Firefly Coffee House

I don't think I've had a better bagel anywhere. Perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside.

If you haven't tried firefly's bagels you are missing out. I recommend getting there early so the bagels will be fresh and they won't be sold out of their more popular ones.

The bagels and drinks are great, but the pastries not so much. The staff are friendly and it’s fun listening to their conversations with customers and other employees, but they distract each other due to this and usually mess up my order (missing ingredients, wrong spread, or sometimes making a different bagel entirely). Overall the food is very good, but the service itself could be improved.

The food is great, and the staff were awesome

Excellent and reasonably priced coffee, fresh HOMEMADE bagels, and a comfortable and friendly environment.

Without a doubt, the best bagel I've *ever* had. They are made using fresh ingredients and the selection varies daily (e.g., jalapeno and cheese, tomato basil, etc).

My Advice: go to Firefly Coffee House any morning around 9am and get a fresh homemade bagel. Your high expectations will be exceeded.

It is a delight to experience a Bagel that exceeds all expectations and any customer that visits Firefly will know this delight.

I've tried some of the breakfast meals and I always get a bagel. The food and service are like walking into a B&B for breakfast and getting top-notch cooking with serious love invested into the preparation.

A great place to take your kids on a Saturday morning; a wonderful spot to enjoy a paper, a warm drink, and a bagel; an escape from the craziness of Pacific Street.

I'm moving out of Santa Cruz in a month and I often wonder what I will miss and where I will visit when I'm back in town. Firefly Coffee House will see me every time I return. Thanks to the staff for your hospitality and the delicious food.

Great bagels, good selection of coffee, teas, cold drinks & sweets, staff is courteous, quick to respond & knowledgable about items available - relaxing outside area to enjoy whatever you purchase

We tried the crème brûlée latte and the Works burrito and it was so delicious. We came back twice during our trip.

Really great bagels. Absolutely loved their tango and cash with spicy roasted garlic bagel and jalapeño cream cheese. Nice coffee too.

My breakfast bagel with bacon was shockingly good. The scrambled egg was light and fluffy (and on the saltier side but thats okay with me) and the texture of the bagel is no joke. Straight up chewy and satisfying. Bacon oh so perfectly fried. Owner was also super nice.

The best bagels in Santa Cruz! I love their breakfast sandwiches and I think it’s totally worth the price. Highly recommend!
