Bagel Me! Not Just for Bagels Anymore…

If you ever find yourself in the mood for bagels, but its lunch time, I have just the place. ‘Bagel Me!’ with its many OC locations, my favorite being in the Orange Circle, has a great variety on their lunch menu including smoothies, salads, bagel sandwiches, and surprisingly amazing burgers! Of course, their breakfast is tasty too having almost an infinite supply of cream cheese flavors for your pleasure.

Omelette & Cottage Fries

Friendly staff and plenty of tables inside and out make this place feel at home, just hand over the coffee to let me enjoy the nice day out in sunny California. As for the food, each morning their assortments of bagels are made fresh at each location. This makes creating your sandwich or bagel melt quite simple. Just start off with a bagel, the toppings you want, or just check out the menu’s choices. If you’re looking for something spicy, choose the cheese jalapeno bagel, sweet, get a Glazer bagel, or take the healthier route with a multigrain bagel. They are pretty customizable too, thinking it has too much dough for a sandwich, no problem; just ask them to scoop out the middle. Wallah, one tasty sandwich, bagel chips and a side of homemade cinnamon baked apples ready to go.

As I said before, their burgers are amazing! Mouth-watering, get messy, split in half and share it kind of burger. Plus something about the cottage fries (small circular French fries) with a side of ranch or
ketchup just hits the spot. Ordering up a Bacon Avocado Cheeseburger topped with Tillamook cheddar, lettuce, tomato, pickles, homemade super sauce and the added caramelized onions as my personal finishing touch comes out towering high held together by a toothpick. Splitting it or not, cut this colossal burger in half unless you plan on getting messy, a classic sign of a good meal.

So next time you’re craving a bagel, get your grub on at Bagel Me!
