The Bagel Project

Nice, happy busy little bagel shop...there was a little line but really didn't have to wait long at all. Lovely everything bagel with a generous schmear of cream cheese. Also, really good straightforward coffee from a self-serve dispenser. There's a tiny parking lot next to the building, but honestly I didn't use it and it's just as easy to park on the street (plenty of close places to park). It was a nice morning today: In, ordered , out. Rolled my hungry self over to enjoy my bagel and hot coffee at nearby Liberty Park. :-)

Raised and born in Vermont and having spent a lot of time in New York City I know a good bagel. The bagel project delivers over and over again. I’ve literally never left a review on Google and this is the place that deserves it. Everything here starts with the bagel, which is perfectly done, but they do not stop there. The toppings, sandwiches and specialty items are not to be taken lightly. Can’t wait to continue going here as often as possible.

Really cute place, but I absolutely recommend ordering ahead for pickup. It's a small location, and the line can be quite long inside. Although it is absolutely worth the wait, ordering ahead for pickup guarantees you can get what you want. This is important information since they close once they are sold out. I'll absolutely be returning!

The flavors at the bagel project are five star caliber! The only thing detracting from this spot is it's location. I am a big Bialy fan and have yet to find a spot in Utah that does it right, except for the bagel project. The staff are nice and great, but this business is clearly a small/local business so they never have more than 2 employees on site (at least every time I've eaten here) so as a result if there's a line you could be waiting a little bit, which usually wouldn't be a big deal but the bagel project doesn't have any seating inside. I did however see they added 4, 2 seater tables outside which is great and new since the last time I visited. Also parking is rough here so you may not luck out with a parking spot and will need to park a block away. Overall the bagels are perfect, traditional east coast bagels. I got the egg bacon cheese sandwich and added "the works" (pesto, tomatoes, arugula, and red onions). This pretty much tastes identical to a bialy from New York! If you are a foodie or just a bagel junkie you have to give this place a try. Just a heads up, they bake bagels fresh every morning only! They close early whenever they sell out (which happens often) so I recommend coming as close to opening especially if you are trying to get this on a weekend.
