The Bagel Broker

Like most of the city, my company orders from here each week for "Bagel Friday" and I'm still not sick of them.

Great variety, fresh, New York-style bagels. Cinnamon raisin is my favorite and the salmon cream cheese is a great substitute for proper lox (though not together).

Pros: NY style bagels

Cons: None

We have Bagel Fridays at the company and our number one choice is The Bagel Broker. They have great bagels, muffins, fruit plates and all kinds of other fun sweets. Great customer service always willing to help and make great suggestions. Jason the bagel broker guy as we call him is a great person to deal with he always goes the extra mile to keep you happy. Delivery is always on time and quick. I highly recommend this wonderful place.

Pros: Best Bagels in LA

Cons: no drawbacks

Our company has bagel and donut Friday once a month. I used to "schlep" to Western Bagel and Winchell's Donuts... but no more! I discovered the Bagel Broker. Not only do they have great tasting bagels and donuts, but they delivery promptly. The staff is friendly and accommodating too. They even made special-to-order "ribbon" bagels in support of breast cancer week. I highly recommend these folks.

the people are amazing, helpful. bagels are fresh and delicious. fruit platters are crazy good and everything is run like clockwork. sandwiches are delish and so are the muffins and coffee. beware of parking!

Pros: freshest bagels in town

Cons: parking

I work in the Entertainment field and have used the Bagel Broker for several events. I always receive rave reviews on the quality of the sandwiches and the freshness of the fruits and vegetables. I highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed.

Pros: Best sandwiches

Now I am a bagel Junkie. Of course I am one of the people that will say the best bagels are in New York... Doesn't mean you cant get a good bagel out here. I got the Garlic Bagel and it is pretty fantastic. I was not a huge fan of their everything bagel, but the others I tried made up for what the everything lacked.

Good bagels, and very friendly service

Pros: Garlic bagel

Cons: Too much cornmeal on the everything bagel

The best bagels in Southern California can be found at Bagel Broker in Los Angeles near Hollywood. We order every week for work. The bags are still hot when they get delivered.
Bagel Broker features bagels in all the traditional New York varieties: plain, poppy seed, sesame, rye, pumpernickel, onion, and garlic just to name a few. Pick your favorite flavor and you'll get chewy, not doughy, bagels with a crust that requires teeth but won't break one, great with butter or a smear of one their delicious varieties of your favorite cream cheese. The Customer Service is awesome Jason Rocks!!

I recently co-produced a weekend long film festival with hour-long lunch breaks scheduled for each day. We needed a place that could accommodate 50 lunch packages on the first day and 25 on the second. They needed to be simple yet precise and very easy to distribute to our attendees in a timely manner.

Being from out of state, I immediately consulted Citysearch and started making phone calls. I didn't need to go far once I had my first experience with Jason from The Bagel Broker.

First, let me say that Jason is an absolute dream to work with. He stayed in contact with me by phone and emails and double-checked each detail with me so I wouldn't have to worry about the accuracy of the orders. Not only were the lunch orders perfect, they were assembled in easy-to-carry boxes and labeled with each attendee?s name. We also ordered cookies and chips and they threw in bottles of mayo and mustard for free each day. The employees helped carry the boxes out to our vehicle and were so quick and efficient ? and friendly ? SO friendly!

If I wasn?t already greatly impressed by Jason, his staff and the cost-break and freebies thrown in, I was blown away by the food! The bagels were so soft and chewy and the lox and cream cheese was to die for! The cookies were wonderful and good-sized and definitely a crowd favorite. Everything was just delicious!

I want to thank Jason and The Bagel Broker for going above and beyond the call of duty and will recommend them in a heartbeat. Hire these people for your next event, you will not be sorry.

THANK YOU!!

As everyone knows, problems happen when working with large groups. We needed to get our order an hour before we had originally told them and they didn't even bat an eye. They had everything read and properly labeled, helped us load the car and made sure we were covered on everything. I have never been impressed more by the service than I was that day. In addition to the amazing customer service, the food was awesome. Not a single order was wrong and I ended up sneaking a few extra cookies because they were so good. Highest recommendation that I can give!

Pros: Customer Service, Accuracy, Food

Cons: Parking

Jason at The Bagel Broker is so helpful and thoughtful. He really goes above and beyond. Our company gets a delivery from them everyday and we never have problems. Plus, when I needed a company wide breakfast meeting catered and only had a day notice, Jason came through for me. The food was delicious (we had a variety of breakfast sandwiches, bagels,danishes), the order was perfect, and Jason even brought me a chai latte. And he was early!! It's such a pleasure to do business with The Bagel Broker.

So I've been using the Bagel Broker since I started at my new job almost 2 months ago. I order from them at least once a week if not more and they are always on time, and always delicious. They come promptly at 8:30am, every morning I need them, even when I forget to order the night before and place my order at 8 am! The bagels are delicious and their array of cream cheeses keeps me from getting sick of having bagels every week, especially the cheddar!! I highly recommend them to anyone who is craving a good bagel or anyone who works in an office that needs large amounts of delicious breakfast food on a regular basis.

So, today I had my first experience at The Bagel Broker. Greatly recommended from a fellow East Coast friend of mine here in LA, he told me "Laura, you love bagels. You're from New Jersey. You won't be disappointed." He could not have been more right.

Got a lightly toasted bialy with Lite Cream Cheese... EXTREMELY satisfied and delicious! Also, coffee was great as well. Not to mention the owner, Jason, was as friendly as can be and could not have been a more hospitable host! He even let me try the tuna salad as a sample to see what I thought... of course the tuna salad was awesome as well.

Will definitely be back for round two very soon... hopefully will become a regular.
If you like bagels and know what makes a truly great bagel- this is the place for you! Enjoy!!!

Pros: great East-Coast style bagels, friendly owner, awesome food

Cons: nada- this place rocks

New Yorkers aren't supposed to admit that any other city can make a good bagel, so this review comes after much soul-searching deliberation. The Bagel Broker has done it. I feel like I have a local deli again (far too rare outside NY). I get my sesame bagel (usually still warm from the oven) with scallion cream cheese and lox, and I'm a happy man.

My office has been using Bagel Broker for early - MEAN early - bagel deliveries. After dragging in, pre-dawn, there is nothing more heartening than a heaping platter of fresh bagels waiting for us. Every day - on time - always good. Since the first time we tried them, we've used Bagel Broker without interruption. No need to use anybody else. We've even ordered lunch from them a few times -- also great!

I recently placed an extremely large order for 600 bagels, 50 lbs. of cream cheese and lots of fresh squeezed OJ from the Bagel Broker for a company event. The whole experience was completely stress-free and the service was excellent, they really went out of their way to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. Our bagels arrived perfectly on time, still warm from the oven! Everything was fresh and delicious and the presentation was awesome. They don't skimp on anything and I tried almost every kind of bagel...from the everything bagel to the cinnamon to the blueberry and they were all so yummy!!!!! If you have a corporate event and need bagels or if you just want to grab one on your way to work, the Bagel Broker is the place to go!!!!

Have bagles delivered to your office and boost moral! The Bagle Broker delivers to my office twice a week and I look forward to those days with gleeful anticipation. The bagles are always really fresh and tastey, they toast up great! The fruit platters are yummy too!

Pros: They deliver!

Talk about the tastiest wraps and sandwiches at the finest Bagel Broker!!! The food is fresh and the service is always excellent!!! We get what I we ask for and the food is always delivered promptly. Thank you so much for always giving us the satisfaction.

I didn?t think bagels could get any better than Western Bagel?HA!! Boy was I wrong!! When I needed to order bagels for an office meeting, a dude named Koch said ?try Bagel Broker up the street?. I had no idea I?d be ordering THE best bagels in LA, it was like a shock had swept the nation! Bagel Broker?s bagels were SO good and SO fresh, they made the other guys seem like?well?a boring old western. Anytime I order bagels for the company they MUST come from Bagel Broker (no exceptions!). Bagel Broker offers FAST FRIENDLY FREE delivery to just about ANYWHERE at just about ANYTIME. They also take last minute orders (thanks again Jason, you saved me!!) So if you?re looking for a REALLY GOOD bagel (seriously), you?ve come to the right place!!

Pros: Opens early. Might spot a celeb.

Cons: The bagels are so good the line is sometimes out the door.

the bagel broker's bagels rule! we get them delivered every friday morning at work, and people are always super excited. bagel friday rules and they are always on time! all the different kinds of bagels are great, i always have plain with veggie cream cheese. i love their tuna salad too, it's SO GOOD. as someone who grew up on the east coast and misses decent bagels, the bagel broker is definitely good enough to stand up to any east coast bagel! love bagel broker!!

Pros: best bagels ever!

After many years driving by The Bagel Broker on my way to work I decided to stop buy and pick up a bagel. Oh the variety is wonderful from plain bagel to cheese with Jalepeno. My favorite is Sesame. The bagels are so yummy and the cream cheese spreads *veggie/lox/cheddar cheese* delicious. My only concern although the service is good - they service could be a little more friendly - or at least smile a little. The owners/co-owner seem to be very friendly and greets customers outstanding. I do like the fact that Bagel Brokers is open early for customers like me.

Thank you Bagel Brokers.....

Pros: morning hours/parking and BAGELS/CREAM CHEESES

Cons: service could be a bit more friendly - smile - happy

Having grown up my whole life in the NYC area, I'm used to a certain bagel standard. Plump and round, with a thin crispy outside crust, and soft doughy middle. These bagels are about halfway there. They have the crust and the middle, but they're flat and not doughy enough. The crust is too thick, and there seemed to be some sort of cornmeal on my everything bagel.

To be fair, if you're from LA you'll love these bagels, they're pretty clearly the best you can get in these parts. But when you're in new york, make sure you find your way to a good bagel place for the real deal.

Pros: Has everything a bagel place should, with a good fast working staff

Cons: Bagels not quite up to NYC standards

This is my first review but this place prompted me to sign up to write one! I had been craving a for a good bagel with smoked salmon and cream cheese since i got back from a trip to NYC. I decided to check this place out after having seen their video spot on this site and I am really happy i did. I had an everything bagel with salmon, cream cheese, tomato, cucumber, and onions. All ingredients were fresh and most importantly reminded me of NY bagels. The service was great and I will definately return. I also bought some more for home and I can say that the cinnamon raisin was awesome.

Pros: sliced nova lox sandwhich. great customer service.

Cons: its kind of far from both my house and job :-P

I saw the ad on the WeHo News and thought I'd try it on a kick - but geez, was in for a surprise!
These are easily the very best bagels made anywhere in LA - the toppings are generous like you've never seen, the bagels are soft and chewy inside and just slightly crunchy out - amazing.
I had the chicken salad, too - oh my gawd!! you gotta try this place out.

Pros: best bagels there are

Cons: they only have one shop?

Although I placed a large and detailed catering order at the last minute, the service was prompt, the delivery men friendly and helpful, and most importantly all the food was fresh, delicious and kept everyone happy during a very long day. We expected the best bagels in town, but everything, from the pastries to the baked goods and especially the fresh fruit platters were better than expected.

I can't recommend the Bagel Broker enough for your catering needs.

Pros: Helpful, friendly, prompt service, great food

Cons: none

Although I do enjoy the food at the Bagel Broker, what makes it a real gem is its catering service. Each year for a holiday gift, I send a complete breakfast to my agency and they always love it. For a very reasonable price you can send quite a feast which includes flavored coffees, bagels, lox, fruit platters, orange juice and pastries. I'm always overwhelmed at the wonderful response I get from the people at the agency and they always rave about how much they enjoy it. The manager, Jason, is always really helpful and offers great suggestions to make the presentation a class act. I couldn't recommend their catering service more.

If you are a transplanted New yorker searching for a good bagel in LA look no further. This place delivers the most crunchy, chewy and delicious bagel on the west coast.

Pros: Bagels bagels bagels

everybody already knows i think...this is the best bagel place. not a great place to eat-in or anything, but excellent bagels to go.

The BAGEL BROKER makes the Bbest bagels ever. I especially loved the "lox cream cheese" too. If you want to really taste a one of a kind bagel, this is the right place. I should know.... I'm from New York! And don't forget to try them for lunch to. They make an amazing chicken bagel sandwich that will keep you coming back over and pver again! The customer service is a class act as well. This places deserves a triple A rating.

My company uses The Bagel Broker for promotional events for potential customers and I have never been dissapointed. The presenation is excellent, delivery is always on time, the fruit is always sweet, and the bagels, pastries and cookies are fresh and tasty. People are always raving about the food at my events and I recommend The Bagel Broker everytime.

I love bagels. They are my biggest weakness. I grew up in New York so I'm pretty picky about my bagels and these are fantastic!!! Great cream cheese spreads too!

I run 1-3 events per week in the Wilshire Blvd. area, each for 100-200 people, and I use the Bagel Broker for each one. These events are to introduce our company to potential customers, so obviously the quality of presentation and the food is of the utmost importance. Everyone at the Bagel Broker is extremely helpful and focused on helping us have the best events possible. They have a great spread of breakfast and lunch choices, and are always very adaptable with their menu. Their deliveries are always right on timeand arrive with the coffee piping hot. The food is always fresh and great and, just as importantly, very affordable! Bagel Broker has even rushed an order out to us the morning of, with no advance notice. I don't know of any other caterers who can get together food and drinks for 150 people with 30 minutes notice and deliver them in time to save an event. In short, Bagel Broker is definitely the choise for Corporate, Breakfast, and Lunch catering in LA.

Pros: Catering, Responsiveness

If the answer is yes this is the place for you, I love it great bagels, great cream cheese, good lox. Load up on the carbs and Fat. ?

I love the bagels and the flavored spreads. Their service has always been reliable and they've always gone out of their way to accomodate us for all of our corporate needs. I would recommend them to anyone.

Pros: Great service, great bagels, very friendly and helpful staff.

These bagels are some of the best in LA!! I salivate just thinking about the salmon spread!! BREAKFAST IS SERVED!!!

The bagels are superb!!! I love all of the cream cheese spreads and the variety of bagels. I wouldn't give a dime to anyone else...

Pros: soft bagels

Cons: none

IM LOVE THESE"S BAGELS... doesnt get any better then this place. If you havent tried it you havent experienced real good pastries yet.
would go anywhere else and thats for sure!

The bagels are great!! I like how they are chewy, this not only exercises my muscles in my face but satisfies my stomach! The fruit is fresh, and what could be more important than that!

Fridays are more worthwhile as we anticipate the pastry and fruit delights that greet us
at our morning work day arrival.
Also delectible are the savory cream cheeses that accompany these treats.
Happy eating to anyone who dares to indulge themself.

The first time I tried the Bagels and Rolls there, I was reminded about the times in my youth that my Grandmother would bake them from scratch. I hadn't had that feeling for a while. Coming from a poor family I can honestly say that I know what basics are. To me, the selection is great, the service is wonderful, and most importantly the pasteries....... let's just say that I remember my childhood and I smile. Thanks Bagel Broker!

Pros: Selection, Service, Quality of Pasteries

Their bagels are good, nothing special, but the rest of their pastries are...well, just not great. Only go if you have no other options.

This place has the greatest tuna and spreads ever! I only go to the broker for my bagels. The atmosphere is chill and easy - no stuffy LA scene here. Highly recommended by me!

Pros: Tasty, Yummy

I don't think a bagel w/cream cheese is really worth $2 but for a once-in-a-while treat it's a great place. Speedy service and a great selection of warm bagels (they steam up the glass). Friendly service. Not a lot of parking or seating.

Pros: Fast service, Good selection, Warm & tasty treats

Cons: Limited parking, not much seating, not cheap

I used the Bagel Broker for a work-related breakfast. They went out of their way to provide for our needs, even though it involved a very limited delivery time restriction outside the usual delivery area. Friendly service, efficient delivery, and delicious food.

awesome assortment of bagels and cream cheese, and the fresh fruit is perfection- The Bagel Broker ROCKS!!!

I highly reccomend the quality of the bagels & pastries! Always serving the freshest items that make your mouth water. You will start your day off right if you visit The Bagel Broker!

Pros: Fresh

These mornings wouldn't be as bright without those Tastely and delicious Bagels and cinnamon rolls. Man I'm in love with them. Awesome assortment of fruit, Man they hit the stop.....Catering at its Best Cheers!!

Pros: Excellant Selection, Delicious Assortment , Fresh Fruit

Cons: NONE
