There’s also Noahs NY Bagels chain, they are comparable to Goldsteins though, nothing to write home to NY about for me, and the Corner Bakery Cafe chain serves bagels, but they give you this tiny container of cream cheese,...

I was back in San Francisco recently and rekindled an old love affair with the fresh chewy goodness that is Noah's Bagels. Alas, I am now back in Phoenix and I haven’t found anything even close to them here in the desert....

From a post on LAEats on Usenet, someone brought up the inevitable local bagels suck as compared to NY. As someone who’s aunt and uncle had a Brooklyn bagel store, and wishes Noah's went out of business on Day 1, where do...

I had a breakfast there the other day.(sesame bagel)..the bagels are boiled not steamed...which should be a good thing,..but the result..was one of the worst bagels I have ever tasted anywhere. It actually made me mourn the loss...

Bob, Have you tried Noah's bagels? It’s located next to Starbucks, on Beach Blvd, between Edinger and Heil. It’s in the “Target center”. I like their bagels, especially the sun-dried tomato variety. Good...

I love bagels and I eat it almost everyday for breakfast... but now my life in NY is coming to an end as I am forced to move out west and I will be stuck with the sara lee bagels and noah's bagels of California which really...

I’m looking for a really high quality (New York) bagel. Noah's would be the polar opposite of my ideal bagel. Where in LA can these be found? Thanks!

Is there anyplace in the Benicia/Vallejo/Fairfield area to get good bagels? I hate driving to the Pinole or Walnut Creek Noah's – please help me find something better and closer! Thanks

If you go to the Western Bagel Factory on Sepulveda blvd, and get them fresh, they can be darn good! I like Noah's, too. I have yet to find any non-chain place worth it.

They’re not bad. Better than Noah's, not as good as Brooklyn Bagels.

IMO, Einsteins bagels are NOT good: just Noah's under another name—poofy bread-like things. The places I know and like are both far from the strip: Sterling Bagels on Lake Mead and Rampart, and Bagel Cafe on Buffalo and...

, Burlingame. The remark about Noah's bagels is amusing given that Noah Alper who founded the chain is a huge donor to Jewish causes.

good chocolate chocolate chip bagel. 3. Noah's (various) has a very good banana/walnut bagel. A great bagel is one that you want to eat plain and has just come out of the oven.

? Noah's (who’s bagels aren’t great), used to have a great whitefish salad on a bagel sandwich, but they stopped carrying it last year. Thanks!

The best in the area is Manhattan Bagel 2216 Wilshire Blvd,  Santa Monica, CA 90403 310 828-3228   Or The Bagel Factory next to Sav-Ons at Sepuveda and National. Stay away from Noahs or Western Bagels. Also...
