This Is It Bakery & Deli

UPDATE: Closes on 29 May 2021 The Owners are retiring..., I wish them good fortune and cheer. I will greatly miss "This Is It." The BEST on Island. I will really miss Rossi - thank you for always treating me like Ohana. Bam! A good bagel place in Honolulu. Best part - they even serve bialys!!! I have been searching for a decent bakery made bagel and have found the place. Get there early!!! If you want your choice of bagels - get there by 7:00 am - otherwise, the pickings get slim as the day goes on. They staff is smart to do this to ensure quality control. Update - The best around. And even better, they have strict controls to ensure customer safety. Best part of my day is stopping by here.

Mazel Tov! Was craving a Brooklyn bagel and found this tucked into a warehouse in Kakaako. Really good everything bagel 🥯. Besides bagels they have breakfast sandwiches, bialys, and flavored cream cheese! I got the cinnamon raisin cc and it was loaded with yellow and brown raisins, and nuts! So friggin good! This is making me hungry.

The name of the place says it all... If your looking for a sandwich joint/ bakery look no further because this is it Bakery has it all. Their breakfast sandwiches are delicious and crafted with care. They are always worth the wait. Burgers and lunch sandwiches are made fresh when ordered. Packaging of the sandwiches are fine. Always a great place to grab breakfast on the go or on your way to work. Swing on by and support your local businesses!!

I live on the Big Island now and as one might imagine, it's nearly impossible to find a decent bagel let alone one made into a sandwich!!! When I came to Honolulu on business last week, literally the 1st place I made a B-line for was THIS IS IT for a Sesame bagel with Turkey & provolone (with all the fixin's of course!) It was sooooo good (like always :) I should've brought one more to take back to home with me! YUM!

I was a bagel refugee for a long time Honolulu. After several disappointing experiences with bagel exploration, I was convinced that the best option I could have in Honolulu was to get a bulk of Einstein bros bagels from Costco. I heard about This is It from my longtime Honolulu resident who also used to live in D.C, so my expectation was inevitably pretty high. Their bagels come in irregular cute plump forms, relatively smaller than an average size. I went with a poppy seed bagel with sun-dried tomato cream cheese and breakfast sandwich with eggs and Portuguese sausages. I never had such a sundried tomato-y cream cheese before, it was soooo good!! My husband had a everything bagel, which was not too salty but had good garlic and onion flavor. We loved it! I bought energy bagel at my second visit, which had quinoa, raisin, and walnuts. So far, my fav is poppyseed only because I love this kind too much. We’ve only tried sundried tomato and lox cream cheese, but other flavors look delicious as well! Service is pretty quick in spite of how busy they get. Out of two times we went, the same two ladies were working so hard and kept the place neat and efficient.
