Best bagels in Charleston! Friendly and helpful cashiers.

Great place, great staff, great food! Very happy with my stop here at Bagel Nation. Reminded me a bit of the bagel shops at home in New Jersey.

Good place. Closest thing to New York bagels. They just don’t know how to toast. Never can toast it long enough for anyone

Their bagels are so good and remind me of home but I really wish that when I’m asked how I’d like the bagel toasted I actually get it the way I requested. I asked for toasted dark on both sides and every time I never get it that way.

Literally, the best bagels in Charleston! The only criticism is that it does take a while to get your food, especially for a bagel shop.

Since moving here from Long Island, I've found most people think a bagel is just bagel-shaped bread. Nowhere was able to even come close to the kind of bagel you could get at any random deli every half mile on the island until I tried Bagel Nation. The bagels were fantastic, just like I'd been used to, and so worth passing every other bagel shop on the 20 minute drive over.

This was my first time at this location. I went on a Tuesday at 10:00 am.The cashier was very nice and helpful, especially when i said this was my first time. This place looks like a small business without the man power to keep the Karen’s happy. I enjoyed my bagel and it was a super quick wait time. It is sad reading the comments about the long wait time or “bad service”. This isn’t a McDonalds. Give them a break. The food and coffee were awesome. Besides, most of these people commenting don’t care about the workers or the establishment. Be a decent human being and they will be the same way back. Have patience and put yourself in their shoes.

Breakfast was so yummy. Asked for double cream cheese and they hooked it up for sure.

Waited quite awhile for my bagel, but the people in kitchen were working hard. The guy at the front counter was a hard worker and constantly cleaning etc. The girl on the other hand was epic pure LAZY- her star rating is 0! She filled the half n half and seeing that the counter was covered in spilled creamer- she just left it and went back to her phone. The guy noticed it and cleaned it up. I understand short staffing. But I would not be paying for a lazy employee.

Transplant from NJ here who has always been craving a good bagel down in SC. I think I found my spot. Got a bacon, egg and cheese with scallion cream cheese. Absolutely delightful!
