I was so excited to eat, I forgot to take a photo first!! And I'm usually a "camera eats first" type of person too. I have fond memories of waking up early and walking to the Berkeley location back when I lived there for college. The moment I heard that one opened here, I knew I had to come visit! I've always gotten the Classic and you can't go wrong with it. They're so generous with the lox (and it's so fresh and soft too). The cream cheese is decadent and the capers along with the raw onions provide a nice refreshing crunch. The bagel itself is so good -- it's the right amount of chewy and moist. It's not tough nor dry at all! Service was pretty quick and this location is in Town & Country, which is a really cute and cozy plaza with lots of parking. Just be careful if you want to check this place out on a weekday morning -- Palo Alto high school is right across the street, so traffic around 9am is quite bad. I'll be coming back soon and curious to check out their daily specials!

One of the best bagels I've had in a long time and it was heavyyy. Boichik really packs on the cream cheese and fillings nicely. The bagel was so thick I had to break it in half to eat. It was delicious. All the ingredients were really fresh. There is no indoor seating at this location but they have a couple tables outside.

Some solid bagels here. Large variety of bagel toppings- egg, lox, various spreads. The drip coffee was good too. Nice ambiance with outdoor seating.

Had a chance to try Boichik Bagels today - the Palo Alto one and Really enjoyed it! This place is located in a very busy plaza but it's nice because Trader Joe's is right near the plaza. Today when we went, there was a line out the door but thankfully it went by very quickly which was nice. For our order we tried the onion bagel with hatch chile cream cheese along with tomatoes and capers. This was a delicious well sized bagel with a nice amount of cream cheese. Every bite was wholesome and would definitely get this again! Overall great experience and delicious bagels!

I thoroughly enjoyed the bagel!! I ordered the everything bagel seasoning with plain cream cheese. We took it to-go and even though we ate it 20 minutes later, the bagel tasted extremely fresh! It was still warm, airy, and had a nice chew to it. I typically think most bagel places taste quite similar, but the taste was definitely impeccable! Overall, definitely recommend :-)

1/24/25 - Went here to show my friend the bagels and WOW I finally got to try it and it was amazing! I loved the seasoning on the everything bagel too! Combo I got was: everything bagel, plain cream cheese, nova salmon, and avocado

This is my second time trying Boichik Bagels and it's a decent bagel spot! This time I tried their Eggything bagel with plain cream cheese and it was pretty good! The bagel has a nice chewy texture and paired well with the cream cheese. I did get the bagel toasted, but I wish it was bit more toasted. Service was pretty quick. The place is a bit small, but they do have a few seats outside to enjoy your bagels.

It tastes good, but is expensive for what you get. I ordered a bagel sandwich with a toasted Eggything Bagel (egg bagel with everything seasoning) and chive shmear topped with lox, tomatoes, cucumbers, and capers. This came out to about $16. My order was ready in about 5 minutes. The bagel was still quite chewy with no crunch, so I wish it was a little more toasted. The portion was decently filling. There are a few tables and chairs outside, but most people take it to-go. Overall, I wouldn't mind coming back if I happen to be in Palo Alto while really craving bagels, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here otherwise.

These bagels are the closest I have had to true NY bagels on the west coast! I'm obsessed and can't stop coming back here. :) You really can't go wrong with anything, but my favorite is a salted, untoasted, bagel with chive cream cheese. I wanted to take a picture of my bagel this time, but I was too excited to eat it!
