Backstreet Bagel Company

We came across this place on our way to Colorado Springs and we’re glad that we did. They had the Best bagel sandwiches we have had for a while. They have so many options and you can customise and build your own too. Staff was really helpful and patient. Their coffees and drinks are amazing as well. They have plenty of items for vegetarian and vegan diet as well.

Edit: I guess I should be more clear... I grew up in New York City, the land of beautiful bagels and have been a pastry chef my entire adult life. This is not a wonderful bagel, it is not close. You will not convince me otherwise. The most authentic thing about this bagel is you all being defensive about it like a New Yorker instead of taking the constructive criticism and offering your customer kindness to their review.

I have been on a mission to find a reasonable bagel anywhere on the Western slope for weeks. I assumed that a place that does not even make bagels would knock it out of the park. They did not. It was okay but I would call them rather hard and difficult to chew through. Not exactly a great bagel 😔

Stopped for breakfast in a horrible snowstorm! Breakfast bagels and coffee were so delicious before making our way home. Thank you.

We went twice during our 2 day stay in Montrose! Very friendly staff and AMAZING food! The jalapeño cream cheese was to die for! Highly recommended!

I have never been here before. Called in ordered 2 with smears. Ready in 15min. Get there go in there is a line. After a couple of minutes line isn't moving I go up to one of staff, see was making drinks. I told here I had order buy phone. See asked if I had paid I stated I hadn't been asked! So back to the end of the line. Luckily no one had came in.
I'm standing there thinking I'm over 50 should have know to ask to pay on the phone, oh well. Stand look at there menu, and I hear my. What is this , a lady said give her my card she'll ring me up in the back. She comes back with bagels. I forgot my glasses, I ask her how much it is it was the price of 1 of the bagels. She turned to do something. Without missing a beat. I paid for the free bagel and my normal good service tip. 20% She turn picked up the receipt and said thank you. I say the thanks in her demeanor. This shows even short staffed you can still give outstanding service.
THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE 👍

Been eating here ever since they opened. Food, staff is amazing and it's a cozy little place to enjoy some food in.

Been coming here for a couple of years and love the place. It takes a long time but whatever. The last 3 or 4 times however, I've ordered some bagels and waited about 30 minutes for them to be literally put in a bag. I don't care, and I thought it was just because they were busy. My mother is visiting and she's gone there twice this week and both times she's ordered a dozen bagels and after half an hour she had not received any bagels. When she goes back to check, they say they're all out because they sold them all. When she ordered they had every bagel she asked for. One after another they were sold while she was waiting and by the time the bagger came to bag the bagels they were out. I thought this just happened to me, but apparently this happens to my mother as well. Boo..

Edit: leaving a 4 star review because of the thoughtful response. I don't want to be a Karen, I would just like to be... Ugh I don't have words. I'm sorry.

The cashier handled the empty coffee cups pinching the top of the cup with her hands inside the empty cup. When I kindly asked for a different cup since her hands had been inside that one (this is the cashier who has been handling all the money), she was beside herself that I would ask. In the end I don't think the cup was actually changed (I watched it being made), and instead they dismissed the idea that I would want a clean cup. I'm curious what the health department thinks of this place.

Best place for breakfast in Montrose! My green chile bagel was perfect, and the spiced apple Chai tea was delicious.

We stopped here for breakfast before heading into Black Canyon, the food and coffee were both excellent. Our bagels were fresh, my bacon egg and cheese bagel was made with quality ingredients. A must stop!
