I am neither a reviewer nor a religious man but in this case I feel compelled to preach the gospel of the Colorado Bagel Company.
The food: I come from a long of New Yorkers who are rather militaristic about their bagels. I have known these people to scorn bagels from the East to the West Coast. They decry what they see as the butchering of a good bagel. This was not the case at Colorado Bagel Company. Two years ago nearly to the month, my uncle, the Commandant of the anti-bagel adulteration league smiled when he tried a Colorado Bagel Company bagel. I don’t know what more to say, I have not seen this man expressing emotion, for the majority of my life. This is food made with love and care, you can taste it.
The Place: As Anthony Bourdain one said “Food may not be the answer to World peace but it’s a start” The bagel company attracts people from all over. It is a place to come and enjoy the universally good feeling of having a really excellent bagel in the morning. Because of this you will occasionally encounter some longer wait times. The whole crew there is efficient and clearly works hard to get orders out the door in a timely manner. I am confident in saying this is one of the few places in the valley that is simply worth the wait on the rare occasion there is one.
Conclusion: Go here. Eat the...

Read moreBagels- average Service- terrible Owner- very cheeky Bagel toppings- microwaved eggs and meats Price- overpriced
Watched the owner refuse a customer his free bagel with a full punch card. Customer was nice and didn’t want to make a big deal about it. Owner said “you’re gonna get one anyway”. But why not then? That’s how a loyalty program works. Staff is mostly miserable and could care less. One girl was nice though! I’ve been here a couple times and keep telling myself not to go back but want to give them another chance. Gotta be the wealthiest bagel maker in the country. Two bagels, two...
