot about the coffee. They have about eight different brews, that are all self-serve. Hopefully I will be invited back as an honorary Sunday morning bagel king guest again.

The best bagels in Orlando by far and the knishes are wonderful. This is a satellite store where they bring things in every morning from their main bakery. The staff is always friendly and the food is fresh and yummy.Not much seating however and it can get crowded in the mornings. I am a big fan of the nova salmon -if you get the "fish fantasy" there is enough to share (though you may not want to). If you get a sandwich, skip the package chips and opt for the homemade bagel chips or mini knish for your side.

I am not sure how long this Bagel King has been here, but I noticed it by chance while stuck in some crazy traffic on Lakemont. I vowed to try it and compare it to its big brother in nearby Casselberry. Today I finally did. This locale is much tinier (about the size of a small Subways), and should be called Bagel Jr according to my hubs. However, it does have a few two person tables inside and two 4 seat tables outside in front of the restaurant and barbershop next door. They had all of the bagel and spread choices, and most of the cooked breakfast and sandwich items that the larger Bagel King in Casselberry has. However, They did not have any of the pastries, save a few black and white cookies and some muffins and knishes. I was really looking forward to a cherry and cheese danish. Overall, it is a nice location, much closer for the Azalea Park and Baldwin Park crowd, and if you want to avoid the long wait and lines that the Casselberry location has this is the place for you. **I knocked a star for lack of pastry selection, and the fact that out of the four different coffees on display all of them ran out of coffee as you would start to dispense it (and we were there quite early in the AM).

The very best bagels in Orlando, guaranteed! I usually get an everything bagel, toasted, lite plain cream cheese, and tomato. My mouth is watering right now as I write this review! This location is convenient and is typically less crowded than the Howell Branch / 436 location. The bagels are always baked fresh everyday. I would love to see another location like this in College Park.

A decent bagel like one you could find at any major chain; nothing exceptional. Coffee was on par with most gas stations. Eggs had no flavor and were, it would appear, microwave scrambled. Potatoes were seasoned with enough MSG to kill a small animal. Cheap. I'll give it that. I might return if a soft spot for locally owned establishments strikes me again, but only for a bagel to go.

Robin Haley B.
I stopped by this location after a good experience at the Casselberry store once before. I got a bacon, egg and cheese on a garlic bagel. Yuck! The bacon appeared as similar quality to that of dog food or beef jerky. I simply refused to put it anywhere near my mouth. I removed it and continued eating, unsatisfied. I politely explained the situation to the man behind the counter and he offered to make me a new bagel. I asked for the same thing but with sausage. The sausage was gray and reminded me of a Krystal burger patty. Gross. I had one bite and gave up. I'm afraid I wouldn't return to this location.

Today was my 2nd visit to bagel king and it won't be my last. They have huge portion sizes and really good bagels. No frills or hipsters here, just really good bagels and friendly staff. It's a great neighborhood spot and if you live in the area it's worth a visit.

In my craving for a saturday morning bagel sandwich, I decided to give the lakemont bagel king location a try. This place is small. Be prepared to stand outside if more than 2 people are attempting to order. There are 4-5 small tables inside, but otherwise this is a takeaway location. Service was quick/friendly, however, several "regulars" were allowed to shout their orders from behind me and grab their food while I stood waiting to order. The food itself was just okay. Possibly from the microwaved eggs, I found my sandwich leaving something to be desired in flavor. Overall, I would only recommend this place if you need a quick bagel or do not feel like making the drive to the Casselberry location.

Cassie G.
I've been to a few Bagel King locations around town, but this was my first and it remains the best. The last time I went it was just before they closed and they were running low on bagel options, so get there early if you can. The coffee is also good.

Nick P.
Best bagel in Orlando. The bagels are incredibly fresh and the service is amazingly friendly. We came a little later in the morning close to noon, and because it was our first visit, they very generously gave us a few extra bagels to take home. We live about 20 minutes away and it was still well worth the drive. Definitely will be coming back!

Though I grew up in Daytona and grew used to the only kinds of bagels available in that town - the spongy, white, Wonder-Bread-with-a-hole-in-it type of bagels that are available from the grocer's freezer section or Dunkin Donuts - I did spend 8 years in NJ/NY, and in that time, grew very spoilt by the amazingly delicious, traditional bagels that were readily available on every street corner in that area. Since moving back to FL, Winter Park to be exact, I had yet to find a bagel comparable to the kinds that one grows used to in NY. A really nice rich dough flavour, a lovely, crusty outside, and a not-too-dense/not-too-fluffy, perfectly chewy interior. This is exactly what I found at Bagel King. I daresay that they are almost even better! I always order the same thing: a lightly toasted everything bagel with a "schmear" of the chunky nova spread. It is always, consistently delicious; the seed/seasoning mixture on the bagel is perfectly balanced (not too much caraway, if it is there at all), the bagel is warmed up enough so that the cream cheese with its generous chunks of smoked, salted salmon begins to soften slightly, and nothing is ever burnt or blistered or too crisp. I usually skip their coffee because I feel it is a little pricey for the quality (sure I will pay $5 for a bagel, but a $2+ coffee, no way! Ha.) We usually go on a Sunday, so the place is always packed and bustling, but there's usually not a very long wait for a table for two. Five minutes at most. Service is prompt and friendly. Clientele is sometimes...strange. But everyone loves great bagels...even kooky characters...so you have to figure sometimes you are just going to run into the occasional oddball there. My problem is that I am somehow a weirdo-magnet and they always zero in on me, commence to plop down next to me and tell me their life's story. Sorry pal, I just want to stuff a magnificent bagel down my throat - I have neither the time, inclination, nor mouth-space to converse with you.

Delightful. Grabbed a bag of goodies after a stroll around the dog park with my four legged companion and what a very pleasant surprise.. Limited on what to choose from as we stumbled across this hidden gem around 10.45am.. Almost everything had been sold but we managed to get a cream cheese filled sesame seed bagel which was everything I had hoped it would be and a knish.. My first ever knish so I had nothing to compare it with but OMG I can now with confidence say I'm a knish fan!! Who would have thought... potato in pastry YUM!! I will most certainly return for more... Only reason for my four star rating is because I didn't get in there earlier to see the full offerings.. But that's my fault just means I have to return so I can upgrade them to five stars.. I can see that in my future!!

Bagels are great, however, I am continually given out of date cream cheese. Also chicken salad containers are only filled up 1/2 way and last one I got was already out of date. Manager gets bad attitude when this is brought to her attention. Needs to be more customer oriented.

Good and fresh bagels. They have many flavored cream cheeses to choose from. I haven't found one yet that I didn't like. I particularly like the sesame seed or the everything bagels. They taste great toasted. Staff is friendly. If you eat in, they always have a daily copy of the Orlando Sentinel to read.

It is always, consistently delicious; the seed/seasoning mixture on the bagel is perfectly balanced (not too much caraway, if it is there at all), the bagel is warmed up enough so that the cream cheese with its generous chunks of smoked, salted salmon begins to soften slightly, and nothing is ever burnt or blistered or too crisp. I usually skip their coffee because I feel it is a little pricey for the quality (sure I will pay $5 for a bagel, but a $2+ coffee, no way! Ha.) We usually go on a Sunday, so the place is always packed and bustling, but there's usually not a very long wait for a table for two. Five minutes at most. Service is prompt and friendly. Clientele is sometimes...strange. But everyone loves great bagels...even kooky characters...so you have to figure sometimes you are just going to run into the occasional oddball there. My problem is that I am somehow a weirdo-magnet and they always zero in on me, commence to plop down next to me and tell me their life's story. Sorry pal, I just want to stuff a magnificent bagel down my throat - I have neither the time, inclination, nor mouth-space to converse with you.

Delightful. Grabbed a bag of goodies after a stroll around the dog park with my four legged companion and what a very pleasant surprise.. Limited on what to choose from as we stumbled across this hidden gem around 10.45am.. Almost everything had been sold but we managed to get a cream cheese filled sesame seed bagel which was everything I had hoped it would be and a knish.. My first ever knish so I had nothing to compare it with but OMG I can now with confidence say I'm a knish fan!! Who would have thought... potato in pastry YUM!! I will most certainly return for more... Only reason for my four star rating is because I didn't get in there earlier to see the full offerings.. But that's my fault just means I have to return so I can upgrade them to five stars.. I can see that in my future!!

Bagels are great, however, I am continually given out of date cream cheese. Also chicken salad containers are only filled up 1/2 way and last one I got was already out of date. Manager gets bad attitude when this is brought to her attention. Needs to be more customer oriented.

Good and fresh bagels. They have many flavored cream cheeses to choose from. I haven't found one yet that I didn't like. I particularly like the sesame seed or the everything bagels. They taste great toasted. Staff is friendly. If you eat in, they always have a daily copy of the Orlando Sentinel to read.
