Odelay Bagel

This is a friendly local business with great coffee and bagels! For lunch I’ve enjoyed a bagel sandwich with turkey and bacon, and recommend it. I look forward to going back.

Their Black Pepper Parmesan Bagel with Italian Herb & Chive Cream Cheese is a heavenly combo! Even better when you add the lox, tomato and capers.

Have been here several times and love it! Fast service, convenient location and the bagels are great! They also serve breakfast sandwiches which are very good. The atmosphere is relaxed with an urban feel, very comfortable. You can bring your dogs to sit out on the patio with you. Quaint and cool! Oh, and the coffee is GOOD!

My eggs, bacon and ham was heat up in a microwave. The eggs were hard and the bagel was soggy for some reason. Overall I’m not going back. It was gross. I only decided to try it because the bagel man was closed

Awesome hole in the wall bagel shop. Great homemade bagels, cream cheese and lox. My wife and I have been to bagel shops all over az and this is by far our favorite. Everything is consistently good and the people are always extremely friendly and fast.

Wow! This place is great! We live just down the street but had never made it here. We happened to be up early so stopped in. Their staff is VERY friendly (but not in an annoying way). We ordered bacon, egg, and cheese bagel sandwiches and they were so good! I wish I had ordered a plain bagel too because I could tell from my sandwich that their bagels are awesome and I wish I could have tried just that too. The bagel was slightly fluffy, chewy, and delicious. They were making another batch when we came in so that’s pretty cool. Prices were reasonable and I loved the décor and general feel of the place. It feels relaxed and calming. Highly recommend!

I tried Odelay last week cause it’s on my way to work and I wanted to find a great local breakfast spot to pick up every now and then. This is not the place. I had such great hopes for it when I walked in the door. They have a great vibe going on and prices aren’t too outrageous but once I got to work and pulled my toasted Asiago bagel with plain cream cheese out I found a half toasted and half blackened rock! The guy completely burnt my bagel and instead of making a new one he just tried to cover it with cream cheese and hide it in the foil. I tried to scrape it off but it was burnt so much the whole thing tasted like licking an ashtray. I can’t believe they would serve a bagel like this! It went in the trash along with my hopes for a great new breakfast stop. I will stick with my A.J.‘s tea and bagel from now on. It’s a little out of my way but it’s much better priced and never burnt to ash!

Great neighborhood place!

Great atmosphere at Odelay! Ryan is awesome and super friendly. The Bagel Man was closed today and we wanted a bagel. Happy to have found a new local place to try. Espresso was fantastic and bagels were awesome!

I would give it 6 stars but they only let you give 5. This place puts einstiens and bagelnosh to shame. On top of that they are playing David Bowie only today in tribute. I spilled my drink and it went all over the table the floor and my sandwich. The staff was super polite about it and not only did they make me a new drink but also a new sandwich! Great food, coffee and service!

Wanted to go since they opened. Have known the owner, Ryan, since he was a kid. Motto tell u, this place has awesome lattes !!! And we split a bagel own face Sammie that was ncredible. Not the heavy, doughy bagel u get at some places… light and soooo tasty! My daughter n law and I split this huge, oh so yummy Brie and ham Asiago bagel with sliced apples on top! Incredible! I have newel ever been a fan of bagel sandwiches. This blew my mind and changed my mimd. Go odelay!

Okay, I’ll admit it, I Really like this place. Ordered two dozen bagels for Thanksgiving and everybody in our family was impressed. But then I ventured to the most flavorful combination yet. Jalapeño/​cheddar bagel split and toasted with bacon/​horseradish cream cheese. I know what you’re thinking, but don’t judge till you chew. The Jalapeño flavor is not in your face, but somehow a smooth deep background flavor in the bagel that is full of flavor with gentle warmth. That same careful integration of flavor applies to the cream cheese, and together, amazing. My family went GaGa over the veggie cream cheese on just about everything, and the young kids came to blows over the cinnamon raisin bagels. Big mistake not to have a couple more of those. Awesome job. Genuine, real deal.

I’m really loving this place. It just has a great vibe and the food is simple, unique and delicious. Bagel and lox is my favorite. The service is friendly and personable.
And the coffee? I’m an espresso drinker and a double shot in a ceramic cup is always consistent and good.
It’s kind of out of the way if you don’t live in Ahwatukee but if you’re looking for a chill place to spend few quality minutes, this place will deliver.

Great bagels, great coffee!
Food:
Ryan, the owner, is fanatic about his product! He takes great pride in his coffees and teas, and especially his bagels. And it’s justified! The bagels are hand-​made on the premises each day. My favorite is the jalapeño cheddar bagel with horseradish bacon smear. Excellent!
Cost:
Very reasonable.
Service:
Ryan and his staff are always smiling and friendly. And fast at filling orders.
Atmosphere:
Casual. Very casual.
Overall:
I agree with other reviewers, this is probably the best bagel shop in Ahwatukee. It’s a bit off the beaten path, but head on over, you won’t be disappointed!

Deliciousness! Applies to coffee, bagels, and smears. I have not yet been since additional food items have been added to the menu, but am very much looking forward to checking out the new menu offerings!
Current favorite smear is the Italian Herb. I love the unique flavors of smears!
Coffee is amazing, even the decaf!!!
Bagels are super fresh.
I hope they do well in the location. Even knowing how good the food and coffee is, on the days when time is short and I need to get to work quickly, I choose an alternative venue due to the proximity. If it was located along 48^th Street, I’d be there every morning!!!

What an awesome bagel shop. I think this bagel shop could be the revitalization, the shopping center at the bottom of Equestrian needs. It has a very hip environment, and the owner Ryan and staff are easy going, fun loving people, that help make the atmosphere. Odelay is exactly the type of shop that Ahwatukee needs more of.
The quality of the bagel is impressively crafted, with a crunch to the outer shell and a nice fluffy inside. I go at lunch time and their tea and turkey bagel sandwich is incredible… I’ve been to Odelay Bagel for 4 days straight this week. If you are a local resident and you want more spots like this, come and show your patronage.
*They are still new and still figuring out processes so the service is a little on the slow side. So don’t go if you’re in a big rush. But give them some time and they will have that ironed out for sure.

What a disappointment! The bagel man was closed so I came here as it was just down the street. The cashier was HORRIBLE it seemed like I was an inconvenience. They couldn’t print a receipt and their credit card reader didn’t work. The bagels were waaaaaaaay over priced for a bacon egg and cheese bagel. I almost walked out when I noticed the guy behind the counter making the eggs in the microwave! My hunger pains and lack of time caused me to stay. I haven’t taken my first bite and I already hate everything about this experience… ugh hopefully their food is not as shitty as their service or I am in for a horrible Monday breakfast.
Update: As expected the sandwich was HORRIBLE!!! There was enough pepper to kill a small child. The egg tasted bland and the bagel was nothing to be excited about. If I could give some negative stars I totally would. What a waste of $ 5.14!!!

Super excited to try a new locally owned bagel joint. Arriving at Odelay, it’s clear that some thought was put into all the design and esthetics. Outside is a large water cooler that is solely there to fill the large dog water bowl below– as a dog person I think that is super rad, +3 points Odelay.
Entering the business and you see a beautiful rustic wood wall and other great design elements.
As I waited in line, I observed the employee at the counter struggling to get the iPad to accept the credit card payment of the customer ahead of me. For about ten minutes she tried to run the card and it wouldn’t take. The customer was clearly getting annoyed (understandably) and I felt bad for the employee, as it’s not her fault that the system was buggy. I was trying to send the employee an ESP message to offer the customer a free coffee or comp one of the bagels– something to make up for the very long delay. But nothing. When the customer finally got her order she was clearly unhappy and left the place quickly. I can guarantee that a free coffee or bagel for her would have made a lifelong customer, but I bet she never returns.
When it’s my turn I order a half dozen bagels and a single serve side of butter. I’m charged $ 10.84. I pay and don’t really think about it, but then realize I just paid $ 3.00 for a tiny side of butter. That is insane, because that’s the price of half dozen and a decent side of cream cheese. So a tiny side of butter is the same price as a large cream cheese here somehow?
Getting home– the bagels were better than average, but a bit undercooked. Strangely– there seemed to be a million sesame seeds on each bagel– but none of them wanted to remain on the bagel. Weird.
Overall this place is better than Einsteins, but not as good as Chompie’s. I highly suggest some front of house training to learn how to fix little mistakes and ensure you don’t lose customers. There is a lack of communication between the cashier and prep staff. It seemed as though the employee didn’t know what to charge for a tiny butter, so I ended up paying the same price as I would have for a decent sized cream cheese. I wish them all the best, but for me this place is one and done.

Very good bagels. Great selection of cream cheeses. I had the bacon/​horseradish which was good. The menu is very limited but if you’re in the mood for a bagel and coffee, you’re in luck.
The bagel and lox was priced well and delicious. It was $ 6.50 I believe. An individual bagel will run you about $ 2.50 with cream cheese. There are numerous coffee/​tea selections. The coffee is really good but priced a bit high.
I’m happy to have this option for a quick breakfast in Ahwatukee and look forward to going back.

This is a great independent Bagel and Coffee place! I love this place! Bagels made fresh! The Lox and Bagels are the bomb! Owner Ryan is very friendly and personable! Support local Ahwatukee!

Definitely one of the best bagel places in town. I overheard them say they boil their bagels, (old school!) which would certainly make a favorable difference.
I’ve only been in a couple times and both times ordered the bagel and lox. The bagel was perfectly chewy and super fresh and they gave a generous amount of salmon with a huge slice of tomato and plenty of cream cheese. (it also comes with onion but I got it without) It was so delicious and actually quite filling.
The girl working the counter, Heaven, was very nice and welcoming — a real pleasure to talk to. Such a nice change from the places where the person behind the counter barely looks at you.
This is the kinda place where it would be easy to become a «regular.» A great addition to the Phoenix bagel scene! (If that’s a thing — ha!)

So happy that we’ve found this place! Our family loves it! Good coffee, amazing bagels, and the staff is always so welcoming. Plan to make it a part of our normal routine

Funny story how I ended up going to Odelay Bagel Company. I was at a local Irish Bar last night and met the owner though and found out he had started up this place only a few months ago. He noted that he had to be up and making bagels at 2 am (baker’s hours indeed!). I promised I would come by this morning and check it out. Well, I’m glad I did, he has a lovely establishment and a great selection of freshly made bagels. I bought both the black pepper Parmesan and the Jalapeño cheddar bagels and also the bacon and horseradish and the Italian herbs and chives smear. I also had a chance to say high to the owner again who had indeed, been up early, making all the bagels in the bagel bins.
The bagel type he makes reminds me of Noah’s bagels that I’ve had in Los Angeles, being more of the lighter style of bagel versus the extremely chewy New York style of bagel. The nice thing, certainly makes them easier to slice when you get home (though you can get them toasted and smeared at the establishment.
I noticed that you can also get your bagel with Lox (sorry, not a huge fan of the smoked fish on a bagel but I know many people love it) and the establishment also makes a nice array of coffee based drinks (the store has an espresso machine) and teas, and they have fresh brewed iced tea.
I will say I certainly look forward to going back and trying some of the other bagels and it’s nice to see someone successfully starting and running his own business who obviously knows what he’s doing. Oh, when you drive up, the signage above the story says «Bagels & Coffee» — the name of the business is on the glass window so you know, that is the place.
My only request, think about a peppercorn potato bagel — it’s my favorite one at Noah’s in California. Looking forward to my next visit and hearing more of the owner’s story about how he got into the bagel business — I only heard a bit of it at the Irish bar but it sounds fascinating.
P. S. — he also employees extremely nice and well-​mannered kids from the local high school so when you support this place, you not only get some great bagels and coffee but you support a local business that provides work opportunities for young people in the community, so a win-​win all the way around.;-)

Really not a fan of this place. The bagels are overpriced and lower quality than you’d get from a grocery store. I’ve tried a few different options and nothing was good. The salt bagel tasted more like blueberry, the everything bagel might as well be an onion bagel, and the cinnamon raisin bagels are basically a plain bagel with a faint hint of flavor. They’re dense and chewy. If these are fresh, they probably need to figure out a better plan because they seem stale compared to a truly fresh bagel.
I wanted to like this place as it’s within walking distance of my house but there are quite a few options nearby that are better. They should probably just stick to coffee but that’s overpriced and nothing special too.

Coffee is amazing! Jalapeño cheddar bagel with garlic Sriracha cream cheese is the jam!

Great tasting fresh bagels with exceptional espresso! Had am everything bagel with lox, was not disappointed at all with this price point. The owner is fun and talkative, outdoor seating, and hipster-​esque interior are welcome additions to this quiet location near hiking and biking trails.

This place recently opened up down the street from my house and I’m loving it so far! The cold brewed coffee and freshly made bagels are amazing. The staff is very friendly and inviting. The décor inside is awesome and feels comfortable, you could definitely hang out here while enjoying your bagel and coffee.
Side note: I definitely recommend the Asiago bagel with Italian herb and chive cream cheese and their delicious cold brewed coffee.
Keep up the great work guys!
