A nice place. Our bagel was wonderful and the coffee fresh. The coffee shop was nicely decorated.

Bagels and BLTs so good. Best fuel for a slope day. Love the vibes.

These guys were hurting today. The reviews made them look so good and I was so disappointed. My brother and I stopped here to get quick breakfast. When we arrived, Sarah seemed kindof all over. Our breakfast took 15-20 to come out and we were told they ran out of syrup. (I got a waffle sandwich, and settled for jam instead. She offered to make me a latte for the substitute.

She bit off a bit more than she could chew, and 5 minutes later came the latte. She was dampening the experience of the incoming customers because of trying to do one thing at a time, and needing to ask for the next customers order 3 times.

Then we checked our breakfast and the meats were swapped, and my brother got sausage on his BLT…. Now 30 minutes have gone by and we could have just gone to Rosie’s. And the complimentary latte tasted worse than starbucks. SUPER unimpressed.

We spent the whole morning here getting some work done in our laptops and it's a great spot. Nice coffee and delicious gluten free bagels. The staff is great 👍

Couldn’t make a second review so I will edit my first one. Ordered a bacon egg cheese breakfast burrito. I was given a full egg burrito. Also another time I had called in an order. I get there they say it’s not ready so I sit there for 40 minutes and they hand me my Togo order that has been sitting there the whole time. Nobody gives a shyt about quality anymore other than the business owner themselves. Poor service wrong orders and wasted time just to name a few. Will not be giving them another chance 👎🏼

Beautiful location, and the shop itself is really Eclectic. But being a huge coffee lover , I’m sorry this was the worst I’ve ever had. First tried to order something on the menu but they didn’t have it anymore , second thing I tried to order was the same. Then my daughter went to order something and they also didn’t have it..so finally we both in a rush just ordered something basic. I ended up just ordering a mocha and a americano for my mom . Both were watered down. The mocha was almost clear , I had to add sugar as well as cream from the side bar . Just tasted like water with sugar and cream… was disappointing, because we woke up really needing coffee for a long drive back home.. I hate complaining but the price we paid for this was unbelievable. I can say the staff was very kind and friendly, and the shop itself was very clean. Maybe we just came in a bad day? I don’t know.. just won’t be back here anytime for coffee.

Was going to eat across the street but walked here instead. Order a great coffee and a breakfast burrito. I was blown away. Food is really good and prices are very fair. People are friendly and the service was great. I will definitely come back and support this place. Great family environment and they even had live music in the back seating area. More of gourmet vibes at a great price. Also a great selection of coffee and bagels.

Syd’s Bagelery is such a very nice spot for bagels, sandwiches, coffee and so much more. The atmosphere is just so very nice and the help are all so sweet. It is truly the nicest spot to stop for a relaxing breakfast or lunch. I think I have tried all the coffee and sandwich spots from Tahoma to Tahoe City, and I suggest you enjoy the ambience, a cup of coffee and so much more.

This place has a chill vibe, nice view of the Lake and delicious coffee and food. The front service was very helpful and accommodating. Very clean bathroom and open patio, covid safe environment. I also appreciate establishments that pour coffee in my to-go cup. Thank you for promoting efficient reusable and recycling habits! Thank you Syd’s.
